Therefore, wander !

Therefore, wander !

Nice words in the Aitareya Brahmana 7.15 (a section of the Vedas)

Found it somewhere. Copied here. 

"There is no happiness for him who does not travel!
Living in a society of competitive humans even the best souls become corrupted. Therefore, wander!
The feet of the wanderer are like flowers, his soul is expanding and maturing fruits; and all sins are destroyed by the fatigues of wandering. Therefore, wander!
The fortune, of the one who sits, also sits down; of the one who sleep, sleeps;
but the fortune of the one who raises, raises; and of the one who moves on, moves on.
Therefore, wander!”

  1. mere har safar me maine paya hai..
    khud ko khoya kuch ,
    aur kuch naya mujhme samaya hai..
    isi tarah kaash..
    mitiyala rang chadta rahe mujhpe..
    paanv tale jo aai hai..
    na ye teri hai na meri hai..
    ye waise badi haseen hai..
    iski khwahishein zaheen hain..
    isi matiyale rang se main nau-rang bana lungi..
    aur phir.. jeene ki khatir..
    isi safar me panah lungi..
