SEVEN GRANDFATHER TEACHINGS

It’s ironic isn't it…how even though we tried to destroy indigenous cultures 
and replace them with our own.
how even though we no longer want this history to be known…

How in spite of all this and the indignities they suffered…
all their heartache..all their pain
In spite of our best efforts…their cultures and their teachings still remain.

And how

Teachings from a Guru

Laugh when you still can for the world will make you cry
Do something different even when you feel it’s not worth the try
Don’t be a part of some gossip where people want to pry

Words of wisdom will come to few
But from someone’s life you can pick up a cue
Live a life so simple that there

The Barefoot Village Woman

On the other side of the village, there lived an old woman.
Every day, she walked barefoot on a country dusty road,
passing by our neighborhood.

In the summer, we played all day long in the dust,
We, curious children, asked:
- Why do you walk barefoot when every villager wears sandals?

She didn’t answer, she didn’t speak.

We, waggish kids, threw

Smart Students

Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn. 
-Benjamin Franklin

When a teacher is teaching  , some smart students 
Always love so much their teacher because
They want to be knowledgeable in their lives.

About the concern of Christ Jesus on Peter...
Why was He

The Maladroit Teachings of the Human Skul

A cracked and empty skull
makes a beautiful flower pot,
desk tidy or paperweight.

Place a nightlight in that osseus cave
and it will become a small table lamp.

Through the ages
monks have harvested skulls;
some sanctuaries and chapels
are built on human bones
and the skulls form their central alter.

Mystics understand
that this is the ultimate jaw-dropping sermon.

The human skull reminds us that

November's Teachings

November brings the end of Autumn, but its own inspiring beginning
A flurry of wildlife are around to watch, all preparing for winter
The bare trees expose distant views of mountains and open skies
Brilliant colors of sunrises and sunsets, days of beginnings and endings
There is a calmness in the cool air, as it prepares for snowflakes to

The Man and His Teachings

He sat in a boat at the edge of the sea,
The people thronged Him,
They hungered for His words,
His words flooded the gloom cloaked in them,
They filled the fissures that ran in them,
They were saddled with life's weights,
They were victims of circumstances,
Troubled by life’s vicissitudes,
They were in search of a saviour,
They desired a deliverer,
Spiritual gatherings were

Know This Drop That

The way up, is down
Even if only on your knees
Believe this, in Jesus Sermon, 
Matthews (5,6,7): humble like these
Children, said He: you are One
Of a kind, His masterpiece
But everyone he made alike as peas
Along with this Earth Pod. I know
I also fought, once against two
I slipped, but enemies saw me fall
I kicked rapidly on my

Teachings of Miseries

A big thank you to all those who crushed my desires, 
Now my mind is calm with minimum one requires

A big thank you to all those who criticized me,
Now criticism doesn't hurt, positive I see

A big thanks to those who never helped me in need,
They made me strong, of expectations I am freed

Teachings of New Year 2020

morning of new day of the Year-2020
I don't find the bed-sheet of fogs around me
this morning is not new to me
this fairness of dawn is not new
everything and everyone as usual activated

last night 11: 59 minutes brought nothing
heard some carefree musical sound
enjoyed a birthday cake for new day of the Year-2020
danced enjoying the snow beer
and

Upside Down Teachings

Kindergarten logic twists narrative indoctrinating the young 
in how to tell their parents to behave at home 
threatening such behaviour turns against family values 
in favour of this one sided view that alters the truth
