I could die one day. Listening to a dog conversation.

It's a shame to be scared of one's own nakedness. 
Go the 'Jain' way. All the way.

To kya hua jo vo bewafa nikli
Tuje pata kyu nahi tha ae dil

One day, Indian parents will not educate their kids to find a job followed by a woman followed by having kids followed by becoming grandparents and dying. They will just tell them, 'go and be sexy day on day. Long term is a fuckin joke.' Logical error. How is this my dream?!

To love indifference.....

Trying to love indifference is like expecting a rock to reciprocate. Incomplete.

There are 2 kinds of people. One, live life above the surface. Two, live life beneath the surface. 

Both find each other weird.

Everything changes. In hindsight.

ek zamana tha jab sharmo haya

4 baj gaye party abhi baki hai
mai talli mai talli mai talli ho gyi

Live a great Story. and recent thoughts.

Oh, screw it. there are 2 ways to live life.1. be safe, scared, hesitant. 2. Be brave, daring, all out. the latter is replete with risk and heartburn but imagine, 50 years down the line, which one would make a wonderful story to talk about.

you have got one story to create. live a great story!

--------------------

When you fully trust a person without any doubts, you finally get one of the 2 results.

A person for life or....

A lesson for life

--------------------

crying is okay. even for men, just do it in a quiet corner. 
being human, after all. 

-----------------------------

it's almost inhuman effort NOT to return a smile. smile at people you think who don't like you. let them be inhuman ;) haha! nasty. Of course, it will brighten people you like

----------------------------

i have believed with conviction for many years that man is a bundle of emotions. off late, however, i feel that there are exceptions who are born without the bundle.

-------------------------

you know what 'hurt' is? it's the loss of expected happiness. incomplete.

Recent Thoughts

vakt to kuch guzara hamne...
vakt hi guzar paye

na tumne hame samajhne ki koshish ki
na hum tumhe samajh paye



Imagine a world where we could choose what we wanted.


"oh, there was so much he could say. 
only if it would matter
his words arose within him
and then, quietly
went scatter'

tu hai jaisa mujhko vaisa dikhna.

kabhi kabhi meri apni hi muskaan mujse puchti hai
tum itna kyu muskura rahe ho
kisko budhu bana rahe ho


don't let the blues get you, for long. find red soon.


If you gonna say it anyway...
why say less?!

what a shame it is...
you loved
and didn't express.


don't go with the flow. don't go against the flow. you haven't a clue. it's the flow which takes care of it. 

People will tell you. there ain't a reason. for being unusual. scratch the surface, if they will. human emotions tend to like hide and seek.

Ishq Ibadat hai and some recent thoughts

ishq ibadat hai
bas ishq hi ibadat hai

jab tera sar ibadat me jhuke 
bas itna khayal karna
ke tera khuda ibadat ke layak hai
ibadat ko ruswa na karna

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Keep your smiles and laughter the only barometer of your success. Success is happiness. If you aren't smiling and laughing enough, perhaps you need to find another job, career or another person, to love.

Some people think i am mad the way i live my life. what they don't realize is that i think they are terribly retarded. it's a mutual feeling. xoxo

---------------------------------------------------------

I think the only way to respect someone's work is to be willing to pay for it. even if that person is your blood relative. and i am talking about passionate work, not mercenary work.

------------------------------------------------------------

What is permanent. i mean wtf?! considering everything is temporary, just the duration of temporariness differs. enjoy the temporary but while in it, enjoy it 100%.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

In India, so many young girls aspire to be teachers totally motivated by their desire to be able to raise their kids due to the flexible time schedule of teaching profession. It has nothing to do with the idea if they like to teach at all. Boys are pushed into professions where expectantly they will make good money to raise a family and find an arranged wife. i mean what do we think is the purpose of existence, 'to get married at whatever cost and have kids to subsequently show off to the neighborhood?' sorry, not impressed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

khud se hi kyun hai khafa tu
chala chal jahan tera dil le chale
kuch aisa hi dastoor hai is dil ka bhi
ye bhi nahi samajh pata ke chale to kahan chale

i have finally discovered what i like about myself the most. besides my surreal pair of eyes, it's the sound of my laughter. of course, i have always been a fan of my modesty.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since comedy has happened to me either as a dabbler or as an audience, i have lost a lot of emotional weight, popularly called, baggage. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think the most 'duh' thing one can say when one has nothing to say is this. God bless you. I am God's agent.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The only way to live more is to do more of what you are born to do. how do you figure what you are born to do? It's easy for you, much easier than it is for others. You enjoy doing it, it doesn't feel like work and thrills you when you do it well. Do what you are born to do. hey, screw the past. 'they' didn't know it. if you think you should have known this at the beginning of your life, well, just assume it's the beginning of your life/

happy Sunday!

The signs!

Thought of a day I thought would bring some nice news! That did not happen. The signs were propitious. Turned out to be the opposite.

the signs may be ominous or the signs may be propitious! the signs mean nothing!!!!

May be you are smarter


"may be you are smarter and were born to be so. may be you understand yourself. i don't. i don't understand why the fuck men do what they do, many times that includes myself and why don't they act otherwise. why some are intelligent and some are dumb. some are rich and some are poor. some die early and some live long. some 'happen' to think of ideas to build companies and some cannot muster the courage to get away from the shackles of their family and society. why an idea that seems impractical to one excites the other. we all seem to be actors to me, acting in an illusion of free will as if we are somehow creating our thoughts and reality.

"may be you have been smarter. i see no one deserving any credit and i see nobody deserving any blame. may be i was born to be this way"

I do not decide a thing

‎"I do not decide a thing. things pop up from i don't know from where and i do them. 


Considering all that i have done, i feel that i was born to be a paragon of terrible decisions and their consequences."

Peace and Happiness!

"Peace is the faucet from which the fountain of happiness emerges."

I have always asked and probed externally and within myself what makes people happy. I have asked myself what makes me happy.

Fortunately or unfortunately, human life is replete with contradictions. Nature or the invisible piper of Einstein or the GOD of the rest of humanity has left so many gaps in our understanding that we will probably never be able to answer them and reach a cerebral understanding of 'why things are the way they are?'

I was looking for happiness and I have found peace.

I am not struggling with all of unanswered questions anymore. I know that they will not be answered. There are powers which control the sun, the beaches, the rivers, the entire constellation of planets and galaxies and here we are, thinking that we are the ones who dictate the course of our lives.

Albert Einstein would have known when he said:


"I do not at all believe in human freedom in the philosophical sense…. Schopenhauer’s saying, ‘A man can do what he wants, but not will what he wants,’ has been a very real inspiration to me since my youth; it has been a continual consolation in the face of life’s hardships, my own and others’, and an unfailing wellspring of tolerance. This realization mercifully mitigates the easily paralyzing sense of responsibility and prevents us from taking ourselves and other people too seriously; it is conducive to a view of life which, in part, gives humor its due." 


I have been studying the functioning of human mind and also the circumstances surrounding them for myself and people who are close to me for the last year and half.


I, for one, am convinced that my decisions or choices have been influenced else where do my thoughts and desires emerged from? Why did I face the kind of experiences I have?


I do not understand and I have no answers. I know know that nothing else could have been. I could not have thought differently or acted differently and similarly neither could have you. 


Accept. Enjoy :)

those who said no to me

"i am thankful to all the people who said no to me. it has helped me realize that human judgement is not rational."

humor and uncertainty

humor is the best antidote to uncertainty.




there is a way to enjoy life. it comes from the understanding that it cannot be understood.

the vision of an entrepreneur

the intensity of a philosopher

the curiosity of a child

the friendship of a few cherished friends

the love of someone special

I consider it a duty...

'I consider it a duty to be happy. A duty to myself and to everyone I meet. I want 


to be an example of the postulate that it's good to be alive and I am willing to do 


whatever it takes to prove the theory. I promise.' - 




living through the highs and lows is a part of life

smiling through the highs and lows is the art of life.

Amar on Money


 2 metaphors to clarify my perspective on money:


1. Money is like health, the more you have, the more you can do with it. but it's not the reason for existence.


2. Money is like sex. If you are having it, you can focus your attention on other things. If you aren't, there is nothing else you think about.

Understanding Life

Life can only be understood backwards. However, it must only be lived forwards.

The great Einstein

thoughts by Albert Einstein


"Life is a preparation for the future; and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none."

"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."- Albert Einstein

When asked how he came up with the theory of relativity, Albert Einstein said I asked myself childish questions and proceeded to answer them. ~ Einstein

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.

But All was not lost!

But early one morning the fever left me as mysteriously and unexpectedly as it had come, and I fell into a quiet sleep. Then my parents knew I would live, and they were very happy. They did not know for some time after my recovery that the cruel fever had taken my sight and hearing; taken all the light and music and gladness out of my little life.

But I was too young to realize what had happened. When I awoke and found that all was dark and still, I suppose I thought it was night, and I must have wondered why day was so long coming. Gradually, however, I got used to the silence and darkness that surrounded me, and forgot that it had ever been day.

I forgot everything that had been except my mother's tender love. Soon even my childish voice was stilled, because I had ceased to hear any sound.

But all was not lost! After all, sight and hearing are but two of the beautiful blessings which God had given me. The most precious, the most wonderful of His gifts was still mine. My mind remained clear and active, "though fled fore'er the light."

Today

Consciousness ... It doesn't exist in the past or in the future, but in the present. And this is where we decide how we're going to get on with the rest of our lives.

Life is always being reborn, and with each "conscious moment" comes a new beginning.

It's just like they say, "Today is the first day of the rest of your life."
