I, me, myself or Norway!

Who was your most influential teacher? Why?

  1. I, me, myself.
  2. Raman Maharshi, often considered to be Dakshinamurthy among gurus would agree.
  3. Some others disagree. Self is neither one nor many, nor sum of parts or…..
  4. None of the teachers were influential enough to last forty years of my life.
  5. And so on and so forth.

I think it’s a trap and I might be paranoid, only thing is: it’s a trap and I am not paranoid.

What was the best compliment you’ve received?

I can tell you about compliments I gave. There are absolutely no compliments which can save your life, your day or your future.

All epics are full of those though. Actually it’s swear words people use as compliments these days.

I give myself compliments, in order to motivate myself, it’s done by comparing myself with myself in space and time ( to quote Samuel Taylor Coleridge.)

The best achievement was clearing Peter Schmies Word Classification Test after so many trials and tribulations.

Now I am struggling to clear this test on United Nations World Food Program Website called Free Rice. It’s an archive of archaic words at level fifth and fourth.

If I clear this test: I might be able to flawlessly score everyday. Flawlessly score at least 2060 everyday. This would be an achievement enough to save myself from embarassing teenagers I come across everyday who throw temper tantrums to register themselves instead of actually doing anything meaningful for community or themselves.

Two Days Ago!

Time to come back to palace was supposed to be within ten o’clock.

When I reach at about 10: 15 PM I see people who are awake and discussing things with eachother.

Where’s the catch?

The alarm was to reach within 10.

The gatekeeper said: come about two hours before midnight so that sleep isn’t disturbed for everyone.

Now: everyone is happy. Shop where I work has an excuse to reduce the payment for he has time to argue but no time to consider that my breaks didn’t amount to more than two hours in total in the 12:30 to 9:30 shift.

It’s mostly people chilling out between 6 to 12 or even later.

If I insisted on staying or struggling to save money some people would have been happier. Schedenfreude and Defenestration.

Time to come back to palace:

  1. No time for sand mafia. Do as you please if you come via car. Do as you please if you pretend to attend a marriage every night. Or an emergency.
  2. No time limit if your name is on name plate.
  3. If you tell them that you’re gainfully employed: first find the police department selfie stick which wants you home before twelve
  4. Second: grandmother sleeps soundly, rest of the family is also enjoying sleep. Two young children in their twenties are roaming on their roof in the midnight as their dog barks but rest of the civilized society is so deeply asleep for seven to eight hours between eleven to eight o clock in the night that you are supposed to be within the palace of grandeur where masonic laws have miserably failed to provide any solace in form of civility, before eleven or even before ten.
  5. The same people will eat you alive for not being employed but now they’re focussed on being civil to let everyone sleep in time bar neighborhood kids who chat and roam after midnight on their roof. No rules or planning or advanced telling for jhun jhun Devi fond of wearing ornaments despite being almost retired from service. What kind of ghost ship are they steering and to where and why?
  6. I spent a long time figuring out if they actually had any discipline regarding checkin or checkout if it was really a place with those restrictions. There were none. Maybe kavi sammelan is over now and only means of taxation is by squirming anyone who is too tired by being honestly employed instead of sitting at door to collect taxes by spewing forth laws at random which are not applicable for tenants.
  7. Enough with this bullshit of random laws already. Jeremy Bentham’s Panopticon for all purposes. Deus Ex Machina. Did they tell me about their trip to Baandaa? Did they tell me how they went to that place, why and when? Did they do so just because they were more mature than a forty years old? Why then do they allow someone only thirty years old to enter at random hours while hold me to answer random questions after a hard day at work?
  8. This is the justice system here of which these truthful people are extremely fond of and in appreciation for.
