What do we relate to the most? I mean when look to define yourself for your own self, there is something you identify with, right? The thought, the mind or the images that keep flashing about. Milk? Idli? Pakodas? Paranthas? (Foods of India is the theme)
An interesting concept from the Indian (or desi depending on where you live) wisdom. Ahamkara is a word that means I-ness. It often makes a mistake by identifying itself with the impressions on the mind. It is said this association that gives rise to the psychological Ego or the apparent individuality. (A more thorough exposition is http://www.swamij.com/fourfunctionsmind.htm)
So the moral of the story (or kitsch) is observe the mind and the thoughts and think over it...or maybe dont 'think' about it...hmm, explore!
When all thoughts
Are exhausted
I slip into the woods
And gather
A pile of shepherd’s purse.
...
Like the little stream
Making its way
Through the mossy crevices
I, too, quietly
Turn clear and transparent.

I know I know..."ye kya likh raha hai yaar ye?" Lekin bhalu mere saath....bear with me.
For a moment, when I read bhalu mere saath, I thought you were referring to me :-D
Nice one babey, quite something that just you can come up with.
On a more "Ayn Rand"-ish note, Ahamkaar, bole to, I-ness.. ye bhi kya kamaal ki cheez hai, it makes the world go round.. even the people with a more handicapped ambition, like us :-)
kya gandu pana hai ye...kuch hindi mein likho...nahin to apna ek alag blg bana lo kahan aise bakchodhi kar sak jo sirf tum logon ko samajha aati hai.....;)))))
hum desi logon ko desi bhasha mein desi daal chawal hi samajh aata hai sirf.......
but ek baat nahin samajh aati mujhe...tum saale zindagi mein apni philosophy kyun nahin banate...idhar udhar apni life ko define karne ke liye text kyun dhoondte rehte ho :))
Bhaiya shally, tum gunde ho to likhne main sankoch to hai, lekin try mar hi lete hain:)
Ye to desi dal chawal ka hi hissa hai...usi ka masala hai yeh ;)
Shayad definition har jagah possible nahi hai...discovery bhi zaroori hai :)
Tum bhi likho kuch...umeed hai jaldi hi...
bhaiya hamara kuch likh paana sambhav nahin hai....
actually mein agar main wahan kahin tum logon ki tarah hota to aisi discovery ki jaroorat padti shayad...but yahan to saala time hi nahin hai ye sab sochne ka bhi....kisi aur ka likha hua padhna to bhool hi jaooo
to tum log likhte raho aur dhoondte raho....but hoga kuch nahin bata raha hoon ;)
main tab tak agla ghoomne ka plan banata hoon...:)))
Hum bhi agla ghommne ka plan bana rahe hai..dhoort baniye....
vasu...tu local hai....kitna bhi tujhe desi vedeshi ki taraf le jaooo...tu wahin baniye punjabi pe aa jaata hai....
waise sach to yeh hai ki mujhe bhi usi mein maja aata hai ;))
lekin sabse jyada harami vasu hai....pardes jake doston ko bhool gaya hai...acche bure waqt ke saathi isse yaad nahin rahe..ye insaan nahin raha ab
saalon ko blog mein likhne ka time hai but mail likhne ka time nahin..
abey blog mein idhar udhar se CUT&PASTE karke likhna is very HS in US these days ;)
tum saaale LS rahe ho aur rahoge.....jaao aaj hi jaake us RAND ke 2-4 novel khareed ke laooo...aur usme se lines yahan likh daalo...fir dekho tum kitne hip and hapenning kehlaooge ;)))
Sriv dogala aadmi. Haggu..
Kabhi hamarii taraf, kabhi shelly kee taraf..
decide karle..
Shelly tune kabhi sriv and daddu kee community ke baare mein kuch nahi kaha..
yaar teri kaun ki buraiyan milni band ho tab to kisi aur kaum pe concentrate karoon ;) .....bloddy punjabis :)
