Maan, Swabhimaan, Abhimaan, aur Saaman
I was thinking randomly.
About human life.
How a child grows up.
First seeks maan, seeking approval from older, seeking encouragement, inspiration.
Then comes seeking swabhimaan, as a teenager. Swah = Self. rowing self-confident, questioning everyone and everything.
Then comes Abhimaan, ego. Ego of youth. Strength. Disrespect for anyone weak. Dreams.
And then only comes Sammaan. Sam+Maan. Sam = Equal. Equal respect for all. An old person only seeks to have equal respect to all.
Interesting Maan!
Random musings,
TS.

TS, good to see you here.
Since you are in a philosophical mood, just wanted to share this quote I read recently. Kind of simple and pithy.
"There is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience."

I sleep on hardwood floors, for last 10 years :-)
Soft pillow is not what I seek.
Point being - Philosophy can never be quoted with a "materialistic" analogy :-)
Just teasin! :-)

Re: Maan, Swabhimaan, Abhimaan, aur Saaman
i asked my dh this trick question once. what's most important thing for a good night's sleep. we went on -
memory foam mattress
no
tempurpedic pillow
no
clean bed
no
perfect room temp
no
he got tired after a while and the right answer was - the person should be sleepy! I agree it's critical to have a clear conscience too

Some people will sleep if they find themselves in a comfortable bed like situation, any time of the day hehe.

Re: Maan, Swabhimaan, Abhimaan, aur Saaman
My paternal bloodline has a bad reputation of sleeping too well.
From almost fainted like naps after drinking lassi in hot Delhi afternoons, to putting 3 alarms in the morning today. I still prefer to stay awake the whole night when my flight is before 7 AM.
It also has to do with age. I remember Delta Airlines folks giving me pillow and quilt at Atlanta Airport at 5 AM, as I slept on those uncomfortable seats with my bag under my feet, trying to catch my connecting flight.... every week....for 5 years...Platinum member, over a million miles, and first to be called to board...
Cant do it anymore.
So yes, sleep is indeed for sleepy.
Enough for now,
TS.
