Nirvana


Just one goal…that was all I had in mind. My feelings were arrested; I thought I even existed to accomplish that one goal. Everything else in the world seemed so insignificant to me. But circumstances were not favorable, I could only foresee difficulty. Yet, except ‘that’, nothing else could please me. 

While crawling through the infamous Bangalore traffic, I screamed at all the honking cars and buses, splashing my saliva on the steering wheel and windshield. I was not bothered if they could hear me or not. I hated it when other cars overtook mine. Adding to the chaos, a lady with messy hair and big butt was blocking the way to argue with somebody who hit her vehicle. 

Totally losing my temper, I yelled at her, “You mad woman, if he has bumped into your car, it is only your bloody problem! Why the hell should rest of us on the road suffer? Take your damn @#$%^* car off the road and if you want to slap him, better do that without getting in our way!” 

After the long wait, I finally reached home. Rushed into the restroom, slammed the door. “Mission Pee” accomplished. Yes, I call that a state of Nirvana!

Did you not experience such Niranava ever before?

Vaga Bond said...

a very common grave existential problem finally given the seriousness it deserves. :P in gods own country, we say of a maniac speeding driver 'thooran ulla pokka side koduthere'. I think in a good number of cases it might actually be true ! ;)

The Holy Lama said...

The wild said...

Indeed it is a state of Nirvana ,a state of ecstacy,have been in such scenarios many a time

eternalthinker said...

You should really change this template. Coz.. lots of people are using it, still more have used it and dumped, and thus its so used-to now. Don't you want to be differeent? :D

Pink Mango Tree said...

@ Pan - I am laughing out so loud at the comment in Malayalam! At times, english can't recreate the magic when translated! :)

@ The Holy Lama - Indeed a bliss! :)

@ salil nair - if u say so.. :P :P

@ The wild - Hi.. welcome to my blog! And yes, who has not gone through this state of ecstasy?! ;)

@ et - Thanks a ton for the suggestion! Some how I like the template for its side bar and also for its looks. I can include so many things out there. Even before, another blogger friend has asked me to change it as it doesn't suit the not-so-serious posts I write.
Now, I am seriously considering to change it! :) Once again, Thanks! :)

Aparna said...

Anonymous said...

LOL babe... too good....
yeah to the situation you have presented.... have been there a lot of times..... this happens mostly when i am in the midst of an imp meeting and cannot go to use the washroom... GOSH, during those times, @ Salil is so right.... it is indeed better :-P

Pink Mango Tree said...

@ sammythewizzy - glad to know that there is at least one soul from the other gender to pity us! :)

@ Aparna - appo, njan ezhuthiyathu veruthe aayilla! :) :)

@ Vidya - so, next time if the meeting goes unproductive you can blame the 'nature's call' :) Howzzat?! :P

And glad to know that there are people thinking in the same lines in the same family! ;)

Bikram said...

i have to laugh now .. thats why elders use to say ki bache ghar se jaane se pehle make sure you use the restroom... taanki aisi pareshani na ho :) he heh ehe

sorry :)

Deepak said...

Damn.. Just remembered me on such a situation returning from a college trip.
I was about to beg the bus driver to stop, because I had to execute Plan B. Then the driver stopped without me asking, because he had a plan B of his own. So I got down, experienced Nirvana, but before I got out of the psychedelia, the driver drove away with his bus.

Oh..did I say this happened at 2am? I was stranded at some godforsaken place. I was lucky enough to have my wallet. It kept me company for the next 2 hours until the first KSRTC bus came that way.

100% true story.

Ashly said...

ROFLOL...ROFLOL...ROFLOL...

Yes...you are RIGHT !!!!

Pink Mango Tree said...

@ Bikramjit - yes yes; very true! :)

@ Deepak - that was indeed one heck of an experience!

@ Captain Haddock - :) :) :)

A Simple Pendulum said...

I knew it. I knew it. After reading all these posts of yours how could I not guess your naughty mission! Also admitting that somehow in between I thought you are sitting for your DL test. ;)

Love the way you write, my dear Shalini. :) I know I have said that n number of times. Still let me say that once again.
