I am sure if by chance you looked at my ramblings since 7 days before year 2021 beginning (t21), you might have wondered what it was all about and why blog them and post across social media. Some background/context relating to such ramblings.

It was probably a result of not writing my blogs for quite a long time, but some thoughts that occurred to me during some creative moments, but I didn’t log it in my journal or structure it. Sometimes even I forgot about it. But the concept of time and time travel has fascinated me for years. So did vedanta philosophy. And since I have been practicing heartfulness/sahaj marg meditation for years now, I have been enlightened by the many Masters and their literature. This had helped me to take some clear perceptions about some of these concepts for years, and later even quantum physics and newer observations, theories proposed by scientists seem to align with this.

And during COVID lockdown, as many others, I had also watched many streaming series of science fiction, time travel..and netflix series on The Social Dilemma…

As I took my vacation for the final week of 2020, I had jotted down some of the thoughts in random order without worrying about giving any structure to it. And knowing well, if I sit to write a blog, that will take my time away from enjoying vacation with family, I decided to keep it in an interlaced manner with my own social media behavior.

So that’s how without much thought, but with some shaping and editing before posting, those landed up on the blogging pages. But it has given me some momentum to now focus on better writing in 2021. So here is the final set in this series.

Uninstalled the app to normalize the dopamine spikes since last week :-)

Series of posts, on my understanding of concepts of time, space interlaced with ramblings(mostly).

Hope you skimmed through it without getting bored :-)

Hope to blog more creatively in 2021(t21) (as before)

💚💚Wishing you and your loved ones, a great 2021 and beyond. I wish we all contribute to a more positive, compassionate, tolerant, and accepting others from bottom of our hearts ❤️, for a better world and times to come for the younger generation and children of the future. ☄️☄️

Keep following me and ignore the ramblings if it wasn’t of any use at all.
