मौत बिसारी बावरी, अचरज कीया कौन I तन माटी में मिल गया, ज्यौं आटा में लौन II
The most difficult in the world is to appreciate what we have 'until we lose it'. We all need to accept the fact that we are all living life but moving toward its final destination ,death itself. Each day passes away with people dying at different places in different ways. And we wait our turns, with questions on our minds ' 'When?' 'Where?' 'How?' It can come to us anytime, anyhow and anyplace. It gives no consideration to age or circumstances; no second chance, no turning back. Death is inevitable.
There is nothing surprising in it. But awaking every morning is no less than a miracle. Let not the deaths of our dear ones be in vain, rather it can be an awakening for us all. We need to ponder over the options left with us-either to enjoy this worldly life and ignore death and its implications till it comes or to prepare for it mentally as well as spiritually. These are the two choices. Two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it is easy. The other demands faith, belief, courage and perseverance and its reward is highest, the Liberation. Life is fragile, handle with prayer because every next breath can be our last.
"Kabir says, there is no greater reality than death itself, for the body made of earth returns to earth just like salt added to the bread flour becomes one with it."
