SPARE A THOUGHT.....

At the end of winning a rat race, we are still a rat.

the human crisis...as i see it...

at an individual level, deep down, our houses are on fire..but we are so numbed; it is a kind of anaesthesia we have administered ourselves through sorrow management mechanisms ( individual and collective) to create an illusion of security.

not our fault , really ; seems to have happened for whatever reason, where we have got disconnected from our cores...some critical link snapped...we are out of sync with life..every moment is a burden we carry and try to fill up...
not denying that there would be exceptions, either... a few might be enjoying dynamic linkages with their cores...and feel totally in sync, in harmony...

otherwise, everyone is an arjuna, riddled with conflict, numbed, paralysed....the difference as I see it, is that arjuna was alive to his pain, to his suffering, to his state of conflict..

and that made, krishna "happen" in his life...

an old indian adage, when the field is ready, the seed will come....

the question is whether we wanna keep escaping or face our realities squarely; our insecurities, our fears, our meaninglessness, boredom, indifference, begging for love, vulnerabilities, humiliation in defeats etc.....some of us are moving corpses, merely existing, not living; going through the motions because we have to...almost like a twig in the vast ocean...battered by the waves....of circumstance...
the moment we are in touch with ourselves "integrally", the whole of creation is on standby to help us...

Integrity is the key in evolutionary processes.

in my perspective, spiritual explores are not a pastime, as they tend to become; they are critical essentials to deliver us our basic rights of joy, love and bliss, should we feel a need for it.

but then, we have to feel the suffocation in our lives and feel the need to break free; into a space that is independent of circumstances...

also , we can share only what we have...happy, joyous people can spread the joy....by just being themselves........the energy can be infectious....
