Psychedelic He(Art): Illusion
http://psyche-art.blogspot.com/2007/08/illusion.html
Friday, August 31, 2007. Here I am, sitting in the shadows. of my own dreams. I am trying to hide in here, hiding from the world, from people, from myself. And thus, from the shadows, I am trying to observe the world around me, and see if it means anything to me, if I mean anything to it. And yet again, a doubt creeps in, is it the world thats an illusion? Or, is it me? Is it that the world doesn't notice me? Or, is it that I am oblivious to it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Epiphanic Interlude: December 2010
http://epiphanicinterlude.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
In an imperfect world, it all makes sense. Friday, December 31, 2010. B We (the so called 'youth) like to criticise soaps for their drama and unrealistic story lines. We (or maybe just I) are put off by the sobbing wives/daughters-in-law, the feuding families, the inter-familial rivalry, the break-ups, the getting back together, the re-births and the makeovers and post cosmetic surgery formations etc. But, the same fare dished up by reality shows is lapped up? With our advanced sense of voyeurism. Such c...

Psychedelic He(Art): At the heart of the tornado...
http://psyche-art.blogspot.com/2008/09/at-heart-of-tornado.html
Tuesday, September 16, 2008. At the heart of the tornado. Years of struggling within has come to a standstill, questions stirring the turmoil have for the moment faded away, the shrilling noise has dissolved away into a distant silence, that envelopes the vast emptiness beneath the dark brooding clouds, the tornado has finally stopped. With a shriek that echoed through ages, the tornado explodes into a deluge of bright colors. Speckles of dreams drift through pillars of light breaking through the clo...

This blog suffers from an identity crisis: Thoughts on a train
http://arjunsanyal.blogspot.com/2009/09/thoughts-on-train_11.html
This blog suffers from an identity crisis. Friday, September 11, 2009. Thoughts on a train. Why does the train always speed up when they are serving tea? Never been able to decide whether I should wait for soup to arrive before I smother the breadsticks with butter and gobble them up. What's up with the veggie soup? What happened to good ol' tomato? Why have they stopped serving. Has Mamati-di got something to do with the removal of anything that could be remotely linked to a Lalu legacy?

This blog suffers from an identity crisis. Monday, September 28, 2009. Happy Durga Puja - Finishing four years' quota in one. 2005 and 06 were in Ahmedabad. Was enthusiastic enough to go pandal. Hopping one year, and see only three (could have been four, am not sure), and also participated in getting a Puja organized on our campus for the first time. 2007 was a damp squib. I was in Malaysia. Bombay ('08) turned out to be better. Managed to visit 5 different pandals. Dance with the Dhaakis. The Kashmere G...

This blog suffers from an identity crisis. Saturday, October 04, 2008. Why do sweets taste better during festivals? The festive season in most countries is Christmas or Easter; in some, it is Ramzan; in India, something is on all the year around. But for a Bengali, there is nothing to beat Durga Puja. And somehow, the same street food tastes so much better in these 4-5 days. What I tried out recently is the Md.Ali Road area (Menara Masjid) during Ramzan - it was awesome! The second time we went there, th...

An afterthought: February 2009
http://akshay-kokala.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 28, 2009. Aa su che bhai? The Congress party has already set aside a budget of Rs 150 crore for the coming general elections, in addition to its ongoing campaign in Delhi worth Rs 40 crore. Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) is expected to shell out an equal sum to give Congress a tough electoral fight. Political parties are expected to spend over Rs 300 crore by March-April 2009. "- Indian Express. I wondered what brought this sudden bout. Obama spent 60 odd mil on his campaign, but they were...

An afterthought: September 2013
http://akshay-kokala.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 29, 2013. It’s been almost 2 months since I moved back home, oddly enough I haven’t been able to get myself to call it home, haven’t been able to reconcile with the glass and concrete monstrosities that have sprung up all around. It feels nothing like the Hyderabad that I grew up in and know so well. It has only been compounded by my uncertain work schedule(I’ve spent more time out on the highways than I have spent on the city roads), the heavy rainfall and general lethargy has me...

Wednesday, March 10, 2010. Small talk.BIG MEANING. This is a transcript of a chat conversation between a friend and me. Why did I put it up here, you ask? Cos this seemingly meaningless conversation seems to have covered some interesting issues in a funny way. PS I haven't bothered with editing or spell checking, but I guess you'd be able to make sense of the words. Heights of attention seeking. U r status msg.dont pretend. And it kinda rhymes. N sigh n say.rhyming u say. Dont pull the age card on me.
