true communication--is it possible?

 true communication--is it possible?


what is perceived by senses is less than what is
what is conveyed is less than what is perceived
what is received by the recipient is less than what is conveyed
what is understood is less than what is received

there are infinite parameters beyond the capacity of the means of communication.

more so on matters beyond the sense perceived

hence speeches, dance, drama, mudra, theatricals, literature, sculpture, drawing, painting, even photo, video, cinema

yet all these are inadequate

pandit ravisankar sitarist said '' i point out to stars. they look at my finger''

the master is at a different level, the audience at some other.

sitar is his entity. with which he communicates and sitar communicates with him

yet such are inadequate.

saints that is why have chosen an entity called god with whom they can communicate heart open.

meerake prabhu
purandara vithala
sangameshwara
......are those entities self referral, best to address their feelings with. 

words fail, grammar gets shattered

poetry flows

poetry fails

song sets in
thaal accompanies

song loses sense of meaning in the raag, aalaap
it is just a flow of sound

even the tune finds it self inadequate

silence takes over

self is fulfilled with its listener the same self

what it says what is heard self knows alone, it is sure a best message.

self talking to itself within in silence finds the best way of communication
