Epiphany

Time: 20:26
Place: Hostel room in BITS Pilani
Ventilator and window: Fully open

Cool air was brushing my body as I peacefully crouched on my bed. The song called Marudani (A R Rahman's album Sakkarakatti) was playing in my comp. I switched the lights off and the moonlight was the sole illuminating factor. No tensions in mind, no tests, no responsibilities, no fights, no grudges... Everything was so really nice. The moment was beautiful, I thought. Then I thought, 'for how long can I keep cherishing such moments?' A lifetime at the most. Then??? ... no idea. What if I achieved a lot? Would that really be changing the fact that I can't enjoy my accomplishments forever? So what is it that I/anyone for that matter, can do to have something for eternity? Salvation... any other answers... I really wish there were... (btw if you do, plz lemme know)

Then comes the next mind-chewing question, "Is there really a state called salvation?" Yes there is. No there isn't. J Krishnamoorthy's book said "The answers are probably right here." It also said "You enjoy the moment and then you also partially enjoy recollecting that enjoyment. So you start pursuing the moment and its joy again but then you end up in despair..." Oh my god, that man thought a hell lot about life. Do try reading some books like that. Your perspectives will be appreciated by yourself...

My point however, is to make you all think for a while about 'what is going on.. and for what?' Don't slam your brains too much about this however... just explore your grey matter!



More on this making its way....
