“Education, is the manifestation of the perfection that is already in man.”- Swami Vivekananda.
Oh come on, that is not going to work with any of the teachers, starting from the elementary school ones to your PhD thesis guide. so what is he saying, I already know how to solve the Hydrogen atom problem, but I still need to go through the torture that is college to know I know it already?
What?
It’s not going to work anymore. It is very cruel, to instill this..this contorted idea into my little brain that I already know all this crap, am just, being blissfully ignorant to enjoy the whole process of unraveling the mystery behind it, bask in the pure essence of discovery and maybe indulge in some running-through-the-street-nudity.
Exams are all the pressure I need to cook up a post. See, I don’t need a point for my post. I don’t have an incentive to come up with this post which makes any sense. Also if I truly believed that, i wouldn’t be adding this paragraph which is suspiciously looking like a disclaimer.
I hate exams. It is like what my friend once told me, that it is like almost as if I don’t deserve it, asking me to work for it. (What, Calvin IS my friend!) One might think, and I will definitely like to think so myself, that am studying. am working my you know, off on equations and mathematical theorems and this post is the work of an artist, a physicist who has set very high standards for herself and is unsatisfied because she can’t meet her own expectations, while in real she is, infact, doing a great job.
Oh. books and feel good movies and the nerd in your class has ruined your imagination, if you think the above paragraph is true.
Okay. So, this is something all bloggers had been doing from time immemorial. venting out their frustration. Heck, I have done it before, yes, on one of my blogs at least. It is a ritual. It is something you have got to do. This is exactly why I never ridicule any of those religious get togethers and self help books reading, and followers of Man-Gods or eat all you can buffet lovers. We all have a system, a mechanism, to make ourselves calm down, be happy, and you know, feel good about yourselves. For me it is my blog.
I have to tell you this one point which came up rather suddenly, I think I m an atheist now. No. Altruist. damn, I meant Agnostic. I keep confusing those words, but i think am being Altruistic by being an agnostic.
Sad state of affairs as I loved being a believer.
Ok. My coffee is cold. *
*check tag.
Okay, I WAS supposed to be taking a nap but lets say I dont usually like doing what I am supposed to do.
Because reading this post reminded me of the black holes thingy, my first footsteps into this place..
Things kinda came full circle. On this blog I mean
Altruistic you say? (finishes looking it up) But I didn’t know it had stuff to do with religion.. Hmm of late the old lemon has been wondering a bit about other methods of spirituality – including severe metal obeisance, spirits, PGW, etc. But then you gotta do what you gotta do what you do what you gotta do. Thanks Joey.
Lack of coherence rules this comment. Strange. I wonder what happens to all this stochasticity (hey that’s not a word?) we generate once it goes to bits. Zeroes and Ones I mean. That would be random and utterly stochastic in itself. Its a wonder. Pure miracle to the wonderer, even if he is a computer engineer. The way coherence in human thought is processed deterministically into a seemingly stochastic mess, stored as a somewhat orderly, somewhat random, chunk of charge in solid state memory (or magnetic spots in server storage racks(not the human kind)), and this mess is rebuilt back in another mindboggling but truly deterministic process to recreate what our brain had just churned out moments ago. Truly beautiful. Science is religion, maybe. But to say technology (a product of human skill) is religion edges on narcissism. We might as well worship architecture. (Let’s not get started on that).
So. There
Pointless, like all things these days are. Lofya.
you can cook up all that while you are waiting for your coffee to cool? impressive! and yes,the quote up front is irksome no? if all this was already inside people,then why bother going to school,college etc?why bother shelling out all that moolah for application forms? you just uncovered the biggest scam in the history of humanity, darling. i suggest you scamper underground and stay there,you aint safe no more;)
A. There is no such thing as ‘Too Much Coffee’.
B. I don’t know what this fever thing is but sounds extremely terrible and always in strong pursuit of you.
C. I have gone completely cuckoo and my brain froze over as soon as stumbled across the PhD word. Future does look very dire and filled with despair.
D. I’d like to bullet all my points till the alphabet ends but I’m too distracted by the coffee I’m having. But, wahey! A post. I am happy.
