So the first thought which led to this episode was that sometimes the modern concept of security can make us feel insecure if its not there but sometimes even if it is there, in our laps, rather than feeling secure we are afraid of losing it any other moment and hence keep an eagle’s watch on it; work hard to keep it with us. May be that’s what our art is, leading to ‘n’ number of creations. May be that’s our absorption. But as soon as the word art popped up, the second thought wave arrived and I asked: what is the source of security for artists? I have met artists whose absorption into their art replaces what all we do to keep the security by our sides. For instance, Van Gogh, Rumi. So, I asked what keeps them going? Clubbing the two thought waves together, I ruminated on the question: where is the creativity to keep the insecurities at a distance born? What is the dance of Rumi born out from? Thus, the wall is wearing is a rumination… So here is for you an episode trying to peep into the cauldron of creativity to be able to shed away the inhibitions to have an absorbing tête-à-tête with the multiverse…..with the Unknown; the Uncertain…..to ultimately celebrate Wearing of the Walls… PS: Walls are important but sometimes their wearing away is also important

I was thinking that perhaps life itself is an antidepressant. What do you think? The hope inherent in life knocks our doors in 'n' number of weird ways even when we suffer from depression and are being pushed and pulled by its myriad forms towards an abyss. Maybe an antidote to antidepressant drug industry. I wanted to share with you the sound of that knock through this poem...

My father in law passed away recently. It was in his room that my brother in law found some old pictures. This poem (Tasveerein) conceived out of the experience of living the life in those photographs in the context of death.
