Unfurl Your Wisdom: Dancing in the Bliss Rain

Unfurl Your Wisdom: Dancing in the Bliss Rain

We’ve all been there, haven’t we? Trudging through life, heads down, sometimes feeling a little lost in the gloom. It’s as if a perpetual drizzle obscures our path, and we clutch our closed umbrellas, ironically shielding ourselves not from a storm, but from the very light we crave. This is the profound image you’ve painted, a powerful metaphor for the human condition: “Mind is a closed umbrella of Wisdom but we never open as most of the time we walk in Darkness.”

What a poignant truth! Our minds are vast repositories of insight, intuition, and innate understanding—a beautiful, intricately designed umbrella of pure wisdom. Yet, for so much of our journey, it remains tightly furled, a potential unreached, a resource untapped. Why? Because, as you so aptly put it, we often “walk in Darkness.” This darkness isn’t always external; it’s the darkness of distraction, of fear, of societal conditioning, of simply forgetting who we truly are beneath the layers of daily existence.

The Call to Return: Unearthing Our Original Nature

But the story doesn’t end in the shadows. Your wisdom offers a luminous path forward, a two-fold invitation: “Go back to your original nature inside and feel the nature outside.”

The first step is an inward journey. What is this “original nature”? It’s the authentic self, the spirit unburdened by ego, judgment, or expectation. It’s the quiet knowing that resides within us before the world tells us who we should be. It’s the place of pure potential, boundless creativity, and unconditional love. To go back to it means to shed the accumulated anxieties and external definitions, to meditate, to reflect, to simply be with ourselves. It’s a homecoming to the essence of who we are, a remembering of our inherent wholeness.

The Embrace of Now: Connecting with the World

Once we begin to reconnect with our inner landscape, the second part of the invitation becomes possible and even more vibrant: “feel the nature outside.” This isn’t just about appreciating a sunset (though that’s certainly part of it!). It’s about being fully present, engaging all our senses, and truly experiencing the world around us. It’s about listening to the rain, feeling the sun on our skin, tasting our food mindfully, and observing the intricate dance of life. When we are rooted in our authentic self, our perception of the external world transforms. The mundane becomes miraculous, and every interaction, every moment, is imbued with a deeper sense of connection and wonder.

The Grand Unveiling: Dancing in the Bliss Rain

And then, comes the glorious crescendo, the ultimate act of liberation and joy: “dance in the Bliss rain and open the Umbrella.”

Imagine it: the rain is no longer a symbol of gloom or something to be avoided. Instead, it’s a celestial showering of pure “Bliss”—the joy of existence, the flow of life, the universe’s abundant grace. It’s the invigorating truth that washes away the darkness and nourishes the soul. And in this moment of ecstatic embrace, our tightly closed umbrella of wisdom naturally unfurls.

To “open the umbrella” is to allow that innate wisdom to fully extend, to shield us not from the blissful rain, but to become a channel for it. It’s to live from a place of conscious awareness, where our actions are guided by our deepest truths, where we navigate challenges with grace, and where our minds are finally open to receive and reflect the boundless insights available to us. It’s letting our intuition lead, allowing creativity to flow, and expressing our unique gifts to the world.

A Call to Action: Step Into the Light

So, what keeps your umbrella closed? Is it the fear of vulnerability? The comfort of old habits? The noise of external demands? Today, let’s choose to step out from under the self-imposed darkness.

Close your eyes for a moment. Feel your breath. Reconnect with that quiet, powerful core within you. Then, open your eyes and truly see the world around you. Let the “Bliss rain” of existence wash over you, invigorating your spirit.

It’s time to stop walking in darkness with a closed umbrella. It’s time to dance. It’s time to unfurl your magnificent umbrella of wisdom and let its vibrant colors illuminate not just your path, but the world around you.

Darshan = visual language of silence

God is a visual language of silence

images

One afternoon after lunch as I was coming out from my friend’s home

in Saket in New Delhi noticed a very fine and famous monument ……..

Qutab Minar  ….a UNESCO World Heritage site .. …. 

association of brain memory suggest that a very dear friend

and a fine photo artist has a studio near by …….

so decided to call as I visit him once in a blue moon …….

he was delighted to hear me and asked me to come so visited him …..

reaching his office ……. looked at each other  for few moments ……

there were a TV crew to interview him

and

I also was pressed for time for a music concert in the evening ……..

asked his permission to leave so he asked …..

why did I visited him for such short time ?……

usually it will last long hours ……

so replied ….. for your DARSHAN …….

so he asked what is DARSHAN …….

replied him …… visual language of silence …..

krishnabalaram

Darśana (also Darśan or Darshan; Sanskrit: दर्शन) is a term meaning “sight”

In the sense “to see with reverence and devotion,”

and could refer either to a vision of the divine

or to being in the presence of a highly revered person.

“By doing darshan properly a devotee develops affection for God,

and

God develops affection for that devotee.”

Darshan is ultimately difficult to define,

since it is an event in consciousness—

an interaction in presence between devotee and God/guru;
or
between devotee and image or sculpture,

which focuses and calls out the consciousness of the devotee.

In either event, a heightening of consciousness or spirituality is the intended effect.

Hari Anant Hari Katha Ananta

Kahahi Sunahi Bahu Vidhi Sab Santa

Lord  (Hari) is infinite (Ananta),

and

so are the stories (Katha) about his glory

All learned seers (Santa) narrate (kahahi) these

and

listen (sunahi) to them in many different ways (bahu vidhi)

ram0ram footnote :

Since all creative languages comes out from silence ……

everyone has own choice and medium of expression and explanations…….

so have your own language …… it can be dance , vocal music , instrumental music , painting , poetry , writing , watching , talking , walking and any thing of our own choice …… all as prayer of divine ….. all with silence ……. all in totality …… all in oneness …… to understand this visual language ….. as

सत्यम शिवम सुंदरम =

Satyam Shivam Sundram 

 which means God is truth …… truth is God …… and God is beauty …….. the essence of visual language of silence
