hmm we have to photograph what remains......but hope more remains because we photograph them .......


our screens are not doing justice to the pano. May be a slide show sometime.........

Hard hitting title & image, Ganesh! I've seen stories of people who have lost their houses because of these dams. Wish we could listen to the trees.

Once upon a time this was an ever green jungle, now it has lost all its colours and become pale. From Life to lifeless in the name of Life

What 'remains' when we are free from the 'known'? That space is the space of goodness and creativity I visualise.......! Dried up stumps and that too in water creates the waves of thoughts of ever going duality in the human mind.......! When these waves cease, there 'remains' absolute consciousness of freedom.......! Panoramic view helps create ever and far flowing river of life....

I am reminded of Osho's following description: (And I visualise, "How would it have been if this image were the title page of it?")

"In Hermann Hesse’s book Siddhartha, Siddhartha lives with a boatman. And there is no one, just the river, the boatman and Siddhartha. And the boatman is a very silent man. He has lived all his life with the river. He has become silent, he rarely speaks. Whenever Siddhartha feels lonely, he tells Siddhartha to go to the river, to listen to the river. It is better than listening to human words.

And then by and by, Siddhartha is attuned to the river. Then he begins to feel its moods - the river changes moods. Sometimes it is friendly and sometimes it is not, and sometimes it is singing and sometimes it is weeping and crying, and sometimes there is laughter and sometimes there is sadness. And then he begins to feel the slight, delicate differences. His ear becomes attuned."

I love this image very much.....

Thanks and regards...
