Me, My Guru



…contd….

How long I had been looking at that leaf I didn’t know? But, now my eye fell on its petiole – the stem that held it to its branch.  It was so thin.  My god! I couldn’t believe that a chord so thin could hold the leaf against wind and rain.  Yet the leaf seemed to have no fear.  Where did it get its confidence from I wondered? Then, it stuck me that trust is not based on the facts and figures.  It doesn’t need proofs. It just is!  Now I understood, what my Guru used to talk about Trust… it doesn’t need proofs.  It is beyond facts. A shiver went down my spine.  A tear rolled down my cheek and a smile rested on my lips when this understanding hit me…..i felt peaceful. I was still!

I left her place even without meeting her.  This feeling was so awesome that I didn’t want to lose it by talking even to her.  I knew she would understand….

Few days passed.  I was sitting in a garden and children were playing some games there.  I was watching them my eyes fell on a tree and then it rested on the leaf. Even without my effort I started  looking at it and after sometime I felt gratitude for the Creator who’s created such a wonderful thing for me! Yes me! For me to breathe fresh air! Such a simple method of cleaning the atmosphere of my breathe and yet so beautiful to look at.  More I looked at it; more I fell in love with HIM.  I thanked the Nature and God for all they were doing for me!
