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 πŸ™

What about the unfulfilled windings? πŸ˜œπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

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 kidπŸ™)



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

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


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 πŸ™ (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 πŸ™… 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 PLUSπŸ™

I dedicate this narrative to my dearest ‘gang’ with all the humility possible in meπŸ˜”).



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. πŸ˜‚


A baby doesn't ignore anything πŸ™. 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 πŸ˜‚ ( 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 usπŸ™. 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 πŸ˜₯…. Gyan, knowledge, which is a product of post_analysis of well arranged dataπŸ™πŸ˜₯….  Indriya_atheeth_gyan !!! ( Knowledge from beyond sensory levels source 😳)


Am I ignorant of all this just_because i ignored my ignorance??? πŸ€”


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 πŸ˜₯😳😳.  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 πŸ™ ( 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 πŸ˜œπŸ˜‚”). 


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


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

They conceptualized ‘that’ knowing which, we get rid of ignorance about anything πŸ˜œπŸ™.  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 πŸ‘.  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 πŸ™. Hence, my attempt is bound to contain a few flawsπŸ˜‚. Please do not ignore my flawsπŸ™.



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 mediaπŸ˜œπŸ™…). 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 (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:

Quote 

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 😜)

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 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‘)

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😜)

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˜“

 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,

Innocence versus ignorance

 Innocence versus ignorance 


They are not at all the same.

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



Easy on brain, wala difference:

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

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



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



I thought over it.

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


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



Ignorance….

gets dispelled at various levels πŸ™

The examples that I can think of, πŸ™ are

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

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

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

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



Innocence:

No examples are neededπŸ‘πŸ™


Terse concepts are in place πŸ™ 

Absence of negative emotions πŸ™

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



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


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



Knowingly yours,

sensitivity as a consequence

sensitivity as a consequence

We need sensitivity, for survival as a human being.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Consequentially yours,

Scientific greetings

 Scientific greetings


πŸ˜‚


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


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


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


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



Shubh means auspicious.

Aakaansha means desire. 


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



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



( How intensely can I use this tool each time, is all that matters now 😜… 

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



With best wishes for

Shubh aakaanksha always,

Yours psn(21 March 2026)

My defective deflection

 My defective deflection


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


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


“ Nobody told me this” 

“I was never taught this”

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


The most powerful missile to me, was

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



I looked at what I knew 😞

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


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



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



To wind up,

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


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


Deflectively yours,

senseAbility

 senseAbility 



I think, I can use simplicity πŸ™ 



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


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


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



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



Sensibly yours,

Flexibility and resistance

 Flexibility and resistance

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

flexibly yours,
psn (17th March, 2026)

Alertness, Awareness and Attentiveness

 Alertness, Awareness and Attentiveness


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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

simply yours,
psn(16 march, 2026)

Problem with "Satyameva Jayate"

 Problem with “satyameva Jayate”

πŸ˜‚


It's a problem only if I take it seriously πŸ₯Ί

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


The problem now πŸ‘

The kid in me asked myself things like

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

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

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


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


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


Some more years passed.

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



A joke about situational_relevance of truth.

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

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

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

πŸ˜‚

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


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

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

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



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


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


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



Truthfully yours,

psn( 15 March 2026)
