Student Asks :: What Is Love?

A student asks a teacher, “What is love?”
The teacher said, “in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick.”

The student went to the field, go thru first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders….may be there is a bigger one later. Then he saw another bigger one… but may be there is an even bigger one waiting for him.

Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he starts to realise that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he knew he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted. So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand. The teacher told him, “…this is love… you keep looking for better ones, but
when later you realise, you have already missed the person.

Seeing It... !!..

"If the Human Body is Obscene, Complain to the manufacturer, Not Me." ~Larry Flynt Long back while watching Discovery Channel. In a Program, I heard them say: "Our Body is Dynamic. Changes every day. Each & Every Day... ! Human Skeleton is COMPLETELY RENEWED every 10 years." *Current Research -- PMID: 8519493, PMID: 597437 [[ Pubmed IDs ]] We say that: (1) His Eyes are intense. (2) Her Smile is good. etc. IS IT FOR ALL? ...ALWAYS?? I'm trying to say that - Its All in the Eyes ! A person lying naked on the bed... can be anyone from a child to someone selling body for money. And EYES can be anything from Saintly Ignorant to Gyenocologist at Work to a Ponce to Sharp Shooter to Fighter Pilot to a Mother [[who feels - and not just See It !]] Some Child [[unable to See beyond some feet !]] to a Blind [[who still can see - WITHOUT EYES !]]... Or may be YOUR OWN EYES ! Well this Human Body as we SEE is not the same for long. Beautiful today, can be Granny tom...

Love... !!..

Perfect love is rare indeed - for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise , the flexibility of the child , the sensitivity of the artist , the understanding of the philosopher , the acceptance of the saint , the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of the certain . ~Leo Buscaglia ++ Perhaps it is good to have a BEAUTIFUL MIND, but an even greater gift is to discover a BEAUTIFUL HEART. ~Beautiful Mind (*Movie) [[ MyWords : Wordless... ! ]]

A Man of Truth, must be a Man of Care ! ~Mahatma Gandhi Voces (1943) Translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin A door opens to me. I go in and am faced with a hundred closed doors. He who holds me by a thread is not strong; the thread is strong. My great day came and went, I do not know how. Because it did not pass through dawn when it came, nor through dusk when it went. You are sad because they abandon you and you have not fallen. I would go to heaven, but I would take my hell; I would not go alone. My heaviness comes from the heights. Would there be this eternal seeking if the found existed? We become aware of the void as we fill it. Because they know the name of what I am looking for, they think they know what I am looking for ! A thing, until it is everything, is noise, and once it is everything it is silence. Before I travelled my road I was my road. When I die, I will not see myself die, for the first time. *** Antonio Porchia (November 13, 1886 - November 9, 1968) was an Italian...
