Heart is the closest synonym you can find for the really pseudo 'limb' called mind. When you get really hurt you will have an ache which originates very close to heart.
Author have repeated this often in his blog; that life is a rather straight line. Maybe more or less like a kid with a crayon trying to join two points.
Relations are there in every aspect of life. Be it friendship, 'love' or commitment. There is, but one thing, that underlines all these relations. Its the aspect of feeling for someone. Be it hatred or affection; if you feel for someone he/she is important to you.
The author of this blog has been heavily influenced by the book Power of Now, suggested by a very special friend of his.
Relations are a double edged sword, one edge being sharper than the other. You might find all the happiness in someone, but if you ever come to a point that you are losing him/her, the sharper edge of the sword takes over. Hurt, frustration, loneliness. The wounds this sword makes to yourself, is much greater than the happiness you get by drenching the sword with the blood of others' wounds.
So why do we let emotions and lust take control of our lives? Here is one place where I cannot come to this else amazing writing called Power of Now. Without anger, without heartbreaks, without frustrations, just imagine the world. Too tranquil a substance. Too much of tranquility is a really boring experience.
Its like a room with no sound. Peaceful you might think, but then again you might feel the mighty need for some distortion, some sound; something to relieve you of this monotony.
So lets not keep our emotions at distance. Let it be there, but as 'Power of Now' says, never let the emotion take control of your life. Feel bad, feel sad, but never feel hopeless.
Look around and see things- Visions and Perceptions, always there, seldom noticed.

Happy New Year- came a tad late
Its been quite sometime since I have written something here. And the number has been decreasing every month.
Well here is a New Years post, which comes, well... on 18th January, 2007.
The writer of this blog was down with major fever on New Years eve and couldnt drink and party up like majority of the species out there. But had a pretty decent time thanks to special people in life.
I hope all you had a great time, wishing you a great year ahead.
Expect a new post soon.
PS: the writer of this blog is Me and Mary Jane kills us all.

From Lords above who created life and living
when can i hear the sweet voice which whispers to me from the back....
the one voice which is pushing my lonesome and love drenched life forward..
which is the sail that catches the wind..
to move forward
even in the midst of a foggy ocean. even between tides that consumes me... the lifelessness in the music i listen to... the beat.. the rhythm.. that pounds on... like the beat of your heart.. which has given up... which makes you rise from ashes.... like phoenix... waiting for its next life... how i wish... i could just terminate.. and start all over again.... the joy.... the erratic mood of lilt... the pleasurable moments of adultery.... how will i define it all.... life...... i bow before you.....

White
Well first and foremost... sorry to all the regular readers of this blog... it wont account to more than 11 or 12 of my very close friends.
The reason the blog got bogged down was I had a trip to Goa and am still rejoicing on that. Drugs, Dine and Do (the girls that is).
Here i wanna specify on the serenity of white. Why is white so serene... it hardly has blotches... it never hurts your eyes... it gives you vacant space to look at... rather than black... which makes you feel somethings clouded over you.
White represents to me, spotlessness; absolutely transparency. Purity and straight forwardness. When you find spots or blotches in your white of life, you know you are going the wrong way.
but is white always the right way of life? wouldnt we want some blotches and shades in our life. Something we can have a guilty pleasure of. The writer of this blog 'smuggled' hash over a flight. It gives me a thrill and is not all white. So the blotches do account to something.
White can mean you are pure of heart, you are sensible and extremely truthful. But white, do not always make you a good human being. For us being part of what God has created us to be, we have to have shades of grey. Not all good... not all bad. Broaden up... go for your senses, grey up those whites, enjoy life.

Revenge
'Revenge is a dish, that is best served cold.'
Uttered Don Vito Corleone in the acclaimed novel The Godfather. The beauty of the dialogue is amazing. I wonder how Mr. Mario Puzo came up with that one.
Revenge is a beautifully satisfying feeling. To take back all the hurt caused by someone in an equally 'hurting' way is satisfaction redefined.
No matter how peace loving we want to be, revenge will always be behind our minds. Father of my nation, Mahatma Gandhi, gave new meaning to peaceful protests, but what he achieved in the end; sweet revenge for taking his country away from him.
Revenge often mistaken to be violent, is a largely misunderstood concept. It is in everyone's psyche to get back whatever you have lost. It might not be material to material. But it can be the high of getting something back from them.
How to go about on a revenge?
For this I come back to Don Vito Corleone.
1) Do not go against the 'wrong doer' at the outset.
2) Plan it up and the let the pressure go down.
3) When the heat simmers down, you know your opponent goes down on defence. She is not expecting any bite back from you.
4) Work it up till then, and charge back. Surround your enemy from all sides, without the chance of letting her escape.
Thus revenge, if executed slowly and effectively, becomes the most satisfying experience in your life; even better than sex. So let me ask all of you, not to go around throwing swears and fists at each other, but hit them on a different level, from which recovering will take some time.
Addendum: The writer is this blog loves revenge dramas, the one which has the planning part of the revenge forming the crux, and the execution, the climax.

Angel of the day
I believe in Angels. Angels are supposed to bring good luck to you. I think everyone of us is an angel. And I am sure everyone of us will have an angel everyday.
Is it religious? Supernatural? I dont think so. Its simply someone who lifts your life to a different dimension. Someone who can make your worst doubts vanish and who finds solution to something which has brought your day down.
Cant we be that? Ofcourse we can.
A friend of this blogger had to help this couple in distress. And she succeeded in that. Hence she became their farishta(angel) of the day.
All of us will find such angels everday; only if we look out for it. They maybe someone who doesnt even know you properly, someone who might bring that extra luck into your daily life and makes you think, 'Oh am so glad this happened'. But we hardly take notice.
Happiness is the ultimate aim for all species. And whoever attains that for them, is their angel for the day.
It can be a friend who you really didnt think of much, a person on the street who helped you find way to someone you care or anyone for that matter. They can really put a spin on your daily life.
So readers, please find your farishta of the day. Build new bonds, and be sure you are someone else's farishta of the day. You might know it, or you might not. But feel the rising happiness in your mind and enjoy it.

Philosophy of Life- from Dil Chahta Hai
I know that the readers of this blog must be getting bored of Philosophies of life. Life as such is a long and complex choice; the views we have on those will be different as well.
As the writer of this blog, I try to find different perspectives in life from daily life.
This determination made me get another one from this hindi movie Dil Chahta Hai.
The movie as such is one of my favourite Hindi movies of all time.
But the philosophy of life from this movie goes rather unnoticed.
The movie is about three friends. A girl is in love with one (Aamir) of the three (Aamir, Saif, Akshaye) but the guy doesnt like her at all. Another one (Akshaye) of the three friends is trying to explain this to the girl.
He takes beach sand in his fist and clenches it hard; most of the sand goes from between his fingers as he tries to cling on to it.
Explanation: The harder we try to get someone or try to keep that person with us, the more distant you grow from that person.
This small gesture addresses the biggest problem most of us faces. Possessiveness.
Why do people tend to get possessive? It is one of the most natural of human emotions. People tend to admire someone/something so much, they do not want to lose out on it. It might be insecurity or maybe you are stubborn.
We have to realise that if we have to cling on to someone, that one person might not be completely yours at all. The harder you try the farther they get from you.
Freedom is a birth right as the Great Mahatma's said some while back. Everyone needs it. Give everyone their space and they will give that great big pie of their life to you; if you deserve it. Let independence be yours as well as the person you are so possessive about.
Visions and Perceptions from your life makes this world a better place to live in. So let us all open up that clenched fist of ours and discover peace.
