"When someone tells me, 'I cannot understand your poem',I am perplexed. What do you say to a person who smells a flower and says 'I cannot understand it?'" -Rabindranath Tagore
This post, i will just wonder,for wonderful is this process of wondering which leads to wonders. Everyone muses some or the other time don't they?
I've often mused how this word muse came about? Perhaps, from amuse, for musings are always accompanied by amusement, sometimes directed at the self,sometimes at others.The site dictionary.com defines musings as thus:
"An elegant tapestry of quotations, musings, aphorisms, and reflections".
How can the word musings contain itself in it's meaning??
"Seers of great wisdom say when a person forgoes their ego, they transcend". But is'nt transcending equivalent to rising? And when some one rises where is the concept of equality?And without equality, how can one forgo ego?
How does vuja de happen? (This is supposedly the opposite of deja vu) Is it equivalent of sensing the past?Or is it the future? Because in deja vu, a person senses that happenings happening around him have happened somewhere before.
Why do secret socities like Freemasons call themselves so? Don't they bind themselves in traditions? So they're neither free nor Masons right?
I've often read the westerners exclaim "Jesus .H . Christ!!" err,no offense but "H" stands for??
Is Death the end of a beginning or the beginning of an end?? If it does culminate something, does the object of culmination free something within it?
So, if you, the learned reader are musing about my saneness, does your musing mean that you are amused by my musings or amused that you see an inkling of your own musings in mine?
Think about it. Or rather muse about it.
Adios.
though i can't boast of seein an inklin of my own musings in ur's, i must admit wid great delight tht ur musings certainly amuse me ! :) smthg tht particularly caught my attention ws d comment on ego.. d transcendin here in my opinion is not above others but rather its rising above one's own shortcomin of ego..to be able 2 rise above d narrow view of one's standing n "image"..n nt of risin above sm1 else, coz tht brings u bk 2 d vicious circle of egoistic belief of being better thn d other person..thus loosin d ego jst transcends u to be a person more at peace wid oneslf n thts gt nuthg 2 do wid comparin urslf 2 be equal or not equal wid d next person! savvy my musings saar ??? :P
