Oh my Rajaa...

Now, here's a full orchestral version of "Azhagu Malar Aada"... Very hard to not get moved...





Mindblowing stuff!

Zoozoo :-)

These are one of the prettiest and cutest creations in recent times. While I don't follow cricket anymore, it was repeated email articles about Zoozoos that made me check them out. And I was so fascinated by the creativity of the entire Ad campaign. In case you didn't know, these were real people, wearing costumes and shot at an appropriate frame rate to seem as though it were animation.

And this is my most favorite among them. The male character is hyper-active in every frame. The way it rotates while moving, the hand movements, the sounds and the moon-walk in Paris are just priceless. And if you were wondering what He says, they are "Parotta", "Puttu kadalai" and "Kappa meenu"... the food delicacies that Prakash Varma, the director of the Ad, missed when filming it, as quoted in his blog.

I happened to see a few hours of "Sadhguruvin Madiyil" webcast.

Ruthlessly demolishing people's ideas and ideologies and taking all for a ride in His own merciless fashion! If there is a bit of ego left in us, we'll sure run away from the place, for the intensity He displays. With His play of logic, He can make an utter fool out of everyone of us. Spell binding!

All that remains is the title of this post....

Random things...

There are a few days, when I wake up, I have this feeling in my "Anahata"... It's a certain feeling that brings about a certain depressing emotion for the entire day... When someone is sad, I believe it is this activity in the Anahata that makes people exclaim "heavy in heart"... While I am able to see clearly that this is what is happening and when I'm aware, I'm able to go beyond that uneasiness, but during the moments of unawareness (which is in plenty), it easily sucks me up... Reminded of how Sadhguru says that everything within oneself is just a chemistry (joy, misery, etc)... today is one such day...

The last 2 days were a blast. Sai Suresh and Gokulnath had come from SFO for the Tulip Festival... The weather was just fine and it was lots of fun... tulip fields, flowers, pictures, "Taboo" games, the drives, the frisbee, the double rainbow, california pizza kitchen, cheesecakes...

An idiot of my relative has landed himself in to some serious trouble. The lack of even a bit of remorse for what he has done is such a disgrace. He and his family are one such kind of people who eat, breathe and sleep money... While I can't but pity his plight, his insolence and lack of humanity and the position they are planning to take in the coming days only speaks volumes of their inner state. I can only see more trouble coming their way. If they can't learn out of such a big incident in their lives, may be they need more life-times for any transformation to happen. BTW, this incident, it is a real drama, just like in the movies... And this incident, happening at this point in time, may not be so ideal a situation I would have wanted, but things have happened... Let's see...

Fear: I thought I didn't have any... But I can see as they surface... There was this medical test for which they had to take some blood samples. And I saw this fear surface up. Once I became aware, it dissolves in a moment... It was funny and at the same time, I could see how what they say in the IE class was practically true. There's one other fear now...

The sea is calm, beautiful and serene...
The pearls are below, radiant and inviting...
The moment is opportune, unfettered the diver,
Ohh, how to ruffle the placid waters...
