AI is brain, not intellect

 A.I. is brain, not intellect 


A very close friend searched for difference between asheervad and Anugrah ( blessings and benediction)


A.I. responded with 

Quote: Aashirwad (เค†เคถीเคฐ्‌เคตाเคฆ) is a Hindi word meaning 'blessing' or 'good wishes'. It's often used to express goodwill or a positive sentiment towards someone.


Anugraham (เด…เดจുเด—്เดฐเดนം) is a Malayalam word that also means 'blessing' or 'grace'.


While both words convey a similar meaning, there's a subtle difference in connotation:

- Aashirwad often implies a more active or intentional act of blessing or wishing well.

- Anugraham typically carries a sense of divine or unconditional grace, often implying a more passive or benevolent act.


In everyday usage, both words are used interchangeably to express goodwill or blessings.


Would you like to explore more words or their cultural context?”


And he added : “AI response.”

Unquote.


My reply to my friend:

Quote 

Exactly ๐Ÿ˜‚


A.I. responds with only that data which is 'fed' into it.

But it does a "good job" ...collecting the pattern from a randomised data ๐Ÿ™



The human brain" is doing the "A.I." job.....(Whereas Human "intellect" is entirely different from A.I. ๐Ÿ˜‚....  เคถाเคฏเคฆ , A.B. เคœ्เคฏाเคฆा เค ीเค• เคนोเค—ा . Artificial brain ๐Ÿ™)


Though not an exact definition.....


A relatable example,

Where a "functional sample" of human intellect can be seen ๐Ÿ™...is in a popular story = Valmiki conceived+ wrote Ramayana, before it happened (๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™...  เคฆृเคท्เคŸा,  เคชांเคšเคตां เคช्เคฐเค•ाเคฐ เค•ा teacher, เคœिเคธเคธे เคธिเคฐ्เคซ "เค—ुเคฐु" เคนी เคŠเคชเคฐ เคนै ๐Ÿ˜œ)

Unquote 



We average minds refer to our memories most of the time, and our brain processes only the data fed into it. 

When the “mind” is the boss, the brain obligates only the mind. ๐Ÿ˜œ

The brain is “accustomed” to become inactive, when the mind is not in the chair of a boss ๐Ÿ˜‚ ( Nature alerts the brain, only in an emergency…. ).  Deep-sleep state is an example.


Who inside me, is the listener, the experiencer, the receiver of data_input, matters ๐Ÿ‘ (a great being explained it with the acronyms BMI→PFT→OET)....

Identification of the ‘who’ is only after a grasp of the distinction between terms like brain, mind, intellect, memory, imagination, emotions of both types, and the being๐Ÿ˜œ


Paradoxically, who inside me is “trying to understand” the ‘Who_Is_Who” decides the accuracy of the grasp๐Ÿ˜œ ( like the old joke: a native vaidya/doctor suggested “ this youth is mad. Only a marriage can restore his normal mental health “.... the paradox is, unless his madness is cured, no bride will marry him, and unless he gets a bride, his madness is incurable)


Brainily yours,

Why do humans need a doctor?

 Why do humans need a doctor?



It had been my “private” curiosity even since I was a kid, and I noticed that all other life forms in its free state RESPOND to any dis_ease by themselves! Their response includes the labour_pain and death. DIY technology ๐Ÿ˜œ( do it yourself).


It led to a search for oddity in humans!


I had to wait beyond youth and even middle age to get convinced that my_own inferences are valid. ( Even now, I am open to corrections with utmost humility+ gratitude. Meanwhile, I liked to share my observations with a few others. Maybe they might have something in it to use๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜“).



Mind, because of its ability to choose, making its own choices, had to interfere with the in_built response system and its own cellular intelligence embedded in our physiology ๐Ÿ™.

Most of the time, this cellular intelligence fights an enemy within( like Bharat has been busy with), instead of using its resources to defend from external threats.  Most of the CHRONIC ailments we have, are a result of our bad_choices of response to the needs of our body!( Cravings for junk food ๐Ÿ˜œ. Animals in free state eat responsibly, sensibly and thus remain Healthy, not just disease_free๐Ÿคฃ).


If I had no mind right from my birth out of a healthy womb, I may not need a doctor???( A very strange kind of thought ๐Ÿค”). I looked at a mental health home. Doctors aren't needed for inmates who didn't have any PRE-EXISTING chronic ailments๐Ÿ™. Their body is free_from their mind( that's why strong and healthy caretakers are employed!).


Next level: did humans ever detach the superfluous interference/meddling of their minds into the sensible functioning of their bodies??? All the roads led to the same destination ๐Ÿคฃ…. Desi spiritual giants, when they tamed their physiology to the highest humanly_possible levels, to a certain point where the body doesn't interfere with their “consciousness”( call it by any other name, spirit, atma, being, prana, chaitnya…etc).

Migration to a forest, after 60 is not like migrating to “USA”, or relocating closer to any multi-speciality hospital ๐Ÿ˜œ. Basic qualification itself is compatibility with all kinds of life forms dwelling in a forest, and a self-imposed undertaking “not to tamper with the ecology” of the forest. 


Which is easier to tame? Body, mind or ‘the’ breath?  ( Breath is the only 24/7 connectivity with nature outside of our body!). These 3 are entwined ๐Ÿ˜œ. 

It makes sense to ‘deal’ with the easiest one first๐Ÿ™.  Human intellect is the most sophisticated gadget for any human. The mind can refuse to see the truth, whereas the intellect can see only the truth๐Ÿ˜ญ.


A doctor can give symptomatic relief for any dis-ease. Cure/recovery etc is up to the body๐Ÿ™. Doctors say at times “the body is not accepting the medicine”.  The mind and its positive emotions might help to persuade the body to “please accept the medicine”. The rarity of such minds makes it seem like a miracle! 


I still don't know why the adage is “a sound mind in a sound body”??? When mind is the culprit to make each human body capable of uniquity of dis-eases๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿคฃ. Each fellow has a unique ailment, needing a doctor “good or lucky” at diagnosis ๐Ÿ™. 


My experience is, once the mind gets tamed, body takes care of its own medical expenses ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜œ… ( maybe, to tame a mind, i have to request my body to undergo a “circus” called “Yoga”… a misnomer ๐Ÿ˜œ. )



Heartily yours,

Why the blessings are in a disguise?

 Why the blessings are in a disguise?




Flu like symptoms ๐Ÿ™‚



I enjoyed "fever" as a very small kid( but didn't dare to spell it out aloud๐Ÿ˜ณ)


What I enjoyed was..... everything inside was communicating with me louder. ( And something more strange, my mind felt clearer EVERY time ๐Ÿค”)


I knew I was an odd guy in this ๐Ÿ™.  ( The best part was, i seemed_to_know that i am likely to get a fever tomorrow ๐Ÿ™. And seldom got a wrong guess ๐Ÿ˜‚. I didn't know how_else this forewarning is going to be of any other use, until i stepped on to spiritual practices ๐Ÿ˜“.  This 'accidental' ability enhanced the body_awareness like a 'bonus' ahead of time ๐Ÿ˜œ)


Disguised gift….body awareness ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ


Yet, i wasn't quite convinced about this saying “blessings” are always in disguise!



Then came a lesser used word “benediction”. Tangible item. 


Next level…..benedictions have an expiry date ๐Ÿ˜œ ( they can't be carried over beyond this life time๐Ÿ˜“๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ™)


Next level (of my grasp). Blessings add to my inner strength! Innate qualities get enhanced/enlarged/etc. 


Next level ( desi equivalent?...). The school taught in English medium only. The thinking_language oscillated between english and hydraabaadi_hindi only. A sheer consequence of what I “used” as a language most of the time! 

Desi equivalent, I hunted it down as a kid….asheervad & anugraham. ( Another problem arose๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ฐ “why do mallus seek only Anugraham only, instead of asheervad? ๐Ÿค””. Can't ask such “non_routine” questions to elders, as a kid. I had to “wait” till the answers decide to ‘bless me’ ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ)



Morals …. in verbal form, received, stored or recalled….seemed more_like a benediction๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ( hardly they get implemented!!!) 

Basics of “life”, when understood by the “intellect”( bypassing the mind, its emotions/logic, and then stored using “cloud technology”๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™… ), seemed to obviate even the need of ‘ethics’ wrapped as moral_science, i got in school, as a weekly period class of 40 minutes till my 7th. Dunno, why did the school stop moral_science as a subject after 7th? 


I felt thrilled to ‘view’ the basics of life ( even to the miniscule extent that I grasped) as a “blessing”.  It feels as though it is becoming a part of karma, which means “carry_forward” is pucca๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘… ( the bigger joke is…. contradicting proverbs, sayings, adages started becoming visible๐Ÿ˜œ. And desi_versions i noticed don't conflict mutually ๐Ÿ˜ณ. Awesome ๐Ÿ‘)


Simply yours,

Not my problem

 Not my problem
(popular mind-set of today, socially acceptable)

"The whole creation is my concern as well"
( a whole society thought like this, till the recent millennium, in Bharat.๐Ÿ˜Š!)
Whether an individual's 'concern' for such VAST level of inclusiveness made a difference or not.... for sure it helped that Individual to attain the highest-human-possibility ๐Ÿ™.  Logic cannot befriend inclusiveness of such a huge magnitude. Logic contends saying 'infinity' ain't my problem!

Symbolically, Sun the only star of our planetary system, and the only 'male' that gave birth to life in all forms known to us, is 'said to be donating' a thousand cows, as a gesture of gratitude, when a person is born,  who is likely to energize the sun, using sound forms, compatible with quantum laws๐Ÿ™. Verification of the validity of this symbolism is possible only after acquiring certain level of sensitivity, transcending the sensory levels of perception. (meanwhile, a dumb-data can suffice as a 'reference' using the ritual called Sandhya-Vandan, done thrice by that person, when Sun is viewed at its extremes at any location on earth)

Exploration during the recent centuries was mostly from west. People from east tried to explore only to accentuate their exploration deep within, called spirituality ๐Ÿ˜œ. There is a qualitative difference in both these quests. The commonality being, an attitude like "It is very much my concern"!!!

My experience
Somewhere in 2009 or so, during one of  my routine visits to the village of my spouse, she happened to suggest "shall we go for a walk?". Such 'walks' are not in our syllabus   ๐Ÿ˜œ
We walked. 
It was sunset. A ringing of bells at a small temple attracted her ears. She said "A murugan temple. Saandhya-Pooja time. Do you mind a look for a couple of minutes. We are already beside the temple" (She had to offer so-much of positive reasoning because she knew my present trend. Not keen about  visit to temples ๐Ÿ˜Š)
I nodded. We stood at the doors of the shrine. The priest was gesticulating with articulations in 'sync'. After the energised flame in the camphor was offered to the devotees present (only 2 of us, then), the priest stepped out for a fresh-breath-of-air (the sanctum is dark, zero ventilated, and the available O2/oxygen gets spent by burning lamps, incense, camphor etc----something logic defying about desi temples, especially when there are zero side effects on the 'health' of any priest ๐Ÿ˜œ
I gently inquired with the priest "Sir ๐Ÿ™....  TANTRA eh?" ,  His eyes widened. An unusual query!!!  He was familiar with only-not-my-problem posture of minds from his regular devotees there, who were only from the vicinities.  
He exclaimed :"yes! And not quite often we get to see this form of the deity being invoked with tantric chants!. I couldn't avail even a single day's 'off from work'/leave/holiday, simply because there is no substitute who can perform the rituals in tantric style. My home is far away" 

His curiosity was "how is this (temple's different style of propitiation) a concern for this guy?" (I could see the source of his_problem ๐Ÿ˜‚... curiosity/wonder.  And therefore I proceeded to explain whatever I had observed in his performance of pooja)
He was emotionally moved.  Almost like, his hard work, dedication, and skills received a crude and informal recognition from a total stranger, and yet meant a lot for him ๐Ÿ˜‚.  My wife was equally stupefied, since it was a 'first time' for me, to a temple which she used to visit from her kid age. 
That priest had to proceed towards the next set of rituals, and we had exceeded our 'budgeted' time allocated here. He wound up saying "Please visit on a Thai_poosam day, and I will ensure a place for you to stand and witness the special pooja, despite a crowd on that annual event." I thanked him, and left. (Today, 1st April, 2026 is a "Panguni Uthram" day, an annual event at all Murugan temples. Murugan is known as "Kaartikeya" in the North of Bharat. Tamils regard Murugan as 'their own God". )

My blogs are a glaring evidence of my mental problem, when I couldn't acquire the attitude "not my problem".  I tend to run_into_trouble often due to the absence of "mind my own-bijness" trait.

intrusively yours,
psn (1st April, 2026)

Merit versus qualification

 Merit versus qualification 



A very "private" joke๐Ÿ™



1969, my dad joked at home ( within only 'his' family ๐Ÿ™) : " a funny situation at office. I hold charge of 3 offices, nagpur, bilaspur and raipur, as Manager. But in my office of 25 staff, i am the least qualified๐Ÿ˜‚.  All the 3 peons are "PUC"(12th or +2). I am just a matric. The steno, an M.A. in English asks the meaning of a few sentences i dictate and she 'transcribes' on typing machine from her shorthand notes๐Ÿคฃ"



That day....i learnt a very precious lesson ๐Ÿ™

Merit has zero dependence on certification process.


"Nature" played a joke with me, during 1992 to 1998 and still_on. Spiritual processes Accord merit which are elusive to the 'notice' even, at sensory levels of perception ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ญ

( I feel stupid, when i indulge in an imagination, where i 'try' to convey my experience to close and trusting people around me ๐Ÿ™. No way, they can see it. )


Helplessly yours,

psn(30 March, 2026)


Post script:  not too sure, but i guess, paper qualification became a necessity, when our ability to recognise "merit"  got extinct ๐Ÿ˜ญ ( and now, fake certificates abound๐Ÿ˜œ)

Propeller and Universal joint

 Propeller & Universal joint


Awesome concept ๐Ÿ™


Modernity had infused an attitude of ‘mockery’ in a few minds, and they used the phrase “bullock cart people” to refer to the ancient Indians. The irony is this very phrase describes the ‘life’ of these fanciful people, and the joke is they are ignorant of ‘life’ itself mocking at them๐Ÿ˜œ


Yes, a bullock cart is pulled/pushed USING an external force applied to it(the bullocks are the force, the power, the fuel, the energy๐Ÿ™).  The cart moves the wheels, not the wheels itself moving the cart๐Ÿ™.

And a modern vehicle uses internalised power applied directly to the wheels and when the wheels are turned by a  propeller ( transmission of power) the vehicle moves!) 


When a bullock cart takes a turn, 

the wheel outer to the circular direction is ‘forced’ to rotate a larger distance ๐Ÿ˜œ. The wheel at the inner side compensates by rotating in a reverse direction to ‘OFFSET’ the difference in difference travelled due to turn. This reversal of inner wheel is solved by placing an Universal joint to the dhaft connecting the two wheels. A marvel of invention in engineering ๐Ÿ™


My idle mind( again a phrase used to refer to the idleness “an idle mind is a Devil's workshop!”๐Ÿ˜‚), just tried to “look” at a bullock cart and a car.  The most fundamental aspect occured in that idleness( actually a “still/silent mind” in the desi_sense, of a meditative mind, which “allows” the intellect  to ‘see’๐Ÿ™.

1.the car is driven by internal fuel. The cart gets pushed by external force (situation decides. If the bullock decides to turn left, the driver HAS to use a whip๐Ÿ˜œ).

2. The 2 wheels dont ‘cooperate’ with each other in a bullock cart, unless the direction is a ‘smooth_forward + straight line’. 


Today's human_life is SITUATION driven. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Then, i turned to look at the ‘available' data about the lifestyles of ancients!!๐Ÿ˜“. They channelised the life_force inside them, and that force decided the direction. The mind and the body, coordinated in synchronicity with the internalised fuel, its transmission chain, mechanism, design, purpose and even the ‘road_map’ ๐Ÿ˜œ. WHAO!!!

Forget the whims of the bullock(situation external) even the wheels( body and mind) OBLIGED to the superior intellect, instead of each wheel the body and the mind, yielding to its own eccentric cravings, whims etc, neither aligning with the situation, nor with the internal road_map built in ๐Ÿ™



I was very hesitant to share this ‘funny and comical’ looking thought all along๐Ÿ™

But 2 things internalised my ‘motive_force’( like the ‘e.m.f’ in physics ๐Ÿ˜‚). My personal experience with the tools(ancient), for sophisticating the vehicle Equipped with body and mind….and the fact that i am aged enough to know that my time is up now and it makes sense to motivate a rare few who can afford to use their own sense of Discrimination to decide which of the 2 is worth working upon towards_sophistication???( The precious gadget called human body and mind, with its H.I./human intellect? Or, the poorly fabricated gadgets without its life, using A.I….???). The experience of ‘life’ gets decided accordingly ๐Ÿ™. External gadgets are excellent slaves, but devilish as our_Masters๐Ÿ™. Choice is ours! 


A propeller, yours,

psn(29 March, 2026)


Post script:

This after_thought is a tribute to my dear kid_age friend, who happens to be a renowned Surgeon, often assisting his spouse, a gynaecologist ๐Ÿ™. He asked me a question (which can occur ONLY to a beautiful mind๐Ÿ˜œ). He asked “why does the baby want to come out?”( It took me an hour plus, to supply ‘scientifically' oriented reasons for a spiritual phenomenon ๐Ÿ™)

He summed up “oh! That's the way the soul( spirit/atma/etc) manifests!!” I thanked him for his feedback/response. Today, i was reminded of his question ๐Ÿ™.  Internalised energy power, deciding to ‘move’ the body and its accessories out of the womb ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ.

Commercial advantage of cunning laws

 Commercial advantage of cunning laws



Nature is innocent, but not an idiot. Cosmic balance tilts the pans when enough-is-enough.



Human laws are “subject to eccentricities of a human mind”.


Live_in relationship is accorded a recognition by feigning innocence in a request to “please register it”( courts are getting a new “source” of fuel for adjournment “ ๐Ÿ˜œ).


Adjournment is a ‘legalised’ way for fund_flow_management.

Exampull:  a contractor submitted a tender for procurement of ‘fly ash’ from thermal power plant owned by govt. This contractor was advised by a vakil (friendly with judges of courts) :”don't block your hard cash. Invest just ½ of the earnest money as a Fixed_deposit in a bank , lock-in period of 7 years. Bank will seek ‘legal advice’ for a bank-guarantee in lieu of EMD(earnest money deposit). Vakil will certify “adjournment is guaranteed for 7 years”. Bank is happy ๐Ÿ˜Š. EMD is 100% secure with an investment of 50%, beCause, 7 years later it doubles!


Exampull-2 : famous 2-G scam. The auction got cancelled ( by supreme court). Same supreme court was CONSTRAINED to let the perpetrators to go scot-free๐Ÿ˜œ. Exonerated officially, legally, because they followed the rules( framed by themselves ๐Ÿ˜œ)


Union guys(banks) “hey! If adjournment is a clever way of fund_flow management, why not delay even_routine_wage_negotiations like ‘adjournments’? Our pockets get filled in private๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘


Bank management, by now, is familiar with the potency of ADJOURNMENT in courts๐Ÿ˜œ. A case of 2016 yields treble its actual_outflow, if withheld for ten years atleast. Adjournment zindabad๐Ÿ‘. The workmen have given a proof of their consistency in stupidity, by electing ONLY handpicked corrupt netas of their union๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™. Pay peanuts to legal experts to frame vague rules and regulations under a strong agreement ( win win situation for survival of corrupt netas and greedy management ๐Ÿ˜œ). 


Nature gifted humans with “intellect “. Conditions apply, for ‘using’ intellect ๐Ÿ˜ญ.

I even tried a “silly koschan/question “ in a blog “when does the intellect function?”. Readers are in their comfort zone while reading such basic_to_life reminders ๐Ÿ™

( I seek solace in bothering about my_intellect_only๐Ÿ˜œ)



Gullibly yours,

Love and Trust

 Love & Trust.


If my previous blog, ( https://selfseekers.blogspot.com/2026/03/litmus-test-of-love.html ) does not appeal, please do not bother to waste your time reading this ๐Ÿ™



I look at Love & Trust as 2 sides of the same coin ๐Ÿ˜œ



Obviously, the same litmus test ought to work for trust as well ๐Ÿ‘ ( otherwise, my idea falls apart ๐Ÿ˜“. I should accept my flaw).

True trust never seeks a satiation”



( When I started ‘looking' like an oldie, the social norms applicable to an oldie, from youngsters, started getting operational ๐Ÿ˜œ. Not that, there was a likelyhood of any Damn experience out of it๐Ÿ˜œ. Just a show bijness, to go_through a stupid ritual. Sans symbolism, every action connected with desi tradition is reduced to a ‘ritual’ only. No experience out of it ๐Ÿ™)


Anyway, youngsters started seeking ‘blessings', while formally inviting me to their wedding.

I try to “add” some value ( to my_best only๐Ÿ™).

I tell them “see, any wedded life is bound to have ‘slight’ quarrels once in a while. But if it gets a bit serious and you get_a_doubt like ‘does he/she love me like before’, you might feel confused. Instead you ask YOURSELF ‘ is he/she still trustworthy?’ . If the answer within is a big ‘Yes’, the …. be rest assured your quarrel is a passing phase. Love is difficult to measure, but trust is damn easy… same coin, 2 sides”

No youngster disagreed till date๐Ÿ˜“



Trustingly yours,

psn(24 March, 2026)



Litmus test of Love

 Actually, my idea is to simplify the confusion that confounds youngsters when 'something' very strange overpowers their 'normalcy' of psyche ๐Ÿคฃ

No harm in trying out my idea, even if am wrong, even if my idea is flawed. With little patience, a reader can realise by himself that all I did was to demystify the traditional litmus test a_bit.  


Thirst hangs on till it gets satiated ( embedded software in the human machine ๐Ÿ™)

Yes, thirst is normally satiated by gulping water๐Ÿ™ But think of a situation where, a person feeling very thirsty walking under Sun in a desert, is somehow teleported to the inside of a huge freezer machine, which is at Minus 20 degrees centigrade? The body does a reassessment of the Ratio of the Level of its Hydration-needs inside that freezer and declares "Buddy, I ain't no longer any thirsty๐Ÿ‘...  Forget about drinking watchar/water" (a far fetched imagination, over_exaggeration to "sell" the idea that "satiation" is exclusive of any object(here, water) ๐Ÿ™


Let's try to demystify "UNCONDITIONAL love" as a standard Yardstick/parameter for TRUE love.


Rewrite it as "true love NEVER seeks a satiation"  Does it not sync with satiation as a "conditional love?"

Satiation can be 'as simple as' a psychological or emotional satiation ( satisfaction). Still, this satiation is a condition.

A love that doesn't seek any kind of satiation, is far unlikely to die down. It doesn't get extinguished ( for want of any fuel). It simply responds to the situation, if okay. It doesn't FLARE up as a violent REACTION to any excessive fuel from the situation ๐Ÿคฃ


Criticism is welcome ๐Ÿ™

But please beware of disclosing any test_results, if a reader decides to use this litmus test. Your love is your private "affair". I have no bijness to know about it ๐Ÿ™


Lovingly yours,

Innocence versus ignorance

 Innocence versus ignorance 


They are not at all the same.

And….. I am not rich_enough in wisdom to extol the distinction comprehensively enough.๐Ÿ˜ข ( I said ‘extol’ because we say “ignorance is bliss”๐Ÿ˜ฐ. Somehow, I couldn't reconcile with remaining ignorant ๐Ÿ™)



Easy on brain, wala difference:

I was a kid 7 decades ago. I was both ignorant & innocent. 

Other kids around me, at neighbourhood, relatives, school…… why even in a train journey if ……. lasting more than an hour, become ‘friends’ with me.



The joke is, only about 2% of my kid age friends are “still  my-friends”๐Ÿ˜ฐ. ( It doesn't matter to me, if ‘i am a friend to few more others!’ that's their choice. My_friends treat me likewise, and I am happy with that๐Ÿ‘)



I thought over it.

Despite ignorance, innocence begets friendship. It's like a water-tap without any filter gadget fixed at its mouth ๐Ÿ˜ณ 


As I aged, my preferences, choices, NARROWED (filter became OPERATIONAL ๐Ÿ˜œ).  My greed, unrealistic desires, and exclusivity ( as an opposite of ‘inclusiveness’)  played mischief by allowing a ‘leak’ in my filters and I paid its price when my tiny wisdom BECAME affordable to do away with such unfiltered friends)



Ignorance….

gets dispelled at various levels ๐Ÿ™

The examples that I can think of, ๐Ÿ™ are

1) sensory levels ( I don't touch a live wire after getting a mild shock. I don't sip a drink while the steam is still seen—got my lips burnt due to ignorance ๐Ÿ˜œ)

2)brain as a processor ( when I didn't like a teacher who loads me with more homework, my elders at home like that_teacher MORE!๐Ÿ˜ณ. I was ignorant of this_statistical concept! INVERSELY proportional)

3)mind as an emotional fool ( not often, that an elder offers a ‘chocolate’ out of pure_love. My elders even warned me “don't eat anything from a stranger”. Often, the boss offers a liberal praise, when he looks at me as an unwitting idiot to fall for his ‘friendliness’, while planning to exploit my potential for unpaid/unrewarded/non-compensated ADDITIONAL load of work )

4)spirit/soul/atma ( a bit fuzzy thing to substantiate ‘logically’.  My sister, 3 years younger than me, was DISCOVERED to be my_protector since her 2 years of age! No logical explanation for this! Using ‘negation/neti_neti, เคจ เค‡เคคी –เคจ เค‡เคคी…. soulmate is the only option left out๐Ÿ˜ข। when she was an adult, and throughout later, her ‘being’ continued to be my protector๐Ÿ˜‚. Of course, I gained just_enough spiritual experience to explore to her, about her strange tie-up with me. I could NEVER reciprocate her shielding unto me๐Ÿ™. I was a ‘normal' brother only!)  A rather difficult_to_get type of example . Spirit itself is EVASIVE ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ฐ. How to quote and substantiate an example about its ignorance_removal???)



Innocence:

No examples are needed๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™


Terse concepts are in place ๐Ÿ™ 

Absence of negative emotions ๐Ÿ™

( Evidence: Show me a fraction of 1 negative emotion, in a new born baby, even till it gets a month old? That baby is innocent. Unfortunately ignorant of its own innocence and unaware of own self)



I became aware of the merits/demerits of the visible qualities of people around with age and experience ๐Ÿ™. Compatibility issues decided the level of friendship. Ignorance of kid_age was without filters(fetters), and so, intolerance/resistance was almost non_functional, though latent๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ


About kid age school mates, I need to keep aside my eccentricities acquired beyond teenage, if I am to have any hope of refreshing, for_a_while, the kid_age friendship from the other ๐Ÿ™. That's my responseAbility๐Ÿ™. Not quite easy ๐Ÿ˜œ. But worthwhile ๐Ÿ‘.



Knowingly yours,

sensitivity as a consequence

sensitivity as a consequence

We need sensitivity, for survival as a human being.

If my one ear is less sensitive, I become a partially-deaf .

Certain sensitivities cannot be deepened without certain tools needed to deepen them!(desi spirituality is full of such tools. The 'problem' arose, when the ancients decided to make a few tools as a part of our life style.  The most acute (but not chronic) problem is with a scripture called "Manusmriti".  Heavily criticized, especially for the stringent rules prescribed for females ๐Ÿ˜œ. What we miss to notice is... even he, as a king , never IMPOSED his own book manusmriti on his_own_subjects.๐Ÿ™.  Anyway, a political mind won't like to agree with this !

For sceptics : in 1960's neurosurgeons in west abstain from drinking tea/coffee, a week ahead of a brain surgery. Mild nervous stimulants cause 'shaky hands' at the surgery of nerves viewed through a 3-piece microscope ๐Ÿ˜œ(naked eyes can't see the nerves largely enough to stitch the nerves without blocking the pipes.).  Sensitivity of a shakiness in the hands of a genuine neurosurgeon is the historic evidence. today, the surgeon can boast of his insensitivity, because robots can stitch nerves without a shaky hand ๐Ÿ˜œ

One example that I can think of is from the story about a Namboothiri in keralam retold to me by my dad (he had the means to relate it with the specific household of that exceptionally 'sensitive' Namboothiri of that household called a "Mana".
Banana tree has rings of layers in its stem, and extends right up to the end of fruit.
While the stem has layers that can be easily seen(tangible), the rings in the fruit is a bit inconspicuous (maybe a very powerful microscope can make it better tangible). Nutrients get deposited parallel to the layers of rings, from the water that climbs up by capillary-action.  Well, we get tears, due to the same capillary action, so...  don't tell me "I dunno, what a capillary action is"...  
This Namboodiri (in my story) had an extra sensitivity in his taste buds ๐Ÿ˜ฒ   
There is(at least 'was') a variety of Nendra_BANANA, in Keralam which was known by its uniquity. It ripens when watered for 100 days (nooru nana nendra---mallu name).
this mallu (Namboothiri) could taste a bit of Transverse section/T.S. of the ripe banana and say "It was not watered on the 57th and the 89th day!" Sounds exaggerated???   Even I don't believe it blindly.

The concept I wanted to convey (right or wrong๐Ÿ™)
Sensitivity can be deepened, also as a consequence of a certain 'lifestyle'
Evidence? The bulk of traditions in Hinduism, which stood well until 500 years ago, doesn't satisfy common logic ๐Ÿ˜œ One can 'live' comfortably, safely and blissfully ignorant of its purposes even without following them. Eat your meals without the stupid-looking parishechanam (circling of plate, spilling drops of water, mumbling some chants, swallowing solo-grains...... etc), and still the food digests PERFECTLY okay๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ™...  if we don't know the difference there is none!

Any Namboothiri on an average was better sensitive than other non-vegetarians. He can 'relish' a dish called "Olan" (which is just slices of ash gourd, cooked miserly, with 'carefully' measured dose of salt, and a sprinkle of raw cocoanut oil when cooled). Entire keralam treats this item as a 'must' in any feast. States situated to the north of keralam doesn't relish this dish.  Lack of sensitivity might be the only culprit, after ruling out all 'logical' possible reasons.  As we travel north, the dishes 'NEED'  to become spicy, more and more progressively, if it has to please a diner ๐Ÿ˜œ.  (typically, desert dwellers prefer to eat food that is tasty for smell, rather than the taste buds.  Masala of middle east is predominantly more fragrant in its spices.  A glaring exampull of sensitivity or the lack of it, as a consequence of eating styles.....)

How to become sensitive enough to feel subtle things that the spiritual guys speak about? 
Well, be prepared to undertake intensely, the most crazy-looking practices a routine๐Ÿ˜œ
Alternatively, find consolation in 'knowing' the theory part of these subtle things from a bookish gnawLedge, or a well read lecturer who specialised in reading scriptures only.  Anyway, spiritual scriptures are of no practical use, except as a road-map, or a milestone. ๐Ÿ™

Consequentially yours,

Scientific greetings

 Scientific greetings


๐Ÿ˜‚


When I realised the power of thoughts (which are guided only by our emotional ‘disposition’), I ‘started’ looking a bit deeper at the greetings as a tool to persuade a positive thought.


Telugu speaking people seem to have retained the ‘goodness’ of a ‘seed’ thought, embedded in the greetings, which has the potential to place the very roots of our thoughts into positivity ๐Ÿ˜œ


The origin of the greetings is in Sanskrit. Sanskrit, being in CONFORMITY with quantum laws in physics, has the potential to ‘actualise’ ๐Ÿ™


In Telugu, one form of greetings still in vogue is “ festival Shubha AAKAANKSHALU”.  A template where the name of the festival is prefixed to the syntax “shubh aakaankshaloo”.



Shubh means auspicious.

Aakaansha means desire. 


Once, the very thought process is on a track of positivity, such a person becomes synchronous with the cosmos.  Anything that is in synchronicity with the cosmos is a part of it too . ( The 4 MahaVakyas, declaratory truths, are the structured process of getting into this synchronicity ๐Ÿ™. The 4th one is a milestone reassuring a person that,  once he experiences this truth, he has reached the highest human POSSIBILITY ๐Ÿ™)



A simple and routine greeting, being used as a mega powerful ‘tool’ to reach the highest spiritual attainment, indeed has invoked a deep Reverence towards the people who devised it .



( How intensely can I use this tool each time, is all that matters now ๐Ÿ˜œ… 

The scientific way of it is, if lab_conditions are fulfilled, boom ๐Ÿ’ฅ…..and I am liberated ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜œ)



With best wishes for

Shubh aakaanksha always,

Yours psn(21 March 2026)

My defective deflection

 My defective deflection


One of the meanings of “deflection”, in Cambridge dictionary is “the act of attacking or blaming another person rather than accepting criticism or blame for your own actions”


My defect is, I deflect from this definition in another”sense” of the word ๐Ÿ˜œ “ a change of direction after hitting somebody/something”


“ Nobody told me this” 

“I was never taught this”

“How am I supposed to know? (Whatever)”


The most powerful missile to me, was

“Am I God, to know everything?” ( and I deflected away, allowing this missile to retain its trajectory ๐Ÿ™. Reason: I was hit by another missile “ aham brahma asmi” meaning ‘i am brahrma” ๐Ÿ˜œ. Only one of these can be true!๐Ÿ˜ข



I looked at what I knew ๐Ÿ˜ž

A baby keeps putting anything it picks into its own mouth! The “why” bothered me ๐Ÿ™. Nobody around had the ‘time’ to think of such stupid-questions. So, my ignorance is my problem alone ๐Ÿ˜ญ. I realised, I need to subrogated( step into the shoes) of a baby to understand why it keeps putting things/objects into its mouth. But a baby is yet_to_use a shoe!!! ๐Ÿค”. Symbolism became a tool to solve this riddle. When I solved this “why” about the baby, I experienced the concept of symbolism (in the word ‘subrogate’), I experienced the mindless+instinctive state of a baby who used pristine+nascent intellect, and the brain which processed a non_verbal thought of a past experience of first imposed_activity ๐Ÿ‘ ….  Perplexed? ๐Ÿคฃ. Not my problem, figure it out yourself ๐Ÿ™


Imperceptibility can be due to insensitivity ( or the lack of it) at both levels ๐Ÿ™. Sense organs level & at extra_sensory levels. Bulk of present day minds don't ‘bother’ about the potential in us for extra_sensory levels ( a proof which is a ‘bit’ relatable EVEN for today's mind is = a naadi_vaidya( that system of medicine, where the medical practitioner senses the subtle energy channels in his patients, naadi channels, called ida, pingala, and sushumna), has this sensitivity of extra_sensory levels, via the touch_sense๐Ÿ˜œ. In the desi tradition this extrasensitivity was called ‘indriya_atheeth_gyan’ a sanskrit word ๐Ÿ™, adapted by Hindi atleast ๐Ÿ˜ž)



Ancients meant the “epic” stories like Mahabharat & Ramayana as a litmus test also( apart from multi_uses of far more purposes ๐Ÿ™), to find out my_own levels of sensitivity ( sense organs and extra_sensory, both) when I muster enough patience to revisit these epics again and again, AFRESH each time ๐Ÿ™. A kid, gets ‘new’ questions after puberty like “how beautiful it might have been for Rama & Sita to have a ‘privacy’ in the wide open (forest), for romanticism??๐Ÿค””. He now ‘looks’ for its subtle references in the same Valmiki Ramayana, where the author dropped a very IMPERCEPTIBLE mention, even before the event happened ๐Ÿ˜œ and, dat’s/that's ‘his’ perception levels,๐Ÿ™ Visualising a future event like “sita silenced the blabber of Rama with her lips!๐Ÿ™”( The kid is insulated from paying attention to it till he is mature enough to ‘know’ it with responseAbility ๐Ÿ™



To wind up,

My defect ( “I am responseAble/responsible, for my_ignorance”) opened up to newer dimensions of ‘life’ when someone guided me into spiritual “tools” ๐Ÿ™. To that extent, I didn't have to ‘reinvent the wheels’ ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™.


My blogs inherit my_defects ๐Ÿ™ (un-intelligible at few places ๐Ÿ˜ฅ), but then, it serves a purpose. It gets itself deflected away from the minds, who are addicted to “ignorance is not my problem”๐Ÿ‘. I try to keep myself confined to only experienced_narratives, not CopyPaste๐Ÿ™. ( Revisit to my earlier blogs is a disclaimer: entirely at readers’ own risk and resposeAbilities๐Ÿ™)


Deflectively yours,

senseAbility

 senseAbility 



I think, I can use simplicity ๐Ÿ™ 



Sensitivity is a potential ( aged fellows lose the touch, hearing, or smell sensitivity ๐Ÿ˜ฅ. Can't invoke)


'sensible' is sense_ability ( sensibility) tapping & using the latent potential ๐Ÿ™ 


At subtler levels, the tools & use of the senseAbility after tapping the potential is what_used_to_be known as a sensible person ( today the connotation has shifted to being clever, cunning, conniving, etc๐Ÿ˜ฅ.  It is sensible to remain 'innocent'-----free of negative emotions, not as an ignorant idiot susceptible to being duped/fooled/cheated).



Humans have a choice to deepen our sensitivity as much as we 'like' ( 4 declaratory truths/MahaVakyas, are the evidence)



Sensibly yours,

Flexibility and resistance

 Flexibility and resistance

Once, I confronted a serious inconsistency within me, about the ancients. ๐Ÿ˜ณ
I knew, people until 300 years ago in Bharat had a healthy life style. A healthy 'mind' basically ๐Ÿ™
A crucial ingredient was the thought contents of their minds.
Non-commercial thoughts. (must be around 95% or more of non commercial thoughts)
As a contrast, the thought-content in today's--me, can be easily traced to some kind of commercial value, and 98% of my thoughts are such! 
Why should it matter? Well, we decided to 'buy' everything, like water, air, sand, instead of using it conservatively, according to our needs. Even today, other life forms in free state don't pay for their food. We earn to pay for food. It matters!

The inconsistency now (of course, only my-problem, not of others!๐Ÿ˜’)
Why did the ancients try to use "Gold" (top most representative of wealth) as a name for their kids???? 
They were not 'commercial-minded'. Then why desi names 'Sona', 'Swarna', 'Thangam', etc???
My problem, so it is my head-ache. I kept it to keep aching in me till the inconsistency got re-solved.

It dawned suddenly one day!
Gold, the metal..;  Its innate qualities.   Desi style of using 'symbolism' at the drop of a hat ๐Ÿ˜œ
Symbolism serves as a functional example, not just as a name-sake.
I referred to my memory of 7th class. 
Gold is malleable + ductile. (I wish, I had paid more attention to these 2 qualities in gold!๐Ÿ˜ญ). 

Damn! ๐Ÿ˜“(me, that 'damn', not gold ๐Ÿ˜œ ....๐Ÿ™) Why didn't I think of it? 

They were 'wishing' for utmost flexibility in the kid, they decided to call as "Sona/Swarna/bangaroo/thangam/etc".   It was not about 'price' of gold๐Ÿ˜“

The tragedy is, I had already 'looked' at the aspect of 'flexibility' in humans, and still I missed the brilliance of ancients in 'symbolising' this adorable quality in  highly-evolved people ๐Ÿ™
Proof of my stupidity : I kept on asking young techies an irritating koschan/question like: "What do you recruiters look for exactly in the candidate during the 4th round of personal interview for a 'plum' job???   
(I add 2 teasers, 
1) See, unless you know WHAT you are looking for, and  how can you sight it in the candidate?
2) a hint...   The same thing is what a bride/groom looks for in the other, and fails to sight it, leading to increasing number of divorce rates today, more among 'logical-wizards' called 'techies'๐Ÿ˜œ

And, tragically, I failed to 'see' that the ancients had already known too-well this 'quality' and also, to sight it instantly  ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™( Super techies, in human-intelligence)

I will wind up my blabber now!
All the gadgets we use, need resistance, to be_of_use for us. (a chair needs to resist our weight, otherwise, our bottom faces a crash onto the floor if chair breaks๐Ÿ˜‚)
Humans, need absence of resistance, to be of any use to others at least! (that was my problem ๐Ÿ˜ญ. "absence" was the word I used to 'catalogue' in my memory. and "DLL" developed a 'bug' in the hard-disk, my memory.  DynamicLink didn't work in my Library of my-mind)
Absence of resistance is flexibility.   
If I am Gold (instead of the 'idiot' that I am right now!), heat me,  beat me, bend me, stretch me to the limits, do every thing to me, that we do to Gold, I keep shining more, serving more. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™
(Lucky that my parents didn't think of naming me as 'Gold' ๐Ÿ˜œ.  Very kind of them. I can resist being good, being useful, being loved, being liked. etc ๐Ÿ˜“)
The bigger tragedy is, to some extent, I even-had consciously dropped my resistance, when I attempted to reach towards my own spirit, using sophisticated tools bequeathed by ancients, and still failed to use my sense of discrimination to understand the deeper symbolism of ancients when they used the word "gold" for nomenclature of their kids!

flexibly yours,
psn (17th March, 2026)

Alertness, Awareness and Attentiveness

 Alertness, Awareness and Attentiveness


Well, it is like this : if I don't know the difference, there is no difference for_me๐Ÿ˜„
As simple as that ๐Ÿ‘( The side-effects of ignorance, heavily contribute to my 'karma')

A deer is 'alert' enough to know, to sense, that a tiger which is within the range of pouncing upon the deer, is not really hungry right now๐Ÿ™, and therefore there is no need to 'run for its life'.
A lazy soldier might drop his level of alertness, while inside the sleeping place, due to lack_of_awareness that a spy could have infiltrated into the tent where off-duty soldiers take rest/sleep to recoup their stamina. 
Attentiveness if sharp enough, helps a 'sharpshooter' to get the victims head shot, at the first chance when the victim holds his head still_for_2_seconds ๐Ÿ™( sharp shooters are professionally trained assassins, with expertise to aim sharp from a great distance using telescopic sight on rifles.  They are capable of single-pointed attention, sharp-focus, without any external motivation from an adverse situation on the situation outside, where they lie-down with infinite patience for their victim !)

A baby is razor alert. But it can't remain attentive beyond a few seconds. Awareness is too nascent yet to call it as one.

Our minds tend to compensate for lack of any or even all of these three, by substituting it with a 'defensiveness' which, eventually becomes a huge hurdle in our lives,  over a period of time, turning into a 'default' habit ๐Ÿ˜œ  Bulk of our negativity is owing to this 'defensiveness, at the drop of a hat' which gets hardened over a period of time. The negativity has a better name "Resistance" (or intolerance).  The tragedy is, kids develop this resistance/intolerance much earlier+faster than the kids of past centuries.  ๐Ÿ˜ญ. Hardened resistance is brittle enough to cause serious psychosomatic disorders, if the situation hammers it hard enough to break it apart. 

A resistance to do something 'new', something extra, is a very common and easily identifiable example. 
example:Two people on  the road collide with their vehicles. Even with least harmful ones like bicycles.  "You are at fault ๐Ÿ˜ก" (most common and 'default' reaction we see from both of them!). Only an alert, attentive and aware person among the 2 will manage to 'use' the common sense to 'respond' to the situation.  A response is a choice. A reaction is out of negativity. Subtle difference.

When 
resistance is a 'default' functionality of a mind, which has indulged into excessive abuse of the 'design' of mother nature, the function of defensiveness, meant for a restricted' and limited use, for the purpose of PRESERVATION of species๐Ÿ™(Remember, the deer is  defensive only_when_needed, and doesn't run away from a Tiger, which is not hungry. The alertness and awareness is enough to 'sense' if the tiger is hungry or not right now!.  Ironically we don't know the difference experientially between hungry and an empty stomach in us and therefore tend to stuff needless edible junk,  the moment stomach feels empty ๐Ÿ˜†, as a 'defensive-reaction' or insurance against non-existent starvation. Karma punishes us with consequences of indigestion ๐Ÿ™)


The tragedy is, refusal to use these 3 (alertness, awareness and attentiveness) for a long duration, ends up losing the 'functionality' of the 'sense of discrimination' which is available only to the human species ๐Ÿ™ ( A tragedy happened with me, at a spiritual program in 1992. I alone burst into a loud laughter at the remark by the teacher : "Well, if you don't know the difference, there is no-difference". This was his response to the absence of a 'correct answer' from 40 participants, to whom he posed a very simple, basic and fundamental question : "What is the fundamental difference between humans and other species?"....  I could easily guess the answer which he was 'looking' for, when he stressed upon the words "fundamental difference" ๐Ÿ™. But i decided to keep shut, being curious to know, how aware my co-participants are.  My laughter attracted a 'look' in the faces of participants around which translated as "Fool, what is there to laugh in it ?๐Ÿ˜ก"...   I at once 'sobered' and became stern-faced! The teacher is the 'boss' not me๐Ÿ™. Let him decide to explain or ignore the absence of sense-of-discrimination in us. )

Somehow, I had a irreparable defect in me .  I invoke my defensiveness only as a last resort in any situation. I respond. This defect had perhaps led to my decision to quit prematurely from my salary-oriented routine called a 'job'. I never had to ever regret this decision. On the other hand I felt gratitude to "Maya Madam" who planted a thought in me to quit. By nature, I never quit from a situation where I sense a potential in me to respond๐Ÿ™. Mother earth 'responds' every time it rains ๐Ÿ˜”. I am made of the material borrowed from earth. so, not a wrong thing to sync with the earthly traits, till I dwell in this body ๐Ÿ™. 

In retrospect, I tend to deduce that the observation of my senior participants during 1992 in my first spiritual program, that my pace of progress was a bit unprecedented and fast, was owing to the inadvertent residue in me, of these 3 things, alertness, awareness and attentiveness. My mind keeps losing its battle to push down the levels of these 3 in me, often. More so, after I started practicing the spiritual tools prescribed during the 4 years from 1992.  I enjoyed practicing them at frenzy levels!

simply yours,

Problem with "Satyameva Jayate"

 Problem with “satyameva Jayate”

๐Ÿ˜‚


It's a problem only if I take it seriously ๐Ÿฅบ

My kid age was not any different from others, as far as ignorance was concerned ๐Ÿ™ ( that…..was ‘the’ truth!๐Ÿ˜“. Ignorance is susceptible)


The problem now ๐Ÿ‘

The kid in me asked myself things like

 “well, if truth is going to win ANYWAYS, why break my head over it?”

“Why are dishonest ones having a ‘good time’ most of the times?”( What happened to the’ incharge’( whichever God ji)of ‘satyameva jayate’?”???

“All the government offices display this logo ‘satyameva jayate' so prominently, especially courts, but ironically, that's exactly where truth is desecrated oftener! ๐Ÿ˜ฐ. Why?”


A bit grown up, and I tried a bit smartness “okay….if great men of Vedic times said it, it must be good ๐Ÿ‘.   Probably they didn't use indelible ink to the fine print “conditions apply” ๐Ÿ˜‚. “


Which “truth” were they referring to?( An example of my mind ‘manufacturing’ a new problem, when fatigued by failure to solve a natural one๐Ÿ˜œ)


Some more years passed.

It dawned on me that “only an evolved intellect can devise the functionality of eternal concepts ๐Ÿ™”. ( Like, capillary action is already used by nature, ignoring human intellect ๐Ÿ™…. In a coconut tree, water reaches 30 ft high to its leaves. In a human, eyes can “shed tears” invoking capillary action as a response to a tiny dust, or the emotional outburst of that fellow ๐Ÿ‘.  A rare few "intellectuals" devised this functional form of capillary action… water climbs by itself, to the top of a fort, 900 steps higher to via mudpipes, designed to ‘abide’ by the ‘truth’ in the concept called Capillary action ๐Ÿ™.  Non-meritorious but qualified engineers broke those pipes assuming that they are intelligent. They spoiled even  the chances of future intelligent ones to unravel the design ๐Ÿ˜ญ)



A joke about situational_relevance of truth.

A disciple decided to strictly implement the truth told by his guru “Everything is Maya”( illusions).

An elephant came charging at this disciple and he decided to “use” this bare_truth( everything is Maya) and didn't bother to move. The mahout seated on the elephant was shouting “run away…. This elephant is mad right now!”. But the disciple is experimenting with”maya” now๐Ÿ‘. Litmus test of Maya!.   He got bruised badly. Limping, he carried his doubt to his Guru”but you said everything is Maya?”

Guru “within the same Maya, did not the MAHOUT warn you to run away??” 

๐Ÿ˜‚

Adaptation of concepts for a functionality needs a thorough grasp of the concept(bare law, bare act) ๐Ÿ™


Satyamev Jayate ๐Ÿ™. Contextual truth keeps winning till the cosmic truth says “your time is up now๐Ÿ‘” 

Micro level of contextual truth is what we connive to pamper our desires, greedy, laziness, carelessness etc till the bubble bursts๐Ÿ™

Macro level of contextual truth is the 4 cycles of time, satYug, tretaYug, dwaparaYug and right now the kaliYug. The ‘truth' related to the ‘nature’ of these yugas keeps winning till the cycle peaks. Then, a total dissolution or pra_laya. 



A choice is, abide by the ‘eternal’ truth right now, and enjoy witnessing the contextual & functional truth winning right now, by becoming ‘free’ from its stickiness, adhesive ( like a Lotus in slush), as a Jeevan mukta/living_enlightened or…… deny oneself the awareness about the comprehensive meaning and grasp of the sutra/concept “satyameva Jayate” and suffer it ๐Ÿ™


Illusions is the “truth” about illusions. It “prevails” is the validity of the concept. ( Can we be aware that we are the_dreamer “while still inside the dream?” ๐Ÿ™. The functional truth is, during a dream, my sense of Discrimination is Unavailable ๐Ÿ™). 


The truth of the “situation” is this blog will struggle to find any deeper appeal than any entertainment value ( inadvertently crept in ) in it. Truth wins, not my expectations from this blog ๐Ÿ™



Truthfully yours,

Reviving the dead

 Reviving the dead


Apologies ๐Ÿ™

I am not trying to explain the ‘technology’ here.


It's only ‘about’ the technology ๐Ÿ˜œ


A half-baked idiot like me needs a ‘tool’ to use the technology ๐Ÿ˜‚

Evolved spiritual giants just deploy their own pranic energy to attract the ‘prana’ that accidentally slipped out of the body, and doesn't know how_to_get_back into it ๐Ÿ˜“


I have only one weak justification for even talking “about” this technology ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ข. Not the technique itself! ( Somehow, a great teacher decided to impart a tool, for revival, probably because he thought that I am the best among ‘available' ones around, and not that I ‘deserved’ to be initiated into it ๐Ÿ™)

Weak, because I never had to ‘use’ it ๐Ÿ˜œ. I was entrusted with the responseAbility/responsibility to revive a person who slips out ‘really’ and finds re_entry difficult, during a guided meditation called “death” ๐Ÿ˜‚.  Every care is taken to ensure that a participant gets only a peek_look at “how it feels to be dead” ( a safe sample of ‘death experience’ ๐Ÿ™). The tool was as a matter of ‘abundant caution’. I kept it in readiness for some 7 years, twice a week, when peepals/people used the meditative practices ๐Ÿ™. 

Once, I blundered. ๐Ÿ˜ญ. Fortunately, the participants on that day never needed any revival. The blunder happened when I ‘diluted’ the prescription I was given, which was “I should stay guard, WATCHING”. 

My mistake: I sat down and closed my eyes. I slipped out ๐Ÿ˜“. Very luckily, re_entry worked well. That day, I realised the worth of a Master's Words of ‘instructions’. 

There were days when nobody came. I got an opporChutney to undergo the meditation ‘myself’ on such days๐Ÿ˜œ. Silver lining.


This experience helped me to understand the subtleties of the thing called ‘prana/life's, which is missed in the death_certificate by a doctor who can certify only Clinical death, not praanic_death. ( By product is, the movement of life_force, pranic energy within comes into our awareness ๐Ÿ™. The “chaitanya” in a consecrated idol, touches our awareness through the awareness of own pranic energy! A gadget like multimeter can sense presence of electric current in a plug point, using its own tiny battery, isn't it??? A symbolic example. Energies even within me are different, ‘broadly classified’ in 5 major types๐Ÿ™. A janeuDhaariPappu is ‘supposed' to invoke these 5, before he eats a staple_meal๐Ÿ˜œ. Today, even the priest who teaches it is oblivious of its experience ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ. Otherwise, with experience in himself, his own pranic energy is sufficient to motivate a kid to do the practice {“parishechana”.... The Procedure: It involves three main steps: Aabhojanam (before eating), Pranahuti (offering to life-forces), and Uttarabhojanam (after eating).}...pranahuti is meaningless without any experience of witnessing the 5 pranas within ๐Ÿ˜œ)



Touch cure, is to some extent related to this.

Raw and organic food is related to pranic energy ( junk food is at the other extreme end , with the exception of a ‘prasadam’ offered as ‘neivedya’ to a deity ( often an idol guaranteed_to_emit a ‘chaitanya’, not a dummy stone, bereft_of_energy ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™).

Emotions are good carriers of pranic energy, subject to mutual Compatibility ๐Ÿ˜œ

Brahma_muhurta, local time, minimised the dissipation of energy, enabling the ‘reach’ to longer distances! ( Exactly why, proximity of an energetic fellow helps better.  Experiments have ‘proved’ that the ‘field’ reduces the latency of conveying Electric energy over distances….. the same ‘field’ if too strong, like a powerhouse/transformers, can cause neuro_disorder of brain๐Ÿ˜œ)

Many such ‘relatable’ exampulls/examples for various manifest-‘forms’ of pranic energy ๐Ÿ™ ( even the ritual of ‘blessing’ by touching the top of the head of a recipient is ‘empty’ without any transmission of pranic energy ๐Ÿ˜œ.  A ‘hollow’ ritual cannot ‘sustain’ sans_experience๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ).


(A teaser ๐Ÿ˜œ:  Naadi_doctor is an endangered species among humans today ๐Ÿ˜œ. The ‘NEET’ exam for entrance/admission is designed by ‘nature’. An aspirant should be able to ‘sense’ the 3 naadi’s( praanic channels) at least ๐Ÿ™. At PhD level, this guy can sense the INTENSITY of main naadi, and diagnose the life_span of a patient, which the other systems of medicine CANNOT๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™. 

A Punch: one ‘naadi daaktarr/doctor' accidentally Benedicted me{not blessed me}, by pronouncing the ‘abnormally_low’ intensity of main naadi, thereby…certifying_Inadvertently, the quality of my meditaShun that preceded his checking of my_wrist. ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™.  I don't expect a reader to grasp this paragraph easily๐Ÿ˜ญ)

Wholesale mutual conflict

 Wholesale mutual conflict 



A good friend summed up the consequences of conflict between few nations in the middle East (march 2026) and the economic consequences adversely affecting the entire world.


Quote:

[13/03/2026, 6:03 am] That wellwisher: 

In the end common ma is squeezed from all sides. Only in India opposition and their followers blame govt in world crisis for everything. Even the countries involved in the war or other countries are not blaming their own govt for crisis happening due to war elsewhere.






[13/03/2026, 6:30 am] my response: Karma comes back to "common man"....๐Ÿ™



42% GDP ( if the stories and history is true๐Ÿ™)



Most literate, knowledgeable, and inclusive ones decided to remain humble+ frugal by saying bhavati bhiksham dehi( give me almost/food), so that an iron-drome shields them from greedy.

Bijness people ( Chettiar, agrawal, etc) decided to become "chowkidar" like Modi, of wealth ๐Ÿ™, a tougher option ๐Ÿ˜ข. 

Warrior class, their women folk especially, demand repayment of mother's milk by asking their son to sacrifice his life to protect a greater mom, Bharat mata, and kshatriyas lived+died unto that debt. Overwhelmed by these three, observing them 24/7, the fourth varna didn't need any tutoring afresh.


By-product ? Trust swells over generations. Acceptance deepens enough to keep the atma of all the 4, liberated enough to remain 'joyous' for entire life! 

Way of life.... Hinduism, a strong software ๐Ÿ˜œ



Once we allowed our mind to become selfish, our inclusiveness broke apart.  Just look at "trust" . Impatience caused mistrust to throw baseless allegations against me

 even in a

totally non_commercial group we had ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿคฃ and I bowed out humbly, accepting the allegations without any protest/defense๐Ÿ™. ( I ought to be responsible atleast for myself ----symbolism of Hinduism, a_lotus. It doesn't protest the slush, instead uses it as manure to bloom even more๐Ÿ˜œ. Modi Ji said this on a 'public address system' about himself ๐Ÿ™.  The crux is, the essence is= each individual has to become response_abled/responsible. Otherwise 'nature' exempts only those few who choose responsibility, and karma deals in "wholesale bijness"! ๐Ÿ™

Negative Approach

Something that doesn't even warrant any pucca 'definition' (my perspective, at least until it appeals to a few more ๐Ÿ™)

But,
a sample is quite harmless ๐Ÿ‘

A young and newly married couple were 'analysing' the vomit of their baby, a few months old. I was watching the fun for a while.
argument broke out like,
'Why should this item come out first? the rule is last_in_first_out isn't it, when the journey is in reverse? Engine last, when a train is shunting backwards?"
the other spouse interjected: "Not necessarily....  Use a 'bit' of logic.  The first_in item like a half-ripe banana bit can FLOAT isn't it? And during a vomit, what floats, comes out first. When a water dam Overflows during a torrential rain, the dry grass which floats, spills-over-first, though that grass was occupying the dried water dam since last summer ๐Ÿ‘"
It went on-and-on.
I normally don't interfere in the 'family-matters' of others. ๐Ÿ™  But here, two PRIME reasons:1) I was acceptable to both. And, 2)emotional conflict was yet to creep-in.  They were only fighting with logic. Logic is like thin sticks used to hurt the other, without-any-scope for an injury ๐Ÿ˜œ
I said:  "Wrong approach, dear friends ๐Ÿ™"
They :"hey psn....  we thought you will declare a Winner instead ๐Ÿ˜ถ"
me: " Approach itself is wrong...  and  I mean it !"
They were showing a sample of restlessness + uneasiness ๐Ÿ˜‚( a good symptom. They will be 2% better atttentive)
me:  Firstly, the child is awaiting your 'decision' to provide a medical attention. No elders with you to refer (google search not there 30 years ago. I didn't qualify as an 'elder' until I touch at least 60 ๐Ÿ˜‚. Stupid social norms....  age has nothing to 'do' with 'elderliness')
me: " Did you 'hear' a doctor  asking for a Vomit-Sample?  Like the 'Stools sample'? ๐Ÿ™??? Every wonder 'Why'????  Vomit is due to indigestion. Starting point.  Stools is a info of  "residue, due to poor digestion, etc, etc, and several etc's ....."   
They: ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ
Me:  " Analysing the contents of a vomit,  is not going to take you anywhere.  Its like trying to analyze the blabber of a confused mind, using  psychiatry.  Undigested thoughts spill out  during a senseless blabber. The material of a mind comes out from the mouth/words itself, whether with or without digestion. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Mother nature was wise, in using dissimilar exit points for undigested and poorly digested intake. She did not 'take any chances' with human common sense !"
They nodded. 
The doctor prescribed 'sequential steps' and the kid recouped well  in two days!

A very popular 'approach' is " How to find a genuine Guru?. Is a guru needed-at-all? (Etc)"

Even about death, the popular approach is "doctor certified that he/she is dead๐Ÿ‘Nothing more to it now. Worry about disposal of the carcass now" 

Guru:  The approach is futile.  When a Guru decides upon a disciple, the latter is choiceless about it  ๐Ÿ˜œ.  (Logically, unacceptable.  I agree! A cyclone, storm or earthquake doesn't seek my permission before it engulfs me ๐Ÿ˜‚.  A guru is far more 'Lethal' than any of these natural calamities. He doesn't need a negative-approach to reach me.  He has the 'core' of existence to work for him ๐Ÿ™.  An old adage, not easy to digest is:  "Khudi ko kar buland itna, Ki har tehreer se pehle, Khuda khud bandey se pooche 'bataa teri raza kya hai?"  It is not about 'obliging to the whims of any egoist. It is about a Guru positioning himself in synchronicity with cosmic laws, and then choosing a 'ready-victim' to pounce upon๐Ÿ˜‚)

Death:  A doctor certifies only "clinical death" (when we 'can' talk like:  My body , my mind...   there ought to be a "me" isn't it?...  )...   See, if it makes sense to approach death,  using our focus on the "me, I" within...๐Ÿ˜ฅ!  Wrong or negative approach doesn't matter to others, about death. Anyway they know the  route to graveyard.  I needn't worry about this-one-destination and its route-map, location, the graveyard. ๐Ÿ˜‚


Positive approach?
Everything that is life-negative is negative, and anything life-positive is positive for me   ๐Ÿ™.  I decided to 'approach' that piece of thing ticking inside me called 'life or praana'.  How can that 'approach' go wrong/negative, ever?...   
My approach towards any situation in material life, can go wrong/negative. But, my orientation to lean towards Praana, helps me to 'auto-spell-check' any mis-takes/errors/negativity in approaching the situations around me ๐Ÿ˜œ 
On a serious note,  I have avoided my 'approach' itself, to quite a  few around me, owing to my age, and mindful of their precious time, when I eat-up their time ๐Ÿ™.  Only they solicit nuisance/trouble, when they persist to retain a 'social' plastic smile to be flashed onto me . That way, I am more-available, to genuine TRUST in me, by a rare few.  No constitution can enforce Trust in me on any citizen. By their_right, I am a 'kaafir' to a very large number ๐Ÿ‘.  I accept+acknowledge their 'right' to treat me thus, under 'freedom-list' in desi KaanstooShun/constitution.  No qualms about a negative-approach by them ๐Ÿ™ 

Neutrally yours,

Side effects of better Focus

 Side effects of better Focus


Lengthy blogs seem to diminish the ability to focus,....  in a reader ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ญ( this is quite illogical, but a fact. Something to do with psychology ๐Ÿ˜œ. And a new disease for modern minds). Ancient epics were voluminous and ‘no probs’ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ


A true incident:

This happened in 1976.

I had a very close friend working in the largest PSU-bank. I was sitting beside him during my routine visit there.

Manual work, without calculator machine.

Totalling 17 rows of 8 or 9 digit numbers is prone to errors in addition. Handwritten numbers don't align vertically sometimes, and contribute to errors in picking hundreds as tens or thousands ๐Ÿ˜œ.

This guy NEVER rechecks his totals.

And as a rare_breed, he doesn't write the right_most numeral of a vertical row added each_time. He writes the ENTIRE sum (added) at once and at last๐Ÿ˜‚… 9 to 10 digits, including the two decimals of ‘paise’.

The incident: His boss came to his desk to point out an error committed.

Boss: “your totals are wrong on this page! Check and rectify ๐Ÿ˜ ”

Friend: “where exactly are you finding your mismatch?” 

Boss :” you do the ‘finding out’ not me”( not a friendly tone…๐Ÿ˜‚)

Friend (cool): how much money do you have in your pocket/purse right now?”

Boss: “whhhat???? What has THAT got to here now?”

Friend:”cost of asking me to re_do my work(reTotalling)”

Boss : nonsense! It's your job, when asked to do something (official authority quoted. Plain ‘dadagiri’)

( By now, I have become ‘tense’ within ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ญ. My friend, an emotional bond. But I am an outsider here. Can't run away, nor can I deal_with/face the emerging “situation “)

Friend: “see, I normally don't engage myself in futility, but I can oblige for a fee,  net worth of your purse๐Ÿ˜‚. Of course, if I lose( I erred in my totalling) my purse is yours๐Ÿ‘”

Boss ( annoyed to his Limit): “nothing doing. Just obey๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก. This is an office, not a gambling den”

Friend: “in that case …. I refuse ๐Ÿ™. You can keep_totalling, till you arrive at ‘my total’ or….as a boss, initiate a disciplinary action for my disobedience ๐Ÿ‘. But please go away now. I have my_work to do”

Boss went away 

Me : ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ at my friend 

Friend ( to me): “Don't worry. He will learn a lesson today ‘not to Mess with me’๐Ÿ˜œ”


That day, I met a RARE specimen. A friend who DERIVED such resolute self_confidence as a SIDE_EFFECT( benefit, an incidental by_product) of super focus in his ‘work’.  A Guru ๐Ÿ™

I was ‘already’ above average in accuracy of figurework among my colleagues at my workplace. But his incident inspired me saying “eh??? You are nothing. Try to further improve your focus now. He, your dear friend is a bench mark”

I worked on “focus”. 


180° u_turn, happened to my sharpened_focus, 

from outwards( my 5 sense organs, my tools of focus)

to inwards(1992)...withdrawing the ‘sensitivity_alone’ of my sense organs( CONSCIOUSLY, not switching them off, like it happens in my deep_sleep ๐Ÿ˜ฐ๐Ÿ™).


Tragedy:  no ‘tangible’ tools for inward_focus, like our 5 sense organs, ๐Ÿ˜ฐ

So?  forge the subtle tools, to become available in my awareness, firstly, and only then to think of ‘using’ it for focus_inward.


Hurdle :  is…the fool inside me, who can_focus, gets mixed up with my_body & my_mind, without a Warning ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ (example: some idiot trampled my toes in a crowded bus and I yell “Why are U trampling ME??” . later I re_frame my words at home to my spouse ”a fellow trampled MY_TOES in the bus today!”.... later, “my mind lost its cool the other day, when a fellow trampled my_toes in the bus” …. Who am I??? if it is my_mind, my_body, when the ‘i’ is a little calm, oriented, better focused etc?? Dunno, as yet๐Ÿ™

Interim_tragedy ๐Ÿ˜œ : my_mind, focusing on itself, it's own non_verbal thoughts, IS_NOT_THE-ME….๐Ÿ˜‚)


De_focused, hence yours,

Tricky questions

 Tricky questions

I usually ask only "silly questions"๐Ÿ™( A whole blog of samples, and when the cup was full, I continued it as "silly doubts")

That doesn't meant I don't face 'tricky questions' at all ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

3 samples:

Joke form :
Judge: " answer yes-or-no.... Has your wife stopped beating you???"
witness: "๐Ÿ˜ฐ"( he sensed a trap .... in both, a yes or a no)


Escapist form:
Cannibal :" If you are truthful, we roast you and eat, If you lie, we eat you raw. Now, Who are you?"
Victim : " I am a liar" ( a paradoxical answer๐Ÿ˜‡. They let him go, unable to decide whether it was true/false)

Formatted form : Look at a 4-page Loan_proposal form .... for unsecured/inadequately_secured  loan from a Bank.   There are repeat questions in 1st and 4th page. But cleverly worded. Deceptive questions.  A dishonest answer at both places, will mismatch, and the fellow processing the loan proposal is 'trained' to sight such hidden lies!๐Ÿ˜‰( A set of tricky questions, like a CBI investigator, but in a 'template')

My experience (can't prove it with evidence๐Ÿ˜“)
Exit interview : "What are the factors leading to your decision to retire so_prematurely?" ( the idea was to provoke me to narrate/spill my woes. Convincing arguements were well prepared to retain me ๐Ÿ˜‰)
Me:  Only 1 factor. No plural 'are'...  only 'is'.  I joined for salary. Now I can do without salary . Simple (I torpedoed the hidden 'trick' with a straight_forward answer, which was the essence of my several 'factors'. Workplace ambience couldn't offer any additional reason other than "I badly need a salary". Instead, it dissuaded me negatively ๐Ÿ˜‰.  But why should I not avoid the 'trap'?)
He : (๐Ÿ˜“forgot what else to ask NOW!!) : " well, in that case, it's your choice now!๐Ÿ™" 
( Don corleone, in "Godfather" movie said, "I make a proposal, which the other can't refuse". A lesson that comes handy in my life in tricky situations)

A.I. enabled scenario
me to google : "Shiva laid down before Kali to pacify her?" ( A.I. is programmed to 'search' using 'key' words....   Shiva (epic name), Kali (epic heroine, angry), pacify (related symbolism, Shiva-Shakti combo)
Google Maharaj : (too lengthy result, to paste here! But I got the 'symbolism' involved.. several write-ups, by facebook users, quoting the symbolism from books, etc...  though a copypaste, I can 'use' my own spiritual experience to evaluate it 'intelligently'๐Ÿ˜‰ The 'asking' part is tricky with A.I. ๐Ÿ™. Right kind of key words!!!)

I ain't no good at sanskrit.

 I ain't no good at sanskrit. ( Popular version of Double negative ๐Ÿ˜œ)


I came across a paradoxical set of 2 attributes to the “conceptual” sense of Nothingness, called Lord Shiva ๐Ÿ™.



Attributes: kshamavan & kshipraKopi.

( Patient and Short_tempered ๐Ÿ˜œ. A paradox. If he is going to be my AadiGuru, YogiRaj, it is my Bijness to understand his_attributes deeper ๐Ÿ˜ญ)


So, I googled “kshama has 2 dissimilar meaning, patience and forbearance. Why?”

( The results awed me ๐Ÿ™.  The deep emotions and its manifest form look_different ๐Ÿ˜œ.  But the ‘language’ is RICH_ENOUGH to guide us unto both the meanings ( and a lot more ๐Ÿ™, all of them being “super accurate+ unambiguous ๐Ÿ™. The only thing I,  I need to EVOLVE enough to comprehend all the variables in all its connotations/context and grasp๐Ÿ˜ญ).



Mallus “use” the deeper sense( emotion called ‘patience’) in their adapted form in Malayalam ๐Ÿ™.  A.I. doesn't need any emotions. So patience is irrelevant. Its processor speed is its limit. 



A.I. results of search:

Kshama (เค•्เคทเคฎा) is considered a "word rich in meaning" in Sanskrit, encompassing not just two, but a spectrum of interconnected virtues—primarily patience, forbearance, forgiveness, and mercy.

 +2

It appears to have dissimilar meanings in English because it bridges internal emotional regulation (patience) with external behavioral response (forbearance/forgiveness). 

Here is why it covers both:

1. The Linguistic Root: "To Let Go"

Kshama originates from the Sanskrit root ksham, meaning "to release the grip, to let go, or to lift up". 

Patience: Letting go of the desire for things to happen immediately (internal).

Forbearance: Letting go of the desire for retribution (external). 

2. The Functional Definition: "Large-Heartedness"

Kshama is defined as having the capacity to be "large-hearted," or the ability to absorb and dissolve all assaults. 

As Patience (Internal): It implies remaining serene and restraining impatience with circumstances or people.

As Forbearance (External): It implies staying calm, restraining anger, and not retaliating, even when wronged.

3. The Spiritual Context: "Protecting the Self"

Kshama is sometimes broken down as Ksa (to destroy) and Ma (to protect), meaning it protects one's inner virtue from being destroyed by negative emotions like anger and jealousy.

Patience is required to keep your temper while facing adversity.

Forbearance is required to protect your spirit by choosing not to harm someone who has harmed you.

In summary, Kshama isn't just waiting (patience) or just tolerating (forbearance); it is the comprehensive, active, and courageous capacity to forgive, endure, and remain peaceful in the face of provocation or difficulty”

Why do Desi scriptures matter?

 Why do desi scriptures matter?


Anyone who manages to annex power over others without using a long_lasting source of own power is bound to be under mental pressure. The pressure is due to the potential threat like “what if the slaves under me become wiser than me?? I will get overthrown, and lose the luxury of their obedience!”


Political power today leans too heavily on the ignorance of the voters in a democracy. In dictatorship, it leans on the blind_loyalty of those who have the brutal power, and are willing to obey one single brainy fellow who can combine their might.


Scriptures, very unfortunately ‘seeks’ to liberate every human without any exception, unto a responsible freedom using the utmost scientific reasoning humanly possible! Once the core basics of the entire existence is a living experience in a human, inclusiveness is a natural consequence and Unison (synchronicity) obviates the need for any ‘forged/forced unity ๐Ÿ˜œ


If the foregoing is acceptable for valid reasons, the revulsion of those in power, without this wisdom ( about scriptures) becomes clear, and we can understand the reason for their hatred towards Sanatan Dharma.


There are 2 ways to approach the knowable of/about our_entire existence. Approach from gross towards the subtle, and the other one is to understand the utmost micro and subtlest ‘base’ of the existence and then ‘learn’ how the gross edifice got constructed using it.


Intellect is the fellow equipped to ‘decide’ the better option, and of lasting value. 


The history of modern science ought_to_be enough to help us to get familiar with the ‘nature’ of our modern model of approach ๐Ÿ™. A few examples might convince us.

1.An intellectual discovered that an atom is the smallest particle of matter around us. Macro to micro approach ๐Ÿ™. It made sense ๐Ÿ‘. A recognition was conferred. Some other intellectual decided to explore further towards micro. He discovered that atom has smaller components like electron, neutron and proton. Later the ‘space’ around these three seemed to matter more๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜œ( so on..)

2.Electricity paved the way for electronics.(Micro again)...

3)The travel of energy called light paved the way for further micro understanding of bending of this light, due to subtler factors.

4) study of human physiology and it's approach towards micro, paved the way for understanding of a virtual organ like mind better, and it bettered our study of psychology. ( It is interesting to ‘notice' that psychology is missing in the ancient scriptures as a study_material ๐Ÿ˜œ. The reason is too obvious. The scriptural approach was focused at taming the mind, and therefore, a science like psychology which only_aims at keeping the mind under manageable levels is redundant ๐Ÿคฃ)


Nature itself guided ancients about the better option of approach. The tangible process of life is growth from a micro to macro. A tiny seed grows into a mega life form. Intellect was used, when it dawned on the ancients that a mind can only use the memories of its inputs from the past.  From experience, it became clear that intellect transcends the limitations of a mind. So the approach evolved very_naturally, from brain( gross) to the ‘mind’ ( subtler) and ultimately the subtlest called intellect.  When the ‘direction’ of the approach turned right, it was only a question of refining the tools and techniques to be used for reaching the most_micro structure, the subtlest form of creation.  This approach necessitates the sharpening of ‘learning' process. Obviously, ‘how_to_learn’ preceded the entire process of learning. When we ‘look’ at the documented evidence available in the scriptures, our intellect is challenged with basic questions like “how_the_hell did they manage to predict the movement pattern of so many celestial bodies so accurately without the use of any gadget???๐Ÿค””.  Unfortunately, medical science did not even manage to ask a very similar question about the ancients, related to their own ‘field’ like “how did the ancients manage to define the spirit’s exit, while we are ‘stuck’ at certifying only ‘clinical’ death, and have no idea at all about the the actual thing called ‘life’ ticking inside a person alive???๐Ÿค” ( Even a sensible question depends too heavily on the peak_level_efficiency of the intellect!). It would be pertinent for us to ‘notice' here that…..among all the texts available for medical professionals of all the different systems of medicine, Ayurveda is the ONLY text authored by people who attained the highest human POSSIBILITY ๐Ÿ™.  It makes sense, if our mind permits us to learn a little bit of Ayurveda alongwith/alongside whatever else we try to reach a PhD, in medical science ๐Ÿ™. ( I actually managed to convince a professor in botany teaching to post graduate finalists, to offer her knowledge to the Ayurveda students, on a trial basis ๐Ÿ™. She knew much about live_plants, which becomes the after_life raw material for ayurvedic kids as their medicinal ‘herbs’๐Ÿคฃ.  She rewarded me with her tears of joy, of realisation that she had the potential to reshape the approach of modern students in ayurveda with a quantum leap!๐Ÿ™. Any new idea when attempted as an ‘experiment’ gives rise to apprehensions of cost, viability, feasibility etc. I had to ‘tone down' the surge of these negative emotions in her mind, for some 3 plus hours, alongside my efforts to convince the worth of this ‘complementing’ approach to improve the human well-being of their physical health ๐Ÿ™. That was about 2 decades ago.)


My personal experience is, this approach to reach the subtlest form and then studying the grosser levels constructed thereupon has had a side_effect in me๐Ÿ˜ญ. I turned a little vulnerable to the functional form of a Vedic chanting, which was used quite harmlessly in a printed form for decades, and now discarded by a famous organisation dedicated to study Desi_hinduism (BVB) and their logo was “Aano bhadraah krtavo yanthu vishwataha” ( quite harmless, until it gets provoked by a half_mad_nut like me ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ™. Irreversible consequences. Better to avoid it—--functional aspect—beyond logical learning/info).

Why I stopped 'trying' to be good

 Why I stopped 'trying' to be good?

Throughout my kid age, and even during adulthood, I kept struggling in vain, trying to be 'good'.

Problem was, I had to compromise too often with my own 'sensibility' and had to do something very senseless, just in order to be "good".

somewhere in 1992, somebody opened my eyes to 'see' something which was already quite obvious. Just that, my perception levels were not good_enough to 'observe' what I was able to 'see'.
The eye_opener said "See, if you have be 'good' there have to be 9 others around you who are bad! If all are equally_good, where is the distinction ?" 
I gotcha๐Ÿ‘(got it)
The second half of the eye opener was something I didn't have to 'practice' afresh! (It is going to be embarrassing to even read it, so  I omit it๐Ÿ™. It calls for something not-at-all easy, though damn simple!)


When I stopped 'trying' to be good (to others, to suit their tastes, their comfort zones, their advantage in handling/exploiting me), the consequences were very much on expected lines!๐Ÿ™ 
I became, very different things to different peepals/people:
a) Not so good, but just-okay. ( I help them only when they really need, and ask for it)
b) not good (when they ask me to do what they_want me to do, when they too know it is not the right thing for me to do in that situation.  Like, they dump abnormally excess food onto my plate as my host, and 'expect' me to stuff it into my stomach, suffer indigestion, and other consequences! I tell them very politely : "My stomach is not your garbage_bin ๐Ÿ™. I shall remember to be careful, when you serve my food!")
c) Un_amenable, bad (when I refuse to part with my hard_earned savings, to give them a non-refundable loan to enable them for their_routine_essentials, Where as they frittered away their adequate income to pamper their 'luxury' desires, way_beyond their means!)

I was not 'causing' any deliberate/intentional/sadistic inconvenience/harm/injury/hurdle etc to anyone around.   Quite simple---my own life pursuit was already a huge task for me to chase.  Spirituality. And any idiot like me, on a spiritual path, is automaticallly_harmless to all others around. The very basic-requirements for the journey are such, that my thoughts, words & deeds(actions) are entirely my bijness, and nothing to do with anyone else๐Ÿ˜‚.

But, if I mind my_own_business,  I am a sitting duck to a few around (Materialistic mind of the present day is such, their antenna is ever looking for a 'scape goat' to exploit). 
Here, a story I had heard in my kid age, helped me to reach for my common_sense ๐Ÿ™. A snake decided to be 'good'. I decided to follow a saint's advise 'not to bite humans with its poisonous fangs'.  It suited the humans around, when it did not 'pose' a threat to their lives.  One day, kids were playing nearby where the snake was taking rest, coiled.  (A still snake doesn't get noticed! Please remember to check and verify this. Looks like a mystery, but it's true ๐Ÿ™). Accidentally, the ball with_which they were playing hit the snake.  They expected the snake to get angry and bite. But our_snake was on the path of trying_to_be_good ๐Ÿ‘.  It did not react.  Kids grew curious.  They threw a tiny pebble. No reaction. Emboldened, they used larger stones and enjoyed hurting the snake.  With great difficulty, the snake withstood the injuries and remained_good.  When it could bear no more, it crawled away, and headed straight to its Guru, that saint and complained "see ...  I tried to follow your advise, and I am now bruised, bleeding, and suffering ๐Ÿ˜ญ"
The saint said, " I had only asked you not_to_bite.  Did I ask you not to Hisss????"
Story over! 
I used the 'common_sense' in that story.  I hisss (like a snake), and those few who "take me for granted" now keep a safe distance.   For my part,  I don't carry any hate/anger/dislike/etc against them(these negatives are a hurdle on spiritual path ๐Ÿ™). I become 'dead' to them, as far as I am concerned. And, we can''t exploit a 'dead' fool!๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜‰...  I don't 'exist' in their experience. 


Very Badly yours,

Lessons for me from the Iran war

 Lessons for me, from Iran War


Iran’s ability to “withstand” even 6 days, has surprised many of the attackers. Did they underestimate Iran? 

Underestimate what_exactly? Weapons or their strong will ?

Or their practice with facing adversities from nature & humans?

Other nations who had ‘weakness' for crude oil ( dependence) jumped in ๐Ÿ˜œ


Bharat withstood invasions OF ALL KINDS for thousands of years.

Whether “Indians” are resilient or not….the irreligious Hinduism of Indians is RESILIENT. ๐Ÿ˜œ

Individuals who are able to protect their own Hinduism within themselves, are protected by_the_Hinduism inside_them, PROPORTIONATELY ๐Ÿ˜œ. ( Dharmo rakhshati Rakshita ๐Ÿ™).

Core of Hinduism is Sanatan Dharma.

The essence of Sanatan Dharma is the 4 declaratory truths.

Experiential-awareness, STABILISED within,  of the 4 declaratory truths ( MahaVakyas) is the ultimate protection against any kind of invasion/war ๐Ÿ™


It works for me ( to the 00.00001% extent) that I managed thus far ๐Ÿ˜ฐ.   Enough to reassure me that I need not keep checking the map/milestones(scriptures) all the time, time to time, to know whether I am on the correct route/road/track ๐Ÿ™.  My only job is to continue my journey. Clarity is there about the ‘road’ leading me towards the destination. The road and journey itself will become the destination ( mystic secret ๐Ÿ˜œ). My baby_steps....choicelessness is the only freedom ever. 


I can't do much, if Iran or its enemies decide to fight_to_finish. But I can learn from them both ๐Ÿ™. 


Peacefully yours,

 Scriptures


3 march 2026



[03/03, 10:54 am] a query, seeking my_vieews:

 I love listening to Upanyasam and Bhagawata Puranam. It falls in the realm of belief. However I feel it has its own value. Reading scriptures also helps. Your views.


[03/03, 10:59 am] PSN:

 Okay....

My personal/private/individual take......

on this.....

"All the known scriptures, in all its various forms( written, remembered, spoken, lectured, propounded etc) are....either a roadmap or a milestone for a seeker. By themselves they don't 'lead' us unto Moksha"

This principle worked for_me too well ๐Ÿ‘

psn(3 march, 2026)

Post script:  then, what else ?


Walk the pathless path๐Ÿ‘(with or without a Guru ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™)


Proof: AadiShankara already tolded "เคจเคนि เคจเคนि เคฐเค•्เคทเคคि เคกुเค•ृเคž्เค•เคฐเคฃे" 


Khunnas(เค–ुเคจ्เคจเคธ,in hindi, Vindictiveness)

 Khunnas(เค–ुเคจ्เคจเคธ,in hindi, Vindictiveness)

I love this word "Khunnas(เค–ुเคจ्เคจเคธ,in hindi).....

Love is due to the innocence in the "people" who use it tooo often :))

Mumbaikars!
Yesss!
They observe its occurrence often because they don't carry it themselves!
I shall give an irrefutable evidence ๐Ÿ™
Does 'vindictiveness'/Khunnas(เค–ुเคจ्เคจเคธ,) allow "inclusiveness"??????๐Ÿ™
Now,   without inclusiveness can any 'Metro' (like Mumbai, with all its highest attributes that can be only envied, not acquired, by any other metro of that-size, be posssible???
MOST-COSMOPOLITON city ๐Ÿ™( Financial capital of Bharat---- they defied the maxim "money and power corrupts)


The secret(now)
Somehow, aam aadmi of mumbai decided to walk fast!
We hasten our speed with a purpose (to catch a bus before it leaves the bus-stop. A housewife hastens towards the stove "Oh! The milk is boiled. shouldn't allow it to spill over.  A cowherd hastens towards a cow which might get lost, if allowed to continue its diverted walk :)) .... and so on)
A mumbaikar walks damn f a s t....  without needing any purpose. I had to stand+stare on the famous Dadar-overbridge, for 60 full minutes just-to-observe common folks scurrying in both-directions, with a stern look, without any 'purpose'.   "Keep busy" must have been a Unison mantra they imbibed as a CONTAGION :)) ....  a fresher to mumbai , who are in thousands, each day, from nook & corner of Bharat (that is India), pour in, and manage to find the means of livelihood. They learn in 'no_time' to adjust to ABSENCE OF Basic_amenities, increasing  EACH_DAY,  due to swelling influx!

Now, the secret ๐Ÿ™....
Inclusiveness is the adhesive, that holds, INDIVIDUALS, ....  INDIVIDUALLY-together!( Not needing any boss/dada/leader/neta/priest/religious-head).
Incrementing the 'pace' of life (despite severe odds... Super crowded local trains, streets, overbridges, living spaces of match-box sizes) keeps the mind 'free' from Khunnas/vindictiveness.  The minor ailments like greed, desire, jealousy, etc doesn't get ENOUGH Nutrients to thrive in the mind. :)) 
Innocence is unawares, because it is an inevitable by-product in mass_scale, in a cluster called "Mumbaikars". Yessss! innocence out of ignorance/unawareness, is vulnerable to exploitation 24/7 ๐Ÿ™

It then dawned on me...   "Hey! the core essence of Sanatan Dharma" (VasudaivaKutumbakam) is available as a remnant in Mumbai!!!!  Name is camouflaged as... "cosmopoliton" city! 

I still love Mumbaikars ๐Ÿ™
Quite innocently and grossly unawares, they end up being a Guru to me privately, personally, about one-ness, togetherness, jointness, about Vasudaiva Kutumbakam.  Even Ajmal Kasab (himself a victim of radicalisation), couldn't 'CONTAIN' the resilience of Mumbaikar towards Sanatan Dharma. Mumbai bounces back to 'life' at super speed even after the Worst kind of any terror attack!
My only worry is, we non-Mumbaikars (world-minus-mumbaikars) do-not-know-even, how to preserve this rare species with their "mumbaikarNess"๐Ÿ™

My heartfelt NAMAN ๐Ÿ™ TO each of the 'nameless' mumbaikar of Mumbai. 

Without any

Learning and studying

 Learning and studying 


๐Ÿ˜‚


I will make it ‘simple’ ๐Ÿ™

( Not my problem, if “simple is not always easy” ….in this case too, for any reader, in grasping the distinction between the 2๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ™)


My mom died an illiterate ๐Ÿ™ ( zero scope for “studies” ….the way literacy is ‘structured’ in the design of “education” in schools ๐Ÿ™)


She ‘learnt’ telugu very well. Well_enough to become inter-woven seamlessly with telugu_born locals at Hyderabad ๐Ÿ™. ( Probably, ‘how to learn’ was an inherited karma, in her, when her elder sister-----also an illiterate , wedded before puberty ----managed to learn Telugu+ sanskrit well enough to pose a formidable threat to pandits in Sanskrit, experts in the ancient tarka_shastra, at a remote village ‘inkoluu’ ( near Chirala, Andhra Pradesh) ๐Ÿ™



I ‘studied’ telugu as a subject(2nd language) at school, from 4th to 12th, and even ‘passed’ with good marks๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

But I never managed to ‘learn’ the language, except for faltering with even the ‘working knowledge’ level required for basic/primitive communication with Telugu_only_peepals/People ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ™.



Matter over.

Switch on your “already available+ inbuilt Sense_of_discrimination”, if at all your priorities permit your mind to ‘perceive’ the distinction judiciously ๐Ÿ™


Studiously yours,

Postscript 
 A joke...

Kids of rich guys try to Study swimming at a swimming school, but are hesitant to jump into a turbulent river to swim across.

Whereas,

An illiterate kid of a poor fisherman 'learns' enough swimming ( naturally) to wade through powerful waves at the shores of a mighty Ocean ๐Ÿ˜œ






 An honest confession:

My tribal Brethren in deep African jungles are ....

*_hundred times better Learned than me(๐Ÿ™), about  mother_nature, when they live_with nature, because I have only_studied nature in my school, as a subject "nature study & hygeine"_* ๐Ÿ˜ž
