The world seemed to be dual
It was good and equally evil
It's reality was lost in illusion
Till the date many lives in confusion
Of either wrong or right
And spend the life from dark in search of bright side

The Duality of Love 🖤♥️
Love can
Hurt, sting
Break, shatter
Consume, abuse
Take advantage of
And then some
Love can
Burn, kill
Cut, misuse
Control, crush
It can suffocate
And then some
And yet, faith testifies that…
Love can
Nurture and nourish
Enlighten and encourage
Inspire and bring sunshine
Heal and restore
Love can
Mend and reconcile
Bring tenderness and truth
Patience and mercy
Grace and laughter
This is the view of love’s duality
This is the reality of its perspective
No assumption here 🤍
©theswordandtherose20219 0Life began wrapping its arms around death. The light began wrapping its arms around the darkness. At that moment, the duality ceased for some time, and the creation's heart skipped a beat.

What a beautiful world
Of duality we live in/
Where there's sorrow /
There's a shoulder too

The Devil
What a better way for man to hide
behind this marker modified reflection in the glass with two horns drawn on loosely
But the very ideas they cast out to be so against were the principles that they were systematically building a legacy of lies upon
An absolute reflection of what they saw in themselves and what they wanted to conceal from on every level possible
To condemn generations to an eternity of sightless eyes
Compressed between the paper hands prayers
Paper hands burning as they stretch out to the sky in terror
Only to fill the books with their pages
And the martyred dry up like the ink did in their story
Man has immobilized lies to assimilate themselves like dust in between pages containing their fitted words for you to admire their innovations
The anger and rage that boils into my heart and out of my worried eyes
When now to us they have lied
But now it seems to be getting to the core of my contemplation
and ideas become weaponized like tiny tanks as if to kill off this evil they have rid themselves of
While they commit wrongdoings under the cloak of a false identity
“The Devil”
They fully diminish responsibility and protect their dark affairs they cheapen the people of their truth
We give people a shred of truth like mangled bait
Only to rip truth from hungry hands and consume it in a dark obscurity of history books and genocides
The biggest robbery of all time occurred over generations
When did we split off from our nature only to be protecting the worst parts of it while leaving the beautiful parts wither off in the sun dried petals turned to blackened ash
and deem those with a conscience
The eternally forgiving equally met with the eternally brutal an ocean of desperation
An ocean of us
©devilfish8 0Dual physiognomy (part 1)
Nowadays,there are many twofold profile
Having bane mindsets and forgery profile
Infront of me they imitate like well wishers
But behind on my backbone they are back bitters
And, I am notable who is with me and who's not
Even so, I am controlling my notions but actually not

I am hurting and evolving at the same time. Will I break further or will I shine ?

Nightmare
Wrapped in fading muslin cloths
Concealed from this heinous world
But externally competently coated in gold
And laden with strings of pearls
I lie covered in stagnant stanzas of prose
And blinded by magnificent metaphors
Rooted deeply to the dreams I once had
Safe from external preying predators
It is so embedded - this false bravado
This knowledge that I cannot be harmed
Since I live cocooned in a warped web
Away from all contemptuous scorn
It is my nightmare to one day meet the person
Whose personality I extrinsically imbibe
Whose flaws are inherently ingrained
Whose massive clout is just a bunch of lies
I live a life of extreme duality with
Two different faces like day and night
Where the confident exterior is thrust forward
And the childlike interior pushed out of sight
What could possibly be more daunting
Than saying there is a constant war
Between a calm but constantly cloaked self
And a superficiality that leaps out the door
Wrapped in fading muslin cloths
Concealed from this heinous world
I lie still without the courage to get up and face
The part of me that has outwardly unfurled

द्वंद
मन का द्वंद,
छिड़ा है कबसे...
चेहरे का रंग,
उड़ा है कबसे...
हाल-बेहाल,
हार-जीत,
कहने को सब,
जग की रीत...
पर जग भी मुझसे
देखो, रूठा है कबसे...
हाँ जानता हूँ, उम्मीद है,
सही होगा, आगे जीत है।
पर ये हार का वक्त,
मुझसे पूछे...
क्यों रोता है कबसे
भ्रम पाल रखे हैं जब से
विश्वास किया किसी पर तब से
अपेक्षाओं और
उपेक्षाओं में जंग
शायद छिड़ी है तबसे..
हाँ जानता हूँ, सब फ़िज़ूल है,
भरोसा ही सब धोखों का मूल है ।
अनमने ख्याल,
अनसुलझे सवाल,
उत्तरों में बस
बहानों के फ़ाल
पर ये उभरा हुआ सत्य
मुझसे पूछे...
जान के भी रहा अनजान कबसे
दिखा तुझे हर पल प्रमाण कबसे..

You and I
You and I,
Stars from the same sky.
Tears from the same sea,
You and me.
Like rays from the same sun,
You and I are now one.

Duality
So you want to seek peace in this duality driven Life?
Things that you go through are not lessons nor they are any achievements. You go through tough times to balance good and bad. Light and shadow, wrong and right, love and fear. To understand pain you have to go through it, now everyone asks why only ME? Because again it's related to YOU only. This world is relative. One thing can't exist without another. That's why quantum particles are called GOD particle. God exist independently
The source is the only ONE and we are just probabilities entangled in duality.
©mulberrymoon10 0Why bother with
The competition outside
Deep in the core
Lies the battle inside
It's a
Me vs me
A Jekyll and hyde
True and reflection
Battling it out
For the presence
To exist
Individually and proud
But the superficial ego
Is decisive
Says pretence is important
Than the beautiful reality
That is YOU
©maverickaish6 0ज्ञान ज्ञाता ?
अतीत में अनेक ऐसे ज्ञानी पुरुष होकर गए हैं जिन्होंने अपने जीवन के तमाम अनुभवों के बाद केवल यही कहा - "मैं इतना ही जानता हूं कि मैं कुछ नहीं जानता"। विश्व की विराटता का अनुभव करना और उसे अनुभव से जानना अपने आप में बहुत बेहद की आध्यात्मिक स्थिति है। हम साकार संसार में केवल एक या दो आयामी जीवन जीते हैं।यदि उत्कंठा हो तो अज्ञानी समझ सकता है। सही मायने में जो ज्ञानी होगा वह भी समझ सकता है। लेकिन जिन्हें ज्ञान की पराकाष्ठा के होने का भ्रम होगा वे नहीं समझ सकते।
मैं भी इस बात से सहमत हूं और मैं अपने बारे में भी यही कहता हूं कि :- "मैंने अब तक इतना ही जाना है कि मैं कुछ नहीं जानता"। प्रत्येक व्यक्ति भौतिक दुनिया में केवल उतना ही जानता है जितने से वह एक सीमित क्षेत्र में सीमित दायरे में अपनी व्यवस्था के अनुसार अपना काम चला लेता है। अपना काम भी वह कितनी बखूबी गुणवत्ता और सकारात्मकता से चला पाता है, उसमें भी हरेक नंबरवार होते हैं। लेकिन वह सब एक तरह से हमारा अल्प ज्ञान ही होता है।
हम अपने मन में ज्ञान के कुछ affirmation सोचते हुए अपने आपको कुछ कुछ अभ्यास के ढांचे में ढालते हैं। कुछ अपनी अपनी सीमा क्षमता के अनुसार अध्ययन मनन मंथन भी करते हैं। उससे लाभ तो होते हैं पर बहुत सीमित ही। इसका यह अर्थ नहीं होता कि हम affirmation या अध्ययन मनन मंथन से सर्वज्ञ हो जाते हैं। नहीं। परमात्मा जैसी ज्ञान की, ज्ञाता होने की क्षमता किसी में भी नहीं होती। जो आत्माएं परमात्मा के समकक्ष हो जाती हैं, वे विरले गिनी चुनी आत्माएं ही होती हैं। ऐसी आत्माओं को और परम आत्मा को मेरा कोटि कोटि नमन है। विरले ज्ञानी आत्मा होने की पराकाष्ठा वाले होने का केवल यही भावार्थ है उन आत्माओं ने भौतिक अभौतिक की ठीक ठीक आन्तरिक सूक्ष्म वस्तुस्थिति को दिव्य बुद्धि से समझ लिया है। ऐसी आत्माएं यह संसार द्वंदात्मक स्थिति है। इस द्वंद को समझकर इसमें अपना अनासक्त अभिनय करते हुए इससे पार साक्षी निर्द्वंद स्थिति को प्राप्त करना ही मेरा का परम लक्ष्य है।

Samsara
And So It Begins...
As if it ends
The Truths are weighed with Lies
A Time of Sublime
For its all of a bind
A tied knot of entropic grind
As it goes Out
I think of my Bought
With Impermanence of my Mind
As it reaches the peak
I stand on my Feet
Arms reached up on a High
Like waves to the moon
I will swell Soon
and again become part of the Sky
Between the lines
A flip of a Dime
Will I return to Time
But for know
I'll continue my Bought
With Forever on my Mind

Unattributed disdain
The effect of
Violence that remains
Despite the
Ever growing tenacity
Expressed by the impetuous and good
Kindness like blindness growing in spite of
What reminds us
Time doesn't last
So take off that cast
There's no way to heal
Instead try to seal
Within yourself a sense of zeal
Dispose of insincerity
Eclipsing over a changing sea
Recognize all that has come to be
Humbly accept all that you receive
Rush forward indiscriminately
Holding onto a state of
Perpetual epiphanies
Supposed to be and
Perfectly regarded
As if imposed by the departed
Accept this gift
Answer your own wish
Lightning bolt solutions
Illuminating what you might miss
Ignite the way to a path that sways
Full of resentment and
Decay
Desperately and
Without penalty
Confusing your actions
Expecting reactions
"What is compassion
Break it down for me
I want to see"
Lifetime attempts to balance
Empathy and
Apathy

Pentimento
Are we the people we claim to be ?
Are we willing to let go of the
Facade we create to move
On in life ? How deep are our
Own concealments? Are they enough
To create a completely different
Visage or merely to cover up the
Unseemly disastrous people
We really are ? Two versions of
The same person - the brighter,
Perkier, happier versions we want
To be seen as, to project to the world
Versus the lesser versions we are
In reality. Sometimes it seems some
Remnants of the real us peak through
The smooth layers of paint making
Us pentimenti . The challenge of
Course really is how many layers of
Paint are required to shield the
Reality, the real person even if just
On the surface. Why do the bubbles
Of truth burst once they reach the
Surface of the water ? They do
Because in travelling up they lose
The strength to fight the environment
Of the outside world no matter how
Hard they try and show up on the
Surface. The truth never outs and
Thus we are able to maintain our
Facades - the pentimento.
Shakespeare had once said “truth
Will come to light ”.... but does it ?
Isn’t it better buried and forgotten ?
Are we really seeking out the truth ?
Can someone ever be completely
Understood? Do we really want to be understood or are we cocooned in
The warmth of our multiple selves,
Our hidden intentions? We are
A strange breed - we want the truth,
We supposedly seek the truth but are
Unwilling to let others see the truth of
Our own selves thereby revealing
Ourselves to them. What if the reality
Is not the person they wanted to see-
What if the real us is lesser , much
Lesser than our projected selves ?
People who do this- which of course
Includes all of us, like the comfort of
Living in the shadows , lurking near
The mucky bedrock of lies and
Deceit..... a place that both protects
And safeguards the darkest secret
Of all- we aren’t and never will be enough
For our own selves, in our own eyes....
And this pretence will never be
Lifted lest we actually find ourselves,
Meet ourselves one day - from the
Depths of the smoke and shadows .
