Googly!

1. I bowled forty times and walked four rounds. It makes the count 100/10. It was difficult to get the body warmed up. The constant inflow of vehicles created dust inside the ground. The Ravana came with bands. Kids who were playing began laughing : so did I. This is the most minimalistic Ravana you have ever seen. And early morning they cracked some crackers. After having read an article in Dainik Bhaskar when I was thirteen or fourteen years old: I never ever bought any. I did burn some which were freely available. The article talked about billions of rupees getting wasted within a few minutes. Compare it with celibacy: if a masturbator enjoys to waste the food consumed : it should be upto him or her: like it should be upto those who burst crackers or eat them.

2. Since then : it has been two decades: how much of country’s wealth I saved. And influenced how many. Here I am defying age old traditions. This is the most minimalistic of Ravanas. If everyone in the city donated ten rupees, which they do via taxes: lighting and creation of Ravana can be maintained.

3. I could only see nine heads representing nine holes of bodies. The tenth gate or the tenth dimension which is much appreciated in gnostic tradition is looked down upon by Vaishnavas. The tenth gate here is a mule: a crossbreed of horse and donkey. Saint Eknath did see the almighty who was hidden in a donkey. Ravana was Jaya and Kumbhakarna was Vijaya. Protecting the Vaishnava temple: the prime guards. Sanatkumaras or Laxmi according to different versions were responsible for cursing them for being too loyal and proud : they incarnate only to get repeatedly killed by Vishnu in forms of Varaha, Narasimha, Rama and Balaram (Krishna.)

4. The flaw in the story: Vaikuntha shouldn’t have anything lacking as it’s beyond Maya: governed by Yogamaya: no higher or lower or ruler or ruled should exist: as it doesn’t in Kabir’s Avadhoo Begum.

5. Archons are ruled by Saturn. The legend says that Ravana couldn’t control Saturn. It was the cause of his death.

6. Shaivas have Ram as a heroic character: the story of Aryans gaining control of southern lands by winning over aboriginal people of Indus valley as per some researchers (citation needed.)

7. Except Hanuman, Vibheeshana, Vyasa, Ashvathama, Baali and couple more: no individuals gained mastery over Yama, death or aging as per Vaishnava tradition. The South Indian Siddhars have Vallalar, Nimbarkacharya, Madhvacharya, Patanjali, Shankaracharya, Ramanujacharya, Vyaghrapada, Agastya and Nayanmars who attained mastery over death, decay and aging merely by chanting namah shivay.

8. The highest abode is goloka, Vrindavan, Vaikuntha, Eden Garden, Kailash as per various accounts. I haven’t come across them. I have only seen price tags for every pub and game show.

9. Burning effigies is poetic. Gandhi was killed by a Nathuram. Some call him Mohandas and others call him Rama. Natha tradition is snake charmers: boasting of Matsyendranath and Gorakshnath.

10. Ravana is most glorious of villains ever born in the indian subcontinent: Arjuna who had thousand arms was later portrayed as a disciple and friend of Vaasudev Krishna Yadav in the epic Mahabharata. If you delve deeper you would find a fight between this or that. Factions inside factions.

11. Buddhism and Jainism remain respected philosophies because of non-violence. Their highest products: beggars who appear like kings or kings who appear like beggars. Hinduism says: Rama and his in-law Janaka were both renunciates and jnanies of highest order. What about Ravana? If he was Brahm and living in one of the highest abodes: why did he fall? Laxmi or Sanatkumaras: represent virginity. Ravana along with his owner weren’t perfect.

12. Valmiki was an illiterate robber. He then became a devotee chanting Rama. Mara. Devil as per Buddhism. Saturn who eats up all his male children as per Nag Hammadi. The short first verse in Sanskrit which he wrote is said to portray the pain he felt vicariously for one bird: Craunch bird : the male. It was killed by a hunter. Orion. Death. Like Krishna was. The short note on Rama in Bhagvata says : the story is basically to highlight how lustful people have to suffer like Rama did. Note: Bhagvata by Vyasa doesn’t call Ravana lustful: it called Rama so. the hero of Ramayana. When I told this to the head of ashrama in Vrindavan: he got furious: himself being a householder: householders would go at any length to defend the premise: even if it’s to defy the literature they venerate and thrive upon.

The comment I read clearly stated that female bird didn’t have any lustful desire to procreate. Shiva in make and Shiv in female. Aviation. Rama and company steal flying plane which is faster than light( Einstein?) and it’s called Pushpak. They board it and yet they reach home after twenty days? Partying somewhere in between. Maybe.

13. Why was Lankavatara Sutra written? Buddhism was taking revenge on Hinduism. Scientists who had better understanding of time travel and machines. All Hindu codex was systematically corrupted: merely some life saving emergency material remained.

14. Which is the religion with most number of adherents? Christianity. Buddhism. Islam. Hinduism. Judaism. Zoroastrian religion. You have the winners. Who is running this show here? I am.

In the beginning was the beginning!

There was a dead dog lying on my way. There were flies on it. I heard hymns as I walked towards the PAN card office. He gave me a receipt but the excuses he was giving for the delay had no solid grounds. I had given him the details before applying and his optimism about getting it in time has been a curve with downward slope.

Lopsided excuses by the new prospective employer who was either not able to afford me or didn’t find my demonstration satisfactory. She gave lame excuses just to be polite and it’s third rejection this season which goes to show I have put in efforts and I handle rejection very well. Now schedule is not going to be hectic but I have to explore a new dimension. The kid had headache as yet another drunken brawl caused him stress and anxiety. His plight is felt deeply but I am only a tutor. I have heard all kind of talk but the low mindedness to which people around me have gone merely to ensure that I comply with the status quo would make these pages look filthier if filled with detail. These are the same people who utter name of Gandhi and Shiva day in and day out and they have their own versions of all principles to suit their need. Jumman, the labourer was holding a quarter of beer under the teen shade made for labourers. I interviewed him before entering this premise on May Day in 2018. Nothing seems to have changed for him it seems. I have not observed his mad wife who used to break bricks using her head. The way about the way is to keep walking here. As it turns out: the tea stall guy created the ruckus merely to be able to abuse openly. Similarly, the big scandal was created to make sure that all the attention is drawn to their safety. I kept walking to only hear whining people whine more loudly. I am happy to have not got lost in my overpowering ecstasy. It’s good that I can walk for a while. Rest later…

Exclamation mark!

I went on a regular walk. There was nothing to remember but a certain dancer did grab my heart with an unaltered force. Was it love? I knoweth not. I do wonder how it works. I used to be an obsessive compulsive user of exclamation mark: now I meet some people who have exclamation mark as the permanent expression on their faces. Today, I met someone who has an exclamation mark as her permanent expression. I wonder what makes permanent expressions on their faces. I have only one picture from my early childhood: it’s a worried child. Why do you think a child of one year old should have such a burden on his face? I knoweth not. If I had some explanation of how children grow I should have the answer to my question. Nothing really happened in my life. I was just watching others create wonders. I never had any story. They were all running after the money which was supposed to give them the happiness. It didn’t. My folly was to expect them to be as humane as I was. It was my only ailment. But I paid heavily. Nothing new happens in my life. They were all trying to win the favor of the crowd, the money to make them happy. I had a few questions which have evaporated now and a few rhymes which I should try to write later. But, still, my life is like a deep pool where one can’t see the bottom.
