Admitting the Obvious


The Obvious is for the eye, for the ear, for the nose, for the Heart and for the soul. There is no obvious for the Brain. The mind needs reasons, reasons which are not always there. Things are sometimes so obvious that we don't even look for reasons but reasons is all you'll seek if you apply your minds to it.

So often there is a strife between the mind and the heart; between what you think you want and what you actually want. There are somethings we would love to hate; but as it turns out not everything(living or non-living) that you would love to hate allows you to hate it. In loving to hate, somewhere you miss the "hate" and only the rest remains.

This is a recipe for an absolute anarchy within. A constant struggle between the mind and heart, between love and hate. This is what makes admitting so difficult. In your want to hate; we do everything possible to ignore. The mind hates to give in to the heart. It's like losing a bit of the self esteem. Losing out on what you thought was a strong will.

There are so many things in our lives that we shouldn't like but still we end up liking it. Finding reasons could be difficult for the brain. People who like to live with their pseudo-likings; would love to live in their alternate reality than to admit that they haven't been able to have a control over themselves. For them the day day they do realise is a great setback.

Obviously they can't live in this perpetually but the longer the extension the greater the chance of losing which could probably have been their greatest treasure. One shouldn't bring in his ego into it because once the ego comes in; it's hard to let it go. Admitting is actually a great virtue to have. Analyse and then admit; it wont cost you to keep touch with the reality.

“Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult.”

He who knows how to be Poor knows Everything

In today's materialistic world, being poor is the worst thing that can happen to you. Being educated, being moralistic and being principled amount to almost nothing if you are poor. There are no opportunities to come out of that quagmire. Someone who has been through this and has somehow overcome the mountain of difficulties, would possess incredible amounts of determination, will and belief in his ability. Such talent is rare but often results in producing the greats. Being poor teaches you time management, how to make the most of your time to survive. It teaches you adaptability, how to adjust to the extremes of living conditions. It pushes you to extend your boundries and grow farther. It makes you emotionally and mentally strong. Someone who has been facing defeat after defeat but still gets up everytime to face adds so many facets to his personality. You learn only from your mistakes. If you have never faced defeat, it would be hard to survive. To relate to my own l

Belief in Virtue is more important than Virtue itself

Just pause for a second from your daily life. The life that you are so desperately trying to organise, to make worthy, to make grand. The future plans that you are putting together, the aspiration and the fantasies; put them aside and think about this- "We spend a lot of time trying to organize the world, we build clocks and calendars and we try to predict the weather but what part of our life is truly under our control. What if we choose to exist purely in our reality of our own making, does that render us insane. If that does, isn't that better than a life of despair?" Rationality and irrationality is purely subjective. Also what's better is only a matter of how deeply you apply your thoughts to it. If being happy and content is all that you want in life, then isn't living an insane life in a world of your own, the perfect thing for you. The problem with us is that we don't know what we actually want, and when we do, we hate to accept them and instead

The God Delusion

People all over the world create delusions around themselves, a persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidences. In India alone we have 33 crore Gods to choose from, for the 100 crore population; a sort of personalised delusion for everyone. In addition to that there are crores of God men. The social structure is so formed that it makes us oblivious to the delusion. We continously doubt our own abilities, and associate results to the blessings of some higher beings. The degraded self-esteem is what pushes you deeper into the delusion. To quote Douglas Adams - "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?" The belief that the world was created by some God and that everything in this world is His creation is fundamentally flawed. If he created everything than who created Him. Putting the creation of everything under the ambit of one entity was to simplify the exp
