Digital Reality

We live in a digital world where present is the tiny gap between the two bits and it plays no role in the progression of this grand illusion called the universe. Rather, realisation of present shatters the illusion instantaneously.

Meditation Explained

Basically meditation is to withdraw from the outside world and have a peek within self. A peek within means shutting down of the thought process and action center which get their inputs from the worldly physical cheat senses. These sensory inputs are processed by our brain to construct a personal or collective faith in the illusion around us, which then prompts us to physically execute the scripted commands of the supreme master.  Its like non-co-operation movement which ultimately leads to freedom. Aazadi of  living the moment!

In advance stages, the meditation is to insulate the sensory inputs from the brain and at the same time shut down the proxy server which auto kick starts on the stored information. Its kinda reboot with all sensory ports disconnected and to stay connected with the pure consciousness. If successfully achieved, it will give you a feeling of timelessness or stillness.

To start with, it is not possible to isolate mind from senses. So we start by concentrating on breath alone while we are fully connected to the outside world through other senses. The idea is to spurn the overtures to enticement by the senses using brain power and remain in a passive state. The idea is to not to react to the outside temptations and noises. Push everything to the background. Initially you would be disturbed by the activity in your backyard. But slowly and gradually the background noises will disturb you less and less as you choose to be indifferent to them and get used to them as a passive observer. The result would be more peace inside irrespective of the noises outside.

So we finally arrive at : Meditation is awareness without indulgence.

In wider ambit, following physical activities can also be classified as meditation:

1. a student studying during festival season

2. a player practicing while his friends partying

3. a man quietly and calmly listening to his wife's rants

4.  an audience calmly enduring a boring lecture

In broader sense, Meditation is willful ignorance of favourable or unfavourable sensual triggers which try to breach peaceful staus quo or thwart your tryst with consciousness. In any case it imparts you peace of mind and helps you to accomplish your goal.

Difference between Sleep and Meditation

Sleep is purely a routine involuntary physical body maintenance process where mind rests in a subconscious state, while Meditation is controlled throttling of the streaming sense bytes in order to interact with the consciousness. Mind is in highly conscious state.

Consciousness – Have it Neat

PERFECTION IS GOD. CONSCIOUSNESS PROMPTS LIFE TO ACHIEVE PERFECTION IN A RESTRICTED PLURAL SET UP.

Life is a journey from relativity to singularity or from imperfection to perfection. Life is change and the change is possible in relativity domain alone. The relativity domain is encompassed by Singularity or perfect consciousness.

The progression of life has been evolutionary i.e. from lower level of consciousness to the higher levels. Consciousness is singular descending from the singularity. All forms of life derive consciousness from this single source on time sharing basis. Each one of us possesses a different level of consciousness depending upon our genetic evolution, species, inheritance, environment, location, ability, company, upbringing & personal efforts.

There are different levels of manifestations of consciousness viz.

BASIC LEVELS – Sensory & Survival

Awareness - sensory consciousness

Lowers-Middle Level –Basic instincts and Survival

Feeling & experience

Basic perception

Emotions

Pleasure and pain

Instinct,  

Middle Levels – Competition

Knowledge,

Learning

Intelligence,

Will,

Attitude and behavior,

Happiness and sadness

Ego

ADVANCED LEVELS- Striving for Excellence

Intelligence,
Learning

Persistence  

Foresight & intuition

Bliss,

Think of a Wi-Fi; mobile phones, laptops, computer or TV sets, they all are receiving their signal from the air and producing the output according to the data they lock on to as per their design and wish of their operator. Without that signal of consciousness they are as good as dead.  

Similarly, all the living organisms are communicating with consciousness from a common source. The basic objective information received and perceived thru senses is same in all organisms. e.g. whosoever with eyes have X in their visible range will see X and whosoever with ears have him within hearing range will hear him and whosoever with nose within smelling range of him will be able to sniff his presence in the vicinity. Those with only touch sensors will be able to feel him upon touch and so on. The basic information transferred will be identical to all in the form of basic awareness. However, retaining that information is again a relative ability.

Awareness or observation would then induce a feeling of pain or pleasure or indifference. The perception of the observation then prompts a reaction within the observer, which primarily would be in accordance to the basic instincts ingrained and propelled by the genes of the species. The living being is very predictable and its interaction with the consciousness is very limited to low levels till this hardware stage. e.g. a cow sees grass and feels hungry and eats it and cuds on merrily. Not much of consciousness is at play.

Then a Lion sees a cow herd. He too feels hungry and wants to eat. Lion watches the herd carefully hiding behind the grass and bushes. Selects a weak target and then slowly and stealthily moves close to the target and then runs after it. The target runs too to save self and there is a skillful chase after which the target escapes leaving the lion hungry and dejected. A higher level of consciousness manifested here though still a product of the basic instinct.

The fundamental rule of life is to survive and reproduce. Each instance of life is designed to be selfish in order to preserve the instance till its natural expiry; also, during the currency of the instance it is expected to produce its own replicas (reproduction) to promote its species and class at augmented level of consciousness. The instance receives the information to survive by the way of genes from its parents then remains under their protection till its ready to acquire its own, which in turn are passed on to its own offspring. That is called Evolution of life.

Each instance of life comes equipped with upto date hardware and further adds on new software using the consciousness to deal with the new events. We call it learning. Life interacts with consciousness only while learning. Normal routine life can be lived in sub-conscious state. Thus learning is imperative for manifestation of consciousness, hence the Evolution. 

Evolution means higher level of competition to achieve greater functionality and give rise to an instance which is more complex and better equipped to understand the nature and survive. Our universe is limited by time and space and life comes packed in a minuscule size body with very limited reach.

It’s the consciousness which prompts life to seek and breach limits of the physical world through learning as if consciousness is trying to discover itself through life or trying to liberate a piece of it captured in the relative zone. It’s a bid to strive for perfection in an imperfect world.

Players and sport persons practices for hour, honing skills to win and excel. Scientists & scholars work on their projects day and night to discover unknown, artists passionately toil to deliver master pieces. And sadhus & monks meditate to master their senses. All of them constantly try to manifest consciousness in its highest form in our limited world. The uphill journey to top requires one to come out of the personal comfort zone and enslave the senses. One has to endure extreme physical pain with undeterred persistence and will in order to achieve the top spot.

In very high states of consciousness, time dilates and space shrinks, making it possible for the piddle fart living being to grow and become at par with the vast universe. e.g. at Roger Federer’s consciousness level at tennis court, the court shrinks and the zipping ball appears to be moving at snail pace.  

However, the real limitations are not posed by space and time but by our own senses and ego. The senses act like gravity and Ego acts like mass in our flight to singularity. At low levels of consciousness, senses exert maximum force like gravity on a stationary rocket. Life is in full control of the senses. Life is at rest or in sub-conscious state in such a condition. But as the life starts negating senses with sheer will, the rocket takes off heading towards singularity. But as the life gathers momentum into the consciousness, EGO, the mass, starts bloating. By the time one reaches the relative top, it becomes hard for one to sustain any further and only way then is down. For one to attain perfection and manifest top level consciousness, it is imperative that one must keep offloading ego on the way to top and finally merge with singularity jettisoning I in whole and uniting with pure consciousness in a state of bliss... From being just a particle, to be in a whole wave harmony! Hey, you observer, buzz off.

"Consciousness is a term that refers to the relationship between the mind and the world with which it interacts. It has been defined as: subjectivity, awareness, the ability to experience or to feel, wakefulness, having a sense of selfhood, and the executive control system of the mind. Consciousness manifests itself in several ways: intelligence, knowledge, intuition, bliss, perception, emotions, will, attitude and behaviour, awareness of pleasure and pain. Life and consciousness are coextensive. Wherever there is life, there is consciousness and vice versa. But there are degrees of explicitness or manifestation of consciousness in different organisms. In the lowest class of organisms, it is very much latent, while in human beings, it is very much manifest." ~  Jain World

Act of Man

Scientists on earth plan to populate moon with machines and robots. It is planned that the moon would be populated on similar lines as the life evolved on the planet earth.

Over a period of 100 years, reproducing robots were evolved in to a very advance robotic civilization on Moon. Man controlled the robots from earth but the robots felt as if they were doing and controlling things themselves. However,  robots were hinted and programmed to believe in a creator, a God. This was most important otherwise the toys would have gotten confused on their way to evolution by the imperfect simulation. God acted like a suspense account to them while we people debugged and conveyed logic through scientist robots.

However, some were left atheists. 

There was greed, emotions, sex & violence, family, religion, politics and all other ingredients of a blockbuster soap.

One day, a  meditating stubborn believer robot was brought to earth and allowed to meet his creator. He was made to tour the godly planet earth. Seeing the plight of his God on planet earth, the robot, Ram, said, "Oh my God! Poor God."

Jai Ho!

When I started learning painting at school, I would draw only the subject. But then my art teacher would tell that my work was incomplete as there was no background in that. I gradually started understanding the importance of  background in a painting. ...and with that came the respect for fellow Indians and my Indianness.

Unmanned Car

The other day during a discussion with my most learned friend, Deven Kalra of Big 'G' Google, he told me the philosophy behind developing driverless car at Google is, the man must do only those jobs where there is need to apply brain or where it is imperative, rest all routine jobs must be handed over to robots.

Hmmm... a great philosophy and logical too. Having come thus far and having loads of information at hand, man's job should be to synthesis information and work on technological solutions to take total control of our lives.  Routine cut copy paste jobs are waste of time and human resource when alternatives are available.

Going back to history, man's obsession with tools has been integral to his evolution. From hunting to going all the way spatial.  Man has toyed with machines. The basic instincts attached to this weird love are:

- Seeking comfort and ease of work

- Greed for more in the shortest possible time

- Identity crisis

Mechanization of human society has not been a smooth sailing. At various levels it met with stiff resistance from the incumbent methods, practices, lobbies & religion. There was always a fear that the increasing use of machines would render the human workforce unemployed. But on the contrary there were other types of jobs created. And each time people embraced and settled to the disruptive technology.

So far so good... But I have my own reservations now.

No doubt our hold on technology is stronger than ever before and it is further growing manifolds at fast pace. But at the same time today the majority of population is making living out of absolutely no skill petty cut&paste data feeding jobs or simple machine operating and monitoring jobs. And that's a great cause of concern. Technology in its stride is going to gobble up these jobs someday very soon. That would leave a vast majority of this unskilled, bum-ass (not used to mental or physical hardship) population redundant.

Whenever I think of human society, I think of ants and bees and bacteria. And that takes me into bit of biology. Some of the biological facts are:

- With in a generation, members of a species are born with various levels of capabilities.

-  Evolution of a species is direct function of the number of mutations and population

Excessive consumption by the worker ants/bees will certainly change the ph & temperature of the hive. The growing large population of  bum-ass drones will have to parish in order to preserve the resources, temperature and ph of the hive. But these drones actually play a crucial role in evolution of the hive. Thus any such eradication of the drones may hamper the evolution process of human beings as whole.

Progression of human society has uncanny similarity to that of  bacteria in a culture. I guess, our growth is almost at the acme of the log phase now, which would have to be followed by the stationary and death phases respectively.

...and that would leave the unmanned car without a passenger.

   

A short but never ending story...

There is this rich owner of a skyrise. He is perturbed by the development of a small property in the vicinity. He is unhappy because:

• the construction process is causing inconvenience and turning the surroundings dirty
• the upcoming property may grow bigger and become a potential threat to his superiority in the region.

Besides, there could be several other reasons for him to feel offended and insecure.

Also, there is a beggar in the area near the developing site. He is happy as he foresees more alms falling in his kitty. 

But the big schizophrenic fella has the other idea. He pays the beggar some money to throw stones at the small guy's property and create nuisance.   The beggar willingly accepts the money and marshals the commands of his powerful boss.  The small guy now considers the beggar as his biggest enemy and root of all his problems. The beggar is by now a full time servant to his rich employer.

...and the life goes on...

p.s. I have since short listed 3 candidates for casting in my film. The candidates are USA, India & Pakistan. The problem is, Pakistan wants the rich man's role. 

Simply, The Godly Bread

There is a Subway Restaurant at my Office building. Every morning when I pass by, the aroma of freshly baked bread greets my nostrils and flirts with my taste buds. The experience is exuberating.

As a curious man, I am tempted to go deep and see how this delicious and tongue tingling food is made. Here it is... You take some rich flour and kneed it into a loose dough by mixing water, salt, sugar and yeast. Let the yeast make merry and ferment the dough and then place it in a preheated oven. Wait for some time... Lo! the mouth watering aroma will start emanating and finally the golden brown crusted tasty bread.

The magic ingredient of the recipe is YEAST. Yeast is nothing but fungus/ bacteria. As the yeast consumes the nutrients in dough it produces CO2 which forms pockets of air within and fluffs the dough. In the fermentation process nutrients are broken down into smaller (but over-stretched) and more flavoured and tastier substances.

To our joy, the colonies and civilisations of yeast are wiped out at their acme every morning as they bake in earthen ovens across the earth. Yet, the yeast learns no lesson. It consumes, grows and multiplies in the dough pans as if it were in an infinite resource. Its end is sealed in its DNA. It is destined to be annihilated one way or the other.  

I pity poor yeast. But soon this pity turns into self pity. Our role on earth is nothing more than that of yeast. To the joy of hungry God, the global dough has now well risen and ready to go in hot oven.  Aroma of freshly baked bread will hit God's nostrils soon and will be received by his olfactory receptors to titillate his taste buds.

OMG!, Bon Appetite! We can feel the heat.

I want to break free

Each night I think of meditating to come out of the egg. I am told there is a limitless and a timeless paradise waiting to welcome me outside. But then a worrisome thought flashes, what would happen to Mr. S K Jain's cosy little white & yellow world? How on earth could I just walk out of a life which promises me the wealth of Bill Gates and fame of a Michael Jackson or an Amitabh Bachchan; and all that fun that I have with my family and friends. How could I just disown the name and fame associated with me. Despite all of limitations and woes here I can't think of a life beyond this shell. I can't see the beginning or an end of this shell. For me, this is my infinite and only world. Somebody tells me once I come out I will have wings and will be able to fly and I would be able to lay eggs and create universe for creatures like me myself. What rubbish! I don't really believe it. I am comfortable here

Slowly and gradually, I slip out of the dilemma and return back to the daily grind of past and future tense. I love the relativity of  my real world where S K Jain is the centre of attraction and a happening place. Even if true, singularity sounds like a boring proposition.

But given an option, a chick would never go back in an egg or for that matter for me mother's womb is a capital NO!

Memory, Logic & Time

Time is a derivative of change.

The other day while chatting with my learned friend, Deepak Rathore of Thilio Technologies, Deepak said that to him the genesis of time was in memory.

Hmmm..., a very apt observation. A frame in absence of any previous event becomes a timeless still frame. And as soon as you introduce a frame from the archives to it the things start moving and clock starts ticking. The science of animation...

Elaborating on the concept, there are other aspects to time viz. spatial change and logic. e.g. if we are looking at sun in the sky for few seconds it will not impart any sense of time but if a moving cloud is added to the scene at the same time, the time will start flying.

Now Lets take the example of a frame consisting of a classroom followed by another frame showing a vast sea. Our mind will not be able to relate the two events and we will perceive the two frames as stills. Hence, to experience time, the two events should be logically relevant and related. However, the logic is built upon our past experiences hence it is also a product of memory. Therefore, we can say memory holds the key to time.

Ref. my blog, The Quantum Twist: http://sudkjain.blogspot.in/2015/09/complexity-daughter-nature-is-not-as.html, I observed that physically time is electromagnetic in nature. Well, it seems I am in perfect sync with my friend since physically memory is also electromagnetic in nature. 

Corollary: Time is a trait of finite relativity. For singularity its just an endless dash(instance).

Beauty of Imperfect World

While the definite 0 & 1 probabilities are reserved with Singularity, our universe supports all the non-definite probabilities between 0 & 1. A polite 'may be' squeezed between rude Yes & No. And that makes our world an interesting place to live, full of hope... 

Jain Ban

Anekantvad is the corner  stone of Jainism.

 

Anekantvad is a corollary of the idea that this universe is just an illusion where the truth (the soul) has been taken for a ride by the lie in the form of body and desires.

 

The objective is to alienate the truth from the lie. The first step to achieve this objective is to identify the two entities clearly.  Having identified that everything physical or pertaining to our sensory perception is a lie or an illusion in this universe, how on earth could anyone be right in asserting self or any idea pertaining to the illusion to be true?

 

Just like the theory of relativity in physics, our convictions are purely relative and frame & view oriented. Just like the electric and electronic equipments around us behave differently and return different output upon subjection to a common source of power, we all are designed to perceive and react differently to an event or source. Having acknowledged this, fans rotate, music systems sing, TVs display pics, bulbs and tubes light up our life. All of them perform in their own way without ever questioning other's way of life. This is Anekantvad...

 

However, man has been attributed with some extra qualities. The most illustrious of them all being the EGO. Each man is stuffed with  loads of ego which prevents him from doing his own job but prompts him to find faults and assert self over others. Knowing the truth but blinded by the ego, man never sees the truth in his lifetime. He spends his whole life chasing mirage at mach-2.

 

So, Jains, mind your own business. Don't make a chair out of  knife. You will end up with a bloody ass. 

Quantum Twist

Complexity is the daughter of  fear. The nature has nothing to fear about. Therefore it is not as complex as man makes out of it. The mathematics is the language of God but most of us do not understand it. However, it is not important to know the language as long as we could use an interphase of logic. Normal human brain is well equipped to process data using simple logic.

The nature follows some simple and basic principles. These principles have been conveyed to the mankind by some great but simple people from time to time. From classical to quantum has been a giant leap. Philosophically, the quantum physicists suggest that our world is made up of pixels and we are multi dimensional images on a giant screen. Just like television screen, the mega screen(the universe) is swept by the singularity field (cathode ray). On the mega screen there are particles having time and space orientation.

Further..., herebelow a recap of what I understand :

The singularity Field

The singularity is an infinite, eternal, purely static field sans time or space. Hence it constantly opposes  any change brought about in its realm by exerting Gravitational and Magnetic forces.

The SpaceTime Field & Particles

• Spacetime field is a bubble within singularity field. 
• Each basic particle within universe(spacetime field) is a blend of space and time dimensions/orientation. (see fig)
• For the different types of particles this blend has a different ratio of time and space orientation. i.e.. some have greater orientation toward time and some have greater space orientation. (Half or fraction spin particles as I would like to call them). This share is governed by the frequency/speed of the particle. Greater the frequency(speed) of the particle, greater the share of time. Slower or lesser the speed/frequency, greater the share of space dimension.
• Electrons have greater time orientation (fraction or half spin particles)
• Proton & Neutrons have more of space orientation. (fraction or half spin particles)
• Photons are pure (100%) time particles - electromagnetic (Integer spin)
• Higgs bosons are pure (100%) space  particles - mass (Integer spin)
• The particles within spacetime field are constantly changing or capable of changing their position and speed by introduction of energy. 
• While changing position, speed or state, the particles meet with resistance in the form of gravity and electro-magnetic forces exerted by the singularity field in space-time vector ratio.

• When singularity interacts with particle's time orientation it gives rise to electo-magnetic resistance.
• While singularity's interaction with particle's space orientation results in gravitation and mass.

Effect of change in speed on particle's orientation:

Since speed = distance/ time

• Increasing speed by adding energy to a particle results in contraction (increase) of its space orientation and dilation (decrease) of its time orientation.
• Decreasing speed by extracting energy from a particle results in dilation(decrease) of its space orientation and contraction (increase) of time orientation.

The Universe is a Limited Co.

The particles in this universe are bound by the flwg two limits:

• Speed of  Light (Maximum Energy state)
• Absolute  Zero Speed (Least Energy state) 

Particle at Absolute Zero Speed

On way to Absolute Zero particles lose energy & speed. Hence they have dilating space dimension and contracting time orientation therefore:

• Time orientation of all particles including proton and neutrons with in an atom will increase. ie even protons or neutrons will behave like electrons near the limit.
• The singularity will exert more magnetic force on them and hence strong electro-magnetic forces will be experienced
• Very low or no Gravity.
• Minimum heat Energy

Result:

• Creation of  Boson condensate  (E = MC^2)
• Experience of strong electro magnetic force.

Explains: Boson condensate ( 100% time spin matter)/ super conductivity (even protons behave like electrons)/ super fluidity (low or no Gravity & same orientation).

Particle at Speed of Light

On way to speed of light, particles gain energy and speed. Hence they experience contracting space dimension and dilating time orientation therefore::

• Space orientation of all particles including electrons with in an atom will increase. ie even electrons will behave like protons or neutrons.
• Thus the singularity will exert very strong gravitational force on the particles and hence a very strong gravity will be experienced
• No or largely reduced Magnetic field

Result:

• Creation of Higgs Boson (M = E/C^2)
• Experience of infinite gravitational force.

Beyond the limits of the spacetime field, there is sudden death of time or space as both the quantities can not exist independently without the other. And there remains the infinite, eternal & boring singularity alone.

Sallekhana - The Way to Go!

Sallekhana(santhara) is a practice in Jainism, where after discharging ones duties in life, one stops being a consumer and goes into deep meditation until death.  You may call it total voluntary retirement from consumerism in favour of spiritualism. It is akin to euthanasia in terms of the final result but not in methodology or philosophy.

The very core idea behind Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism is that the soul is part of God which never dies but keeps changing body by virtue of repeated births (role palying) and this material world is just an illusion. Influenced by this core idea, the philosophy behind santhara is to get ready for the life after successfully completing the present term. It is like preparing  soul for the next level. The idea is not to kill self but self realization, in which the soul finally overcomes bodily senses and worldly illusion. Its a celebration to usher a new beginning in quest for the truth.

The first emperor of India, Chandragupta Maurya observed Sallekhana before his death. I think it should be made mandatory after the age of 80 (preferably 70... preferably 60...)

Dev Shastra Guru - Pt. Jugal Kishoreji - Translation

My thousand salutes to the Gurus who have attained complete knowledge (Kewal gyaan).

Now coming back to self, under the spell of five worldly senses I am enjoying the poison of this unreal and delusive world and I am unable to cast off from the witchcraft of the non-living. Not able to see my own greatness, I am totally obsessed by this grand illusion. Oh God! Lift curtain from this illusion.

I know, my body and me are two immiscible entities like oil and water. Both have separate sets of attributes.  But  infatuated, I have surrendered the power of judgement to the guile and acquired the attributes of non-living. Fallen to the sham, my term has extended  in this delusory world by the way of repeated births and deaths. Oh Lord! I am sorry for my misjudgement. Give me some sensibility.

Unfavourable and sad moments drive me away from this delusion at times, but then come the moments of joy and fun enticing me back into the unreal world. Oh Lord! Pull me out of this fragile bubble.

Equality or singularity is my true nature. There is no impurity in me hence no bias. But the truth has shattered into several lies.   Oh Lord! Give me my stability and oneness back.

I have fulfilled numerous temptations and desires, yet I remain unsatisfied. My greed is like a bottomless well. Oh Lord! Today I have come to taste the joy of satisfaction.

I always thought that worldly lamp was the true source of light, which is blown away by the slightest gust of wind. Oh Lord! I have come to light my inner lamp perpetually.

I was always under the illusion that my actions were controlled by others and it was others who made me love or hate them. Oh Lord! Today I have come to disengage my self from others.

I can't keep my possessions with me for long. And the fear of losing them keeps me stressed constantly. Oh Lord! by nature I am a cool and free person. Break me free from my attachments.

Oh Lord! I will bust the sensory illusion and rise above the worldly feelings to get in the state of perpetual happiness by meditation. I will see the ultimate truth and feel the absolute strength. Yes, my lord! I will merge in you one day. 

Why can't there be a Single Theory of Everything...

I think, Einstein's General Theory of Relativity was a comprehensive theory as far as matter is concerned. But he could not explain the behaviour of imps like sub atomic particles, electrons or photons with this theory. Hence the rise of quantum physics.

However, Einstein and other scientists are fundamentally wrong when they try explain the two with a single theory. Quantum physicists have been quite close in their general explanation regarding the electrons. But with all sorts of contradictions and uncertainty, their findings suggest, it's not science. Hence, quantum physics should be called quantum religion. The imps are not particles and they are independent of time and space dimensions. Matter(proton/neutron/quark) is physical but photons and certain sub-atomic particles are meta-physical in body and soul analogy.

Every matter, living or non-living has two entities, body and soul or consciousness as one might like to call. As we see in the case of living, the physics does not apply to soul(psyche). Similarly, behaviour of sub atomic particles can not be explained by the laws of physics.

Therefore, its a wild goose chase to find a common string of theory to tie  the two entities together. The best we can do is to extend the realm of quantum physics to quantum religion having two streams viz psychology and philosophy. Pure physics will never be able to explain these little magicians in this grand illusion.

There  is an urgent need for another religion. Did I say more blood shedding??

One Too Many

Last night, as usual, there was a fight between electrical appliances viz. TV, fans light bulbs etc at my house. Each denouncing others and singing its own glory. Just then the power went out and there was a serene silence in the house.

...but that silence and the darkness left me wondering, why the objects drawing life and drive out from a single source behave so differently? How would one feel if each were to merge back in the source? How the colours feel on uniting and radiating as a white beam of light? 

Before I could ponder further, the power came and my thoughts dissolved in the cacophony of the objects reborn.

Tangled In Strings

Hum log khilaune hai ek aise khiladi ke
Jisko abhi sadiyon tak ye khel rachana hai,
sansaar ki har shay ka itna fasana hai
ek dhundh se aana, hai ek dhundh me jaana hai
- Sahir Ludhiyanavi

Meaning:
We are toys of a player, 
who has to play this game for ages. 
The story of this world is that 
we come from nowhere and go to nowhere.

Then why all this ado. Come on inside. Lets take that ride together without greed, fear, malice or anger.

Why remain tangled in strings. Let's cut them and break-free to write our own story. Live happily and make this world a better place to live.

Religion Vs Consumerism

The gist of religion or spirituality is that the soul was the only truth, buried deep under the lie of illusory matter.   Having said that, defining and differentiating  good illusion and bad illusion and subsequently attaching material rewards and punishments to them was nothing but a marketing strategy adopted by the religious preachers and practitioners. Poor needy and greedy always fall to such gimmicks. Hence the rise of religion and consumerism thereafter.

Consumerism is nothing but an appendage of religion, like the the two political parties. Both spit at each other and flourish, while the subjects languish. 

Present Unknown

“I am who I am,” God said to Moses. Try and catch the present if you can.

Present moment or stillness is the truth, but it is totally elusive to the fugitive subjects like me.

Yes, I Know, I am who I am but I don't know who I am. Hence a mortal.
