“Tune Mujhe Chhua, Main Ban Gai Dua”

Said one hand to the other. Said one eyelid to the other. As they came together in the position of prayer.
Hindus. Muslims. Christians- just about anyone from any religion; when they pray they fold their hands and close their. For that’s how we communicate with our “Higher Self”. The self they call-God.

Touch is the most primal of all acts.
A newborn clings to its mother’s chest.
It holds its father’s fingers.
It grapples with its mother’s breast.
Its hands touch each other.
Its tongue touches its lips.
Touch is the beginning of life.

Touch is a powerful act.
When you love something you touch it.
When you are in awe of something you want to touch it.
When you fear you touch and when you want to banish fear you touch it.
When you want to know you touch it. When you don’t want to know you touch it.

Touch can be the beginning of a beginning- making love begins with touching.
Or the beginning of an end- molestations, rapes and suicides.

You touch the photograph of a long lost friend, lover, and relative.
You touch a phone to get in touch.
You touch their feet to seek blessings.
You touch when you are in love
You touch in anger and touch in pain.
You touch your cheek to wipe those tears
You touch its hands to wipe its fears.

Words and thoughts have the power to touch too.
And they are more profound and long lasting.
Touch a life today.
Yours. His. Just about anyone’s.
