The beautiful Quartet

 He turned on the switch and was mesmerized by an ultimate multi-dimensional out of the world piece of music reminding one of a grand Quattro of souls from remote corners of the world !

He stepped or was rather catapulted into the exquisite maze and before he knew his staccato accelerating steps in the grooves reproduced such a harmonious mixture of sounds that his ears found it hard to believe that such music could exist.
Finally at the end of the maze he was astounded to meet in person, like a thunderbolt, four favourite personages of his dreams that is Douglas Hofstadter, P G Wodehouse, Richard Bach and Albert Einstein reminding him in a way Roll over Beethoven of Beatles.

Keep smiling - Nobody is ugly

  It is about a poor stupid kid who went astray in his thinking when he was just 7-8 years old. Once he was examining himself in the mirror & what he found he did not like. He took another faltering step destined to give him shocks of his life much later in life. He decided to pick up a hand mirror & examined his profile too. His dread turned into a conviction especially when he saw how his lips puckered when he smiled or laughed. He saw it as his duty to present the best of aesthetics to the world. This lead him to take a ghastly decision not ever more to smile and laugh openly and heartily. From 1983-90/1, it was all - career, family especially, going great guns for him in the context of health, wealth, wisdom. He had a cute son too. He was lucky and able in every way. Later after having borne the aftermath of the childhood horror around the age of 30 when everything got shattered because of being hit by terrible depression in Paris, though by this time he had been able t...

Resolving not to look back

According to the Gita it seems there is a spiritual sky or world apart from our material world, not visible readily to our imperfect senses. It seems that the material world is only a quarter of the spiritual world. The other interesting point to be noted is that - as the material world is full of miseries linked to birth, death, ageing, injury and disease, the spiritual world is completely rid of these. The bodily conception of life is based on the fact that life is there while the body is living but the soul which is an integral part of life is eternal and never dies like the body. To attain the spiritual sky or the lord, referred to as Krishna in the Gita the living entity must serve the super soul as an eternal servitor. In fact that is the Sanatana Dharma which is not a religion actually but the most natural occupation of the living entity. Serving the lord in every way while remembering him brings satisfaction and happiness to the spirit soul just like it does to each organ of th...

Wanderer

She was a puny bit of the whole conglomeration. Though so tiny she could move. She was moving at breakneck speed with so many others like her and they all seemed like long lost sisters. When she became conscious of herself she was swimming away to glory to she did not know where. She had vague memories of being part of a bigger whole where she was going round in endless circles with many others like her. But those memories had faded away fast when she found herself a microscopic part of this exodus. They all did not know where they started and where was the end of this mass migration. In her awareness there was little bit of purpose to all this. As if all their tiny efforts added up to great constructive actions of a big body. But apart from this vague idea she had no inkling about this body of which they all were just parts. There were other ideas floating around that they were all relays of forces which made movements of parts or organs in the body possible. And that there were many ...
