Simplicity Ignored. Why?

Is Indian a 'state of being' or an 'adjective'? For some it’s a band. Most of us use it like an identity robe. “I am Indian” “This looks very Indian”
Is it jingoistic to be ‘Indian’ or is it patriotic to be ‘Indian’?
This question is very confounding for a simple mind.
Why do we have to complicate life? Let us all be. In that state of just ‘being’ everything will turn normal. We have to disrobe ourselves of ‘conditioning’, of ‘relationships’, let us be human beings.
You know it is so easy to write such thoughts but so tough to implement in our lives. I feel that even if we resolve to follow something for a few hours and then extend it to days, months. It is a great bargain. For instance, “I will get up at 6 am tomorrow”
And yes, it happens. The next day I make the same resolution with a minor addition “I will wake up at 6 am and go for a walk” It works on a daily basis. I will not judge anyone for the whole day. Incredible! It works.
Bit by bit, drop by drop, thought by thought, deed by deed, we make life simpler. True to it’s nature. Nature has always been simple. So why, defy it.

Bling & Calm!

In this evening of bling and colours, the white clothed tables & chairs mute the glare. They add a touch of elegance to the otherwise ostentatious air.

Colours have a great ability to convey meanings and thoughts, very insightful and profound at times. For instance, white has a calming effect. Black is satanic and insanely charming in a twisted way.

It is baffling to witness the blinding rgb, cmyk mix. Where is white? I thought in my head and turned to the tables and chairs, my tranquilisers for the evening.

My writing, i feel sometimes is like the rgb, cmyk mix. Nevertheless, i will go on.

Let's quit racial profiling

Last night's conversation with a few like-minded folks, has made me realise that deep down we all are intricately conditioned. As a result of this malaise within us, we do not leave anyone. It is very sad that those who don't fit our "description", "type", "space", are thought by us as 'outsiders'. The case of 'us' and 'them' is very sharp and finds itself taking root in every minute of existences.

Some day, i hope this travesty of humanity is removed from within by 'us' and not 'them'.

As they say hope keeps the most feeble alive.
