Set Free in The Wild

Set Free in The Wild

1. Each day seems so happy
If we live our life full of wonder.
And here I am with an urge
To pack my backpacks and hit the bleary trails.
Through patience which I built with time
And lavishly grown inside my heart
To be set free in the wild.

8. Nature is always an unerring cradle of inspiration.
However, I was compelled and waited too long indoors.
With an audacious call, I now breakdown the walls.
Filtering my thoughts and emotions-----
I put my boots on and shed my old skin too
To walk away from the neonside of the asphalt jungle
And just to be set free in the wild.

15. To know how it feels; "To be set free in the wild"
I follow the sunlight as it falls on hills and meadows.
I lie on the moors, gaze up the sky and say:
Let my mind expand into its commodious,
Let an infinite sky awake a sky inside my mind.
I sit right by the river and mingle with its ceaseless flow.
Moreover, I stand by the waterfall to purify my soul with its healing laughter.

22. Soon, I begin to glee, illuminate with every joy and be awake at all moments.
The gaze becomes the very gaze of compassion.
The river builds the wisdom channels inside my mind.
The waterfall makes me even more peaceful and tranquil.
The more I experience this freedom, the more I stay vigilant
In a place which I call an intimate sacred space.
And I am precise to be set free in the wild.

29. I now am chemist of my own bliss.
I derive the strength from the unshakable hills and cliffs.
To wait for my patience to shine.
The exhausted mind is calm with an ease
Into the nature which I call simple paradise where freedom calls.
Above all, its time to run and leave and my things behind
To wonder with my freedom which is free to find in the wild.

Wish I Had a Winter Coat


Wish I Had a Winter Coat

1. Seasons pass in a blink of God's eye.
An autumn had arrived; for when winter has nighed.
What I feel is only blue black cold!
Wish I had a winter coat.

5. I look out from the broken window.
The mountains---I've dreamed of concealing under the snow.
As the blizzard rages,
The cracked heart aches.

9. If the night could hear, I would tell a story or two.
Of a day that has been through hues of blue.
When we don't know for what to prepare.
If we are on an uncertain time of the year.

13. In such an emptiness, I lie under the starlit sky.
For as long as space exists, soothing stars pass by.
And I wish If I had a winter coat tonight.
I would feel the warmth of it inside.

17. A new day dawns, the sun will rise.
Through the clouds, the sun will shine.
A cold wind blows, rest assured.
Earnestly searching-----mile after mile-----the lost hope----- is heard.

21. Wish I had a winter coat, the joy of having it, would be immeasurable.
And I'd go to the mountains, burn all the troubles.
Life---it seems an endless roller coaster.
But the things always fall into a place in a right time.-----I remember.

I Am Not The Only Traveler


I Am Not The Only Traveler

I am not the only traveler,
Who gets lost in a world brimful of sights unseen.
I search for the winding path anew
To see the world unfold.

I am not the only traveler,
Who sees the world this way.
There is a place---
Where I bring my mind into the state of calm.


I am not the only traveler,
Who wanders in the kingdom of great unknown.
I make my way on my own two feet to a place,
Where I release my mind from its grasping.
I am not the only traveler,
Who leaves home for the open air.
I follow my young heart to a place,
Where I loosen up my mind into the true nature of mind.

I am not the only traveler,
Who brings the scattered mind mind back home.
Then, I realize, how much I enjoyed being present at there
With a good heart and forever will be.

A Walk In The Woods



"A Walk In The Woods"


Through the Jungle
Through the Dark
I walk far away from the World,
A hostile Society

To the place
Where I free my Mind.
Where I am healed with the Tonic of Wilderness..
I feel I may never have Enough.

What a profound Feeling of Beauty
As I Bow before the Trees
I embrace their protective Bark
As if it’s going to be my Last.

I stand with Nature,
Almighty, Mysterious, Endlessly Wild
And I am Free in my Recluse
Exploring My Solitude
With Endless Possibilities.

I Took A Little Journey To The Unknown


I Took A Little Journey To The Unknown


Today,
I stretched my legs and went on a hike.
I took a winding path
Gallivanting solo as The Sun.



All of a sudden
I spied the Loveliness of The Wild...
Lofty mountains of lush trees.
I crossed the river as it runs.

Tangible Contact with Nature



"Birds singing on the banks of the narrow streams, trees smell, branches creaking, insects humming, feet shuffling through needle-like road, animal scents, earthy smell..."





Tangible contact with nature: it is not about fabricating proficiency, it is all about courage, patience, challenge and enigma.







Experiencing wild nature is powerful incentive for me to learn new things now. Being alone in the profound forest, being all alone at the edge of the mountain can set us off on the path that changes the way we think ourselves, our purpose in life, and the way we live our lives.








Nature brought me into direct contact with the elements-earth, air, water, and water. It unclothes the means we have developed to protect ourselves from their impact. It ameliorates my strength, confidence and self-determination.








Hiking the mountains has become favorite thing for me now. I solely hike alone and I like it the most. Its an opportunity to know the nature in a good way. At the same time, I love to make memories with the nature and the memories with nature are like now spurs of the moment.







With an increased urbanization, the difference between our lifestyle and those of our evolutionary past is now a distant apart. Humans now, are busy in materialistic world and they have no time for nature. Unlike my ordinary life, I can't afford big expenses holidays. So, I escape from bustle of the city and go away to the quiet of the country most of my weekend.







Hiking, a walk in the mountains or woods frees my mind and its an evidence that nature actually soothes the savage beast.












Forest bathing has improved my physical health through
-spending time in the fresh air increases energy levels
-regular opportunities for physical exercises
-relaxing nervous system by being in calm, natural environment
-increasing stamina and fitness.





So, to sum it up, it has longitudinal benefits on us.

Out of Doors



To walk in the woods is to celebrate our evolutionary heritages as they stimulate our thinking. They deepen our understanding and we should appreciate them for that. Moreover, walk in the woods plays a significant role as it encapsulates our struggles that one need to go through in order to better themselves.





Spending time in the woods isn't just pleasant, it is significantly restorative.








If you back in history, then you would understand how important is walking!? Our forefathers used to walk for days to get basic needs. They used to walk for days to get education. They used to walk for days carrying sick people to the health post. Now, freedom from walking has been craved. Only few unfortunate ones are forced to walk.

The history of walking is now paradox. It is so called an integral to human development. The walking habit is ceased abruptly. Walking is an analog in this digital world. However, it is more profound too. People choose to walk instead of ride.

Traveling to Kuri Village


When one travels, it’s an experience that they want to share with others. They want to tell a story of the things they have seen. Most people tell this story through photographs, videos or even travel blogs.



It’s not always bragging but it is about sharing the sheer beauty and magnanimity of our surroundings. One of the finest and self satisfying adventures of my life so far was “Traveling to Kuri Village”. This has brought extra joy in my life.







Picturesque hilly terrains and mountains are considered to be the ultimate adventure. From hiking hilly terrains to trekking snow covered peaks, Nepal is choke full of iconic outdoor adventures. At the same time, the thrills and excitements of these adventures are unparallel.







It was quite an experience to see those huge mountains up close. I love and adore mountains not to prove anything to anybody but to remind myself that how small and insignificant am I in the scheme of larger things. Whenever I have nowhere to go, mountains are my go to partner.






The desire to see those huge mountains was fulfilled after tripping the places which were completely destroyed by a 2015 earthquake. Those places are still under reconstruction. I felt very sad after seeing the villages of Sindhupalchok.






Keeping the thoughts on my mind along the Arniko Highway to Jiri Highway, I finally reached to Kuri Village. Kuri Village as many of us know, is situated at eastern hilly region of  Nepal in Dolakha district. Dolakha is 132 km from Kathmandu and 18 km off to Kuri Village from Charikot. Local vehicles do not reach to Kuri Village but on reserve it may reach to Kuri Village from where on 1hr hike is Kalinchok Temple, on top of the mountain, around 13000ft above the sea level. The temple on the top of 3842m from the sea level is exquisite to get lost. It is part of Gauri Sankar conservation Area from where Sun Koshi and Tama Koshi rivers are originated. Hiking or Trekking to Kuri village can be back breaking.







Mountains, sometimes, are not considered to be the source of serenity. They more often teach you more than anyone else. The perfidious curlings of hikes or treks, the fights for basic in life, the veer gratification of having fruits on the top of the mountain after walking straight up to the mountain, the mind blowing winds, the chirping of the birds, the steep dives of the valleys, the capricious moods of the clouds, the freshness of icy water like washing away all your sorrows. Everything has a message for you. Diving into that emptiness, you can completely find new you. That is why, little breaks are so important to move on.




















If you want to know yourself, then travel all alone. If it is hard to make, travel with your loved ones or close friends.
