Projects

 "Project"....




Interesting "concept"....



Quite a few,

keep away from such burdensome concepts in life 😜 ( just enjoy, as much as possible,  and get lost.... they decide to be carefree... byproduct is complacency)



A few "imbibe" the concept "project" and think..... "I must do something worthwhile πŸ™"



Among those who appreciate the concept "project"( by any other word too....to describe it), a few, try to look deeper.....

These people, try to distinguish between me-and-others ( duality). Sacrifice, seems to be about a "project" in favor of "others". 

The ones who feel "me first"...look at it in 2 ways.... the skilled way of dealing with others( including material things). For them, an other concept opens up... "career" ( building up of it )... it leads to amassing wealth, and/or, knowledge as a PhD,  professional,  scientist etc...


These "classifications" overlap each other....



Rare few bother about the "core" being within-a-'me'.... this rarity is owing to perceptional levels, focus and persistence. Such few look at " highest human possibility" ( it invariably leads into a spiritual path)...

The intangible force, energy called life, is assigned different "names" like soul, ΰ€°ूΰ€Ή,  aatma etc... 'spirit' some how paved way to be called spirituality, as a pursuit of knowing more about spirit. Very few "reach" the ultimate. The tragedy on a spiritual path is, either you reach it or you dont... no halfway scores 😜... 99% is as good as 0% 


Long ago, in ancient Bharat,  a whole society decided to adopt, and bequeath a lifestyle which invariably aimed at spiritual growth, no-matter what other-pursuits( projects) are undertaken by any individual. This "lifestyle" never needed a name, till invaders found it difficult to 'refers to our society. That is how, Hinduism got its name as Hindus, for the followers of this life style.



Today, only a few remnants of this rich lifestyle is being followed by a few, forgetting its purpose. 🀣

It is therefore that....the present style of Hinduism is merely offering a "sense of security" only.....instead of leading us unto liberation/moksha/enlightenment/whatever.....  the "idea" of seeking that sense-of-security is a copypaste from "religions(religaire) around the world...  Hinduism (if continued in its present form), will fail miserably ( it ought to fail) very obviously too, because, its very (original) nature is opposed to that of a "religion".  Religion offers security not freedom. Irreligious Hinduism sets our spirit free from human-bondage 😜... 



( i got trapped into spirituality, even before I had the ability to conceptualize anything... so, the idea of "project" got deflected away from me, baba projectile called spirituality 😜)



Where do we stand in this mess of projects, deadlines, lifelines, lifetimes etc????


A projectile, yours

Ancient allocation of duties

 Ancient allocation of duties ( Bharat could “afford” it due to bountiful nature of nature)



If,

We look keenly enough ( pause button of mind), we can notice it… then we might like to observe it, we then behold it to later perceive it, and if luck permits, comprehend it also😜 ( doesn't matter, if we fail at conceptualizing it. Ancient wisdom was in raw, unprocessed,  non_pasturised form, leaving the hassles of conceptualize it, and verbalising and then making it communicable,  to a rare few only)


What to look at?


Simple!  The kind of duties allotted to males & females during the period when sanatana dharma flourished. ( after it got dissipated, sanatana dharma was consciously “nourished” I rare few large families…insulating the inmates from impact of outside world. Last stages, it remains as a token tokenism in few individuals today 😜)


A decade ago, I would have desisted from writing this blog itself( sanctity of topic). Today, no new “excuse” has popped up 🀣… just that, I learnt to be a little diplomatic, shrewd etc at the ancient art of veiled messages ! Brevity at words, I had to wait for in me !


I like to notionally “try” at

Classification of duties into 2 types…

Logical_oriented duties…. And, emotional-oriented duties!


If this excercise yields a result where,

bulk of the woman's duties need emotional excellence 

and,

bulk of the men's duties need excellent logical skills,


Then….. my case wins😜

No elaboration is warranted ( I am saved from indulging into desecration of its traditional sanctity)


For starters( like in buffets…. appetizers etcπŸ™πŸ˜œπŸ€£)

Females are gifted with emotional abilities, a bit more

Males are naturally good at logical skills …


So tuitions ( based on experience,  in that teacher) is best when

Females teach emotions and males teach logic to their kids….

Female kids, discover a bond with their dad, while male kids logically_lean on their mom's  for emotional comforting… πŸ˜œπŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™


I am required to put in efforts to restrain elaboration.

Females evolved into peak levels of emotional skills, when we “find” the remnants of a powerful ritual called Sumangali_prarthana, in a few families, observed/performed very ritualistically, sans symbolims( i seek pardon from “Madoms”... for saying this blatantly 😰)

Logical skills, have turned very-robotic, stripped off the humanism etc, and a rat-race spurred by competition frm females to “asset equality” with logical_idiots πŸ€£πŸ™… ( femininity, essentially needs very subtle emotions at its best peak levels. “Shakti as a female entity, is found in the subtlest form of gross power….which is emotions!)

Noses, spices and taste buds

 Noses, spices and taste buds


book mark stuff



You need to sift out of my blabber 😜




Like,



Between  nose & tongue....

Nose is easier to get_convinced about a dish ( yummy or dummy)



Lesser sensitive societies.....remain stuck to noses for their food preferences.

(  i have no personal “grudge” against any lesser evolved society. Common sense. Like, no use, no point asking an Eskimo to try vegetarianism 😜)


Evolved societies.... _*strive*_ 

to 

acquire refinement in sensitivity....



Kerala ( being tantra based , as against rest_of_Bharat, mantra based...) happened to delve into sensitizing tongue, very consciouslyπŸ™( I looked at several evidences to come to this conclusion)....



Easily verifiable evidence.

Olan...a dish loved by mallus...finds no takers around India or waralld/world....

As we travel north, from kerala..spices in dishes get severe.... punjab makes food so_spicy, asking for pickles is an insult to a host 😭... 


Still,Bharat  can boast of tongue's  efficiency. ( buy spices from dubai....you will "notice" that they are......aromatic 😜.... means? Noses....not tongue_specific.




If Google search is unable to give you evidence of what I (afore)said here....

Does it _*necessarily*_ mean i am wrong? ( 😰)



Testily/tastyly yours,

A pilots job

 A pilots job is strenuous.



Somewhere in 1968__1972

I heard a story of a courtcase in Germany. 

Hours of work and wages.

The appellants sought justice " we slog 48 hrs a week and get paid "x" amount.... an airplane pilot works just few hours( single digit hours) per month, gets paid temples times than us πŸ™"



Judges employed experts in psychology & neurology to analyze the stress,  strain, alertness, etc "on job", recording the neuro data as evidence.

It took a few weeks to test, retest....etc 

Finally the reports were submitted to the judges.

Now the judges could apply reasoning, once the subtle, technical plus medical data were translated into layman's figures...


Judges pronounced the verdict.

" the wages of airplane pilots should be increased a few more times! They are "underpaid" for the quality in hours they put in."



( it seems, the medical did a _*thorough*_ job in research πŸ˜†...


Some 200 dials, set on_board ...

Due to space constraints, few dials were on the slanting ceiling of pilots cabin. Looking up often is a "neck pain" figuratively &literally πŸ™‚)..


These 200 + dials, look alike... the needle keeps moving sideways ....mockingly... ( figure me out, you dumb!)


Each meter is very different from the other.... altitude meter, air pressure meter, heat meter, fuel meter ....examples that we can understand. 

Every 5 minutes, that pilot needs to pass his glance quickly, yet thoroughly, and comprehend its relationships mutually. 

The cost of plane is itself too high. Passengers are "cream" of the humans crawling 3000 feet below 😜


This brain, 

Inside the pilot's head...

is a rare kind of 2_in_1 and at its peak level of performance. 

Multi tasking PLUS sharp focusing .... simultaneously,  all the "flying hours"...



Its a myth that "auto pilot" affords "relaxation"....

It adds to the mental stress of the pilot. Its like God has given the humans an "auto-pilot" mode.... and look at the bloody mess we created?????  We destroyed even the periphery of earth, making it difficult to send the next_rocket to avoid the floating debris of previous onesπŸ™ƒ...

God needs to monitor each_stupid_autoPilot on millisecond basis.... nuclear technology is formidable . This fool, called human,  can't create another "earth" ( why so much? This idiot can't pull out a grass from earth...it has to grow by itself)... but, he can destroy this planet by pressing just one red button, either in Moscow, or in New York ( etc in future)....



Auto pilot is only adding to the human pilot's tension...



I don't want a God's job.... unenviable response_ability ( responsibility). I dont ever complain about God, to any one, or to God himself. I simply bow with utmost reverence possible in me ( even this ability to "have reverence" for God, is God's copyright software. I feel so stupid, thinking that "ah!!...I can feel gratitude, reverence and thereby claim to be humble??? ".... nonsense πŸ˜†.



Manually yours,

Imported Versus Desi GYAN

  Imported versus desi gyan

I get a bombardment of imported “gyan” on my smartphone daily .


Everybody suffers this ….. so, I can't complain. ( what an argument πŸ€”πŸ™πŸ˜­)


Anyway…. I try to ask, quite genuinely, to the sender , a very-related query/doubt etc connected with that gyan. 

A fair chance for me to “learn”.( or, a reasonable opportunity for sender to review the garbage dumped on me )





I don't expect at all , that my query is going to explain something....


At best, it might set us to think " why should a 'Gyan'/sermon/adage/proverb/etc, give scope for a sensible query?"



Desi proverbs, adage, sayings ( in any of all the native languages) are time_tested, wisdom filled and irrefutable ones... ( probably a few are tough to understand, but still, no scope for conflict, confusion, or doubts on its veracity)



Whereas, we have whole list of proverbs, paired as mutually conflicting ones, in "English"( origin)....

Like "Slow & steady wins the race", opposes "time & tide waits for no man" 😭😭😭


Long list.



Yet, we find a fancy for copypasting/forwarding  only phoren stuff....


( i won't try to elaborate on "reasons" why.....our desi_stuff .....works better or, seems loop_holes_free ....😜... 

I welcome any sensible argument disproving/dis_approving my contention  πŸ™)




By fluke/stray_chance/sheer_luck...... if I am  right..... shall we think of circulating, copy pasting, forwarding desi_stuff???? 

Make in India?  ( spirituality is still the monopoly of Bharat,  as a bulk supplier 🀣... )



Who will take that risk? ( desi is looked at as something inferior ….due to colonial mentality 😜)


Utterly desi, yours

Rented versus Own house

 Rented versus own house


The experience of “dwelling” at these 2 places gives us an opportunity to experience and live through certain core concepts which are very basic to life.


My entire 3 decades since birth was at rented houses. Then, I managed to buy a piece of land, built a house, and lived in it thereafter.


“Bhikari ko sau bheek” an adage i heard de ades ago.

Beggar gets a taste of hundred dishes…… is the crude translation. The message is, “though a beggar needs to beg…he tastes food from different kitchen daily😜🀣”  ( whereas, non_beggars are “stuck” to eating the same taste from same kitchen for life…..😜…. Is not a beggar better off, in that sense?)


Rented dwellers keep changing houses( or at least….they have that “choice”)... I lived in 3 places at all the 3 cities, I lived on rented accommodation.  It had its own drawbacks, like hitting a nail on the wall needs prior permission 🀣…. The moment I moved into my own house, the first thing I announced to my sister was “go ahead….drive a nail anywhere you like..πŸ‘  now, it's our place!” ( yeah! I didn't have to drive a fresh nail anywhere, after she VACATED the rented/borrowed body on this planet πŸ™…



I asked myself ( and then “tested” my question, asking my wife) “ why do I need to remain stuck in my own house, just because I own it? “

I tried simple replies to myself “ if a close person, a relative or friend can agree, we can have a “change” exchanging the dwelling into each others houses for a week, fortnight….every year”... the idea πŸ’‘….brought a smile too 😜…. Damn good yaar!... just a few clothes is all that is needed, unlike the miserable rented fellow who moves “lock_stock_and_barrel”(whatever that meant πŸ™„πŸ˜³){https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lock,_stock,_and_barrel#:~:text=%22Lock%2C%20stock%2C%20and%20barrel,the%20stock%2C%20and%20the%20barrel. }

Tremendous advantage…. 

Awesome change …. Trust renewed…. Win_win situation.



Such pleasant thoughts drives me invariably into spiritual arena.

Rented versus own body for my spirit/atma/rooh/soul/whatever….

After death, I quit this body.  Then, I dont know what happens to me_or_myBody… my buddies take care of disposing my carcass ( all other life forms dispose their-own bodies very decently 😜… a herd of elephants is never known to cause any pollution in a forest after its death. Whereas, a domesticated elephant costs “hell” to gets its body disposed!


Can two peepals/people exchange rented bodies while alive? ( yes & no….depending upon individuals…) a living person can rent a dead corpse temporarily, as in the story of adishankara, during a debate with the wife of first pontiff of Sringeri mutt… he migrated into a dead king's body, for a week, came back into his own body and continued the debate, to win πŸ™πŸ‘


Partial_occupation, without any serious encroachment……is also a strong possibility. Emotion is the driving drill_bit….and the process is empathy/ΰ€Έΰ€Ή__ΰ€…ΰ€¨ुΰ€­ूΰ€€ि …. technical name is ΰ€­ाΰ€΅ ΰ€Έ्ΰ€ͺΰ€¨्ΰ€¦ΰ€¨ ( sympathetic vibration,  or…simple harmonic vibration, that i learnt in ΰ€‡school/madarsa, as physics lessons, using tuning forks)  this hindi word ΰ€Έΰ€Ήाΰ€¨ुΰ€­ूΰ€€ि is often mistakenly_used for “sympathy” while it is meant for co_experience/empathy…. Stepping_into_shoes of the_other…

( a few spiritual programs, afforded me a glimpse at “how it feels, to permeate into someone else's emotional body…😳… “ it happens by itself….a short lived thing like a mushroom popping up during lightening, rain etc, and fading out in few hoursπŸ™



Anyway,  the “concept” of renting an accommodation, for my body or the_body for my “being”....helped me to loosen myself a little,  within me… ( Nagpur_oranges when ripe, wobble inside its firm round and shiny skin, quite independently 😜… Likewise, I feel a little loose within my rented body🀣



Accomodatively yours,

Our perceptions

 Our perceptions 



#SillyKoschan

are you having the ability to notice the latent “qualities” in any person, who is largely available within your proximity?( simplified form: if, N.D.Modi had continued to be a chaiwala/teaServer near you for 10 yrs, would have “listed” out several qualities in him? ( so_called andhBhakht, can list good, whereas haters can list bad qualities, though neither of them ever met him in person 😜). My colleages"discovered"me afresh after I turned ex-colleagueπŸ˜œπŸ™



https://www.kooapp.com/koo/SpiritualSeeker/914b788a-8f66-47d3-9cd4-ad9b0f18faf7



( my teacher in spiritual program had asked us “ suppose the fellow seated next to you in an overcrowded bus/train……is a fully enlightened person, how would you know? He may even  quarrel with you for space, jostling in crowd “. It flattened me, that question.  I borrowed the concept of the retired chief cop of the story/novel/movie “day of the jackal” …. He didn't know which minister was a mole, and therefore he bugged everybody's phone 😜… i decided to do a naman to everybody i “see” around….it doesn't cost a dime πŸ˜…… but any benefit, is directly proportional to my intensity within. I can always quarrel too πŸ‘)


But, there ought to be a way to know……isn't it? 

Like all subtle things, concepts etc….the tool is perception…. Deepen it as best as possible,  and keep_on deepening it ever always… ( over the decades…..i can sight/spot many aspects latent in peepals/around, just by looking at them. I even tried asking a fellow passenger, a rustic “ ayya/si, are you into milk bijness?” He was astounded” how do you know.?”,... I responded “the thumb of yours…hardened skin, rubbing on udders for years….skin_modification… “ and he felt convinced. But when I guess the “dreams” of somebody, I can't “explain” how I deduced.. )



Learning things from hearsay only……

is akin to scoring high marks in exam after mugging books and pasting it on answerPaper…. It has nothing to do with perception.  Worse, we are a tool in the hands of toolkit experts, who plant hate in me about a “Modi”... my own buddhi is absent. I am a buddhoo… if not a buddha, at least a buddhi, from budhoo? … may we wake up into a deeper perception than last night?



Latently yours,


psn, (20 February 2024)




Education versus Literacy

 https://www.kooapp.com/koo/SpiritualSeeker/30b68a97-0ec4-4dfc-8f5b-4117848b7625




#Education  Versus  #Literacy 


Basics, fundamentals,  etc about

what is "intended to be taught"  should be 'comprehensive' at early stages, and should be 'elaborate' at later stages....  ( for both....education & literacy)


Education is a must, for every human, whereas, literacy is by choice. ( ideally, a good education enables a student about "in which area/subject should I get literacy? "


Education in how to ....1 ) learn,2)stabilize emotions,3)deepenPerception,4)use discrimination πŸ™




( example: matriculation subjects are COMPREHENSIVE, not elaborate....hence common for all... 

Within engineering,  1st semester is common for all, not elaborate... 

Later, .....higher level of literacy is elaborated selectively)



What about educating the basics of "life itself"????


Starts with parenting.....mom teaches in her womb as her classroom... dad joins when a baby gets acclimatized to its  birth house,  into a home.

School teacher can only "supplement" it further, if parents had_already given basic_inputs, not otherwise πŸ™) ..... 


today, education itself is out-of-syllabus, basics-of-life is unknown to parents in a structured syllabi-format, schools ignore it 😜...


Then kids?

Every kid is more alert than usual, when teacher marks "important" portions/chapters/lessons for exam... kids grasp the whole_concept upside down. Marks decides, not learning πŸ˜œπŸ™



Illiterately yours,

My blogs

 My blogs



I kooed 

https://www.kooapp.com/koo/SpiritualSeeker/1052c603-c5fe-4c61-841c-2871deacbed0



 

#Response_ability


#silly_koschan πŸ™

“no response” says the doctor, when he checks a patient in deep coma. But, when we are okay, and interact with our life situations all our waking hours, how often do we respond, instead of reacting ??? ( now, do you feel a reaction to this silly koschan, or does a response surge ?)


Then I re_viewed myself 


My weakness  ( one of the numerous weaknesses, actually 😜)



I look for how a person decides to interact with me?

Response, or a reaction 😜


Seldom, it fails me πŸ™

( blogs, comments, etc ....for instance.....

I know exactly.....how the mind is going to look at my "wordings"....


Experts in conducting written/oral tests....for recruitment etc... face the challenge of devising fail_safe options in objective type questions....



Whereas, clever ones include responsive type questions. ( one simple question i recollect from my SSB interview 1967_68 (42nd batch of NDA.....

Placard displayed for 5 seconds. Within 30 seconds write a sentence "using" the word "knife" on placard.... no time for conjuring dubiously your cleverness.

Few responses...

Knife is used in kitchen ( good for being a cook, not nda)

Knife is often a murder weapon ( negative fellow)

Knife is a good tool for self_defence ( ah! Good candidate)



And so on




My blogs revolve around spiritual aspect of.....how our mind hinders our spiritual evolvement... ( spirit is the life inside a body.... evolved spirit means quality life ,,,,thats all πŸ™ƒ)... 

No reply, means....a response by the spirit, is blocked by the apprehensive karmic mind 😜... response means, " yep! I am prepared to look, if....what you say is true for_me πŸ‘"



Readily yours
