Several years ago, I started writing these blogs and had given up since then owing to circumstance of life, (got married and had a kid and therefore, was quite busy). I wish to take it up again. The main difference is that at that time my thoughts were mostly on lofty philosophical topics on how things shoule be, rather than how they actually are. I wish to correct that error and would now focus exclusively on the present situation. Not that I disown the earlier idea, but, simply because a focus on how it should be may divert the attention from what is and life cannot be experienced in should be terms but only in "is" terms. So, any description or meditation on it must also abandon that language as much as possible.This empahsis on "what is" is inspired by my forays into Vipassana meditation several years ago under the guidance of our beloved teacher Late Shri S. N. Goenka. He passed away about an year ago but, continues to remind me of this fact.
