Shrine of Heart

Not all holy shrines are
meant for same purpose –
there are those meant
to pray for wealth and pleasure – bhukti
some for skill and knowledge – yukti
some for forbearance and power –shakti 
few for liberation – mukti
and rare ones  for devotion – bhakti
whereas, the wise ones seek
the shrine within in meditation
with yukti of Self-knowledge
to gain mukti from thoughts,
unconditional bhakti for the Lord and
Shakti to abide in the Self!
All in one holy shrine – the heart!
===========================================Quote
“The traveler has to knock at every alien door to come to his own, and he has to wonder through all the outer worlds to reach the innermost shrine at the end.” -  Rabindranath Tagore
===========================================Humor
Smart Alex went to an interview.
Interviewer: Imagine that you are in the fifteenth floor.  Suddenly fire bursts out, and there are many people who are struggling to survive.  In that situation, what will you do ?
Smart Alex: Oye! I will stop imagining!!!!
