లోతైన గొయ్యి (rabbit hole)

నువ్వు కవివా?

ఏమో, ఇంకా తెలీదు, ప్రస్తుతానికి భావిని.

బావివా?

భావి.

అదే, well, నుయ్యి?

నుయ్యి కాదు, ఇది ఇంకా లోతైన గొయ్యి (rabbit hole).

Love & Light

Love is like Light in many ways. It is the Light that brightens your Life.

Love is light, as in it is delicate, sensitive, but also warm. 

You can’t exactly see or catch either of them but can feel their presence, one with your eyes, the other with your mind. 

The sense of vision is very primal. So maybe it's easier to find light than love. Love is hard to find, of course, even otherwise, lol!

We got an unlimited supply of light from the Sun, but we developed our own sources of light as well. If you can observe, nature also gave us unlimited sources of love in terms of sustenance and survival, but more importantly as an experience, actually, the experience. But, our own sources of love? Well, we each have a source of love inside us and can bring it out, but only if we don't get overwhelmed by fear, greed, or ignorance.

Moving on, Love is like the light in even more ways.

Like we found a spectrum of light that a human eye can perceive, we can also consider a spectrum of love that we can perceive. Like we can see or focus clearly on the things we want to see when there is enough light, we can focus and see things objectively for what they are when our mind is filled with love (for this experience of life).

Let's delve more into two more properties of light! 

We all have read about the dual nature of light, i.e., as particles as well as a wave. Similarly, in love, we have tiny lovely moments, as well as periods of love with the highs and lows (wave ).

And finally, coming to the refraction of light, we know light bends while crossing from one medium to another. But what can be the bending of love?  What imaginary mediums can Love travel in? Well, Like many physical materials which allow light through (with little refraction/bending), or block it, or diminish it, there will be similar imaginary mediums of clutter for love in our minds. But light travels nice and straight in a transparent medium, and so does love. A transparent mind is the best medium for love. But when it gets filled with clutters of bias, hypocrisy, arrogance, or hate, love bends (becomes skewed) or diminishes.

Like optics manipulate light to change the size of objects, optics of clutter can manipulate love and change the importance of things. 

So, try to keep your mind as transparent, i.e., honest and away from bias, hypocrisy, arrogance, and more importantly, hate, the solid that stops the light of love.

Happy Lightening!

Are you living or dying?

One indisputable fact is that you are dying, may not be today, tomorrow, or the next year, but eventually.

Your days on earth are numbered. That's how it is. That's how much time you have to live while slowly reaching your death, or simply while dying slow.

But are you living? While there is still time to die?

What is living? What counts as living?

Technically, the many days from your birth to death, maybe.

But, you know that that is not it, that is not it at all.

Then what else? What else is living?

How about the moments that you actually felt alive, happy, or excited for experiencing something, simple or grand?

What can that experience be called?

What do you call it? Joy? Pleasure? Excitement? Or many synonyms there and forth?

How about the word, Freedom?

In those moments, can you say you were free from all your fears, insecurities, and responsibilities culminating into that experience?

If so, what if your life can totally be that experience? That is free from all your fears, insecurities, and responsibilities? Can that be called living?

How to achieve that? How to get rid of all the negativities that gobble up your mind and achieve that freedom that can make your life an actual ‘living experience’?

It's simple, but hard at the same time, especially in the backdrop of the society and patriarchal traditions that we have inherited!

Unfortunately, freedom is the last thing that our societal system has been offering! The freedom of a person has often been curtailed by responsibility insisted by others. It can be parents, husband, family, or society at large. It is evident in many aspects of, which has been our common way of life, like marriage or staying single, having children, education, career, and even death ceremonies.

When you try to free yourself and break those chains to achieve freedom, it is going to be a battle, and there will be wounds, either physical or emotional. You need a parallel sphere or circle that can help you from depression or anxieties on your way to freedom.

The other aspect of this journey to freedom is related to your career and financial health.

In any battle, financial health is as important as mental strength. You have to develop skills that make you unique and creative in any field of your choice. Your passion for the field can be the driver.

If you can stand on your own feet, then it makes it that much easier to find your strength in your journey to freedom!

Good luck and bon voyage!

Find your feet and freedom.

Live it while you still have time before

dying!
