“Jealousy is one of the blackest emotions that humans possess: it stems out of weakness and ultimately bears the bitter fruits of wickedness, which quite often end up poisoning the innocent victims, who have never done any harm to the possessor.”

“Even he himself, a moment later, was aghast at the curse that he had just spewed: it wasn’t his words… Maybe it was Karma who had sat upon his tongue, and put her curse on the family through him. Maybe it was Karma who had used him as an instrument to do the inevitable. Maybe it was Karma! Maybe!”

Entrapped in the web of karma, pivoted to the void.”

“The ant… the foolish ant,
sitting on the edge of an enormous disc
spinning about its axis,
reckons at every instant of time,
that it’s progressing forward.
Who would hold a mirror up to it?
And convey it the truth,
Clearing out its fallacy,
Clean as a hound’s tooth.
The fallacy that it can see
the whole dimension in entirety.
Shall it ever concede,
If one tries to enlighten?
Or, inured by canard shall it fight
To win against what is right?”

“Why fear death? After all nothing in this universe of being is fairer than the end of being,
which we call by the name of death, which sees no difference in people while playing its tune to them…
We mustn’t see it as a frightening thing, but as a beautiful reality, and the only absolute truth.”

“I don't believe in these customs and rituals, as it's like manufacturing culture-fits on the graveyard of diversity. But then I haven't yet found any other alternative to this prevalent system, which doesn't have its fair share of drawbacks. So if following a custom means being courteous to someone, why not?”

“Egotism is what we humans are fraught with… We boast of our intellectual superiority, but why do we have to depend upon a dog to sniff out a thief, one from our own race? Why do we need a dog for that? Why don't we just train ourselves and do the job on our own?”

Truth is the entire spectrum;
The wholeness how can I see,
Unless the I-ness ceases to be.”

“It may drive us insane when we see the simple mathematics apparently failing in the system surrounding us: just a handful of wrongdoers oppressing the vast number of the wronged ones! But it’s not the truth, if we have a closer look at it… The unfortunate truth is that the majority of the wronged ones are shackled within their own periphery by fear, greed, egoism and many other trammels, but it’s not that they remain there all the time… They, now and again, come out of their periphery to register themselves among the wrongdoers whenever it suits them and then retreat again inside their periphery after serving their purposes. Once inside the periphery they are once again the innocent wronged ones… They can’t see the transition, as there are masks upon their faces, which restrict their vision: the masks of sanity, behind which they are allowed to commit all the insanities. And at times the mask of sanity appears so dreadful that insanity feels saner before it. The fanaticism, the terrorism, the cast-carnages! Inflicting punishment upon an insane person for his insanity! Beating him black and blue for a crime he isn’t even conscious of having committed! Just to protect honor! The honor, which doesn’t get tarnished by the heinous crimes they commit! But it gets tainted by an insane act from an insane person! What an irony!”

“He milled about his garden, lost in the thoughts of his dear Hariom's whereabouts, unmindfully crushing under his feet the fallen leaves of his darling trees. Why does it become inevitable sometimes to walk upon your shattered dreams to carry out your duty, he ruminated.”

“Tears are one of the wonders that manifest God’s greatness: they ooze out of the eyes to bear off the pain when it gets unbearable. They wash away the painful memories, and keep our hearts from drowning in the ocean of dark emotions: if not for them this world would be full of bitter obnoxious people.”

“A voice came from his inside, and shook him up by the roots; the inner voice that had been drowned long back, somewhere deep within, by the noise of opinions of others; the voice that had been constantly screaming ever since, albeit failingly, from the depth to make itself heard; the voice that was now distinctly audible in silence, suggesting him to take a new path, a path that he would have to walk upon alone.”

“How can we humans claim ourselves to be superior to other animals? Is it because of the technological development we’ve made? Destroying one resource to create another one! Egotism is what we humans are fraught with… We boast of our intellectual superiority, but why do we have to depend upon a dog to sniff out a thief, one from our own race? Why do we need a dog for that? Why don't we just train ourselves and do the job on our own? The defence we produce here is that we don't have as many olfactory receptors in our nose as there are in a dog, and a part of a dog’s brain is devoted to analyzing smells. But then why is our developed logical and intellectual ability considered superior to their developed instinctive abilities? Isn't it ironical that a race that considers itself superior to others needs another race that it looks down upon, to sniff out someone of its own race? Doesn't it seem at variance with our own asset, logic that is, that we, who haven't yet developed a reliable device to predict an earthquake, consider ourselves better than a race that has an uncanny ability to predict future catastrophe? Being at the top of the food chain isn’t everything; even the dinosaurs disappeared, and the ones which were at the bottom still exist… I truly believe in nature's impartiality.”

“Zero is the ultimate truth. It indeed is. It’s the ultimate resultant of the chaos. It’s curious how things on its own get added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided to finally give a unique result, zero that is. It’s zero inside which the universe resides chaotically.”

“Is there really a particular state, chaotic and wild, whereat the world stands stable? Is it gospel that no matter how much effort we humans may exert upon it to tame it, to drag it to another state of equilibrium where we feel superior to other animals, it’s ultimately going to hark back to the natural state of equilibrium, chaos that is?”

“It’s curious that nothing has ever been as damaging to unity than the concept of unity itself: all it has done is to create a divide in a bigger unity to form smaller unities. What an irony!”

“You are at constant battle with life… Your success is defined by how long you have had the upper hand over it. The key is to never yield when you have the lower hand. Life is after all not so fierce a warrior. So fetter the fear before it fans out its feather.”
