swamp

as usual I have to start with apology. I do not know the meaning of swamp. I know Washington DC. I lived in the vicinity and several times I went there. For me it is over crowded and too big and there is parking problem. People walk there and use public transport. They are for me to use. I am from place where I do all my business using my car. I have used taxis but only rare occasions.

With two presidents Obama who came from Chicago and Trump who came from New York talked about SWAMP a million times and also promised Americans to clean the swamp in Washington DC. I took the meaning that Washington DC is a place filled marshy watery place very difficult to navigate. It is surrounding all the federal offices white_house senate house of representative and supreme courts etc. You have to spend money to make money by minutes to be listened by a fraction of ear who are inhabiting those places. But then our presidents came from cities with greater swamp who supported them. Obama was first time senator who became senator using swamp money from Chicago. Trump has used every swamp at his disposal for coming to swamp to make wind_fall earning for his family business. His family is special swamp added to the existing swamp. Obamas got 65 million to write their memoirs but they know they do not have to write it. If needed someone shall write for them.

Our next swamp cleaners predictably shall be from swamps like LA SF Seattle Philadelphia ....

Relaxation

The yoga that is known all over the world often nothing but some simple postures to be kept for 30 seconds to one minute. People claim all kinds good results from them. I do not know. I have tried some of them sometimes. Fascination drops off soon from my mind. I am not disciplined. I have no fixed time to go to bed or wake up.  However writing is part and parcel of my daily life. I often spend several hours in a day looking at me and documenting the same. I go for cycling once a day when weather is good. While I am on the wheels, I play with many ideas. I get plenty of relaxation from my writings.  I get superlative experience of living in paradise without any compulsion. I am able to pay my bills and taxes even though I am partially employed. While none in my house spend any money towards my expenses, they are not al all less demanding. My wife could at least bear huge expense towards her medical insurance medicines tests and doctors. She does not. Despite my conti...

symphony

I have written many many times about Gita. गीता। Its right to left reading. तागी। They both are Sanskrit words, however their meanings are not Harmony or Renunciation exactly. Their opposites are असुर and भोगी। Near english meanings are disharmony e.g Ravana, a character from Purana. Lusty, lust without control; everyday examples are us, US presidents - Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton.... There have been many many translations and as many volumes of expositions on Gita by that famous institution such as RKM and others. Please do not read them. Since Gita must be read as is written by Veda Vyasa and never touched. It is written with the assumption that it shall need no touch. Sanskrit is such a language. You have not learned that discipline - your writings (of expositions) are useless. It is story of God advising a life long friend about what to do when. Him telling that you have no option. You cannot QUIT. You have to accomplish what is already done for you. You are designed automaton...
