- Nothing can resurrect you, my mind.....

most of the time the humans say that things are the way they are and they could have been different if they would have behaved differently in the past and thats why many a times,people rather say that if I were allowed to go back in the time and settle the matters, things would have been different.
I reject this idea.There lived a very generous king ruling over his huge empire.The king was very soft hearted and kind.On a noon,he saw a poor man going on feet in very hot summer.The king sent his servants and asked them to bring that man to him.King asked the poor man,"Where are you going in such a hot summer?"The man replied,"I had burried a pot containing 100 copper coins under a tree in the empire and I
need money badly"The melted down.He asked that man,"I give you 100 silver coins.Forget about those poor copper coins."The man happpily took the coins thanked the king and left the palace.To the surprise of king, he again after an hour spotted the same man again going on the feet.
The king asked his servants to bring him back to the palace.King said,"Why are you so much attacched to those poor copper coins?Come here, I give you a hundred gold coins"The man very happily took those coins, thanked king and promised him that he will not go again to get those copper coins.But again after an hour, the king found the same man,going towards the tree trying hard so that he is not seen by the king.Now the king roars."I will give you half of my empire.Would you please forget those coins?"The man very humbly says,"Sure your highness,but please take care that the
tree falls in my kingdom."
So, this is how the human psychology functions.Even if we are given chance to behave a hundred times,we are going to do the same thing.So, the repentance of humans'if I were allowed just once to go back in the time,the situation would have been different' is a lie.

- What I'd Do With a Million Dollars
-
book shelf project 1 ~ striatic {notes}
There is one thing which I always keep on buying.The monthly pocket-money is wasted majorly on it.The thing is books.The books are not our beast firends as many people say.Books are the people with whom we have friendliness.Friendliness is a much higher type of relation ship that friendship.Rather, friendliness is not at all a relationship.It is just something which exists...without any expectations.
So if somehow I get a million dollars, all will be spent on books.

- A 'Belief Breaker': The need of time...
-
Once upon a time, a very deadly monster came to a sage and asked him,"Please tell me what is an illusion".The sage told the poor creature to sit inside a near by cave and asked him to continuously think for two days that he had horns.The monster want inside the cave and closing his eyes started to think that he had grown horns.
Three days passed.The monster was still inside the cave.So after waiting for such a long time,the sage went to the cave and shouted,"Aren't you coming out my dear fellow? "The ghost shouted from inside,"For whole day I am trying to come out,but these horns are caught up in the roof of the cave so I am n0t able even to move an inch." The sage slapped him and said,"You fool! open your eyes!!Where are the horns?"
So I think what we need to invent is a 'Belief Breaker'.For thousands of years we are carrying over the head the same rotten horns of our belief and are caught up in the cave of darkness.I really think if humanity needs to invent something, it is this 'belief breaker'.
It is really difficult to understand to what extent belief system cripples us.Belief makes a person incapable of thought.One more point is that where there is belief,there is no knowledge.When one knows,there is no need of belief.Belief exists for something which you cannot understand.Belief is created where we are supposed to be kept blind deliberately.Rather than belief,I love the trust.

- 10/10/10-make it a memorable day..
-
10/10/10 must be a memorable day because it already has 3 ten pointers in it.I would like it to be most memorable day in my life by attainnig ten pointers on three fronts in my life-
1.A ten pointer on the scale of consciousness-
All misery disappears with the consciousness just as darkness vanishes with the emergence of light.Even a small candle can throw away the eternal darkness.In the same way, even a bit of consciousness can throw away all the misery in the life.To be a ten pointer on the scale of consciousness is a good way to make the day memorable.
2.A ten pointer on the scale of meditation-
Meditation the most needed yet the most neglected thing.Meditation is nothing but the sharpening the tool.The tool of consciousness.Life will be really bliss if meditation is considered as one of the basic needs.Meditation frees us from all the traps of our own psychology of which we a frequent prays.Meditation gives the vision to cut all the circles of illusion in the life.
3.A ten pointer on the scale of love-
Love is the thread that holds together all the pearls of this life.It is the lubricant which maintains flow of the life.Love is the bliss, love is the joy.Flowers blossom for the love birds sing for the love.The whole eternal game runs for the love.
A 10/10 score on all these fronts is enough to make whole life a memorable journey along with the 10/10/10.

- Replacement is not the answer........
-
Human shields greeted as they cross the border into Iraq
Change change change........this what we want.No one is happy with what he is.No one is contented with what he is.What everyone wants is change.Ya I appreciate change if it is in the form of transformation.Replacement is not the way.If we replace today, we will again need the replacement after some days.The very reason is that replacement is not the answer.
This attitude of man should be replaced rather than any of his body part.Man is not ready to change himself at any cost.The most tragic part is that man is on the verge of forgetting the fact that humanity is not a destination but a bridge.A constant transformation is needed.But very sadly,humanity has developed a tendency of being stagnant.
Friedrich Nietzsche had developed a term named 'super human'.He thought that the ultimate purpose of humanity is that every human should be like this super human.But I don't believe in becoming anything.For me,each person, as he is , is valuable.What we need is a bit of transformation, a bit of vision, a bit of meditation.
Rather than changing or replacing any of his parts,what humans need is a deep understanding of his each and every part.
