Truly....I tell you....

Truly I tell you...

What one can truly do is.... Also....!

What One can undo.

Idiopathy....

How ever holy.....

All ideologies aid in breeding

Contempt for others and

Men and Women of spoilt and 

Corrupt nature.......

More so turning individuals in to

Morally inept and incompetent

Persons along with making of 

Known and unknown

Psychopaths and Parasites amongst us

Undermining....... 

The very existential nature of

What is called human.

Truth always originates in

Catalan cellist and conductor.

Act of an enemy...

The one that makes/forces us 

To indulge in... 

Acts of folly and turns us in to

A subject of mischief.

A tyrant in and amongst us......

Its a Mistake to think this Fault 

[tyranny] is proper only to Monarchies; 

Other Forms of Government are liable to it, 

as well as that. 

For where-ever the Power 

that is put in any hands for 

the Government of the People, and 

the Preservation of their Properties, 

is applied to other ends, and 

made use of to impoverish, 

harass, or subdue them to 

the Arbitrary and Irregular Commands of 

those that have it: 

There it presently becomes Tyranny, 

whether those that thus use it are one or many.

-- John Locke (1632-1704).

               Evolution

Life in the oceans must be sheer hell. 

A vast, merciless hell of permanent and 

immediate danger. 

So much of a hell that during evolution 

some species - including man - crawled,

where the Lessons of Darkness continue.

-- Warner Herzog.

Shrinklogy....

Unbeknownst to oneself

In one's religious bigotry or 

Pseudo progressiveness 

One turn oneself in to 

A Freudian subject.

Farce is for real.

--- Andrei rublev.

Who can tell.....?

Who could tell in world.... 

Where every one is to me and mine

Is it the prostitute or monk 

That stands on the higher ground.

Human progress / regress.......

Seeking validation through

Victimization of Self or Others is

A sad State of affairs.  

Imagi / Nation.....

All things larger than life are

Self consuming.

Incompetency is more favorably

Reflections.../Living healthy....

Even in the face of ensuing conflict

Start the day with a good intention.

A realization is to be free of the old garb.../ The art of Living......

Even revolution, which transforms 

a concrete situation of oppression by 

establishing the process of liberation, 

must confront thus phenomenon. 

Many of the oppressed..... 

who directly or indirectly 

participate in revolution intend — 

conditioned by the myths of the old order — 

to make it their private revolution. 

The shadow of their former oppressor is 

still cast over them. 

---Paulo Freire. 
Pedagogy of the Oppressed. 

Waiting for Godot...

There is no preparation or 

Training of people...... 

For absurdity.

Quote of the day.....

True generosity consists precisely 

in fighting to destroy 

the causes which nourish false charity. 

False charity constrains 

the fearful and subdued, 

the “rejects of life” to extend 

their trembling hands. 

True generosity lies in striving 

so that these hands — 

whether of individuals or entire peoples — 

need be extended less and less in supplication, 

so that more and more 

they become human hands 

which work and, working, 

transform the world.

Quote of the day...

Falsehood of the tongue leads to 

that of the heart, and in time depraves 

all its good dispositions.

If you make people think they're thinking,

Quote of the day...

The courts are not bound by mere forms, 

nor are they to be misled by mere pretenses. 

They are at liberty — 

indeed, are under a solemn duty — 

to look at the substance of things, 

whenever they enter upon the inquiry 

whether the legislature has transcended 

the limits of its authority. 

If therefore, a statute 

purporting to have been enacted 

to protect the public health, 

the public morals, or the public safety, 

has no real or substantial relation 

to those objects, or 

is a palpable invasion of rights secured by 

the fundamental law, 

it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and 

thereby give effect to the Constitution.

-- Mugler v. Kansas

The sheep....and the shepherd...

The fact that in any given condition

The people are left with no choice 

Other than to trust their rulers is

What makes.....

The irresponsibility of those 

Who choose to Rule....

An irreconcilable sin.

Extreme rendition and torture-by-proxy.....

Although he initially tried to assert his innocence, 

he eventually confessed to anything 

his tormentors wanted him to say. 

“You just give up, he said. 

“You become like an animal.”

---Maher Arar.

A Canadian engineer sent Syria.
A year later, in October, 2003, 
Arar was released without charges. … 
Imad Moustapha, the Syrian Ambassador 

in Washington, announced 

that his country had found no links between 
Arar and terrorism. Arar, it turned out, 
had been sent to Syria on orders from 

the U.S. government, under a secretive 

program known as “extraordinary rendition.” 
This program had been devised as 

a means of extraditing terrorism suspects 

from one foreign state to another for 
interrogation and prosecution. 
Critics contend that the unstated purpose of 
such renditions is to subject the suspects to 
aggressive methods of persuasion 
that are illegal in America—including torture.

The Stanford Experiment.........

In dehumanizing others..........

We can not expect to hold them

To any known standards.

         *         *        *        *         *

Dehumanization, 

although a concrete historical fact,

is not a given destiny but 

the result of an unjust order 

that engenders violence in the oppressors, 

which in turn dehumanizes the oppressed.

---Paulo Freire.

Quote of the day.....

[I]t is a truth which the experience of 

all ages has attested, that the people are

they entertain the least suspicion.

By merit....

Those of who often argue 

On behalf of merit are

Mostly the One's......... 

That seeks privilege 

In one fashion or another.

Bi polar.....

Expressions in human intelligence

are not an anomaly... 

Either as Good or Bad...

Like good cop ...bad cop.

Quote of the day....

It is an ancient truth......

that freedom cannot be legislated 

into existence,

so it is no less obvious.... 

that freedom cannot be censored 

into existence.

And any who act as if freedom's defenses 

are found in suppression and 

suspicion and fear confess 

a doctrine that is alien to America.

-- Dwight D. Eisenhower
(1890-1969), 34th US President, WWII General

Quote of the day....

If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, 

should in terms renounce or

give up any natural right, 

the eternal law of reason and 

the grand end of society would absolutely 

vacate such renunciation. 

The right to freedom being 

the gift of Almighty God, 

it is not in the power of man

to alienate this gift and 

voluntarily become a slave.

-- Samuel Adams
(1722-1803), was known as 
the "Father of the American Revolution.

Homeostasis........

Where there is prejudice

There is neither learning

Full Quote:

We are going to emancipate ourselves from 

mental slavery because..... 

whilst others might free the body, 

none but ourselves can free the mind. 

Mind is your only ruler, sovereign. 

The man who is not able to develop and use 

his mind is bound to be the slave of 

the other man who uses his mind….

Lyrics:

Old pirates, yes, they rob I;

Sold I to the merchant ships,

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit.

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the Almighty.

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly.

Won’t you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

‘Cause all I ever have:

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs.


Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our minds.

Have no fear for atomic energy,

‘Cause none of them can stop the time.

How long shall they kill our prophets,

While we stand aside and look? Ooh!

Some say it’s just a part of it:

We’ve got to fulfill the Book.


Won’t you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

‘Cause all I ever have:

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs.


Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our mind.

Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy,

‘Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time.

How long shall they kill our prophets,

While we stand aside and look?

Yes, some say it’s just a part of it:

We’ve got to fulfill the book.

Won’t you have to sing

These songs of freedom? –

‘Cause all I ever had:

Redemption songs –

All I ever had:

Redemption songs:

These songs of freedom,

Songs of freedom.

Quote of the day........

There never did, there never will, and

there never can exist a parliament, or

possessed of the right or the power of 

binding and controlling posterity 

to the `end of time,’ or of commanding

Sanskritization.....

Sanskritization is an assemblage and

Codification of the existing.....

Pursuit of ambiguity leads to... 

Skewed judgement.

Quote of the day....

If language is not correct,

then what is said is not what is meant;

If what is said is not what is meant,

then what must be done remains undone;

If this remains undone,

morals and art will deteriorate;

If justice goes astray,

the people will stand about in 

helpless confusion.

Hence there must be 

no arbitrariness in what is said.

This matters above everything.

-- Confucius
[Kung Fu-tse] (551-479 B.C.)

Manufacturing Consent.......

There are no true consistencies...

In memory of Stephen Hawking.....

Remember to look up at the stars and

about what makes the universe exist. 

Be curious. 

And however difficult life may seem, 

there is always something you can do, 

and succeed at. 

It matters that you don’t just give up.

Quote of the day.....

A fact which is not denied but

loses its objective base. 

Quote of the day.....

I see that there are many young people here; 

as an old man, a little advice... 

Life can set us a lot of snares, a lot of bumps, 

we can fail a thousand times, in life, in love, 

in the social struggle, but if we search for it 

we'll have the strength to get up again and start over. 

The most beautiful thing about the day is that it dawns. 

There is always a dawn after the night has passed. 

Don't forget it, kids. 

The only losers are the ones who stop fighting.

Quote of the day.....

It is maintained that a society is free only 

when dissenting minorities have room to

what it abominates most is the dissent of the majority.

Quote of the day.....

The question is not, Can they reason? nor

Can they talk? but,

Can they suffer?

-- Jermy Bentham.

What matters........

What matters is....

 to find right kind of relationship 

with one another... 

Actually not theoretically and

if that relationship is corrupt, 

dishonest and exploiting 

then in  that relationship there is corruption.... 

Therefore in the world ....

corruption comes in to being.

while we live in conflict 

from the moment..... 

we are born till we die.

---J.Krishnamurthy.

How are we doing.....?

How are you doing ? 

Is probably a question....

Most of us never ask of a dog or pig or 

a bird or any animal species

One comes across in one's life...

But if one had asked the same of 

A fellow human being..... 

Then one is most probably doing it so 

Out of a superficial routine.

Quote of the day.....

Good comes in the form of confession.

-- Dostoevsky.
As quoted by Robert Bresson.

The desire to rule over others.......

Off all the human emotions

The desire to rule over others.

Quote of the day.....

You are not only responsible for what you say, 

but also for what you do not say.

 — Martin Luther.

Quote of the day.....

Especially in false moralistic societies,

 where religious bigotry is on the helm,

which is world over,

the moral sanctimony is so cruel,

it instead breeds evil,

which says who is next than humanity or compassion

which is embedded in forgiving and

while there are no apparent sanctions 

for one's short coming,

a person will have room to muster enough courage and 

call up on humility ,

which in turn paves a path for virtue to admitting to 

ones folly and short coming ,

since there is no judgement and consequently

one does not have fear about being shamed or 

face abuse from others

but a possibility to become a better human 

on one's own accord.

When a society in its wisdom fails...

individual turn away inwardly fearing

their own inadequacies known to the world 

that would invite abuse and judgement.

So people by and large wear masks of false niceties,

while fearing for their lives ,

conspiring against their own kind,

with out any real faith what so ever,

with a religious affiliation or with out.
