THE WATERED DOWN JUSTIFICATION OF THE VILLAIN WITHIN! #BlogchatterBlogHop

"I HAVE JUST NINE MORE MONTHS

To go to be freed from the present. At last I can breath my own air of freedom then. But.. Whatever be it.. I can never forget all those who are responsible for my this state today and I've my own plan of punishing them. Till then I won't rest. People don't know who am I within when roused!"

The villain fumed at peak..

The Inner Consciousness next gently asked..

"What are you saying? Don't you know because of such thoughts alone you got into this presently?"

The villain retorted back..

"Whatever, I don't care. How can I forget all that happened to me? I'm not a fool here to keep quite. I can't let them go off. Tell me.. What else I should do now after I get out of this rut? Go and touch their feet?"

The Inner Consciousness reminded..

"I'm not asking you to do that. Can you just be aware of the total turmoil you had undergone till date from a certain time when all these looked normal?"

The villain explained 1:1..

"Yeah.. I know.. In the beginning it was all rosy and everywhere there were smiles. I thought it's cool situation and thus relaxed for a while. And without my own knowledge, things started speaking different..

I could have easily brought the situation under perfect control had I paid a little extra attention in the right time. That's where I have done the wrong calculation. Unfortunately, as I further relaxed a bit more, things just went out of control!"

The Inner Consciousness questioned..

"So basically you agree that you erred. Then why talk of others now? Tell me why did you relax beyond foregoing the care required in time?"

The villain pleaded..

"Yeah.. I know that was my weakness and these people knew where I could be pinned down. Tell me why at all they should do this even though partly I was at fault?"

The Inner Consciousness firmly asked..

"Leave that now. Your present interest should be not to do all those mathematical calculations. It's not your job on this earth and there is a Higher Order which controls that.. Being 100% equipped yourself as a human being, why did you let lose this weakness?"

The villainous nature vanished.. Humanity surfaced.. The Inner Consciousness concluded..

"Whatever, you are now blessed with the quality of discrimination with you as the right weapon to wage this war against the single enemy pride in you all along driving out from you the attitudes of

• Taking things easy,
• Getting into an endless enjoyment mode and
• Constantly hovering over the lower aspects of life thru' a grabbing tendency!

Go ahead steadily and replace the above weaknesses in you with these strengths Viz.,

• Ever Alertness,
• A sincere Service to Humanity and
• A Meditating Attitude on the Higher aspects of life thru' certain Sacrifice and thus rise thru' Humility within..

YOU HAVE JUST DONE THE RIGHT JOB IN THIS LIFE!"

A LETTER TO RUSKIN BOND ON HIS BIRTH DAY! #BlogchatterBlogHop

My daughter is an avid reader and Ruskin Bond ranks among her favourite authors.  Her letter to Ruskin Bond on his 92nd Birthday is brought out by me thru' my blog for my Readers to read and comment..  

Dear Mr. Bond,

I am writing to share how much your work means to me, especially your wonderful handling of suspense. When I sat down to write this letter, I found it impossible to pick just one favourite story, so I chose two that have left a lasting impression on me.

My two greatest loves in life have always been the Himalayas and trains, which is precisely why your writing resonates with me on such a deep level. Reading your books as a child kindled a dream of travelling to the mountains. I am happy to say that I have finally visited Dehradun, Shimla, and Mussoorie as an adult. Seeing the very places featured so prominently in your stories was the fulfilment of a cherished childhood dream.

What fascinates me most about your writing is how you take ordinary experiences, such as a train journey through the foothills or a solitary walk through a pine forest, and give them an atmosphere of quiet mystery. You beautifully illustrate that the mountains are not merely scenic, but that they possess a lonely, enigmatic quality of their own.

In "The Eyes Have It," the suspense is wonderfully subtle. I love how two passengers can share a train compartment, both pretending they can see the world outside, only for the reader to realise at the very end that they were both blind. It is such a clever, moving twist, and it beautifully captures the unique atmosphere of a train journey.

By contrast, "A Face in the Dark" delivers suspense of a much more chilling nature. It is so brilliantly unexpected how a crying student, someone who inherently needs the protection and guidance of a schoolmaster, ends up becoming the very entity that terrifies him. The masterstroke, however, is the second twist with the watchman. By stripping away any sense of sanctuary, the ending leaves us entirely in suspense, desperately wondering about the ultimate fate of Mr. Oliver in those dark woods. It still gives me goosebumps every time I think about it.

Thank you for crafting stories that capture the true essence of the mountains and train journeys, and for giving us mysteries that stay with us for a lifetime.

WHY SHOULD I BE DUTY BOUND IN MY LIFE?

"Sir!  What are untruth and Truth?"

"Dear! What my mind says is untruth; what my Consciousness says is Truth!"

"Then why not every one listen to his/her Consciousness and remain Truthful?"

"Yes.. If one really could do that, that's all life is.  But my mind comes in the way to do that!"

"Then let me not listen to my mind; that's it!"

"It's not that easy!"

"Why?"

My mind never keeps me peaceful unless I listen to it!"

"Ok.. I want to be Truthful.. Hell with my mind.. I don't want to listen to it!"

"If you really start doing that soon you will see that you are nothing in front of your mind!"

"How?"

"Yes.. If I don't listen to my mind, it never keeps quiet and

Coaxing me gently and 

Luring me with peanuts in no time

Unleashes its wrath on me

Terrorizing me beyond and

Catching me thus and

Holding me under its tight grip soon

Establishes its firm rule on me making me

Surrender to its decisions eternally keeping me under its

CLUTCHES!

Will you be happy facing this turmoil non stop in your life or better make agreement with your mind?"

"?????"

"No ordinary human being can face that type of conflict with him/her. So each settles at a level that is feasible for him/her, neither less nor more and it is equally wisdom to do that..

That what is feasible for me to do is defined by our elders as 

Relative truth wrt me or my duty 

And it is ever wisdom with me, I be living at that relative truth level 

Sincerely doing my Duty!"

"Beyond?"

"Beyond, it is blank with me today and I Rise in my life only thru' 

Grace of Cosmos

Myself living thru'

Prayer if I am a Believer

Or

Experimentation if I am a Non Believer!"

DO YOU KNOW THE TRUTHFUL STORY?

• A lie may be a well cooked tasty recipe but ever served with hatred whereas Truth may be Nature's raw recipe but ever served with love!

• Truth is unique and lies are varied in content and quantum!

• Truth responds instantly as all stories around human being speak only that; lie takes time to respond as suitable story is to be necessarily built around there!

• Lies may appear all colorful but ever filled with selfishness; Truth is all powerful and ever filled with only selflessness!

• Stories filled with lies are varied; stories filled with Truth are unique!

• Truth fills all gaps patiently which lies leave behind hastily!

• The all pervading Truth smiled when lie screamed aloud saying, "None can beat me in spreading around the fastest!"

• Lies instigate one to be forceful and revengeful all round;Truth makes one to be resourceful and useful around!

BOYCOTT Vs SILENCE IN HUMAN INTERACTIONS!

• Talking to him on phone,
• Meeting him evenings on weekdays,
• Joining him for outing on weekends and
• Eating together on Sunday, lunch or dinner!"

"For me too, those interactions include

• Thinking about him,
• Talking to him on phone,
• Meeting him evenings on weekdays,
• Joining him for outing on weekends and
• Eating together on Sunday lunch or dinner!"

Said the 2nd one..

2 weeks passed..

"My tempo of keeping him off goes on steadily non stop. He would have learnt a life time lesson here thru' my this

BOYCOTT!"

Said the 1st one proudly..

"My plan of keeping away from him is over last Sunday. I've learnt a valuable lesson here thru' my this

SILENCE!"

Said the 2nd one humbly!
