Seekers

The process of seeking is a beautiful journey which takes a mumukshu to various places. He/She discovers unexplored spaces/aspects in the process and keeps learning. This journey brings a variety of experiences, some of them filled with joy/ecstasy while others are bitter. The bitter experiences are the one which brings the greatest learning. In spite of the experiences the journey must be continued till the destination is reached. As with all journeys there is lot of excitement in the beginning, new experiences come every day, everything looks rosy and there is great enthusiasm. Over the time the newness is all gone and it appears that nothing worthwhile is happening. This is the time when doubt sets in and comes the first real test, to continue or give up and search/seek something else. A true seeker will continue inspite of everything and will not be swayed by these doubts.

Everyone of us is a mumukshu, some know what they seek and are on the path while some search for the path itself and while the rest just exist.The journey must be completed by everyone, some might take few days while some many years.
