Psyche is the great danger. ~ C.G. Jung
Rusticus told Marcus Aurelius to abstain from poetry, fine writing, orations and many things as recorded in the latter's Meditations.
Irshad Kamil can live inside the psychological elements that helps him write his poetry. He has a gift from the Lord. But not so for other men.
Kundan was not fit for the elements that his psychology showed. Devdas as imagined by Sarat Chandra wasn't either. Millions of men who have been penetrated by Eros are also not fit.
Kundan feels something other-worldly as his love puts some gulaal on his face. Raanjhanaa was a tragic film that hides behind Irshad Kamil's poetry, A.R. Rahman's music and Dhanush's energy.
If you hold yourself dear
then guard, guard yourself well.
The wise person would stay awake
nursing himself
in
any of the three watches of the night,
the three stages of life. ~ Buddha, Dhammapada
