About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find someone who can answer my questions

ABOUT ME

For me, it is all about increasing the sample( experiences ) size and diversifying the variety of the samples to get better understanding/feel of the "samples in general'', so I am constantly doing new activities, meeting new people, going new places, watching the change, understanding the variety, perceiving the history by analyzing the customs, cultures & rituals behind, to build in some logic, working on my conclusions, making my judgments and ultimately having FUN doing all this. I travel, have loads of friends, am a nature freak ( camped & trekked many a forests, love swimming(jumping into waters, rowing ... ), keep mapping life & philosophy - diving deeper and deeper into understanding mind and its nature - a big fan of Jiddu Krishnamurti, watch a lot of movies ( of all times, genres , languages...), love conversations that have insights, interesting experiences and of course blah blah with best buddies...Deep down, I am aware of the activity of my Mind and understand all its projections from moment to moment. So as much as possible I can act/listen/understand without my ego hindrance.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a constant chase behind self imposed challenges ( Aware, Unaware & Arbitrary ). THOUGHT is the response of 'memory' to those challenges. Hence, the continuous production of thoughts digging our memory every moment creating chains of thoughts from clusters of memories. To stop this continuous chatter of nothingness, Either we can drop 'the memory' or drop 'the challenges'... Dropping 'memory' is not possible, dropping the self imposition of 'challenge' is easier... dropping the 'Ego hindrance' that constantly takes up these challenges is the way...
