post but just loved it ,as if someone expressed my feelings in words
One of my convent school friend’s post 👇🏻
Growing up in a secure home and neighbourhood of mixed cultures, I have only learnt to embrace every human around without feeling the need to berate someone else's faith or force anyone to accept mine. From the Christmas trees I have decorated, hyms I sang, 'gale milna' & gorging on yummy Eid ki biryani and sewaiyaa, doing Guru NanakJap of Ajai Alai (i still do every morning!), doing my prayers, singing bhajans and also loving my Rumi & Ghalib reads, all with equal fervour, i have come to believe that a spiritually enabled human will never be insecure and unsafe to touch the god consciousness within and express it unapologetically!
Rama is not just a form and warrior, as frivolously mocked by many; it is deeper, it is the consciousness and vibration of the परब्रह्म and he is present in all, without exceptions, whether they believe in it or not!🙂
A dear friend Radhika Rastogi writes this wonderful post and I can't help but sharing it. Resonate with it to T. Radhika says: "For the last couple of days, I thought several times about expressing my happiness over Ram Lalla 's mandir coming up in Ayodhya and for the Praan Pratishtha due soon. But I was hesitant. As an educated, peace loving Hindu i have been conditioned to believe that expression about my religion wreaks bigotry and too much association with my religion makes people perceive me in poor light. While several other religions co existed happily around us...and i am glad. For example i sang in school choir for Nativity play, played Mother Mary holding Jesus in manger. When I started working, some of my colleagues, openly spread their mats in office, when there was call for prayer while offices accommodated and allocated them some place for following their religion. While i am happy my brethren felt free enough to openly express and follow their religion in public in our country, I was always hesitant to be ostentatious about my religious practices and reserved it only for home or temple. Today , however I feel easy and free to do so ..... Congratulations to all Hindus world wide, we brought him home!
I delved a little more and realised, that times have changed for better. While i am happy to co exist with all, I am not overly cautious of hurting someone unknowingly by just following my religion with no harm to them. Equal world indeed ..... and hence in my loudest voice I go:
Jai Shree Ram 🙏❤️"
Indeed Jai shri Ram❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏, and may i be blessed with heightened consciousness and nirvana as I keep walking this path of energetic existence❤️ and may everyone be blessed with resonating with the higher consciousness beyond biases and resentment.
