Life in Flux

2011-03-04T19:31:00.000-08:00

Life is in flux.Hence an ideal situation or an ideal attitude or an ideal place can become a question mark. As one is thinking or talking about these,life moves on .You think you are with a quiet person before you are propelled into that crowded share taxi taking you to an equally crowded rock concert from the narrow wooded lane in the outskirts of the city.

Through this relationship maya is learning so many new facets about herself.

Is this what they mean when they say u live only in relation to another.

The Hadza effect

2010-02-24T08:58:00.000-08:00

Its the third day in a row, the hadza effect shows no sign of wearing.We'll come to the Hadza a little later.
Different species of butterflies flutter about in the site.Such wonderful colors.There's a pair with yellow and black wings.One in peacock blue with black trimming.Wonder what they come here for.Its just plain red earth, stones, cement and bricks.

The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that Life is meaningless.We add value, meaning as we go along.We as a species with superior brain development have the ability to question why but alas not have an answer.In fact the question and questioner look ridiculous in the face of 14 billion years of the expanding universe.

Hmm..Coming back to the Hadza effect.The Hadza are one of the very few surviving 21st century Hunter gatherers in the infertile desert lands of Tanzania not far from the Serengeti National park.

Off late, my reading habit has taken quite a big hit.Unable to read a 3 page article from start to finish but this one gripped my attention, nope soul!

They gather fruits,berries, nuts, hunt baboons for food.
Importantly they don't store food.Storage is an action borne out of thinking about the future, fearing lack, security and maybe a fear of Life itself.

I really envy the Hadza.Yes, they don't have proper medical help, they are bitten by mosquitoes, theirs is an "insanely committed camping trip".But they LIVE. They don't answer to anyone.Their only God is the Sun.Their ecological footprint- ZERO.What a blessing to live and leave Her(Mother Earth)like this.No possessions, no tax, no nothing. Just bow and arrows to fetch you the next meal, few reeds to get you a shelter, a small community to which you belong to,acres of infertile land and no worries.

Just being around you was beautiful

Well....Lets see how things pan out.

Who is God?

and Who are you?

2009-10-12T11:04:00.000-07:00

You have ample time for your office work.

But not for us.

You love your laptop and cell fone more than us.

You are earning much more than what you used to.

But time to spend those notes is what u lack.

Its ok. Suit yourself.

Love you jus the same.

Stranger

2009-10-12T10:29:00.000-07:00

Met up with old friends- Felt like a stranger.There seemed to be nothing common between us except our old memories.

All one could do was nod for whatever the other said and make light conversation. Deeply felt the lack of communication.

There are a few friends, recently found, who seem very close to heart and the deep connection one feels towards them is cherished.

Why this distinction between friends? Why not?? This doesnt mean I don't love that person/persons.

We afterall live in the material world and it makes perfect sense to distinguish between hot and cold.

Judging hot and cold in a weigh balance is what is unnecessary.

2009-08-23T12:02:00.000-07:00

Feeling more comfortale with close friends than relatives i love(d?).

life sure is changing.

watching it.

Solitude

2009-08-23T11:57:00.000-07:00

Dear maya

U are a good companion. I especially appreciate it when you turn into My mode- watchful mode, when assailed by thoughts that breed negativity.Ur control of the tongue needs checking but that too is watched. dance on baby. Its afterall just a game. Iam the background,Always been & Will be.The times u connect with Me r ur precious moments of nothingness,that u like to call them.

Watchin Always

watched a movie today.... name: nadodigal. Was so caught up in the movie that when we we came out of the theatre, it seemed surreal. It seemed as though 2 days had gone by. Very weird, Iam yet to come out of it. All the world's a stage huh??

2009-07-18T23:46:00.001-07:00

Does all this matter?

"That which created me will take care of me."

What a blessing to live by this!

2009-07-12T10:55:00.000-07:00

At times, Maya is so full of love, it becomes hard to even breathe.Its a soaring feeling, and also the most contented. Its a thanksgiving feeling, thanking the universe for everything.

2009-07-12T10:54:00.000-07:00

Wow...U and I are actually a piece of the sky. How wonderful.

He believes that marriage and a career don't mix. So after the wedding he plans to quit his job.

"The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life."
--Sir Hugh Walpole

If Iam a figment of my own imagination , which one of "me" is the REALITY then.

Nothing matters. Coz there is nothing to matter.

2009-05-24T08:23:00.000-07:00

we r all instruments .jus plain instruments in this world. For example, if i get an idea to stop a leaky tap amongst a bunch of ppl, i was just a plain instrument for the idea to take meaning. Had it not occured to me, it would have occured to say Kaaka beside me. If it is to be that the leaky tap be mended in a certain way, it would happen.The meaningfulness of the actual doer ....ok iam now gettin doubtful.

This article was started with the notion that we r all from the same source.We are all one. It doesnt matter if its Maya or Ambi because ultimately we r all one. But then i got a lil confused coz certain things only certain ppl can do. The warmth given by my mom cannot be given by my father and vice versa.

The long and short of it is that whether u exist in physical form or not, life moves on , work will get done, goverments will form & decline, coz its all from the same source.

Of what avail is it if we can travel to the moon,
If we cannot cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves.
This is the most important of all journeys
And without it, all the rest are useless.

-Thomas Merton

It s just extremely difficult to break away from the past, from fixed ideas of grannies, firm beliefs of the household, society's ever-changing morals...to be contd...

before conception

2009-04-24T13:07:00.000-07:00

Where was i Before I was born?? Iam thinking about myself, my life, my family, my friends. But I wasnt thinking about these things before i gained "consciousness" or whatever u may like to call it.

So where was I b4 i got "conscious". Is it the same place "I"ll go after death?

Death, the only fascination thats keeping me alive.The whole mystery surrounding it. There is death happening all around and we continue as if it cannot touch us.

Planning things years ahead. Hahaha. What a cosmic joke.

time

2009-04-24T13:04:00.000-07:00

The time that is spent in trying to grasp the "meaning of life" is time gone from experiencing the PRESENT time. The only reality.

wonder

2009-04-24T12:59:00.000-07:00

We wonder, about the vastness of the universe, the diversity of nature, the whole time space paradigm, evolution, inventions, child's laughter, azure sky, politician's inefficiency, etc etc.

All this is the "Seen".

But the seen is only as far as the Seer is there.

No you, No first paragraph.

So Who are you??

Maya was here

2009-04-24T12:45:00.000-07:00

Words not required to express. I jus KNOW. Thanks.

tc.

nothing

2009-04-24T12:36:00.000-07:00

ok..here iam watching myself ...watching my thoughts, watching my silly behaviour, watching my anger, jealousy, insecurity, elatedness, judgementalness..etc ...wow... wat a blockbuster movie huh? every minute of my life. All free of cost re...:P. so now..if Iam watching myself.. then which is the true ME?? Or is this how things R?. Always been, will be??

Ok fine. Everything`s illusion...try saying that when u suffer in cancerous pain. Try sayin that when u havent seen food for days. When ur roof gets blown away in a cyclone.

Yes,Can say all that, when I KNOW...(not intellectually) but as a living truth from the depth of my being that ..... cannot be explained. can only be felt.

All this written matter is just food for the intellect.

The deep bliss thats occasionally glimpsed, Nothing can describe it. That timeless space thats caught in between work.what a blessing. Thanks.

jus struck me that , the ppl we r comfy with has quite a bit to do with THEM...but also how We behave in their presence,how WE feel in their presence and if we really liked Our behaviour then its a relationship we would foster.

ahh... the blog!

2009-03-29T10:33:00.000-07:00

Wind blows. Its everywhere.

The veil is the indicator that -there's wind and its blowing.

Similarly, life is everywhere.In the stone, in the PC, in ur chair.

And ur body(aka identity) is the veil:)

What a blessing!

Silence-Ah! that wonderful "thing" that ceases the minute it is "conceived".It IS. No beginning or end. Silence is the witness. The base from where the "rest" springs forth.

Amen

nothing much

I jus graduated a few weeks ago.27th June to be exact.The review didnt happen that well, as expected.(temme somehting new!!!phew!)

My dream, once, to become a famous Archi with firms around the globe took a back seat in my last year. My focus was increasingly drawn towards global warming, poverty, destruction of forests etc etc.What is my role? What am I doing here... or for that matter what is anybody doing here?

Why do we do the things that we do? Why do I like blue while u like red? What is that factor that determines things as small as this, to black hole formations?These questions led me to interesting conclusions. A murderer and a saint, sides of the same coin. Labels such as good, evil, mediocre, great.....are just that. Labels. Absoluteness is a myth or maybe not:) if u wish so.:)

Well, a huge nay gigantic tunnel is gettin built in Europe under ground. protons, neutrons travelling at high speeds to be smashed to bits and the resulting particles will hopefully provide clues to the origin of the universe. However audacious it sounds , its a symbol of man`s indomitable quality- curiosity.

to be continued.....

freedom

2008-04-23T22:18:00.000-07:00

I felt bound,fettered and exhausted

Freedom I chose,

Roaming the cosmic worlds

Unshackled from the bonds of Time & Space

Soaring to heights unimagined

Since the Self lost itself completely

Then,returned to this world

To truly enjoy the Game!

Since I understood it to have no rules!
