IN FORMER DAYS

"In former days we'd both agree

That you were me, and I was you.

What has now happened to us two,

That you are you, and I am me?"

BHARTRHARI (5TH CENTURY)

TRANS. JOHN BROUGH

--

I sit here, in a different state, but the same time zone--finally, for the first time again in a month and some days leftover. At the kitchen table, a friend in another room, but you across this state and another, and then that's where you've ended up. Alone, out in the woods with others doing what you do. But you have little to no service.

Up until then, when you reached your destination for that moment of time--whether two weeks or three--you left. And you became you. There was no "us," and there slowly became no more "you and me, me and you." We became you as you, and me as me.

For the time being? Or forevermore? Will we part here, leave each other as their selves, or will we reunite as one, in unity, as you as me, and me as you?

Centuries ago one of the most popular Sanskrit poets Bhartrhari, while highlighting the specialty of Yoga, said:

धैर्यं यस्य पिता क्षमा च जननी शान्तिश्चिरं गेहिनी

सत्यं सूनुरयं दया च भगिनी भ्राता मनः संयमः।

शय्या भूमितलं दिशोSपि वसनं ज्ञानामृतं भोजनं

एते यस्य कुटिम्बिनः वद सखे कस्माद् भयं योगिनः।।

Meaning that by regularly practising Yoga, a person can imbibe some very good qualities like courage which protects like a father, forgiveness as possessed by a mother & mental peace which becomes a permanent friend. Through regular practise of Yoga truth becomes our child, mercy our sister, self-control our brother, the earth becomes our bed & knowledge satiates our hunger.

The International Yoga Day 2023 will be celebrated on the official theme, “Yoga for Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”, which also represents as “One Earth, One Family, One Future.” This theme emphasises the healthy being of every individual irrespective of any discrimination with the regular practice of Yoga.

“The Goddess of Learning does not smile on those who neglect the ancients.”

— Bhartrihari as quoted by John Brough (1951).

[pandaemoniumpancakes]

She who is always in my thoughts prefers Another man, and does not think of me. Yet he seeks for another's love, not hers; And some poor girl is grieving for my sake.      Why then, the devil take Both her and him, and love; and her; and me.                             ❧ The maid my true heart loves would not my true love be; She seeks another man; another maid loves he; And me another maid her own true love would see: Oh, fie on her and him and Love and HER and me!

Está en Centuria de amor de Bhartrhari.

[sundanzer]

nvy possesses those that know, Great men are drunk with pride, The vulgar no discernment show; Who shall for bards provide? I tremble at my merit gained in this revolving world, Bitter shall be its after-taste, when back to life I'm hurled, Those carnal pleasures won by long-continued acts of right, Lay heavy burdens on the soul and check its upward flight. I've boldly crossed the stormy brine, I've striven kings to please, In grave-yards plied my midnight spells, nor cured that fell disease, Earth's bowels have I searched for wealth, and melted stones with fire, Thou see'st, no doit rewards my pains, then leave me now, Desire!

The relationship between language and reality attracted me to Indian Philosophy many years ago and still represents a way of apprehending intelligibility through hermeneutics.
