<h3>Creativity <span class="date">[2023-04-20]</span></h3>
<div class="content">
<p>My mother told me this word "declutter" yesterday, pointing out that I need to de-clutter my room sooner. It has
become a mess recently with lots of junk that I don’t need.</p>
<p>It was quite a surprise for me that she knows this term. Probably she'd have gotten it from watching YouTube
videos which she watches often whilst doing her work.</p>
<p>Suddenly a thought came to my mind now, I mean right now. It is not only about decluttering, but it very much
proves a pertinent recipient for creativity. The points that I’m going to mention below regarding creativity will
also contain more attributes apart from declutter.</p>
<p>Creativity links to our emotional intelligence, even for a mathematician who solves with logic does have one or
other forms of emotional intelligence nevertheless of the disagreement if there is anybody who disagrees with
this. This much is certain for me.</p>
<p>Now coming to one of the nuggets of creativity, that is decluttering your mind. By doing that, we put out the
standing thousand elephants on our head and lit the fire that brings us onto more new thought-processes.</p>
<p>This also means forgetting, by which I mean - forgetting the happenings that trouble you because this often keeps
you in a state of turmoil with fear and worriedness. In order to do this, you need to enter into a space where the
things that trouble you is not within the reach of your subconscious mind. The subconscious mind will act as an
agent for you to get into this space where creative freedom evolves.</p>
<p>This could mean eccentricity to some, like the usual talk goes. Who cares about that anyway if you want to have
some kick in life that you could share with your grandchild later, I mean if you could live up to that stage.
Alright, let’s come back to the point – this way of tricking your habits and bringing it into force where you play
yourself with your subconscious mind, we de-clutter the unwanted happenings at the subconscious level. And that
will lead you to the phase of creative freedom.</p>
<p>Note that this phase of creative freedom has a threshold from person to person. It can stay for a longer period
of time or at a short term. But rest assured – when you can lit that fire in you, you will not be yourself to
worry about this.</p>

<h3>In praise of silent voice <span class="date">[2022-10-20]</span></h3>
<div class="content">
<p>Our societal norms is not only filled with people pertaining to the attributes of materialistic life, it also
contains this false appreciation of superiority to the ones who makes the noise more than others.</p>
<p>I would characterize this as materialist voice. A materialist voice fame oneself onto the glory of power by
falsehood perception that everything belongs and pertain to the ones who put forth the voice.</p>
<p>Whereas, the silent voice doesn’t crave this mania, since it doesn’t wave about the perspective or motive towards
the falsehood of oneself or the others. The silent voice belongs to the self which doesn’t know to part ways
towards one or the other. There is no separation in itself.</p>
<p>The perseverance of silence is silence. The words of no words is silence. Silence touches beyond the realm of
words. It determines the aspective towards clarity in life. Silence cannot be suppressed, it can only be
witnessed.</p>
<p>In the world we live in where the masters of the materialist voice perceives that there is no accordance to the
nature of oneself is within oneself. They think the actions that they take regards to the wellness of others or
for themselves are based on external happenings. The silent voice exemplifies that the worrisome of these external
happenings is the source of not being one in harmony within oneself.</p>
<p>The proximity of silence can get others’ awareness directing to their cause and transform themselves onto the
path of seeking for oneness and harmony.</p>
<p>Henceforth, in praise of silence, I try to say that in the connotation within the realm of words -- it prevails.

Interview with Annamalai Swami by Jim Lemkin
<span class="date">[2020-11-10]</span>
</h3>
<div class="content">
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dbd85YItR-E" target="_blank">YouTube link</a></p>
<p>One of my friends whose name is Hari Krishnan had shared me this video today morning. Like me, he was interested
in searching for the truth, or maybe we could say as a spiritual wellness. I told him that I had his final talks
edited by David Godman as a book. He had come to notice this video interview on YouTube and he shared it with me.
No doubts, I was delighted and thanked him.</p>
<p>So, I just watched the whole video. What Annamalai Swami talks in this video is very simple. But maybe I could
say, my mother tongue being Tamil could be a reason for this.</p>
<p>What the interviewer and the interpreter could try to ask makes much more sense to me, they were trying to see
and perceive what made a Jnani like Annamalai Swami could delve into the self and how did they continue to stay
there in that state their whole life.</p>
<p>Interviewer seems to be an American trying to perceive that how could we live such a life say for example living
in New York or Los Angeles. Where people constantly looking for the other way which is an illusion. By which I
mean, the materialistic life in this samsara.</p>
<p>I was taught in an English medium school. And I came to be in touch with many people from western countries for
the last 10 years by being in ashrams and traveling around. I particularly or firmly established myself in their
way of thinking to achieve something which was - I need recognition from this world. That said, I don't want to
say this is the fault of the westerners. This is of myself. Maybe I could say I was thinking I'm the mind and I'm
the body as Annamalai Swami puts constantly in this video.</p>
<p>Annamalai Swami asks, when you are in a deep sleep, do you know who you are? Then the conversation goes like
this, we don’t - So, we are not the mind and we are not the body. Who else then? The Self which is known as Atman
is a revered word in this philosophy. I cannot say it clearly because the irony is that – I'm like that
interviewer who sometimes can feel that but it fades away because of this society that we are living in.</p>
<p>One more important question regarding the point I’ve mentioned above which is fading away, Swami says that
constant inquiry is Jnana which resonates with me deeply.</p>
<p>It seems like reading, watching and understanding is all few percentages but the thing is we need to stay there
and inquire ourselves the question that Swami says.</p>

<h3>Is it really smart work? <span class="date">[2022-05-02]</span></h3>
<div class="content">
<p>Just went to a tea shop, the FM Radio played about doing smart work instead of hard work.</p>
<p>And I heard this statement multiple times. I think that is not a valid statement to me unless I'm missing
something.</p>
<p>Every smartness that comes in you is the hours and days you put your effort in to mastery</p>
<p>IOW, smart work is the asset of hard work.</p>
<p>To put in another way, It is through the hardship, the time gives you the gift of experience which is the
foundation for smart work.</p>

My admiration and respect for Bruce Lee
<span class="date">[2022-12-17]</span>
</h3>
<div class="content">
<p>Many generations come and go and as an individual you most likely have few people in the past to admire and learn
from them and try to incorporate the working some of those characteristics for you.</p>
<p>And for me, Bruce Lee is one such person. I'll try to explain how and why his life had impacted me on my
professional carrier and more so with my personal life. More importantly, I'm going to convey this in my own style
without formally reading his books or books written by others about him.</p>
<p>We all know that Bruce Lee is not just an extraordinary martial artist but also a deep thinker. So, that much I
know from watching videos about him and some resources and his quotations that I learned from the Internet. Hence,
I'm going to give a brief of what my perspectives about him are.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk1lzkH-e4U" target="_blank">Bruce Lee Interview by Pierre Berton</a>
</p>
<p>Bruce Lee's simple philosophy of living is his explanation of "Be Water" portrayed in his The "Lost" Interview in
Pierre Berton show. There is a catch in that which is very important where he says "be formless and shapeless". It
means that if you are too rigid on yourself; you cannot grow and mature in your life. It can be seen in his
fighting style that were changed and adopted during different phases of his life and coming up with his own
martial artform called Jeet Kune Do.</p>
<p>It doesn't end there; he also puts one more important point in that interview which is the yin-yang philosophy.
He portrays that as - "You cannot be too natural or too unnatural, the ideal solution is natural unnaturalness or
unnatural naturalness".</p>
<p>This is what they say in Buddhism, walking the middle path or to put in other terms, the way of life is to change
what you can, but never lose to go with the flow as well.</p>
<p>One of those many thoughts of Bruce Lee that was said by his close knits and his students is he wants you to live
by your own goals with your own principles and not just being a mere follower of somebody or himself, but
expressing yourself honestly to others and to the world.</p>
<p>There are many players in this world, who inspire by talk. But the man in the arena guy for me is Bruce Lee.
Because his very living in this world is an example that one can succeed with hard work, determination and deep
focus.</p>

<p>There is occurrence and non-occurrence. In-between we say there is life. This happens in the samsara, the world.
Beyond that there is something omnipotent, let it be God or Nature. My point is that that is what I breath, we all
