akshara;
the imperishable, unchangeable and indestructible
the very word,letter, syllable
the pranava OM
the dettatreya trinity of brahma vishnu and shiva


so here's my thoughts amplified
this colloquy that i have with myself now here
the search for the things that remain constant in this life of changes, the things that are imperishable
yet cherishing the most simple things in life that may seem so unimportant and small but add beauty and colour,
to seek out the unfathomable, powers beyond our wildest dreams
the sanatana dharma to be upheld,
and the karma that we cannot run or hide from for it is the very equation we need to balance out
and hence the very reason of our existence
with a mic up my soul let the story unfold,
the past be forgotten and a new tale told.

यत्र यत्र रघुनाथ कीर्तनम् तत्र तत्र क्रित मस्तक अन्जलिं बष्पावरी परीपूर्ण लोचनम् मारुतिं नमश्च राक्षस अंतकम्।

sakhyam
to be blessed with a true friend
is a boon presented to a penance of many births
a qualification not many can justify to
thus the reason why it's such a rare gem

let perfection be in the eye of the beholder
for the many watching eyes look on
peering through the cracks in your soul
digging into the weaknesses of your character
waiting for a chance to take you down
in hopes of hiding their own faults
to make them feel stronger
so let it be

hug me tight a warmth in love
take a knife and put it against my skin 
the cold blade sending a warning chill
then you start to hack away
only to leave me naked, cold and in gore
yet me eyes will look at you only in compassion
such was the character
but if you keep polishing a stone
pushing its edge for perfection
no sooner will it disintegrate right infront of your face
and then will you regret your actions and miss its presence

so this is the scene
but in the end the one true friend
who has always been there for you
who will be able to judge you in all truth
will be yourself
create a universe within yourself
and then you can take this whole earth 
within your palm making it a part of you
there's so much more to life
so much that truly matters and counts
i'm moving forward
saying goodbye has become a habitual skill for me
and here's one for you :)

indignation

amidst the "go-with-the-flow" sheep
one stands firm against conformity
it takes much valor to stand up for what you believe in
just cos' others do it, does not make it right
something that i constantly remind myself about
is the fact that when you're prepared to do the right thing
you have to be prepared to do it alone too
i've spent the past 2 years pinning hopes and beliefs on others
good friends i would say
and their failure to deliver took a toll on me
which made me realize that humans are selfish creatures
always weighing their ulterior motives
and my god indians are lazy people who love to talk and not do work
plus recent switches in values of people around me
has induced a venomous disgust in me for them
so like weeds in a padi field i've decided to pluck them out
yea I'm cold and hard 
but i believe in god's purpose of existence for everyone one of us
and I'm blessed with a friend, heart of gold
there must be a reason why things happened this way
there must be a reason why i feel this way
21 years of falling down and relentlessly picking myself up
will not go to waste
the question right now is
ARE YOU GOING TO FINISH STRONG?

i would like to apologize to those who actually read my blog
i know lately it's been excessively emotional
but NO it does not mean that i'm going through a phase
it's actually me being lazy
i've been using the blog as a channel to vent the negative emotions
not a good idea i realized
other than that i've been too much of a sloth to update on the happenings
or share a view or 2
which i promise i will pretty soon 
at this very moment i'm good
its almost a year since i started taking percussion seriously 
latin afro and indian
it's been good and i've gone places, god's will
but it's time to take it to the next level
let's just see how it works out
but for this year it's alot of observing and learning
gandharva plan

you asked me whether i used you
but i keep wondering if its the other way round
at the moment i'm sorting out the mess
my tolerance and give-a-shit level is at its lowest 
ask my friend, she'll tell you
but somehow my dads always been giving valuable advice at the right time
and ragu's presence is invaluable
this weeks plan: voodoo and my room

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody's gone mad
Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don't you black or white me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
