Grief

Published December 25, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Do not hurt anybody; not with your actions; specially not with words coming out of your mouth. Always treat people with respect and dignity. Love them.
~ Maa (Late Grandmother)

^{Maine Sikke Feke The Nadiyon Mein – Osho Jain}

I still grieve.

I miss her.

There are times when I feel she is around.

There are times when I sense her blessings.

There are times when i remember bits and pieces of conversations we exchanged.

There are times i smile when i remember her laughing, smiling, … shining.

I miss my grandmother.

Selfishly, I wish she was still here for a little longer.

Today, when i heard a guy with a mic say,

“grief is the price you pay for Love.”

He couldn’t be more accurate.

With hope.

The vacuum; The wealth of grief she left me with — will forever live with me.

I, cherish it.

I, get to keep it for myself.

May I never lose it.

May she never let me go!

मा.

Namaste.

Today is the youngest you will ever be

Everyday, once in a while, breathe on purpose, with purpose or without.
~ Musicpervs

^{Angie McMahon – Serotonin}

Go look yourself in the mirror today and look at your photographs from 10 years ago.

You will know.

You have changed!

Good chances are that 10 years from today you will again be a completely new person.

In 10 years,

things you worry about,

things that keep you awake all night,

things that feels like nightmare,

things you dread,

things that is killing you, hurting you,

things that are weighing you down,

will have absolutely

0 consequences,

0 effects,

0 significance,

0 weight,

0 value.

For,

after 50, no matter how beautiful,… preety you were; your beauty will have zero currency value.

After 60, no matter how prestigious life you must have lived; your status game goes to trash

After 70, the house you’ve built with your hard-earned blood, sweat and tears will not be as valuable when the knee pain starts creeping in.

After 80, no matter if you are a billionaire, your life will be limited to couple bucks of medicines and a strict diet routine.

Gist of it all:

time will never be ‘just-right’,

time will never wait,

time only and only leads us to our aged, weathered, weaker self.

Which is why,

Stop!

And, cherish whatever you have at this minute, the hours and the day.

Work on your gratitude muscle and spend your mental bandwidth all wide-awake, with care and a little bit of harmless selfishness.

Today is the youngest you will ever be.

Sleep on it.

Namaste.

Sthita-Prajna

Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water.
Zen Proverb

^{Sweet Heat Lightning – Gregory Alan Isakov}

Geeta, Chapter 2, Verse 54.

Arjun, curious, asked — How does an enlightened person

talk?

sit?

walk?

Krishna unpacks — a person of steady wisdom.

There is no high, no low.

No pleasure, no pain.

No sway, no downfalls.

No expectations, no attachments.

No fear, no anger.

No status, no power, no money.

No past, no future.

Absolutely nothing but —

you;

y.o.u.r quiet existence.

Namaste.

Mid Thirties. Go Figure

Published November 6, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Wisdom — is not proportionate to the years you’ve pissed on this land.
~ Musicpervs

^{Mannu – Jhol}

Trust yourself.

Deliberate assiduity calling.

People tell.

People talk.

Unsolicited advice rampant.

Unfair judgements nakedly screaming at your face.

Understand, what matters, matter!

You’re at your mid thirties. Go Figure!

Namaste.

What is the most important thing right now?

Published October 16, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Your mind is your biggest enemy.
Musicpervs

Your mind wants to keep you safe.

She tries to make you as comfortable as you can be.

She wants you to have less stress.

less pain, less to none problems,

have a happy life or at least the feel of it.

She wants to protect you from everything that frightens you.

You might be going through rough waves.

People questioning your character,

belittling you.

hurting you.

Visibly your brain is deep fried.

Ruminating thoughts — draining you,

sucking your energy,

turning you off.

These suckers try intimidation,

terrifies,

gaslights,

pressures,

and step over you at every opportunities they get.

Startling you,

keeping your senses tingling.

keeping you wide awake!

The antidote to all these crap is to come-to-senses.

Realize.

Actualize.

Accept, everything is a facade!

Far far-fetched from the reality.

Ask, what is the most important thing to me right now?

Ask often.

Ask when there’s emptiness.

Ask when you sense a drift.

Ask when you have rumination.

Ask when you need help.

Namaste.

Are you grateful?

Published October 2, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

Desire is a contract that you make with yourself to be unhappy until you get what you want.
Naval Ravikant

^{Lost Myself – SYML}

These days I have been hooked into the World History Videos.

It is hard for me to fathom the fact that no-one had hot shower until 50 years ago.

The electricity.

The entertainment.

Technology, the amenities, modern medicine, and the infrastructure we have today are mere fragments of imaginations for the ones who lived 100 years ago.

Someone said it right, “We are living like Kings.”

Yet.

We are never objectively happy.

Subjectively worse.

To top it off, the rampant social media; the flex culture in tandem bringing in the worst of us. Nakedly. Ignorantly. Unknowingly.

Are you grateful?

Namaste.

Is, Was

Published September 18, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

More is lost by indecision than wrong decision
Marcus Tullius Cicero

^{Chezile – Beanie}

Robin is an ordinary 88 years old man just sitting on a park — all by himself.

When asked about how he feels at his age. He says, “Well… it feels less than 88… I don’t feel 88. It sort of comes up upon me.”

He further adds, “The older you get, the q.u.i.c.k.e.r it goes. and you have to make the most of it.”

There I remembered my Grand Ma.

When asked about if he has any regrets in his life.

He goes,”I suppose, I do,… yes. Not marrying the right girl!”

He digs deeper confronting he had the opportunity but he was too slow. He stresses, “Be Decisive and Go For It if you feel it’s right.”

There I remembered my Wife.

As naked as it can be, there will be one day when my ‘Is’ will become ‘Was’

When, stuff I stress about today will mean Nothing!

When, people or things that mean world to me today will be a distant memory.

Live immediately! One step at a time.

Namaste.

Not everything in life is in your hands

Published September 4, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

An easy life is mere a concept. Far from the truth. Lie. Destination without roads.
Musicpervs.

^{Me and The Devil – Soap&Skin}

Not everyday will be a Monday.

Not everyday will be the bad ones too.

Not everything in life is in your hands.

Not everything in life is promised your ways.

Memento Vivere.

Speak Less

Published May 22, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

The more you use your voice without care and caution, the more substance you spend at the expense of your integrity and self-worth.
~ author

^{The Hanging Tree’ James Newton Howard ft. Jennifer Lawrence}

Speak Less.

Actions speak.

Silence serves you.

You — Grind.

Namaste.
