Mindscapes...

Then the chaos starts another round...to fend it off, I wash the floor. Washing the floor, on my belief system, humbles me...because I only do one thing -- do a good job like no one has ever done it before...many people do not realize that washing the floor or doing only one task at a time is meditation...in a way...the longer you do it, the better one feels...

I am not a master. However I have found that by using mindfulness I can reduce my scattered thoughts. just a thought.

Yes...I agree...

You do not have much to do? Have you seen a picture of Einstein's desk side by side with an "empty suit"'s desk? The latter is clean...

Nandakumar, a clean mind...that has many implications, but to me, it is that of a job/project just finished and the desk cleared and now preparing for the next one...

Brian, didn't you mean dusk? If so, this was dawn and my bad processing converted it to messy :( If you meant desk, Izzie has answer for you ;)

Thank you Brian, thank you Izzie :)

Yes, the so called virtual world has many merits as much its negative aspects; it is like fire one can use it for many good things or you can burn everything to ash with the same. Thank you Izzie :)

Very much true Brian...as per vedantic principles the so called real world you see around is as unreal as a dream; while we see a dream, it is as real as the so calledreal world, until we wake up...and we have yet to wake up to a more real thing-which is our true nature- to realize the unreality of the real world :rolleyes:

Thank you very much Brian :)

There was a time when I was getting consecutive dreams. That was a little confusing:)

Thank you very much John... :)

Brian, yes...vedanta is very simplest truth that is the most difficult to understand.... :)

Nandakumar...this is my frequent prayer when I know I am doing something naughty or stupid because I know I am doing it or attempt to do it. :D Thank you for the early morning smile...
