Mind Game.........

-->
The mind is the web in its own. It weaves its own net of thoughts. It plays a game of its own called the Mind game. The mind game is from inception till the last breath.

It’s not only complex but also highly unpredictable. It behaves like an explicit entity within an individual. It’s next to impossible to understand its intentions and its thought progression. It has its own ways and means of expressing.

It thrives for more than what it has at present. It looks for opportunities unexplored, but when achieved, gets entangled and wants to set free. It plays a snake-Ladder game.
It looks for emotions unexpressed, words unsaid, but when said and expressed, it is in a daze for a while. It wants to be in control and free at the same time. Be childlike and matured altogether. Wants to be an intellectual and also an idiot.

Wants to be generous and adamant Then we start thinking---Is it a mind driven or heart driven? Even at that point, it is the mind that drives. It wants to be left in its own fantasized world and yet be practical. It gets nostalgic and is pulled back to reality the next moment. It contradicts its own thought process. It longs to be left alone in its cavity but is still at distress.

Maybe because when left alone, it looks for the company of another mind that matches or understands it. When found, feels it is crowded again. Now, with new additional thoughts and more complex emotions. Takes indecisive decisions, only to regret later. It gets tough and at times too venerable to handle. It expresses greed and ultimate satisfaction.
It gets violent and is at peace like a saint.

Moreover, it is an unknown mystery to itself. It has its own hollow places and dark valleys.
We all play games with our mind and it plays completely a different tournament with us.
Could be a possibility that my mind is also playing its own game unknown to me in its own manner. Unknown to neither itself nor me...It’s all a game and all in the mind game...

A Writeup-From one woman to another

Yet another year and we hit 8th MARCH-INTERNATIONAL WOMAN’S DAY.   This day is observed to celebrate the women achievers in various fields across the globe devoid of economic, cultural background, religion, race, or nationality. Initially, it kicked off in 1909 in US from a labour movement in North America wherein the women workers protested against the working conditions. From then on, it emerged from being from just fighting for working conditions to considering and working for women rights across the globe for various reasons. This day is also known as United Nations day for women rights and International peace. Women and peace on the same day? I have this kind of reaction as I’ve usually heard that women are non peace makers. Wars are fought because of a Woman. Families are fallen apart because of the Woman. The Epic Ramayana and the Mahabharata happened because of a Woman. Let’s have a look at these events known in Hindu Mythology. Had Sita-in Ramayana not bee...

I am You AND You are Me!

Have you ever thought about comparison? Something that is so easy to do but is highly complex in its form? As a Child and a growing adult, I detested being compared with anyone. I did not understand the reason.  I kept thinking, how can one be compared with another? It is often executed as if it does not matter and is done as a matter of fact! I never understood why it is even done... One thing I knew was how it made me feel. What implications it can have. Comparison is a mighty Tool. It often breaks one but at times builds the Craziest ones. The ones it builds end up repeating the "Compare cycle game" Comparison is not saying, you are not doing or studying or performing like the other person but it is also trying and striving to be like a "PARTICULAR PERSON"  Why do you want to be someone else? Be a Photocopy? Why not be YOU? I was often asked, "Who is your Idol? Whom do You follow?" My all-time answer would be "NONE". I say that because there i...

The inner conflict

TO BE OR NOT TO BE- is phrased by Shakespeare in one of his plays-Hamlet. The everyday line for day to day life series is TO DO OR NOT TO DO.   The duality of the mind, the flip-flops of thoughts, the space between the doing and the undoing seems to have captured the souls of every individual. We are usually caught up in-between actions, words, gestures either with oneself or another. Human beings are social animals but are still animals in our own ways.   We love to please all and want to be in good books of all expect one IMPORTANT PERSON- Own self. This is the first step of conflict. A conflict with oneself. The conflict of the outward self with the inward self.   It is a pull and push mechanism. The inner self wants to push the outward self in loving oneself and the outward self is pulling away from listening to it. We resent ourselves from listening to our inner self. We fail to act its way. The reason could be, because we know it does not manipulate or ...
