Let us play the game of life in highest of the spirits

Life is beautiful, bountiful and jaunty-full. It has more and more in store which leaves more and more simplistic thoughts in the mind. Most importantly, life is a playground where players perform, win or lose, fall or rise, exalt or sadden – but no matter what, players play. That’s perhaps a very simple connotation of “Gita” in my words which is very closely connected to my earlier post. Indeed, I urge everyone to play, play and play. There will be moments of agony, there will be moments of dejection, there will be feelings of non-acceptance, there will be crave for the ultimate contentment – believe me, either of these or some other worries will always be there for this is human. I am not sure how one would or rather one should react in these situations. May be, music is one thread which most of us tend to resort to in distress, strain and loneliness. Here, I present some beautiful Hindi songs of all time which take the soul to a new level and make the life so meaningful:

1. Kisi ki muskurahato pe
2. Jina yaha marna yaha
3. Musafir hoon yaaro
4. Zindagi kaisi hai paheli
5. Diye jalte hai
6. Ek pyaar ka nagma hai
7. Ek din bik jayega
8. Sach mere yaar hai
9. Ruk jaana nahi tu kahi
10. Main zindagi ka saath nibhaata

Lovely post and an even lovelier collection of songs. How come the love of old songs - I thought nobody below 40 listens to them anymore !!!!

Very right. Play on, play on. The joys and sorrows may come mixed, but then that's the joy of playing. The joys will be all the much sweeter for those sorrows.

Oh yes, Ramesh - the joys will be much sweeter, the entire game of this life is so exciting... isn't it?

The love of old songs just drives me crazy, grown up listening so many beautiful compositions and lyrics, those were the songs with soul and meaning. Weren't those? There are a few like me whose likes are much more older than contemporaries... :) Will try to post links of some more immortal songs later. Thanks for the beautiful comment!

Lovely songs and that's vishal as usual. You are a CAD Idol. ;)
O
n the play, that's like a word engraved on stone. It will hurt less and be more joyful, if we take everything as part of the play. Not a cake in the plate but requires a change in attitude. Humans have gotten so attached to the play that we have started to own it. That ownership puts us in Agony, pain and sadness.

@ Kapil - Nice to see you back in action. Thanks for the kind words. That is too flattering. ;) In fact, there are so many great people around us in CAD. There is so much to learn.

Your powerful words says it all. Change is attitude towards this philosophy can perhaps heal almost all the agony, pain and sadness!
