An office online chat...

Highlander- Ok your last post is a good read....”avaritia”...like the discussion we had in Gurgaon.
Mayz- Ya, I remember
Highlander- Prose for a difference...
Mayz- Ya know… the last paragraph was where i wanted to show a little bit of helplessness
Mayz- thats why in third person
Highlander- Tht's bit like Caesar...He always talked about himself in the third person...
Mayz- hmmm
Highlander- Makes me feel like giving the world an ultimatum!!
Mayz- hmmm...like what?
Highlander- Something like this....
Highlander- All gold n riches under the sky are the same for me...
Highlander- Nothing in the world can shake my firm convictions...
Highlander- Neither do I need any help to feed them...
Highlander- It's easy to destroy; difficult to build....
Highlander- I personally prefer the constructive mode..
Highlander- But there is another side of me that revels and thrives in destruction...complete dissolution...
Highlander- There's another Highlander within me whom I've bound in chains…
Highlander- The wounded animal....
Mayz- da wolf
Highlander- If I start disassembling, I'll not stop...I shall turn everything into it's primal, attribute-less, particulate, basic state..
Highlander- Do not provoke me to destroy anything...
Highlander- Not much good shall come out of it...
Highlander- Don't try to export sand to Rajasthan...
Mayz- u shud write abt this
Highlander- hmmm... but then the hand that throws everything to dissolution or Pralaya...
Highlander- Must be stopped n turned into the Abhay Mudra...
Highlander- That desire must come from within...once that happens the desire shall attain a bodily form...
Highlander- The gentle, protecting, nourishing, forgiving, female half of Yin..
Highlander- To bring chaos back to balance...
Highlander- In English,that means I should give birth to a girl who can then double as my mate.. :-)
Mayz- u shud copy all this n post it in ur blog
Highlander- You think ppl will read such crap??
Mayz- this is not crap man
Highlander- Reads like the thoughts of a guy high on LSD n Vedanta.. :-)
Mayz- i like that state
Mayz- gives mind a different pedestal to think from
Mayz- thoughts gush out liberally
Highlander- problem is that Vedanta's more addictive than LSD... :-)
Highlander- gives you an unexplained high...something feeling alive every moment...may be not on the physical side.
Mayz- life has n never will b physical
Highlander- it has to man...it's the lowest state of life...how else do you type these keys?? :-)
Mayz- we r drones
Mayz- zombies
Mayz- lifeless thoughtless creatures created by d world
Mayz- not d ones god wanted us to b
Highlander- brainless?? existing on others' brains??
Mayz- this is not life as god defines it
Mayz- this is life as WE define it
Highlander- He never defines it man...
Highlander- Yeah, we define it...
Mayz- he calls it nirvana
Mayz- he calls it a balance btwn d stiff n d flow
Mayz- btwn d essence n d core
Highlander- If we fail to define it in this life, we'll do it in the next..
Mayz- we were better off as animals
Highlander- thoughtless, merely existential??
Highlander- do nothing but think abt food, mating n survival??
Highlander- What abt thoughts like peace, love n sacrifice n kindness??
Highlander- I don;t think we would share our food with another if we were animals..
Mayz- who says animals r not at peace?
Mayz- no love u say??
Mayz- no kindness??
Mayz- more than humans...any given day
Highlander- not to anyone out of their type...
Highlander- Have you seen a lion nurse a doe?? or a human??
Mayz- we r men...not humans
Highlander- What's his basic instinct??
Mayz- bahut mushkil hai aadmi ko insaan banana
Highlander- hmm..yeah..but not impossible...
Mayz- coz u r thinkin like a man
Mayz- not as a human
Highlander- no yaar, being human is the highest quality that one can attain...
Highlander- why else do you think the human spirit is exalted so much??
Mayz- coz humans think
Highlander- yeah, and animals can't think to the extent that humans can..
Highlander- if they could, the concept of the food chain would have been obsolete....
Mayz- food chain...man made concept
Mayz- we don’t know… maybe they too have an essence
Highlander- definitely they do…but they're not conscious to be aware of it...
Mayz- coz they r pure
Highlander- Yes, it's man made, though that's what's seen in Nature for ages...
Highlander- No yaar, only that consciousness is pure...
Highlander- once you just be, that means you’re aware of all that exists, existed n will exist..
Highlander- It's from the desire that rose from the unadulterated consciousness that all creation has happened...
Mayz- who says?
Mayz- man again?
Highlander- yes...
Highlander- Even our own limited intellect follows the same principle..
Highlander- You see anyone else talkin abt it??
Highlander- any other form of creation??
Mayz- do we know whether anyone else does?
Highlander- Has there been any written record of a plant or an animal striving to attain Moksha??
Highlander- that's why even in the scriptures, the heavenly gods have to come down to be born as humans to strive for Moksha..
Mayz- man written scriptures?
Highlander- yes..everything has to reach this launchpad....
Highlander- Human stage is just a launchpad, where lies infinite potential...
Highlander- Why else do scientists say that 90% of our potential always goes wasted??
Highlander- It's because of the sheer variety of wonders tht a disciplined human mind can create....
Mayz- mind....not human mind
Highlander- yeah, actually mind only...
Highlander- if the animals had ways to sharpen their creative intellect, then they also would've created wonders...
Mayz- n destroyed everything around like we r doing
Mayz- for own good
Highlander- haan, that's where the dual nature of intellect comes in...
Highlander- the mind and the intellect always will be working towards self-gratification....
Highlander- Whatever be the means...
Highlander- Power to create can both nourish n corrupt...
Mayz- its a double edged sword
Highlander- Yes.....
Mayz- n d worst thing is we don’t know how to use it
Mayz- if we did we would b humans...n that’s y we r men
Mayz- not humans
Highlander- hmmm…there again, we can acquire the ability..
Highlander- I remember reading a book, "Dear children, become humans first".
Mayz- we'll destroy everything by then
Highlander- Not always, there's always something left to carry on the legacy of the human spirit...
Mayz- d thought of niravana...d thought of moksha
Mayz- thats wat is left in d end
Highlander- yes, for it is only by being humans that we can attain fulfilment n also help others do so....
Mayz- exactly...but r v doin that
Highlander- well aren’t all of us unconsciously harboring the same thougtht??
Mayz- its d present we care for
Highlander- yeah..I agree...
Highlander- Dude, I just got a wild idea…I'm gonna post this conversation in my next blog..
Highlander- :-)
Mayz- haha...i was thinkin d same thing
Highlander- HA HA HA!!
Mayz- go ahead
Highlander- he he...Will do...

The End

Love.....

Love is the blackest of all plagues, and if one could die of it, there would be some pleasure in love.But you almost always get over it.

There are only a couple of poor wretches who die of love once in a while.

Love is as contagious as a cold in the nose.

It eats away at your strength, your independence, your morale, if you have any.

If everything is imperfect in this imperfect world, love is most perfect in its perfect imperfection.

The first time..

Well, I never thought I'd make up a blog like this, coz I'm too lazy..But a good friend of mine The Fallen Angel (http://www.satanzmantra.blogspot.com/) has been eating away my ears for quite some time with his constant demand that I start a blog on my own...Well here it is...
I think I owe an explanation regarding my blog URL http://www.darkning.blogspot.com/. Well, we get intermittent visions of things during flashes of lightning..Well what if just the opposite of Lightning happens?? Darkning?? Flashes of darkness...That's what I explore here...Normally in private, but now, I've been coerced to share...And actually I don't seem to mind it right now...
Till next post, paakkalaam...
