Hi Guys ,
I think this would be interesting for eveyone ( Qazi fans ) to read
As told to Anubha Sawhney
My first brush with spirituality happened when I was a young boy. My father a lawyer once visited Ajmer - e - Sharif and came back a changed person. For 7 months he stayed out of the house, lived on chapatti and water and searched for the ultimate truth.When he came back he gave up all material and started living a simple life. Everyday he would organize a langar at home where the poor were fed free of cost. The practice continues till today. Soon enough I began helping out with the langar. Where other boys my age were charting out career plan. I was busy feeding the hungry. My father's friends began telling him I was wasting my youth. He replied that I would get what none of their sons can even dream of. I guess he has been proved right.
I have always been a dreamer; but I have also believed in the power of my dreams. I don't put my faith in lucky charms and magic spells. I think if your heart is clean, good fortune can never elude you. If u play the game honestly, you are bound to win. If u respect others they will respect you. If you're hardworking, nobody can stop u from getting ahead, and if you are talented, nothing can keep you down.
I am just 20 yrs old--- I don't really have a view on the problems in Kashmir but they do make me sad. I am not a politician, just a singer---don't ask me for solutions to violence in my home state. I support peace and that's the only way I see out of this mess. For me personally peace comes from talking to people, from joking around with my friends, from making those around me smile. My philosophy towards life is simple--- I play to win, and if I don't win, I know a bigger victory awaits me elsewhere.
