Times And seasons When Soul Speaks To Souls

 

The weather  of our small city has decided to change finally :) believe it or not no more sweats for  two to three months at least , what a relief (sigh) .My medication course has ended and i am enjoying the new mood of the weather thoroughly and with more attentive mind thankfully ,slight breeze and comforting sunlight is so much well come here which seems delightful to senses. It has been thirty years since i moved here after my marriage still when i visit to blogger friends who share stunning autumn of their area it awakes so many memories which time and business could not erase or dim in these thirty years. 

Memories of  days when i lived in a hill top house back in my native village .Our house had perfect view of widely spread fields below beyond which flowed stream and across the steam was gardens of  other village  laying in the lap of front hills .When autumn would come i was able to observe  how fall leaves would turn their colors and make such an exuberant lace along the hill line that it would seem impossible to turn eyes from them. Cool winds and  departing leaves from the arms of trees would make environment quite stunningly gloomy .But i liked that gloomy touch of the season that would seem to open new doors inside my soul while deepening my thoughts and awakening grave sensitivity within my heart. It would inspire me to write more . I never wrote romantic poetry if one sticks romanticism to write about a lover . Most of my poetry was kind of monologue  about world ,views ,nature and people, my thoughts that i could not share to anyone  except to notebook .You can say that my canvas of "lover" was broader  and everything that was part of Nature was and is loved by me . Autumn would enrich my connection to everything around and every emotion within me .So i loved autumn and i still do though here i cannot feel her presence only know it is fall through calendar .And yes my small garden's plants try to whisper about fall too on tiny bases .

As i believe that Nature has created everything for "purpose" i think fall is also to for reason. Nature has given us diversity in everything not only to have various tastes of life but the diversity being displayed through every  creation of the Nature is actually an Example of the diversity Nature itself is going through consistently since billions of years. Times like day and night or seasons like summer and winter are strong aspects of  how Nature works physically . In life we experience" diversity " in everything  like weather ,time frame ,seasons foods so on and on and on,these are physically existing things. What about Moods ,thoughts ,attitudes ,beliefs and so on.... these are things that don't exist physically still they decide what we are going to do with our life .

As we are part of Nature both of these things or qualities we surely have adopted from Nature. So we can say that as "living part of Nature or universe " we are obliged to not just " exist" but to "feel" just like Nature does. If it was random burst out existence things should have travelled in  straight lines in the horizons of space instead of being spherical and form rotary families  .There would have no concept of time at all which makes all this  possible .But we see how enormous and deep is wisdom of Nature . How life sprouting out in pin point started to take various shapes gradually  and continue to grow in vast  tree of universe .We find that how Nature has ability to sustain this ever growing universe in certain well organized way . Diversity is very first child of "Growth" .If we grow it is obvious to go through various certain changes. 

Back to actual topic i started with the "autumn" . I think that times like morning and evening and seasons like autumn speak to us on the behalf of "soul of the universe" .They are "divine invitation for us to be hold and "feel" so we can realize the true pattern of life. 

Why the same views that we don't find appealing enough to stop and even look at become captivating during early morning and evening. What magic does a slightly changed angle of light  to spectacles that transforms the whole scenario at once .We all are familiar with  peculiar moods we have during these times. A strong wave seems to come over and drag us into completely new version of us which we hardly encounter in day or night times. I think the actual thing that works behind this revolution is the "feel" which these times deliver to our heart. Before appearing or disappearing when sun contracts or spreads it's rays on the views everything looks different ,like revealing  panoramic look of the "Spirit of the Universe and Life" in it which speaks to pondering heart that 

"see how short is the spin of life"  so don't stuck in well of trivial ideas. Move soothingly while learning how to move even better and share the ease and goodness you earn in the way because you are here not forever"

Same story tells the short living flowers of spring and falling leaves of autumn . If everything was random these time periods and seasons would have not been existing i believe. They are a way through which Soul of Nature, Universe approach our souls so we can receive this divine message and empower them to embrace glory of life!

Keep rotating and keep blooming dear Friends ! all matter is quality of  our Existence rather than quantity so make sure no matter how long we live it with meaning and purpose :) 

Blessings to all of you and to all you all love!

  1. ""see how short is the spin of life"

    It is a short season.


    "so don't stuck in well of trivial ideas. Move soothingly while learning how to move even better and share the ease and goodness you earn in the way because you are here not forever"

    Move soothingly. I like that.


    "Same story tells the short living flowers of spring and falling leaves of autumn . If everything was random these time periods and seasons would have not been existing i believe. "

    I like the way you said it. I think random is unlikely too.

    Hope you are having good days, Baili. It is a bit cloudy here today. I have a pot of chili simmering in the crockpot. 😊

    1. this seems ridiculous to think of this whole scenario and life as "random " dear Sandi .i am shocked where people with such set of thoughts use their imagination which is given to see beyond where eyes can't reach ?

      i know little by books but books give only hint ,life experiences show only surface of things ,it is imagination which unveil what lies ahead .i really wish this terrible selfish greedy phase pass soon and people come with sensitivity and sensibility to conceive the truth behind visible existence and try to harmonize with Nature in better way.

      we as human are so lost sadly in meaningless trivial stuff ,power ,money and control is game being played since days of utter ignorance and no education seems to enlighten the darkness of people's heart at all. this is sad and funny at the same time . power manipulates the weak ,raw minds so easily and they drowned deep in this swamp .they don't remember anymore they were created as "humans"
      science is only way to show us truth ,the truth which can be verified by our gift of imagination while supporting it with our honest views about life we gained through experiences and observations .but ego and greed make us selfish enough to avoid reality and feel better while being lost in mirage of false ideas.

      if science is still free to tell truth people in times ahead will soon learn that Nothing is random here .everything is moving systematically and is obliged to follow the certain rules. avoiding rules is easy but demands greater cost sooner or latter and if we see it everywhere though hesitate to admit because it hurts the idol of our ego badly .

  2. In the fall I become rather tired. I feel like I'm preparing to hibernate. At the same time I find the colors to be exhilarating. How is that for mood diversity?

    1. dear Emma the both feelings ,feeling of tiredness and feeling of "sadness" though occur after certain situation and scientifically both have reason to exist Still don't you agree that both of these feelings are part of "diversity " and "change"

      without being sad how can one value the sense of "happiness" and same is about "tiredness" i believe . we earn tiredness by achieving sense of success of doing something .Tiredness is gift which bring break for our body and soul s well .you can unfold this gift while being at rest feeling happy what you could do during your active period ,daydreaming through the flights of your imagination ,gratefulness for being able to achieve all you wanted to while thinking about them who are not that lucky .and yes planning how you going to spend your next active period of time , and all this when you are inhaling the present beauty before you offered by fall :) sounds like a great idea for facing diversity of moods with diversity of your ways to deal with it :)

  3. The two seasons that are my favourite is the Spring and Autumn ...

    1. Spring is like bursting laughter of Nature dear Jan which echoes to senses overwhelmingly ,all one feels is pure delight and joy which makes him smile no matter what :)

      on the other hand Fall is season of "departure " observing changing colors and seeing leaves falling saddens heart inevitably though consciously or unconsciously.
      Nature could have choose Summer for falling leaves and we would have found it so normal because of reason Nature designed for us to comprehend but the way summer loosen our muscles and make our mind with more flexibility could have restrain us from putting effort to understand what message she (the Nature) want us to deliver .
      She choose cooler days to witness this melancholic season so we feel dense ,intense and almost force to stop and look carefully .
      yes i love both seasons too :)

    1. dear Red sorry if i disappoint you as i said always no preparation for my posts .i just sit and start by staring at screen ,try to type some sentences if they can make sense .sometime i start with one thing and slip into other .i feel so embarrassed with such loose sharing but still i try to keep up to date my blog and share what i have in my head currently .

      i wrote this post in three steps as i had to get up and do house chores meanwhile .the only thing i had in my mind was recent pleasant change in weather here and i wanted to share this joy with friends .when i started to write the fall photos shared by different blogger friends popped in my mind and i began with these two things , rest was my genuine thoughts i have about how i see pattern and harmony in everything designed by Nature .

      Spring is my most happy season for sure ,once i heard from my eldest son that he read somewhere that Spring season has started to shorten and will disappear in next some hundred or a thousand years,that made my heart heavy and i felt sad for many days .anyway i am grateful i born during time when spring still flourishes the earth planet thankfully !

  5. "When Soul Speaks to Souls" -- what a beautiful phrase and concept!

    1. Each existing particle has soul whether living or non living dear Debra :)

      so we are living part of universe and therefore our "senses or feelings" which belong to soul only are most obvious part of soul that universe has .

      like everything moves in circle i believe soul of the universe too try to connect to her essence deeply and these are the times and seasons when she strengthen this connection most :)

  6. Hello dear Baili, you beautiful soul! I'm really grateful for your gift of writing. You put in words what I feel (and try to express with photos). Autumn is special, like evenings, they make us think of our (transient) life here and the meaning of all this.
    God bless you!

      oh i love evenings too ,evenings that i spent in my native home yard while inhaling the beauty of Nature spreading around me keeps me company where ever i spend my evenings now :)
      the setting sun pulls back it's rays from the face of scenes it gives metaphysical meaning to everything laying before eyes .i love this quality deeply :)
      yes Nature seems to slow down and contemplate and she demands same from us meanwhile :)

  9. This is a wonderful post dear Baili. Yes, feeling nature is a gift that we don't always take advantage of. Have a very nice day.

  10. Dear Baili, your mind just intrigues me. You are not a surface or a veneer person. Instead, you go deep, deep down into the wellspring of an idea and find the water that nourishes it. Or to use another metaphor, you find the roots of an idea and then your mind grows with it like a tree and your share with us all the branches and leaves of that tree and enrich our lives. Thank you. Peace.

  11. Hi, Baili! Autumn is my favorite season. I feel I'm most alive in the autumn, and it's the start of a new year: school, university, and teaching much of my life probably led to this feeling. It is the most beautiful time of year and the most bountiful. In the rhythm of the seasons, the rhythms of our solar system and galaxy, I see purpose, meaning, and inspiration. Hints to the mystery of our Creator! When I googled you this time, a YouTube video of yours popped up. You, Ali, and your sons were singing and playing on the beach by Karachi. It was a joy to hear the voices of you and your family and to hear you singing and laughing! Sending you and your family love and wishes for happiness and fulfillment! And a special hug for you!

    1. i think autumn is most inspiring seasons for creative people like you dear Louise, people who seek for truth and have an unconscious desire to understand pattern of life and Nature find autumn more comforting and provoking to think deeply i agree. i have habit to find everything speaking to me and autumn makes it clearer and louder :)

      oh yes that video was recorded on beach by my me ,it was when our eldest son took us with him to Karachi so he can spent more time with us before leaving for Germany.that was one of the mst beautiful evening we spent together beside the sea ,how amazing you googled for me ,i never thought about it though i sometimes googled for my sister's facebook account so i can see her but could not find though she has facebook account which she stick with regularly unlike her i did not go back to mine (made my eldest son for me when he created blog in 2009) but i lost interest after an few months or an year i think ,it did not interest me at all.
      thank you for heart warming wishes precious friend ,same here indeed from the bottom of my soul and heart! hugs back to you too!

  12. Lovely thoughts, Baili. You have captured the mood of the changing seasons and how we must change along with it. It's a time of slowing down and taking time to reflect. Hope you have a lovely weekend. Hugs xx K

    1. i believe that as because we are tiny particles of Nature we reflect her "ways" through our behaviors though being living and thinking part of Nature allows us to present it more poignantly and instantly which effects our life both ways positive and negative .

      some us us who have more "soul" quality of Nature are compelled to contemplate more deeply instead of those who have physical characteristics of Nature more obvious .Autumn offers both to slow and ponder on what is present before eyes so can learn precisely how to exist in harmony with all around us .

  13. Hi Dear Baili,
    The last few years I have been studying spirituality and trying to become more aware of my part of the Universe. When I stop by Baili and I it is impressive to see your deep understanding of the Universe. I love the way you understand that Nature is the way the Universe is evolving and that we humans are a part of that Nature. Thank you for sharing your love and understanding through your blog and your kind comments on my blog. I send you hugs and wishes for happy days ahead. Please keep up the good work spreading the divine message and glory of life!
    John

    1. dear John you are always very kind !

      honestly i hardly know anything about spirituality nor i ever read about it ,must be great to learn it through various perspectives of people .

      i can talk only about myown toughts on the subject if i have some :)

      yes from little age i felt strongly connected to everything around me ,specially the natural phenomena hold me still and i just kept staring at them like trying to search something invisible .i was not aware of what it was actually ,all i knew that i was different and weird for many around.
      with age time came when i felt sad and pity for myself for being "different" and not being able to fit in tempting crowed but such times came in pieces and during teenage .later in my thirties i tried to figure our seriously what is wrong with me and then came time when i analyzed myself under the universal laws and measured my prospectus in universal scale of "right and wrong " and good and bad . that worked for me miraculously because i was satisfied to learn that i was not a bad person at all just different . i acknowledged the stern reality and decided to strengthen what is good in me . i can say toady that i am feeling serene and happier after realizing my strong connection with Nature and how every single creature belong to same energy pool from which i sprang out for short existence . i am on my journey to make this connection stronger and this gives meaning to my life for me :)
      thank you so much for encouragement dear friend!
      the peace i found after this realization is priceless and i want everyone to feel same way !

  14. you write such beautiful posts - they are poetic in their nature. I always feel a "charge" of some type reading you ...like a thought runs through and says "dont go back to sleep". Wake up and really see what is around you and how you "feel" about it. Feeling is to me, more important at times than seeing. It is the feeling that makes me love the nature around me. thanks for your amazing words.

    1. oh this is absolutely very sweet of you dear Sandy !

      hearing such kind encouragement from such a fine painter like you is honor indeed and specially how deeply you are into spirituality !

      i feel really blessed to have such strong sense of "connectivity " with everything as "one whole" this is inexplicable realization indeed and never ever leaves one with feeling of "loneliness"

      one thing became very clear to me that there is no reality bigger than that ,that "we find what we look for eventually "
      we the human feel desperate or lonely when we Rely on our physical side completely ,we look forward solid materialistic pleasures and success that counts on worldly bases. if we fail we become depressed and sick and this influence our life so badly. mind dulled with depression works poorly and makes wrong decision and life become miserable for us and all around us.

      our first and last biggest mistake that we chase happiness on wrong place ,true happiness can never be found in material or in physical connection because true happiness belong to our soul side ,physical existence is limited and has restricted access though soul is something "divinely free " source which has astonishing ability to connect with "whole" while inhabiting within a single body , it is strange but i can feel it's serene waves that travel smoothly through the ocean of life while keeping their identity personal identity Yet make the ocean as "whole" their connection never breaks out despite of all the distance between them .we all have "soul" but many of us choose to experience physical existence only and avoid soul totally. if we switch to soul life has completely meaning for us which offer us peace of mind first of all and then longing to see unlined truth of Nature .

      you have gift to feel and it makes me so happy for you my friend!

    2. wow, loved reading this. I didn't get back until now. I just read something recently and to sum it up. Physical existence as we know it is only 1% of universal spiritual life. We literally are 99% awake in another reality in our spirit/soul where there is no positive or ngeative - but a reality of pure peave, love, etc. If we choose Peace, knowing the reason we are doing it, in the face of trials, pain, etc. That choice of choosing peace is basically saying, I choose the truth of my Beingness in the Creator - however, we individually call it, God, Allah ...etc. Anyway I have been doing that for awhile and I walk on the trails and keep awake and choose peace and gotta say, magic and miracles are everywhere...

    1. thank you for kind words and visit dear Debbie !

      i loved the phrase of yours "God saves best for the last "

      i really wonder as i am growing old what is saved for us ahead by Creator then thought comes in mind instantly that God or Creator is not separate from us all ,He is part of our being as he has created us out of his unlimited divine energy . he stays with us as water stays around it's bubble and observes it's capacity to exist successfully with opportunity to exist provided by Nature .Free will and freedom of choice comes with greatest responsibility and our attitude towards it decides what we are going to save for ourselves

  17. Hello, Baili. Admitting every season has its own beauty, I like better autumn, winter, spring and summer in this order. I know how hot and humid weather sap your energy, so I’m happy for you the weather change. I think ancient people lived in harmony with nature, but with the development of technology, humans came to think we can control nature arrogantly. My question is why humans can’t live like flowers according to the Will of Nature. Sometimes I need to make my mind empty to listen to nature. Enjoy your season.
