Making sense of the world

Undoubtedly, there is a simple, straightforward and logically apealling philosophy underlieing this excessively complex, deceptive and confusing world.

If Advaita or the Buddhist theory of voidity is inadequate to explain it completely, it is not that the 'simple, general' solution to this complex problem doesnt exist, it is just that we have to work harder to find the solution... we are close.

hey varun
its meera, sumeet's friend. i read your blog and something came to my mind from past experience i found that although sometimes we seem so close YET we are so far...we may seek and look for simple logical explanations of life but every statement every reason has another hidden meaning...and although we may feel that there is a logical explanation to life the more we look into the logical explantion itself...the more we go deeper into the explanation...thus we find that it wasnt as simple as we thought! and yes this maybe an achievement and we may think we have figured out the puzzle...but we have not, and we probably will never until "our time" comes...we are so close yes...but we are still so far. thats all! lol hope u understand what im trying to say, ive started my own blog too and you can check it out and leave me some comments! thanks!

or, maybe, we have to try joining the innumerable threads that exist under different names, and superficially different textures, all thruout the reach of life.

Dear Meera,

You didnt leave the address of your blog and though being an engineer, I am not tech-savvy, so couldnt visit it.

Well, I totally understand what you are saying :) Well, in the the language of Subhas Bose, there is no development if there is no change in thought... It is stagnation, we keep learning and shall keep learning throughout our lives. And it is only through actual experiment (read action) and experience, could we confirm the truth... Intellectualism just helps till a point
