This too shall pass:)

Since May 31st, 2008, it has been very strong and intense life. Emotions, unprecedented, both in quantity and quality awashed me. Learnings, though painful, were the heart of the matters of head and heart alike. As usual, i have tried very different, unique and few fatally adventurous things but adventures of consciousness tops it all. All these things were divorced from logic and immediate utility. Nonetheless, it made me....contemplate, endure, broaden and deepen my understanding of Life: world, people, man-woman *ships, relationships, stream of experiences, conversations, acts, and natural, well thought and fabricated ensuing responses; punctuated by episodes of choicelessness, randomness, uncontrolled and dismay. Time tests you and relationships. What i embrace is "Balance" "Dynamic Assimilation of differentiation and integration" and "Progress".Well well well its enough from the X axis.

On a serious note, last six months of mine witnessed 7 weddings of my accquaintances. God, bless them with abundant love, iota of cold logic and boundless happiness of all sorts:) Altogether, there was another crisis at office, well anticipated one. There was lot of power struggle-driven re-org in my office. I have learnt a lot about managerial economics, organizational dynamics, company politics, and tactics and strategies in general mangement during these times. What a lovely time it was!!! As we all know that there is no education like adversity!!

There was breather: country where everything is dependent and decided based upon lunar moves launched Chandrayaan. I'm proud of this achievement and wish this augurs well for lunar-calendrians. Lo and behold, there was bad news pouring in from every possible corner of the world. Economy crisis, recession and phobias of depression. This wrinkle on the face of time in this hotter, flatter and smaller world shifted my thoughts and understanding on global realities. Financial systems, world economic forums, G20s, macro and micro economics, capitalism and liberalism driven markets and nations, strategies and policy makings and makers, creative capitalism and sustanability models based on wholistic and systemic thinking, approaches and life-centered decisions...all boiled down to "Life on this curved globe". I can see its impact, it is deep and severe than i had anticipated. Yes, my friends are on the verge of losing their jobs. Sad news may hit me anytime, but i keep diverting them away from reality just for the sake of giving them respite. No, I'm not in the Plato's cave but I believe in the intuition and infinite human energy to face and tame anything. As John Keynes said (thats what my uncle echoed) " Severe the recession, faster the recovery", I'm very optimistic and good news is that one would never get a chance in a lifetime to learn about management, economics, international markets, social psychology and global dyanamics, governments and their in/fidelity with economies like the we are blessed with, now.
PS: I had a capitalist, catholic, clever and charming "bestest friend" (whats there in a word), with whom I used to debate and discuss endlessly with loads of love, wit and emotion. But she is cosumed by the...:) Lets see how populism fares in these times. 57% of India's GDP is driven by consumption!!Hope you got it:)

The Me

I dont seek but i find but there are many things that cant be said in words or shown in actions. There are many things that are simply unaccesible to this finite logical system. Tough i'm burning day n night in the million fires, some unknown n inhumanly strong sources of inspiration forces me to strive, struggle and dash it with unimaginable strength. Cost of trust is sometimes too much. I always preferred Trust to anything else in a real n true relationship but i wasnt aware of its new infltaion affected costs in this unsatiable, completely indifferent n insensitive r-ships. My thunderous passionate horse deep inside is sometimes too adamant to give up or to give in or to think like the stray ones.

The congenital virtue which i suffer from is that i feel that nothing is insurmountable. I feel that the best, grandest, strongest, highest, truest, happiest and the unflinchable, being-in-there-at the centre attitude simply acelerates me to challenge all these n all those useless-lesser mortal.

The fascination with learning, adventure, liveliness, fun,crowd n as well as solitude, travel, and propelling ahead in 4Pi directions is programmed in my dna, guess this could be one of the sources. I experience nirvana at very high speeds, stillness in action, have a great bond with nature n universe n especially stars. Speed of my blood, speed of my thoughts, intensity of my love, romanticism,n passion n the fire that cleanses me while playing sports all of these simply obey Uncertainity principle. But do u know why Im posting this................self-centredness..smtimes its gud:)

You Complete Me..hahaha

Of the last 28 movies i watched, DK was the best.Unlike other comic based movies, DK has evolved beyond the base concept and source and moved light years ahead. It has political, ethical, social and philosophical flavours in it without the sacrifice of the core plot.

Right from the moment you are ensconsed in your seat, till the end of the movie, you are mesmerized by this unusual story, usage of light and darkness, witty n powerful dialogues, perfect screenplay and the balance of all these.

I feel joker is the Dark and the batman is the Knight and the Harvey is the dark knight. I think now you know three main characters. Joker's excellent performance, "aha" dialogues, and his entry n exit, and his peculiarity have greatly eclispsed batman. It is all about possible vs probable. It is about unstoppbale force vs immovable object. It is about commitemnts vs
opportunism. It is a story about balancing sensitivity and sensibility.Joker wants to prove that even good n ethical men, when they are pushed to emotional limits, they would turn into soul-less, unetical and wicked men.He wants to win at the ideas or thoughts level, ie the highest form of victory for him. So the prerequisite for him to win is strong and conscientious people.Whereas batman wants to prove the otherwise. In this greatest moral tug, Harvey is the fulcrum and a coin (it represents probability or a chance right!+) Harvey, the super performance, staunch professional almost ideal turns into a bad man after some point of time. This volteface is shown as he becoming "double face" (his half face gets burnt). This change makes batman weak. But he re-focusses on the assimilation of ethics, pragmatics and the true strength. He cannot/dont want to kill Joker for it is like losing and giving in or accepting that Joker's principles are real n true. At the same time he cannot let him keep creating chaos.
I'm sure that you cannnot stop associating Joker with many things in your life. I could see various things in him: government, policies, tactics, and importantly my "greatest" friend. It's too powerful a movie. One must watch this, Believe me i never write about movies or such stuff. This post is the proof that the movies keeps you hypnotized many times. It is very active movie n not good for jus fun-loving, passive a-holes. The flow of the movie, background music, usage of darkness, witty n triple entendre script with the bonus super-fast action scenes make it one of the best movies. Kudos to Joker, he deserves posthumous oscar for sure.
This is dedicated to that special person who is as efficient as Joker.
