The document discusses how countless small things are needed to create larger things. It provides examples of how it takes countless droplets to fill a bucket, beams of sunlight to illuminate the planet, streams of blood to power the body, grains of sand to form deserts, waves to form oceans, alphabets to write books, steps to climb mountains, grass blades to form meadows, tears to achieve goals, flower petals to form garlands, bones to allow movement, seconds to pass before nightfall, births to achieve a blessed life, dreams to wake in tranquility, hours of turmoil to achieve perfection, breaths of air to transform a candle flame, and days of childhood to mature into adulthood.

Just A Single Beat -Part 2
It took infinite small elements to evolve the complex natural world and human achievements we see today, from oceans and mountains to cities and innovations. However, the passage concludes that according to the Almighty Lord, it only takes a single heartbeat to fall in immortal love and embrace all living things with equality and togetherness. Therefore, the passage encourages opening one's heart even a little to experience the astounding beauty and love that can be shared between all.
Poured
The document describes how various objects and beings "pour" different things. It discusses how clouds pour rain, the sun pours light, a nightingale pours song, a candle pours wax, the moon pours light, roses pour fragrance, an oyster pours pearls, the mind pours fantasy, a pen pours words, a cat pours sounds, a tree pours fruit, the mouth pours sound and rhyme, the eye pours tears, the body pours sweat, cows pour milk, a photo album pours nostalgia, a panther pours a roar, the nose pours scented air, and the heart pours love with each beat.
No Permissions
The document discusses how nature and natural phenomena do not need permission to occur. It describes how clouds, roses, grass, sheep, stars, the sun, mountains, bees, waves, nightingales, squirrels, leaves, hands, waterfalls, butterflies, rainbows, infants, and hearts do not need permission to manifest themselves, bring beauty, nourish life, and fulfill their natural functions. The overall message is that nature has an intrinsic ability to exist and thrive without needing external approval or authorization.
With Every Beat Of My Heart
The document describes how nothing in nature, from clouds to shadows, provided the slightest inspiration. In contrast, with every beat of the author's heart, unlimited sparkling fantasies were triggered in their brain, inspiring them to write infinite lines of immortal love poetry until beyond the definitions of ultimate and hopeless death.
Never Snatch
The document makes a series of statements beginning with "Never snatch" describing things that should not be taken away such as the sun from the sky, salt from the ocean, pride from a martyr, or a mother from her child. It pleads to an omnipotent lord that no power succeeds in accomplishing these "snatchings".
Why Has Truth Disappeared O! Lord
The poem laments the disappearance of truth from the world today. It describes truth as more grand and virtuous than many beautiful things in nature and in life, such as mountains, skies, oceans, and the sun. However, truth has been trampled on Earth more than flies. The poem asks God why truth has disappeared and its essence been destroyed so carelessly. It depicts truth as humanity's most precious possession since the beginning of creation.
Impregnably Soaked
The document describes how various natural and human elements are "soaked" in different sensations, experiences, and feelings. It uses elaborate language and vivid imagery to portray hills soaked in sunlight, forests soaked in sounds, the sky soaked in stars, fish soaked in waves, the body soaked in blood, lips soaked in smiles, grass soaked in dewdrops, roses soaked in scent, palms soaked in destiny lines, a clown soaked in laughter, a butterfly soaked in happiness, eyes soaked in moisture, a tongue soaked in saliva, an army soaked in patriotism, a tree soaked in leaves, ears soaked in sounds, a brain soaked in fantasies, nostrils soaked in breath, and a heart soaked in love.
Infinite Times Better
The document compares various human-made objects and concepts to aspects of nature, finding nature to be infinitely better in each case. It praises the sun, clouds, ocean, mountains, humanity, rainbows, mirrors, lions, the human brain, meadows, forests, storms, nature's reflections of the creator, and stars as being infinitely better than light bulbs, artificial thoughts, toilet water, stones, coins, crayons, broken glass, toys, computer chips, twigs, corked wine, air conditioners, idols, pencils, discotheque music, bricks, and coffins. It concludes that above all other things, immortal love is and forever will be infinitely better than anything else

Every Life Is Empty

Immortally Natural.

The Bride
The bride prepares for her wedding day, admiring her beauty in the mirror and adorning her body with pearls as she spends hours getting ready. She reminisces about her childhood and looks forward to the marriage ceremony that will bond her with her dream partner for life. She prays that every day will be as joyous and meaningful as this one where she proudly proclaims herself to be the bride.
Just Doesn't End
This document uses repetitive phrasing to suggest that the roles and jobs of many natural phenomena and concepts may end, but that the job of parents never ends. It states that a parent's job does not end at giving birth, providing for a child, or even after death, as parents continue guiding children from heaven towards righteousness.
Inimitably Infallible Fantasy
This document describes how fantasy is more liberating than any other experience. It states that not even the most beautiful natural phenomena like waterfalls, meadows, or seas can liberate a man like his own fantasy can. Fantasy allows a man to break free of prejudices, monotony, misery and feel blessed, charming, and able to perceive beyond lifetimes. Fantasy is described as a beautifully unbridled and passionately burgeoning ocean that can forever liberate a true man.
Amalgamation
The document discusses the power of amalgamation, or the combining of different elements. It provides various examples of how the amalgamation of disparate parts can lead to grand results, such as clouds forming rain, words making sentences, or people of different religions forming strong tribes. Ultimately, it argues that the greatest gift created through amalgamation is love, which people willingly sacrifice their lives for.
Invincible Love
The document expresses that without various things like stars, traffic, music, nature, emotions, and love, life feels empty. It states that stars pave a mystical path, deserts have a glistening carpet of sands, roads have traffic granting new dimensions, and throats have harmonious melodies. It concludes that without immortal love, which is the soul mate of one's dreams and reason to dream of more lives, every life feels empty.
The Day
The passage describes a day where everything seemed opposite of what is normal. The grass stung instead of feeling pleasant, clouds brought mud instead of rain, the waves produced sugar instead of salty water, eyes oozed blood instead of tears, and more. It depicts a day where the natural order was reversed for all things in nature and aspects of life, leaving the speaker ready to accept death from their Creator rather than experience such a strange and unnatural day further.
Can Never Evolve
The document states that things that cry uncontrollably, pathetically, or discordantly can never evolve into more positive states.

It provides these examples for various natural and human entities, asserting that crying prevents evolution into more uplifting or accomplished forms.
Fragments Of Love
The document is a poem describing how small fragments or pieces can be enough to achieve great things.

The overall message is that even the smallest pieces or parts can make a significant difference.
The Greatest Curse
This document discusses the idea of the "greatest curse" through a series of comparisons. In each comparison, something positive or fruitful occurs (rain falls, waves kiss the shore, bees inhabit hives, etc.) but the result is still lacking or insufficient in some way. The overarching theme is that no matter what positive conditions or actions exist, the truest or highest results are not yet achieved if some essential piece is still missing or unrealized.
After A Tired Day In Office
The document describes how after a long tiring day in the office, everything seemed more vibrant and alive to the author on their way home. Various natural elements like the sun, wind, leaves, birdsong and river seemed more brilliant. Places like meadows, clouds, valleys and dance floors seemed more lively. Everyday things like bread, cave paintings, rain, boats and a baby's tears seemed more impactful. Personal items like a ring, a lover's body, mother's lap and a photo of God seemed to have new meaning. After over 12 hours of work, the author felt the world was recreated and things that seemed dead at work now seemed alive again.

It continues giving examples and ultimately states that the entire universe would be useless compared to one's perception of God, mother, and beloved.

Yours Truly In Dirt
The document describes the unhygienic and unkempt state of a person's body as seen in a mirror. Their short, sharp hair is covered in dandruff, their lips are chapped, nostrils contain hardened mucus, ears have yellow earwax, and their neck has dirt streaks. Their underarms smell unpleasant, teeth are discolored, palms are scribbled on, and ragged clothes have holes while ants eat stuck honey on their shoulder bone. Their sports shoes have a coal tar lining, and they moan in dismay and lost hope at their unwashed and unpolished appearance reflected back at them.
Yours Only Forever
This poem refutes negative things others may have said about the person's beauty and qualities. Over 12 lines, the speaker asks "who told you" negative qualities such as being ugly, fat, or having swollen lips, before asserting that to them the person is beautiful in a variety of ways such as having golden honey hair, passionate breath, and skin as resplendent as a lotus. The speaker says that even if the whole world condemned the person, to them they would still be the most fascinating and lovable person, with the speaker's heart belonging to them forever.
Your Love For Me
The document expresses the author's profound pride in their love, which is compared to lasting natural phenomena rather than fleeting experiences. Over 14 stanzas, the author states that their love was not like changing shapes of the moon, violent storms, burning candles, or decaying scents but rather enduring stars, gentle winds, unrelenting fires, and fragrant lotuses. Similarly, it was not like abandoning bird mothers, violent rain, or transient commercials, but rather nurturing human mothers, rejuvenating oceans, and impactful fables. In the end, the author states their love was not a fleeting heartbeat but rather an immortal soul that gave new beginnings and perpetual grip on life.
Your Kiss
The passage describes a kiss as having many profound and transformative effects on the speaker. The kiss is depicted through elaborate metaphors that portray it as enlightening, liberating, and filling every part of the speaker's being with warmth, beauty, happiness, and love.

The kiss seems to profoundly change the speaker's perspective by infusing their existence with joy, fulfillment and a sense of connection to something greater.
Your Immortal Slave
The document is a poetic expression of love for another person. It describes the speaker's love lingering and bonding with different parts of the person's body, from their hair down to their feet.

It feels closest to God while on their soul, and becomes the speaker's "immortal slave" when on their feet, devoted to them for current and future lifetimes.
Your Immortal Beats
The poem describes the speaker finding their true love and soulmate amidst the infinite possibilities in the universe. Through vivid descriptions of senses like sight, sound, touch, and smell, the poem explores all the qualities and attributes the speaker's love possesses that make them uniquely special and the only one that truly captivates the speaker, from their mesmerizing tunes and ravishing hair to their heavenly fragrance and immortal heart that bonds with the speaker's. The poem suggests their love transcends lifetimes and was destined even before birth.
Your Heart Said It All
The document expresses how a person's body parts and presence can communicate deep feelings and attraction without words. Each line describes how a different part of the person, such as their eyes, lips, cheeks, hair, hands, etc. expressed their attraction and enchanted the writer through subtle gestures and movements. The writing portrays the person as having an irresistible charm and passion that consumed the writer and filled them with love through every part of their being, without needing to say a word.
Your Godly Sweat
This document describes the power and effects of a single droplet of sweat from a godly being. In over 20 sentences, each beginning with "Just a...", it elaborates on how a single droplet was enough to profoundly impact and transform the narrator's senses, emotions, existence, and purpose when it came into contact with different parts of their body. The droplet is described as having golden color and emanating heavenly fragrance, freshness, felicity, and power. It left the narrator feeling enlightened, happy, sensuous, and driven to benevolent causes.
Young At Heart
While nature and objects undergo changes with time and seasons, losing their vibrant colors, forms, or appearances, they still maintain their core abilities and essences. The leaves of a tree become bare in autumn but the tree remains alive. Birds molt their feathers but still have the power of flight. Though bananas become dilapidated after peeling, they are still nourishing to eat. And though the elderly appear frail while walking with canes, they retain the ability to love and dream as they are young at heart.
Young And Innocent At Heart
The document describes how various natural and man-made objects undergo changes as they age but still retain their essential qualities. Leaves lose their color in autumn but trees remain alive. Birds molt feathers but can still fly. Food loses visual appeal but retains taste and nutrition. Precious metals lose shine but keep monetary value. While the elderly appear frail, they still possess the ability to love and dream as they remain young at heart.
Without Her Hands In Mine
The document describes various methods the author uses to try and erase their name from different surfaces and objects, including soil, skin, lips, walls, trees, cakes, paper, mirrors, tables, hair, pencils, beaches, windshields, eyes, maps, records, checks, friends' hearts, and bones. However, when trying to erase their name from "hers", the author is transformed into ashes and left for the afterlife as punishment, this time without her hands in mine.
You'll Have To Stay Alive
The document provides reasons for staying alive, listing natural phenomena, memories, relationships, and experiences that one would miss out on if not alive. It encourages staying alive for the sake of leaves, dreams, raindrops, memories, jokes, clothes, earth, feelings of ecstasy when alone, birds, dolphins, roses, butterflies, those who admire your accomplishments, religious idols, those who help you cross streets, cows who provide milk, winds that allow one to breathe, and one's parents who raised them. Most importantly, it says one must stay alive for the sake of the author, as their heart would stop if the other's heartbeat separated from their own.
You Were Nothing
The document discusses humanity's insignificance before God. It states that regardless of one's status or abilities, all people are equally created by God. However, it emphasizes that before God's supreme and eternal power, humanity is nothing. This nothingness is described using various analogies of transient or worthless things like matchsticks, flies, bones, and dust. The document repeats this message of human equality before God but ultimate insignificance using different examples in each paragraph.
You Simply Couldn't Hide
The document is a lengthy list describing ways that someone tries to hide negative qualities or desires through superficial means, but ultimately fails. It uses vivid, dramatic language to portray the person as deeply troubled and attempting to conceal malicious, sinister, or corrupt attributes of their body, mind and soul through cosmetic means rather than addressing the underlying issues.
You Resembled The Creator Divine
The document describes how the actions and qualities of the subject resemble aspects of nature, religious figures, and positive ideals. When the subject smiles, dances, dreams, or embraces, they resemble the sun, forests, clouds, waterfalls, and patriotism. In general terms, the subject is compared to divine or celestial things through their various moods and behaviors.
You Only Tell Me What To Do; O! Almighty Lord.
The document discusses the conflicting messages one receives about worshipping parents. On one hand, they are told to worship parents unconditionally. On the other hand, they are told not to worship those who commit harmful acts like harming nature, discriminating against others, being selfish, etc. It questions how to decide whether to worship parents or not when parents themselves sometimes engage in these negative behaviors. The document provides many examples of such behaviors parents might exhibit that would conflict with unconditional worship. It ultimately asks God which rule they should follow regarding worshipping parents.
You Lived In My Heart
The document describes how love lived in every part of the speaker's body. Love lived in their eyes when they saw the world, ears when they listened, feet when they walked, fingers when they wrote, stomach when they ate, nails when they scratched, tongue when they spoke, nostrils when they breathed, veins when their blood pumped, throat when they drank water, lips when they smiled, bones as they grew, teeth when they chewed, mind when they thought, scalp when they touched their hair, dreams and fantasies, the lines on their palm, sweat as it dripped, scent as day turned to night, and most importantly in their heart where there was no room for anything else.
You Don't Need To Teach
This document lists various natural phenomena and living things, stating that for each one "you don't need to teach" them how to act or behave naturally. It describes the natural behaviors of clouds, roses, desert sands, oceans, snakes, spiders, the sun, frogs, the moon, crocodiles, birds, eyelids, winds, conscience, fish, trees, avalanches, truth, children, and the heart without needing any instruction on how to do so.
You Could Yet Make Him Happy
The document suggests ways one could make God happy through selfless acts of compassion and service to humanity. It states that God does not need anything as his power and presence permeate all aspects of the universe. However, it says one could make God happy by embracing and nourishing those in pain, feeding the underprivileged, helping the destitute, promoting righteousness, enlightening others, supporting mankind, helping the blind, uniting the bereaved, and showering the unfortunate with love. The overall message is that serving humanity in a spirit of unconditional love and compassion could bring God happiness.
You Can't Strangulate Yourself And Still Lead Life
The document contains a series of statements describing things that cannot be done if one wants to fully experience and lead life. Each statement provides an example of something contradictory, such as "You can't compress your fingers and still prolifically write" or "You can't stand in freezing snowflakes and still sweat like a horse." The overall message is that in order to fully live life, one cannot constrain or limit oneself in the ways described, and must face life's experiences openly without strangulating one's emotions or acting as a coward.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
