Feelings & Emotions


Life has changed completely and yes I allowed it to change
Friends have changed
Emotions are tearing apart and nerves are breaking
Throat is choked, unable to swallow life's joke
Eagerly waiting to move on but,
Time doesn't pass on ..
Nowhere to go
No one to hear
Here I come my old blog
To contemplate on what's wrong ...

I am Back...without a bang

I am Back...there is so much to share and realize. Let me stop here and contemplate!!!

Live and Let Live or Give & Take

Every individual has some basic expectations from the other person irrespective of relationship like friend, spouse, blood relations etc.

Some will clearly get what their want or maybe they are able to communicate clearly or it can be anything. However people say that every relationship should have this “Give and Take” policy.

The biggest question in everyone’s life is what one should GIVE and TAKE?
Every person is unique and anything overdone as in Over GIVING OR over TAKING is also injurious.

I am currently trying to find out this Giving and taking in life, to what extent I should compromise willingly and to what extent I can expect as I don’t want to LIVE/GIVE a diplomatic life neither I expect to TAKE it that way.

Let me know if anyone has practical answers without any gyan sessions.

Let me think to lead a good life………………………To be continued……

Never Imagined

So.. I never imagined that one day I would go back to Tanjore Village and live in the huts

Never imagined that one day I would swing on a wooden plank tied to a mango tree and sing all my favourite songs

Never imagined that I put my feet in a temple tank look alike swimming pool and just listen to the sounds of the birds for hours together

Never imagined that I would get this close to the nature hidden from the outside world



Never imagined that I would take a walk on the village streets till my sandals could not take anymore

Never imagined that I would learn the making of a bronze statues

Never imagined that one day I would accompany a potter and make a mud lamp

Never imagined that there is so much skill hidden from the outside world



Never imagined that one day I would eat delicious “Stand idly” with Vadakari

Never imagined that reading a book under a tree shade will give so much pleasure

Never imagined that hanging around the courtyard was so interesting

Never imagined that there is so much peace hidden from the outside world



Never Imagined that I would read Aug 15 1947 news paper

Never imagined that I would one day use the manual phone

Never imagined that I would understand and look at the Tanjore paintings

Never Imagined that there is so much treasure hidden from the outside world



Never Imagined that the noise made by the huge trees was so melodious

Never imagined that I would pluck a rare fruit from a lemon tree

Never Imagined that I would see beautiful mud carvings and stones

Never imagined that India had so much treasure and skill hidden from the outside world



Now I imagine myself here coming again and again

Now I imagine that the best things in life are closer to you

Now I imagine how to lead a peaceful life

I don’t want to imagine that I need to live in the outside world and

I imagine coming back to the same place again and again

So...Life is going to be like this!!!

Have we ever wondered about power of words??

Words are more powerful than thoughts.
Thoughts are many, unending,
Few cross our minds
Few stay for a while and
Few turn into a cloud and rain in the form of words

Any thought which stays with us for more than a day may form into a word and the power of word will manifest into an action.

I feel it all depends on the intensity of the thought process, the more intensely you utter a word the faster it manifests into an action.
Once it manifests into an action - you will realize that this is what once you have asked for ( you remember or don’t)

We seldom understand this concept and talk about destiny etc but destiny is all about your actions…words…thoughts of past..( reverse gear)

Let me take an example, a negative one for a quick understanding ..– “Curse and blessing”…this comes in all forms…we think that this used to exist before during sages period etc but the fact is it does exist everywhere within us as well

WE must have heard about curses in olden days- once the word is uttered then there is no taking back , the power it carries with it is immense and will take a form of action. People search for alternate remedies for it

The same amount of frustration if not expressed will definitely effect the other person on a mental level but never takes a form.( telepathy – not sure :))

Same is the case for blessings- You need to utter it.

So people!!!! what I am concluding here per my experience is to watch out your thoughts and exercise caution while expressing them as you know for sure they will take a form someday.

Yeah! There is another concept of Unspoken words which works…let me think.

Memorable quotes

Nostalgia...

Elizabeth Bennet: Do you deny it, Mr.Darcy? That you seperated a young couple who loved each other, exposing your friend to the censure world of caprice and *my sister* to derision and dissapointed hopes, involving them both in acute misery of the worst kind and...
Mr. Darcy: I do not deny it.
Elizabeth Bennet: How could you do it?
Mr. Darcy: Because I believed your sister was indifferent.
Elizabeth Bennet: Indifferent?
Mr. Darcy: I observed them most carefully and realized his attachment was far deeper than hers.
Elizabeth Bennet: That's because she's shy!
Mr. Darcy: Bingley to was modestly persuaded that she didn't feel strongly.
Elizabeth Bennet: Because you suggested it!
Mr. Darcy: I did it for his own good!
Elizabeth Bennet: My sister hardly shows her true feelings to me.

Elizabeth Bennet: I suppose his... fortune had some bearing?
Mr. Darcy: No, believe me I wouldn't do your sister the dishonour it was just merely suggested...
Elizabeth Bennet: What was?
Mr. Darcy: It was clear that an advantageous marriage would be the worst option possible...
Elizabeth Bennet: Did my sister give that impression?
Mr. Darcy: No! No, there was, however, the matter of your family...
Elizabeth Bennet: Our want of connection? Mr.Bingley did not seem to object...
Mr. Darcy: No, it was more than that.
Elizabeth Bennet: How, sir?
Mr. Darcy: It was the lack of propriety shown by your mother, your three younger sisters, and even, on the occasion, your father.
[thunder clash, Elizabeth is hurt]
Mr. Darcy: Forgive me. You and your sister I must exclude from this.
Elizabeth Bennet: And what about Mr.Wickham?
Mr. Darcy: Mr.Wickham?
Elizabeth Bennet: What excuse can you give for your behavior toward him? He told of his misfortunes and yet you treat him with sarcasm.
Mr. Darcy: So this is your opinon of me? Thank you. Perhaps these offences might have been had your pride not been hurt by scruples about our relationship. Am to rejoice in the inferiority of your recent circumstances?
Elizabeth Bennet: And those are the words of a gentleman? From the moment I met you your aroggance and conceit and your selfish disdain for the feelings of other made me realize that you are the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry.


Mr. Darcy: So this is your opinion of me. Thank you for explaining so fully. Perhaps these offences might have be overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my honesty...
Elizabeth Bennet: My pride?
Mr. Darcy: ...in admitting scruples about our relationship. Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority of your circumstances?
Elizabeth Bennet: And those are the words of a gentleman. From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry.

Mr. Darcy: Forgive me, madam, for taking up so much of your time.

Same pinch from BC to AD.....

Birth to death the process is same, food is same, lifestyle is same, and everyone grows from 0 to till date years. Bloody the organs are also made of same tissues n stuff.
Scenarios are same from BC to AD.
Similar situations like education, play, work, love, relationships, home etc can be found in 90% of the population.Life/situations are similar to everyone since BC to AD….i have observed that there is no escape in anything by anyone then
Why are we not learning????
What is life trying to teach us??
Why there is so much confusion (if they think so) in life?

I realized-ing that it is only that i want to be different from others. Situations from birth to death to any baby is similar and even the decisions they make in their life are also similar.
Everything what i have experienced or experiencing, will experience was gone through by some millions of people or rather everyone then what exactly am I doing???

Life teaches everyone, mind you in its smartest way but then I am not willing to learn/unlearn until i have experienced happy or sad situations.

What I have observed that life is teaching everyone, is there a way to say that"I already know this ….I want/don’t want to experience this situation”. There cannot be a “situation free” day in my life but what I felt was that once i have a general understanding on regular life( eat, work, pray, hobbies, party, play and sleep ) then i better start thinking on what is that different or a new thing that I am doing/can do? Or do I want to continue this lifestyle? What is wrong in living like this?
Nothing is wrong but yes nothing is right as well.



Will this help us to evolve as a person??
Evolve????
Imagine a person with the above understanding might have less reactions (coz he knows why and what) less emotional (coz he knows), less attachments etc….less baggage with him. Just like a drop of water on a lotus leaf. He does everything without actually getting into anything. (Extremely different!)
May be at least then the other part of the brain might get a chance to work!!!!!!!!!!

The + and - of life

I wanted to share an interesting random thought which i got today.
I really wanted to spend some quality time with my loved ones but then got so busy with work and other activities, i just couldn't (though i badly needed). The very thought of sitting before them gives me so much energy, i started thinking that the kind of energy you derive or get just by meeting your loved one...it is just that extra proteins u gain.
Most of the times we tend to like some people and cannot stand few at all. Why all this happens?
My crazy brain started thinking .....i came to a decent conclusion that when i am with a specific person there is some kind of trasmission happens , exchange of energy, or an aura which surrounds every human being. We can call it negative or positive energy.
So my point is when you are with a person and if his/her aura suits you then you will like and tend to be with them. Similarly u cant stand few at all for all the above reasons.
The question is " Is your energy/aura positive or negative??"

Rewind

"What happened to you? Is everything ok with you? " shouted my friend on the other line.
I got somany calls since 2 days, my friends called and checked if something was wrong. I blamed it on my recent posts.
Finally i understood that people have a set opinion and expect you to behave the way as they perceived you. A common feedback i got was that i changed, my expressions, thoughts etc changed. They liked my mental stuff more than the general things i started posting recently.
Hmmm.....i am trying to figure it out....what am i doing, where am i heading to and what am i up to. Is this growth or something else? Or i am trying ot meet someone's expectations here?
The journey of my thoughts have a taken a left/right but not straight i guess. If this is what i am then i better start to forsee the possible halt.
I think its time to think and get back to my shell again!

Wah! wah! Irshad.....

Today i somehow got into a mood of ghazal's, sher's an shayari....
This is just a jhalak ....

"Hasi ne labo par Thirakna Chod diya
Khwabon ne palkon par aana chod diya
Nahi aati ab tho Hitchkitchiyan bhi
Shayad aap ne hame yaad karne chod diya"

"Usko Chaha bhi tho Izhar karna nahi aaya
Kat gayi umar saari hume pyar karna nahi aaya
Usne maangi bhi tho Judai mangi aur
Hum the ki hume inkar bhi karna na aaya!!!!!!!!!

Heavy!!!!!!!!! i guess ..along with shayari..one needs a great company to "hic" along. The best part of shayari is not everyone can tell neither can enjoy.
I recommend everyone one should once in a while indulge in shayari and keep doing wah! wah!

Aaadab!

Wax Models.....Oooooh!!

I did check lot of celebrities wax models being unveiled....i loved them all. I have a different opinion when i checked out the wax model's. Definately they must have done a brain storming session before selecting a particular picture or a pose.
According to my opinion,the snap to be choosen should be the celebrity's most important peak achievement and snap should be recorded. That mement has to get captured and should be treasured in the way of wax model etc and not any other moment.
Is anyone listeneing????

See through conversations!

One misnute wisdom is one of the books that i always loved to read again and again. Everytime i read i get a new meaning. This book is filled with one page conversations, go through a few and i am sure most of you all will see through them.

1."The trouble with the world," said the Master with a sigh, "is that human beings refuse to grow up." "When can a person be said to have grown up?" asked a disciple. "On the day he does not need to be lied to about anything."

2.To the woman who complained that riches hadn't made her happy the Master said, "You speak as if luxury and comfort were ingredients of happiness; whereas all you need to be really happy, my dear, is something to be enthusiastic about."

3.The disciples were involved in a heated discussion on the cause of human suffering.
Some said it came from selfishness. Others, from delusion. Yet others, from the inability to distinguish the real from the unreal.
When the Master was consulted, he said, "All suffering comes from a person's inability to sit still and be alone."

4.A newly married couple said, "What shall we do to make our love endure?"
Said the Master, "Love other things together."

5.It always pleased the Master to hear people recognize their ignorance.
"Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one's awareness of one's ignorance," he claimed.
When asked for an explanation, he said, "When you come to see you are not as wise today as you thought you were yesterday, you are wiser today."

6.The Master was always teaching that guilt is an evil emotion to be avoided like the very devil -- all guilt.
"But are we not to hate our sins?" a disciple said one day.
"When you are guilty, it is not your sins you hate but yourself."

7.The Master always frowned on anything that seemed sensational. "The divine," he claimed, "is only found in the ordinary."
To a disciple who was attempting forms of asceticism that bordered on the bizarre the Master was heard to say, "Holiness is a mysterious thing: The greater it is, the less it is noticed."

8."What would spirituality give me?" said an alcoholic to the Master.
"Nonalcoholic intoxication," was the answer.

9. To a woman who complained about her destiny the Master said, "It is you who make your destiny."
"But surely I am not responsible for being born a woman?"
"Being born a woman isn't destiny.That is fate. Destiny is how you accept your womanhood and what you make of it."

10."How shall I rid myself of fear?"
"How can you rid yourself of what you cling to?"
"You mean I actually cling to my fears? I cannot agree to that."
"Consider what your fear protects you from and you will agree! And you will see your folly."

Anthony de Mello, SJ, One Minute Wisdom

Yeah! these are really fantastic!

Passwords and Cosmos!

Hmmm am back...not getting enough time to be with myself :-(

Disclaimer: Read at your own risk and any kind of damage to the reader is not blogger's responsibility.

I was thinking the other day, the technology invented by Man” banking passwords”. To deposit, to draw your own money etc you need passwords. Combinations of few numbers, alpha numeric characters will determine if u can withdraw, transfer your OWN money. Just imagine to draw your own money you need to memorise your passwords!!!

When a human is born, he is entitled to lot of his things in this world. His own oxygen, light, how much he consumes energy from sun, his food etc.
Now my point is when I referred to the word cosmos, there are lot of energies around, some people call it as powers, unusual powers, magic etc in the space around.
To withdraw all that the way modern man used numbers and alphabets to create passwords, ancient man did lot of research on each type of energy (referred as gods too), used alphabets etc to invent Mantrams which act like passwords.

Everyone has their own energy stored in the cosmos like a bank account. Mantrams act like a password and helps us to withdraw the energy from it.
You may ask then why so many gods/mantrams? I think it is just that we have different customised policies, types of bank accounts offered by various financial institutions and we choose the one which is suits our needs, similarly we have different forms of energies around Since people believe in tangible products to get the touch n feel factor, the energy around us also take forms of various gods and display their energies in the form of their qualities, stories etc.

So, a man can decide his requirement and can get his password to withdraw his required qualities. The more u memorise n recite, u will withdraw more energies faster from cosmos. If you stop then even that will stop. If you do it continuously then one day u might become that energy and automatically you will get the powers.( wow! i hope it is true!)
For ex: if you observe in a Ganesha temple the priest automatically gets the quality of that deity by reciting his passwords continuosly.

I am not trying to preach any religion etc but these are my thoughts about the word called mantram.

I guess this is too much to swallow, so just relax and do not regret why you read all this. You always have a shift delete button in your brain so please feel free to use it ;-)

Choose the correct one!

Wish you all a very happy and properous 2009. Hope this year makes us more wiser and mischievious!

Yeah! Since we are human beings, we tend to get tensed if even one of these (wants ,,needs,,,life,,love..lust..money..power..politics..career..) are not reachable to us*. *Conditions do apply on the intensity of the want.

If it is high then it becomes a need. People do have the ability to live without this and still can be happy....but lot of maturity etc is required to understand the breakeven.

Not all get all these ,what is mentioned but again life is like that. The confusion, frustration, discouragement, sadness etc follow suit and makes one's life miserable.

One way of living is to understand what you can get and wht is not possible and be really happy abt it.

Or

Sit and brood over things and think like sour grapes policy-This will lead to an unhappy situation

Or

Should be a go getter and by hook or crook get what u want.( can be a self made man/inherit/ become a don)

Or

Finally compromise is a word…which sounds like hatred but that is how most of them live bt don't say- This part of living life is not with complete happiness but with modest share of it.

People call it Philosophy..i call it choice of living life.
