Define it!!!

Below is just an extract of what I learned and wrote back to someone... Just to share this with myself again, made some changes and putting it down here...

I am not good at this, but I will try to let you understand what is the purpose of my this write up, which eventually is nothing, I know... But sometimes you feel very good doing things without purpose, without directions, to just go with the flow. While reading this, you may be finding me illogical sometimes, sometimes of your kind, sometimes practical, sometime emotional and sometimes very sensitive. Couple of things only one can let you understand in person, not by emails, not on calls, not by blogs etc... But its a good tech world now to throw out the things online and let everyone comment on it... good/bad, anything...

One fine evening, I got a beautiful explanation and definition of love, and I felt to give a big time hug to the person who put the words together, which were inside me, but scattered. There are many philosophies around the world about this four letter word, however, you need to feel comfortable and convinced about one particular thought on its definition which people has given it. No doubt in my statement that 'that person's' theory and definition of love touched me and I was convinced, still I am, nothing can change that throughout my life. Three types I had been told... One is Obsession, which sucks your blood, turns painful. Second, which grooms you in all the ways, which figure out all the positive energies inside you, you bloom in that. Third one, in which you leave the person you love, as it is, even if s/he wants to go, or have to leave you due to anything. I am still in between the sea of all these three thoughts that what kind of love I have oe feel. I am sure about one fact, I love, without any second thought, but when it comes to 'type' of it, I am blank, void and confused to bound my kind of love for someone in any 'type' or definition.

There are many things in your life you have to do; even you don't wish to do. Situations, reasons... Our life always sits on a bench of uncertainty; we never know what lies in the next second and what we will be doing for that uncertain action.

First kind: If you would be forcing someone to stick to yourself because of the reason 'You love someone', thats first kind of love, blood sucking, love which bother... that’s being like punishing yourself, and the other person too. What you would be doing with a machine... machine means a person with no feelings, or partial feeling for you...? The dirtiest sin is to kill your soul to do something or to accomplish something... Vikas, my best friend just reminded me that...

Second kind: If you really in love of this kind... with open heart and open arms, it’s a blessing altogether. Blessing for you and to other person that you met, things happened and you bloom... you bloom in a way that you can't be better than this... in past, in present, in future. It push you to figure out your capabilities... all your possibilities... all your strength become centralized... however, this phase only comes after certain time you have with someone... not just due to attraction, not just because of infatuation. It comes first with the 'magic' feeling, feeling of being together throughout the lifetime, through understanding each other in all the ways, respect for the decisions of each other. After sometime, then you will find that gradually you groomed, you groomed while you were spending the time... while talking, while exchanging the ideas, views.

Third kind: Most painful, though, still unfolds some happiness and satisfaction feeling. You need to some just let go... due to anything... Anything means due to situation, may be the other person don't feel the same way you feel for her/him, may be both of them come to know this that there is always next time and next life for them and not this... reason can be anything, but must be justified. May be, after some time, you will be having a smile on your face while thinking about that decision of being departed, being together in next life and next time... But issue with this third kind is, you hardly find yourself convinced about this. You should be having a very strong 'selfless' thinking behind, a very strong force of being a part o a larger world, a part of a universe which has no limitations, a sort of being saint... saint of your own kind...

I want to talk something about the word 'magic'... How can we skip this if we are talking about 'Love'... This love and magic have nothing uncommon according to me... both in some sense are the same... Don't forget to watch 'Sleepless in Seattle' for this word... 'Magic'... Being yourself... Being in 'Magic'... There is no harm to think about yourself and to think what you want and to get it done. At first, giving begins to you, yourself. If you are not happy, how you can make others happy and can be a reason for anyone's smile? If you are not satisfied, if you are not getting what you wish for, how you can be the reason behind someone's satisfaction and happiness? Isn't it like killing yourself for some other person? And how long you will be able to do that? At some point, you are cheating yourself, pretending, cheating everyone. This will not be long lasting... can't be. Magic is really a magical thing. Someone said it right, you don't know what you are missing until you taste it. If you can't be a living thing for yourself, full of happiness, joy, and full of life, you can't make the things for others...

Something to say... "You are not wrong when you think about yourself... it’s as important as to eat something... as necessary as to have oxygen and water...!”

Pray...!!!
Love & Faith...!!!
Everything will be alright... just believe in Him...!!!

God bless... :)

Wild wild world wide...

Don't want to put the name of the source from where this post is derived... People who know the source, will smile... who don't know... will smile a lot and will experience a new thing inside them... :)

I won't be the last
I won't be the first
Find a way to where the sky meets the earth
It's all right and all wrong
For me it begins at the end of the road
We come and go...

There is some kind of bigger thing that we can all appreciate and it sounds to me you don't mind calling it God. But when you forgive, you love. And when you love, God's light shines through you...

If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed...
I'm going to paraphrase Thoreau here... rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth...

The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences...

You are wrong if you think that the joy of life comes principally from the joy of human relationships. God's place is all around us, it is in everything and in anything we can experience. People just need to change the way they look at things...

Society, man! You know, society! Cause, you know what I don't understand? I don't understand why people, why every person is so bad to each other so fucking often. It doesn't make sense to me. Judgment. Control. All that, the whole spectrum. Well, it just...

The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head...

Some people feel like they don't deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past...

Take Leave
the conscious mind
Found myself
to be so inclined

Why sleep
in discontent?
Oh the price
of companionship

My shadow runs with me
underneath the Big Wide Sun
My shadow comes with me
as we leave it all
we leave it all Far Behind

Empty pockets will
Allow a greater
Sense of wealth
Why contain yourself
Like any other
Book on the shelf

My shadow lays with me
underneath the Big Wide Sun
My shadow stays with me
as we leave it all
we leave it all Far Behind

Subtle voices in the wind,
Hear the truth they're telling
A world begins where the road ends
Watch me leave it all behind

God Bless... :)

Simple... A day...

A pending post... about being "Simple..." what I learnt from “A day...”

Not any specific purpose to talk about the topic... neither I do have something special to tell which has happened, I know people would have been least interested to know anyways if there would have been something special too to tell. We have our own worries, concerns, celebrations to deal with, so no time to appreciate or to feel good about some other person's day. But still, why not to describe it... atleast you yourself dealt with a day, just another day, and if describing it to you, yourself makes you feel good, nothing is important than that, at present... You got time for yourself... lucky!!!

Saturday normally is defined in my dictionary somewhere, and that is also defined to change the definition of the same in my dictionary, for sure... I always wish and think that every Saturday will change something, some meaning of a weekend, something which I don't expect as and from a normal like weekend. Not to think about friends, not to think about home, not to think about outing, not to think about a movie, not to think about car service, bike service, not to think about anything which comes into the mind when weekend arrives... at all... And every weekend pass away with these things only... I always think to wake up at 7:00 AM on Saturday; this number 7 has been stuck in my mind, somewhere deep inside... But whenever the alarm rings at 7 on any Saturday, feeling of weekend kills that alarm ring. Today also this happened, I woke up at 7:00 AM, but again got into sleep to stand up in another 10 minutes, and I ended up with sleep at 11:00 AM... again I repeated the things this time, like last Saturday, like all other Saturdays...

The first thing I had so strong in my mind was not to take this day as a normal weekend, and to let the things happens without being feeling of a weekend... Somehow I achieved this too, in partial ways. I made up mind for some tasks which were pending since long back, and not to do 'regular' weekend jobs. But eventually, in this way also I was treating this day as a weekend only. Good thing happened was, I did something unusual, because it was not in schedule, I will discuss that sometime later...

So as per plan, I had to meet my old friends, the dogs. I was missing them like anything and I needed to spend some time with them, to feed them with their favourite food, biscuits. One thing which I always like the most in them is their eyes... it always gives a feeling to be hopeful... sounds crazy thought, but true for me. It’s just don't look at any lousy dog, or that will force you to yawn even after an energy drink..., so don't give a thought to look at a lousy dog at all ... :). Whenever I go to them, their eyes says lots of things... how crazy life is, be hopeful, don't be sad, everything is uncertain, life is beautiful, what if you are not getting everything you wish, life will still remain beautiful, you can't change that fact... and a lot more... their eyes express... funny, but true... try to look into their eyes, read... After spending some time with them, I went to do some weekend stuff...

The time I reached some place for some work, it was 3:30 pm. And from one of my well-wisher, got a call about JV meeting, with Ashok ji. Without a thought, I made-up my mind to attend that meeting, to go through what it is all about, what the talk we can have there. Meeting was in IIT in some canteen area, one of the favourite areas for the people like me. Where you can see such young enthusiastic people, with lots of dreams for future, with new inventions going on in their mind, some romantic short documentaries, some you can find fighting with their own identity among the heavy ones. Clicked some snaps there, like a group of students discussing something very important without talking, with the gestures from their hands, on bird which just came and sit in front of me on my table and started picking the tea I left in the glass, the ultimate canteen with most of the workers sweating and the drops were pouring into the tea, samosas etc... (Lovely feeling, like I was in a rewind phase of my own college days...). So I noticed and clicked all these things while waiting for Ashok ji.

As he described himself to me on the call, he was just like that and without any second guess if he was himself Ashok ji, I gone forward to introduce myself. Just after the moment he came down from the car. So we two were sitted now, he with the glass of fresh juice, and I, with another cup of tea. Tea is something I feel very attached to, it is something to teach you patience, to teach you go slow, learn, understand, grasp, to be silent, as per its nature. What we talked about, what was the purpose of the conversation, what I achieved after talking to him, what I learnt, what I understood... what is JV... all these things I am keeping for another blog, as that is something still to think and also about choosing proper words for it. After some time, few more friends joined us and the discussion continued, it lasted for more than one hour, with more cup of tea in between, with more concentration and likeminded frequency.

In the end, when the departure time was there, the sense of achievement and satisfaction was there. Although, when I use the word 'achievement', it doesn't mean anything and nothing to do with any criteria when I go and meet someone, but I use this word because I was happy, and I was smiling. Achievement can also be defined as a void substitution class for nothing, just as you get nothing if you throw a piece of stone into the water, but you feel good. Like for me, on that Saturday, being a smile on my face was the most important thing to get, to achieve, so that sense came. We concluded that we are lost somewhere into this big race, because of being competitive, being jealous, being shopkeeper who also look for some monitory profit and gain out of anything, being selfish. And in between all this, we forget that the most important things ... being 'Simple'. Being simple, to keep things simple, to make things simple, should be our main purpose. To make ourselves worth, to make ourselves being noticeable, to make ourselves on a mark and as a note, we do many things which are not at all required, which we should not concern at all. The only and special thing we need to do is... be simple... accept simple... live simple... Life is really simple, and is really all about the simplicity and to accept simple... but we really insist on being complicated... to make it complicated...

That was a Saturday I lived, I learnt, I understood a bit and wanted to share... One fruitful Saturday, for which this write-up was all about... and I am bound to copy one thing here from Hans Hofmann... "The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak...". Let’s accept this, try this, practices this, and start moving towards that...

God Bless... :)

Society

Its logical and conceptual... a logical word... just like some IT generated word to define something which you can't describe... which exists but don't exist at all. Which is there, but not present, present, but not there. It can be created anytime, anywhere, it can be destroyed anytime, anywhere, and both the creation and destruction can happen while someone wants to fight with himself/herself into his/her crazy existence. It is the thing which just can't be ignore.. you have to either live in that, or either have to create and destroy one for you. As said, it a logical paradigm, so it exists without any boundary of time. It was already there when the social term itself was not defined... a society of 'no mankind', it is there at present when we are fighting with homogenously multiplexed issues into this world which are far crucial than this existence of term 'society', and it will be there when everything will get destroyed for the new transformation, it will be present as 'a new world arrival'. In different forms, it hit and run, but always show and introduce, present, exists.

I had a so called another 'useless' day here, apart from one thing I did which eventually made it a worth, made it a worth 'logically'. I love this 'logical' word most now days, because everything compressed in it for me, like everything is 'automata', everything turns 'logical'. It exists, but it doesn’t exist. It doesn’t exist, but still it has a presence, in one way or another, and you have to live with it. So the worth thing for me which happened was I gone at some place to give some gift to some of my unknown friends, people who don't know me or neither they bother who I am, and then a thought hit my mind. Those also have a society for me... 'Unknown society'... And that was the time I had to stop writing for my other pending blogs (like I am a professional blogger...) and thought to give a shot for the term 'society'.

In everything, whatever I do, damn confusion starts with me, myself. Yes, I respect this feeling that you need to start analysing part with you, but also I too need the space to analyse something and someone else and to start writing and thinking things with, the space which I don't and can't have. So when it started, I got confused. To which society I belong? Whether the one which I created and opt, or the one which created me, as myself, as how I am. The thought process can be mine; it can be what I think, how I think, what I want to do, and how I want to do. But as a mankind, as a contract between the mankind, it should also get derived either for a society, or from a society. So while searching the identity, for some society, you gona be in some crisis, or for some, an advantage. Means you, yourself doesn't mean anything here. It’s one side, or the other. Either you have to accept one, or create one. It’s the concept. Its how all this has been gestate, contrived.

But one good thing is, you have an option... as you always have a chance. You can create one too, 'conceptually', on the basis of your choices. Society doesn't exist as a substance, as its logical term, and as soul can't be created or destroyed, so goes with society. So conceptually you are free to enter into any game of it. If one has to be a strict religious, people are waiting, if one has to be liberal, people are waiting, if one has to change the world, people are waiting, if one has to save the world, people are waiting, if one has to play with rules, people are waiting... every time, everywhere, anywhere... conceptually you are into some society... to comprehend you, or to mistake you.

I am happy with one of the great quote I got... "Society exists only as a mental concept; in the real world there are only individuals...". And yes, isn't it like that? Individuals, with their own thoughts, own findings, own learning, own experiences, own decisions, own sufferings... but where this word 'individual' lost when after an unspecified period, it get derived for or from a society? But yes, the people who made the difference, made some of theirs, it’s always not 'from' a society for them, it’s their own 'individuality' which they remained or remaining, and people follow those, to enter into their society.

We are what we have been taught, we became what we had been bound, bound to think and to do calculations. I have been thinking a lot to take an advantage of being a human being and also because I got liberty to think... so I am doing that... and one thing which is popping up again and again... what Buddha said... "Because mind is a creation of the society. It has been educated. The heart is unpolluted. It is pure existence, hence, it has a sensitivity. Look from the viewpoint of the heart, and the contradiction starts melting like ice...". Here is a start... for a new society... :) Come people... join...

No, there is no conclusion of all this, about me, about you, about this blog. If we conclude something, then it means we stop... we stop somewhere... and in contradiction to that, heart can't stop... can't stay... it always like just be ready and receptive... so be it.

A song I want to add...

It's a mistery to me

we have a greed

with which we have agreed

You think you have to want

more than you need

until you have it all you won't be free

society, you're a crazy breed

I hope you're not lonely without me

When you want more than you have

you think you need

and when you think more than you want

your thoughts begin to bleed

I think I need to find a bigger place

'cos when you have more than you think

you need more space

society, you're a crazy breed...

there's those thinking more or less less is more

but if less is more how you're keeping score?

Means for every point you make

your level drops

kinda like its starting from the top

you can't do that...

society, you're a crazy breed...

society, have mercy on me

I hope you're not angry if I disagree

I hope you're not lonely without me
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

Finally... one pic which I am missing the most, used to have in front of me for some hours in the daytime...

God bless!!! :)
