Wandering with Khushada Dil.....surrendering mind.

Khusada Dil -2

From Previous……) Khushada Dil laughed back and said “certainly years my brother”…. He laughed in such a way that I didn’t doubt that he was lying. It was natural “ Who he was?”…a cold feeling of fear of unknown ran through my veins. All of sudden the quite atmosphere became more quite, the net of the wind started circling around my neck and the rope of the grass held me by my legs. I was unable to move any part of my body except the eye balls. In this still environment where the heart beat was at maximum low and the supply of oxygen to the brain very high; my eyes became the windows through which my intellect saw that it was a flat plain , and near the river bank behind a big rock a big cat with its back towards me was trying to fire the woods. I remembered the cat in the cell of the mystic. Is “Khushada Dil” a mysterious cat? I was on mountain and now it was a flat field with a river running through it”. Am I asleep? I tried to get out of this possible dream but all my effort to move my body did nothing but a realization that its real and this reality is so intense for my mind that if it was exposed to the light and with the flash became momentarily blind.

“Agha ! O Agha !” Khushada Dil was moving my shoulder; where are you lost my brother? He had a usual big smile on his face, as if he was enjoying my state of confusion. Where is the cat? I looked around but saw nothing. “ The cow becomes afraid when I milk, so if you need the tea with milk you got to milk the cow.” He placed a metal pot in my hand and showed me the cow. I moved hypnotically , and started milking the cow. The cow bend its neck and looked into my eyes, “ I am a cow, but you are human..Why are you following the orders of this big cat? I do not understand. The whole universe is for you the son of Adam, everything is created for you and always ready and waiting to be in your service. You are his guest and he made you milk me; the cat is very mean she knew that I won’t let her milk me so did she ask you to milk. Now hurry up and milk, I am very tired and need some sleep.” I was unable to move a single muscle after hearing this from the cow I was about to milk. “ Oh, why are you taking so long? Milk..Hurry” but looking a great fear in my wide open eyes. “ Oh , this is first time you are listening to the animal. Ok am giving you a cup of milk enough for one cup of tea and let this mean cat go to hell”. And with this a cup of milk was poured into the pot and the cow moved away.

As I turned towards Dilkhusha, I found that it was a heavy rain forest and again saw the back of the big cat near the fire. I felt great pressure on my brain nerves, nothing was in harmony..the body and mind were totally out of equilibrium. The cat turned its face towards me and now I saw the face of Khushada Dil. “ Oh, you mean cow.” He started laughing upon looking at the quantity of the milk in the pot; I just passed in his hands.  He held me from my hand asked me to sit near the fire with him.

“Agha, don’t put much pressure on your brains. It will take some time to digest all this. Your mind is haunted by the assumptions. Form is empty, emptiness is Form…as you have been learning for several years and now entering into other phase of “unlearning”…..try not to make any assumptions or judgments which are the real hurdles in the process of unlearning. People tend to persist in doing something after being told that it is absurd or unnecessary because continuing with this course pleases them more than adopting a correct one. Forget Who I am.


 How many times,
Will you drag yourself and me
Between us?
He, the goal of I and thou
Is there – right there!
Who is he?

He who manifests himself
Upon himself
Makes love to himself
In the name
Of lovers –
Who is he?
I am not important to know Agha.” Khushada said. I was gaining some strength, and slowly my nerves started releasing the tension.. I was certainly in some strange situation ; can’t comprehend so surrendered the thought process. And the clouds of fear started drifting; and with the each sip of the tea the wave of energy started breaking the stone I was feeling in my skull, and I was feeling the blood running through. That tea became a tonic for me and I asked him to pour some more tea in the cup. His back was of cat and front was all human. I decided to act upon his advice to take some time  and instead of asking about him waited for the right time for this mystery to be resolved.

“ Agha ! the master has left for the meeting. I am here to be in your service, so you are my master till he come. I beg your permission to meet my beloved “ Dilkhusha”. His father who is the King of his country is a very strict person and the lovers hardly find the way to meet. The father is so strict that now he has constructed a palace for her in the sky. If you want you can company me to the palace, or if you want you can take rest in the cell and I will return in the morning.” Khushada Dil said.

A mysterious date, and that also in the palace in sky. I couldn’t resist. “ But how we gonna go there? I can only walk on merciful earth.” I replied. “ we will go there on my wooden horse, all you need is to learn how to operate it.”..There are 28 screws carved on the horse, you need to know the science of operating the 28 screw. It is simple as if to learn the 28 letters of the alphabets……..it is as you will learn the language of the wood to give order to the wood to act on what you tell it." Saying this he went to bring this mysterious wooden horse.
