What holds me back..


~ You want me to attain Nirvana,
A bliss from the world's odds and blacks,
But how do you suppose me to do that?
Its your love that ties me back ~

Indrajit said...

Very powerful lines... and matured portrayal of Nirvana,..

My view-

'Your love' - is it indicating the love towrds God?

When u merge with the Beloved Almighty, transcending all boundaries so much so tht u and ur Beloved God is one, whr none but pure Love exists, I think tht is whr Nirvana begins...Unconditioned.. tht is whr the absolute state of Immortalisd Bliss arised and merges dissolving the boundaries betwn the Lovers (Lovers means the female and her Beloved i.e God- A Sufi concept)......


Love wil not always be tying back in Nirvana. It leads to that Utopian state...


Another view---
It can be a state of mind, which one can achieve even in love betw 2 mortals.


Tc... n keep penning.. :)

Indrajit said...

P.S
Arise shd be the word above not arised..
Typo ;; :p

WarmSunshine said...

d gypsy! said...

was just reading ur blog name list

half of them,it seems to me are alrdy been taken and i wanna ask, why do u actually wanna change it?

this four liner is well done,but I usually think nirvana is another form of love and love of nir...unless u mean weed..hah!

and nice words!

Rakesh said...

But If somebody loves you, why would he want you to attain Nirvana???

Keshi said...

ty for ur recent comment in my blog Crystal :). HUGS!

However I dun think I'll blog again sweetie..not the same way anyways. Cos, something died in me...and my Instincts told me that Im done in Blogville. And I never go against my Instincts. Besides, i do what I WANT to do..not what I HAVE to do. And right now, I dun wanna blog. I hope u u'stand. Cos alot of ppl were disappointed, called me this n that, judged my decisions from their point of view, made me feel like I was not worth knowing after all. All the good times we've had in blogville suddenly seemed nothing to them. That really baffles me tho.

But I know u wud u'stand what Im trying to say. Hopefully. :) If I ever blog again, u wud be one of the first to know. Always know u made a huge difference in my life thru ur posts and ur genuine friendship. Just cos I stopped blogging it doesnt mean our friendship stopped too, altho some ppl seem to think that way...and hv altogether stopped 'knowing' me.

See u when i see u next then. MWAH and all the best!

Keshi.

The Rat... said...

Cяystal said...

@ TPo,
Nirvana like marriage is a part of life, and one of the most important one too! So its like essential to take it up for once, and it is human, okay? =D =P
And thankyou for the template..meworkedhard :)

Cяystal said...

@ Mayz,
People say a phoenix rises from ash..and hence, we all carry hope on the tip of our heart..and live with expectations of attaining Nirvana :-)

Cяystal said...

# Abhinav,
Aur kya! tumhare liye hi toh prem patra likha tha =)

Cяystal said...

# Anurag,
Gratias =)

Cяystal said...

# The Poet Manque,

Want me to add it to my poem,do you? =)

Cяystal said...

# Indrajit,,
Nope, my friend. It was a serenade to a person who you admire, and he wants you to leave him and attain other things of supreme bliss, but you on the other hand find it difficult to leave his own unconditional love which he gives you, and Nirvana is a far fetched dream.

That was the idea I had..
" tu chahta hai mai mukt ho jaau,
Aisa ho sakta hai ki mai tere prem ko chhod chala jau?

Cяystal said...

Its okay! Don't worry ! =P

Cяystal said...

# Mehreen,

=)
Aww, thats such a great compliment. I always prefer few words than writing at length, because its really tough for me to cut it short if I write a long poem or story.. but thankyou so much.. and you write even more well!

Cяystal said...

# D Gypsy,
Longed for a change..thats why. Somehow its a bit emo..my current blog get up and all..but hey, which of these are already taken? haven't seen any by these names !..
and nirvana..lol..whatever you suppose it as!

Cяystal said...

# Tinni,
I want it since so long! Mr.God doesn't listten to me ever! =(

Cяystal said...

# Yamini,
Yippiee. thankyouverymuch! =)

Cяystal said...

# Raka,
Lol..yes,baby! I love writing about things which aren't much talked abt.

Cяystal said...

And thanks.

Cяystal said...

# Sawan,
No no..if you look at it from another persepective, it isn't all that saddie saddie type..I'm good infact great, don't cha worry! =)

Gratias!

Cяystal said...

# Rakesh,
Doesn't it say "you" want me to attain nirvana?..hence..the person loved doesn't want me anymore..and wants me to fly away, but I find it difficult because its his love that ties me back. Okay?

Cяystal said...

# Keshi,
Oh God. I'm glad I saw a comment of yours, after sucha long time ! Muah!
And *sigh*..I know you're one maverick like me, and on a formal note, going against your instinct is wrong.
BUT.. if your instinct was affected by what some people said, and wrongly judged you according to what you wrote, its a sheer waste of time to pay any heed to
them..'cos if you know you're good inside, then you shouldn't give a damn to losers. I've seen so many blogfriends who left because people poked their heads and said all sort of wrong things. BUt come on, everyone has a diff. perspective over every single thing, when the views match, the frienship goes, and if it doesn't, one person lost is okay ! And people change, maybe not intentionally, but due to circumstances, but we have to learn to move on. Jut last year i had a horrible fight with some great friends of mines, due to misconceptions, but then, they've forgotten me,and m still trying to do so , and "moving on".. we never kill a path if a thorn plucks us, right? Love you loads.. tc

And be happy with the people who know you. trust you.. and care for you.

*Big bear hug!*

Cяystal said...

The Rat,
"Love which lasts the longest is the love is not returned". =)
What if its one sided, and the other wants to get rid of you?..then ..you have to leave the moh-maaya and move towards the path to Blis..

Cяystal said...

# Daydreamer,
Me and in love?..that's like a LOL moment ! =D..
Nopsey..i ain't..I assure you!
This was pure fiction !

Cяystal said...

And oh yes..nirvana has to be attained in everyone's life at one point or the other. =)

Cяystal said...

# Smriti,
Don't worry! you wun have to search for it.. you always get it.."luck by chance" types ;)..
And yup..the blog mode is grim, but m trying to add some joy with new blog name suggestions..go vote on the poll in the right side of the page!

Cяystal said...

# Joie,

=)

Cяystal said...

# Arv,
Happiness doesn't come with nirvana alone..soo many things can make it happen!..=)

But we can keep pondering over the genuine reason for our happiness..cun me? =D

Cяystal said...

@ Sphinx,
Wow. Thankyou very much !

comfortably numb said...

petty little things like love n emotions will always cause a hindrance but strong is the soul which can overcome these trivialities and attain enlightenment:D
but then many may say that nirvana is in those trivialities itself:)
I knw...its all so damn confusing!!!

Leo said...

four lines of beauty! :)

Cяystal said...

# Peter,
Koi ho toh batau! Pure fiction :'(

Cяystal said...

# MultiMenon,
Exams and rocking time? Oxymoronic statement! =P
They were good..except for CHEMISTRY and COMPUTER. *faints*

Cяystal said...

# Hp,
When you love someone and the other doesn't, and wants you to leave him, then it does

Cяystal said...

# Ankita,
There you go! You got my feelings right, thats what I wanted to say.=)
When you want to opt out of a relationship from someone who you really love,(and he doesn't return the love so heartily) then opting out f that love is really tough.
Gratias !

Cяystal said...

# Comfortably Numb,
I can get the tit bits, go on! =P
But you got my feelings right, that's exactly how my sentiments on the tpoic are :)

Cяystal said...

# Leo ,
Aah! Gratias !
