Betrayal!

Its better to be betrayed by friends then to betray them - Goethe

Plato's refutation of subjectivism.

I was reading Plato's critique of Sophist's subjectivism.Sophists of ancient Greece used to argue that only an individual knows what is good for himself and what is harmful.The only scale of judgement in this regard is subjective conception of every particular individual.But Plato argues that if every individual knows what is good for himself then it follows that no one will make mistakes.But we see that people do make mistakes.So,one cant always say that one knows what is good for oneself.

Love and Bonding.

We were exactly like each other.Same habits,same nature,same passions and same feelings.Yet we were not meant to be together.We could only had been together ,if we were different from each other.The opposites always attract each other ,and we found ourselves repulsive because we were similar and not different.Then what else is love ?

Nietzsche answers,

"What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do…? "
Friedrich Nietzsche

Wake up!

Some Brahmin once asked Buddha whether he considered himself God or Human.Buddha answered saying, "Neither. I am just one who has woken up while the rest of you are still sleeping." .
