What dreams may come :)

June 7, 2011 by Vikram Hazra 13 Comments

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

    @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 ??.
