i seem to be in a temporary high(!) today..so here comes the 2nd blog of the day...
its been almost 5 years that i have been working and today i was taking a introductory session for a fresh batch of CA's who have joined the organisation..what was starkling to me was the eagerness and the passion they were displaying towards physical forms...im sure during my first few months in the organisation i also had the same feeling...over a period of time these feelings seem to have become dormant...
this fact of dormancy got me thinking ( not for the first time)..with time how things take a turn..what seemed interesting turned out to be a box of unwanted stuff..what seemed trivial turns out to be interesting and fun!..and the interesting turn out to be the source of passion as time moves on...physical forms tend to loose value with time..the intangibles start as a slow runner but then take a long lead..
this goes true with people as well..initial interactions lets you experience only the part the person is willing to share (no pun indented!)...over a period of time you actually get to know the person and that's when you actually start liking or disliking...hmmm i seem to be stoned!!

Dear Mukund,
I think that the transformation of our attention from the physical to the subtle aspects of our surroundings is neither to be mocked nor to be over rated. It is but an expression of the way that our cognitive senses function where it is essential to stimulate thougths by focusing on something concrete before moving into the abstract realms. I draw this parallel from meditation techniques where it is necessary to be aware of an object or of our breath ( even though it may be in the mind's eye ) and then move into the subconscious realms. In fact all thoughts are rooted in reality though they appear otherwise...
