A Meditation Class

Re-visit

My beloved wife's friend introduced the class
And the conductor is an Indian 'Guru'.
All the worshipers were kneeling while we entered the shrine?
The Guru said;"Close your eyes and concentrate on breathing,
Take in and take out."
What a fantastic exercise and I realized that we see everything when eyes closed?
Bombing in Afghanistan and mass blood shed in Syria,
Arrears of my house rent,pending light,water & gas bills
Penalties and fines from different sources.
And I feel very sorry for her,she groans a little after her day's strenuous work but still counts the breathe it seems.
And I am bit scared that she might go to Nirvana straight
Leaving all the burdens on my shoulder?
She cooks and wash dirty linen
And she sweeps the floor with my sins too.
Never mind if she finds a better place
Where there's no sorrow at all?

It's not easy. It takes dedication, and lots of practice.
