Old school visit

Visited my old school St. Mary's matriculation school after 23 years. What a terrific experience!  < This blog will  be updated>

This lie is a coincidence

My blog entry on 'language distorted the world' should have been actually titled "Everyone speaks lies". I am pleasantly surprised to read the book review in TOI on a book titled "Why we Lie". Visit this link



This book is about the psychology behind lying.



And this lie is a coincidence and its a true lie :)   Can I someone explain this coincidence?

 

Language distorted the world

When our ancestor tribals needed a mechanism to communicate, language was born. But language itself an incomplete tool because our men could not get enough of the language. Perceptions, understanding, communication of the same topic is different for different people and finally we all have our own worlds of this whole world.

I would say, we are speaking lies, hearing lies and interpreting lies and nothing true.

Till we see world's invisible powers (like electricity), we carry a different perception and different set of language.

And above all every human is a bundle of emotions.

As you read this blog, your perception of the world is very miniscule, because you are influenced by recent events and knowledge and do not have the whole reality.

So, dont take anyone wrong, dont take anyone right.

What will you celebrate?

What will let you celebrate if you were given an opportunity?  The moment itself.  The sunshine. The wind. The amazing art of breath. The life. Everything.



Its madness that we celebrate every year, meaningless functions, that are out of context. Every Indian, every religion, every sect has a bunch of days for themselves to celebrate just add some colour to their lives.



Celebrate this moment.

Man in sewage water, neck level!

Today, I happened to notice the overflowing sewage water

God comes to court

Its very strange. God gave you the space and you are giving space to God now. 

To me, the whole Ayodhya Verdict episode is untimely. The legal machine is too slow. We do not penalize anybody even if we know somebody is wrong. We allow things to go out of context and pass it on to the next generation to solve.

When the first verdict date was announced, holidays were announced due to fear of violence. We celebrate Independence Day amidst lakhs of police security.  Court should think about the inconvenience to the whole society when such a verdict comes on a weekday. Chaos across the country!

I was listening to the SPACE Music today. This whole world is yours. This whole world is mine. Own it. Take responsibility. Why fight for a small piece of land for your stardom? If you have rebel in you, fight against corruption, fight for the less privileged. That alone is divine. Your hunger for power never ends. We have lost countless lives through our internal wars. For name sake, you will chant "Eshwar Allah Tere Naam" on Gandhi Jayanthi - but do you know the meaning?





The whole world is converging. Our cultures are converging. Our attitudes are converging. Our religions are still various. We need just one religion for our country. It is called Love. With out understanding the true meaning of love, your claim as a Hindu, Muslim, or Christian, its baseless. Your understanding of God is not that of a supreme power. God is your psychological tool. You are using "it" for your own strengths and weaknesses. The real God is within you and it is Love. The real God is also outside you - its Nature.

Sept 6: உலக கதிர் தினம்

உலக கதிர் தினம்

என் அன்பு தம்பி கதிர்க்கு,

பிறந்த நாள் வாழ்த்துகள்.

ஏதோ ஒரு மூலையில் பிறந்து, எங்கோ வளர்ந்து, அழகாய் ஒரு இடத்தில வந்து சந்தித்த பொழது கூட தெரியாது, நாம் இப்படி ஒன்றி போவோம் என்று.

சில சமயம் நினைத்துக் கொள்வேன் - உன்னுடைய வாழ்க்கை ஒரு ஹீரோவின் வாழ்க்கை என்று. எவ்வளவு கஷ்டங்கள் வந்தாலும் எழும்பும் பெரிய சமுத்திர அலையை சந்திக்கும் தீரன் போல புகுந்து வெளி வருகிறாய். உன்னுடைய எளிமை, உன்னுடைய யதார்த்தம், உன்னுடைய timing, உன்னுடைய sense of humour, - எல்லாவற்றுக்கும் நான் எப்பவும் fan (தமிழில் டைப் செய்தால் பேன் என்று வருகிறது).

நீ உன் வாழ்கையை full size க்கு வாழ்கிறாய்  என்று நான் சொல்லுவேன்.

பெரும்பாலும் உன் சொந்த முடிவுகளை நீ எடுப்பாய் என்றாலும், ஒரு அண்ணனாக என்னை மதித்து கலந்தாலோசிப்பது என்னக்கு பெருமை.  நீயும் கிர்த்தியும் வாழ்வில் மிகவும் சிறப்பாக வருவீர்கள்.

உன்னுடைய பிறந்த நாளை முன்னிட்டு Sept 6 தினத்தை உலக கதிர் தினமாக அறிவிக்கிறேன்.



அன்பு அண்ணா,

கணேஷ்
