I got the domain narayanaswamys.com but what he heck do I do?

Stupidity, all there is to be said is there in he title.

Science<-->Spirituality<-->Anthropology

Three things can never beeng (intention to mean be and been and being) in Harmony as they are not harmonized as yet I believe. So if we were to draw a venn diagram of these along with another category others for now, what are we left with? What is the domain? I don't really know if anyone has answered this. Also, is anything a pure sub-set of the other, one can keep guessing I realize. But if I asked maybe a Scientist, Spiritual Leader or an Anthropology guy all would say their pursuit is the real thing and mostly would have something to support each of their theories with complete belief. Wait! what would be conviction then. When I do mention that any of their pursuit seems ineffective am I being ignorant. If I don't care about anything and won't be a purist would it affect me?

Another thought that's screaming and making all that noise in my head right now is how much of religions that are a part of the Spirituality set mythology and how much of it is history? As a Hindu, Muslim or Christian how are we interpreting them as an individual? or are we interpreting anything at all? or we just assuming there was god who manifested as a human that we all humans relate to; could feel, could walk with and breathe? and was on a mission to make us realize faith, our being and our purpose?

As far as Hindu mythology/history (assume as suitable to your understanding and realization of the journey of YOUR life) everything is anachronistic with my current understanding, it may exactly not be a religion also, I assume it to be a way of life but with other religions thrown in, they too are but a way of life but does that mean we assume one to be of greater value and others to be a sub-set of lesser value? If Hindu mythology can be put down on a scale Islam and Christianity and other religions may fall on some blocks of time-line and would be of some considerable scale with most of the current understanding and date ranges that we humans have interpreted maybe?

In all of these what I have tried to analyse for my own sake is if things discussed in some scriptures would still boil down to paths of realisation addressing the way to be a human worth being provided the most im-probabilistic chance to appear in these scheme of things as space, stars, planets? Hinduism may provide some more questions to me like if karma, dharma, bhakti, gyaana concepts are really the maarga (paths) that humans are in pursuit of? I am sure other religions may have boiled down to similar pithy definitions I assume that may be the tip of an iceberg I have managed to see at the horizon with respect to one religion?

Also, the most current state my mind is in I assume Hinduism may well have been a non-religion brought out of non existence (nothing) just as space as a concept is to the concept of Universe in the visible and physical manifestation and as historically fact verifiable as religions such as Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism or others are?

Life of simplicity

Be it simplicity in your thoughts, actions, needs, you solve many a problems.
Being Vegetarian
Being Devout
Being Human
Being Happy
Being Pleasant
Being un-selfish
Being un-competitive
Being a teetotaller
That's all I can remember, but if you try you can be probably simple in anything that is, maybe or there!

A fever of few degrees

In the past week three people randomly asked me if I ever plan to do an MBA. Of the three times, the first time I said No, the second time I expressed my opinion and analysed it loudly on why I do not want do an MBA and the third time I announced an alternative I was most likely to choose.

I want to study again to be a student
I want to learn again to be a dissident
I want to live again without an accident
I know most know/feel/think it is impudent
I am probably improvident
I fully know that I may not be a transcendent
But too many 'I's' to begin with would make 'U's' and 'They's' think I am over-confident
But in the confines it does not create a dent
(Definitely not doing a word list here!)

Last among the many humans was the one with hunger to learn, who learnt enough to channelize it and create a course called MBA, make it a commodity, he certified and thus you are an MBA as thou may be engineers.

This argument does not hold if you were a doctor, scientist or of the arts among others, because learning from experiences and mistakes are worth their matter(weight?) in gold.

If MBA or engineering degrees have case studies etc. which they most definitely do have nowadays, they surely teach you things quickly, effectively and efficiently at an application level very much like the other professions giving you a strong reason to do an MBA.

I personally respect an MBA as one will have an newer opportunities (role, earning, learning, knowledge and skills etc.), but to 'live' in this word and learn, 'do' what you want and earn money(fast or eventually), 'gather' knowledge, 'develop' one's personality and skills are all accepted in action during the course of ones life as much as they are accepted in the English language with the action verbs within the apostrophes mentioned above.

I will only conclude by saying love, live and be happy, healthy and wealthy. Also, last but not the least your satisfaction is the key, you could be a monk, beggar, politician or a business man/woman and be happier or as happy as you imagine your self to be after an MBA.

Why should one feel pulsated when alive

Wonder, why some of us may feel unenthusiastic about day to day activities. We are alive by one of the strongest support of statistical theories of permutations (that's why maybe it has a mutation in the word by itself). To let the feeling of life sink in, to try to be happy every moment, spread happiness around us, arrest negativity, bolster the positivist in each of us and for a moment indulge ourselves in this mundane stream of thought. I bet you would feel energized the way I did, do some crazy little acts to cheer yourself up, pull your being out of lull.

This instance that provoked this blog, I indulged; in music, in cleanliness, in consciousness of my surroundings and fellow beings and yes it did strike me. What struck me was a breeze that wasn't there, a tingle that only nicotine usually brings in, maybe a sudden and controlled release of dopamine too, which served the purpose and I swear I felt my blood flow, it felt like a flood or ever if I would have been stuck in a strong current of a river that would definitely dump me into an ocean and only then let me off it's hook.

Somethings I then realized, are better always fresh, the most important of those things being you, both the physical as well the inner soul (transcendental as it may sound). I don't know what I believe but definitely being an agnostic would be difficult given the complexity of the permutation of this earth, space and my lottery of existence.

Destitutes. What do you do when you encounter one?

Finding a destitute has always pulled out a few questions naturally from my insides that none of us have probably tried to address. Trying to list out what or who a destitution or a destitute respectively is should be the first task: 

• The first and most prevalent kind are the poor 
• The next kind are the sick and poor with or without anyone (be it kith and kin or an organization etc.) to take care of them 
• The last and third kind I could think of as of now are addicts both poor and rich with or without anyone to take care of them

What would anyone of us treat them like or behave if we were to ever encounter such people. I bet that, all you would be worried about in that point of time is nothing ever related to them, but is this human? is this what the world has come to? or what human beings have taught themselves to shield from? is this rational? is this something to do with evolution and the survival of the fittest? is this what society wants? is this what you want your child to do?

Think of this. If a man/woman is hurt in an accident and is critical and profusely bleeding on the road and might die, would you or would you not try to help her/him in this situation? Is this different from that of encountering a destitute who could or could not be helped?

Luckily today there is someone or the other whose old (ironically as people would term it today, as misanthropic) conscience kicks in and helps, but the day is not far when this conscience shall never come out from a more evolved person/society at some later point in time. We have a government that can't manage a population, that can't promise some descendant of a citizen at the time of independence who subscribed to equality, fairness and justice. Let me also remind you, it might not be just India alone, there maybe other countries that have this dilemma on their minds, but do they falter 90% of the times. I guess some have given this a fair consideration and hence the statistic of 90% holds. 

In conclusion: Yes, the world is better doomed and I hope it was made for that, you may prefer to call it Kali Yuga, Apocalypse or whatever. Again not for a moment I would ask you to think and not ask me this question as to whether I am being too rational to be real and surviving in this world or if I am just to negative and should stay cheered up and positive and be as blind as I had better been.

Discredits: A drunken seemingly very poor, disillusioned man and also seeming hurt on the face and fallen in the First Class (note the capital 'F' and 'C' and that's what most of our mindsets are really all about, being selfish and banishing worry about others and thinking only about ones own comfort and satisfaction) compartment of a Bombay local; with his back supported on one of the walls that are generally there on either side of each bogies entrance. Worst still was that he was awake, seemed highly drunk, writhing in pain and also having a matchbox in the palm of his hand as if his fingers were hurting and he could not get himself to hold the pack in his palm and with an open pack of beedi strewn on the floor. He looked upset or was drunk or was doing something terribly wrong, 'HANGING' around in this fashion in the first class compartment I do not know. But what struck me and would and could not forget from that instance on, was the blank lost look on his face; of dejection, of emotion, of pain and/or a state of drunkenness that his eyes echoed? or was it something beyond an solution? Or is it an itching in the form of a being just lying there totally ravaged, two feet below near the two feet of mine?

The Full Toss

Full toss, full stop, fools tossed. Hip Hip Hooray!
