Some Reflections...: The Sage and the Egg
http://theskymind.blogspot.com/2011/12/sage-and-egg.html
Monday, December 05, 2011. The Sage and the Egg. Here is a story about Ramana Maharishi. and how I relate to it. It was the early hours of the morning in the Hall of Sri Bhagavan. He had had His bath, and now went to the farther end of the Hall to take His towel that hung from a horizontally suspended bamboo, at one end of which a sparrow had built her nest and laid therein three or four eggs. Can the cracked eggshell be pieced together again? So saying, He took a piece of cloth, wetted it, wrapped it ar...

Wednesday, August 12, 2009. Thus speaks the celebrated Sankara in his Viveka Chudamani or "Jewel Crest of Discrimination":-. For all souls, a human birth is difficult to obtain,. More so is a male body;. Rarer than that is Brahminhood;. Rarer still is the attachment to the path of Vedas;. Higher than this is erudition in the scriptures;. Discrimination between the Self and not-Self,. And continuing in a state of identity with the Supreme Soul. 8211; these come next in order. If at the end of such a quest...

Monday, February 11, 2013. Toothache and Time Travel. Which one is more fascinating, History or Alternate History? All those great sagas draw me in, I wander through the ages. I wonder what it would be like to actually be there, to march with legions, to sweep across the steppes with the Mongol horsemen, to sail with the Armada. And then, what would the world be like if that stray arrow didn’t hit Raja Hemu? What if the Greeks didn’t ignore the steam engine that they had invented? I guess what ultimately...

Saturday, May 24, 2008. How does one describe anxiety? Found a new job at Yahoo! Put your home in a box and move, find a new home, find new friends and live up to Yahoo! Its stalwart programmers and suite of cutting edge technologies. Here is where i want to throw the lines from Ernst Hemmingway's Old man and the Sea:. The punishment of the hook is nothing.

Some Reflections...: March 2015

Saturday, March 21, 2015. The ocean i.e. the reef @ Waikiki is shallow. Don't be scared :). All you need to do is stand up on the board :). If you fall, just pull the board back to you using the harness, don't swim to it :). The equipment is available in stores, practice in a pool. It is quite easy. You don't need one. Most places have tours that pick you up from the hotel. It is OK, don't be scared :). Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
