Why the why is not the starting point

In a deterministic calibrated system, like a toy or a space rocket engine, where the input – process – output relationships are known, we can get a clear answer to the question why did a particular problem occur or why the system exists. However, in an open system, with large number of variables and complex dynamic relationships, which means nature, humans, organizations, societies and, nations, the why to ...

It is not what you know that is important

It is that, what-you-know points to, which is important. What can be articulated, codified, measured is the phenomenon. What cannot be articulated, codified, measured is the source. Just like how, The intangibles shape the tangibles. The mind precedes matter. And the consciousness precedes the mind. Or for those with a scientific bent of mind, The vacuum generates the Casimir force, the empty space throws up zero-point energy and the ...

Can you wait, while you are at it

Universe operates in a non-linear, non-mechanistic way. Humans like to go from A to B. Universe goes A to -A, to -B and then via 0 to B. The higher the intention, the longer it takes to gain momentum. However there comes a tipping point, when it kicks-in and surges ahead -- disproportionate to the incremental energy being invested. This is the compounding effect in investments. And this is ...

If you had the attention of the world for 60 seconds

What would you say? Would you try to say what you feel. Would you try to say what you think they want to hear. Would you try to address each individual’s reality. Would you try to say something that connects all. Would you be visionary or keep the boat steady. You struggle, till you realize there is no separate you or them. It is about you in them, and ...

Let your harmonics play you

Everything is a form of energy and vibrates at its fundamental / natural frequency. For example, Earth's natural frequency, also called Schumann Resonance / Earth’s heartbeat, is 7.83 hertz. Interestingly, when our brain waves are operating around 7-8 Hertz, we experience relaxation, improved focus, healing, and sleep. Most vibrating objects have more than one frequency and these are always whole number multiples of the fundamental frequency – called harmonics. ...

The universe in a grain of sand

They say, the Universe is a fractal – a never ending pattern seen at all scales. Humans have the ability to zoom in and zoom out and search for patterns. These patterns can be observed in stock markets, biology, weather, cosmology, astrology, architecture and practically everything. All of science and art is a pattern seeking endeavor. Some patterns are at the very core of everything. They define the very ...

Context precedes content

We are a consumer society. Knowledge is being churned out and consumed at dizzying pace. It does not necessarily mean, we are getting better and wiser. Just like H2O is not wetness, models are not reality and maps are not the territory, similarly someone else’s experience is not our truth. They can all be great aids and indicative, but they cannot replace one’s own truth. The more unchartered is ...

You wish to grow. Have you made room for wonder, imagination, and surprises.

We can look back and glow in our achievements. Everything we have, can be directly attributed to science, logic, perseverance, and hard work. The logical left brain dominates the human landscape. The credit is well deserved. This is about acknowledging what we do not know, even in areas where we excel, and having the humility to accept that we continue to progress, sometimes without having the foggiest idea, as ...

Simplicity in Principles = Richness in Life

Natures derives so much from so little. 4 nitrogenous bases, found in DNA of all living things, combine to form 20 amino acids which combine to form different types of proteins required for all life on Earth… as per some estimate some 9 million plant and animal species. What principles drive your thinking. Help you connect the dots, navigate life, and find your mojo. I believe ...

Are you mistaking deep thinking for clear thinking.

Are you mistaking deep thinking for clear thinking. The purpose of thinking is to understand. Understanding that leads to clarity, conviction, and right actions. Deep thinking may or may not lead to understanding. Clear thinking leads to understanding. Deep thinking can lead to digging a deep hole in search of water while clear thinking keeps asking ‘what is really important to keep in mind’ while laying out all the ...
