I look up when I walk
So the tears won't fall
Remembering those happy spring days
But tonight I'm all alone

I look up when I walk
Counting the stars with tearful eyes
Remembering those happy summer days
But tonight I'm all alone
Happiness lies beyond the clouds
Happiness lies above the sky
I look up when I walk
So the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
*Hitoribotchi no yoru
For tonight I'm all alone(whistling)
Remembering those happy autumn days
But tonight I'm all alone
Sadness hides in the shadow of the stars
Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon
I look up when I walk
So the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
*For tonight I'm all alone(whistling)

17th century scientific revolution..

Science to me is a product of different societies,western science itself had gone under many transformations until 17th century scientific revolution.What was different in that revolution that stoped any further changes in the paradigm of science itself?
The answer is quite complex but perhaps the best possible answer to me is that the 17th century scientific revolution came up with the idea that nature was pure quantity and a machine to be treated mathematically.That idea is the cornerstone of the secularization of science and the cutting of the hand of God from studing nature.I personally(or naively) believe that there should be a change in the paradigm of science itself to open up the new possible ways of studing nature.

Secret love.

How often one misunderstands secret love as being true love.

Tragedy.

How much wrong could i have been when i thought that person understood my silence when infact he never even understood my words.And how heart broken did i feel when i thought that person can read my eyes ,when infact he never looked into my eyes.

Limitations.

Sometimes recognising ones limitations is the only thing one can achieve.

The true morality.

The only true morality in a cruel world is 'chance',totally unbaised and totally unfair - Two face

Loneliness Vs. Solitude

“Language... has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.”


Paul Tillich.

Tauheed!

Tauheed (Unity of God) tu yeh hei ke khudaa hasher key din keh dey
Yeh banda khefaa dono jehaan sei marey liye hey

(Muhammed Ali Johar)

Imitation.

Pretence.

Its strange how easily man becomes a a victim to his own pretences.And when he realizes his own victimisation ,he represses that feeling and utmosltly try to live in a state of denial in the first stage,in the second stage he gets annoyed tries everything to get rid of his own pretences but fails,in the third and final stage he just laughs at his own pretences because these are the secret little ways of tolerating ones aloneness(Nietzsche's words).

Till then i walk alone.

No matter how pessimist a person is,one cant totally get rid of the hope.Even in the worst of times man keeps pushing the deadbody of hope ,which is nothing but a moral obligation as G.B.Shaw put it.


I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a



My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Unconditional Surrender.

Mysticism is a kind of weakness,its not at all a courageous act .Any kind of mysticism that demands seclusion,passive abstract thinking and inaction is surely a delusion.As Rumi said that how can an ever active God demands such a faith which is devoid of action.I think that is where Rumi is different from other mystics,he compels man to act.Unlike his other contemporary mystics who find peace in seclusion,Rumi wants man to stand for himself and act in such a way that not only establishes his reltion to God but also universe and humanity.

Nietzsche sums up the traditional mysticism in one line,he says,

"People think mystic truths are deep ,when they are only superficial'.


All in all, such a mysticism is an unconditional surrender infront of the harsh realities of life,its just like closing ones eyes and running away from life.So,beware of suck dark mysticism.
