DAY 384 Amitabh Bachchan Blog

The contemplation exists ! It remains in the body and the soul. It drives cautiously within, throughout the day. A complacency begins to hibernate on the extremities of the body. One that resists activity. Any activity. Numbed and morose almost in its structure the mind and the being become immune to feeling and thought. This is not the ideal situation and it should never be. But it is prudent and correct to admit it at least.

Off your back, instantly and to move on. Easy. But a difficult task to comply when the brain is not clear. Could this please be a discovery from the scientists - a ready reckoner on the brain, a thermometer that depicts the condition and capacity of the brain mass at any given time or incident. Would help in taking those decisions which invariably falter in our realm.

In a state of pensive submission, it does not take long to understand that stillness and desire to think or collect or symbolize, shall hover around, looking for that immediate opportunity to either destroy or change with time. But so be it. I must not think.

To be a thinker would be to take refuge in the words and the minds of great sooth sayers, men of judgement and value. Culture does not change with that one suited gentleman, culture does not just change that way, it takes many life times to achieve that. I am not interested in other life times. I am only concerned about what my immediate family are doing and thinking, what my associates and friends are doing, what my elders are doing. Their inputs or suggestions get implemented. Their wisdom is infectious.

So change. Change to be an empty handed vessel or container. Not because it would be fashionable to vent our thinking on to the other, but instead, the empty vessel shall always then be, the receptacle that most search .

Such thought and talk does make me languid and listless. It reflects in all our decision making. Some personal, but largely for the entire world. I am consumed by it for most part of the day. It is monotonous and in a way destructive. That is not the correct state to be in. That is never the correct state to be in.

So let us flush out the mind and the body and indulge. Sometimes it works like magic. I hope it does for me as I wish it would for the others. And then by the time you realize that, the bottom has already slipped away.

Many are puzzled by the effect. But better to remain puzzled, than violent. Violence shall always remain integral year after year, but shall never bring results that you may have lived to achieve.

In deep slumber. There is some disagreement, which you need to discover and attend to. Some you keep as a souvenir and the others will have to wait. Life will remain an important and precious souvenir for us all. It shall lie at a vantage point in your room, to discover and view and care for, day after day after day….

I have many souvenir’s. They are my most constant companions. Some day I shall introduce you to them. You might just become fond of them. I hope you do. It would help me a great deal…

( is it not strange that almost in slumber or in deep desire to slumber, the strangest of thoughts enter the mind for which at the best of times we do not want to confront and let pass )

An idle mind is not the devil’s workshop; it is the philosopher of the blog…
