chronicles of the rabid yogi- the basic needs

Tired from the hard walk under the trying sun the rabid yogi went inside a cave which was on the way
and sat , it was pretty dark but cool . He looked around but there was no one ,yet he knew that he was
never alone.

the rabid yogi as always cried there, he moaned ,he wailed , for he never understood the ways of man.

than he sat properly, washed his face with the water he had , and started writing...

man is too deep a creature for even man to understand, he says that his basic neccesities are food, shelter and clothing ,
but I will tell that its not so, look around and you will know that what the richest man craves ,is very much alike
the craving of a poor man.

"man doesnt live by bread alone".

many childrens in the world dont die of starvation but due to unloving hearts.

many desperate men after having a sumptuous meal with their friends leap from there roofs to death,
for they have everything in their life but love.

every eye on the street screams for love,
every hand holds someone thinking it may love them
every leg hurries around in search of love

but at the end, this world offers none.
but man still seeks love.


"house on the rock"

pay attention to this words 'four walls doesnt make a house but the security derived from it makes it a house'.
a house with foundation on the sand will not stand for long ,but a house with its foundation on a rock makes it
long lasting.

man craves for security, man craves for hope and stability during uncertain situations.
no matter how strong and brave a man be,he always desires safety for self and his loved ones.

man trusts on guns and money for protection
but i tell u again
at the end , this world offers none
with more money comes more worry and with more guns comes more fear.

but man still seeks safety


"the body more important than clothe"?

though man may be called a social animal, but he is also very much a individual.
everyone feels , sees , thinks differently.

no matter how poor , man will not desire to wear something that is common, for he seeks distinction.

man is a creature of extremes, though he wishes to be a part of a group so that he can reduce himself from being
a individual to a group, but on the other hand he also desires a seperate identity. thus one can see the folly of spending
hours and hours of time in front of the mirror so that one can look good ,so that one can look different.

man at heart is a individual .
he seeks meaning in his life ,
he seeks to know the purpose of his existence.

he does runs after many things believing that it will give his life a meaning
he runs after fame,
after victory,
after money,
after pleasure.


but at the end he stands empty
at the end, this world offers none

but man still seeks meaning
though clothes doesnt provide them.


man is simply not a advanced version of a monkey, He is in reality much more than what we know.

he may haved scaled great heights and fathomed mysterious depths,yet he is unable to look inside and
know himself.



"our eyes have been blinded by the glamour of this world
thus we dont see the poverty stricken plight of our soul"

thus i understand that the real basic neccesities are "love, safety and meaning".

with this the rabid yogi closed his old tattered, tear stained book and started walking again
under the trying sun....
