Time never runs out!
Stuck in the “NOW”, without a clue about the “ABSOLUTE FUTURE” till time makes it our “ABSOLUTE PAST”, man is clueless about the “ABSOLUTE ELSEWHERE”, since not even light can reach it from out there till somewhere in the future!
It will take a load of deep contemplation, to decipher the truths that lay behind this natural law.
For instance man thinks he is bound by free will, whereas reality is it can be proved that he can never get to where we wants to go!
This drift, pessimistic as it may sound, was inspired by the space-time continuum theory I was looking into recently. Very specifically it points to the “ABSOLUTE ELSEWHERE”. Here goes from Zeno’s paradoxes....
“Suppose, I were to dis-prove that if I drop a ball, it will hit the ground; first for the ball to reach the ground it will have to fall half the distance, then half of the remaining distance and so on for infinite number of times. Infinite times in finite time is impossible. We are therefore frozen in time."

Reflections 2011
It’s that time of the year again. This is when i reflect on the year gone by and see where I stand comparing the same time last year. Better or worse? Either way if fine by me, however more important is whether how I am today is a result of conditioning, intuition or merely a delusion. I will explain. We have often heard the below:
“I think, therefore I am.”
“You are what you eat.”
“Fitness First.”
“How does it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and yet suffer the loss of his own soul?”
Each one of these age old adages put one form of existentialism ahead of the other. In clear terms, they are mutually exclusive and don’t consider the individual as a whole! There are numerous divisions within as well. For instance ‘fitness’. It’s not gotta do with just weight loss. It’s about strength, speed and flexibility to convert strength with speed to power. Weight loss , therefore just becomes a by-product.
What I’ve come to understand, is that we humans have heavy conditioning! Vast influences in childhood, school, teenage and even at workplace, we learn newer ways and ‘visions’ of the world around us which we decide to conform to.
Now getting back those adages. Though they all stand tall in their individual claims, no single can govern our entirety. A mix and match and play is the key. We stop youthfulness and start growing old only when we stop learning; when we stop exploring; continue to live in the past.
The best answer I looked for as this year’s fruit is freedom. Freedom from conditioning, a spike in intuition and a consciousness, that exists in the moment. These are few questions I ask myself today:
Am I still a prisoner to my past, my habits?
Does behaviour still govern today?
Have I risen above conditioning?
Have I managed to avoid the delusions of the present, through spontaneity and intuition?
Have I been intimate in my words, thoughts, actions and interactions?
Or am I just another average in this 7 billion; born to wither and die, killing time!
