Eve

He, the blemish to my reasoning, is reluctant to leave me.

Like a cut that doesn’t stop bleeding, he never gets elapsed.

Not to blame him, i let him zip that deal, long back, with wine.

And thereafter he called me vino de Jerez*.

He, the keeper of chateaus, was stunning like the roses of Lebanon and smelled of dry figs.

He knew the right time when vines budded and pomegranates bloomed.

He never saw a mirror or kissed a woman.

He was without shadows. His veins were purple.

Alone in the Hykala*, facing the west, I mastered the premise of evolution, from him.

He let me fall in love, then, out of it too.

The totem of my kind---

The star over my providence---

He refuses to leave me, alone.

Steve Jobs[1955-2011]

"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

The space inside

"There is a place in the heart that
will never be filled
a space
and even during the
best moments
and greatest
times

we will know it
we will know it
more than
ever

there is a place in the heart that
will never be filled
and
we will wait
and wait

in that space."

Heretic!

"I am certain the younger generation will get fed up of the fundamentalist,
conservative mood in the country and change things.
I didn’t want to leave my home. At the same time, it’s not even as if I want the conservative element to be pushed out of society.
We are all part of a large family and when a child breaks something at home, you don’t throw him out, you try and explain things to him.
Those opposed to my art just do not understand it. Or have never seen it.

I do not love art less, I love humanity more. India is a completely unique country. Liberal. Diverse.
There is nothing like it in the world. This mood in the country is just a historical process.
For me, India means a celebration of life. You cannot find that same quality anywhere in the world."
