EMPTY VESSELS MAKE THE MOST NOISE? – NOT REALLY.

Cling, clang, cling, clang  - go the ‘empty vessels’ - non-stop, as they exchange glances with each other – more so when they start ‘speaking’ to each other.

What are they speaking, what are they saying…..Listen, Listen, Listen :

’Look at how empty we are…the others have milk, syrup, curries, yoghurt in them – we have nothing in ourselves....we feel so empty….others are made of silver and gold – we are just made of ‘Stainless Steel’….….Sigh.’

But, wait a minute…you guys are ‘STAINLESS STEEL’ – its not so bad after all. You don't need regular polishing like the ones in gold and silver as their glow fades away. You GLOW all the time – isn’t that cool…Evergreen, Everglow.

Being empty is not such a ‘incomplete’ thing after all – for eg, a flute is EMPTY too, but when I blow into it, it makes such Beautiful music.  Now, you tell me, is being EMPTY such a ‘bad’ thing after all…

Emptiness is Beauty, Emptiness is Music, Emptiness is Nothingness, Emptiness is Space – its in that Emptiness, that we are able to feel a sense of Peace and Fulfillment.

Let us not ‘clog’ or ‘fill’ ourselves with all kinds of liquids of the world – syrup, milk, liquor, juices, carbonated drinks, etc, so much so, that we find ourselves unable to EMPTY ourselves, when we really need to – as part of the’ Detox’ process…

Let us clear our vessels of all blockages that halt the flow of oxygen (life) into us.

Let us clear our vessels of all blockages so that we can once again, breath the fresh air around us…

Let us CLEAR OURSELVES OF ALL NEGATIVITY that ATTRACT US SO MUCH TO THEM,

TILL WE ARE JUST UNABLE TO RESIST THEM, just like the syrup, liquor and carbonated drinks….

Let us be as EMPTY as we can, allowing the ‘DIVINE’ music to play through us – well, in this case, let HIM decide the choice of Music – be it jazz, pop, classical or rock….and trust me, He knows when to play what…He cannot go wrong…for He is the All Perfect Maestro of this Universe…

Let us NOT create NOISE when EMPTY, but rather be still, in thought of the Divine Musician, allowing Him to play the music of His choice through us….

EMPTY VESSELS indeed.
