What is love?

Love, when found, is desire. A desire which forms a bond. A bond, which transits to love. Love, that is based on trust. And trust, which is greater than worship.

Your trust breaks once, and you find it hard to trust them again. Before we love, we should learn to trust, be honest and be transparent. Don't say stuff you don't mean, even with a good intention, it will lead to nothing but doubt in the long run.

We search for stability in a person, in life. Love is nothing if we don't find stability with him/her. A fluctuating heart repels you. 

Attraction is temporary, stability is permanent. Immaturity in talks and actions gives a clear sign that he/she is not yet ready to commit.

Love is sacrifice. A woman sacrifices a lot in an attempt to bring happiness in a man's life. No man can sacrifice his home to live in some other. The least a man can do is to let go of small things which hurts or causes disturbance. It might be bringing some amount of joy to them but what good is that happiness if it brings tears to the other. A woman will be hesitant to move ahead with him if she learns that in the long run, she will be the only one making compromises. Let go of your arrogance. Stop being stubborn. Value efforts and pure feelings over temporary attachments.

Love is unconditional. It doesn't come with terms and conditions. It doesn't come with a validity. These 4 letters can mean the world to someone. Don't use it unless you are sure. And if you're not sure, be sure that you don't love him/her. If you do, you would know.

Love is letting go of your ego. Let go of your arrogance or even self-respect in front of them and they will make sure that they value your respect more than theirs. .

Love is a two-way process. Nobody likes it when they are the only ones proclaiming feelings or giving efforts.

Love is not a theatre and you are not the spectator.

Love is not about options. Stop searching for options to find the perfect one. Perfection is not found, but made.

    I am a regular reader of your poems on IG. Hope you will recognize me. You seem to have understood love very well, much unlike the rest of us. I am pretty sure this is based on personal experiences and I would like to say just one thing- he is/was/could have been extremely extremely lucky to have one of the purest soul on Earth. God bless

      I am yet to make an identity for myself and am a small person. As such, such words means a lot to me. I hope I can justify this love and support in the long run. Moreover I have got shades of black and gray, so no-one is lucky (apart from me). Thank you so much. Keep the blessings pouring 🙏

Science beyond Medical & Engineering

Man is condemned to be free. Condemned because he did not create himself, yet is nevertheless at liberty, and from the moment he is thrown into this world he is responsible for everything he does - Jean Paul Sartre A 16-17 year old child declares he is interested in Science and wants to pursue the same. A million dollar question is hurled on him- "Medical or engineering?" An epoch-old tradition- he is even accustomed to it now. He knows he might even be forced to choose one of the two "only" options. Why? Why do most people think a term as broad as Science is confined only to medical and engineering? Why is the education system in India becoming more and more of a routine and a formality? A child is not even born and parents dream of making him or her an engineer or a doctor. Is our horizon that narrow? Or are we merely ignoring the plethora of opportunities that exist.  There are irrefutable advantages in medical and engineering, no doubt, b...

Keeping calm

"Chanchalam hi manah krishna pramathi balavad drisham tasyaham nigraham manye vayor ina sudushkaram" "The mind is very restless and turbulent, O Krishna. It is more difficult to control than the wind" Have you ever found yourself in a deep thought? How long does a single thought last before being interrupted by the ping of your cell phone or before your mind wanders off to a new direction, a new thought? Studies say our minds get distracted every three minutes. We find ourselves imagining situations, imagining the future or a different past. We find ourselves constantly fretting over little things.  Our minds makes up stories and a million "what ifs", mostly based on a past experience or an observation. We then decide our course of action or reaction. We claim to foresee our future recurling the past. Yes, the past may influence the future but it doesn't control it. Why are our thoughts constantly fiddling over the past and future, neglecti...

Love v/s Attachment

-

Have you ever seen "conjoined twins", if not in real, at least in pictures? They are joined/ attached to each other. When one sits, the other has to sit. When one stands, the other has to stand. Basically their lives literally revolves around each other. Medical science has made it possible to surgically separate them. Don't you think they are much more comfortable now? One can sit or stand irrespective of the other. This was a very basic idea which shows how attachment can be very baleful. People often confuse attachment with love. What many of us fail to understand is that- they are completely opposite. Attachment is a very strong emotional bond that you have with someone or something. Love is a direct feeling. Humans get easily attached- be it with people or cars or animals- it can be anything. Humans are self-centred. When you are attached to someone, you don't love them. You love how they make you feel. You love how they feed your needs, your attenti...
