It is not unknown that most precious ideas are still mystifying
Only barely the consciousness touches the realm of life, an existential compromise
Little ideas self-destruct after forming certain objects to fill the void
Veiled storytelling- only to hide the scepticism that arises from uncertainties
Every day it is a struggle to find new ways to manipulate the reality
It is unsustainable, the core values cannot withstand the pressures of eternal
Little victories, the essential beliefs, and fearful acceptance of a future
All that has been given away in the rush of life- the volatile ideas continue
~Amitav
Little victories are more than enough to make it through the day/life.

Humans can think beyond the sublunary and can achieve much more than that. We have the capability to transcend this stifling boundary. When I used the term ‘small victory’ in my poem, in this context, was used in a censuring tone.

It depends on what you consider big. Little ones can lead to big ones. We should celebrate each, however small. We can’t take them for granted or underestimate them. Every little victory counts.

In the continuum of things our role is quite minuscule. Yes, we have the consciousness to think and create, but we also know how to destroy, that too without reason. We have to share the responsibility rather than considering our role to be supreme to stabilise the universe. There is so much we still not know, and speculate upon, compared to the knowledge we really have. We have to extend the vision to see beyond all this. Continuous learning and understanding the universe and our relationship with it is the ultimate necessity.

Agreed. I was referring to our personal little victories. What is big for me might be small for you and vice versa.

That’s true, I will not deny the day to day realities that we have to live with . I was referring to the poem and in which context I was thinking. This is a collective thinking of all the possibilities that philosophy and psychology has to offer or prompts me to think. Many ideas are displaced and disintegrate before new consciousness emerges.

Amitav, I enjoyed reading your post about ideas. I have this craving to pursue knowledge and ideas for my own ends, but I wonder if it will lead to anything but my own pleasure. I have been thinking about the reason for acquiring wisdom. Your post spoke to that.

Thank you so much. Knowledge and wisdom will not fail you, ever. It all starts with self-knowledge, self-awareness, and then choose the path deemed suitable to reach a destination. Knowledge is eternal, there’s so much to learn every day, every second. Through queries and delving into the world of knowledge we have to break the contrived boundaries of this worldly reality. I am happy that you wish to pursue that path and you ave my sincere wishes.
