Life goes on



ગઈકાલે રાત્રે જ કવિ શ્રી રઈશ મણિયારનો એક સરસ શેર સાંભળ્યો. હજી પણ એના પડઘા હદયમાં કેટલાય વિચારો સાથે પડ્યા કરે છે. એવું સાંભળ્યું છે કે જે સાંભળીએ, જે વિચારીએ ત્યારે જે દ્રશ્યો સ્મૃતિપટ પર રચાય એના આધારે એની સમજણ ગુંથાયેલી હોય છે. ને બન્યું પણ એવું જ ! રઈશ મણિયારનો એ શેર ની સાથે જ Samuel Backett 'Waiting for Godot' અને Syshphus બન્ને એકસાથે સ્મૃતિપટ પર ઉપસી  આવ્યા. હા, એ બન્નેમાંથી કોઈ અજાણ્યું નહતું સાવ અંગત લગતા મિત્રો જ છે મારી માટે. એક નાની વાતથી જેમ એ બન્ને જેમ જીવનની બહુ મોટી ફિલસુફી જણાવે છે એમ જ હસતા હસતા આ કવિ બહુ મોટી વાત કરી જાય છે ને લખે છે,

"જિંદગી સમજ્યા તો જાય છે જીવ્યા વગરની,
ને લોક જીવ્યે જાય છે સમજ્યા વગરની."

#Existential crisis
#Meaninglessness
 #Existentialism
# absurdity of life
#Nothingness
#Menace

Ignorance is bliss but how far it is true ? It is not blissful moment for anybody when they know something.


Two kinds of people are living in the world. First, people those who are happy. They don't have any idea or don't want to get what is going on? Second one is that people who are constantly face suffering and pain within because 'They know what they know' & sometime, it is more painful. It is almost impossible to ignore because They know What others don't know.

Life itself a question. We all have only one answer to deal with but we ignore it - Death. We can't easily accept it because Human begins have habit of living life no matter how difficult it is! As E.G.Marshal says, "No matter what atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, anything Life goes On. You can kill yourself, but you can't kill life."



As Estragone & Vladimir are  representative of Mankind and go on living until the death without doing any significant work. The same way we all are living because we don't have any choice and go on living without understanding of our importance and #existence. We never ask questions to self, Why we are here ? What we are doing ? Why we have to do such things ?  From where we come ? Where to go ? Etc..& Though these all are un answerable questions we are living without any. consideration because when we think about it we feel #agony, #uncertainty, #restlessness and ultimately suffering so we ignore such things and keep on living as we are happy or rather we pretend that we understand or happy but reality is that those who understand s/he becomes #Silent. What else s/he can do? Nothing to be done.

 #Vladimir feels menace in mind because he understands the meaning of #Waiting where as #Estragone plays as he don't understand the meaning what exctly they are doing. Both are doing same thing #Waiting at the same place as their destination is same  though their state of mind is different only because of the level of understanding or maturity.

As Vladimir understands, he can't sleep and constantly suffers and does #Waiting.The same way those who understand the meaning of life, they alreday are in their state of mind so  they can't be happy as poet says, 'જિંદગી સમજ્યા તો જાય છે જીવ્યા વગરની' and as Estragone sleep without any consideration and take rest as poet says, 'ને લોક જીવ્યે જાય છે સમજ્યા વગરની'. 

What make difference between those who understand the meaning of life and those who don't understand the meaning of life ? #Nothing because Nothing becomes something. Vladimir is more happier than Estragone because with that pain and suffering he has something to be  satisfied as Estragone has nothing. That pain also provide painful pleasure to live life and new sight to see the world. Those who understand and live a painful life that is also one great life to live which evrybody can't live. Those who understand should be showed pity and mercy on others those who don't understand because they don't know what they don't know. Live life with understanding & responsibility. We all are living as we want to live either as #Vladimir or #Estragone as "Living has no solution except keeping on living". To live life with understanding Nothingness gives Something to us which others can't understand.

માધવ ક્યાંય નથી !

માધવ ક્યાંય નથી .......                                  -    હરિન્દ્ર દવે          ‘Madhav  Kyay nathi’  is written by very renowned writer Harindra Dave. The title of the novel – itself suggest something. I think there are two aspect of the title. First , he is not at any particular place means that he is omniscient . And second meaning is that he is no where!               The plot of the novel also deals with this idea and gradually reveals the whole events of Krishna’s life.
