Reflections on Society and Intersubjective Truth


Today, while walking I came to realize that there is at least a fixed reality which cannot be accessible to my senses; all what I can do is to, perspectivize it, with limited amount of data I have hitherto come across since childhood. Each perspective of mine is not a lived reality; it's also about intersubjective reflections which create a reality of its own. In a way, society comes at sight the moment intersubjective reality is created or unconsciously evolves through societal affairs, transactions, conflicts, and relationship. These building blocks of society are human's made, including language, culture, religion, and all the political edifices which appear at the moment as the truth. These societal structures and the evolution of intersubjective reality develop in due course of time in consciousness of people, and sometimes unconscious psyche has a role in shaping the intersubjective reality. These realities are, unlike the perfect reality in its eternity, are either shaped by power structures or in horizontal bond of folks consciousness. If they are really a reflection of power structure; human will come and go, structure will remain there, sometimes stretches itself, other time restricts itself; for humans are only occupants of the power seat. Human behaviour gets its shape on a seat of power. That place remains seated in fact. Humans for that matter become traveller, or dreamer. Power is/becomes the reality.
If reality is constructed through intersubjective discourses, based upon no division of labour, rather labour itself gains the due honour and respect. Society as an intersubjective truth becomes a win-win game. And relationship evolves through emotional bonds; commercial and intellectual reality are eclipsed by an emotional character of relationship. Probably, the idyllic village community in ancient India was the intersubjective truth, which evolved through emotional bond. They disregarded intellect and the wisdom of commerce. They perceived nature not merely an orderly existent but also an organic one, and accepted nature as the inspiration for intersubjective truth.

पिरोता जाऊँ एक माला ज़िन्दगी का

पढ़ता हूँ हर एक दिन एक ही पन्ना, हर दिन हज़ार ये मालूम पड़ते हैं। जबसे होश संभाला है एक ही पन्ना सवांरते आया हूँ, लोग इसे ज़िन्दगी कहते हैं। इसपे लिखे हर एक लब्ज़ जो मेरे मालूम पड़ते हैं, ना जाने कितने जुबां पे चढ़े होंगे। आज हम भी कुछ पल के लिए ही सही इसके सारथी हैं, जाने से पहले कुछ रंग मेरा भी इसपे चढ़ जाए, बस इसीलिए एक ही पन्ना बार बार पलटता रहता हूँ। हर कोई अनजाने किताब की तलाश में बाहर निकलता है, जिसका हर एक पन्ना वो ख़ुद है। जब ख़ुद के रंग को समझ ही ना पाया, तो भला इंद्रधनुषी किताब के क्या मायने हैं? अस्तित्व में ना जाने कितने पन्ने बिखरे पड़े हैं, बस एक से ही अवगत हो जाऊँ, उसके हर एक शब्द को चुनता जाऊँ, कुछ पल के लिये सही, पिरोता जाऊँ एक माला ज़िन्दगी का।

Time and Love

Time passes by Like moving in a train of thoughts Its sequence is always forward Vibrating like a cosmic dance of Shiva Time is creating and engulfing The little waves of the ocean Going where? Nobody knows Like a dream does not have a destination It is as true as any absurd play With friends of pleasure It moves like speed of light With friends of need It is felt like a moving river Allowing a little moments of thoughts Before everything becomes a history With friends of virtue Time becomes a sublime touch Soothing and healing the pain Becoming a spectator To watch the cries and follies Beauty and ugliness The rainbow of joy And an album of suffering Time touches Yet it remains aloof Like Purush is witnessing The colours of prakriti Yet remains unblemished And untouched The union of two is always mystical Their touch is a source Of creation and transformation Time is witnessing everything In its sequential movements Who is witnessing time? What is independent of the originatio...

Dreamer

Empty is mirror, Yet it reflects what is. Chit is absolute abyss, Yet it contains the existence, Like unending horizons of sky. Chit in bond with manas, Creates and witnesses, The playful dance of life. Shunyata is the absolute truth, Yet it is all of the possible worlds. Out of its voidness, World appears and disappears. Is it real or unreal? Or merely the Dream, Of all the possible dreams? If it is the case, Who is dreaming, the dreams of all? The One, the Cosmos. What if the One is also a figment of imagination? What if the world is a poetic creation? And the Poet has deployed itself, In every form of poetry? The poetry of life. What if only bhokta is bhojan? Only observer is observed? Only worshiper is worshipped? Only subject is object? All are the waves of same Ocean.
