Junglee

After spending three hours in jungle, I felt I am junglee.

I want to sing aloud,

याहू!
चाहे कोई मुझे जंगली कहे
कहने दो जी कहता रहे
हम प्यार के तूफ़ानों में घिरे हैं
हम क्या करें
याहू!

मेरे सीने में भी दिल है, हैं मेरे भी कुछ अरमान
मुझे पत्थर तो न समझो, मैं हूँ आख़िर एक इन्सान
राह मेरी वही, जिसपे दुनिया चली
चाहे कोई मुझे …

एक मुद्दत से ये तूफ़ाँ मेरे सीने में थे बेचैन
क्या छुपाऊँ, क्या छुपा है, जब मिलते हैं नैन से नैन
सब्र कैसे करूँ, क्यूँ किसीसे डरूँ
चाहे कोई मुझे …

सर्द आहें कह रही हैं, है ये कैसी बला की आग
सोते-सोते ज़िंदगानी घबराके उठी है जाग
मैं यहाँ से वहाँ, जैसे ये आसमाँ
चाहे कोई मुझे …

Even though song has been filmed as romantic and depicts romanticized Hero in its attempt to make heroine his.

Yet words are such that it moves above romantic and moving towards True Love.

few lines are perfectly telling what I want to share.

first loudly want to say, Yahoooooo....

चाहे कोई मुझे जंगली कहे - Yes, as person living in India been called Indian, in America called American and so on.. similarly why not person living in Jungle be called Junglee.. Whether jungle is natural or artificial (concrete).

हम प्यार के तूफ़ानों में घिरे हैं - Always surrounded in torrent of love.. love synonyms of Supreme, Divine.

actually each line has impact and a story... so rather than deciphering each and every line...

coming to last one..

सोते-सोते ज़िंदगानी घबराके उठी है जाग - Remove this line from the song and read aloud. So far I was sleeping, this whole life was sleeping and now it has awaken as fear has smashed me so hard. Fear of loosing my true self, getting corrupt, loosing friendship with myself. I do not want to submit and live in a rut. I don't want to be part of rat race going on in concrete jungle.  

Yahoooo.. Now I have friend, I want to keep that amity alive.. within...

[watch/listen song yahoo too on youtube. While you do, for time being just listen and forget that it is romantic song but plain listening and find what emotions it evokes in you? what kind of thoughts comes?

Today Taught me: 20-11-2015

Journey continues in cyclic order...



How?



Yesterday's Ideas and thoughts, generally known as 'plan' requires an action for materialization. This plan emerges out from the action taken during yesterday and previous entity of time called history, whose ideas and thoughts were seeded in previous days and history.

Today begins with execution of those plan while continuing routine work. This is where we live, as action takes place more ideas, more thoughts, more desire, more & more are generated. which becomes a seed. Seed of power, concealing within future realization. A plan for better tomorrow, of growth and evolution are there in seed.

Tomorrow remains mystry, depends how we execute, channelized those plans into action. How and where plan leads to action? How action leads to another action? Whether one is attune in a process or not? doing it consciously or just action after action? Thus mystery continues...


This cycle of history - presence - mystery goes on.


For me today, 20-11-2015 began with a conscious action of executing plan from yesterday. There was a flow, from one action emerging of plan/idea of next action. Pre-sensing them and action on it makes cycle of action moving. problem also comes and so does it solutions. one thing leads to another, good gets transformed into better with possibility of becoming best.


But what have I learned from one round of wheel, completing a circle.


1- Do not Hesitate in doing/asking something. If questions or action has emerged out from previous action and you have sensed it in present. Why? not doing/asking may leave an element of doubt, regret of not doing/asking and may left out something important for flow of cycle.


Overcoming our initial or any level of hesitation brings freedom and joy. Today, hesitation meet and dissolved into past. rate of overcoming them was more and for that grateful of the parampriya.


2 - Do not Haste. As idea/plan seizes in our mind and we start action on that line. Our efforts brings more energy, more joy. In this rushing gust of energy, we want to do everything in no time. we loose control from energy, forces become uncontrollable when we meet to factors whose control is not in our hand. We Factors which are in control or part of another system. we start felling uncomfortable, we want to realize result fast, to eat fruits of success. In such time, we become furious, we want to hasten the process. We ignore the time factor and factors associated with other system and process on which we are working. Yes, we become impatient.


Today, I was able to sense those moment, taken a pause and patiently work. Even few work remain incomplete. work remaining incomplete is fine. Things not done today will be done tomorrow. With patience, courage and trust moving on the path makes life more beautiful.


3 - Beware of Hype. Moving along we meet certain events, people, places, activities and stories. Some of them puts an impression of perfection, beauty and success. We also want to be part and be there. Our this desire for perfection, beauty and success enlarges the impression of those events, people, places, activities and stories. Creating a hype in mind, in heart. We quickly want to make this a part of our life cycle. We start envisaging plans for incorporating them, dream of actions and results it will bring in life.

Beware!



Don't get dragged into that hype.



Take a pause and observe.

You will soon realize it is just another bubble. which is becoming a froth in mind and in heart. Does that last for longer?



Yes, that's why taking a pause and observing them. Patience, working calmly, sensing current needs and future possibility, acting on them instantly.

 Integral Learning, adaptive learning continues...

 

Today taught me : 19-11-2015

Looking back on time today...

I wonder what today has taught me.


First of all, there came a question on time itself.

Whether time is a Physical quantity or Psychological entity?


I walked little further and message on reflection, taking life as a mirror came in...

and for few consecutive steps, I met to similar messages.


Journey continued with cluttered work of few sharing, posting and promoting..


In midst a call came and went without notice.

Reflecting upon that, mind says - mobile is for use mainly to communicate from anywhere,specially while traveling. No one has told, what should be done of mobile when at home?

and How does it sounds to carry mobile everywhere in home?

let mind get stop here only, before it starts on other trek..


Even though I missed the ring of call but call made something ringing within.

Rest of time till now, went behind working on those tune. Following rhythm of ideas a creation is on its verge. few distracting trek came and gone, just following beats and hitting right chords makes things simple and creative creation emerges out. Completely unplanned yet at every step planning of next work emerges out and rather thinking & creating & drafting a plan. What is required is from that emerging plan, straight away move into the action.



This requires lots of faith on source from where all this emerges out. A gratitude when it begins, during its continuous or discontinuous process and at end. Also leaving results also for that emerging rather than hunting for immediate. Life springs forth with its peace and harmony.


At the end gratitude at the lotus feet of the divine.

નામ તારા હજાર કીધા, 
હજારો એના જાપ કીધા;
દિલથી ના નીકળ્યા તો ગોખી કીધા,
નિત - નવીન ક્રમ જાળવી કીધા,
સત નહિ ગુણોના ધ્યાન કીધા,
જે ચાહ્યું એ પામ્યું, દુખડા કરોડ કીધા.

Gratitude @ The Lotus feet of Parampriya

વંદનીય સ્મરણીય  ઓ પ્યારા પ્રભુ
ધન્ય ધન્ય....

આકાશે-પાતાળે, શૂન્યથી મનુષ્ય સુધી,
સર્વ - સર્વત્ર, ઓ પ્યારા પ્રભુ
ધન્ય ધન્ય....

વેદ તું વાણી તું, પવન ને પાણી તું,
જીવ સજીવ ને શીવ તું, ઓ પ્યારા પ્રભુ  

ધન્ય ધન્ય....

  

Offering at the Lotus feet of the Parampriya,

Grateful to live in there presence. I pray that presence of love and peace remain forever in times of smooth sailing as well as in time of sailing through catastrophe.

Above verse has impression of arvachin [ancient] gujarati sahitya [literature]. In fact one line is almost copy [from narsinh mehta's bhajan]. Not in defence, yet I want to say that 'whatever came during those intense moment of gratitude, I wrote it down. It contains those feelings which comes up spontaneously from heart and mind gives them form whatever available. Mind doesn't go in search and have to work on finding words and correct structure. In a way this is very rough, uncut draft of what is within as well as its uncut manifestation.'

Written somewhere between 4 - 10 January 2009. During my first visit to Home, pondicherry. Written in morning time, at samarpan lounge, where we were staying during national youth camp.

feeling blessed now and again & again of coming into their presence and living in it. Thank you maa, for enabling to share it today.

chappa part-1

ગાડી લીધી કરોડની,
ડ્રાઈવર કીધો કોડીનો;

ડાબું જમણું સમજે નહીં,
એને નકશો દિધો મૂડીનો;

ગોળ-ગોળ ભમ્યા ક્રે,
જડે ના રસ્તો માડીનો.

somewhere in 2005-2006.

shall I say

એક ફુલ ખિલ્યાની વાત​, તને કહીં દ​વ​;
હૈયાના આંગણમાં, રુધીરસ સીંચ્યાની વાત​;
પ્રેમની વેલી પર, ફૂલ ખીલ્યાની વાત​;
મૌનની ભાષાથી ઉકેલાતી એ વાત​...
તને કહીં દ​વ​

I am not sure when i wrote this verse [image below]. mostly it should be while travelling and probably during first journey to pondy.

How we elect

After writing a post on status about statistical analysis based on Bihar poll data.

I found it was very superficial and more thoughts overwhelmed mind. presenting them here.

First data taken was state-wider % vote share of two different types of poll. [if we truly know what comes under state government and under central government.] so first thought was to compare previous state election. 2010 data with 2015 data, still tells many thing. on looking to it, one finds strange things. The party which has lost election is been found gaining %vote share state wise. While winning one has lost.

Still all data is deceptive in appearance, more methodical study is required. for which complete statistical report is required. like the one http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/Statisti... of 2010 election report. than one can play around with number.

Second important fact came out during yesterday’s post was about democracy as government system. which brought a question on how we elect our representative? what are biggest threat in the system?

After money power it is more about emotional black-mailing and driving on emotions rather than concrete work. To tackle both a system requires change as well as people more educated and participation in process. few ideas came to mind..

Currently, we have constituency wise candidate selection. for which equation of money, cast, religion and other factors are taken in account. all party still works for this equation. election commission had several time spoke about crushing and monitoring menace of money and muscle power during elections.

how about impersonal voting? No promotion of candidate, no candidature selection, no form filling. EC selects team of 20-30 members constituency-wise to find problems in constituency. problems figure out been put forth to party as well as candidate [represented by symbol rather than name/profile] for providing solutions. there solutions are distributed as purely selection basis among electorates. voting takes place based on it.

similarly state-wise party been asked to form a ministry with before hand mentioning person for particular portfolio. state-wise committee of 20-30 personal for each portfolio [which included experts, civil servant as well as few common people], they put forth a set of problem & questions, tasks. Based upon work they do in task, way they solve or plan to solve problem & questions - committee decides 1st representative and 2nd representative. additionally state-wise voting for ministry can be done. and on average of both winners be elected as prime representative. It might be also a good idea to put cabinet candidate to stay in Big-Boss house for at least two weeks. live telecast on national channel. people can see how they behave as well as solve problems and does task given to them. even though one can act but acting 24*7 is too difficult.

combine result of seat won constituency wise, %vote share and state-wise winning ministry [cabinet] been aggregated. this decide seats sharing in assembly. and functioning.

also rather than 5 year tenure, it can be extended to 6 years with two-term review at two year duration. there every candidate who had been given responsibility of constituency need to give report of his/her work in two year, a committee review on it. Also, response from electorate given a time-period to lodge their dissatisfaction, if count goes above some set-margin, provision to remove person and replace by other.

Plenty of thoughts, churning and more better system can emerge out. Rather than following same model of British democracy that to of 20th century, it might be time to rethink and device more better system for electing representative and curbing the menace of money, muscle and mandal power.

i have written as rather thoughts keep on playing in head its better they get silence by coming out and seat there.

We might have got political freedom, yet democracy needs to be established and new better system of government still need to be found.

hoping that will also been done in this century...

one touch.

એક સ્પર્શ તારી યાદનો,

સ્પંદિત ક્રે મારી ચાહના,
ઉર રુધિર ક્ર મન મસ્તિક્
સર્વ સંવાદિત થઇ તે ભાવમાં
આલિંગન કર​વા ઉપડે
