I'm a Practical Man, you know. What about You?

I'm a practical man, you know. What about you?
I don't really like any philosopher or scientist.
Do you know what I mean?
I don't have any vision for the world.
I know that the World itself is taking care of itself.
Why to bother or to waste time in thinking?
Practically, thinking kills our spirit of amusement!
Why to read, if it is profitable to save time for insatiable earnings?
Why to listen philosophers or poets? They didn't understand a simple lesson that life is lived not thought!
Pity to those people who are obsessed for knowledge.
They must open eyes and pay heed to one of the greatest philosophers of all time, Immanuel Kant.
He believed that the "thing in itself" is unknowable.
All our "knowledge are human knowledge".
Knowledge is as childish as a toy of a zealous child.
I prefer not to play with these toys.
I'm a practical man, you know. What about you?

I'm successful.
I'm earning and thinking about it all the time.
What else I'm supposed to do?
Many stars are born and many died;
Who knows what happened to them?Humans are not that different from stardust.
We are doomed to die even if we are exploring the glory of wisdom.
We are the prisoners of our own thoughts.
I don't like discussing what is just or unjust.
I like to be productive, efficient, and ready to be used as fuel for the market! I'm a modern man in every way;
A consumer par excellence;
A glorious mediocre;
A running horse without a horse race. My every step is random.
My desires are insatiable and infinite. I'm extraordinarily talented for changing colours in few seconds that a dramatist would feel insecure.
I'm a practical man, you know. What about you?

I'm not a dreamer.
I'm not a traveller.
I like to consume un-relentlessly;
Even if nothing remains to consume at last.
After all, I love my role as a consumer, which I have not even chosen.
The Market, a divine powerhouse, has chosen me suitable for this role only.

Online markets are my sacred places, which provide me immense simulative pleasures.
The web-series ensure a seamless continuity of consuming times.
Isn't it a foolish act to remain silent. Silence is quite depressing and repressing.
I'm a practical man, you know. What about you?

Meeting Justice Rohinton Nariman in a Sunday Morning

Aristotle once wrote in his Nicomachean Ethics that there are four significant virtues for human beings, namely Prudence, Temperance, Justice, and Courage. There are a few judges who have courage and sense of justice, both. Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rohinton Nariman has been truly an exemplar judge and erudite historian, theologian and philologist, a great scholar of music as well as a courageous and meticulous jurist of our country. He did his Master of Laws from Harvard Law School in 1980-81 and taught by one of the finest jurists of the last century, Roberto Unger. He became Senior Advocate in 1993 in the age of 37 and also served as Solicitor General of India in 2011 before he was elevated as a judge of the Supreme Court of India in 2014. He delivered many landmark judgments, including Shreya Singhal v. Union of India. There are a few people with whom time moves too fast, but to count that experience takes ages. Justice Rohinton Nariman is one of those great jurists with whom a meet...

Feminine Mystery

        Portrait Courtesy: Shraddha One day when 'I' die  All would born as free life The long struggle to be Would turn out to be a mirage  Whose mystery is long known But forgotten Every concern or engagement Is an escape to forget  The first germ of life; its completeness Shackles are nowhere  But imagined as real One day that image would disappear And a blank sheet would represent The Being and Nothingness My mother my light  Has merged into the shadow To witness the geist  Glittering in every particle  All around ether  One day when I laugh On the seriousness of playfulness And let the things flow  Without any expectation or resistance The day would be a new dawn To the spirit of wholeness And unity of phenomenon Fragmented in an age of reason And anarchus egoism of individuals  One day the expression of collective Would loose its relevance  When man would realise The silent spirit  And its feminine mys...

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।
