The Tangled Territory

Yes, The Rules... I was a prisoner and i guess i still am, prisoner to the notion of sanctity when i was guided by the distress caused by others, customs which failed to arouse the light, thoughts that gave my mind a sweet freedom to be acknowledged by the ones who in my realm weren’t there, but outside they were. Was i supposed to be mortified, the question failed me for the answer could had been a hypocrisy, my own hypocrisy in favour of my ideals. Is this what we call religion? I’m a religious person, or rather I’m not an atheist but wasn’t religion all about being unbiased but then it was me who failed my own religion by seconding my notions that were otherwise supposed to be dissected and thrown. Had it not been for my own self wouldn’t i had done the latter but i was a hypocrite and laid on the verge of dropping myself into an ocean from which i will never.....here i will have to give a pause, because irrespective of how diplomatic you are, one always remain a slave to his instincts, no matter how mature you are, one always succumb to their naive needs, and no matter how creative you are, the worst or best in you is always yet to come. The plethora of dark waters where we take a dip no matter how milk-like our intentions are. Is it true that life’s a stage and we are the puppets but where is the King and what are the Rules???

  1. We are not exactly puppets, but actors on the stage of life, and strangely enough every actor is working as a director and script writer...

    In words of Martin Heidegger:
    1.We feel like we are thrown into this life. Our birth is not our choice.
    2. Then we have a free will and and internal belief that we have to achieve something lofty in this life.
    Above two facts create all the turmoil. Beacuse our conscience tells us we have to achieve something higher. Now if we ignore it, we try to either imitate someone else or try to become average..we step down--and continuously feel guilt
    But if we follow our heart--that is always painful...and that's the dilemma called life

  2. no rules dear....nd we r the masters of our own life..it might seem tedious sometimes or might present certain mindboggling situations...bt it also has the flip side like the coin....
    we chose to be in this place ...The Karma makes our soul to get in the journey called life where we can feel pain..nice attempt..:)

  4. Well, I almost agree with you. Even I believe that life is a stage and we are all here to play our roles. What we live is a plan written by someone else (or may be our acts driven by our own thoughts, I donno) and I call that someone else as 'God'. I think we come on earth to settle-down what we owe to others in our past life and then in next one again we appear as a new character to play our part. May be I am writing all this just because it's part of the script that God has written.
