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 🙏



Tersely yours,

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 👍)



Questioningly yours,

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,

Tumour

 Tumour 


I asked Google: can a tumour survive without a host?




A.I. didn't need time to reply🙂

Quote:

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 😜)


Expansion…

Shape, Size, Shadow, Skyline, Shine, Silhouette (6 S’s)

Movement (1 M)


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 🙏)

Bed-bugs versus cosmic laws

 Bed bugs versus cosmic laws 



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,

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 🙏)

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 😜).

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,

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,

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🤣

Summary of my life

 Summary of my life 


2 May, 2026


 Enduro mahanu bhavulu


Around us 🙂


A good number are inconspicuous too 😥


I tried to look at myself, my efforts to evolve, starting from where I am right now😥 (obviously, i am far-far behind all the great beings i bumped into 🙏.)


And therefore, value-addition for myself, out of confronting any+all those who are Greater than me, became my priority. 


Over the decades of such pursuit and perseverance, I can tell myself "not bad yaar👍😜".... Now, age is claiming me to be handed over back to nature, into its recycle bin 🤣. And, on an as_is_where_is basis( like Govt tenders for sale of scraped vehicles 😜🙏)

Hinduism

 Hinduism 

1 may 2026

A classmate forwarded a video clip narrating the “tree of scriptures” in Hinduism to dispel the popular misconception that Gita is to Hinduism like bible is for Christianity, Quran is for islam, etc….


I wrote:

[01/05, 1:06 pm] PSN: Last sentence, i agree in exclusivity of the foregoing.

"Map" .... ये एक दम सच है 🙏 

In fact, entire "tree" is a 2-in-1....

Roadmap or milestone.

बीच महासागर में ( pacific ocean) without any compass , can we swim/row a small boat to reach "some" shore?

On land, middle of sahara desert, which direction will we walk?

Yes, sun and its direction can guide in ocean/desert। 

In Hinduism, the "ULTIMATE" aim is not_Godजी 😜

Moksha is the ultimate 🙏( अगर ये सच है...... Litmus test is crucial for मोक्ष 🙏)

Litmus test= EXPERIENCE of the 4 MahaVakyas 🙏

If, these 4 are an experience, that person can throw away all the books(tree का list)

The entire tree( scriptures), all the lakhs of temples( Gurudwara, jain, buddhist, mutts/मठ including) are mere tools😂।

ये "tree" का list देखकर डरने की जरूरत नहीं है 😜 

जीवन शैली ही काफी है, मोक्ष के लिए ( bulk of enlightened ones in Bharat were non-brahmins 🤣... Bulk of scriptures were authored by non-brahmins🙏. "Ved"vyas was born of a fisherwoman. Valmiki was a tribal dacoit. Vishwamitra was a king....endless list!

Brahmins used to "read" scriptures, in order to "become" like Google_search, for all others. In order to avoid greed, ego, etc they took a मन्नत/vow, "भीख मांग कर ही खायेंगे" They became mobile roadMap-milestone for entire society 🙏 ( respect for such truly_sacrificing brahmin was automatic/unsolicited 🙏. मैं सिर्फ़ एक चोर-बोम्मन हूं 😜)


True meaning of Sanatan Dharma: Universal law

Sanatan= times immemorial ( before humans existed🙏 scriptures का सवाल ही नहीं 😜)

धर्म is law( nearest English word )

We are a recycled product of countless cause&effect in the universe/ब्रह्मांड 🙏। Hence, adherence to *_cosmic laws_* or सनातन धर्म is the ONLY "route" to salvation/moksha।

मोह का क्षय होना= मोक्ष 😜

I welcome to be corrected with all the humility possible in me( क्योंकि, मेरा भी उद्देश्य मोक्ष ही है, तर्क जीतना नहीं 😜😜😜🙏🙏🙏)



[01/05, 1:11 pm] PSN: Even by chance 

somebody becomes a तलबगार to this "tree" description..... nothing is wrong/lost. सिर्फ उठापटक थोड़ा ज्यादा करके, same मोक्ष 😜..... ( Reason = scriptures are in Sanskrit 🙏. Nature of sanskrit is unique & different from all man-made languages 🙏😜. Self_corrective factors in sanskrit makes/renders it into a powerful tool 🙏 )


Spiritually yours

Logic and emotions in us

 Logic and emotions in us


 Logic is like our old table clock, in which we turn a spring for alarm.  Sensible people allow the spring to unwind itself fully 😜. Unwinding fully retains the ‘life’ of spring longer. Holding the ‘tension’ of the spring weakens the temper of the spring sooner.


Logic, our mind keeps winding 24/7😜

Some of the windings get fully unwinded, when ground reality matches our logical expectations 🙏

What about the unfulfilled windings? 😜😂😂

Sounds stupid? Then look at a baby under one year of age. Full of emotions. Zero logic. Joyous, 24/7. We adults enjoy looking at the baby crying a little, emotionally, while simultaneously doing our best to console it. Next moment after waking or crying, the baby radiates joy!( We love to keep looking at the kid🙏)



Logic at its very best is absolutely necessary for our well being and ease of living 🙏

Unwinding the tension in the logic? 😜 ( I omit the mention of ‘how to’.... Readers loathe “preachy stuff” 🙏.  Diagnosis is a bit rare, especially accurate ones 🙏.


I leave it to the readers to figure out if emotions by itself needs any winding/unwinding, exclusive of logic?


Yes, if a reader feels inspired enough to genuinely seek details/elaborations, I might be persuaded to respond 🙏 (why am I like this now?... I am trying to adhere to advise by Manu in his smriti, in verse 110(chapter 2)



( My recent real_life experience 🙏… i happened to join in a get-together of my school-class_mates, 1957-58 to 1969-70, after 56 years😜, on 27Apr,2026, evening, for 3½ hrs.  A wide spectrum of rare specimens of minds, successfully recreating the kid age togetherNess instantly 😜… Unwinding of tensions in many of them happened effortlessly, by the high_voltage charged atmosphere that got ‘generated’ by_itself! Remember, everyone was 73 PLUS🙏

I dedicate this narrative to my dearest ‘gang’ with all the humility possible in me😔).



Emotionally yours,

“PS” ( thats still my id_proof, with schoolmates 😜)

Ignored ignorance

 Ignored ignorance 


For a very long time, I remained ignorant that to ignore (something) is a conscious choice, where as ignorance is lack/absence of the information itself about that something. 😂


A baby doesn't ignore anything 🙏. I wonders about anything and everything that it ‘senses’ through its sense organs. The sense organs are highly alert, very sharp and therefore very receptive( till that baby starts forming a ‘mind’ of its own). 


As an adult, my preoccupied mind  renders me ignorant of the mosquito that is biting my skin, and i ignorantly_ignore the pain sensation conveyed to my brain by the neuro-network, to evoke a ‘response’ towards the injured skin 😂 ( i was reading a suspense thriller 😞)


A few people decide to try sitting quiet with eyes closed, and still remain very alert, and yet very relaxed!( Usually this practice is done by the name ‘meditation’!).  The joke is, the tiny pain of a mosquito, or a much smaller sensation on the skin which we were hitherto ‘ignorant’ about, suddenly becomes intense enough to make us restless, and disturbs us, provokes a response from us, when we ‘decide' to sit ‘unmoved’ for a few minutes 😜. An itch somewhere ‘demands’ an Urgent scratching by our finger_nails😜 , and a ‘fight’ ensues within our mind, ‘who will win? The resolve to sit quiet or the exaggerated sensation?”


Communication in all its forms seeks to dispel our ignorance that we have the potential to respond to ‘life’ ticking inside us🙏. The source of this communication is from outside of us( ever changing situation) and also from within us. The sense organs takes care of data from outside! ( A teacher once asked us “all your educational degrees, information, data etc which is in your memory/harddisk came through only the 5 sense organs isn't it? Do you have any bit of information which did_not come through any of the 5 sense organs?( Input devices)?”  Oops! I felt!! 😳.  The question gave birth to another question”is it possible to gather data from other_than the sense organs?”...  I was reminded of a jargon “ESP”( Extra-sensory perception). Still it is only a ‘perception’( a visibility, a receptivity). But the desi word for ESP hinted at a deeper possibility 😥…. Gyan, knowledge, which is a product of post_analysis of well arranged data🙏😥….  Indriya_atheeth_gyan !!! ( Knowledge from beyond sensory levels source 😳)


Am I ignorant of all this just_because i ignored my ignorance??? 🤔


We do not get to see a non_human life form ( insects, animals, birds etc) getting trapped in a natural calamity like an earthquake, cyclone, flood, lightening, volcanic eruption etc 😥😳😳.  They don't ignore the early warning from nature, and therefore escape the onslaught. We put up an excuse of “ignorance” when we ignored our potential to sense the warning 🙏 ( Dr Yashpal Kapoor, who was a scientific advisor to Govt of India, wrote “tribals in the forest taught me to notice the ants who travel very differently, three days ahead of a torrential rain, to escape drowning, when our “Param Computer” is still struggling to be accurate in predicting weather 😜😂”). 


“Ignorance of law is not an excuse” !! Other than that, we decide to use ‘ignorance’ as an excuse for everything we ignored 👍.


Worst casuality of our decision_to_ignore is spirituality 🙏. ( Ancients decided to handle the problem of ignorance conclusively 😜. 

They conceptualized ‘that’ knowing which, we get rid of ignorance about anything 😜🙏.  They verbalised this concept into 4 stages of evolvement. These 4 are famous as MahaVakyas/declaratory truths! If these 4 are within a person's EXPERIENCE, he is free from ignorance of all forms. He can ‘know' whatever he wants to know, instantly 👍.  One recent person instituted 4 institutions to propagate these 4 truths, one each, as a gesture of highest human compassion possible. He is adorned with a sanskrit verse “shruti smriti puraanaanaam…. (etc)....aalayam, KARUNA-aalayam”( karuna means compassion. He is a store house of compassion towards fellow beings).


This blog is my attempt to persuade my fellow beings to get rid of ignorance, without waiting for myself to be rid of it first 🙏. Hence, my attempt is bound to contain a few flaws😂. Please do not ignore my flaws🙏.



Ignorantly yours,

Religaire

 Religaire



Original latin word and its original meaning (now extinct) was in synchronicity with one school of thought in recent Hinduism ( dvaita, duality)


Quote:

Religare is a Latin verb meaning "to bind," "to tie," or "to re-bind," widely cited as the etymological root of the English word "religion". It implies a reconnection or bond between humanity and the Divine, often interpreted as re-binding or tying human beings closely to God or spiritual truths


UnQuote 


When a mind turns “commercial”( 95+ percent of thoughts today can be ‘traced’ to some_kind_of commercial value 😜).... any concept gets diluted in its FUNCTIONAL form.


Like….

Religion is more_about keeping the flock_together ( nothing to do with divinity INSIDE a human 😜…. Proof: seldom, an Enlightenment happens in a temple😜….   It happened under a tree(Bodhi tree), etc)


Even a war ( March, 2026) is about commercial aspects of crude oil, not about a religious/humanitarian conflict.



Even the SOPHISTICATION sought in binary format ( computer) meant to replace the limitations of human intellect, as “AI” is functionally enslaved to serve only commercial interest ( AI generated memes are dominating the social media😜🙏…). We forgot the symbolism of the word “intellect” itself, and decided to call the artificial brain( a sophisticated processor) as “intelligence” .





Neglect the ‘core’ of a human ‘being’ and the sophistication thereafter, however intense or immense……can only be about the “peel of LIFE”, not about the core of the fruit😜



Unintelligently yours,

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 (आशीर्‌वाद) is a Hindi word meaning 'blessing' or 'good wishes'. It's often used to express goodwill or a positive sentiment towards someone.


Anugraham (അനുഗ്രഹം) 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 😂


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 🙏



The human brain" is doing the "A.I." job.....(Whereas Human "intellect" is entirely different from A.I. 😂....  शायद , A.B. ज्यादा ठीक होगा . Artificial brain 🙏)


Though not an exact definition.....


A relatable example,

Where a "functional sample" of human intellect can be seen 🙏...is in a popular story = Valmiki conceived+ wrote Ramayana, before it happened (🙏🙏...  दृष्टा,  पांचवां प्रकार का teacher, जिससे सिर्फ "गुरु" ही ऊपर है 😜)

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. 😜

The brain is “accustomed” to become inactive, when the mind is not in the chair of a boss 😂 ( 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 👍 (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 being😜


Paradoxically, who inside me is “trying to understand” the ‘Who_Is_Who” decides the accuracy of the grasp😜 ( 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 😜( 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 use🙏😓).



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 🙏.

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 😜. Animals in free state eat responsibly, sensibly and thus remain Healthy, not just disease_free🤣).


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 🤔). I looked at a mental health home. Doctors aren't needed for inmates who didn't have any PRE-EXISTING chronic ailments🙏. 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 🤣…. 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 😜. 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 😜. 

It makes sense to ‘deal’ with the easiest one first🙏.  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 truth😭.


A doctor can give symptomatic relief for any dis-ease. Cure/recovery etc is up to the body🙏. 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-eases😜🤣. Each fellow has a unique ailment, needing a doctor “good or lucky” at diagnosis 🙏. 


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



Heartily yours,

psn(2 Apr 2026)


Why the blessings are in a disguise?

 Why the blessings are in a disguise?




Flu like symptoms 🙂



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


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


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


Disguised gift….body awareness 🤣🤣🤣


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 😜 ( they can't be carried over beyond this life time😓😭🙏)


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 arose🙏😰 “why do mallus seek only Anugraham only, instead of asheervad? 🤔”. Can't ask such “non_routine” questions to elders, as a kid. I had to “wait” till the answers decide to ‘bless me’ 🙏😜😜😜)



Morals …. in verbal form, received, stored or recalled….seemed more_like a benediction😳😳😳( hardly they get implemented!!!) 

Basics of “life”, when understood by the “intellect”( bypassing the mind, its emotions/logic, and then stored using “cloud technology”😜🙏🙏🙏… ), 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 pucca👍👍… ( the bigger joke is…. contradicting proverbs, sayings, adages started becoming visible😜. And desi_versions i noticed don't conflict mutually 😳. Awesome 👍)


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.😊!)
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 🙏.  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 laws🙏. 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 😜. 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   😜
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 😊)
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 😜
I gently inquired with the priest "Sir 🙏....  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 😂... 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 😂.  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)
