Aham Brahmasmi

A few months after my birth , I was left alone to crawl on the floor. I started crawling and soon I got my fellow crawlers. The path was safe and the crawling was self taught. It was almost like crawling over the bed of roses.

Soon I began to walk where I observed people, made friends, fought with them, laughed with them. I cried in agony with the fear of defeat but sooner I triumphed with victory. When I got hurt and was bleeding to death , a beautiful lady came to my rescue and nursed me back to life

Soon I increased my pace , a horse came hounding me. It was black wild stallion. The more I triedto tame it , the more it hurt me. I was tired and sapless and the stallion tramped me to death. My beautiful lady appeared from the sun's rays and transformed into a man with olympian physique as she approached me. He taught the fight and the patience , he nourished me with the architecture of thought. Soon I got on to the stallion with no saddle and kicked it for eternal journey.

Sitting on the back of my horse, I could see utopia enticing me with its beauty of life. The more I get nearer , the more I was hampered by the ghastly size of the mountain that was haltering me from my destiny. My thoughts started inviting god and my eyes could see a strong man growing old as he was approaching me. He was my trainer who has grown old with wisdom. He told me the story of the biggest mountain called fear, he told me the story of life, memories. He told me if I could dare to reach my destiny and get nearer, I could pass through the mountain like it never existed.

I asked him who he was. He smiled and tied a blind fold around my eyes. He started narrating his life but the voice was my coming from my heart.
