thesocratespot: Days of Bi Polarity : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter XCIX

thesocratespot: Days of Bi Polarity : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapt...: Daniel was sitting inside Annie's hospital room, all was quiet , the TV was On, but in mute mode, Annie, was awake , but Daniel was asleep on a easy chair of old make. Annie, took out all her clinical wires - her IV, her ECG, her BP cap , her Oxygen mask , her seizure alert caps everything that confined her to her hospital bed.

It was a while since walked so she walked with measured steps until she reached sleeping Daneil - close enough - as soon as she knew she was close enough, to physically touch him , she slowly , without waking him, caught hold of his shirt collar from opposite angles and just pulled them apart with such force that Daneil woke up in a start , by then Annie had already torn his short into smithreens - Daneil was delighted with the fact that Annie was out of her Coma but he was even more delighted that Annie had remembered an old game they used play . It was a game of tearing each others clothes, everytime they met after a long break , they went after each other , tore apart everything they wore until they were naked , until they were completly stripped but this time when Annie started the game Daniel wasn't prepared, it happened a bit too unrealistically - they were in a hospital and Annie was being diagnosed for a severe bi polar depression - but soon Daneil realised the importance of a response , he started tearing Annie's clothes , vigourously , and they were both laughing, he tore and she tore , Annie was already naked , she had been shaved by the nurses recently so she looked clean but pale and emaciated .

The hospital staff were confounded, initially they thought it was two lunatic chaos but soon realised the fact that Annie was reliving an old ritual, they were glad she was out of her bipolar prison so they too participated in the stripping session - soon their were at least a dozen humans tearing each others clothes, laughing, thanking and celebrating .

Annie sat in a chair, Daneil followed - they both hugged and then they kissed .          

Days of Bi Polarity : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXIX

Daniel was sitting inside the Annie's hospital room, all was quiet , the TV was On, but in mute mode, Annie, was awake , but Daniel wasn't sure if she knew her co-ordinates, she was sleeping on the hospital bed facing his side but her eyes were looking mildly animated, she was talking to herself , whispering, gesturing, constantly moving her fingers as if she was playing on an instrument, like a saxophone - Daniel nodded and smiled to himself - she was being diagnosed for a Bi-Polar disorder, 

Someone knocked , two nurses walked in, smiled at Daniel and then started their everyday routine of checking Annie's BP , temperature , ENT to record their daily report, Daniel stepped out , walked to a corner he had discovered , rolled a joint and dragged , held a deep breath and then exhaled, the day was snowing outside , they were at one of Johns Hopkins speciality wards for mentally ill , this part of the hospital was a lot more liberal and free of people , in fact it often looked almost deserted. 

As Daniel dragged on, inhaling and exhaling, watching the snow and the frostiness around, his mind kept pushing him back to days he had not thought about for a while, it was almost a fifteen years since Annie had migrated to the US, she had qualified through GRE & GMAT to join Harvard ( she could appear for both since she had engineering and literature as joint electives ) and then Daniel too migrated to New York, working for an Investment banker . 

Daniel couldn't deny the fact they both - Annie and him - were a pair , they were two people who were so comfortable with each other that at times even Annie's best of male partners became very uncomfortable with their chemistry. 

And even today, Annie after four marriages, four other relationships , four divorces and having almost seven children from each of her relationship living in different parts of the world, she still looked like she was the same woman who had just started her life's journey - she looked fresh, frail, lost but if someone were to look deeper then they would have found Annie very smart and desirable , one look at her even in this condition would tell anyone who's observing her that she wasn't your everyday person - and she was open to all possibilities. 

Daniel inhaled and exhaled his grass , saw that the stick was burning slow due to the weather and smiled as he thought of a particular incident - 

He and Annie were generally surfing on the net together at her Harvard hostel room , she was then in a relationship with a Jr. Lecturer , she was narrating a time when she went visiting this man's house, the guy only had his mother living with him, his father was dead, after the preliminary intros, the guys mother went back to her knitting and they sat down to watch some TV, Annie decided to sit on the floor saying she was comfortable that way, the guys mother was knitting just behind , as they were watching TV Annie leaned her head onto the Jr. lecturers legs just for support , before long she was giving him a job and the mother behind had no clue .

Daniel , screamed , smiled loud and then threw his marijuana stick. 

When he stepped into Annie's chamber, the nurses had left and Annie was in a trance.

Death and deliverance : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXVII

Daniel was lost in thought, it wasn't the philharmonic in the background - it was anyway sounding too thin and timid for his taste, he was back in Boston, but felt like a stranger. The music it seemed hardly able to hold.

Birth leads
unto birth
unto ?

forget it

It isn't the cyclical
wheel

Ok

you and me
have sex

and then wonder
what's it ?
what's sex ?
what's intimacy?
why ?

its either a dream run
or a
nightmare

depending

it can be so
severe    

so intense

so ...

someone wants
someone debates
someone rejects
someone denies

deliverance
unto death

life

she chooses
to stay
above
and away

I'm not

an object

pray
kneel
beg

hahaha

until deliverance

stay
admiring

the Universe

Daniel, put his pen down, walked to his Piano
pressed all his ten fingers
on 5 keys each

they made a terrible sound

and he loved it

Daniel and Annie at Nirmala Convent, Dornakal : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXVI

Daniel was probably around 7 years old, then, when his father got transferred to Dornakal, he was a skinny,  lean, dark brown identity less student. he was a part of the anonymous 90% of an institution who have nothing in particular that made them stand out.

But Daniel liked his school uniform, dark blue trouser ( a knicker ) and a white cotton short, with a blue tie, that also had a badge of his "club house' - green house, blue house, red house ... etc - Daniel reminisced sitting at his Uruguayan lodging ( browsing the Classified Section of the local Montevideo tabloid that ( Classified # 1 ) said ' Alcoholic, Unemployed, writer, poet, lookin for a companion ) .... Daniel often randomly chose a classified from the tabloid and then dated with whoever agreed to meet, that was Daniel's idea of localising his experience.

The  adjacent classified said ' lean, tall, handsome, aristocratic, bureaucrat looking for a in house boy friend - should be chain smoking and ready to screw all night'.

Daniel, loved reading these South American classifieds, they were so openly branding and celebrating their mediocrity, artlessness, failures and deviance - and when you read them in Spanish or Mexican or in Latin they sounded exotic.

Daniel : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXV

Daniel, was somewhere in North Carolina, attending to a prep for an opera he was invited to  conduct, it was on Schubert. He was the sound engineer for the Opera. The opera itself was being led by Steven Isserlis and his Cellist troupe backed by the New York Philharmonic of which Daniel was an employee.

He was just about finishing his part of the contract when he received a call from a friend of his, she was volunteering as a nurse for red cross and was posted somewhere in Sudan. They were old friends, they had met when Annie and Daniel were touring Uruguay - so she knew Annie - Annie and Daniel had stayed over at her apartment at Montevideo and later also had travelled across Alaska during one of her trips to the US.

Daniel was initially a bit curious when he got a call from Elisa, thought maybe she was visiting New York, but he was a bit uncertain coz he had just chatted up Elisa on Facebook just a few days ago and she had only mentioned about her Red Cross volunteering and about the situation in Sudan she had never mentioned anything about any impending trip to New York - by the time Daniel finished his call from Elisa he knew he was Africa bound. Elisa, happened to be posted on Sudan and during a routine posting at a make shift hospital for the mentally ill in that region she had come across Annie, being treated for a bi polar disorder bordering on Schizophrenic, she had become prone to violence, she had hurt her doctor treating her but she had no clue.

Elisa gave Daniel the coordinated to the temp Hospital in Sudan - mentioned to him that given the civil war situation and the increased Russian aggression, she was not sure if the temp base will remain where it was, but Daniel could take Elisa's coordinates for all communications.

As Daniel boarded his plane to Sudan - it was a complex itinerary to reach Annie, Daniel had fly to Khartoum and then head by any available transport to Eritrea and negotiate his way into Sudan - he couldn't help allowing his mind to journey back into the past, allowing his mind journey through the days when he was a kid and so was Annie and how they had met again after fate had split them from Shanti Niketan, in Mettiguda, Lallaguda, Secunderabad, in India.

The second time they came together was in a smaller town, Dornakal,  in a convent by name Nirmala Convent.  Both their parents happened to be stationed temporarily at Dornakal - a charming little town surrounded by mango farms, forests and rivulets, deeply imbibed in the culture of Hinduism due to its proximity to Bhadrachalam, Dornakal had many other facets but for Daniel it is in Dornakal he had met Sister Beula - a young, petite Nun who doted on Daniel - and then he had once again come across Annie in his own class room, doodling though her math work book and humming something vague.

Annie, Rage & The Upanishads : thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXIV

She was in this decrepit, ageing, crumbling house, that also served as an hospital for the psychologically unstable.

She looked older than she actually was, as of now she was resting but her countenance wasn't really very peaceful, trapped in a remote part of South Eastern Africa - somewhere on the converging borders of Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan - she was being treated by a team of doctors treating patients ravaged by war and violence.

It was a temporary medical camp under the supervision of the United Nations and managed by a team consisting of doctors from Medicins Sans Frontiers and nurses from Red Cross.

Annie's mind was in a different world far from her African hostel, she was hearing sounds of automobiles , of all sizes and hues, it was her last weekend in India and it was quite late in the night almost half past 11 in the night, she was on the outskirts of Trivandrum, Kerala, India - departing after visiting a guru who was an acknowledged scholar of Lokayata, Bruhaspatya and Charvaka chapters of the Upanishads ( these chapters outlined the materialistic and atheistic aspects of the Vedic school of thought ).

She was smoking dope, sitting on her briefcase waiting for her Volvo bus to pick her up and take her to Palakkad.

The sounds of automobiles were coming from a highway beyond, about 50 metres away, so the sounds seemed to come with a sense subdued automaticness - constant swoosh of automobile tyres interspersed with musical horn of long distance Lorries and buses carrying the people and goods by the millions across the length and breadth of a truly eclectic South Asian nation.

As Annie dragged on her smoke, she saw figures of sundry tourists, locals, and street dogs chatting, enquiring, barking or simply bored and staring at nothing. Annie was thinking about Andy ( short for Ananthakrishnan, a retired Merchant Navy Officer ) in Palakkad, who had promised to take her to a place called Ottapalam, nearby Palakkad, to a guru who was an authority on Atharvavedam ( the "Other Vedam" , the Vedam of vampires, ghosts and para normals ) - it was known to be one of those Vedic practices that was outside the Upanishads and a practice always discussed in whispers and hushed tones - Atharva Vedam worshipped a para normal feminine form as supreme, it demanded stringent commitment and indulged in a ritual and artistic practice known as Tantric Vedam.

Atharvam demanded supreme efforts and sacrifices often shrouded in mystic rituals ( rumoured to also include use of blood as a symbol of divine offering ) , the colour Vermillion Red was revered and Atharvam gurus were known for their short temper and anger which often contrasted with their artistic brilliance - since they revered the abstract ( among the first abstract artists in the world , preceded modern abstract art by at least a few 100 years, if not thousand ) and since vermillion red, saffron yellow, virgin white and green were their preferred colours, they had created a reportoire of art unparallelled in the history of vedic art.

Annie's mind was hallucinating on the mantra and tantra of Atharvam, she suddenly woke up, rested her right hand palm on the ground and with focus raised her body on a Ashtanga yoga pose she had learnt during her trip to Mysore - she was loosely chained in her chamber in Africa that she wasn't aware of , so when she raised her body ( feet up on the back side, head down but bent in a 45 degree angle looking up , body inclined in a 45 degree pose with her left hand stretched and her right hand pressed to the ground ) - suddenly the wardens around went tizzy, one of them walked in gingerly calling Annie by her name and saying get down, get down, get down ...

Annie let out a scream, a scream so fierce and sounding so wild that the African warden who had entered her chamber trying to get her down from her weird Ashtanga yoga pose that she was suddenly enacting, simply scrammed out of her sight.

Annie remained motionless - in her shirsana pose balanced on a single palm, left hand stretched, head held up at a 45 degree angle, torso curved up, legs attached like needles stretched to the sky - her breathing was calm, her eyes were motionless.

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXII : Spirituality is a fake Universe

The guru smiled

he had just finished 
his treatise on
atmodayam 
vs
parajjayam

evolution
vs
negation 

it was an elaborate
and intricate theory 
that he had developed 
over 15 years 
along with his 
guru
in the big mountains 
of Himachal 

He was glad it had the desired effect

his disciples ?

were charmed 
feeling blessed
relieved 
free and 
emancipated 

enlightened 

the guru again 
turned to look at the gathering
as ever smiling

the visual was pleasing 

some where swooning
some more were in a trance 
a few had already fainted
a group in the corner were clapping and
chanting  

the atmosphere was 
frenzied 

the energy
palpable

If the guru 
decided to step down 
and walk 
at that time

the disciples would have 
had multiple 
orgasms 

they were in that
grip
of his 
will, whim an wish 

The guru knew the rules 
better
he restrained the urge

His only worry was 
the girl Annie

She was sharper 
than the others
She could shoot 
through 
his treatise

Annie could refer
the other sophists
in the same league 

discuss, debate 

Christianity and Judaism
She could quote Spinoza
Descartes
and the 7 holy saints 
of Zaroastranism 

Aristotle, Plato
Socrates
and Aristophanes were 
on her finger tips

So were 
Hegel, Nietzsche 
and Kant

Along with the Upanishads
She was a master of the
Mandokyan Upanishad
and the 4 Vedas
Regi
Sama
Yajur
and Atharvam

She had read the Bhagavatams
Buddhist Scriptures
and the Quran

Annie had read and assimilated
Russian Mysticism
even Confusianism

Besides Freud and Jung

She was his toughest disciple 
coz she wouldn't let him go 
without a debate 
and she was attractive too 

As the assembly dissolved 
Annie switched on her music 
She had recently recorded 
Trilok Gurtu
and 
Songs from the 
Buddha Bar Collection

Annie 
switched her ipod on

and went into a zone of silence 

taking her lotus pose 
under a starlit sky
she was free
and she was naked 

meditating

She just finished 
smoking pot

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXXI : Competitive friendship

We were friends from childhood

we laughed
we cried
we faught
we admired
we
adored
we
mocked
we
taunted
we
condemned
we argued
incessantly

turkey, england, america
India, Pakistan
Red, white
Russia, China

Dalai lama
Lenin, Mao

Corruption

despotism
totalitarianism

Each wanted the other
to confirm

each
had no clue

the meaning
of

true leadership

Each developed
an individual
perception

and then they differed

and  they

stopped laughing

stopped talking


thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXX: Somnambulance

It was a play

But

played inside a dream

nobody knew

the script.

Each looked at the blank
white page

then came

the yogi

smiled

suddenly the world seemed
to acquire a halo

golden

the disciples swooned

some went wet

the yogi said

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXIIX : Future is an accident

Bang

kabang , klang

Sounds
of huge red brown railway wagons,
some open
others empty
some looking like burnt bread

black

A remote railway station

Sunny
hot

Not a soul in sight

Annie sitting
crouched and hugging her backpack

no name
of the station

Public announcement : Future is an accident

Klang
kablang

Future is dumber than you think

Klang
Kablang

Public announcement : are you dumb ?

Annie gets up, looks straight at the speaker and shouts

Future is an accident
Future is dumb

Annie : Past is surreal

Public Announcement : Past is surreal

Annie : When you reach the future , you already are in the present

Public Announcement : Future is an accident

Public Announcement : Somehow , somewhere

you signed on the eternal scroll

Klang, klang
Kablang

Visual capture

The train just met with an
accident

But there was that other train
that seemed in a hurry

It just hurtled past
past the derailed scene
of accident

Public announcement : Welcome , to the future

Annie fades out and crawls like a big giant ant

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXIVII : Theory of Trizophenia - IV

Daniel and Annie were oblivious to the spectacle around, they were dancing like two people immersed in the act, the music seemed never ending, it source remained a mystery, after the 9th Symphony came Brahms, then Strauss the music just kept flowing and despite all the nature's fury outside somehow people around seemed to have gathered just outside the hall, peering thru the frosty, misty glass - watching in awe, clapping, cheering, singing, wine seemed available in abundance and everyone was merry.

But nature seemed decisive - it was at its battering best.

But, nobody really cared.        

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXIVI: Theory of Trizophenia - III

Daniel and Annie were laughing, they were both floating on the effects of alcohol, but they had not lost control of their subject of discussion - Trizophrenia.

Daniel mused loudly

Anne, you mean to say these 3 are so evolved that they really cannot destroy each other ? that they can only hurt or damage or cause some discomfort to each other ? but they are really not in a position to annihilate either of them ?

Annie was dancing and prancing, mocking an imagined gymnast at a performance and Daniel was playing along holding her by the hip as Annie bent backwards with her right arm stretched backward and her left arm stretched in an horizontal angle, there wasn;t music around, they had assembled in a large, tall hall belonging to a friend who had arranged for a butler, food and drinks for them, it was furnished just enough for the two spend some time together. It was a splendidly decorated baroque hall, with several Gothic and Grecian aesthetic appeal.

The hall had no carpet and there was echo that said nobody lived inside that large dome. The more Annie and Daniel shouted the more asymmetric their  conversation became - due to the echo, the sound of footwear tapping while dancing and their laughs.

Annie had to pull Daniel close to her and almost whisper into his ear - listen, there's a hierarchy of power -

Life cannot destroy nature
Nature cannot destroy life
Cosmos cannot destroy nature
Nature cannot destroy Cosmos


Suddenly, Annie and Daniel were dancing to the 9th Symphony. Nobody knew where the music came from. And suddenly they could hear sounds of thunder, lightning and showers belting the scorched earth - the hall inside reverberated in psychedelic colours from yellow, burgundy to bright gold and silver, the whole hall seemed swaying and shaky.             

thesocratespot: AAUW : Chapter LXXXIIV : Theory of Trizophenia - II

Taking forward the theory , said Annie,

She was talking to Daniel.

Discussing an emerging stream of thought that she had defined as Trizophrenia.

The two were meeting after a long hiatus, both somehow drifted into their own individual realms - Daniel, went reclusive, living inside remote islands, travelling discreet and practicing the art of silence, fervent attempts by friends went futile, making him to talk or correspond or communicate became impossible and that's why Annie was excited to meet him when he called her after such a long time, she was so overwhelmingly surprised by the call.

Daniel looked pale, drained of blood and flesh - he was just bones and skin, his hair had become thin and his dents betrayed signs of being out of proteins. But he retained his laugh, his intellect was intact and despite his love of staying reclusive he hardly bothered moralising Annie when she ordered for the tow of them.

Annie ordered Vodka and Daniel preferred Bourbon. And that renewed a long lost friendship.

A few drinks and Annie and Daniel were immersed in their debate - Annie was saying

The

  1. Cosmos     
  2. Nature 
&

      3. Human life  

are mutually exclusive, any semblance of symbiosis are  all merely mathematical , each exist without the others overt dictatorship. 

Daniel smiled, a wry smile and responded with an OK, shifted his posture a bit, bent closer to Annie holding his drink in his hand and looking deep into Annie's eyes asked - 

If human's are exclusive to nature and have symbiotic connection , how do you think we breath ? why are we dependent on nature for food? Why are we imprisoned by all acts of nature ? 

Annie was ready to retort - listen Danny, micro level dependencies aren't what I'm referring to, a fish living inside water is imprisoned by water, accepted but nothing stops the fish from jumping out and die. So, the independency I'm referring to is at a macro level - let me list my questions to you :

  1. How much does the cosmos care about the Universe ?
  2. How much does Nature care about life on earth ?
  3. How much do you care about the cosmos or nature ?
In your everyday routine ? you just walk, run, talk. So does nature and so the cosmos. All 3 are so deeply immersed in their own purpose - neither really cares for the other, in fact no such thing exists, this mutual dependency - dependency is a default corollary but it isn't proof  of anything symbiotic. 

The cosmos , the nature and life on earth have evolved on their own. Neither has created the other, neither really is committed to the others survival. In terms of power equation, I feel probably Nature is more autonomous and maybe life is the weakest in terms of autonomy - but none really needs to take responsibility for the other.  

Are you saying, Daniel asked absent mindedly , that the planets and the universal zodiac just happened to align themselves due to some default energy known as gravitation ? that the cosmos is not even aware that such a thing exists ? and nature, really does not know its own elements ? part of it being oxygen that we breath ? or a fish or a bird or a worm thrives on? 

Annie looked at him with a twinkle in her eyes and said yes 


And drowned her glass of Vodka.
