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 (ΰ€†ΰ€Άीΰ€°्‌ΰ€΅ाΰ€¦) is a Hindi word meaning 'blessing' or 'good wishes'. It's often used to express goodwill or a positive sentiment towards someone.


Anugraham (അനുΰ΄—്ΰ΄°ΰ΄Ήം) 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:

Exactly πŸ˜‚


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 πŸ™



The human brain" is doing the "A.I." job.....(Whereas Human "intellect" is entirely different from A.I. πŸ˜‚....  ΰ€Άाΰ€―ΰ€¦ , A.B. ΰ€œ्ΰ€―ाΰ€¦ा ΰ€ ीΰ€• ΰ€Ήोΰ€—ा . Artificial brain πŸ™)


Though not an exact definition.....


A relatable example,

Where a "functional sample" of human intellect can be seen πŸ™...is in a popular story = Valmiki conceived+ wrote Ramayana, before it happened (πŸ™πŸ™...  ΰ€¦ृΰ€·्ΰ€Ÿा,  ΰ€ͺांΰ€šΰ€΅ां ΰ€ͺ्ΰ€°ΰ€•ाΰ€° ΰ€•ा teacher, ΰ€œिΰ€Έΰ€Έे ΰ€Έिΰ€°्ΰ€« "ΰ€—ुΰ€°ु" ΰ€Ήी ΰ€Šΰ€ͺΰ€° ΰ€Ήै 😜)

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 πŸ˜‚ ( 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 πŸ‘ (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 useπŸ™πŸ˜“).



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 πŸ™.

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 πŸ€”). I looked at a mental health home. Doctors aren't needed for inmates who didn't have any PRE-EXISTING chronic ailmentsπŸ™. 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 firstπŸ™.  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 bodyπŸ™. 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 πŸ™. 


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



Heartily yours,

Why the blessings are in a disguise?

 Why the blessings are in a disguise?




Flu like symptoms πŸ™‚



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 πŸ€”)


I knew I was an odd guy in this πŸ™.  ( The best part was, i seemed_to_know that i am likely to get a fever tomorrow πŸ™. And seldom got a wrong guess πŸ˜‚. I didn't know how_else this forewarning is going to be of any other use, until i stepped on to spiritual practices πŸ˜“.  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 timeπŸ˜“πŸ˜­πŸ™)


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 aroseπŸ™πŸ˜° “why do mallus seek only Anugraham only, instead of asheervad? πŸ€””. Can't ask such “non_routine” questions to elders, as a kid. I had to “wait” till the answers decide to ‘bless me’ πŸ™πŸ˜œπŸ˜œπŸ˜œ)



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”πŸ˜œπŸ™πŸ™πŸ™… ), 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 puccaπŸ‘πŸ‘… ( the bigger joke is…. contradicting proverbs, sayings, adages started becoming visible😜. And desi_versions i noticed don't conflict mutually 😳. Awesome πŸ‘)


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 πŸ™.  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 lawsπŸ™. 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   πŸ˜œ
We walked. 
It was sunset. A ringing of bells at a small temple attracted her ears. She said "A murugan temple. Saandhya-Pooja time. Do you mind a look for a couple of minutes. We are already beside the temple" (She had to offer so-much of positive reasoning because she knew my present trend. Not keen about  visit to temples 😊)
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 πŸ™....  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 πŸ˜‚... 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 πŸ˜‚.  My wife was equally stupefied, since it was a 'first time' for me, to a temple which she used to visit from her kid age. 
That priest had to proceed towards the next set of rituals, and we had exceeded our 'budgeted' time allocated here. He wound up saying "Please visit on a Thai_poosam day, and I will ensure a place for you to stand and witness the special pooja, despite a crowd on that annual event." I thanked him, and left. (Today, 1st April, 2026 is a "Panguni Uthram" day, an annual event at all Murugan temples. Murugan is known as "Kaartikeya" in the North of Bharat. Tamils regard Murugan as 'their own God". )

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

intrusively yours,
psn (1st April, 2026)

Merit versus qualification

 Merit versus qualification 



A very "private" jokeπŸ™



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



That day....i learnt a very precious lesson πŸ™

Merit has zero dependence on certification process.


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

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


Helplessly yours,

psn(30 March, 2026)


Post script:  not too sure, but i guess, paper qualification became a necessity, when our ability to recognise "merit"  got extinct 😭 ( and now, fake certificates abound😜)

Propeller and Universal joint

 Propeller & Universal joint


Awesome concept πŸ™


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


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

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


When a bullock cart takes a turn, 

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


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

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

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


Today's human_life is SITUATION driven. πŸ˜‚

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

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



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

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


A propeller, yours,

psn(29 March, 2026)


Post script:

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

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

Commercial advantage of cunning laws

 Commercial advantage of cunning laws



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



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


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


Adjournment is a ‘legalised’ way for fund_flow_management.

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


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


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


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


Nature gifted humans with “intellect “. Conditions apply, for ‘using’ intellect 😭.

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

( I seek solace in bothering about my_intellect_only😜)



Gullibly yours,

Love and Trust

 Love & Trust.


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



I look at Love & Trust as 2 sides of the same coin 😜



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

True trust never seeks a satiation”



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


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

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

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

No youngster disagreed till dateπŸ˜“



Trustingly yours,

psn(24 March, 2026)



Litmus test of Love

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

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


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

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


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


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

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

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


Criticism is welcome πŸ™

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


Lovingly yours,

psn(24 March, 2026)
