Beliefs versus experiential-knowledge

 Beliefs versus experiential-knowledge


I believe an electrician when he says “sir, you can safely touch that wire. It won't ‘shock’ you”

I touch. I get a shock 😥

I don't have any reason as_yet to disbelieve the electrican 🙏

His turn now👍

He inserts the tester_screwdriver into a live plughole. The tester doesn't glow 😜

Sheepishly he apologises: saaari saar( sorry sir,🙏) tester’s bulb is fused !

( “If a concept in irreligious_Hinduism fails to work, better check my premise”, i tolded/told myself 🙏)




A story i heard from my dad.


Centuries ago, when Christianity had just_invaded the shorees of Kerala….

An orthodox Namboothiri and a devout Father(a priest) grew up together as very close friends. Their religion never stood between their friendship ( unlike the ‘forced conversion’ tactics etc of today😓)


Both were aged, when the Namboothiri once got afflicted by a swelling in his legs. All kinds of native treatments failed to at least arrest the swelling . 


During a routine walk along the banks of a river near their dwellings, the Namboothiri asked his friend “hey friend….you also happen to know a bit of Ayurveda, isn't it? Can you suggest a remedy for this leg_swelling? Unable to walk comfortably with you_even, my dearest friend 😥”

Father : “ well, there's indeed a medicine, but it won't suit you, a strict vegetarian by religion 🙏😓”

Namboori : “okay, tell me what it is?”

Father : medicated fat of a snake 

Namboori: Shiva_Shiva!! Can't think of it 😳

Father: i told you, you won't agree to it 👍

Namboori: well, if not medicine, let me try my ‘faith’... Daily sandhyavandan in this river, standing waist_deep in water flow!


A few months later, the ailment got cured 😜


Namboori: see! My prayers worked. I am better now!

Father: Good 🙏… can we take a walk upstream, for a little distance, now that you are better and can walk easier?

Namboori: of course…let's walk👍


About a kilometre ahead, the father stopped.

Father, pointing to a huge pair of rock in the river : “friend, do you see the carcass of a huge python that got wedged between the rocks, and the water flowing over its partly decayed body?”

Namboori: i do see….what about it?

Father, smiling : the water contained the fat of that snake. You sipped thrice each time, each rituals for days, daily. I had suggested just a spoonful. But you consumed a larger dose, unawares 🙏. It seems to have worked 👍


( Forget about the emotional aftermath,🙏. Pause button for the rest of the story)


“Vataapi jeerno bhava( Mr vataapi, may you get digested)”... a dialogue from a puranic story.

A rishi was fed a goat_flesh, deceptively by the other twin brother of a rakshasa pair. The first one turns himself into a goat. The other makes a meal from the flesh of this ‘goat’ and feeds to passers_by in the forest. Soon after the Brahmin eats ( non_veg…please Note🙏), the living fellow calls out ‘vataapi, come out’. Then they both feast on the dead victim! A boon, that the pair got “death will be simultaneously only”. This rishi transcends the misused boon by using own spiritual powers,🙏. 


Shraadha ceremony in ancient days, the designated representative of the invoked_soul was fed meat+liquor ( as per stories). When the capacity to recover from the negatives of eating meat, drinking liquor deteriorated, the meat got replaced by ulud_vada, and liquor by honey🙏


I inferred from the above ( i may be wrong 🙏, but my guess-work…. works for me😜) : The entire Edifice of what is misconstrued as Hinduism today, is actually scientific. What is misconstrued as rigid_orthodoxy today, was actually a scientific concept, aimed for refining oneself for a specific purpose 🙏. 

I read in “Readers’ Digest” during 1960’s….neuroSurgeons abstain from “coffee” a week ahead of a brain_surgery, to ensure a steady pair of hands👍.  I took this clue and tried to ‘look' for a scientific reason behind those ‘seemingly stupid orthodoxic eccentricities’ . ( I coined a sentence for my personal use : any kind of self_refinement necessarily envisages some_kind of self imposed restriction 🙏…. Over years, this verbal form has turned into an instinctive non_verbal response within me 😜🙏).


My own gradual increase in sensitivity beyond sensory levels of perception happened to open the floodgates of insight into the ‘subtle' spiritual bijness/practices 😜🙏🙏🙏. I am constrained only_by the possible limited receptivity of the other, in sharing my experience 🙏



OpenMindedly yours,

Map drawing book

 Map drawing book


Some where in my 4 and 5 class in my school life, a subject “Geography” popped up 😜



My dad's purse got lightened a bit more, when i needed a note book for “map drawing”. ( A set of about 10 sheets of A-4 size…stitched ‘landscape’ mode 😂. Later version came with an inbuilt tracing paper, on which i ‘trace’ the contours of ‘phoren countries+ India) and transfer the impression to the white sheet for “drawing” the ‘map’ . If i colour and ‘mark’ the details well, i get 6/10. I was okay with even 4/10 🙏.



I look at desi scriptures similarly.

A map of spiritual bijness.

Either a guide, or a reference to know where i am. 

The sophistication in the scriptures are awesome 🙏. They function beyond the two basic features of guidance and reference, only for those who manage to ‘tap’ the human potential within with spiritual tools and practices 🙏

A cab driver ‘uses’ Google map to drive through heavy traffic, when it is A.I. enabled in ‘real' time 😓🙏🙏🙏


Scriptures needed to be synchronised with our genetic code ( using the latest technology  https://www.biocomputeinc.com/  )  seamlessly interwoven with quantum physics within us ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_fermion ) to….

Operationalize the chants in scriptures 🙏

( My experience: i was asked to chant a Maha mantra of 6 alphabets in Sanskrit non_stop, all my waking hours in a residential spiritual program 🙏. 4 days later a strange energy started dancing within me criss-cross! The teacher announced very impersonally “and you thought that this is just a STUPID-mantra? 😂”... I could relate his dialogue to my immediate preceding experience 🙏. I don't know about other co-participants there, in 1992. That damn thing still works, though I utter it very rarely, to mention it 😥🙏)



A map, yours,
psn( 2 Jul 2026)



Post script:

मेरा confidence level, after posting this blog can be easily described 😜


My son , when just into LKG class, drew a crude circle on a paper, and showed it to us saying "apple"( very confident about the shape)


My sister: " if you say_so, yes💪"( and to me :"our task in shaping up this kid starts here! Starting point". I smiled at her, undertaking a 20-year project for herself, in grooming that kid.

Not at all bad, i would say to her🙏)


More than I can ask for

 More than i can ask for



'वांच्या समाधिकम "


More than you are 'capable to ask for'( 4th verse of 'waves of beauty ')


1971.

A borrower_ticket to university library nagpur. 

They refused to part with an ancient volume"Original works of Shankaracharya ", translated from German 😜

No copies, if lost/misplaced. Brittle pages🙏😓


I was taken to the"chief librarian "

He : why do you want to read this book? A B.Com student, you are!"

Me: sir🙏. Precious information I am seeking. The best time to study B.Com syllabus is Brahma muhurat. This book might help me to find the significance of 4 to 6 am 🙏"

He: " looks interesting 🤔😃.... As a special case, you can glance through it in my next room. Even if I am not there, i will ask this assistant to provide you the book to read between 11 am and 4 pm only"


3+ months, it took to find the mention of 4 am to 6 am. 

But the efforts yielded "वांच्या समाधिकम "...😂


A funny incident.

Supports to our life energies

 Supports to our life energies


Our life energy and its intensity decides the quality of our life.

We can improve it further only if we become adept at ‘directing’ our energies at will, CONSCIOUSLY and judiciously. ( The skill is broadly termed as ‘prana-yaama(roughly translated as “energy-taming”) .

Eastern ‘fighting’ skills continue to awe us😂. The experts practice meditation, more than the ‘muscle building’! That ought to convince us🙏



TriSandhya is a phenomenon in nature! It supports our perception by balancing our inner/innate energies 🙏

A person, place or thing which supports similarly, are consciously 'sought'. A 'balanced' mind is bound to function better.  Hence the traditional practices like spending a few moments of silence at any place/time which adds an external support. A householder begins with 'balancing' oneself! The functional aspect is standing/sitting for a couple of moments before a fotu, a lamp, ....a place of regular meditation, the shade of a tree in a temple, etc.... ( An example seemingly_exaggerated, is the belief of regular visitors to Sabarimala, using their black_coloured wornout bedsheet when a little sick, during other times of the year😜. It worked for many, and thus a 'belief'! But the urge is not strong enough to 'deduce' the subtle factor in the phenomenon 🙏)




With practice, of a few minutes of quietude during any "sandhya" .....

We should be able to notice the distinction, while sitting at any  place, naturally or consciously consecrated/temple!( Such 'energy' places are supportive to a person/life)

When quite a few notice it repeatedly, too often ( the scientific element of repetitiousness) that object, a stone there is treated as swayambhoo/jyotirLingam etc 😜...


Today's people visit such swayambhoo, using only a belief!( The capacity to 'feel' that energy is too feeble within to 'sense' 😓



I preferred to strive towards sourcing it right within, though an arduous task 😂 ,( its like carrying a torchlight, an oxygen bottle wherever I go 😜) and can be used whenever & wherever I need. ( The hero in the movie “enter the dragon” when suddenly trapped in an iron cage, squats crosslegged and meditates instead of pumping his blood pressure higher due to 🫪… he reorganises his innate energies, to rejuvenate, with nothing ‘else’ to be done on his_outside now!)

Kavach (a protective Sheath)

 Kavach ( a protective Sheath)


Our present PM displayed too openly his ability to “trust” when he politely declined to ‘wear’ a bullet-proof jacket, even the vulnerability was great, when he said “then what for, are my security people?( I trust them, more/better  than a jacket “


When a security cover ( kavach/कवच) becomes subtler, the weapon turns harmless 😜😜😜😜

Vashishta offered his physical body to be ‘tested’ by a “siddha_ascetic” who demonstrated his own ability first ( the sword broke, when he slashed his own arm with the other slashing it holding a sword).

To the surprise of that ascetic, the sword just passed through the chest of Vashishta, twice, leaving the body unharmed 😜


Ever heard of the “assassination” of a mahaRishi?

Ever heard of a brahmin lady of the first 3 yugas being ‘raped/molested’??? ( Z security was sophisticated 🙏).

( There's a ‘story’ of a mad elephant sent to trample Gautama Buddha deliberately. It became ‘calm’ and sat down at his feet, after it reached His proximity 😂. A symbolic story, to evidence the “subtle Z category security cover, which those spiritually -evolved giants carried along 24/7, at Zero_cost 🙏😜)


Even Cyber security was sophisticated. Proof: the pontiff of puri mutt ( a Shankaracharya) had to meditate for some 7 years, to download Vedic maths ( akash_tatwa/nothingness, not just Cloud_computers)!


Our own hidden divinity is held “captive”( a prisoner, not as a security_cover) by our own Wide_spectrum of kavach, our kaarmic residues 😜🙏


A very small but significant difference in the ancients was, they devised the security cover into a cost_effective gadget/tool 🙏. ( Evidence abounds even today, if we care to look at few seekers walking barefoot, scantily clothed, in sub-zero temperature around the mountain ranges of Himalayas. Warm clothing are a burdensome nuisance for them 🙏. My own curiosity got satiated unwittingly, when i practiced a few spiritual tools for a higher purpose,🙏….the byproduct was, i didn't need the ‘normal’ protective clothing from small extremes of weather like hot_sun, torrential_rain, or winter cold suggesting warm_clothes🙏).


Spirituality happens to touch every aspect of material life ALSO 🙏…..and in a Pronounced way😜🙏


Securely yours,
psn(30 June, 2026)


Tail piece: This can be an entertainment for readers, but it is an experiential truth for me. Only in 1994 i came to know, that my being within is under a “E-category security cover” provided by my spiritual teacher, under a 400_year_old contract 🙏😂. The security is only from external threats. The stupidities i do inside me is my own responsibility 😥. It is still operative 👍


Promotion versus demotion

 Promotion versus demotion


😜


An odd creature i am 🙏


Demotion works better for me, when my pursuit is to merge with nothingness 🤣


Everyone knows about the taste of promotion ( owner's pride and neighbours envy…. goes well with promotion as well, like it used to describe a TV ad)


Demotion, when CONSCIOUSLY opted for, adds an external support to insulate oneself from the inherent tendency of ‘identification’ of the ‘being' within with something that only might ‘belong’ to it, but can never be that something itself 🙏.


Rigorous tests emerged when my potential & capabilities started expanding in terms of becoming useful to better_handling of material aspect of life, for myself and others 😥. It called for greater caution, to avoid getting identified with this accrued accumulation of capabilities, useful only for handling the life outside of me, and the thing that just belonged to me for this lifetime only🙏


Oh yes…. these additional capabilities were an incidental byproduct of my spiritual journey, and were never my purpose of the journey. In fact, 😜, the journey itself largely constituted the ‘distancing from everything that was not_me’ 🙏


I don't know how a reader is going to view this narrative 🙏… The question of any value addition to a reader arises only thereafter 🙏 


Disowning LY yours,

Curiosity & exploration

 Curiosity & exploration 


The subtle distinction between the 2 drivers.... 

Curiosity

Exploration 

....is easier noticeable in kids 🤣


( A professional 'teacher', who is unfortunately sincere in teaching, needs the 'use: of sense of Discrimination...to distinguish this, in her each student — for a response to be productive 🙏😭)



Otherwise, for mere salary, teacher simply 'parrots' the damn syllabus every year till retirement. Any value addition to the kids is quite incidental and unintentional 😔🙏


If adults are eager to ‘know' about their own levels of receptivity ( whether it is just a curiosity to know? Or an exploration to rediscover something?)....they can try an honest introspection at their recent sightseeing trips 😜

( I omit mentioning details of my eccentricities in each visit to strange spiritual places, mostly plundered remnants 🙏)



But a joke is okay 👍…..

A cousin of mine, a native of Kerala, and hence understandably ‘extra-proud’ of his grasp in mallu language, boasted of his in-depth grasp of the subtle theme of an old movie “nakhaKshatangal” ( newly released then!). He even described the newer dimensions he noticed incrementally during his second and third viewing of that movie 😂. One hour, he described the ‘subtle’ aspects 🙏. He paused.

I replied “ i saw the movie only ONCE 🙏”, and continued “i think i can relate the theme to the name of the movie, as a humble guess, since you didn't mention the justification of title of the movie 🙏”

And i proceeded with my version of what i saw😂…. Just 15 minutes, since I had to mention ONLY what he missed!

He felt a little awkward to openly say that i noticed even that, which he missed, but he blurted it in another sentence “ i must see that movie again now👍”( unable to ‘wait’, he traveled a 100 kms to a theatre where it was screened in its second run, morning show, after renewal of licence of 10 years, from censor Board.

Miracle men

 😂

Miracle men 
The rahasya/secret about their super power!

( I received a forward in WhatsApp.  https://youtu.be/jwdtna3KpbM?is=IvmWgGvojx6coJ6y )

Who within us, is 'seeking' to know?( About such people?)


Whether he is a fakir or Bhagwan?


Any 'miracle' performer becomes popular, much faster than a humble saintly person who quietly minds his own bijness 🙏 


If the 'miracles' are just for show, people seek only entertainment.

If the miracle gives solutions to people, they become 'devotees' 

If miracles cause harm, people hate the person, fear him, and become a slave too 😓



That simple fellow going through all the same/similar hurdles of life, and yet remains undisturbed, joyous, emotionally stable, intellectually sharp, highly receptive,responsive etc impresses 'rare few' around 😜. Such rare few seek_to_know the rahasya/secret of this ever_joyous guy. 



Miracles are those which eludes our grasp🙏

( A tribal boy from deep african jungle regards even me as a miracle -man, if I touch a wall and a bulb lights_up at the ceiling 😜. Truth is, i lack the basic knowledge when a light refuses to switch on? Wiring, fused bulb or power trip? 🤔)


Human body is a miracle gadget🙏

It can be turned into a below_animal level of indulgence or can be turned to transcend nature🙏 ( personal choice......what i do with my body😓)


With rigorous training and practices ( tapas, austerity) this body can become a conduit for receiving+ transmitting subtle energies. Such potential was known as siddhis 🙏. The quality of 'mind' is exclusive to such capabilities.


Body can also become a conduit 'naturally' 😜, in rare/stray/freak cases. ( Karmic residues of far_past). How is the extra/super 'powers' going to be used? The quality of mind decides😜..


The people around are also 'driven' by their own mind's quality 🙏. ( Rare few bother to 'free' themselves/spirit/atma/whatever, from the clutches of own mind🙏. )


Somehow, I wasn't interested or attracted towards any super_powers, or the performers thereof 🙏....  Instead, i was keen to make the 'best possible use' of this gadget i got for 'free' and to strive to evolve to my_best, till my last breath. Let the 'giver' of this gadget decide/judge about my performance 🙏.  As i grew up, i discovered that i can do something with my body, then something/somebody taught me, i can tame even my mind, using my body&breath ( mind is connected to the 2) 😜...   Good enough 🙏 👍.   Thus, value_addition became a thing I ended up seeking after😜😂... It stayed and even stabilised my seeking to refine myself 🙏. 


Miraculously yours,

Reincarnation of Rama

 100% fiction 🙏

Assuming that Rama was indeed real(assumption is only to 'please' sceptics 😭)

And, Rama (same character, but present version of aam_aadmi) is around 20 years of age today(2026).

Rama_2026 will live and go unnoticed 😜

No one will vote for him. Deposit lost as an MLA/MP ( even his own family won't vote. They vote for only freebies. Any accidentally honest family fellow will conclude "misfit in today's world. No use wasting my honest vote).

We aam Aadmi are different from aam Aadmi of "RaamRajya"( please see, raamRajya was not about Sri Rama, it was about "rajya", the citizens of tretaYug. Logic 🙏)

We are highly tolerant to....
1. Wide spread corruption 
2. Dishonest within+outside family 
3. Mutual indifference 
4. Lack of empathy 
5. Materialism upto 99.99%
6. Display of arrogance of money and it's related power.
7. Disuse of sense of Discrimination 😜 ( to the extent that we don't know what it really means🙄)

8) etcetera ( by now, we know what else)

Rama_2026 leans too heavily on outside support ( 100% genuine as 'aam aadmi' and therefore doesn't 'carry' super_powers like other Avatars 😭).

Meanwhile, those divine guys( somewhere up there) might have perhaps thought "let the aam aadmi do what they like, forsaking the basic_human_values. Anyway 'in the scheme of things'  self_destruction is a pucca embedded software 👍. Those few who wake up despite the negatives all around, will find their liberation too, clandestinely 😜"

( One guy trying to uplift Bharat is a loner in several subtle ways🙏. Trust deficit automatically occupies where negative emotions abound. Love can only feign, not spread 🙏

A tribute to my teacher

 I do not ( rather "should not") expect a reader to find any value addition from this one blog 🙏


Nothing prevents a reader to find anything 'worthwhile' in it.


I felt it appropriate to place a gratitude at the feet of my teacher, as a 'gesture' also, since this blog allows me such a freedom 🙏 ( my gratitude to the organization "blogger.com")


Any genuine seeker on a spiritual path, finds numerous questions surging from within 😜.

In my case, I CONSCIOUSLY decided to wait patiently till the teacher decides to answer them, unasked 😂.

I did ask one question 🙏 ( it was about my disinclination to ask any question 😥).

I took every care possible by me, to present the question in strict conformity with verse 110 of chapter 2, in the Manusmriti 🙏 ( the care was owing to the reverence I felt for my teacher, despite his flexibility in "ask me any nonsensical question 👍" )

My question: "why is it that my urge to articulate a question dies by the time I reach your proximity? I fail to ask! 🤔"

His reply is too sacred for me to CopyPaste it here🙏( it is nothing secret, private, personal, confidential or anything like that.... Just sacred, due to its sanctity😂). I didn't have to ask any question to him thereafter 🙏.

Unquestioningly yours,
( this time, "yours" includes my teacher 😜) psn(25 June, 2026)

Stubbornity, firmness, and flexibility

 Stubbornity, firmness, and flexibility 


One blessing in disguise is that my blogs are seldom taken too intensely.( Only one out my 1000+ blogs ‘caused’ a rare and one of the coveted states of spiritual experience. Neither me or that reader can claim any ’credit’. Closest explanation is, like a huge spill at a petrol bunk, with the air super_soaked with the oil, waiting for a spark from a humble matchstick at the edge of the ‘area’ 😜)



My spiritual teacher is a “super” example for me, to learn the ‘basics’ of life 🙏 

It took 3 decades for me to even understand his extra_flexibility in handling ‘me’ as his own_commitment towards the disciple decided upon by_him.  Otherwise, his_flexibility towards many others was like God's own flexibility towards humans😜(“do whatever nonsense you like for a million lifetimes 👍.  Eventually, you will seek Me”). My teacher's firmness at its subtlest should have been ‘the’ reason for his flexibility unto me! 😂.  



Becoming aware of one's own stubbornity is very basic to living meaningfully 🙏. And this awareness leans too heavily upon the need of understanding ”firmness” with utter clarity.

We relax our stubbornity under great stress, mental tension, anxiety, fear etc😂. Perhaps, anger is the only negative emotion that adds to own stubbornity 🙏


I leave it at that …. 😜

( I thank my flexibility, which is a gift from my firmness about the reasons thereof 🙏)


Firmly and flexibly yours,

psn(25 June, 2026)



Post script:  I can confess here! I haven't been able to adhere to the 110th verse of chapter 2, of Manusmriti, despite decades of consistent efforts 🙏.  My own stubbornity is awaiting for a clarity about the need to adhere to it effortlessly 🙏. Till then, my firmness is my stubbornity in disguise 😭, and I am painfully aware of this self_deception 😜

Breath

 Breath


My spiritual teacher narrated a brief story during my first time to a spiritual program, (closest word for its sanskrit name is “synthesis”).


Story:

Gautama Buddha had a very close childhood friend.  A commitment to such friendship is unconditional+ without expectations 🙏.

Buddha ‘wished’ that this friend should benefit from the spiritual wealth Gautama possessed. But that friend used to procrastinate every time when Gautama passes by the shop of that friend, saying “too busy with my bijness, next time you visit 👍”

Years passed. That ‘next time ‘ never came 😂.

News spread that Buddha is going to breathe his_last soon.

Friend was shocked! He rushed to see Buddha 🙏.


Disciples prevented him initially “nobody can disturb his peaceful departure 🙏”

Friend implored “my kid age friend. Just 5 seconds🙏, last_chance for me😭”

Friend was allowed.


Buddha was lying eyes closed. No movement.

Friend: “Hey, Siddharth ... .I am here. I apologise having neglected you all along 🙏. Just tell me one thing. How to get_you after you are gone???”

Gautama opened his eyes, looked into the eyes of his friend and said “watch your breath”. Eyes closed thereafter 🙏 



It is said, these words “watch your breath” became one of the most_powerful spiritual_tool given by Buddha 🙏 ( it needs the ‘key words’ for it to function….😜. Only a Guru can ‘initiate’ a deserving disciple to use those ‘key words' 🙏. A chant!



( Even otherwise, plain breath_awareness can work….but only according to the ‘fuel of intensity ‘ of a seeker 😜)



I got initiated as well 👍 🙏 🙏 🙏

We are basically entertainment seekers

 We are basically entertainment seekers



This blog might disappoint 🙏


Readers are advised to exercise caution, similar to reading a ‘notice' for AGM of a corporation, without any ‘explanatory notes’ 😜…  



This blog has many loose ends 🙏



In 1970 or so, I was surprised to see a movie being released in morning show 😳


After seeing the movie, i got the answer 👍 ( dosage of entertainment is below the minimum requirement of masses 😕)


( Chandramohan jain whispered his question, not shouted to the speaker, 🙏. He knew the 'nature' of audience 🙏. )


Imagine Rajnikant/Amitabh ( even devAnand ) replicating the boxing/wrestling world championship style against villain 😜. Audience will be bored to death.


I was 'eagerly' awaited by my cousins in Kerala during summer holidays. Even after 15 days' stay with each gang, they request 'stay one more week 🙏'. ( Now, it is 2 decades since I visited them. They don't 'miss' me 🙏. Instead, they feel relieved 😜. I don't entertain 😭, of late 😥).


Remove the frills from crowd_rituals and improve the bare_vedic part, and see if people 'attend' with the same number? 😅 (The frills obscured the purpose of attendance itself😭🙏🙏🙏)


Exceptions are everywhere and in everything 👍. ( Jaggi's third program is a total contrast to the first basic yoga programs, in terms of entertainment. 😅.... Still, a good number come. सिर्फ़, the 'good' in the number is from the 'large' of 8 basic program of 10 places😥🙏). 


Seminars are popular today, only because the organisers sacrificed the intrinsic meaning of the word 'semen' in the adapted_concept behind selection of the audience 🙏. The main_purpose of 'seminar' is irrelevant now👍


Patanjali’s yoga sutras( the book) is rarely read. Among the readers very rarely understood. Within those who understood, very few practiced it 😥. It is not popular, but antique, and therefore survives today. The ‘preservation’ part is owing to earliest readers who attributed reverence by themselves_becoming a product of that monumental book🙏. Today it is a most boring book for today's minds, in its bare form without any explanation 🙏

A question to WhatsApp University

 A question to WhatsApp University 



Now that this university churns out billions of unsolicited spiritual advices…. 🙏



I thought it's worth asking a humble question 🙏


Can WhatsApp University provide me the transcript of non_verbal COMMUNICATION received by Mr Paul Brunton, when he visited Sri Bhagwan Ramana maharishi, the second time?


Paul Brunton is the same one who authored the book “Search in secret India”.

The occasion called second visit is described in that book itself 😜 ( A.I. search with intelligent key words can yield info very quickly)



Easier question if this one irritated a reader🙏


A very famous verse. 

“sruthi smrithi purAnAnAm Alayam karunAlayam |

namAmi bhagavadh pAdha shankaram lOka shankaram “


Question: who said/wrote this???( I am ain't ‘seeking’ any answer😜…  By fluke, my antenna worked 👍)

Dependance

 Dependance 


My PM, Modi has openly declared “dear citizens, i depend on you during my entire term of each 5 years, when you elect me🙏”

( Other scam netas depend on me….only on the day of voting 😜)


I like to respond via communication also, apart from performance of my citizen_Dharma 🙏. But i failed miserably in reaching him. The intermediaries aren't responsive enough, every time. I have abandoned the idea of reaching my PM, at least till the structure ( interface) is healthy 🙏( to convince a sceptical reader, shall i quote an instance where, i failed in my 6_years of persistence to return the freebie amount credited in my family account? 🙏. It was just an error, in feeding the rightful recipients account number 🙏. But, who else but me can point it out? Public money. )


Kings of the ancient Bharat adhered to a tradition: travel INCOGNITO through the streets of their kingdom 🙏. Even the most_timid citizens get ‘reached’ by_the_king🙏. Corrupt intermediaries face a threat 😜. King ‘depends’ on the aspirations of common man 🙏



A mom depends on her baby, to know how/where/when to give her care.

If parents misunderstood the independence of earning/married children, this “care” for adult children becomes a big nuisance 🤣 


A joke: 3 kids excitedly reported to their teacher “ M’am, we HELPED an old woman to cross the street today👍. Our compulsory homework of ‘do a good deed today’ is a completed Assignment 🙏”

Teacher: “ Good!”. As an after thought, teacher asked the 3 kids “why did it NEED 3 of you to help her cross the street?”

3 kids : “ because, she NEVER needed to cross the street, and we HAD to somehow do a good_deed 😥😥😥”


A doctor depends on the patient's body’s willingness to accept the medicine 🙏. We ‘talk’ only about our dependance on a doctor's honesty+ skill 😓



A spiritual teacher has a difficulty 🙏.  He looks for dependance of a disciple, based on the receptivity of the disciple and not the need/wish/willingness of the disciple 😥. That's why a Guru decides, not the disciple about tutelage 😜. And, once a Guru decides, the disciple is choiceless 🙏



Godji, (if really an existing entity), didn't take any risk 🤣. He planted a piece of himself in us, and obviated his dependance on our uprighteousness to manage his bijness 😜. 



Dependantly yours,

No, a tumor cannot survive on its own without a host. Cancer cells are parasitic; they do not have the complex biological systems required to independently extract nutrients, regulate temperature, or expel waste. If the host dies, the tumor cells quickly perish as well.


Why Tumors Cannot Survive 


IndependentlyReliance on Blood Supply: Tumors cannot create their own circulatory systems from scratch. They rely heavily on hijacking the host's existing blood vessels (a process called angiogenesis) to pump vital oxygen and glucose to the tumor.Energy 


Needs: Cancer cells have a voracious appetite. When removed from the host's tissue and deprived of a steady stream of nutrients, they generally die within minutes to hours.


Extracellular Matrix: Like all human cells, tumor cells need a specific, stable environment (temperature, pH levels, chemical balances) that only the host body provides.





The Only Exception: Laboratory CulturesThe only way a tumor can "survive" outside of a living host is in a specialized laboratory setting. Scientists can extract cancer cells and place them in petri dishes containing a nutrient-rich chemical "culture medium."While these cells can multiply and "live" indefinitely in a lab (the most famous example being the HeLa cell line taken in 1951), they still require constant human maintenance, precise temperatures, and daily feeding to stay alive

UnQuote.


So, a ‘healthy' body simply shows a placard at its door to the tumour “No food, we are closed for today. Sorry for the inconveniences 🙏”  And the virus keeps checking for food daily 😜….




Only when it comes to the tumour called FEAR ( in our minds), we don't know how to stop supplying it with its ‘feed’ .  It takes different shapes to keep its supply_chain on👍. Call it desire, anger, hatred or resistance 🙏


( My own conviction: if I can manage to avoid fear in all its forms, I am set_free 😜)


Fearfully yours,

Definition

 Definition 


(x-a) (x-b)

My algebra Teacher had taught this .

I even got good marks in the examination reproducing what was taught .


But as a kid the practical application in normal mathematics came to me only-through a shortcut I learn’t in Vedic maths.


Example:

978 x 990

written as (1000-22)(1000-10)

the short cut doesn’t bother to explain the definition/formula. It simply says “do this mentally, and you get the answer)

I do this:

Step-1: 978 minus 10 (or 990 minus 22, whichever is easier)

I get 968000 (3 zeroes I am ‘asked to add’, no questions)

Step 2 : -22 x -10 , I get = 220

step 3: I add 220 to 968000

answer is = 968220

(Rules are framed under an enacted law, for functionality. Nothing new!)


My physics teacher taught 4 concepts related to water.

Not ‘how to combine and use the 4’ 

Later, I saw water ‘climbing’ on its own at 2 historical places (Paan-chakki & Golkonda fort).


Armed with these 2 (school physics, and visuals of 2 historical places), I resisted paying bribe to the water-Lineman, when I got a house constructed decades ago!

In those days, water was from a huge tank situated far away, catering a very large area of houses, and by the time it reaches my house at the outer edge, the pressure is inadequate to flow out of my tap, 1.5 feet above ground level.

I attempted to combine the 4 concepts(4 chapters, hydroEngr., related), and guidance from visuals of kid-age visit to the 2 historical places. 

I could get water for my domestic needs (without infringing the rules of water-supply, without tapping from underground, illegally )

but the ‘perfection’ in reaching optimal use of the 4 concepts, plus the ancient skills of Bharat, took me 3 decades to ‘reach’.



Moksha/salvation is yet another purpose of life for few at least.

Definitions abound. 

Functional application, to reach that state, attain that state aren’t much sought-after. Because, this activity has no relevance in managing the material aspect of life. 

I was on the look out for tools & techniques, not the definitions, or meaning of salvation (a guru said, “when you attain... anyway you will know it!”. I have reasons to trust him)

Unlike simple task of learning the use of algebra/physics, I had to pour out myself, to learn the subtleties involved in the time-tested tools.... 

one good thing is, there are footholds on the pathless path of spirituality (moksha). Once we plant our feet firmly on any of those footholds, chances of slipping down further is very remote.

ShringaGiri

 ShringaGiri


A rishi named Shringa is said to have performed penance on that mountain. The mountain got a label 😜…. Shringa’s Giri/hill.


It didn't stop with that…..😭


The very place acquired certain qualities too. It remained undiscovered, till a ‘visionary’ sighted these qualities 😂

Aadi shankara was that person. He even decided to be charitable about mentioning his discovery 🙏. Those life forms, which normally perform ONLY the functions embedded in them ( technical name is PraVrutti…. or, in our ‘way’ of understanding “embedded software”) happened to TRANSCEND this ‘nature' in them and performed a much superior function. 2 examples ( noticed by AadiShankara & depicted in a stone as a picture) is a vulture sparing the life of its prey/food, a snake, and a snake sparing a frog, and instead , both protecting their prey 😜. Sherlock Holmes used to ‘deduce’ . AadiShankara didn't have to, since he was capable of experiencing the subtle energy which caused this Transformation 🙏. He decided to institutionalise this quality for the benefit of mankind. A mutt, and a lineage of pontiffs, to this day, came into being, known as Sringeri Mutt. Assignment to the pontiffs is simple ( not quite easy 😜) : to propagate the highest of the 4 declaratory truths, “aham brahma asmi “... ( Tools required for the task, would be a choice according to ever-changing situations). Any visionary can verify the credibility of the place, with sufficient capabilities of perception and sense of Discrimination 🙏. ( A symbolic story to illustrate this effect of a ‘place’ like this is ‘The judgement throne of Vikramaditya “ where a cowherd boy happened to sit on a mound of mud, and astounded others by his unbelievable sense of Juris_Prudence, and later a king decided to dig that mound, to discover that throne_of_vikramaditya🙏.)


The concept of a place getting energised in a subtle level is available in the science of Temple_consecration 🙏. 


( Imagine my surprise, when a once_omitted_paternal uncle wrote an email to me “do you know, the sringeri pontiff, is our KulaGuru 👍”, in response my email about my visit to Sringeri, for a family_ritual !!! 😜… That, to me, has a new message “never should I indulge in exploiting the commitment of the ‘lineage’ of the pontiffs, no matter if the price i have to pay is Even_my_salvation🙏🙏🙏”)

Base and steadfastness

 Base & steadfastness


“അവനവൻ ആയിട്ട് ഒരു നിലയും നിശ്ചയവും വേണം”


I asked A.I.( Google)😂

Quote:

ജീവിതത്തിൽ ആത്മാഭിമാനത്തോടെ ജീവിക്കാനും, സ്വന്തം കാര്യങ്ങളിൽ വ്യക്തമായ കാഴ്ചപ്പാട് ഉണ്ടായിരിക്കേണ്ടതിൻ്റെ ആവശ്യകതയെക്കുറിച്ചാണ് ഈ പ്രയോഗം സൂചിപ്പിക്കുന്നത്.

UnQuote 



Perfect! 👍 


In normal desi English now 🙏


My grandmother.

A university by herself. Reason : got her ‘basics'(base) from her traditional lineage and steadfast from this adage🙏

But she was illiterate 😥

She can ONLY chant what Worked for her 😓


Her eight kids couldn't find a reason (situation) to quote this punchline 😂.



A translation looks like this : For oneself, each has to have a base, and the steadfastness ( to stay on that base)


 Such brevity, when it packs too many life_concepts, presents a huge task in finding its functionality, or functional_software to be applied in a routine life 🙏 


I too heard this punchline from her as an advice, in response to my reporting to her, my failure in having missed something very_relevant to me, when i yielded to some other attraction which diverted me away!😓. I could understand ONLY THE CONTEXTUAL relevance of this adage at that kid_age. And i did keep in mind, the advice for my use in SIMILAR situations 🙏



But now, the subtle sense in it is getting revealed and the value/worth of it seems UNIMAGINABLY deep 🙏🙏🙏. ( For example, if the ‘karma’ theory is acceptable as a postulate at least, for an extremely sceptical mind, for a while 😜…..then, applying this adage as a thumb rule, …

Is it not important for a life_form to recognise its ‘base’/നില & remain steadfast/നിശ്ചയം to the PURPOSE OF THAT BIRTH with that PARTICULAR form of body???? ( newer desires, chasing of those desires, creating more complications, inviting more karma’s…. warranted???🤔)


Once the base is familiar, and resolve/നിശ്ചയം is steadfast, we just dissolve that set of Prarabhdha karma and go👍. The acquired SKILL of base+ steadfast comes very handy in the next form-of-birth, with next set of prarabhdha karma, carved out of Sanchita karma( our private Godown of karmas😜)

NCC: why do we see things?

 NCC: why do we see things?



This question is what fascinated me more than the lesson in my school NCC 🙏

( How to ask oneself, so as to invoke deeper perception, use sense of Discrimination?..... was the derivation gifted by my fascination)



Armed forces are trained to preserve their ‘life’ during a war🙏. It is an AWESOME design, which substitutes for the unquestioned sense of obedience ingrained in the same training 😂.

To me, the army training seemed to mimic the style of imparting education in our ancient gurukul—-allow the intellect to function, while the negative emotions within, trying to ask questions which are logically fallacious are bridled, till the intellect reviews them🙏🙏🙏



The answer to the question is simple ( and forms a part of the chapter “camouflage & concealment" as a defense🙏)

6 sisters and 1 mother ( easy to remember 😜)

Army examines thoroughly, the ‘Basics of Life’ thoroughly 🙏 ( purpose is survival)

Spirituality, as i saw it,  also looks at ‘Basics of Life' ( purpose is, ultimate liberation, and therefore, the looking/examining is far_deeper 😜. The body gets prepared for serving armed forces as well 👍… defying comfort zone 😜)

Why should I silence my mind?(Meditative state)

Why should I silence my mind?(Meditative state)



Only a deep examination of 'mind' can reveal it's true nature 🙏


Unless that nature of the mind is clear enough, no way to think of attempting to silence it consciously 🙏 ( the very low rate of successful meditative state owes to this 😌..…. )


Accidentally, mind becomes still to everyone 🙏. Its value goes unnoticed. Easy example is, mind is non_functional during deep sleep. The advantage is, we feel 'clear' bright and refreshed after waking up in the morning 😜. 

By night, the brain is damn tired. Mind churns out stupid, disconnected scenes which we call dreams ( brain wakes up partially, when dreams are fearsome 🤣. Oh!😥, it was just a dream😜🙏, says the brain .... Otherwise mind is left to dream .  Science labels it as sub_conscious mind🙏... Whereas, we don't need a label 'subconcious' for a brain, a physical organ.




Why should we silence the mind when awake????😡😡😡😡

( I won't attempt to vocalise my answer🙏... Try to find it out only if you are intense enough to know😜....  Experience is enough to convince us)



Mind is a very powerful+ extremely useful tool 🙏, only when tamed, harnessed

Side effects of true friendship

 Side effects of true friendship 



Just a humorous note 🙏

( Not a preachy stuff intended)


I used to stay alone in a small room in Maharashtra ( a small town) for 9 years.

Being a bachelor then, the infrastructure for cooking was bare minimum. 


Ironically, about 8 of my close friends ‘demand’  for a lunch, prepared by me. A very cumbersome task with just a small kerosene stove and two vessels 😓. Cook in installments, pour the dish onto a corner of a large plate, heaped, to have space for the next 3 installments!


Only one fellow ‘bothered’ to come an hour early, to help me😥


The pleasure i derive lasts only for 15 minutes, watching them pounce upon the food to gobble it , whereas my labour is for 2½ hours preceding it 😓



I didn't mind the effort.


6 of them were very rich. Watching them ‘adjusting’ with gross inadequacies of space, cutlery, etc… so effortlessly was a source of amazement for me, afresh each time 😳


Once, they mocked at a fellow. I didn't know that he was so_fussy at his home while dining🙏😥. They said “ look at this fellow! At home, he hurls a glass tumbler of water,  to pieces, if a water drop is seen sticking to the upper edge of its inner side, and here, he quietly pecks at food from a inside of pressure cooker’s lid, parking only ½ of his bottom on a shared steel chair, happily licking his fingers to swallow the last bit of food 😜”( this guy is the youngest child with 5 sisters elder to him. Too pampered. 

I was amazed at the total contrast in him, when he eats in my room, thrice in every 2 months! 


Stubborn, rigid and resistance_filled fellow, displaying unusual flexibility, just to be a ‘part’ of a gang of friends, and to soak into the joyousness of an ambience of ‘unconditional togetherness’ !!!🙏😥😥😳😳😳


These visuals served “in good stead” 15 years later, during a residential spiritual program 😜…  i just had to ‘tap’ the innate+latent flexibility in me🙏. The discipline of the structured program, could cause no ‘discomfort’ to me. I just looked at spiritual bijness as a ‘dear friend’ who can't afford a comfort zone 🙏. His(spirituality personified) friendship is all that mattered for me 🙏

Kerala towel

 Kerala towel 


A traditional kind of bath towel.

Intentionally woven with coarse/loosely_spun 100% cotton yarn.

Torn but still preferred 😜, instead of a new one .

Best use is when it is carefully "hand-washed". When it is still dazzling white, despite a daily use since 6 months ( doesn't last longer), the health+ spiritual benefits are immense and maximised 🙏

Simple advantage is, it absorbs water very well ( residual moisture at the base of the hair of a densely- haired person's skull, might seep into the skin, and cause common cold, headache etc.).


For the spiritual advantage, i leave it to the readers to deduce it from a silly_question :  a bath towel gets soiled, after using it to wipe off the water after bath. After a bath, we are supposed to be 'clean' 🙏 Then, why should the towel get soiled? It can get wet👍, but why the dirt, needing a washing, instead of just squeeze+dry???


Washing your own towel was an ancient practice. The loose weave helps dislodgement of dirt wedged between the weave of the towel. Ancients were too fussy 😥 ( probably for a spiritual reason) about the uses of this traditional towel 😥 ...  A fresh unstitched bit of this towel is preferred for quenching the soul's thirst for the first ten days after the death of a desi guy! The towel is dipped in a bowl of water, ends gathered and twisted anticlockwise, with the left hand holding the lower end, twisting anticlockwise, to direct the drip on to a piece of rock, into which the departed pret_atma is invoked.  Very sophisticated and not perceivable through the 5 sense organs, to understand and accept the "sense" in doing this 😥...  


Bits of dead skin, sticking to our skin are a bit wet and easier to be 'wiped' off, with a coarse, loosely spun+woven cloth. Hygienic benefit is, pores of the skin open up when cleaned. The sensitivity of the skin at very subtle levels is enhanced by the scrubbing of skin during bath, and the efficacy of this towel during the wiping_dry of skin and head after bath. The freshness of skin and hair enhance the receptivity of our "antenna" if... receptivity seems to really matter when inside a temple 🙏


Kerala temples have "managed" to retain the 'science' in the best benefits of a temple, through its unique "rules" imposed on the visitors of those temples. The taantrik style of propitiation has a significant role in affording a keen visitor, to relate the traditional rituals with tenable and modern scientific way of reasoning 🙏


Clearly yours,

Agastya

 Agastya 


One of the stories about this sage, which made a very deep impression on me , is about his unintended conflict with an ascetic who did intense tapas( austerities) to acquire a great siddhi.



When traveling down south of India, Agastya became too popular and very soon among people of tamilnadu.

A local ascetic grew jealous of this popularity, overtaking his own popularity!


This ascetic decided to settle the issue of ‘who is greater, me or Agastya?’

He sought an audience with Agastya and challenged him to compete with the ascetic.


Initially, Agastya conceded defeat with all humility, being not interested in any competition.

But that ascetic won't leave it. Popularity of Agastya was unbearable 😥

Ultimately, the ascetic himself suggested a very simple and primitive siddhi as a test of greatness, thinking that ‘this fellow isn't going to win over even this👍’


That ascetic handed a sword to Agastya and asked him to slash the arm of the ascetic. Agastya refused saying “i don't indulge in such crude and gross acts of violence”

Then that acetic uses the sword on his own arm, holding the sword in the other. The sword broke!!! Ascetic’s arm withstood the blow of the sword!!!🙂

Now the ascetic asked Agastya to demonstrate the same feat. Agastya replied “🙏 I cannot inflict an injury on myself. You may do it👍…and, since I am the nuisance to you, slash the sword across my chest_itself, right to left diagonal, so that I cease to be, conclusively. The audience is witness to the event and will absolve you of any related_crime allegations “

Ascetic gave a powerful blow with the sword across Agastya. The sword passed through, smoothly without leaving any cut or injury.

Ascetic: “ 😳😳😳 “ surprised! 

Agastya: now, do it the other way “ X “ to make it doubly_sure 🙏

Still no injury! Sword unspoiled as well 😜


Agastya broke the silence: “see, the spiritual practices are about becoming more and more subtle (sookshma)and not about becoming more gross( jadam) than the steel_blade of that sword, to put up a stronger Resistance 🙏”


Needless to add, that ascetic joined the gang of devotees of Agastya 🙏



(My ‘take’ for my own personal use, nothing to do with others ….  Siddhis however super human powers they yield, do not purify the mind, by themselves. Unless there is purity( ‘innocence’ with full awareness, moksha is a distant_dream🙏. Remaining as a non_entity/नाचीज़, and yet accomplishing the minds purity, to me, is what matters most 😜. I use this story, for my personal evolvement, even if it was a fiction👍… my teacher had warned “while i will be doing my best, to plug any ‘super powers creeping into you, a few capabilities are inevitable, due to the nature of spiritual practices you do with me🙏, please exercise caution+self-restraint, in misuse or abusing them! Best option is to ignore those siddhis😌)

Confronting strangers

 Confronting strangers


A few centuries ago, we didn't confront many “strangers” on a daily basis.


Today, the bulk of them are strangers to us.


Initially, I was persuaded to look at “how I confront a stranger”....  Later, as a grownup I happened to also add “how might he_be_confronting me” 😜


Nothing worthwhile to talk about me😓🙏( how much i evolved into my own tools and techniques of how i confront)



The first thought of ours( we, I mean 🙏) might be “who is he?”( Profile & biodata related).

Next thought, in most cases would be “how best am I going to ‘defend’ myself from him”( as a society, are we not nurturing mutual mistrust? 😜)

The costly_joke is, an Airhostess keeps her job only by forcing_herself to flash  a plastic _smile on all the strangers boarding a plane. Needless to add, she needs to ‘relax’ first, to defuse the tension built-up by 300+ stubborn smiles, in her uniform 😭🙏




Centuries ago that ‘next thought’, ( owing to the trust levels in those days) might have been “how do I become receptive to any ‘possible’ value addition from him/her?”

If the first thought had said “he is so_and_so, and it's my duty to offer some kind of Value addition to him” then, that other fellow too adjusts oneself accordingly 🙏


I leave it to the readers to use their sense_of Discrimination and visualise the ‘related’ consequences and its ramifications caused due to the repetitive thought processes 🙏( i don't wish to drag the length of this blog too much)



The_joke.

Highly evolved persons( call them as “enlightened” fellows , if you wish🙏), avoid mutual confrontation, unless their joint effort is indispensable, to “add value” to any other/s in the vicinity 🙏.

These guys OBVIATE that ‘first’ thought itself 😜 ( “Who is this?”). They ‘know' merely by looking at the other, everything that is worth_knowing 🙏, and that's what enlightenment is also_about 🤣

Procrastination

 Procrastination 


A Concept which is perhaps only a consequence of several concepts and their functionality like, laziness, lethargy, and confidence etc….


Incidentally Bharat is a land which happens to inadvertently nature and nourish this procrastination…..😂 ( probably because this land is highly cultivable abundant in nature and mineral resources which induces a laziness due to the ease of living 😓)


“आज करे सो कल करो,

कल करे सो परसों,

 इतनी भी क्या जल्दी है 

हमें काम करना है बरसों”!!!! (A Humorous parody of a famous proverb, probably coined by a person who was observing very closely the inbuilt laziness in the government employees!)



Story for those who are genuinely King about the moral responsibility of something called parenting. 

( It would be good to narrate the story to the kids when they manifest clear signs of laziness creeping into them before it becomes a trait called procrastination🙏😓. Do add frills necessary to shoot the customised mind set of a kid so that the kid's attention is adequately attracted into the story and the concept there in) 


Here, a  useful proverb was “procrastination is the thief of time” ( “was” I said, because, this adage isn't popular in the WhatsApp University 😜)


Story in brief: 

A mother bird, told it's fledgelings “dear children our nest is in the middle of a field which is the ripe enough for harvesting. Please try to listen to what the farmer is saying about harvesting and tell me in the evening.”

( If harvesting is done at the right time, the tonnage is maximum, by weight, and sale proceeds of grain is best. Any delay causes the seeds or the grains to become a little dry and thereby the weight of the grains reduce while selling. Here,  procrastination causes loss of income. )


Day 1, fledgelings: mom, today the farmer was telling himself” tomorrow I should harvest”

Mom bird : okay we still have time 👍


Day 2

Kids : farmer said “tomorrow I shall ask other farmers to help me in harvesting”

Mom bird : okay we still have time 👍”



Day 3

Kids : farmer said, “others are not cooperating I shall ask my relatives after all they are relatives and should help”

Mom bird : okay we still have time 👍


Day 4

Kids : mom, the farmer murmured: “ can't delay harvesting any longer 🙏😭… tomorrow, i am going to do it MYSELF, come_what_may…. With or without any help from anyone else “

Mom bird : “ okay kids….time to abandon this home of ours! 😂. That farmer now really means “bijness”. I have readied a new nest during the last 3 days 👍

Story over.



Real incident:

I became ‘fond’ of a very close friend. This fondness, is not just because he was good to me or he was helpful to me or any such reason! 

I am fond of honesty. And he was honest to the core. With me especially he was inside and outside same! So I was fond of him. He decided to trust me to the core 🙏


Like anybody else he was also afflicted by the desi bug called procrastination. 

He once summed up my patience and linked it with his procrastination “ dear friend, your tons of patience with me is at once, a double pronged item 😥. A blessing as well as a weapon used by me against myself 🙏.

You keep assisting me with your precious spiritual experience, very patiently, despite my laziness, lethargy and confidence that you_are_always available for me. And my inherent laziness causes me to procrastinate. Someday it is going to be too late for me 😥”


Sadly, he is no more 🙏 


Spiritual bijness:

Procrastination, necessitates rebirth for endless lifetimes till we decide not to delay spiritual business anymore! ( Technically,  rebirths are due to the karmik residues as per the books of accounts of karmaPhalaDatha, an entity incharge of maintenance of cosmic balance, in sync with unfulfilled desires, and negativity of our far_past).

A sleeping face

 A sleeping face


The last few thoughts just before sleep overpowers us, gets imprinted on the “face” and is retained, as a muscular response to the nature of our thoughts….  I may be wrong 👍



But, until i know why I am wrong, i continue to hold this, as a postulate only! 😥 ( Not a theory, concept, or a law 😜). 


A kid upto the age of 5, has a charming/pleasing face when we look at a sleeping kid 😜. Peaceful mind. Not an “asking” mind…..that_simple!


A corpse, when we look at the face, we notice that our mind forms an opinion ( died peacefully, struggled during death, was very sorrowful/sad, etc ). Death is a long sleep 🙏


Probably, the ancients looked at the “pattern” of shift in a kids face… the pleasing, calm, peaceful face till the age of 5, begins to turn a ‘little’ grim, stiff, etc more after 2 more years, 7th year. Especially, when that kid falls asleep too quickly, the facial muscles ‘display’ the fatigued brain, incessantly engaged by the endless volley of logical questions required to be processed by the brain 😜. Calories get burn up by the brain. It “seeks” rest!😥. The mind is not ‘exactly’ nodding an okay 👍. And, somewhere, the body being over-taxed, due to the days kid_age activity, decides to “call it a day” 😂.  An inattentive mom might exclaim “hey! This kid slept off even without its dinner! 😳😳”



Spiritual aspect: Watchful elders, evolved into Conscious_use of their ‘sense of Discrimination'....might have thought ‘its time to INITIATE this kid into the skills of how_to_tame a mind!👍’( rituals get a name like ‘upaNayanam’/spare eyes 😜).


The untamed hyper_active mind leaves a tell_tale evidence, in several ways! Sleeping face is the easiest one to recognise 🙏. Last few thoughts ‘freeze’ the muscles of the face, when sleep applies a brake to the brain's activity.  Only when a brain is well rested, it responds to the mind, and we find it as a ‘dream’ ! The intermediate stage, is called by the medical science as ‘REM’/ Rapid_eye_movement–not adequate enough to merit a name called ‘a dream ‘!



( Somehow, i got into a fanciful habit of ‘observing’ faces of humans at_rest 😥🙏… dead and alive, both… babies, kids, teenagers, youth, adults, oldies and all 😂… i allowed this observation to take its own time, to snowball into a postulate!  This blog, as they say ‘my $ 0.02 worth’ contribution to the brilliant ones around me 🙏)

31 May, 2026


Such a war, like the Mahabharata ( millions of lives lost).....

We have the 'freedom' to be stubborn that it is NOT a natural calamity 🙏 ( and majority opinion is a law, if we like).



Cosmic laws, cosmic 'balance' ( or, the controversial word, "Sanatan Dharma ")... doesn't WAIT for our opinion or concurrence 😜




Dinosaur perished on its own, due to Overpopulation ( easier for 'me' at least to understand 😓)


( What i could NEVER understand or explain to 'myself only'---- others don't bother👍....


Over the years, bed-bugs became too overpopulated at the large house of my paternal aunt. Visitors, CEASED to come incrementally, and in stages😜😜😜

First no one or very rarely someone, stayed Overnight 🤣. खटमल/bedbugs come out at night😜

Then, sitting on wooden furniture was 'risky' .... they started 'tolerating' shaded/reflected daylight a 'bit'+ for 'a while' to draw blood👍. Their survival and basically, the nutrients for 'propagation of species'. 

The big 'blunder' done by 9 kids was....they crush a bug, when sighted😓. The human blood spills out of them, when crushed. The dried blood on the walls occupied more_and_,more 'pixels' on each wall 😜. It became a godown of surplus 'food' though dried blood🙏... 

I stayed a week, when bug_population had 'peaked' 😂

On my next visit, I missed those bugs!!!😳. I quizzed my cousins. Very excitedly they said "Suddenly, they became extinct !!!!".  They couldn't explain "how?”  or " Why?"...


At north, during my stay(1976), bugs too walked into my single room with me, after a late night movie in a dirty theatre 😓

I too crushed the few i sighted. They multiplied! MERCIFULLY, a local friend advised "dont crush! Spilled blood is a catalyst!".... He couldn't add "then, what else to do?"...

I tried & tried. Even placing the wooden cot under hot sun couldn't entirely vanquish the nuisance 😂, though, population control was a success. The tiny gaps between joints was 'dark shelter' for these blood_suckers😂

For a tiny fraction of a milli_second, my personal intellect functioned😥😥😥. I decided to 'try' drowning them in 5 ml of coconut oil👍. Very cost_effective😜. Economically Feasible, and practically Viable.

A month, to catch and dip each fellow in oil. It worked. 

Then, i used burnt_oil to be applied between joints, before keeping the wooden cot under sun. Oil flushes them out of hiding place. Sunlight 'terminates' their life!!! 

And thus, my small single rented_room turned bug_free 🤣🙏


Many lessons as concepts, i gained 🙏)


A spiritual bug, yours,

BrahmaRaakshas, a benign tumour

 BrahmaRaakshas, a benign tumour



🤣


I was struggling to find a way to describe the ‘functionality’ of a shrine allowed to be placed ‘inside’ the compound walls of a kerala tempal/temple. In the rest_of_India temples, this guy(brahmarakshas, a deity, ofcourse) is kept at ‘a safe distance, a little away from the temple😜. This ‘oddity’ around my curiosity to learn a little more about this guy 👍


I have a deep sense of gratitude towards medical science for having given me the phrase called ‘benign tumor’.

I can explain the reason for my gratitude: any ‘flash’ of a new idea and the strange one to me might evaporate before I know it if I do not manage to give it a shape not necessarily a verbal form always but a shape which I can recognise later if & when I recall later.


A tumour is a parasite, waiting to feast on its host, when the defence mechanism inbuilt in the host is inadequate! A malignant tumor eventually devours the host itself. 🤣🙏. Being a lesser intelligent organism it fails to realise that it ends up its own life eventually.

A benign tumor on the other hand is patient enough to ensure its own well being while feasting on its host very conservatively and harmlessly 😜. Normal rakshasa is like a malignant tumor, where as a brahmarakshas looks similar to a benign-tumor😜. Basic nature is similar in both rakshas and brahmarakshas, when they both are intrusive. The whole difference is about their personal agenda 😜. The benign fellow is Keen to part with what he has learnt but failed to impart to anybody else, when he was a normal human being 😭. Now that very memory keep him hunting for a skape goat, to teach ( look at the story of “Vikramaditya and the vetal”, the Vetal hangs on the king's shoulder till the syllabus is completed 😜😀. “गले पड़ना” का उदाहरण 👍)



I leave it to the imagination of the reader to figure out why inside a Kerala temple and outside the rest of India temples(the shrine of that benign_tumour called brahmarakshas? 🙏😜😜😜😜



Benignly yours, 

psn(28 May, 2026)


Post script 

When a kid of 6, i imitated other visitors in our Village temple, and threw a pinch of mud from the raised platform of a brahmarakshas 😜…( for whatever it is worth let me imitate 👍).

But my grandma chided me, saying “hey, we don't pray to it!”. I understood the hint. She was reminding me of my lineage, “Traditional beggars”🙏🤣, पारंपरिक भिखारी। 

In doing so, she inadvertently planted a seed of curiosity to delve deeper into the “why's” of it, when I become adept at the use of ‘sense of Discrimination' as a grownup later 🙏

My choice of words

 My choice of words


😥


Kids who are yet_to learn words  are a source of envy for me😓….  People don't mind if a kid omits a ‘thank you’ for a chocolate, or an “i apologise 🙏” for wetting their nappy! ( Funny thing is, after i reach 85 +     if at all i live that far🤔, i will be like a baby struggling to use thanks/sorry, but the people who might care_to_care for me, may not give me the ‘same’ concession they gave when I was a ‘baby’😜



Choice of words matter a LOT, when a situation is very critical 🤣

Samples….

a)A boy or girl utters a yes or no, while picking a bride/groom, a wrong choice of words, decides the joy or tragedy for the rest of their lives 😜

b) When asking something to a fellow at the “may i help you” counter , when there is a crowd, precise words matter a LOT. Wrong set of words beget erroneous responses, while inadequate precision & ambiguity, needless-emotional preamble might infuriate the ‘crowd’ behind us waiting impatiently for an URGENT info from that dedicated counter wala🤣( that fellow has ‘turned’ into a hater of vague_askers🙏😓

c) Students as kids don't know whom to ask even, apart from how to ask🤔

c_i) when it is about ‘kids’ wrong choice of words bounce_back 🤣….like, saying “drop this into the wash basin👍” and the kid would LITERALLY ‘drop’ a porcelain cup-saucer into the basin and it breaks😜. “PLACE” this cup-saucer” would have been safer😓

“Don't fall 😳😳” to a kid perched on a high branch of a tree, edge of a cliff, etc leaves the kid with a doubt “how do I do_that?...a don't_fall???” . Instead “hold tight to the branch, / move back from the edge” might be EASIER on the ‘tiny’ brain of that kid🙏.

d)the ENTIRE civil_procedure code(a law) was aimed at preventing loss of courts time, using a lawyer for appeal/defense in cases🤣. Legislators know, lay people lack precision of words👍

e) even spelling mistakes and punctuation matters🙏😭😭

Desi epics: one fellow did hell_of_a_lot of austerities, penances to seek a boon. But when the GodJi suddenly appeared and asked “what do you want?” … he faltered and blabbered “nidreVatwam”( sleepyness), instead of “NirDeva_twam”(obliteration of deities).... He was a rakshasa, opposing godly guys🤣

Popular sample of a ‘coma’ in a wrong place……  “Leave him 🙏😥, not_hang him” and “Leave him_not, Hang him 😡”.... a coma decided the life/death of the victim!


Choice of words…. is not always dependent on the volume of vocabulary we have in our stock . A few extra words might substitute the ignorance about a single word that describes something.



I don't know, if I will be ‘reminded’ to be precise in a “critical” situation!  They say “Sweat in peace  to avoid bleeding in war” and this holds good about being precise even during a ‘peaceful’ conversation!



Meditative practices was my root cause of this nonsense of ‘precision in words’ 🙏😥…  when meditation deepened a ‘bit’ , the non_verbal thoughts became Visible,😭 ( like, we see a small hillock, and only_when we climb on to its top, a HUGE mountain behind it becomes visible to_us 😜🙏). But that's my personal problem 🙏. Non-meditators are blissfully_ignorant of their own non_verbal mountaneous godown 🤣👍…. and consequentially, oblivious about misconceptions in them( 😜 non-verbal list deals with misconceptions, not a wrong choice of WORDS)



PRECISELY yours,

psn(27 May, 2026)



PostScript : at my school, a classmate exclaimed “ buddy , forget WORDS, a mere alphabet placed differently can please both, a theist and an atheist alike”

And he wrote the 2 formats in my ‘rough’ note book 🤣 ( book wasn't ‘rough’...my notes were🙏😥)


“ God is    nowhere”( atheist smiles)

“God is now here” ( same alphabets, Theist does a “🙏” with gratitude 👍)

Stomach is Hungry or empty?

 Stomach is Hungry or empty? 


🤣


Kids might recall the difference better than grown_ups 😜


Retired oldies have no excuse to keep filling up the stomach as_soon_as it ‘feels’ empty. 

Dis-Eased oldies, please ignore this blog and follow your_daaktarr 😜 ( i don't want to spoil a doctor's livelihood. Mutual_benefit_scheme, zindabad 👍 ( mediclaim commission agents too survive due to their tie-up with hospitals 🙏)


Grown ups seem to have forgotten the difference between a hungry and empty stomach 😥 ( if honesty is affordable, let them ‘convince’ only_themselves, not anyone else…..that they can feel an empty stomach and hear an Hungry stomach. 

Yep! Stomach has an embedded software to communicate its preparedNess to receive+ digest food, when it is hungry👍. I ain't gonna embarass you, telling the syntax of that message 🙏 )


The nature's design of a human stomach is sophisticated 🙏. Ayurveda texts elaborate it extensively 👍. Texts of Ayurveda were authored by Enlightened masters. Obviously, they were aware of Sanatana Dharma ( rules governing the universe, of which, humans & their stomach is very much a part of this set of rules/dharma!)


Animals in wilderness do not experience indigestion, stomach upset etc 🙏. They adhere to the “rules” of nature ( sanatan dharma) by_default. 

They why do humans alone need a doctor? Reason is, a) humans are a being of Volitional Consciousness b)they are factory_fitted with a sense_of_discrimination, whose “use” alone needs to be learnt via parenting atleast 🙏


Empty stomach is entrusted with lots of mandatory duties🙏. Even the impoverished fellow called an hungry_stomach is trained by nature to source energy from alternative locations in the human body 🙏.


I don't dare to say anything further 😭. The attention_span of a human mind is shrinking damn fast 😜


Appetizingly yours,

Exceptions

 Exceptions

A concept, which never ceased to fascinate me, even as a kid.

As a fallout of this awe, I happened to develop a keen desire to deepen my perceptions to learn more and more about any exception that I notice in any walk of life.
Exception peaked when a Master said "there is no death for a person who lives in this moment!" Whhhat!!!! I got alerted.  No death anymore? Eternal? Chiranjeevi? That means the old guys(ancient rishis, enlightened ones, and the mentions by them in the scriptures) were right all along? 😥Something that is going to take a long time for me to grasp!

But small exceptions were easier to try 😂
Like....
Slicing a cluster of vegetables(especially leafy ones) with a sharp knife, without looking at the process. I need to just focus my mind better on the 'feel' of my fingers of both palms, SIMULTANEOUSLY, to improve their mutual coordination so well that... they become each other's eyes😂
I managed to type the data on a keyboard, without much errors, by looking at ONLY the source of the data (not on the keyboard, or the monitor !). This skill 'produced' another exception in me which I never really aspired for😂....  The officer at the 'data' centre (monitoring the data on Monitors at Head office) saw that 'exception' (hey! this guy is snatching one in every 15 transaction id's generated by the 'system!!!). He dug up more data about my user-id. I clocked thrice the average output by average data entry operators( all-India branches), and the 'rate' of errors was ridiculously low!!  He used the " ip" phone line (internet protocol line) to just know the stupid_name of this exceptional guy 😂(psn). I didn't accord much importance to his-discovery( 'hua tou hua' they say in Hindi).
Taking both hands off, while riding a bicycle is a very normal_exception. But it trains the mind to focus lot better. A new driver holds a 'rigid' and stiff face in a unruly traffic crowd😂 .  The stiffness of face isn't going to help him drive safer, only a better focus will!!!

I even experimented trying to be functionally_exceptional not as a 'freak' idiot always😂.
At my work place, 9 out of 12 clerks wished to avail leave (all were bachelors, 20--22 age), for 5 days, suffixing and prefixing a grand festival 'Diwali' (festival of lights). Our boss declined for a very valid reason. Each had a day's work attending to customers👍And, 3 guys can't handle the work of 12.  (at the most, 9 can 'share' the load of 3 absentees).  I took up the challenge. Planned a week ahead. Job-break-down concept (in 1978, this phrase "Job break down" wasn't popular in desi brains yet! It was crucial to ensure safeguards of the institution, while overlooking/by-passing the Standard-procedure of dealing with work. Shortcuts were needed, without diluting any safety concerns. A bunch of exceptions, were to be experimented 😂 We did it.  It became a memorable excercise. Those 3 (I was one of them) inadvertently tapped a hidden potential within!!!  I tracked the career of the other 2.  They did use their latent 'exceptional-skills' to become exceptional in the later decades😂( One thing i can say with confidence now, 2 decades post my retirement : If rules are understood deep enough, the doors to exceptions about adherence to those rules open up proportionately👍)

Getting enlightened, I was to discover, is the rarest of the rare exceptions😥
And, within those guys who 'become' exceptional, just 5% of the 5% who stay back alive. 'speak' about it😥

That reminds me to wind it up here, with a tragic observation : Spiritual evolvement used to be a very normal routine until a thousand years ago atleast, in Bharat. It is an exception today😭(a very discouraging exception)

unexceptionally yours,
psn(20th of May, 2026)

Intensely relaxed

 Intensely relaxed.


As briefly as i can, i have tried to place my experience of decades of physical aspect of my spiritual practices, as a key to growth and progress🙏



The word “intense” at once triggers tension in us 😂. That's because of the consequences of today's life situation we face routinely. Psychologically we are enslaved to combining tension with intensity, and have ended up with a disability in separating the two. Unless we become tensed-up we don't become intense. When we are relaxed, we are dull, inattentive and non-alert. 


Spiritual practices yield results in proportion to the level of intensity of our alertness, attentiveness and an utterly relaxed mind. Unless the mind is relaxed( calm and still) the organ brain and its obedient neuro_network is not going to obviate tension at physical levels. Even the subtlest tension opaque the subtle inner experience. No wonder, the most_relaxed posture in “yog” asanas is aptly named as “Corpse posture” 🤣. A corpse offers no resistance at all, and therefore manages total relaxation 😜. 


I need not attempt here to elaborate on the practices or the ‘practical tips/hints’ about how_to master this intense_relaxation. The functional form differs with each individual, simply because no two minds are alike😜. We create an entire World of our own, with our mind which is unique in itself 🙂.


A grasp of this concept, might help us to extract maximum yield out of all the practices we undertake on a spiritual path.



For those who are not yet ready for a spiritual quest, this concept, if tested and tried, will help maximize the results of their efforts invested in handling the Material aspect of life. ( Easiest example is, an utterly relaxed mind ensures peak performance of a sportsperson in the world_finals of his sport. Any tension in the mind reduces one's own capabilities proportionately. A sport loses its purpose with a tensed mind😜. And a world_finals is a recipe for tensed mind 🙏)



Inte_Restingly yours,

What irks a reader

 What irks a reader?


If, the reader's mind has calmed down to become receptive, the answer is ridiculously simple🙂 “readers own mind decided to become irked” 😜


Stubborn kids in school decide within “come on, let me see how you are going to ‘teach’ me? I shall Refuse to learn👍. Do what you like 😜”( it is the school teacher who gets irked by the stubbornness of that kid, not the kid!)



Readers realise, something they ought_to_have tried to imbibe/could_have imbibed, while reading a preachy stuff especially 😜…. And the ego gets hurt 😥. Defensiveness pops up by default. This defensiveness knows “this is indefensible” and yet persists recalling stupid excuses🤣. The innocent, well meant writeup faces the negative vibes, for no fault of its own!( Doctors are clever with their words🙏. They never poke into the ego with “you were careless with your health” and similar sounding words👍… they just “stick” to bijness, and prescribe relief, not_cure. It is the body, which struggles to Cure, because nature has zero ego😥



If the foregoing is acceptable, how to find a ‘real’ Guru is a futile search 😜. Out of 6 desi types of teachers, the Guru is different from the rest of 5 in one aspect —-he decides upon a receptive disciple 😥🙏. He knows what it takes for a seeker to experience within the non_verbal thirst for seeking the unknowable( logically 😜). 


There could be scoundrels ( benign & malefic, like tumors 😥) who might provoke a seeking in a disinterested person and vanish from the scene, where a Guru takes over. ( I know the pain and suffering of playing a benign_scoundrel 😜🙏, by sheer experience! It is only now, after 3 decades of playing a villain, age has helped me to done down my villainy in me😭. “The spirit is willing (to be a villain), but the body is weak.


After nearly 7 years of hectic volunteering ( hidden agenda had always been to cause unrest in my innocent victims,)...i decided to write, with more focus on irksome cluster of words, for the same purpose —disturb a reader out of his comfort zone.  Exceptions in the readers were very rare, and only one reader decided to respond about his experience, taking 5 years to overcome his hesitation, apprehending that i may not believe his experience due to reading & retesting the nuisance caused by a blog ( “breaking point”) 😂. The name itself is honest🙏. The blog, if taken a bit seriously, is vulnerable to drive the reader to his ‘breaking point”. Only 1 reader got victimized 😭. No regrets👍. I didn't disclose the name of one the coveted ‘states_of-Being’ in reply to his private mail, in keeping with the rules of Yogic tradition. I merely said “i can relate your experience with my own, and hence can ‘believe’ you🤣”. He radiating joyous_gratitude in his ‘revelation’ of inner experience 🙏. I thanked Maya_Madam for her mischief through me😔.


I have tried my best to tone down the ‘hurt’ through my words( words don't injure. Hurt is our own Manufacturing 😜). 


Villainously yours,

psn(16 May 2026)


Post script:

Statistics is used more to tell convincing_lies😜( media guys mint money)

I am a pathetic disaster, statistically. Only 1 recorded ‘hit’ in my 1000 blogs, and 2 L hits on blog_page( Google says 2L).

Paradoxically, Masters would ( i am almost sure) exclaim 😡 “Whhhat? This pint_sized guy got a hit??? Unbelievable!” And i might retort quoting “agar khuda meherbaan, tou gadha pehelwan👍”... God benevolence makes a donkey into a winning wrestler…..😜

Recognition, cognizable, cognizance

 Recognition, cognizable, cognizance 



For my entire kid age, I was recognised as an idiot by the bulk of my relatives, as elders around me 😂 ( Best part is, i never attempted to ‘reform’ myself from my idiosyncrasies. In fact, i accelerated my idiotic nature after 1992, when some Master taught me spiritual tools🙏).


We depend on something within us, to recognise things and others…isn't it? We teach kids to recognise the shape of letters and its corresponding sound forms, so that the kid grows familiar with a commonality called ‘language'. Use of gadgets, recognising the latent ‘resistance’ in it, we learn + teach those who seek to learn from us!


What do we ‘look’ for in the humans? ( Divorce rate is increasing incredibly 🙏…. Mutual Compatibility depends heavily on recognising the level of ‘flexibility' in our ‘Saha-vaasis’/co-habitants’ 🙂,. Other wise, they seem Durvasa/inCoHabitable for us. Sage Durvasa was famous for nuisance value only( when his intrinsic worth which was in CONFORMITY with Cosmic laws/sanatan Dharma, remained inconspicuous to people around him even ‘then’😜.  Ability to recognise a person has always been an issue since times immemorial 🙏



Real life example: My son, compuLiterate unlike me, worked for a multinational software firm which designed software only for in-house needs( 19 of their global entities, engaging a thousand plus experts from best colleges and toppers. Obviously the CTC/salary was always twice the market rate, and annual hikes around 30% for performers. Convincing? Well, this firm assigned a software development to my son, designed to “recognise talents, from unconventional+unrelated areas of human activity” 😜🙏. Impressed? If not, dump this narrative 🙏….  The software worked👍. Something that globally acclaimed head_hunters can only ‘envy’. 🙂  ( To me, the entire ‘structure’ of the design likened with the methodology deployed by ancient Gurus who used ‘mystic’ tools to spot their potential candidate/disciple for tutelage under them in spiritual bijness 😜🙏)


By now, i am quite familiar with the tools used by others around me, in evaluating my worth….😜

If i failed to notch on their_yardsticks, i would struggle to survive amid them🙏.

Fortunately, I have a serious drawback/defect/lacking/weakness/deficiency/whatever 😥….   My wants and desires failed miserably to reach even the average ‘needs’ of a normal human being, by today's standards/parameters 😭🙏.  The negative advantage of this shortcoming is, their ‘ratings’ about me doesn't matter for my peaceful survival 😜

( Personally, and privately, what mattered more to me was, i get recognised by Masters, with and without their mortal frame🙏.  While i have no means of knowing about bodiless guys interested in me, my experience holds good about mystics i keep bumping into too often right from my kid age i remember of👍👍)


As an incidental byproduct, the tools that come handy to cognize using the 5 senses of perception and also the perception beyond, got within my range of recognition by_me. 


I cheerfully bow, with utmost gratitude to ALL those who labelled me as an idiot👍… ( Ashtavakra too, might have felt similarly grateful for his nomenclature, and several times more intensely than me🙏, when he authored a version of Gita, by his own name, matched by none_else👍. Eight_deformities wala, is his name 😜🙏🙏)


Deformed, yours,

psn (9 May, 2026)


Cosmic laws

 Cosmic laws 



I don't possess the necessary competence to expound the concepts involving cosmic laws 🙏


But, this much sense dawned into me, to understand experiencially, that i am an inalienable part of it 😜( gratitude to my spiritual journey thus far😥).


Do we need_at_all,  a ‘lecture’ on cosmic-laws? Not at all. Please continue oblivious to the existence of the cosmic laws 😜. It's a choice that ‘only’ humans can make🙏…..   


“Human is a being of Volitional Consciousness” ( this jargon appeals better than the desi version ‘buddhi_jeevi’ 😜.  Swa_bodh, mallus say ‘bodhavaan’...etc)


Planet earth. Over the recent 2 centuries, have we made it ‘more’ habitable or lesser? Isn't it our choices that made the difference? There could be habitable planets somewhere in the galaxy or universe, retaining its habitable_worthiness since millennia. Oops! Earth was also made ‘better place’ than what it was, by humans, until few centuries ago!... Especially the bullock_cart fellows of Bharat, evolving into their grasp of Cosmic laws since a few thousand years 🙏. 


Nobody is exempt from the Constitution called cosmic laws ( just as Indian constitution is supreme among all other enactments.  Indians ‘can’ create a constitutional_crisis😜… Often it is politicians who manage to create such crisis. ) …. When humans choose a thought, word or deed which is in contravention of cosmic laws, no police or judiciary is necessary to implement a corrective action 😜. Cosmic laws are capable by themselves! 


My experience is, i experienced joyousness ‘in proportion to the extent that I understood cosmic laws experientially’ 🙏… 

One of my silly koschan was “how is it that Mega villains in our Desi epics got moksha? Whereas, their victims were left in the ‘lurch’??? 😜…. Not quite easy to reach the exact_answer, which is in CONformity with cosmic laws 😜🙏. A pravachan/lecture expert might do a patch work trying to justify saying “well, the villains were undergoing a curse, otherwise….they were divine gatekeepers of Lord Vishnu👍”... Not quite 🙏… Cosmic laws don't exempt even Vishnu 😳, forget his “gate’-keeper😜… epics are flawless, and cosmos_scientific/universe_scientific 🙏


Now, if the reader is still tolerant to read this_far, I can wind up quoting a reference to “4 declaratory truths/MahaVakyas “🙏. Experience of these 4 is enough to know cosmic laws, and after knowing which, nothing else is needed to be known 😜( Howzzat?)


A speck of cosmos, 

And volitionanally yours,

psn ( 9 May, 2026)




Confession:

Please feel free to criticize me, if you feel that i am wrong in giving a desi name to cosmic laws as “sanatan dharma”( i love to be corrected, and with humility & gratitude.) Even if readers spare me, cosmic laws won't, if i am at fault 😭….. dat’s what karma is all about 😜🙏

Use of Discrimination

 Use of Discrimination(not recommended for reading casually)


Nearest Hindi word i came across is ‘ViBhed’ ( mallus i think say “vivechanam”)


My wild imagination:

Scene 1) i am a student of psychology. I shot a koschan to the professor ( who also teaches to PhD kids) : “Sir, how to diagnose and treat with a patient who complains inability to invoke his intellect, there preventing the use of his own embedded software known as ‘Sense of Discrimination’?”

If i cook up for a possible reply by my imaginary professor, i would incur the wrath of a psycho_prof reading it. ( I don't even know if intellect and use_of_didcrimination is a part of regular & mandatory syllabus ( maybe an elective for doctoral & without a mentor 😳

Scene 2) i am a student of Gurukul 4000 years ago, and i ask “guruji, how does vibhed buddhi get invoked at will & CONSCIOUSLY?”

Guru smiles and quotes : “ataha yogaanusgasanam, yogasChittavruttiNirodaha” 

(please note, i dare say: “whether Patanjali existed or not at that point of ‘time’. Because, a Guru transcends limitations of time”.      😜😜😜 proof? Ask Valmiki, who scripted Ramayana before it happened 🙏😥😥😥)


( Why this ‘Non_sensical blog occurred in me?”...

Well, i noticed that brain as a functional organ is indispensable for the sense of Discrimination to be ‘used’ by the faculty called ‘intellect’.  A guess work: we have no steering wheel inside our dreams. Brain responds only partially ….like, when we wet our bed cover due_to_a_dream, as an emotional response or an interference by the bladder which couldn't ‘hold it any longer’...

When memory is predominantly steering the dream, i am unable to ask my dad during the time i am inside the dream ”hey dad, you were already dead decades ago? How come you popped-up now???”



It ought to be the Discrimination_deficit which prevented Sir Newton from wondering something like :” okay, apple falls due to gravity, but why the_hell is the apple_tree defying gravity and growing vertically upwards???”.  I hold no animosity towards any scientific mind 🙏🙏🙏…. Just that the desi_spirituality is a chronic ailment afflicted in me😭)



Indiscriminately yours,

psn( 7 May, 2026)


A googly : ( 😜🤣😥🙏)

Mr Chandrakant jain, when an ordinary youth, got tickled by his sense_of_discrimination while listening to a lecture on meditation by a Big Godman, addressing a large audience 🙏… None others had this problem, which Chandrakant had🙏… Hence, Chandrakant climbed up to the dias, whispered a question to the speaker in to his ears “sir, do you have experience of the meditative state that you are lecturing about?”( Not interruption to the lecture….    only during an interval, this whisper)

That Godman looked into the eyes of this stranger, decided upon an honest reply “No….but this lecture is my bread&butter. Please don't destroy my livelihood”.

Jain wasn't an egoist . He let off that Godman. But jain didn't let_go his question 😜..  the search led him to be known as “Acharya Rajneesh” and later as a global “Osho” 😜🙏🙏)


I started looking for streaks of Discrimination being used by peepals around me, since kid age😥😥 ( by now, you can guess why i said ‘streaks’  😜🙏)



A bogus story:

I love bogus stories, as long as i learn concepts 🙏

A woodcutter was shown 3 axes by river goddess, golden, silver and then wooden and asked if it was his, which fell into the river….. He said ‘no’ to gold and silver, and yes, to his wooden axe. Goddess pleased with with him, gifted the golden & silver while returning own wooden to that guy.

Another cunning woodcutter decided to “Scam” this 😜.  Scamster failed to visualise that “goddesses” use Discrimination by_default😜. Sequence repeated. Cunning fellow nodded ‘yes’ to wooden as 3rd choice asked. Goddess gave the wooden and vanished😜. Scams work only on idiots like me, not god's or goddesses🤣
