This Goddamned Heat!!!

So the heat seems to be rising here. As I walked in the burning daylight of noon today, with sweat sliding down my ass crack, there seemed to be so many people around that probably were going through the same, but seemed to be perfectly okay with the heat.

Why is this heat burning our skin? Global warming? Or do you think God was freezing up there and probably raised the temperature cause he felt like it?

Either ways its not the guy in the sky who is affected, it's us. It is our skin that develops cancer and our life that melts here. The profuse sweating in my boxers only indicate that the world is fucked. But then again, who knows? We might be just a few years away from the next Ice Age.

Now, if we do face an Ice Age, do you believe that God will ever change thermostat of his heavenly bachelor pad?(I have never heard of God being married. Of course some Hindu Gods are married but there are too many of them and not all the readers will understand the context.)

Speaking of Hinduism, there is a shlok in the Bhagvat Gita:

"Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya, Glanirva Bhavathi Baharatha,

Abhyuthanam Adharmaysya, Tadatamanam Srijami Aham."

"Paritranaya Sadhunam, Vinashaya Cha Dushkritam,

Dharmasansthapanarthaya Sambhavami Yuge-Yuge"

To set it all into basics, God, Lord Vishnu (the protector) always works to bring the world into balance. All his Avatars, have been to set things right, to undo the wrong and restore Dharma. So is this what we are facing now?

To restore the Dharma, we must we face the terrible heat?

Well, simply said, 'As you sow, so shall you reap.' We have raped Mother Earth of her resources and now we face Global Warming as a result of the chaos that is but our own creation.

Now, the question is, will we wipe that sweaty ass of ours and go back to not giving a fuck?

Or will we try to do something. I don't know what I will be doing. I made a blogpost (a pretty long one at that.).

What will you do?

May the Darkness guide you to Your Light!

Celebrating Existence

Just my last post, I mentioned the first anniversary of my film ‘Désespoir’. Today, I’ll mention something even more intimate. Today I finish 20 revolutions around our lovely sun.

Well, this might seem like a ‘Hey its my Birthday. Give me attention!’ post, but its not. I had some thoughts that churned in my mind. As the day passed by, with the societal rituals being followed, candle, cake and gifts being happily consumed, I began to think of a more deeper issue. I had finished almost 20-25% of my life, assuming that I would live to be at least 80 in this disease trodden world. With that, I understood, I entered a new phase of life. One where things will, and I too should, get serious. A new Phase. A new Chapter.

So many have been born on this very same day. So many have died as well. But I spend the day in lovely companionship with my friends, not caring about any of that. And no matter how dark and black I may be on the inside, I cannot but help it. I love them all. They got me the best gifts ever. A tiny army knife, many books, and loads of other things. To be true, these material gains I received have terribly overwhelmed me with a great wave of happiness and joy.

And as these thoughts cross my mind, I believe that the coming year is when I will, and I definitely should, begin my steps, from walking to sprinting, towards my goal. This is the second time I have done the same type of post. But this one is mainly to thank my friends for their blessing good wishes and to pay gratitude to the Gods that may or may not exist, for all the good and bad that has happened. For I am what I am because of everything in the past.Today, I truly do celebrate. Not the anniversary of my birth, but I celebrate my very existence.

The Past be a Prequel,

The Present its Sequel,

While the Future, an announced production,

That has yet to be planned.

It cannot exist without the Present’s presence,

Which in turn is nothing without the Past’s existence.

Life is a cyclic force, living with rules of causality.

It is our Dharma, it is our Karma,

To be what we must,

And to seek what we are,

for better or worse,

Through the Darkness, that envelopes us,

To the light we all seek,

But you mustn’t look for light,

Instead, embrace the darkness,

For Life is exactly that,

A meaningless concept,

That is full of Abstracts.
