White Lotus: The hexagon of spirituality

Neeraj Saxena

When I posted this previous post, there was a sudden urge to preview it before saving. And even before I could realise, I was looking at the new template provided by Blogger. This one seemed nice in the preview, the only one I checked out really. Somehow the preview presented me with an option that I couldn't resist. Sorry for an inane, `uncoloured' post. Or is it off-colour? Yes, it is all about white, the colour of peace, serenity, the eternal colour I have chosen for myself in life after flirting with all others... the soothing colour you willy nilly wear each time after you leave your body. Oops sorry if I am sounding dark. I was only talking about the liberation. And when liberation comes, perhaps 30 years from now, I would be fully ready. Hopefully, I would have served the purpose for which my mind has been liberated with a whitewash. Until then, I will be happy to live in the white, empty spaces. What is it with the glowing radiation of white light and its connection with the angels, fairies, spirits, spirituality? White is also what you adorn when you leave the mortal world... White again is the colour of the Brahma and other gods! It also is the colour of the goddess of wisdom and intellect Saraswati who sits on Lotus... 
Usher in White then for knowledge, for purity, serenity, light, peace, simplicity, truth, humility and flexibility.
