To enquire into reality

To make an accurate measurement, the instrument must be free from zero bias. Similarly to enquire into reality, ones mind must be free from bias (religion, gurus, caste, language, nationality, family, friends, ego, profession etc etc)!

If not, one has to live with the version of reality that the mind projects to oneself. Sadly people take this seriously only when the version of reality that their mind projects becomes unbearable for them. Even then, the moment it becomes slightly more bearable, the enquiry drops!

Purusa and wisdom

"Prakrti ajñani,
Cittah alpa jñani kincit kālam,
Purusasya sarvajñani sadājñatāh!" - Krishnamacarya

Matter is without wisdom,
Mind has limited wisdom for brief durations,
Awareness has supreme wisdom forever!

Nandri to stranger

Was running real hard with full intensity at 10PM on a chilly winter night to catch a bus, but just missed it. Just as I gave up and kicked the road in frustration, a good samaritan stopped his bike on his own accord and gave me a lift and helped me get till the point that bus would have taken me to! A big Nandri to the stranger! Reminded of the quote from Alchemist!

Destruction

Destruction is dissolution into the sea of potentiality!

Who am I

Can I be what I love, instead of what I own or control?

நிஷ்காம்ய கர்மம்

செய்க செய்க நிஷ்காம்ய கர்மம்,
செய்யற்க செய்யற்க ஏனையவை!
இல்லையேல்,
பெறுவீர் பெறுவீர் தீரா நோய்,
காலனுன் காலம் முடிக்கும் வரை!

Unconscious

Why do I still host the unconscious?
