Freedom to Silence


Sometimes silence seems deafening. Who says that Silence is the absence of Sound? If there is a superlative to Sound, it probably is Silence.


Or perhaps, Sound is the Silent Invader?... Invader of Silence? Silence allows Sound, but Sound doesnt return the favour? Who can conquer Sound... that the beauty of Silence be restored? May Silence be taught to empower herself. May she not allow the unpleasant Sound thereafter.


Mind is the Conqueror. It has won the greatest battles. May I groom you O, warrior Mind? May I ask you to set in action? Chain the deafening Sound! Chain it from all! Chain it from everywhere! May Silence be freed!


"Where the mind is without fear...

Into that heaven of freedom..." (Gitanjali)

Mend the walls...


What is life when you feel it's meaningless? What gives true meaning to life? When one spends time in loneliness, what comes out of it? Rather, what is one made of? What is the void? What can fill this void? What is this life?


What are we in pursuit of?... Or, are we being fooled by the pursuit itself?... What gives true satisfaction? Oh! what is this void!


May the true unshakeable foundation be laid! If not for this, why was it shaken? Why did the walls crack?

"There is a crack in everything, thats how the light gets in" Leonard Cohen

Send the light, then... mend the walls...
