This incident took place in Chakori a small hill station in Uttrakhand area. A retired commissioner who was from Calcutta used to watch the beautiful peaks of Nanda devi for hours. I wondered what it is that he was watching so continuously every morning for two days. Then, when I was not able to bear it any longer, I questioned him about the same. Obviously, I was watching with limited observation. He explained that you cannot consider any beautiful moment to be similar to other. Every moment is different though they appear similar.
The most wonderful thing about beautiful objects, whether living or non-living is that they do not stay the same for any moment of time. We perceive the same as stationary while beauty is an assimilation of light, object and time. All these things keep on changing every second so is that object of beauty. We do not perceive things as a system but as an individual object and this limits our perception. For instance just take a camera and take a shot of the morning sunrise or any object of your liking. Take another shot and then another and keep on doing it within a span of twenty seconds.
Now use a computer to see those digital images. You will see that all of these pics are different though they appear similar on first glance. But if you see it with clearer brain and enhanced perception you will understand what I mean to say. So is the case of our perceptions about truth of life or our ideologies. They are based on assimilations and as such they succumb to change. Friends, nothing in this world stays forever, it even does not stay for a millisecond.
