Feeling stupid? 26 February 2011 14:12 How to make choice of position? In this really messed up societal representation? All this happens to be just a perception of precipitation. Ranging between the 2 ears , the merry points of reception to the point of inception Its true that Choices make a difference But No choices make it too.! its just a matter of inference. The Choice option spreads the message throughout like a ripple No choice option leaves u often lonely depressed like a cripple. So! Tell me what to do? Cos It all seems like a im handling a weapon of choice. Is that something I should be celebrating with rejoice? I can be merry as I please, but im sure to get the damn invoice, Ill have to pay all my dues at full price, grin and take it all! without a voice. Should I Learn by watching? Or should I learn by doing and earning? I need to seek What is the Purpose of all this learning and unlearning? Is it all done to acquir...

faith 23 February 2011 14:16 Can having faith be for an experiment? Like! you "choose" to put "faith" into a being or a thing ! How real is faith ? and what is it?!!! How does one " choose " to put faith in something? Is it somewhat of a reserve inside ? You know! Like a well or something . Or maybe a bank ! That’s filled with products like contentment, fulfillment of goals, sense of achievement, charity, sainthood, room for a guru, bigger aspirations for upliftment of people, happy Samadhi , demigods and children?? A well/ bank ,that depletes with unsupervised throwaways ? You know like mindless charity, trying to be extra nice un such likes !! WHAT IS TRYING TO BE NICE?? Pssssst… its when you are trying hard to understand and please yourself/ someone else and are wasting so much time in making efforts. Instead why not, step back, ponder and strategise. Maybe then make a move??? ...

They say , just try to let go, I say its not easy to go slow mo! They say learn to be happy and carefree! I say, why don’t you help! search for the inner me They say holding hands, releases the inner glee I say, how will touching someone set me free? They say do this, do that I say, all this trying looks a bit like a frat! They make u meditate on a mat amidst all the breathing, i can still smell a rat! he chants! Breathe in breathe out. my common sense is revived, but my pockets shout. They try to open you up to strangers Then how are they training you to be lone rangers? Life is not a bunch of public opinions Why waste my time on all them onions :P They should try to teach the importance of a wall ! So you can sit on it, and take ur call The mind needs to be taught when to rest Coz after all life is a test.!!

Back into my bare apartment Thinking of all the things iv done Done to justify my presence To find my simple place under the sun People always have opinions! Figuring them out is a bag of onions The more you peel , the more you cry! They stink you up!!, while They sit there ,and multiply. Some teach the art of living :D And force you into submission, until you give in! You go in seeking a new leash over life, What you get is wisecracks almost like chives. Whats my obsession with all this onions? I don’t wish to give em barehugs in baniyuns :P Do they matter in the race at all That only if you accept , the race is on! Chill, relax, calm your nerves Do all the pranayams you learnt before Its all done to teach you to serve To enjoy your life better, not live in reserve!!

Is a need ...love? Or Is love a need? Does need justify love? Or does love justify need? Demand and supply. Which comes first? The supply ?? Or the demand for the supply?? Pick and choose Pick first then choose? Or choose first then pick?? Share and care Always share with care? Or care to share?? Guilt or ignore? Ignoring leads to guilt ?? Or is the guilt that leads to self- ignorance??!!!!

15 December 2010 14:59 Sometimes being at home ….. helps one evolve... How? Simple,….. The mind works in simple logic, ... At home one has to change their pattern of behaviour so as to suit the decorum set by the elders as house rules....their pattern ie. there are often one too many restrictions . Leading to difference of opinions. Generation gap as some call it. Since for the parents the children are always children.... they never seem to grow up !! or seem to have their LIVES or minds of their own.. .and.no one respects people with no mind ...DUH! So they obviously ignore the stand the child chooses to take. What would a brainless little child know about life anyways huh?? so the parents think, the kids constantly need to be told , and its such a hassle to "constantly " attend to someone else whine on and on….it sometimes skips the mind that conversations can be mere "sharing" and not always suggestion seeking, So...

An apple fell off a tree and a young man lay witness to its fall, due to the mysterious of “realisations”, gravity was discovered. One such realisation took place today in the shower. While i was scrubbing myself religiously with essential oil soaps handmade by khadi!! It occurred to me that a bathroom is more than a place to show up first thing in the morning to ease bowel movement and splash some water and brush brush brush... It has a dark evil twin . it resembles a dungeon. Think about it,!!!! Isnt it the privacy of the bathroom that we take our clothes/pretences off !! and take a deep look at ourselves??!!! Isnt it under that fading spotlight above the dirty sink and a tiny inconspicuous mirror do we actually look at our self! We hate our imperfections, we love our assets, we admire ourselves. We pose and preen. And the next second, scrutinise and dwell in loath . sometimes we over look flaws... Somewhere along the self assessment the action begins, the art of grooming...

I have lost count of how many fights have I triggered out of plain boredom. I have also lost count of all the times iv had to chew my nails in suppressed reactive agitation, this happens when im on the receiving end of a line of questions , all of whose answers are readily available. The questions arise from a consciously unoccupied brain. Not to be mistaken with idle mind. There is no such thing as an idle mind! The mind isn't programmed to remain on idle mode. Its always on standby, waiting for the next line of fancy . But when the mind isnt assigned any specific job to do, it runs on auto pilot. And hits the plateau called boredom! How does the human mind respond to boredom? Is there a fixed norm as to how a person should respond to boredom? What is boredom in the first place? Boredom is a state of mind when, all that which needs to be done is left pending, and all that work in hand doesn’t seem alluring enough to engage. The limbo sta...

regular shmegular its easier to access the roots of a person with the help of any photo record of the first eight months of life. good housekeeping style :P new born to 8 months of age , baby pictures make great " get back to yourself in a jiffy!" easy card.

My thoughts are a bit scattered but jotted them down anyhow. I perceive" I think therefore I am" to be- I become what I think I wish to become. I.e. I evolve into a person that i think i am. The important part of this whole discussion is the "thinking"... Human mind is a powerful tool. We just don’t recognize it’s potential. Those who do. turn into lunatics/fanatics/philosophers etc. people with knowledge of their capacity are often arrogant. Once they turn to arrogance, their journey to learning stops. They are satisfied with the limited knowledge they hoard. Many choose not to share with others/many choose to make a living out of sharing. Choice is always a weapon. Used either to defend oneself or attack! It’s not easy to find people who know their potential, know its consequences, and yet maintain a balance between the soul searching and living up- the results of soul searching. A true learned person (according to me) is the one who has learnt lessons of l...

"But I have convinced myself that there is absolutely nothing in the world, no sky, no earth, no minds, no bodies. Does it now follow that I too do not exist? No: if I convinced myself of something [or thought anything at all] then I certainly existed. But there is a deceiver of supreme power and cunning who is deliberately and constantly deceiving me. In that case I too undoubtedly exist, if he is deceiving me; and let him deceive me as much as he can, he will never bring it about that I am nothing so long as I think that I am something. So, after considering everything very thoroughly, I must finally conclude that the proposition, I am, I exist, is necessarily true whenever it is put forward by me or conceived in my mind." (AT VII 25; CSM II 16–17) my take on the above!!! the deception im talkin about is what id like to call as mindgames played on us. im questioning the aspects of my existence. am i here for a purpose? if so is it useful?what defines "being useful...

My journey of “eradicating unruly eye brows forever” began years ago ,( my college first year to be exact) when a bunch of my seniors dragged me to a local beauty parlor to get me introduced to eye brow grooming. I was a “ brow-virgin ”!! Till then I was blissfully ignorant of how much difference a bunch of neatly arranged, painted and gelled –facial hairs- would make in ,my overall appearance .Little did I know that being on a hotseat with a so called eyebrow grooming professional , who was pulling off “stray hairs” (( eyebrow maintanence jargon!)) would eventually turn into a personal obsession and take over my life! The obsession that began almost a decade ago , slowly turned into a passion and eventually into a communal service. I’m a eye brow stylist ! Yea, that’s right. I style brows for strange people i meet, whose fur above peepers irk me so much that i cant help! but reach out for my tweezers. it jus ends up being a free service! . In other words , I reveal...
