Reinventing the Mahatma

-
Outside this posh theatre at Churchgate a makeshift bookstall has been set up and there are many curious people buying...

The hall is playing Lagey Raho Munnabhai and the books are about Gandhiji and his message...reinventing the mahatma...

Neat Paradox!

-
Holmes had his cocaine...Einstein had his violin...

I need to figure out what I want to "have" soon...keeping the mind free when you're taking a break isn't easy :-)
But it's necessary to optimise performance when not taking a break :-)

Neat paradox!

In my mind

-
It’s all in my mind…
Not only the hells I suffer,
The interjecting heavens as well…

All in my mind…
The angst, those fears, the nightmares,
My dreams, joys, unfettered rapture-
All in this mind;

In its cradle arise my questions,
And in its crevices are hidden the answers I seek…

The creator, the upholder, the destroyer,
All in my mind…

The universe, just a creation of this mind-
Set the mind free…

The Uncertain Game of Patience

-
All preparations done,
Matters taken care of,
All possibilities carefully thought through,
All simulations tested and run...

Then the uncertain game of patience...

The ability to just sit and wait,
That rare faculty of doing nothing,
Cutting yourself off...as intensely as you were jointed,
To not undo the doings in moments of mindless impulse...

This uncertain game of patience...
