The ocean riding the ship

With each tick of the ticking clock
The ship hurls back to the dock
Back and forth, waves make it rock
Gently by the sea

As wind and waters calm
Sun retreating in horizon's arms
Stars are calling, with twinkles warm
It is time, now, to just be!

Soon will come the anchor time
Ship will be dropped amidst the tide,
All the storms and breezes fine
Just a memory true yet not

Before this ship drops us and goes
For a few moments, lets drop the rows
Of doings, becomings
and all the knows
And anchor, rejoice,
in the ocean within...
traversing itself









Yes, yet!

Yes the body is temporary
Yet there is pain at innocent demise...

Yes the world is a play of infinite
Yet when faced with inhuman horror there is repulsion not delight

Yes laughter and tears come and go
Yet mind fights, does not let it be just so

Yes there is no real joy outside
Yet the pleasure-addict mind does not, within, abide

Yes following fun only brings misery
Yet following knowledge
(just) seems not easy

Yes thoughts are ever changing
Sometimes foolish sometimes wise,
Yet mind-silly! holds on, to premise

Yes words cannot convey
the truth that IS
Yet your words take me there,
to the source of ease...

Yes sometimes I may not hear you,
my mind keeps me quite far
Yet you know what it is
That beats in my heart

Yes we may not
always be together,
Yet every moment with you
is a treasure forever

Yes happiness comes only
when one drops 'always'
Yet each moment, each breath,
pleasant or unpleasant,
is a testimony
of your beautiful presence,
your grace !

leap says Alice


leap beyond fantasy and life gets boring
leap beyond inertia and freedom is flowing

leap beyond love and there maybe some fear
leap beyond that sensation and faith brings you to the now and here.

leap beyond yesterday knowing the illusion of tomorrow
leap beyond the doubts and you will see no sorrow

leap beyond commitment and see how there is confusion!
leap beyond limitedness, you are both the solvent and the solution!

leap beyond the words and see the silence bright!
leap beyond the silence and dissolve in the bliss of light!

leap beyond vikalpa into the panorama of possibilities
leap beyond self-critique and unleash your amiabilities!

leap beyond postponement and the perilous procrastination,
leap beyond craving into the fire of dynamic action!

leap beyond queries over to real questions
leap beyond answers into the rainbow of realisations!

leap beyond ignorance to uncover the wisdom at hand
leap beyond the wisdom and rejoice in wonderland!

Change, anybody?

Here we are....on the street, walking as if to a destination.
in front of the screen, typing as if it is an origin of something new....
or pretending to be poised, even when the mind is
rolling all over the place...
what did you ask?

and where is the roll to?

Its a journey, to nowhere.
Again and again people come, events happen, profound -
life changing or disgusting and devastating.

Yet, nothing stays.

Ofcourse! When we look back and see
it is as if there is nothing there....
there was, but as if it has moved out, elsewhere now, relocated
Memories, distant and hazy
of times spent that felt unforgettable
or unbearable....bitter or sweet,
in love or fear or disgust or bliss
and yet
it all drips away like water slipping through fingers...


How come doing something that you arent required to do becomes way less of a drag?

What causes this whole panorama of human emotions? What is behind the intense sensation
that sends chills down my spine everytime i look at the myriad and multitude of the stars?
What is it that forms the very basis of life and keeps it interesting?
What makes Seinfeld funny?


What makes State College weather a thrill ride for some and torture for others?

Are you bored?
Change, Anybody?

Oh, wait...is that the answer?
Of course not-thats a question: Change, Anybody?

What kind of a question is that, you ask?

Change? Anybody?

jee, Who asks such questions apart from the lonely homeless guy standing
in the NY subway station looking with pleading eyes?

Ah but wait a minute, are you bored - change , anybody?


hm...isnt boredom just a call for change?

maybe, but change in what?

well, it depends on what you are bored of....job, relationship, environment, tv, food, writing, reading, exercise, traffic, waiting, what else are you bored of? searching, working, lack of humor
reading this blog....well well..are you? hm...
so we really need a change then...

okay so how does Seinfeld come into the picture at all?
Why-through the electrons hitting the inside of the picture tube of course, or through the numerous liquid crystals re-orienting themselves in response to electrons doing a concerted dance in the transmitter of the TV station hundreds of miles away
or due to the creativity and ingenuity that is behind the quirks in the habits of the
population who supply an endless store of
jokes for Seinfeld to make us laugh-there could be any number of reasons...

what ? this makes no sense? wonderful then you are on the right track....

Change, Anybody?

okay dont read this line then...

hey hey hey you already read it...

well well, lets focus again.......



and



Dont


miss a word in this line.....






okay, did you read it ?


see?
one man's annoyance is another man's laugh...
what makes humor humorous?
Change? Anybody?
no
Change...and Seinfeld......

so much in praise of change...time to change the topic, change of clothes and change of mind-sleep......

till we see
Change What?
