Magic.... again

Her heart was wringing in pain and eyes were full of tears. It’s all about her suffering because of the black magic done on her family. And she was looking at me for comfort and hope.

.............................................................

Generally, theatre magic is all about time taken to trick / fool our senses and mind. We pay to get fooled.

The only magic show (amateur) I’ve attended so far was the one which was a part of the celebration of a child’s first birthday. It was sickening to see the show birds whose wings were ruthlessly cut and kept in a huge cage at the backstage.

I must mention here that ‘The Prestige’ is a must film to watch where Chris Nolan through power performances from Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale, had mercilessly shown us the ugly corridors of magic and the influence of negative emotions on one’s self.

Mind is a pure entity by default. It is we who make it dirty with thoughts of jealousy, hatred and anger using our freewill. And we refuse to believe or accept the ‘key’ that removes this dirt.

Have you read about Milarepa? If not, please read.

For me, Milarepa, the black magician turned a Perfect One, continues to be one of the most inspiring personalities to date. My fascination, respect and love for this great Man have not diminished a bit even after so many years.

I comforted her that no dark force in this creation can supersede the magical power of love & light.

For the time being, her eyes shone brightly in understanding.

I sincerely wish to possess a powerful magic wand to eliminate all sufferings and pains of all hearts.
