My Marriage with Prajna :: You are invited



When I was a kid I thought "This is just too much ado for nothing"
Then there was a juvenile teen in me that uttered "Oh!! I know everything about it"
Few years passed by and I and many fellow smug adults often smirked and sneered at the events but enjoyed the dinners
                       Then there were
The early victims who for some reason felt Princely for the Stupidity they considered Serene
The fairly grown-ups were either permanently Startled or Satiated with the burden of life unless they were drunk
Then there was a faint decrepit old man who wished to be reborn just for the sheer joy of "I do" or "Qubul Hai" or "The Mantras""
  
And who knows, probably this is about being re-born to experience love and a new friendship in the guise  of  compromise, sacrifice
                      
                       In short to scavenge through reality...
                       May be this is the Wisest Mistake
                       The  MARRIAGE

You have won

 Mother India singing a lullaby for all her poor sons.
_____________________________________________________________

Son, you may have never won anything, 

often you would feel you have never owned anything.
Your biggest victory or rather the only form of victory is the
victory over your frustration, 
victory over your failures.
I am proud as ever for the sheer purity of it, 
this is so genuinely yours, 
so profoundly thoughtless to the intellect, 
so outrageously indifferent to the rest.

You are not alone,
There are millions like you, probably there are just a few who have the success they wish.
Even Murphy would say there are more failures in life to the very countable successes.
But hell ya I know, you are one of the few combatant seers from the creed.
You ridicule the moment you fail, you know the success is just a breath away..
You stand up again to grab the only thing you ever own  "HOPE"..
                                     Yes Son,You have won

It was dark and I was fresh from 4 consecutive defeats in Table Tennis and a hopeless day at office. I found myself stranded and sandwiched between a Malayalam Radio that probably transmitted vibes from some other planet and a monster who was believably sleeping in his hangover. That was not all, the bus guy went Green and switched off all the lights just the moment I opened my "A Thousand Splendid Suns". But then, my laptop with 33 minutes of battery charge cried 'you are still not alone'.
Soon, an ever Capitalist me, was speaking the language of Communism, the language of all those losers who have never lost.

OfWorldsElseWhere

Incandescent
____________________________________________________

Sabyasachi, up there 250000 miles away from home..Owning an
un-realestate hardly u wo'd ever imagine..
I see my country, of course not the most beautiful, a bit smokey and
much brighter though..
Smell of prosperity is too pungent and so very classy..

Its 2031,an unsophisticated gentleman with a weird dream to sail
through the space made the costliest bargain with the moon.
I see the space exquisitely boring.. I see the moon hopelessly bland..
I set my eyes on India lovely lively..
I have seen "INDIA POISED" , "INDIA SMILING" ... , "INDIA
DROWNING",..,"INDIA GLITTERS" to "INDIA SHINING".
Now its "BHARAT SHINING" and we are the most respected and celebrated
country with a defined cultural dignity..
Now I am the third Indian and the seventh crazy lay-man in the world
to travel moon..
ISROnNASA aiming at taking it as a profitable business.Thanks to the
excellent Managerial fellas we possess and groom.


Tomorrow I ll be back.. I take a sneaky pick at my past..
I haven't seen Shimla,Darjeeling,Kashmir,Kanyakumari,ven't even been
to the beautiful Bird sanctuary near my native..
Forget the niagra or the Amazon..
Almost been a nerd with a hell lot of money..Hmmm..I don believe,I
have seen the earth as a whole ..
I hit my dream.. I smile..a smile of delirium..


-------------------------
I got a kick..

"Night's up.. wake up mate..

start off..Its never too late"

Dreams

(A note for all the passer-bys : This was my orkut profile some 4 years back, I named it  "Incandescent Dreams" then; Now, somehow I feel a dream so brilliant should rather be enveloped than be left conspicuous )

XYZGossips

Mr. X: After several worldly defeats, I cry,
            “I do not compete with anybody but me”
Mr. Y: Is it a loser’s escapism or a victor’s narcissism?
Mr. Z: Ask the one with a similar redemption, the GOD himself, who has both won and lost with you,for you


Mr. X: Creation of God or rather the very concept is an anachronism.
Mr. Y: Ironically, it is often conceived as modern.
Mr. Z: So, there you go... Smiles


Mr. X: He must have been a true genius, a whole of himself, who created this big “XXX”
Mr. Y: Or did he just make himself the He?
Mr. Z: Well guys, you are mighty close… Smiles


Mr. X: You know, I do not envy him, since one day I would just be able to better Me
Mr. Y: Buddy, you have just done so
Mr. Z: And you are not far either


Mr. X: Stares wildly at the horizon, thinks, smirks at himself, twitches his mustache muscles and then flushes the most content smile ever and shrugs
Mr. Z: Closes his eyes, winks for once “I reckon I have never lost to myself”
Mr. Y: Takes a deep deep breath, relieves a sensation.. Utters "And I reckon, Godliness is a state of mind"


Mr. X: Nods
Mr. Z: "And I lost it a moment ago";he just manages to stand firm
Mr. Y: And you find it back another moment ago.


Mr. X: All we crave is an uninterrupted perfection
Mr. Y: A better me
Mr. Z: An un-fatigued, un-intrigued state of mind


And then there was just a small dot like it has ever been.
