Ever since Yahoo 360 started misbehaving i had no option but to move to some other blogging avenue and that brought me back to this old experiment of mine. and so now its time to revive this and return to my blogging times..
so lets start with some happy news.. it finally rained in Ahmadabad .. and it rained cats and dogs... and true to my spirit i was out under the clouds getting drenched like a kid.. i roamed in waist deep water... found a football and played and made thirty others play with it in ankle deep water lol so much fun and then i also rolled on the floor on the ramp to let the waves of flowing water hit my head .. by the way that is very soothing like a head massage after a hot and tiring day.
so what i can write in few sentences is two hours of fun and a parting gift to a hardworking boy trying to make his place in this world. someone who has slogged and worked hard and came to iim as an employee to find that the students are very much like him but no one taught him to speak good English or build his cv. so it made me happy to give him the happiness.
rain always seems like gods love and i feel as if mother nature is embracing me so it is very very difficult to keep me away from it. my own mother always keep me away from rain as i was delicate as a child but now every time i get drenched i remember her love:) strange are the ways we associate things and justify them to ourselves.
it also brought many people on campus to see the kid in me. i am sure not many would have noticed that there is about a decade between me and them and yet we are all kids inside.
the rain made me miss a lot of people that i have enjoyed with in the rains... the fun the frolic the eroticism the ecstasy the legacy of paper boats and the wild splashing of dirty water lols i feel so energetic again.
the worst is all good things have to come to an end so two hours and i had to gt back to my room to sleep.. and this post has to end to make way for another soon :) till then keep Yo-ing

cosmic dance more
hi guys and gals
and i have a sense that since a male brought up in a typically male domionated indian society writes this most of the readers are bound to be males rather than females.
well its time to unleash the cosmic dance.
why do we celebrate so much segregation of the sexes in the indian society? is it a traditional thing as some people claim it to be or is it just a fad for the out of phase people in the modern era?
well truly speaking i have not come across a single proof in support of segregation in the ancient past except for separate dormataries for lady students in the gurukuls and that too i found was based on the reasoning that by then the division of labour in the society had set in and the separate dorms were part of learnign mechanisms that led to different social functions and it was only to in aid of that and nothing else as per this reding that i had come across long back and forget its reference.
even the movies like trishagni have shown how we have started misinterpreting things for vested interests and how they can put both religion and traditional knowledge in the wrong light.
i have lost so many friends in my life to the segragation of sexes in the indian society despite the fact that i was brought up in the more liberal urban societies. the friends i lost are greatly treasued and the loss has taught me how the so called traditionalists just distrust relationships in the name of culture and tradition without even understanding tradition and culture itself.
wll things move on as they will and so will the world but in the small time duration that we are given (in a metaphysical sense) can we each make a differnce ?? i think we surely can by each trying to abolish one such social misnomer form our lives in our life. did someone say not a big task? i contend that.. our social upbringing drives some things so deep into us because every stimulus is geared to a single but hopelessely wrong end that it makes such a small task a great uphill task in itself.
i have tried and so far have not met with a good measure of success on anything that i have tried in my life but then most of the small time still remains for me and i am not to lose heart so easily. i keep on trying confident to drive above the driven down deep musings of a social upbringing till i can come up with an example to show what i mean when i say that can we try to root out one such social misnomer from our lives?

opening the dance party
hi folks this is my first attempt at making a blog and today ill be jsut content with starting a blog which shall let me share something deep inside me with you all. i am a man of varied interests and a myriad of experiences come my way and as such i call this blog a cosmic dance because ill make you travel with me through not just worldly phenomenon but things which can be celestial and at times transcend the pure physical material domain and into the grey domain of spirituality and well well what the celtics call the skeptical existential reality and at times ill be contradicting myself as well because i believe in learning and i solidly believe in what walt whitman had written somewhere " i am large, i contradict myself , i contain multitudes"
thats all for now i am in a good mood today.
