Where there is no belief in the soul, there is very little drama . . . . Either one is serious about salvation or one is not. And it is well to realize that the maximum amount of seriousness admits the maximum amount of comedy. Only if we are secure in our beliefs can we see the comical side of the universe.

So what we have tried to do in our later buildings is to try to be completely consistent, as a painter is consistent or as a sculptor is consistent. Architecture also must be very consistent.

Pitter - Pat into Darkness...by Talile Ali
To many visions
My impending death
I haven't been quite right since I turned
Every year is another marker without breath
What a waste
Time is an itch
I have to sit around
And witness, OK?
Whats there?
Witness genius as it gleams
That's all about
It ain't what It seem's
What a thing
Look at all of the wonder at play
The shapes and dreams
Contributing in every significant way
My dreams
Your dreams
Everybody's dreams
Dreams
There are so many multi verses
There is so much to life
So many planes
So many existences
Living and being
Being is the real freedom
What happens in that being
Predictable balance
Loving is
The maximum high
Work if the maximum reflection of love
The more you love, the more you are
Compelled to work
To create, to contribute
To be real
Pitter - pat into darkness
There is always a mist of awareness
The individuals passion play
Divinity is always ridged
Understanding is alway's
Subservient
Without giving any of it's
Power
A way

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

The outward freedom that we shall attain will only be in exact proportion to the inward freedom to which we may have grown at a given moment. And if this is a correct view of freedom, our chief energy must be concentrated on achieving reform from within.

If "freedom" means, first of all, the responsibility of every individual for the rational determination of his own personal, professional and social existence, then there is no greater fear than that of the establishment of general freedom. Without a thoroughgoing solution of this problem there never will be a peace lasting longer than one or two generations. To solve this problem on a social scale, it will take more thinking, more honesty and decency, more conscientiousness, more economic, social and educational changes in social mass living than all the efforts made in previous and future wars and post-war reconstruction programs taken together.

Even the most wretched individual of our present society could not exist and develop without the cumulative social efforts of countless generations. Thus the individual, his freedom and reason, are the products of society, and not vice versa: society is not the product of individuals comprising it; and the higher, the more fully the individual is developed, the greater his freedom — and the more he is the product of society, the more does he receive from society and the greater his debt to it.

India Rising Part IV
In the late nineteenth century, the Indian national congress was born,
The public hailed it in unison but the selfish Britishers shown a scorn.
It gave a new thrust to National movement for achieving self-governance,
Spread the idea of democracy, civil liberties, and the religious tolerance.
The movement was led by two groups from different school of thought,
One was called Moderates, the cool, and the other as Militants the hot.
Lal, Bal and Pal were the fore-runners of Militants daring and intrepid,
Their philosophy was to hit hard on the imperialistic regime to get rid.
Moderates were no less though humbleness was their method to pursue,
They believed in non-violence, rallies, and meetings to resolve any issue.
The social order saw a sea change from total domineering to egalitarian,
Socio-religious reforms were conducted to create a society humanitarian.
To end customs and rituals like sati, child marriage, life long widowhood,
Individuals and organizations came forward with a zest for society’s good.
Education and equality for women was the serious concern of reformers
In future development of nation they were thought to be great performers.
Untouchability was the deep rooted evil of the society for ages together,
A Biggest hurdle to a social system for all to live with dignity and honor.
The father of nation Mahatma Gandhi fought lifelong for its eradication,
The constitution abolished it to bring social justice without discrimination.
In the first quarter of twentieth century the movement was quite grown up,
M. K. Gandhi an Indian lawyer from South Africa assumed the leadership.
He was a simple man, who preached and practiced truth and non-violence,
One, who fought the freedom fight bare-handedly with peaceful pursuance.
The English were blinded by the power and supremacy, they established,
Jaliyanwalla Bagh massacre was also one of gory wounds they inflicted.

Is The Battle Worth Fighting?
some individuals fight battles
with other individuals needlessly
some individuals are never long
content with getting their own way
some individuals fight ferociously
to dominate all those around about
some individuals who cannot safe vent dominate
their own desires seek to next dominate all others
some individuals who cannot control own emotions
seek to control all within range sphere of influence

The Route of Life
Young, unassuming, laid back, unsure
I planned my life out
I laid out the map and ran the routes in my mind
Consistent of fairy tales, consistent of dreams and expectations.
I wanted life, love, happiness and money in that very order.
Oh I got all those things
I have a life.
Filled to the brim with hardships,
Filled with failed dreams
Filled with failed attempts at truly living
Oh I got all those things
I have love
Non-existent love
False senses of love
Fake love
Oh I got all those things
I have happiness
Delusional happiness
Forced happiness
Happiness that is dependent on others
Oh I got all those things
I have money
Enough money to barely eat
Enough money to barely support my family
Enough money to never fulfill my dreams
Young, unassuming, laid back, unsure
I continue to plan my life out
I follow the maps and run the routes
Consistent with reality, consistent with dreams and expectations
I want life, love, happiness and money in that very order
