🌊 Within the Dream of Vishnu | ವಿಷ್ಣುವಿನ ಕನಸಿನೊಳಗೆ

ಕನ್ನಡ

ಕಾಲದ ಅಂಚುಗಳಿಗೂ ತಲುಪದ, ತೀರವಿಲ್ಲದ ಸಮುದ್ರವೊಂದು ಇದೆ. ಅದು ನಮಗೆ ತಿಳಿದ ನೀರಲ್ಲ — ಅದು ಅಸ್ತಿತ್ವದ ಅನಂತ ಸಾಗರ, ಶಾಂತ, ಅಚಲ, ಶಾಶ್ವತ. ಅದರ ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅನಂತನಾಗ ಶೇಷನ ಮೇಲೆ ವಿಶ್ರಾಂತಿಯಾಗಿರುವ ಶ್ರೀಮಹಾವಿಷ್ಣು.

ಅವರ ಕಣ್ಣುಗಳು ಅರ್ಧ ಮುಚ್ಚಿವೆ — ಮನುಷ್ಯರ ನಿದ್ರೆಯಂತೆ ಅಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ಸೃಷ್ಟಿ ಮತ್ತು ಲಯಗಳು ಅವರ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನ ಮೃದುವಾದ ಅಲೆಗಳಂತೆ ಹರಿಯುವ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ.

ಅವರ ನಾಭಿಯಿಂದ ಅರಳಿದ ಕಮಲದ ಮೇಲೆ ಬ್ರಹ್ಮನು ಕುಳಿತಿದ್ದಾನೆ — ಲೋಕಗಳನ್ನು ರೂಪಿಸುವ ಶಿಲ್ಪಿ. ಆ ಕಮಲದಿಂದ ಆಕಾಶಗಂಗೆಗಳು ಹುಟ್ಟುತ್ತವೆ, ನದಿಗಳು ಪರ್ವತಗಳ ಎಲುಬುಗಳನ್ನು ಕೆತ್ತುತ್ತವೆ, ಬೀಜದೊಳಗೆ ಜೀವದ ಮೊದಲ ಉಸಿರು ಮೂಡುತ್ತದೆ. ಇವೆಲ್ಲವೂ — ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ನಕ್ಷತ್ರ, ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಹೃದಯದ ತಾಳ, ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಪ್ರಾರ್ಥನೆ — ಸಂರಕ್ಷಕರ ಕನಸಿನೊಳಗಿನ ದೃಶ್ಯಗಳು.

ಈ ಕನಸಿನಲ್ಲೇ ನಾವು ಬದುಕುತ್ತೇವೆ. ನಾವು ಪ್ರೀತಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ, ದುಃಖಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ, ನಿರ್ಮಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ, ಧ್ವಂಸಗೊಳಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ. ನಾವು ನಮ್ಮ ಕಥೆಗಳ ಲೇಖಕರು ಎಂದು ನಂಬುತ್ತೇವೆ, ಆದರೆ ನಾವು ದೈವಿಕ ಕಥೆಯ ಪಾತ್ರಗಳೂ ಹೌದು. ವಿಷ್ಣು ಉಸಿರೆಳೆದಾಗ ಯುಗಗಳು ಕಳೆಯುತ್ತವೆ; ಉಸಿರೆಳೆದಾಗಲೇ ಬ್ರಹ್ಮಾಂಡವು ಮತ್ತೆ ಆ ಶಾಂತ ಸಾಗರದಲ್ಲಿ ಲೀನವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

ಇದು “ನಿಜ”ವೇ ಅಥವಾ “ಮಾಯೆ”ಯೇ ಎಂಬುದಲ್ಲ, ದೈವದ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಕನಸು ಸಹ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯಿಂದ ಹಿಡಿದಿಟ್ಟಿದೆ ಎಂಬುದೇ ಅದ್ಭುತ. ಶಾಶ್ವತನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾವುದೂ ಅಲ್ಪವಲ್ಲ, ಯಾವುದೂ ಅಸ್ಥಿರವಲ್ಲ.

ನಾವು ಕನಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಟ್ಟಿದವರಾದರೆ, ವಿಷ್ಣು ಎಚ್ಚರವಾದಾಗ ಅವರು ನಗುವಂತೆ — ಈ ಕನಸನ್ನು ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಸುಂದರವಾಗಿ ಬದುಕೋಣ.


English

Somewhere beyond the reach of time, the ocean has no shore. It is not water as we know it, but the endless expanse of existence itself—calm, unbroken, eternal. Upon its surface rests the serpent Ananta, coils without beginning or end, breathing in the rhythm of infinity.

And there, reclining in serene majesty, is Vishnu. His eyes are half‑closed, not in sleep as mortals know it, but in a state where creation and dissolution are the gentle tides of his mind.

From the stillness of his being, a lotus blooms from his navel, carrying Brahma—the architect of worlds. Galaxies spiral into being, rivers carve the bones of mountains, and the first breath of life stirs in the smallest seed. All of it—every star, every heartbeat, every whispered prayer—is a scene unfolding in the dream of the Preserver.

In this dream, we live our days. We love, we grieve, we build, we destroy. We believe ourselves to be the authors of our stories, yet we are also the characters in a tale told by the divine. When Vishnu inhales, ages pass; when he exhales, the universe dissolves into the quiet ocean once more.

Perhaps the wonder is not in whether this is “real” or “illusion,” but in knowing that even as a dream, it is cherished. For in the mind of the eternal, nothing is too small to be held, nothing too fleeting to be remembered.

If we are dream‑born, then let us live as the most beautiful dream possible—so that when Vishnu stirs, he smiles.

🏠 The Conspiracy to Break India’s Joint Family System

  When Families Break, Markets Flourish In the name of modernity, we’ve traded warmth for Wi-Fi, wisdom for algorithms, and relationships for subscriptions. But this wasn’t just a cultural drift—it was a calculated shift. 🧭 What Was India’s Greatest Strength? For centuries, India stood resilient. Mughals came. The British ruled. But one thing remained unshaken: The Joint Family System. It was our real social security —no pensions, no loneliness, no mental health epidemics. Grandparents were guides. Cousins were companions. Festivals were shared, not streamed. 🧠 Why Did the West Dislike This? Western economies thrive on individualism and consumption . But in India, where people shared, reused, and lived collectively, the market couldn’t grow. So a strategy was born: “Break their families. Make everyone lonely. Then everyone becomes a customer.” 📺 How Was This Attack Carried Out? Media portrayed joint families as quarrelsome and outdated Nuclear families we...

🌾 The Boy Who Slept Through the Storm: A Lesson in Preparedness

Once upon a time, near the coastal edge of a village, there lived a farmer whose life depended entirely on his field. The land was fertile, but the skies were unpredictable. Floods and hurricanes visited often, and each time, they brought fear, damage, and sleepless nights. The farmer knew he couldn’t manage alone. He needed help—not just to sow and reap, but to protect what he had built when the winds turned wild. 🧑‍🌾 The Search for a Helping Hand He interviewed many—strong men, clever boys, experienced workers. None felt right. Then one day, a lean, sorrowful-looking boy came asking for work. The farmer hesitated. Could this boy handle the storms? But with no better option, he agreed. The boy accepted—with one strange condition: “When the storm comes, I sleep deeply. Other times, I’ll work as needed.” 🌩️ The Night of the Storm Weeks passed. One night, the skies roared. Rain lashed the earth. Floodwaters rose. The farmer woke in panic and rushed to the boy’s hu...

☔ Rain, Ride, and the Biometric Machine:

Some people believe the weather is random. I believe it has a wicked sense of timing—especially during office hours. 🌧️   Morning Madness: The Ride to Remember It all begins with a drizzle. I gear up, hop on my bike, and head toward the office like a determined warrior. But the moment I hit the main road— boom —the skies open up like someone hit the “monsoon mode” switch. Puddles splash, my raincoat flaps like a superhero cape, and visibility drops to “guess and go.” By the time I reach the office, I’m soaked, squelching with every step. I walk in like a waterlogged legend and stood in front of the biometric scanner.   And just like that... the rain stops. Coincidence? I think not. 🕒 The Great Biometric Rain Switch It’s almost as if the rain was waiting for me to clock in. I imagine a weather god somewhere chuckling, “Alright, he’s in. Turn it off.” The day goes on. Files, meetings, coffee. The sun peeks out. Birds chirp. I start to believe the worst is over. But th...
