TIME AND NOTHINGNESS: Re-visiting the Philosopher’s Prime Question...

In man’s ultimate quest for wisdom, a constant puzzle which has remained unsolved has been ‘the origin of the world’, or rather put in a narrower sense, ‘the beginning of humanity’. For knowledge sake therefore, many high profile and backyard debates, these in an equally infinite proportions, have come and gone. The question of ‘Origin’, instead of answering one question, has surprisingly led to too many which as of now have proved too much for even the modern man. One of those questions is the age-long philosopher’s mind-aching problem: Why is there Something instead of Nothing? The greatest and the most enlightened minds in history have attempted this question, and as well come up, not with the answer(s), but with more puzzles which may or may not lead to the answer. In all these, the entity called Time takes it all; Time has remained constant and its essence unaffected and unchanged. The bodies of the first proponents of this question (which I will refer here as the Fundamental...

The Chosen: Christ alive in our time

Date: Jun 21, 2021 It's nothing like the convention we've come to know... The idea is not about history. It's just about edification. It has everything to do with conversion, and little to do with indoctrination, yet, it goes nowhere against the doctrine - not the basic, not the fringes. It's about the Word - the Word diffusing Himself in the modern times, and peoples and language.

It's not strictly based on the accounts, as we've come to know them; but there have been fill-ins, to fill the cracks and to then smoothen the surface; thanks to the aids of imagination which in turn is a tool made by the Manus Divinae. It cannot be seen a...

My Country's Mood Today

In the chronicles of recent times, Of a day called today; The scribes wrote about the dawn, Forgetting the terrors of the night before. "The dawn", they say "gave hope "Of some exciting things new" But more treasures lay ahead, With the advent of a bright sunny day. As this dawn grew into the golden morn, The tales of the scribes would take a twist. For the silvery clouds would hide the rays And one could wish they never came to stay. And we wish we stayed in the dawn Which was never meant to be forever Since each of dawn, morn, day and Eve Always passes to come no more 'Yet', on goes the scribe's dreary tales, "With hours gone, clouds darker came "And then came the downpour unrelenting "As if to quench a never dying flame all-consuming Now with Twilight almost upon us, And our hopeful gazes never piercing through, "The beautiful golden sun makes it back "To her chambers for a night's rest, u...
