Is it only in dreams that we are able to perceive reality as fluid, multi-dimensional, evanescent and flexible? Do we “wake down” to our mundane reality and then transcend to dream once more, and then step into the blank nothingness/everywhereness of samadhi, where all simply “is”? Who, then, dreams — and who transcends — and who observes all this?

Jai gurudev Bhaiya..
I have been reading your blog almost ever since you started writing it. Its been years since we met or spoke to each other. But reading your posts are always like having my big bro very close to me-talking to me, guiding me or just singing with that b’ful smile of his…like good ol times.
Hope u remember this “cry baby” (as u used to called me:-)) )
Love
Poornima

Some unanswered questions are also soo amazing !!!
Hey extremly great corelation between the photos and the post. Did u click the photos first and then the thought occur ? or did the thought occur first and then u clicked the photos !
n is the purple thing a flower ?
Vikram Hazra says
@poornima: thanks, but plz remind me, were yu on a course?
@kasturi: in this case the pics came first, but yes the operating thought was to try and capture fleeting mental or emotional states on a still camera while avoiding the cliched ways of doing so. The purple thing is one of those scrunchy rubber band thingys :)))

dear Vikram Bhaiya i heard in one of the talks that “knowledge has organizing power” Could you please elaborate on that. Does is literally mean that i will do better seva and organize bigger courses if i listen to knowledge ??.

JGD Vikram bhaiya,

The blog layout has improved a lot from its previous version.
Mitesh says
I am beginning to wonder how would the last image look like if the purple thing was replaced with Guruji’s face?
Geee …
Vikram Hazra says
@Krishna: Living the knowledge, not just listening to it — shall elaborate in the next q&a, good question!
@Mitesh: yes I love the M4/3 format. Next one will be Olympus E5! But to get Guruji’s pic there someone will hv to come n shoot my dreams! JGD

@Mitesh: ps yes I was finally able to visit Surat and spend some time with Alpesh. Not only the external look but the internal monitoring of the blog is going very well now thanks to him.
