I mostly blog or post things that touche me, mixed in with my own stuff here and there, that I want to share; Mostly things I want to come back to. If you happen to be one of those who stumbled upon my blog and liked it, I am already glad about that. Like a little pebble in the stream that caught a child’s eye, I imagine my blog being an interesting find.
Me
I am Rajeev Bacchu, from Bangalore, India. Playing with my little life, in this beautiful world, with some good company. I am a tinkerer in spirit.
“A place becomes a home when it sustains you, when it feeds you in body as well as spirit.”
— Robin Wall Kimmerer
As of this writing, I am in the process of finding home in our little farm ||bahulavana|| - Finding home and finding community.
To say a bit more…
My life has been woven by fate & fortune, places & people, needs, exploration, learning & play. I’ve simply sought to live a meaningful life to myself and my world. Labels, I believe don’t suit the fluidity of my being. I find it hard to frame myself in titles. I kind of, align with the sentiments of some inspiring folks who’ve spoken about self-definition that I quote blow:
“I live on Earth at present, and I don’t know what I am. I know that I am not a category. I am not a thing - a noun. I seem to be a verb, an evolutionary process - an integral function of the universe”
— R. Buckminister Fuller.
“I never wish to be easily defined. I’d rather float over other people’s minds as something strictly fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person”
— Franz Kafka.
“Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won’t die. You will come to life. And don’t be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it’s their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don’t be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious presence. You can only loose something that you have, but you cannot loose something that you are.”
— Jim Morrison
I view myself as a tinkerer for life, an eternal novice in every endeavor. A perspective that inspired my chosen name, “rawjeev” that playfully translates to: “Raw-Life”.
