I am strange

who am i

Have you wondered over your own being? Have you ever known where you came from? Farthest point you can reach is the moment where your parents were merrily making love and you happened. Out of those millions of sperms and eggs in competition in a mother’s womb, a person’s present being sprouted from two lucky candidates that could give birth to a new life. But the question of your being is not answered yet. There is more mystery to this question. Life has merely transformed at the moment you happened. A mystery has become even more mysterious now.

An hour long constant observation of one’s own self in the mirror in a lonely room will reveal the height of this mystery. It will be one of those wonderful opportunities for silence to dive in, when you are lost in your own being, honestly accepting the fact that you don’t know yourself. Saying unto yourself – ‘Who am I? Who am I? WHO AM I??’

    For your questions in the beginning my answer would be Yes. Yes I’ve pondered over this questions many a times. And i still have no answers. I mean, look at the Universe. No ends. It just goes on and on. So huge and full of mysteries. Then why is “I” so important. We are just some surprisingly very nice and correct coincidence in this random world.

    Some questions are beyond human’s range of wisdom. Who knows when we will get the answers, or do we really need the answers?

    • “Then why is “I” so important”

      I feel ‘I’ is important because it is the most amazing and unpredictable thing I have ever known, felt or thought about.

      I wanna live. I wanna grow. I wanna be happy. I wanna be good. I wanna be loved. I wanna be calm. I wanna see. I wanna hear. I wanna touch.

      I is always around and it is still unknown. So, it is important :)

      I fail to believe that the world is random :) All that I have known, felt and experienced had some order to it.

      Whether we need answers or not is a personal question. It is the ultimate question – a question that can will follow every other question in the universe. The most obvious, yet so un-obvious.

        I know there is some order of course, but it so huge even to be understood. I’m curious! :)

        Life is beautiful!

        • Huge.. It is more than that ;)

          About two years back I got fascinated by fractal geometry, patterns in nature, similarities in quantum physics and ancient spiritual principles, prime numbers etc. It was sort of maddening experience to be completely immersed in contemplations when similar patterns began to emerge in my own thoughts.

          To say, there is some order, implies there is God. It implies the direct existence of abstract intelligence or absolute condition that caused or resulted in the present shape of universe and continues to do so. That’s what most theorists find highly problematic.

          My conclusion of definitive order is not completely due to my external or internal observations. It is the result of my definitive choice. An ordered universe is what I choose for myself :)

  4. Why the title is I am strange? When I first read the title, I though it would be the writing about yourself, how u recognize yourself and how you accept who you are, that each of us is really strange.
    Sorry to give you this compliment :-p
