Wisdom cannot be imparted. Wisdom that a wise man attempts to impart always sounds like foolishness to someone else … Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.-Hermann Hesse Continue reading Wisdom
Carelessly bypassing reality As if time has no hold on the truth A desperate rush, resembles a tornado Threatening the core of existence Nothing is memorable anymore Truths are mere experiments In a controlled environment Suspicious ingredients of warped world Like a double helix being fixed With new information, a cautionary tale Of being taught to ignore the signs Many, many more to arrive, devious … Continue reading Ignore
It is the rare fortune of these days that one may think what one likes and say what one thinks. – Tacitus Continue reading On Freedom
We live in a world of constant noise which captures our minds even when we are not aware of it. -Joost A. M. Meerloo Continue reading Taken Over by Noise
Utter hopelessness while trying to convince them, a witless crowd Riled up and antsy, devolution of ideologies, battling perceptions and personal demons There used to be a profound foundation once, the ability to stand independently and face the world Face the forces, the rattled waves of expletives from a giant space ruled by dark minds Listening to the forced narratives is like a continuous scream … Continue reading Stridency

Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. -Marcus Aurelius When there are immense possibilities much beyond our ability to comprehend the truth of this existence, there are also greater chances of being mislead with false perceptions that have been etched deeply in the psyche of every age of existence. Just when we think that … Continue reading The Opinionated Truth
Grappling with time and a world that blooms in an astral pattern Occasional dreams of the truth that bends the reality of this existence Minor jolts along the crisscrossing fault lines, like a giant palm showing the fate Mapping with the universe in the most dense night of trembling fear Dreams are replaced in the hysteria of a transforming reality, sleep is still a delusion … Continue reading Hysteria
People abhor criticisms and people who have been thoughtfully criticizing (they are never addressed as critics, but unwanted judgemental people), pointing to a course correction for humanity; be it in educating more than the institutionalized lectures, to understand human feelings more compassionately, to communicate with people without partisan views, who can enhance your knowledge and vice versa. Remember, before any religion, politics and business, it … Continue reading Why the Criticisms
A kind of transition is possible only when the world is asleep; it is not one can dream of or anticipate. Even the sharpest intuitions fail to perceive the outcome of such a change. There is nothing contrived about the event that occurs. The abstract images gather, change colour and accomplish a new reality. While worrying about the spaces and crowded realities, there seems to … Continue reading Transition and Reality
Some persuasive realities take something away from me An experimental sleep that I cannot escape The restlessness arises from such a torpor A difficult reality hardens the senses- they do not believe the metaphors Stories are read with expressionless eyes Feeble intellectualism births a stubborn conjecture Discordant voices unsettle the verses Languages speaking of life in a rhythm recedes Exposing the vulnerable world’s meandering patterns … Continue reading Persuasion
