This is my state when I came know news touching to two extreme facets of creation, in a gap of an hour. Yes, the two extremes of death and birth. Death of my friend, another friend been blessed with a baby boy.
One of my friends met with an accident on 15th of Aug, was hospitalized, and he left his last breath in the late hours of 16th Aug. Given that his marriage was scheduled on 25th Aug, its even more painful. I only pray, he realizes his soul (if not already) atleast in his next birth.
To the other extreme, another friend was blessed with a baby boy, during the early hours of 16th Aug. Again, I can only pray, the new born realizes himself in this birth and breaks the cycle.
Both these incidents, though happened with some time gap, came to me within a hour of difference. As of now, my mind is going vary with weird feelings unable to express itself, feeling both pain and happiness or may be neither of them. I can't even say.
The most weird part is, I am here, still writing this blog, dont know what this means!! May be I am still with the false ego (this post is filled with words 'I', 'me', 'my') that I am gonna live forever and, I am above life and death. My brain does understand that success and failure are both, sides of the same coin. But even after watching so many births and deaths of various living beings around it, it does not understand that life and death are merely two points in the journey of realizing the self. My brain is really really dumb.
