Intangible nothingness

Did you ever wonder why it is so easy to drift into the idle state of mind called nothingness? Because, nothingness of thought is like an intangible vacuum and has an enormous power to suck the forces of energy filled thought. Ever analyzed the awful and awesome consequences of intangible nothingness? Here we go.

In classroom - Punishment not less than standing through out the class. I am sure no body can be lost into the intangible nothingness when legs are soaring

In Yoga class- Congratulations! you are on your way to become parama yogi

In office meeting - Get ready to clean up your desk in the coming week

In the presence of a person who is adept in eating one's time and brain - A boon!

Superior

This poem is from the 'The Crescent Moon' by Rabindranath Tagore:
**********************************************************************************
Mother, your baby is silly!
She is so absolutely childish!

She does not know the difference between
the lights in the streets and the stars.

When we play at eating pebble,
she thinks they are realfood, and
tries to put them into her mouth.

When I open a book before her and
ask her to learn her a, b,c, she tears the leaves with her hand
and roars for joy at nothing; this is your baby's way of doing her lesson.

When I shake my head at her in anger and scold her
and call her naughty, she laughs and thinks it great fun.

Everybody knows that father is away,
but if in play I call aloud "Father,"
she looks about her in excitement
and thinks that father is near.

When I hold my class with the donkeys that our washerman
brings to carry away the clothes and I warn her that
I am the schoolmaster, she will scream for no reason and call me dada.

Your baby wants to catch the moon.
She is so funny; she calls Ganesh Ganush.

Mother, your baby is silly!
She is so absurdly childish!

Change for good……

Is not change the only constant thing in the Universe?
When the climate doesn’t change, where is the beauty of seasons?
When the technology doesn’t change, where is the reason to call the next generation advanced?
When we don’t leave home, how do we make friends?
When we don’t travel, where is the reason to embrace a new culture?
When the nature, things and situations are not perfect and need change then how can human beings be perfect? And why do people say to others ‘Don’t change. Be the same.’?I guess they intend, ‘don’t change for bad. Change for good.’

Our tryst with destiny

We all have our tryst with the destiny, but we don’t wait all our years for that one tryst to bask in the happiness of life.
- Self Quote

Found a nice quote this week:
How you take off has nothing to do with how high you will fly.

“The man who is a pessimist before forty-eight knows too much; if he is an optimist after it he knows too little”

"Here's to me and here's to you, and here's to love and laughter-I'll be true as long as you- not a single minute after."
