About Me

My photo
Hi, this is somebody who has taken the quieter by-lane to be happy. The hustle and bustle of the big, booming main street was too intimidating. Passing through the quieter by-lane I intend to reach a solitary path, laid out just for me, to reach my destiny, to be happy primarily, and enjoy the fruits of being happy. (www.sandeepdahiya.com)

Random thoughts

Sometimes the godly scheme requires us to swim upstream against the current. Don’t feel bitterness by seeing others floating easily downstream. You the able-bodied have been chosen for the task because you have the muscles in your willpower to go upstream. This selection of yours is the reward in itself.

Majority of our hits or miss in life are born of what we say instead of what we do.

Lost in the sweet-sour shades of some pleasantly painful memories, I look back. But the scene left behind by me has been deftly stolen by some winds from the other direction. The stage seems excitedly full of new characters. With a sad smile I turn away and look ahead. Across the sandy veil of dispirited horizon some cool shades are visible. With slow steps I move ahead, hoping for an oasis. Well that’s life fella, we have to set out anyway.

What is success after all? Is it beating others in their achievements? Or beating others' expectations from you? Or surpassing your own dreams? Or a wispy, pleasant feeling at the day end, 'Fella you have not been a mere weight on earth!'

Worldwide peace and harmony doesn't need authority, power centers and hegemony to sustain. But the latter--authority, power centers and hegemony--surely need strife, wars, violence and bloodbath to sustain it. Peace has never been the focal point of geostrategists. If it were, most of the issues we are fighting about become redundant by default.

***

Life can be a bit good, provided we know to save our goodness from being eaten up to fatten someone's badness.

***

Embraced by the pining silence and stillness of these mute hours, my detached self grows more detached and aloof like those misty distances virginally spread out under the star light.

***

It's never my, your, his, her, their truth. It's a mysterious point equidistant from all of us.

***

This is your day..this sun shines for you, to fill your heart with warmth..hours go calculatedly to manage things in the best manner...this breeze is for you to delicately whisper the best wishes for you...this sky is for you to fly majestically...this cosmos is for you; you are its king!

The High tide of darkness swallowed the star, and the gloom added to its invisible shades to the distances far.

Ultimately symbolism is as substantive as the material reality. So if Diwali symbolizes the victory of light over dark, then fellows consider it as effective as your struggle to overcome the bad past, your penance to undo the wrongs you have been doing till now, your efforts to reach the hitherto unsurmounted summits in your life.

***

Bad is nothing but less good, just like good is nothing but less bad...duality is an illusion that surfaces at increasing distance from the attritubeless axis, the constant, the unchanged reality. Move inwards...to your constant, to your basic reality. And the dualities vanish and along with them pain and sufferings which we feel through our senses also fly off into the cosmos.

***

Someone may not be as bad as he appears, provided we are as good as we consider ourselves to be.

***

Victory gives you a trophy, failure gives you a chance to fight for something bigger.

***

The smaller the virtual world in your brain, the bigger the standing in the real world.
