There was a time when all the experiences were pure and direct, without passing through the cognition. It was the time when I saw without eyes, listened without ears and spoke without language. I remember vaguely, wandering around in serenity, It came to me, all laden with black cloak, with grimly grin, offered me some fruit, a piece of cloak and then It walked with me for a while. When I acquiescently accepted Its gift, I was stabbed with scythe and the next thing I knew I was thrown into this world, entrapped within a body. Now all I experience is slave to my mind, truth is poisoned with relevance and perception. I realize the fruit It gave me was for perpetual hunger, the yearning for more, the cloak was not to fashion the clothing, but was to veil my perversion, to hide the beast I have inside me , but worst of all the stabbing of scythe in my heart, was for the lingering of other's acceptance,,,

Bonn Voyage : Acceptance
One thing that I have learned is that the basic impetus of
human behavior is “acceptance”. We all as conscious beings, thrive for gaining
the acceptance of others. In a sense we all live in the consciousness of
others, with all our idiosyncrasies, we give ourselves to others for judgment,
for their approval and acceptance. This acceptance makes us complete, and fail
to gain one, makes us sullen. The emptiness prevails in the failure of gaining
other’s acceptance. For this we guise in sweetness, or wear the cloak which
suites others. And this morbid fascination grows, molding our behaviors and
personalities. But the thing which is most common in the people I met here, and
no shame of accepting it myself, the acceptance of opposite gender is most satisfying.
I have seen egos succumbing, self proclaimed rules defying, and people kneeling
down just for been accepted. Well once I was lingering for that too, but now
ain't gonna listen to song of sirens. As I have concluded first one should
seek acceptance within.
