Be in know very clear

The outer world of names and forms

The outer world of time and space

The outer world will change

Eventually one day or other  

'

The inner world of emotions and thoughts

The inner world of flow of energy

The inner world will stay the same

To be transferred to another form again

The seemingly so real the outer

The seemingly so unreal and bogus the inner (to some)

Is the deception of the crafty mind

It wants to stay alive with actions in outer

Go in again and again

Fail many times but keep doing that

The calmness and the connect to the Universe

Cannot be denied eventually

And when you are transformed

And you try explaining inner to other

You too will meet non- believers

Who will brush you aside and smother

Be in know very clear

That death will take away all that is dear

That which hurt or gave you joy

Will no longer be there

Be in know very clear

That a new shape of forms and names

Will appear again and again

The sameness of events all over again

Hamster On Wheel

Life events are to be looked at funnily most times. If not then there is no end to how serious things can go. The need of wants makes us become serious, rushed, old, cynical, selfish, cranky hamsters who cannot stop wheeling. 

A hamster is a solitary burrowing rodent with a short tail and large cheek pouches for carrying food, native to Europe and North Asia. Hamsters are highly motivated to run in wheels; it is not uncommon to record distances of 9 km (5.6 mi) being run in one night (wikipedia) The hamster keeps turning the same wheel for no reason but in just the obsession to turn it.

Let us look at our lives. We run like hamster on wheel. Day to night and night to day and then again. To make more money, to have more power, to be recognized, to boost that ego most of the time through any activities.  From youth to middle age to old age we let the mind run a game of riot. Yes due to this mind we may gain some material comforts and yes due to this mind we may have a good job, fat salary etc. The mind does not stop after the  material gain. It keeps rolling. For another gratification, for another endorsement about anything that it sights to make it a goal. More and more.

And we the "hamster" on that wheel roll with it. We are tired but we roll. One roll and second and one thousand and one, ten thousand and one roll.....then where does the funny bit come? The fact that we are hamsters is the funny bit, on a wheel that does not stop! And we think that we have it all under control. 

We are tired, we are in need for someone to stop the wheel but in that we get scared. Stop the wheel? And not be able to roll?  No please do not do that, never stop this wheel from rolling ever. Because we would not know what else to do if we did not roll. What would we do if we did not roll? 

We need to roll!

Yes SHE is the WOMAN of Today

Woman officer, Wing Commander Pooja Thakur, led the ceremonial Guard of Honour for US President Barack Obama at the Rashtrapati Bhavan today.  And in the republic day parade Women's power or Nari Shakti was the theme of the 66th Republic Day celebrations and for the first time all-women contingents from the three services marched down Rajpath. 

Yes she wears trousers and yes she marches. Yes she can kill and yes she can save lives. Yes she can lead and she can salute and she can command soldiers. Yes she can make policies and she can be ruthless. Yes she can shoot and yes she is ready to be killed in the process. Yes she is a scientist, yes she is an economist, yes she is a spiritualist, yes she is ready to lead the world.

Yes she is also a mother and a nurturer, yes she is an epitome of love and she is peace. Yes she has the softness of a dove and beauty of a mermaid. Yes she makes a house a home. Yes she makes barren roads be filled with flowers and laughter. Yes she forgives and she is wise yes she is most compliant like a river in a flow in love.

Yes to the woman of today.

She Forgot Why She Came

She came in this life

And forgot why she came

She got involved in useless

And went back with no gain

She came back again

And again forgot why she came

She got involved in useless

And went back with no gain

The sameness and repetition

Of being born again and again

The sameness of going back in misery

With hardly any gain

What she forgot was to always remember

That she was the Only Universe

Out to have an experience 
Of a Human Fellow

What she forgot was to stay and live in world 

Not like a glue to paper

But like a free floating bird
Mindful of all happenings

What she forgot was to remember

To deal with impermanence with joy
To endure bravely all aspects

And to stay earthed to eternal and Cosmos

Every life she attached herself to forms and colors

Every life she attached to issues and agendas

Every time she went back with no learning

And came back to suffer again and again


The measure of  progress of a life that one leads
Is one's misery meter when things don't go one's way
The attachments that play havoc and things one wants
The unpreparedness when it is not how one wants.


Be mindful and be in know
Of all that will pass
To deal with matters with zest
Oh knowing that nothing matters at all

Deepika Padukone- You are going the right way!

"The most common reaction is, 'How can you be depressed? You have everything going for you … a plush home, car, movies … What else do you want?'" But depression, Padukone concludes, is "not about what you have or don’t have."

Deepika Padukone- who does not know her, the hottest, sexiest woman of present Bollywood industry.  And yet when she has said that she has been fighting depression then we must sit down to think.  If material wealth, beauty, comforts, fans all over the world who worship- if nothing is enough then what is enough? What are we looking for? 

If it is happiness then all those who do not have any of above would say that that is happiness to me. And all those who have some of above would say that if I have more I would be happy if I had more of it. 

It is non ending my friends the wants. And yet the ones who have it, the ones who reach there realize that it falls short of that the inner self wants. The ones who have everything and still get depressed are indeed one of the luckiest people who have realized that it has to be beyond. Beyond all that they have and they have more than all others in all terms.

The what does this inner being want? What does the inner self want? 
It just wants to be connected to itself beyond the external material things. It wants to find the bliss that it knows exists- yes it knows exists  and is not available via external gratifications. The inner bliss. It wants that inner bliss of pure love and peace without a reason and it wants that to be permanent. 

Deepika Padukone is lucky to have got it all and yet un-blinded by it wants to know more of WHO is she?

I wish her all the best. 

What inspires you? What makes you bored?

What inspires you? What makes you bored? This decides where you are at in the evolution process of your life?

People say that since we are in world we have to  be a part of opinions, dialogues, news, processes, procedures, planning, organisation etc.  We have to be a part of buying, selling, profit, loss, power, entertainment etc. We have to be a part of party time, weddings, and funerals and birthdays etc, life is to be lived and we must be a complete part of it with all our energies. In that there are states of joy and sad and there are states of anger and compliance. Our days becomes months and months and months become years and years become more years, young to middle age to old and we stay with  same-ness of such energies. As we get older some of us become more religious, some more spiritual, some atheist and some more scientific, some very cynical, some very lost, some very quiet and some in great joy.


In all this I always have one aspect that I ponder on a lot. And that is that in my entire life I have paid attention to things that never stayed the same anyway.My energies and time have been used up in suchnesss, of course there has been a learning in all that - yet I have reached a point in my life that the greatest inspiration to my own self is when I dwell inside my heart cave to find myself. The joy to be with oneself in the quiet mind or a quieter mind is so very fulfilling and so very inspiring that when one gets addicted to it - the outer becomes very uninteresting. The outer word will stay as it is - with both good and bad and as long as good is more than bad this is how it will be. 


The what is it that is my time pass? There is a word called transcendence - a word that keeps me connected to the mystic other world. the world of bliss - the world of pure and absolute oneness the world of bliss and the world of joy- the world where music plays in heart and the ears hear without any sound....this is may be what people say is the way to become a master of one's own bliss, a chemist of one's own joy living in my own presence of my true self.  

(T)he energy of a single thought may determine the motion of a universe~Tesla

There may be some of us who know about the works of Tesla – one of the greatest Physicist as great as Einstein and yet not that known due to the shyness of his nature…Tesla discovered most of what world uses today --- Alternating Current,  neon signs,  tesla Coil,  X-rays -- Electromagnetic and ionizing radiation was heavily researched in the late 1800s, but Tesla researched the entire gamut,  Radio (- Guglielmo Marconi was initially credited, and most believe him to be the inventor of radio to this day),  Remote Control,. Electric Motor -- Tesla's invention of the electric motor has finally been popularized by a car brandishing his name,  Laser,  Wireless Communications and Limitless Free Energy.

A true physicist who believed in experimentation and gave this world all comforts of that we cannot fathom our life without.

And yet Tesla has at times given statement that have made one sit up to wonder, Statements like

(T)he energy of a single thought may determine the motion of a universe.

If this statement was really paid attention to then one must understand that when a scientist like Tesla gives such statements then one has to not worry about the authenticity of the statement, it is not religious, or cultural or promoting any philosophy- it is a statement from a scientist who having given so much to the world has the guts to talk about subjective science

The statement has two aspects that

a)  thoughts have energy

 b) and not all thoughts but only that those thoughts that are thought through with a single minded focus

MAY

determine the MOTION of THE UNIVERSE.

The Universe here not- being the external Universe of galaxies and stars but YOUR UNIVERSE of your events – of your space and time and of YOU as a subject. YOUR-VERSE! UNIVERSE

So Mind those thoughts and mind them well. The present is due to events of past and the future will depend on your present thoughts. Because THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS

Snail Physics and Vedanta

In a mood of contemplation I was walking my usual walk and thinking about a post of Physics that stated about a mirror Universe being a possibility along with this universe- in total 2 universes at the beginning of big bang….

…. the mind shifted from there to the multi-verses models (all unconfirmed) but one that talks about membranes and extra dimensions stating that we are part of many 2-d planes ( like a birthday card that opens to a 3-D image) or another theory of  quantum multi-verse where when we make a choice- then every possible timeline for the Universe is real…

….  I shook my head and went back to how much Physics had unraveled and is yet nowhere near to any explanation of what is that which is beyond every possible measure or every possible equation?  From Special theory of relativity concerning speed time and space to general theory to making space time and matter and energy to be the same things, then further to the duality of wave and particle , to the fact that matter that is you and me is a wave to  Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle and then quantum and entropy– my mind finally gave way to give up this external analysis. 

Give up!

Tired and unsatisfied it turned to Vedanta and to Gita that states that this phenomenal world is an illusion and what is beyond all such phenomena is Brahman, the Absolute Truth that the only way out is to examine the reason of illusion and that one can only realize the individual self through contemplation of being able to distinguish the real from unreal.

My quest must start from Who Am I? I must be the subject – not the external world.

On the way back home to coffee and to pen my thoughts, I clicked a snail making a trail with its slime in it's own relative world of its own speed and its own agenda, its own science of how much slime and how far.
