BR hills! got me thinking

A nice weekend drive to B R Hills, deep into the beautiful forests simply got me thinking. It made me wonder how mankind has tried experiencing, learn, live, exploit nature - a mysterious biological system which we have no clue of or will we ever have! I had very few choices - either i had to dig the inferences of hundreds of people and their studies to know what it is, possibly to see how little they have discovered. Or i had to dive into some poets lively imaginations to feel some beauty of his words, plain pleasure. Or i could talk to people of the forest, see how they lived, what they felt and get some stories of their livelihood. Or simply rely on what little i feel. I stopped worrying and simply looked at my little son enjoying all the green around :-). Nature, i guess, it has its own purpose, mechanism of existence which we do not know deeply. It is designed to satisfy a larger need beyond the comprehension of 'man'. Hence nature cannot be investigated keeping man i...

Ideal, conceptual, actual dilemma!

I may sound stupid, but i was visualizing a graph! Hehe! On the Y! axis, i have a scale which moves from "Actual to conceptual to Ideal" and on the X axis i have series of "Life events"! Well the funda is funny! We strive the ideal, absorb in conceptual till we realize the actual and work back on every life event! So...ideal demands dreaming, visualizing the most perfect aspirations, to achieve this we engage conceptually (plan, execute, list, decide, be practical etc). Many times we refuse to accept the actual (real pain which exists within us, deprived feelings within ourselves, inability to perform simple tasks, inability to love, devote, getting tired etc.)So mostly we are engaged between ideal and conceptual till we are deprived of basic things like food and water! Managing this fluctuation consciously (not by being lost) becomes our daily challenge! If we include actual in our tackling of life events, we may be merrier! I know its funny! I will stop here.........

Preparing oneself to listen to Classical Music

Every time i listen to our classical music...i withdraw two steps to learn something new. One is blessed to listen and appreciate good classical music. An artiste presents his prayer and you are privileged to share a joy with his affection of sound. A mutual sharing of spirit. The performance starts with a silence(aroop,absolute absence,null,abyss of silence)...i feel the highest form of beauty...'the nothing'...i feel very happy....later the tanpura welcomes...(pa/ma..sa,sa,sa mix)....tells us there is a shruti....singular divine sound... Next comes the Sat/chit....concentrating on ones own self and spirit...getting conscious...getting aware...getting into life.....(preparing oneself to pray) then starts the 'alap'....the painting of the rag only by the 'swars' and 'shruti', the melody is the physical output and your inner spirit is responsible for beauty.....'alap' is an environment of great forms of sounds....goal is to picture the rag rightl...
