Psychotic conversations: Part 2


Where: Guest house, Living Room
When: Irrelevant…
Warning: The content is not meant for entertainment. Interactions with Psycho were found to be injurious to commonsense.

Psycho was exercising in the living room. Its funny. It involves kicking air, trapping the air and crushing it between joints, fondling invisible shapes, communicating with ghosts through various head postures etc.
Eagle was walking towards bedroom.

Psycho: ….. I need to share an insight with you. I need your opinion on this!
Eagle: ?? (Shit, Not again…)
Psycho: (Comes close to eagle) This deals with a deeper insight. I think the world needs a better way of living. This sadhus and Gurus are spoiling the world.

Eagle: (Ok, it’s a known topic…)
Psycho: They r all base n greedy….Jus like uneducated counselors.


Eagle: (So? )……..Walks towards d sofa n settles down
Psycho: (People have problems. They need spiritual counselors. But this generation wont accept spirit and all with out logic. U know, they are exposed to science, reasoning etcetra , all thses things …U know? We should give them spiritual counseling in a scientific manner. …..In fact, I was thinking of training the gurus so that they can give better counseling….

Eagle: Not a bad idea…(If ppl r rational, y they go to all these gurus in thousands??)
Psycho: (Moves into the chair near by)Yes! Yes! I know u will appreciate it. But the problem is…..in India ppl respect only grey hair….isn’t it…..I don’t know how to convince them….(Psycho has no grey hair…Actually no hair….)

Eagle: What about west?
Psycho: Haaan, That also I thought… But there is a bigger problem. They respect only branded gurus..
Eagle: Hmmm!! May be you can take branded or grey gurus, do the brain wash and then use them for training others…
Psycho: But I want to start some thing very different. Very new. Pchhh, these gurus are not suitable for it.
Eagle: ???(Whats that?)

Psycho: Here I need ur help. I want to start something new……Something different..But I donno what it has to be.
Eagle: (Holy shit……….) U wanna help ppl or do something new?
Psycho: Excellent! You understood it clearly (A big smile on his face!).I want to help people. But, old solutions have been there for a while, still there are problems….so all old solutions must be wrong…isn’t it? I know ppl need a new solution.

Eagle: I have a different opinion…
Psycho: ?? (smile vanishes.) Yes, Please share it..(There’s apprehension in the voice)

Eagle: I think the solution remains same…its only the form which changes… Budha, did not preach immediately after knowing the solution..He thought a lot n after discovering a suitable form he started. Krishna also, knew arjuna for so long.. But he recited gita only in kurukshetra (Man! I hate this talk…)
Psycho: Excellent. U r right. Yes. Even, Krishna murthy did the same… But why is it so…Of course I am asking a deeper level question

Eagle: (Deep?) hmmm, Coz u can never teach any thing new to ppl. U can only help people realize wat they already know.
Psycho: (unnamed expression..)Excellent! U are sharing a deeeeeeeeeeep insight. I also feel so….But what shall I do now?

Eagle: It’s a good question.. Have u ever read a guru searching for a desciple?
Psycho: Haha! Never (laughing uncomfortably) .

Eagle: Same here. The world has a way of figuring out solutions. I thnk u shud do nothing….
Psycho: (Is he angry?Upset??) Thank you very much! I think u should share this insight with everybody
Eagle: Sure…

But Eagle, i wanted to say something you wrote on your blog. This is good. You know? It is but different. Its..... deeper. Its not something superficial and all that...Its not the outside. But it is very vast and holy. Normal people cannot understand this. You know? I learnt this from the French and English. My lovely friends there taught me this. These americans will not understand this you see!! And indians like fools are following them. Isnt it?

-yours sicerely
The Psycho
