Reaching the top

I do not want to reach the top.
I just want to keep moving.

irudhi satrram

ஒவ்வொரு இறுதி ஊர்வலமின் மணி அடிகும்போது
எனக்கு என் சாவின் சற்றமும் கேட்க்கும்.

Experience and then wisdom

Naalum nadandhu mudindha pinnaal, nalladhu kettadhu therindhadhada. ha ha! A poet claiming the importance of experience and its relationship to the fate of life. Defining that wisdom comes only after experiencing.
Loosely translated into - only after experiences unfolded I came to know which one was holy and which one was evil. Not before they happened.
Ongi aranja maari iruku. Feels like some one slapped me tight. Awesome.

objectivity and subjectivity

The sky is in anger. And thats why its red. the leaves shiver in fear. the rains pour to avenge the earth. and then there is one lonely tree with no leaves, nothing to cover itself with. it stands, erect, bare, its branches twisted and curved like that of an old farmer's, witnessing the war. distant lights houses homes with people. and i am here watching everything through a window. being a mere spectator to everything that is unfolding. or am I participant? or am i both?

Force

Force- When you understand force or threat, it will not have an impact on you. A person who is fully aware, cannot be stimulated unless he/she chooses to be stimulated.

Growth

I have to grow. Movies are movies. They are not real right? Are they? Still confused.

Narrow bridge

I tread a bridge filled with danger on both sides. I see two extremes on either sides, hell full of judgements on one and an open field that ends with a sudden fall on the other.

ella pugazhum iraivanuke.

mela.
seri. mela enga?
kaathula.
Kathula na, enga?
hey..don ask questions ya..jus have faith in what i am saying. Just have faith.

you know how dangerous jus have faith can be?

What is logic?

Do not get prisoned by rigidity. Because there is no rigidity. There is no absoluteness. Because every absoluteness is bound to elicit it's opposite. Try and see. Lets take the example of freedom. Try freedom. To do anything. Try it out for one day. Do not hold back for anything. And then you might realize how difficult or impossible that is. Actions and reactions are intertwined.
Quit defining yourself. Definitions prison. Flow. And realize who you are, how you react. What are the things that are important to you. Some say self interest is the best interest. What is self? :-) What is interest? Things that can be defined differently by different people at different times. So what is absolute? Just when I say these words, there is a danger lingering in these very words becoming the absolute. Yet, they are not. Because these words are written at this moment in reaction to a particular stimuli. Hence the absolute is not very absolute. Yet in certain circumstances it might be. This is not being imbalanced. This is being totally aware.

sitting there

What are you doing sitting there?
I am ageing.

What use of?

What use of knowledge if not spread?
What use of wisdom if not shared?
What use of reasoning if not humility?
What use of you, if you not reach others?

I hate you?

Not because you are successful, but because you do not empathize others' failures.


Not because you are knowledgeable, but because your knowledge is devoid of respect.


Not because you are intelligent, but because you call all others who are not like you, 'fools'.


Not because you have pride, but because you do not have simplicity.


Not because you know yourself so much, but because you do not want to really know the other individual.


Not because your judgments are right, but because you are so judgmental.


Not because you are futuristic, but because you do not have the inclination to know someone's past.


Not because you laugh at yourself but because you mock at others.

Not because your content is good, but because for you the content is always more important than the intention.

Forgiving you might take a long time my friend.

simple wisdom

Sometimes wisdom arrives in a tricycle.

Uncomplicated.

Success.

Sleepless dreams?

Wanderers and stoppers

One minute wisdom

A wanderer wanders, stops and wanders.
A stopper, stops. Never wanders.

Focus

The bees pollinate, irrespective of the noise from the roads.

Irrespective of the cold wind.

Irrespective of the girl watching them.

I like the bees.

Demons wake up when man wakes up?

In your sleep who killed who?
In your sleep which is better -Islam or Christianity?
In your sleep who is better - Bush or Obama?
In your sleep whom do you support - Orange clad party workers or the family taking a stroll down the road?

Everyone is so peaceful while sleeping. Do the demons wake up, when you wake up?

Differences

There is difference. Between playing a musical instrument and listening to one being played.

What happens to my previous marriage?

If I am married newly does that mean my previous marriage (to the same person) seizes to exist? What can a rope do? Bond/unbond?

My previous marriage did not require rituals. The marriage of two persons and their thoughts, hopes, discussions, arguments, the waiting(s), fights, and the silence that followed. In this case I am celebrating my 8th anniversary. Nobody came for the reception. Cos there was no reception. But we knew. That we were married.
