How important are brithdays anyways?

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 3 Sep 16

Why do we celebrate birthdays? Sometimes it feels like all that has happened is that I have moved one - year closer to death and not really done much with this life. Is the celebration because I survived so far? Battled the odds...

Away

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 3 Sep 16

Once in a while I get bitten by this bug. Then I need to turn off the world and retreat somewhere. No social media, no internet, no television, no news. I wish I could switch off the phone too but that is rarely possible. A...

Mooncats

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 17 Aug 16

It's a full-moon tonight. The cats are telling me that they want to turn into werewolves at the stroke of midnight. This basically means that they will chase each other at break-neck speed all around the house and upset the...

Moonlight and a Fox

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 16 Aug 16

It's a full moon night tomorrow. These days the moon has been shining with an extra dose of brightness right into my living room. Sometimes at nights it feels very pleasant to just sit and soak in the moon-light. Wonder what is so...

The weekend has to end

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 14 Aug 16

It's a holiday here today. And it's Monday. Social media is flooded with dont-like-monday posts. But I am wondering. If all Mondays were holidays and the agony of a Monday morning was wiped away, would Tuesday be our next victim?...

Sunrises and the many hues of the sky

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 13 Aug 16

Sometimes when I look at a sunrise or a sunset I am amazed by the multitude of colors that are out there. So many shades of blue, purple, magenta, orange, red. Wow! How can the sky take on so many of these colors? I wonder. I...

A sad saturday

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 12 Aug 16

It's one of the biggest celebration of the year today for a practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism. I was hoping to spend the weekend at a nearby monastery to which I am very closely attached. Unfortunately I was late with the...

Soul Journey

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 11 Aug 16

Am gonna be gone on a little journey to a land of old friends Where the black Panther and the gentle Deer walk side by side, Where the wise white Owl keeps the key to the dark, And the lone Eagle flies in slow circles around the...

Just another coffee shop

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 10 Aug 16

A friend was in town yesterday and said "Show me your favorite place.". And all I could think of was this small little coffee shop tucked away in a small corner. There were gardens and pubs and museums and multiplexes and traffic...

Heavy Metal or Mozart?

Naryas @Naryas (160) • India 9 Aug 16

Once upon a time many years back I used to be fond of heavy metal. The music matched my dark moods of those days. All it took was to put on an Iron Maiden or a Metallica or Dream Theater and I could instantly shut off the outside...
