Narikel Jinjira - Asylum of the Soul

Back in 2008 when I was having a meditation lesson, my teacher asked me to think of a place which I would LOVE MOST to be in. The scenario I imagined was- standing in front of a seashore. To relive that imagination into reality, I decided to make a spiritual journey into the island called Narikel Jinjinra. It is also popularly known as “Saint Martin Island” but I purposefully choose not to call it by that name due to my anti-colonial disposition.

It was 2015 when I made that memorable tour to Narikel Jinjira. Prior to that year, my youngest uncle leased a resort in that island. That helped my convenience to stay on the island for some days. Basically, no one lives there for more than 2 or 3 days due to the expensive rents.

I first reached Teknaf in the morning in a night coach. Then I took a ship to the island. Before I planned to leave for the island, I checked the date of full Moon so that I can enjoy a full Moon night in the island. The journey from Dhaka to Narikel Jinjira is quite a hassle.

Finally, I set my foot on the island. The roaring of the waves all around the island gave an insta- energizing feeling of endowment with nature. The struggles of the journey are forgotten in a snap. The name of the island was derived by the abundance of the coconut tree. From the very first day, I started drinking a hell lot of green coconuts.

The following day of my arrival is the full Moon night. I was so excited for that night. I requested the manager of the resort to reserve for me an isolated place in the beach so I can enjoy and feel the night in solitude. When the night arrived, and the Moon was on the top of the head; the scenery was spectacular. Due to Moon’s gravity, the roaring of the sea got louder. It was a moment of my life. I tried to make a connection with the force of the sea and the strength of the Moon. It was the moment I energized my spirit in the presence of such mighty nature. I recalled that memory of my meditation lesson. I felt a sense of accomplishment by bringing my imagination into reality. The most interesting part of my tour on the island was that I slept every night in a tent alongside the seashore.

The rest of the week I spent the island, by exploring and engaging with the locals, trying to understand their culture. A unique trait I noticed in the people of Narikel Jinjira. They are unconditionally humble and their level of honesty is unthinkable. An aged man told me that, I could spend a night lying on the beach with a million buck and no one would dare take a penny from me. It’s like they are inherently good people.

My journey in Narikel Jinjira was an epic one. I made a lot of memories. I had spiritual tranquility staying on the island. Ever I find my spirit in dismay; I would rush back in that island without a second thought.
