The flame of discontent

July 12, 2020August 1, 2020 ~ Priya Chinnasamy ~ Leave a comment

This phrase i heard first thru J.Krishnamurti's speech/writing. While this is intense topic in itself, I tried relating it to my personal experience. I am yet to fully realize the subject, but the flame is there. This discontent is not the discontent that arises out of envy or a want to get better things. But … Continue reading The flame of discontent

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,For they have their own thoughts.You may house their … Continue reading On Children

In Search of living close to Nature

June 6, 2020March 10, 2021 ~ Priya Chinnasamy ~ Leave a comment

Being a gardener and coming from agricultural family, there is always interest towards food and its source. This helps me understand the pain of cultivating it with minimal or no profit using conventional agricultural practices. Agriculture was(is) not seen as a profession due to the lack of comfort/money and we move to cities to live … Continue reading In Search of living close to Nature

Education

June 6, 2020March 10, 2021 ~ Priya Chinnasamy ~ Leave a comment

Education was mode of achieving good life (mostly materialistic), exposure to world, financial independence and a comfortable life. This was my thought process till an year back, till I get introduced to KFI. KFI introduced me to J. Krishnamurti, his books and his schools. While K's philosophy applies for whole of life, his work in … Continue reading Education

How true!

Realised how true this is "This is still the model of the economy of the 1%. The tools of extraction, and the colonies might change but the patterns of colonization remain unchanged – grab and steal what belongs to others, make it your own property, collect rents from the original owners, transform the displaced  into … Continue reading How true!

#Hampi #sunrise Nature’s contrast mesmerises than done by gadget settings… We get in to this world as a naive child. Start to learn very slowly, start to see through our parents eyes. Start learning from our immediate family, neighbors. As we get in to school, our learning medium expands through teachers, friends, books and different instances we have in our life. While History, Geography, Evolution are part of our subjects at the early years itself, we study it independently as subjects. Darwin, French revolution, Nile river are not new to us. These subjects are interwoven together to gives us glimpse of the world we are in. Most often, that essence is missed out. Education system can be blamed at. But we are who we are now with so much of information, unsure which one aids us with what. And what is for what? Have to have time to waste to admire the beauty around us! #mudhaliyarkuppam #pelican What can cheer you up when you have to stay inside home!!! Recent visit to herb garden, re-emphasised the need to use traditional cure where ever possible and address the root of the problem. Than addressing the symptoms. Treat body/mind in wholistic way ! No short cuts! Limit is set by mind, there is always path forward!!! The Sound of Music 🎶
