“Some beings live by eating, but a few live by being.”

“Some beings live by eating, but a few live by being.”

🕊️ The Hymn of Flight

Somewhere between the whisper of wind and the silence of stars,
a small bird lifts its wings—
and what follows is not flight, but a hymn.


It eats barely fifty grams of food,
yet crosses oceans and continents for fifty days without rest.
Science observes and writes equations,
but numbers cannot hold wonder.


For the bird is not moving through air—
it is the movement of air itself.


How can such a fragile creature traverse twenty thousand kilometers on a single breath of life?
Not because it burns fuel—
but because it lives in perfect harmony.


Each heartbeat, each wingbeat, each gust of wind—
woven into one unbroken rhythm,
a cosmic coordination beyond effort or resistance.


Hibernating beings live on stored prana,
but this bird lives on flowing prana—
a current born of surrender, not struggle.


It doesn’t fight nature;
it dissolves into nature so deeply
that nature begins to fly through it.


Science calls it efficiency.
The mystic calls it grace.
But both are shadows of the same light.


No laboratory can replicate it,
for what sustains the bird is not energy—
it is awareness.
The bird does not know God.
It does not believe in science.
It simply is the prayer it never speaks. 🌿



🌌 The Universe, the Divine, and I


I once worked among people who said,
“There is no God.”
They fought against idols, rituals, and fear.
They stood for courage and reason.
I honour that fire even now.


But one quiet evening, beneath an endless sky,
I asked myself:
If there is a God beyond the universe—
then whose universe is this?
If He stands outside creation,
has He not exiled Himself from His own breath?


From that moment, I stopped searching above.
For me, the universe itself is divine.
The atom and the galaxy are not creations of God—
they are expressions of God.


A coin and the metal within it are not two.
A dancer and the dance cannot be separated.
Existence and divinity are one rhythm.


I am not an atheist.
I am not a believer.
I am a child,
staring at the sky—
not worshipping, not debating,
but wondering.


The atheist denies God.
The theist defines Him.
I only witness Him—
in the pause between breaths,
in the rhythm of the sea,
in the trembling leaf that drinks morning light.


Call it Nature.
Call it God.
Call it the Unnamed Pulse of Being.


Whatever the name, the truth remains one:


The Universe and the Divine are one breath—
and I am that breath,
aware of itself.


🕊️ The Final Whisper

And perhaps, somewhere above,
a small bird still flies—
not to reach heaven,
but to remind heaven
where it truly lives.

> To witness the universe without the cage of belief or denial —
that is the purest form of devotion.
The bird flies by harmony,
the mind lives by wonder.
Between them lies the truth:
Life itself is divine. 🌿


 “Some beings live by eating,
but a few live by being.”

The 3rd Button Computers Forgot


The 3rd Button concept illustration — an app dialog with Yes/No and a missing third button.

In today’s computerized world, almost every system runs on a simple binary: Yes or No. Click “Yes,” and you agree. Click “No,” and you reject. But what about the millions of moments when we neither agree nor disagree when we simply don’t understand what we are being asked? That’s where the problem begins.


Most computer systems, apps, and websites assume that the user is already aware of every technical term, every consequence, and every hidden clause. Yet in reality, a large portion of users ordinary human beings face a silent confusion. 


The screen flashes a question, often related to money, data sharing, or permissions, and the user has only two options: Yes or No. There is no room for a third option “No, I don’t understand. Please explain.” This absence is not just a design flaw. It’s a moral flaw. When a person is confused, technology must assist, not manipulate. 


When clarity is missing, computers should guide, not trap. But the modern software industry, obsessed with efficiency and profit, forgets one essential truth: Technology without empathy becomes tyranny in disguise. Imagine if every dialog box had a third button: “Explain this in simple terms.” It would protect millions from accidental financial losses, wrong clicks, and digital exploitation. 


It would make technology human. The idea of a third button is not about adding a feature it’s about restoring fairness, trust, and understanding. Every machine should respect the user’s right to clarity. After all, a confused human should never be treated as a faulty machine. 




A True Lesson from a False Click


Rajesh was a software wizard the kind of man who could fix any computer in minutes. In his office, people called him The Tech Doctor. He trusted his machines more than he trusted people. After all, computers never lied. Or so he thought. 


One evening, while transferring a large payment, his banking app suddenly flashed a small window:

“Do you wish to proceed?

Yes / No.” It was a simple question.

He was tired, rushing for a flight, and barely noticed the extra line of fine print below something about “auto conversion of funds.” Without thinking twice, he clicked “Yes.” In ten seconds, his years of savings disappeared into a system glitch or perhaps into someone else’s account.


The customer care said politely, “You have agreed to the terms, sir.” He tried to explain he didn’t understand those terms. But the machine had already decided. There was no third button that said, “Wait… I don’t understand. Please explain.” That night, Rajesh sat before his computer the same machine he had once worshipped and stared at its silent screen. It didn’t blink. It didn’t feel sorry. It had done its job efficiently, heartlessly. 


He realized something no manual had ever taught him: The real virus was not in the computer, but in the arrogance of those who designed it without space for human confusion.


Final Thought:


If science can send rockets to Mars, why can’t it create a small button for honesty on Earth? Until that day comes, every click we make will remind us of the "3rd button computers forgot".
