Free The Sun-bird~


Image result for battle of minds


We have arsenals within us,
    not of guns and bombs,
but, of ill will, impatience and anger
Dismantling the weapons
  is an effective way
 to curb war
   than confronting it head on.

This sun-bird of the heart
Looks for ways to be heard…
eventually causes the mind
to breathe peace...

Connect
Connect with yourself
let the peaceful warrior
rush to comfort your soul.

Life becomes a lot easier....

    How clearly you describe the war within. At times I flush with anger and impatience (though never with ill will). and I wrestle with them. I must ask for the sunbird's help. I pray everyone does.

    "We have arsenals within us," True, true, so very true. May the sun-bird within rise and sing. Love these beautiful imagery of arsenal and sun-bird. The poem is a beauty Panchali di.

    How rich and contented we could be if we did not spend countless millions on weapons of war and harm.

    May we curb the arsenals within and put love and kindness into the world, so that it comes back into our own.

    we become phoenix sometime we find inner peace only from our ashes...
    "let the peaceful warrior
    rush to comfort your soul." makes many sense...
