How much math do we know?

I came across this new machine that beat the old Deep Blue in chess without studying a single human game. Its marvelous.

Yet, how many combinations are possible? What if it were a 16 x16 board? What if there exist more pieces with more types of moves? What if there were two kings? What if it was 3 dimensional game? What about n dimensions? There are infinite mathematical problem statements. They must also be having their definite solutions. Only we humans don't know yet. Maybe most of them are not relevant to our existence here. But they- the infinite problems and their solutions must exist. Only we don't know. So till date, how much have we unearthed?

Fake it

Are you interacting with the outer world while your inner world is not at its root? You have to fake it till you make it.

Are there hurdles in life?

Are you racing for something? May be the hurdles are to slow you down?

Is it the same taste that we want daily?

Daily we eat the same roti and the same rice and dal. Is it the same old and repetitive taste that we enjoy for 15 mins 3-4 times daily? For a change, we eat pizza. But its actually the same wheat and taste. And it's the same familiar taste of cheese that we have experienced countless number of times before. And the other tastes are also the same. The same sour taste of the olives. The same repeat spices. Even the hotels give the same repetitive taste. Wonder why we still crave and enjoy it with the same contentment for 3 to 4 times each day. Each time we enjoy it, we are only satiated for 3-4 hours and needs the same spices and wheat.

Pleasurable things so easily available?

May be are you just there and yet not affected?

Not able to handle desires?

For long term career related desires- Translate them into intentions. You know that you have translated them into intentions when you are not thinking about them and working on them too much, when you are not too much stressed, when failure is also fine, uncertainty is not bothering you, when you find interest in Meditation twice daily and listening to wisdom daily and seldom compromise them.

Desires that cannot be fulfilled- Wait for some time, few months, or few years. Eventually you realize that you are actually more happy and free that they did not get fulfilled. The pain of non fulfillment, that unpleasantness in the mind and body was actually temporary. It went away after some weeks, months or years when you realized that great it didn't happened, there was actually nothing special in it.

Cravings- Moderation, Meditation, Prayers, Good Company.

Who has understood karma?

Ravana, the person with immense knowledge and the creator of Shiva Tandava Strotra also ironically had high ego and arrogance. Is this wisdom and ignorance at the same time? He had to follow his ego, commit sins and fail in life in order to be liberated. So you commit sins in life to get liberated?!
