Do we have the freedom to see?

Yes Anytime, Anything, Anyone. Vision is a choice (to exercise) though.

The Eyes are the window to your soul — William Shakespeare…

Eye of a Materialist

I see Things in wakeful and dream states (of my being)

I see clothes — I see palaces — I see antiques

I see cars — wonder the purity of (their) bloodlines & lineages

A walk in the park, for me — is not amidst trees (were they there?) — thinking, judging (desiring) the power & position of a fellow walker,

What brands they patronize: an Inkling — and I see through the person (I believe so)

I see and set utility — And that, is all I see..

To be fair to my-self — I see something beyond material, at times — in dreams,

I mostly doze of seeing the boring landscape

Amsterdam, The Netherlands

A Painter’s Eye

Landscape or Life

Thing or a being,

Can I make it better? (on my canvas, of course..)

Should I make it better?

My Footprint is a must! Leaving a Legacy — Isn’t it an everlasting Lust?

I study my subject, I study my subject, I study my subject..

Multidimensional projections — Didn’t I mention?: I have visions!

And my painting — Is as good as Nature!!

Naturalist Eye

Nature draws my eye

I unwrap my gift of seeing

Mountains, Honey, Golden fig & Asian Barbets (pecking and feeding)

Fallen feathers — with, imprint of sky (or space)

Forests, Soil, Trees, Flowing rivers and Glaciers feeding them..

How fortunate (I am) — your true nature, I see..

Everything in existence — connected, fostered, cherished, removed, returned, groomed and Alive

My eyes well up — Even blurry joy does give clarity!

Cave 26, Ajanta caves, Maharashtra, India

A Doer’s Eye

Clarity is adulated

I look up at Confidence — the more the better,

I see a way

Barricading steep Mountain — I see (a)line and build a road

Wild River tamed and dammed — I see need to cross, trade and live

Soil — I observed : replicate & exploit your chivalries

Trees — wood and timber : I see Fuel and Furniture

In fire —I see my soul : intense and burning across

I despise inability

I do and I do — for at rest, I lose my stability..

Restfulness, not for me — I need to see..

Seeker — The disdain clan

See everything — Alive or otherwise : with disdain

Utter nonsense — the survival process

All vanity — the institutions of Marriage, Education and Economy

From Motherhood to Sexuality — I look down at them all

For I choose to play ball — but in absolute abandon

Not a Nihilist, but quite the opposite — For I see & grab the possibilities that comes with consciously scorning everything around

I see the possibility of attaining— And to me, that is all..

Seeker — The Miracle clan

I may not know the how & why — but I see miracles

Aren’t each one of us? —And so, I see you and me and all life around us

For all the morbid, sad, disastrous things we do to each other and to the planet — Our intelligence, kindness and giving compensates — No, Outweighs!

I see improvement everywhere : I see clearly, we are moving forwards

Not an optimist, A grounded realist — I look life in the eye

I see a Banyan, an Oak, Bees, people with integrity, Men & women supporting each other in calamity…

..seeds of miracle sown everywhere

A common place phenomenon -casual sightings all around — Miracle is, for me

Eye of Buddha(s) and Yogi(s) — Vision of Realized beings

Unchartered

I took my own time & space — to see..

I see and I perceive — Life the way it is

I see mindless, sub-human, suffering, miserable beings — I cry, but close my eyes, never!

Eye on my goal — hasten attainment for my people— I chart a way here, simplify a method there, ever & ever..

For I become aware, seeing the past — Teachings gone wrong (of enlightened clan(s) who walked this space before me)

Teachings gone wrong, possible! — Methods stay forever, Me : a mere Messenger — I see my trust deepen on my Master

I laugh at self — see my struggles, in catering the methods to masses

Finally, see them fruits of labor — some barter their stagnant philosophies for Wander-Full Journey of a full life. And that, I consider my success(of my Master’s and my clan’s)

For before I leave — I ought to see, multitude of people, eschew their own living dead (philosophies), stop enduring Life

And live their Lives..

Ignore My fallacies or advise.

Love
