II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

ऐसा यहु संसार है, जैसा सैंबल फूल I
दिन दस के व्यौहार में, झूठै रंगि न भूल II

"Kabir says, Maya means that the world is not as it seems; the world that one experiences is misleading as far as its true nature is concerned. The world is both real and unreal because it exists but is 'not what it appears to be'. 
The Maya of nature is not hard to deal with, but we prefer to ignore it because it requires a greater effort to probe behind nature’s mysteries. It is the Maya of our human world that is our main preoccupation, challenge, fascination and problem. In our social interaction, as we all know, there is much posturing, role playing, pretending or even outright deception going on. Those who are gullible and naive often find themselves taken advantage of.

In the modern world, we live in a turbulent ocean of appearances, impressions and influences. Unless we learn to probe beyond these surface waves, we are unlikely to find the truth of life and will often be deceived, not only by others but also by ourselves, as each one of us has his or her illusions about self and world as well.

Silk cotton tree bears red colored beautiful flowers that may attract the attention of the passerby but fail to attract bees for not having much essence."
