Text of the page (random words):
ce of worship was to what i was accustomed to in hinduism prayer emphasized i think because i am an amateur here the vibration the sound of the hymns chanted over the words used to worship here though it was strange to not have an air of tension of intensity but instead an atmosphere that was relaxed and yet respectful all the same it was strange and an invigorating experience that i took away with me my problem though is that the accepted concept of a higher entity which more often than not is assumed to be one which is more absolute from human beings in every possible way doesn t tell us if said entity can understand what we are doing i mean from what i have seen it is more likely that god communicates through a higher plane of mutual understanding than the one that we his supposed creations use through words of speech so what i feel is that our chants our hymns our self assurances that god will sacrifice himself for us that he loves us that all of our prostrations of surrender to him will communicate to him our emotions our desires and our hopes could be for naught i do not think that i am a person without a belief but i m not sure either the truth is that only during our darkest moments when we despair and look to the sky with wet eyes looking for salvation is when we truly look for a higher entity or rather in our mind we look for an entity with superior knowledge of the universe who is thereby in a higher position of power to dictate what the immediate unknown could hold i also feel that it is at that moment that we could either be right beside that entity or further away from him that we can possibly comprehend essentially we need someone to tell us that it s going to be ok and because we are not sure of ourselves and of other being at our level of existence we need a higher more empowered authority of inform us of the same case in point i often need my parents to review my writing and to suggest improvements i hold their opinions over that of my peers because it came from a higher source which according to me is more informed about the universe and thus is able to give me an answer that i am more likely to believe regardless of the validity of its contents so whom do we actually worship i believe that and i say this purely as something that i ve turned over in my mind for a while we surrender ourselves to virtue we believe ourselves to be creatures of imperfection held back by tainted traits such as greed and jealousy as such we worship an embodiment of the traits that we hold in high regard valor self sacrifice piety humility are all characteristics that feature prominently and more importantly consistently in major beliefs of today to put it simply we worship a being that has all of the traits that we would like to have and interestingly because we worship these traits we subconsciously try to feature them more prominently in our lives in other words we are all shuffling forward in a long march to eventually become the very being that we worship it can be said then that worship to an extent is a appeal to our own supreme self but if such a being were to already exist it should have reached a stage of evolutionary development where communication by verbal speech is simply unnecessary a being with such an innate understanding of the machinations of the universe would simply be able to communicate via mere thought an advanced being could simply exist without a need to communicate without a need to justify its own existence the idea that our actions of worship will reach a being of such power is as likely as the odds of us noticing if an ant were to suddenly prostate before us expecting us to understand it s actions as an act of worship such an intimate and powerful communication i feel cannot possibly be encapsulated by verbatim but by making a consciously aware decision to carry out one s convictions and to justify the ends to ourselves i suppose an easy way to say it would be that at the moment of interaction with the supreme just a moment a single powerful moment of absolute belief and clear thought is enough to convey all that you wished to say however such moments of mental eloquence come far and few and they can lead to a cascade of events that could easily change our world in other words yes we must create an epiphany for ourselves each time we pray a happy 69th independence day to every one of my countrymen who accidentally stumbled here by accident posted by abinesh kumar at 03 17 no comments friday 24 july 2015 certain empathy extends only after our line of sight hello it has been about a good ten days since the last time i stumbled my way here and for once i actually feel a sense of relief to see the blank empty page of a new post i m back at college for my fifth semester in chemical engineering it was quite a vacillating two weeks leading up to my eventual return though when there were ten days left for departure i was impatient for the holidays to end i told myself that i was raring to go back to college however when there were about three days left my feelings were akin to prince abdullah from tintin they d have to drag me kicking and screaming every step of the way if they wanted me on that train on the last day though i felt fine i didn t feel particularly nervous or afraid and while i did feel a slight twinge of annoyance that i had to return i accepted the fact that i needed to finish what i had started being alone in a hostel room is a lot different from the safe solitude that your boudoir at home provides this is my fifth time around coming here so i thought that i d be fine and i was mostly for the first few days as the hours dragged on though even if you try to convince yourself otherwise certain undesirable thoughts do creep into your mind at moments like that there is nothing quite as effective as finding a creative outlet to occupy all of your concentration cooper brand shouted jerking in her seat she looked at the craft attached to the underside of the endurance cooper gazed back at her their eyes locked for what seemed to be an eternity it might have very well been that with the black hole being in such close proximity or it could have been just a sliver of a split second brand didn t know couldn t decide she couldn t see any light reflected from cooper s eyes we agreed on 90 remember dr brand cooper said simply as he disengaged the craft setting himself adrift on the event horizon of the black hole it s incredible that we can find so many scraps of pulp wisdom scattered across fiction and non fiction alike even comics and cartoons often draw inspiration from philosophy and morality such as calvin and hobbes and cyanide and happiness the above dialogue was from a sequence in the movie interstellar right before the movie s next scene made people go eh what the movie was acclaimed mainly for its ambition and the brave attempt by director christopher nolan to create an original screenplay on such a magnitude what intrigued me the most was a certain scene of the film at the beginning of matt damon s first appearance damon mentions that michael caine s character sent all of the astronauts cooper brand and co into space knowing full well that the odds of them ever saving the people on earth were close to nil he did this after giving the crew a statement to the contrary and telling cooper in particular that he was undertaking this mission to save his children damon states that michael caine s character had correctly identified this empathy extends only as far as our line of sight however as per the dialogue excerpt from above we see that cooper s actions are truly the crux of the entire film s premise that he chose to sacrifice himself to give his partner a chance to create a new colony of humans populated by people whom he would never meet in other words out of his line of sight over a chance to be reunited with his children is a direct refutation of micheal caine s belief that humanity could not save itself without a proper incentive something christopher nolan probably wrote in the script on purpose i believe that people can genuinely care for each other during times of calamity and disaster the recent earthquake in nepal is a case in point support in the form of relief aid manpower and prayers for the safety of the survivors poured in from across the world but for most us it was just someone else who had lost nearly everything they had in their lives if not their lives itself if the whole world were in danger as it already is from numerous mistakes of our own would we see such empathy for others or would we prove michael caine right alternatively if we flip that statement around what would we have especially in india recently the american supreme court legalized homosexual marriage across the country in a landmark judgement facebook quick to react to the potential implications of the judgement offered its users a mechanism to convert their profile pictures into shades of the rainbow giving them an opportunity to display their solidarity and support to the verdict let me just interrupt in between here though in my opinion the victory achieved by representatives of lgbt communities at the supreme court was not a victory for love i feel that it was common sense that won that day we are all beings who are capable of living our lives to the best of our capability if each of us wants to live his or her life a certain way then he should be allowed to do so as long as it doesn t infringe upon the equal rights that another person also possesses admittedly this is an over simplification of a much wider issue but i do not feel that i am wrong in saying live and let live the question that i finally have is would such an empathy survive at all within our line of sight there were millions of users on facebook in india a land were homosexuality is still illegal who changed their profile pictures to the same in shades of the rainbow but for every single one of them barring a few i am willing to wager that actual homosexuals are simply someone else they support the movement because it trended wildly in the week of the verdict and in our politically correct society of today it is cool to be seen as forward but exactly how receptive those individuals would be if someone they knew such as a close friend or family member came out of the closet would they be as understanding and forward as they portray themselves to be posted by abinesh kumar at 02 24 1 comment tuesday 14 july 2015 intriguing ways to express yourself alright since nobody really has any problems with what i do around here i think i ll go with a different format this time the idea is the same it s just that i really really love to write stories so i figured why not experiment writing a post like that the platform at the train station was streaming with activity as bodies jostled against each other on the concrete floor porters bellowed at the top of their voices furiously pulling their heavy luggage laden trolleys and the vendors at the platform stalls called out to travelers standing idly by the motionless line of coaches there were still about twenty minutes even after making allocations for the punctuality of services in india for the train to depart but having no companions from college to travel with i had already wandered into my coach some time ago and was quietly listening to music i had found to my delight that my berth was one on the side lower side of the cabin it was slightly cramped for me since i was about six foot one but once i d hunkered down and plugged in my earphones i was able to lean back with a contented sigh normal berths were always a nightmare for me since i always traversed to and forth from chennai to trichy alone more often that not there would be a crowd of hostile co passengers usually a family with some exceptionally unruly children seated all around me leaving me to silently grit my teeth and stare furtively out the window travelling alone also makes one way more suspicious of his surroundings than the normal a man makes his third bathroom trip under a half hour he s probably robbing every sleeping passenger blind somebody brushes closer to you than necessary he has an eye on your laptop bag and is waiting for the next station to snatch it and run out every tattoo and every scar that you spot adorning a fellow passenger gains its own dark origin story and every hand that slips into a pocket is expected to return clutching a knife no wonder i like the solitude of the side lower seat i think reflectively as i tilted my head to the side and watched the travelling landscape reflected in my eyes there was something weird that happened once we were on our way though as i had predicted there were a noisy pair of families spread across the other seven berths of the cabin an old man i think he was the father sat awake in his upper berth for the entirety of his journey now insomnia on a train journey is perfectly understandable the constant rattle of the coach wheels on the gravelly tracks and the shrill whistling of the wind as it whipped
