1. 6 rotis with bison ghee spread on them. Two curries: one bowl full of arabi, tomato, green pepper and about four teaspoonfuls of beans. Two teaspoonfuls of apple salad. Having requested just four rotis without ghee didn’t have any effects on the kitchen.
2. Need to compare it with Sallekhana diet: it was one roti with two teaspoonful of curry: it meant 600 rice grains.
3. This plate had 2400 ( 2700 ) rice grains worth of rotis ( though I still consider ghee to be complementary as I had requested to not add it ). Vegetables bowl with arabi is equivalent to at least 30 teaspoonful of rice grains: 3000 rice grains. Bean curry is worth 600 rice grains. Apple salad, two teaspoonful is at least 200 rice grains ( that’s an understatement not litotes or meiosis because apple is costlier compared to rice. )
4. Total: 6500 rice grains worth of lunch. It was posh-No. It was a middle class lunch: it wasn’t posh. It was a lunch I used to have a few months ago. Middle class people here consider themselves kings and queens. That’s where the delusional term posh is born from. Upper middle class people start considering themselves to be sole nutrition givers, as if entire world economy revolves around them. Even in terms of pure rice grains worth it was 10.33 times costlier compared to Sallekhana diet.
Cost comparison:
1. Apple: about 90 rupees per Kilogram it’s 2.25 times costlier compared to rice grains so one on one comparison used here isn’t justified though I have no other way to convert these else I won’t be able to manage on a regular basis in the given rubric.
2. Comparing ghee with apple: ghee wins as the costliest item in your plate. Giving up ghee altogether might save your pocket and do a good, a lasting good to your health and happiness if you can convince the kitchen for it.
3. Ghee is 6.88 or 7 times costlier compared to even apple: the second highest in terms of cost.
4. Wheat is 25 rupees per Kilogram which means it’s one item worth less than rice grains which are 40 rupees per kilogram.
5. On an average, 30 grams of wheat flour or atta is needed to prepare one roti.
6. One teaspoonful of heaped sugar is 7.5 grams of sugar. Normal teaspoonful is 4 grams.
7. Let’s take heaped teaspoonfuls as rubric to measure rice grains and wheat grains.
8. Six rotis are worth 180 grams of wheat which is, at the rate of 40 grams per rupee, less than a rupee per roti. Adding cooking cost, LPG ( Liquid Petroleum Gas) cost and serving, some hotels here sell twenty rupees per four pieces or four rupees per roti. Which means 25 rupees for six rotis. Which means 9375 rice grains at the rate of 375 rice grains per rupee. This won’t be a good conversion.
9. Equivalent conversion which is sustainable is 180 grams of wheat or 2700 rice grains. Here, we haven’t added cooking cost similar to ghee cost. We can update the total rice grains amount today into conversion and arrive at 6500 rice grains. If we added ghee cost it would have been 12-15 times costlier compared to Sallekhana diet. Sallekhana diet was just a few days ago: one roti without ghee and two teaspoonful of curry or rice which was sometimes stale and sometimes fresh.
Peter Schmies Word Classification Test!
Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on.
- Peter Schmies Word Classification Test
- I conducted a research into higher human intelligence during 2005-2009 by interviewing many college undergraduates and a few people from industries.
- I continued similar projects even when the Peter Schmies text version of detailed analogies test was no longer available in 2018-2025.
- By returning to basics of pencil and paper with Jeremy Bentham’s Panopticon for Deux Ex Machina: I realised in February, 2025, that it was almost impossible to clear this objective Words Classification Test ( where you needed to guess if words were similar, opposite or you were making a wild guess.)
- Siddhanta: fundamental: words are sounds in the wild without any inherent meaning in them. In other words: it’s difficult to read a dictionary than reading fiction.
- From the viewpoint of a Grammarian , Author or Lexicographer: fiction is merely a context for interpretation of new word roots, new meanings, new associations.
- The first law of remembering and retaining words is to merely repeat it often enough.
- The second law is associating is with many profound ideas.
- Being able to clear Peter Schmies Word Classification Test removes many curses for example.
- Working in some libraries , for example, is almost impossible because of the banned versions or prohibitions.
- During 2018-2025, another strange thing was taking help from James Harbeck, Sesquiotica fame, who had let me publish a guest article on his weblog earlier. I had introduced his work on Blogging101Alumni website sponsored by Automattic.
- Every time I tried to clear the ceiling of 16 errors until 2060, I used to commit a few errors before reaching the score of 1000 on UNWFP Free Rice Vocabulary Test site which was developed by Josh Breen.
- I decided to make these tests open sources in order to crack them as Rick Rosner of Mega Society had indicated in the Mega Society journal.
- During 2025 January and February this bugged website was unable to maintain itself.
- Collins dictionary was only resource which helped.
- Who was Fredrick Berchtold if not Pope?
- Proselytism in the name of education might work in the short run.
- Names are words, like titles, ranks, offices, honours..
- A breakfast, a bed, a milk tea, a mobile charge, a distraction free environment to publish.
- Project Gutenberg, project renaissance, project Sesquiotica for example.
- If Gregg Scott, Jhonson O Connors, Norman Lewis, Ben Zimmer, Language Log guys and Jonathan Swift decide to keep meaning of words like Russel, Harbeck or Whigham: it’s a guild awards Peter Schmies Word Classification Test which is equivalent to Issac Asimov or Mensa Membership in Sweden.
- But you are almost 40. You don’t want to be 14 years old.
- Time Machines. Name Machines. Walking. Friends.
- Was Reservoir dogs an inspiration for the opening sequence for The Dark Knight?. If yes, Nolan shouldn’t be credited as much for originality as for grand execution which works in corporate settings, in family gatherings.
- As soon as Peter Schmies is out you start condemning him.
- As soon as you exhaust Sesquiotica you look for next Laaloo.
- Brown, Black people were frequent flyers. White people were not so.
- Why did my corporate colleague prefer railways? To save himself from heart attacks.
- What’s next?
Hindi and English Medium!
This is simplest of posts to emphasize a point I have already made too often now.
1. As soon as you enter into the Badminton Hall located inside the Baburam Chaturvedi Stadium Chhatarpur Madhya Pradesh India Area 51 471001: you see a small room adjacent to the hall.
2. Here you would find a similar picture:
3. A picture is worth thousand words. Three pictures must be worth three thousand words at least.
4. The fourth picture:
4.1: I approached labourers.
4.2: I asked them if they would like to get photographed.
4.3: They clearly said No.
4.4: I asked if they were being paid “at least 400 rupees per day for such straining work in scorching Sun:” it was already twelve o’ clock and they were digging earth for another tournament.
4.5: I measured the pitch: it was 34 steps. 22 ft. Sumit and Chanchal were present. I am Anand.
Copyright policy: if anyone associated with pitch creation wants to sue me for taking this picture at this hour; despite their lack of consent: do so by all means. I have barely enough to feed myself. These labourers need more than 500 rupees per day. It’s a difficult undertaking with weather and fuel prices taken into consideration. All cases are subject to human rights commission Chhatarpur Madhya Pradesh India Area 51 471001 and Swacchh Bhaarat Abhiyaan Chhatarpur Madhya Pradesh India Area 51 471001. Help alleviate the hunger and poverty in your world. Improve education.
Why Maroon Pant is Fast Asleep in the Flash Fiction?
1. I don’t like stediam.
2. Gold medelist.
3. Jyfçotidip mention.
1. It’s 12:52 PM 10.04.2022, Sunday, in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, India, inside Pundit Baburam Chaturvedi Stadium. I am sitting under a banyan tree. It reminds me of Gandhi’s fondness for Ruskin Bond’s Unto This Last.
2. I had a chapter in my class 11th text book. The chapter was called:
“The Banyan Tree.”
Or was it
“The Old Banyan Tree?”
I don’t remember. S. S. Khare used to describe passages to us and he used to take long breaks to exalt a mechanic who was a driver in comparison to a driver who had to take his bike to a mechanic too frequently. Agrawal was surname of his favorite student and he used to repeat ‘samjhe?’ in his mouth as an automatic reminder. Strange as it seemed, I gained a greater understanding of his imports for chapters like Reuters and Banyan Tree. He was all for practice. Practice makes a man perfect and perfection can be perfected by further practice.
3. I recently saw many leaves falling from this tree. Yellow. Ripened. Hot wind is blowing. Headline in Dainik Bhaskar Reads :
Game over for Imran Khan.
-Dainik Bhaskar, 10-04-2022
4. Fuel prices are soaring. CK told me that petrol costs 119 rupees per litre.
5. I had a lassi at Chai Vibhaag.
6. Lassi was worth twenty rupees. White bread was worth twenty rupees. CK bought a tea for me. We shared bread with each other. We played the game of scramble. It took us two minutes each to score. Two minutes to evaluate. Two minutes to set up and two minutes to conclude. A total of ten minutes. How much did we both score? My score was thirteen points higher than his score. He teaches mathematics to primary school kids. I teach English to all people I meet, unless they want me to teach them something else.
7. I need to update the article on Chai Vibhaag in Google maps. Their timings might adjust to evening-night pattern. April fool and scorching tropic of Aries. Sun and the North node enter the dragon.
8. Music is a big factor which creates environment. I got to hear some of my favorite songs in my personalized Spotify Jukebox today at Chai Vibhag as I connected my smartphone via bluetooth connect. Tenet soundtrack. Travis Scott. Ludwig Goransson. 2020. Then I heard some of CK’s favourites. He prefers Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber and Bhojpuri songs.
9. What’s with bets?
10. Legal betting odds and evens out and out innards ardent dentistry trysts tsimsum. Summer wine by Lana del Rey. What’s it with ten to the power ten? What’s with cursed lands to be bought in the next year and half which would, by some unseen cosmic powerful beings serve as graceful ambrosia producing wealthy thymus nustard oil? Loincloth. Yes oaths are meant to be for ants. Who cares about care English vocabulary?
11. Here it gets murkier: I heard a news: 12 galaxies spotted together in the sky in some observatory. Virgo supercluster being eaten up by some galactic tic tac toeuvrevenantennamesakeitloafern.
12. Lewis Carroll’s Curiouser and curiouser:
Becomes:
13. Ophelia’s Siriuser and Siriuser. Abcederian. Ian. Anemone. Prandial. Dialtone. Tonesure. Sureshot. Hotpot. Potpourri. Rialta. Altar. Area.
14. I scored 100 on UNWFP Free Rice app. It can be downloaded from Google Play store.
15. What does RFS mean?
16. Sometimes it seems: I ask more questions than I answer. Sometimes. At others i try to imitate Einstein. I try to spell. I try to ascertain the nature of problem before coming up with the answers.
17. I briefly tried to solve paradoxes posed in H. C. Verma’s textbook for CBSE class 11th. Another physics lecturer has a nameplate which reads:
Gold medelist.
18. Why piglets can’t rest under this banyan tree this afternoon? Why does this land burn so much? Why did that gold medelist boy wear maroon pant on the day he was supposed to wear white?
19. I don’t have all the answers. But his pant was short. The bearded guy was named Joseph Garvashish.
20. Joseph is not my cup of tea. Garvashish is an amalgamation of Garv and Ashish. Garv stands for pride and Ashish for grace. That guy was general manager of the high school at that time. We used to call him Father.
21. Almost all my friends remember being called out of classroom once in a while in the office of Maria Mata Convent High School which was run by sisters of Nazareth then. We were spoken key words in our ears: silently: “Faffa se bolo ki fees jamaa kare.”
22. Faffaa was busy playing cards or ludo or chitfund or whatever the heck you want to call gambling and alcoholism. Not to mention: gold medel faded like mendelieves (believe it or not Ripley or not!) Periodic Emily Dickinson fashion.
23. It gets even murkier and ends up in business as usual. Hollywood. Bollywood. Matrix grade 1992, 1999, 2000, 2014, 2021. Truman Show is the easiest way out of it!
24. The guy in white pants was a son of an engineer in public health engineering. He recently departed(ode to Leonardo DiCaprio/Matt Damon/Anthony Hopkins/Mark Wahlberg starrer movie which highlighted police procedural in dark knight fashion in contrast with Akira Kurosava’s police procedural in High and Low. Which one do you like and why? Let me know in comments. Or watch Parvarish in which Shammi Kapoor nourishes Amitabha and Vinod. Yes, heroes not characters. Stranger than fiction is reality.
25. Mazhar met me yesterday with Suresh who didn’t tell me about his last name. My doggedness with badminton hall in Baburam Chaturvedi Stadium Chhatarpur Madhya Pradesh India Area 51 being obvious raised some eyebrows:
A. What’s with your financial condition?
B. What’s with your bag?
C. Why do you play loud music?
D. Why do you stand in that corner?
E. Why do you watch us play?
F. Can you sit down there so that I may hear walkie-talkie and continue to play badminton?
Mazhar is a constable in superintendent’s office. Suresh looks like he’s a sibling of Sumit Upadhyaya, who’s a poster boy and a badminton player.
Mazhar invited me to his office and I felt like being interrogated. Why not his living space? Why not a tea stall? Why superintendent’s office?
I told him about despicable state of badminton hall as well as Baburam Chaturvedi Stadium Chhatarpur when it comes to cleanliness.
26. A student scored highest marks in English. Forty nine out of fifty. I scored forty eight. I don’t know what was score of the guy who had white pant well pressed on the day picture was captured. His mother was furious when I went to his house with excitement and scores. Obviously : R or V should have gotten the first merit. Conspiracy begins.
27. Who reported you the news tells a lot about news provided you know how to read advertisement. An obvious allusion to Arthur Conan Doyle for my reading in detective fiction doesn’t exceed more than a whit of Sherlock Holmes Canon.
28. Antyodaya means “Raising the most downtrodden and outcast.” Deendayal Rasoi is a scheme which has supposedly fed 7600000 poor people in 58 cities:
The scheme is a superflop advertisement campaign like Swacchh Bhaarat Abhiyaan.
Look at this: after having experienced advocates of scheme and donators: I find it locked on occasion of festivals. Is a real charity supposed to be lock at any time?
Where does all the money go?
It goes to maintain gardens in collectorate.
It goes to create hoardings.
It goes to give mic to Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian and other propaganda creators like devotees of motherland, English, Hindi or style or big English vocabulary or Cricket or environment.
Consider last three events in this stadium where I am writing this brief essay on my own shortcomings. An admission of my lack of abundance.
29. Someone committed suicide in my neighborhood. The family is a family of jewellers. Suicides were regular. Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide in the same year. Eleven people committed suicide together. A town inspector’s son used to play cricket with the guy in white pant. I used to play with the guy in the white pant. There was another guy who used to play cricket with us. He got another gold medal five years afterwards. But before that I broke the record of crossing fourth stage of eighth round of Super Mario Bros’: Nintendo games. I was thrilled to report that to all three of them. Our names began with V: twenty second letter of English alphabet.
30. Another town inspector’s son. A bridge. Jyotidip Mansion is written as Mention.
31. How much time it took you to read through this article? How much could you learn. How can I work on improving my physics, income and relevance to stay on course? The bet guy promised to produce evidence. Ten to the power of eighteen is just four less than what North node would continue to indicate for next year and half as per the sidereal zodiac. What’s your age? You’re probably young and feel immortal! Have you watched SciFi movies like In time(2011), Tenet(2020), Inland Empire (2006;) and Richard Linklater’s Waking Life?
32. Bonus:
Are you interested in nails?
Raw?
My economic status?
Are all people working in April, May, June, July and August fools according to British Empire?
How did April Fool and Mayday came to be?
Do let me know if you didn’t like my picture. Grimace. Pants. Sarcasm. Italian pasta or tie. Or the resolution of pictures.
My [pronunciation] of the words is not good!
1. This is, one of the questions on Grammar quiz on WFP. Free rice site operated by United Nations. Yemen emergency needs us to act with kindness.
2. The only problem is: this question hasn’t been edited for some reason in the last two years despite my complaints. The two options in this question are replicas of each other. Mirrors for each other. [Are you sure of that?]
3. It means: this must be some sort of puzzle. I chose first response and it was correct. I might observe more with time as an objective of metaverse research.
4. I have a big responsibility to shoulder today after a long time: to take care of some kids in a primary school as I teach. However it’s an unpaid job. I am fed up of unpaid and underpaid jobs. Yet I can’t say NO simply because there’s no other jobs available. Please unite to create jobs for yourself and others. Say NO to underpaid jobs, bullies, manipulation and agitprop when you truly need money to pursue your education, career and objectives.
5. English language Grammar or any language Grammar for that matter: helps you learn coding. Grammar and coding are basically languages to execute certain processes. Say NO to animal cruelty.
Hanuman chalisa and Vishnu Sahastranam!
1. Forty verses praising Hanuman were composed by Goswami Tulsidas, author of Ramcharitmanas. The climax declares: in the end the reader is born in Raghuvarapur as a devotee of Hari which is a name for Vishnu. Solar dynasty. It also declares that anyone reading it 100 times gets liberated and experiences great bliss.
2. 1000 names of Vishnu were composed by Ved Vyasa, son of sage Parashara, grandson of Bhrigu who was a son of Brahma the creator. The treatise claims that devotees of Vaasudev( one in whom reside all gods) are neither born nor die, nor become subject to any diseases or bondage.
3. There are no facts only interpretations. Nietzsche
4. This post has four blocks. It’s a fact.
2212220
1. As an aside: Corona has all the symptoms of a religion.
2. To be clear: I don’t mean that religion is a disease.
3. Outer signs of being religious: rosary beads, salutations, prayers, keeping hairs or not, way of living are telltale hallmarks of all religions. The debate on the news channel broached the most documented disease of history: Corona. The religious aspect, in my humble opinion is the way we have been ‘forced’ to protect our lives against it. Wearing masks, keeping social distance and washing our hands frequently. Wait…a lot of it was present all along…AIDS etc. Bill Gates was talking about vaccination long before December 2019.
4. Conspiracy theories can neither be supported nor denied.
5. If there ever was any universal religion: Corona qualifies as one.
6. My honest opinion without sarcasm or irony: it’s the process of transmigration or ascension or departure. People learn that they died. They’re revived. If it’s revealed death loses its appeal. There remains no fear. Whole bunch of people go out of business.
7. Not all people are revived. However: I clearly recall three people dying and reading about their deaths: later they came back to life. Memory is updated. Somehow, after much struggle and devotion to God of Death my memory of three prominent personalities coming back to life was left intact. It’s akin to Mandela Effect with difference that I am the only person who remembers these revivals. Accounts of such revivals or Lazarus effect are numerous in epics like Bhagvata Purana and in hagiographies of saints like Nayanmars.
8. A question was raised about lord Ram’s father.
9. With all due respect to debators: I clearly think that it’s an elementary question in gnostic tradition. Which means it shouldn’t even be a subject of discussion among people who represent masses in parliament.
10. Krishna and other gurus in epics like Bhagvata Purana have spoken about grace given to devotees which makes them realise the presence of divine in all that exists.
11. The formless is realized with great difficulty by beings who are identified with a form. Hence worship of form is encouraged.
12. There are countless streams but five prime streams within Hinduism to realise Absolute.
13. Vishnu, Sun, Shiva, Ganesha and Shakti are these streams.
14. All movements with avataras operate in two ways: first is identification with an existing tradition: for example: Shakyamuni is considered an incarnation of all pervading Vishnu principle by Hindus whereas his life was spent in resisting these doctrines.
Rama and Krishna are other prominent incarnations.
Second is declaration of autonomy and then ministry.
15. To elaborate upon the second: Rama is considered absolute in Ramanandi tradition. Constellation is Aries. Prime motive: restoration of traditional sacrifices. Sages weren’t able to continue them because of demons and took help from divine princes Rama and his brother. There are billions of tales associated with this, similar to Jataka tales.
16. Hare Krishna tradition considers Krishna to be the absolute principle. Vishnu becomes an aspect of Krishna. Bhagvata Purana becomes central text along with Bhagvad Gita.
Taurus is second constellation. Taurus-Gemini are near Orion which is a hunter in representation.
17. In one of the discourses Ramana said: you can know God only by becoming a prey to him.
18. Similarly: Sun, Shiva, Ganesha and Shakti are worshipped as absolutes and have their origin in one or the other aspects.
19. Logos, word or Christ manifested in flesh. In other traditions Christ, Moses and others become streams to reach absolute.
20. Important is ministry: desire to command and rule. First be a servant, a slave, then gain weight and be a minor ruler and then keep doing that till the end of eternity. Why there are so many timelines?
BC/AD, Tibetan timelines, Hizri and Shaka timelines, Vikrama timeline and so on?
21. It’s simple: as UG said: there’s a piece of cake and every identity wants largest part in it. Keep working for your share like I am working for mine. It’s simply put: devotion to Self.
22. Coming back to the question: Was Dashrath Rama’s father?
Is it relevant?
If clout says it’s .
Gandhi didn’t consider Krishna to be a historical person.
23. I think name of Rama has been emphasized more than his appearance which varies from text to text. In your final hours your memory fades and highest bidder buys your soul. There are countless bidders if you’re not on your own.
You need some stories to develop enough energy. You see where this is heading: Shakta tradition. I can make it head in any direction I need. Or nowhere.
24. The switch towards consciousness is highlighted in the Hare Krishna and other new age movements. The learning begins with stories and accomplishment is firm conviction in the principle which is a magical cure for misery and hunger.
25. Ramses consciousness is a warrior consciousness. Fiery. Martian. Solar dynasty. In Shrimad Bhagavad Gita: Krishna talks about his opulences in chapter 10: I am Rama among those who carry weapons. Best fighter is Rama.
Protects sages who are busy in Yajna or sacrifice. Gita is all about sacrifice.
26. Similarly Christ consciousness. God consciousness and so on.
For a grown up: whether Rama was born after the sacrifice performed by a sage or without it shouldn’t matter.
For faithful: Rama is source of all incarnations. Rama is synonymous with Krishna, Christ, Jehovah, Allah and others.
Rama is dancing light of grace. Natarajan: Shiva.
For wise: it doesn’t matter. If names offend you don’t choose them. Live with numbers. Or with images, or scents or doubts. Whatever suits you. Whatever brings food on your table.
27. As an aside: the ideal leader for me would be one who could bring euthanasia free of cost for all. Without going back on his words. Without making me link another PAN card with ADHAR to keep tabs on me. Without making me play office-office. Euthanasia means: happy and easy death or passage to hereafter. And if it’s available in Switzerland and elsewhere it should be the right of all people in India, China and other third world countries as well. We live way too long and it’s not the life free from death, decay, aging and diseases. I will be the first one to opt for it. It hasn’t changed over the years. You can peruse this blog and find about it. If a person leaves Earth: it frees up space, energy and memories for others.
The Natural State is Not An Experience
Experience is in duality. First, there’s the subject, the experience and also there’s the experienced. All of our activities are to avoid unpleasant and to increase pleasant , in both intensity and duration.
Traces of pleasant and unpleasant experiences remain in memory. Not just the knowledge derived therefrom but emotional outcomes too accumulate. They make up what’s called as Karma.
The natural state is not an experience. It can’t be captured by the experiencing structure. It’s the lack of any experience: therefore it’s also called void. In a way, deep dreamless sleep is also lack of experience. Its effects on body and mind are known as relaxation and rejuvenation but it leaves no conscious impressions. The natural state is a similar experience: with only difference that it includes in it the waking state as well. It’s a kind of wakeful sleep.
Poets and mystics have called it blissful mystic experience of sublime beauty. But it’s devoid of any characteristics of duality. Very absence of experience renders memory clean of emotional experience. Abiding in the natural state also erases previous stores of impressions.
To say that natural state is desirable is untrue. It’s actually accumulated traces of pleasant and unpleasant experiences which make the subject desire escape from them. The Duality, and Trinity of experienced, experiences and experiencer ceases in the natural state.
Any glorification of the natural state is false simply because there’s no one to be glorified in particular. It’s nobody’s achievement or business.
Ideal Day?
I was asked this question by a chatbot:
What would your ideal day be like?
Without any hesitation or pausing to think, I replied:
It would be the day when I am absolutely sure it’s the last day of life.
The simple reason is: I had absolutely no desires for a long time. There’s no desire to experience. Feeding the body and taking care of it has been a burden for as long as I can remember it.
There’s no motivation for me to get up everyday and continue to work to keep this body alive.
It might look like a gloomy thought process. It has been so for a long time. The day when I leave would be the happiest and ideal day not because I am any less happier today but because this process comes to a permanent end.
Self
I realized: Self or Bliss alone matters!
Why should I waste my time describing things which prove to be mere diversions?
It’s for bliss that we seek diversions.
When I realized Self : it was bliss with me : always remaining by my side, well melted in my mind, in my heart, never leaving.
It took some more transformations to convince my mind that there’s nothing else I needed to pursue but merely to sing songs appreciating what I had arrived yet.
The conviction became unshakable, firm and profound.
This absolutely quiet blissful dance of reality is my home, my nature and my love.
If I don’t talk about it: some dark elements come dancing for a while which are soon kicked out or flushed out.
I prefer talking about it. It’s reality. I see carcasses chasing dreams. I don’t think I want to pursuade them. In them also: I see the same dance of reality. Bliss. I think, feel, reflect, read and write about it: about reality. Reality which eludes Science and which is beyond human mind made itself known to me. It assumed my form by mingling well with me.
Theism and Atheism!
1. Some mystics divided human existence in five-fold sheaths in Upanishads.
2. Physical, vital, mental, scientific and blissful.
3. These are also broadly considered to be gross, subtle and causal layers of existence.
4. A liberated being is supposed to transcend all sheaths. Only a slight layer of blissful sheath covers them until their body drops or gets transformed into pure body of gnosis and bliss according to literature.
5. In songs of mystics who attained Immortality or pure body: there’s a clear understanding of Nonduality which is the only fearless freedom possible. It’s theism without allowing anyone else who compels you anymore.
6. Atheistic philosophy like Jainism admits multiplicity of souls who enjoy equally blissful existence once they’re liberated. Though there are countless liberated beings according to it, there can’t be any conflict between them because conflict causing egoic grip is lost with liberation.
7. I feel: the scientific sheath in the causal body which holds gods as opposed to demigods in theistic scheme is the reach of atheistic Philosophy. Theistic philosophy is merely beautiful art to elaborate upon bliss experienced by liberation. Songs created in bridal mysticism and in other verse forms were only suitable ways for expression of love felt by liberated mystics. The apprehension of reality is impossible for human mind and thought can’t express it.
8. I don’t see any conflict between atheistic philosophy like Jainism, Buddhism and theistic philosophy like Hinduism. Hinduism is an umbrella term which involved more cultural elements whereas Buddhism was mostly a reform of Hinduism which because of being mostly based on Philosophy and reason gained currency and later included elements from Hinduism to survive.
9. I also don’t see any conflict between essence of Islam, Sikhism, Christianity and Judaism in my own understanding and study.
Light, Camera, Sound and Action!
1. There was a report about multicolored monoliths appearing at various places. It reminded me of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
2. While developing models for study of life and students I began with journey, game, school, dream and war models. Yesterday, at the conclusion of ceremony organized by Madhya Pradesh Hindi Literature Unit, the anchor recited a verse to mean that it is a journey and we shall meet again. I recalled Rumi’s Caravan.
3. In the play model: lights, sounds, camera and action is an often repeated pharse. It tells you about primary foundation of play as a model similar to any other models.
4. Light can be of many types. Sunlight, Moonlight which is a reflection of Sunlight or electrical light, electromagnetic light, biochemical light as produced by fireflies and finally the dancinglightofgrace.
5. Sounds can be of many types. Heard word is either produced by collision or without collision. The one with collision has a physical presence of objects in your vicinity whereas the other one is an echo. It might be an extrasensory perception. These can be humane or natural. Artificial or divine or demonic.
6. The logos is inner sounds. It’s written word for those who live in Truth realm universe. If there’s no erroneous hearing : it can also be heard word.
7. Whether seeing is believing or hearing is believing or it’s more complex than that: decides what takes you to your true home in the Truth realm universe in your journey.
8. Witness is camera. It’s knowledge without judgement until it’s a must. It’s forgiveness. It’s Akashic records.
9. Action is Karma or doing or movement of energy which always returns to harmony or higher order. In case of individuals who live in the truth realm: a higher order replaces the chaos which is replaced by smaller and smaller chaos towards higher and higher orders.
10. Without firm conviction given by gnosis you can’t be at peace. It’s akin to bliss of deep sleep. The duality is always a play between the opposites, a zillion shades of contrast. Nonduality can’t be traced, found or pinpointed to . Reality is a mystery and yet this solipsistic Nonduality can find harmony in artistic expression of sublime beauty. As you contemplate and focus identities, the pinholes through which light, sound, camera and action activates the psyche or universal mind, brings them to light of awareness, you realize that every identity is a complete perfection interevolving with other identities into a higher perfection which is novel in its expression yet in keeping with the foundation.
11. A universe comes into being with every identity and as this identity keeps growing in truth, knowledge and bliss it overlaps other identities. It enters into mind of others and others come into its mind which is actually universal mind. Both of them interdependent and arising conditionally. As long as characters engross you they’re given reality by your light which activates them. It’s more complex than mere desire to enjoy, witness or control because it’s above all: desire to be or exist or live. Beyond it there’s neither desire to live nor to not live, which is actually its natural contrast as love and hatred accompany each other.
12. All this for me? Yes. Only for you. There’s no one else but you!
