Songs from the Second Floor
10987654321 One word for this movie is: insane and poetic. I have never seen such an astounding movie. Songs from the Second Floor is a Swedish surrealist film written and directed by Roy Andersson. Set in present-day Stockholm, the movie does not follow the traditional way. Human misery, chaos and suffering are shown in an ultimate perfection. Lasse is seen dragging his boss away, holding onto his leg, to a void of misery and asphyxiation. In another scene, immigrants are be…

Upanishad and Kierkegaard— and how I went to follow the path of Avyakt
Søren Kierkegaard was a Danish philosopher and theologian who is known for his influence on the field of existentialism, a philosophical movement that emphasizes individual freedom and choice, the inherent meaninglessness of life, and the search for meaning and purpose in the face of this worthlessness. His works always fascinate me, especially his most essential work, Either/Or, published in 1843, which is why he is known as the father of existentialism.When I first read t…

In search of void
I stand without
help,
In this extensive
and void world,My bottoms
planted resolutely on the soil,But my mind
lost in thought.I question
my purpose,My place in
this existence,As the winds
of time blow past me,Leaving me
feeling small and insignificant.I search for
meaning,In the
depths of my soul,But all I
find is a void,A void that
fills me with fear and uncertainty.I am but a
mere speck,In the grand
scheme of things,A fleeting
moment in the eternal flow of time,But still, I

Let me kiss you under the bamboos
I remember, The lights were travelling throughAnd through bamboo,Ah! Leaving sun-streaks on your face.“I could be perverted,” I said.You were silent like those bamboos.Standing and being silentGot the permission to slide into your heartBut,I didn’t knowMy perverseness was different from yours.You,Came and goneLike, scudded clouds, far into the sky.Leaving beautiful,Trails of memories.Like in the storiesParted with incompleteDenouement,Indeed.Would you come to sit with me,Und…

Cradle of square one
I-Prelude I don’t have a wingsBut I fly to you every moment Like winds of summer,I restored, fondled, and caressed my mindOf paradise- Perpendicular to your thoughts. Let us move to the beginning, you, and IAnd I will follow the path you carvedTo reach out the heart of grace.Like a penguin stand on the shore And see the spreading sea on the horizonWhat is he thinking?Silence of the night or the flares of the tidesOr the echoes of his hens! They departed midst of the eternal …

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest: to be trap without any possibility to escape
My one word for this movie is: incredible! This reminds me of my youth struggling with my own sanity to win over own-self. Nurse Ratched is my true sense and Randle Patrick McMurphy (This character always had my attention) is --my dark emotions which I have to excavate--to escape. When? Never know... Let's dive deep into the movie.
The script called for McMurphy to leap on a guard and kiss him when first arriving at the hospital. During filming, director Milos Forman deci…
How 2001: A Space Odyssey can help you understand Nietzsche’s philosophy.
In 1889, Eiffel tower was about to achieve her final splendor, Nietzsche collapsed on the same year. On the one side highest monument was towering herself and on the other side the ultimate man just collapsed from his philosophical thoughts. In literature, nothing stands on the side of Don Quixote or on the philosophy or anything that can overcome Nietzschean philosophy. Music’s greatness is just captured by Mozart or art by Van Gough. And there is another magnificence creat…

Through the eyes of Nietzsche—I am not dynamite.
I am no dynamite. I have no plan to explode myself in any near future, But Nietzsche had a plan. In his book Ecche Homo, he vigorously claimed that he is dynamite and that’s true. He was of course dynamite. I find his expression very condescending.
“ Foucault examined the relationship between truth and power, Derrida gave us the controversial method of understanding the world (truth) Heidegger believes that we construct our truth from within and ignore the single truth. Niet…
