Nature in Litreature

Many of the great literature works on nature took birth centuries ago and are still relevant. Daffodils by William Wordsworth goes
"I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils;"
He knew that we humans are just a part of this vast nature. To enjoy the beauty we have to immerse in it and he wanted to be like a cloud that sees everything and floats in the sky.

One can enjoy something only when he is calm as the white mountains. To be calm and serene it requires patience and will. To enjoy the calmness and aesthetics of nature one does not have to grow intellectual as Samuel T Coleridge, or Wordsworth or Robert Frost. He only has to see what the mother nature got to show him. He should have a mind like water which is ready to flow.


The words of Shakespeare "And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything" shows how a man can learn from nature and all has to have is a free mind.

Nature is the mother of all wisdom. They are twins bound to each other. Never does nature say a thing and wisdom another.


thank you,

    You do wrong things to nature and you'll see it turn against you. But a man wise man doesn't want to make trouble to anyone.
    So.. my point is,there are times when "nature say a thing and wisdom another".

      wise is different to from knowledge. Wisdom. It's being aware of something, and having information. Knowledge is really about facts and ideas that we acquire through study, research, investigation, observation, or experience. Wisdom is the ability to discern and judge which aspects of that knowledge are true, right, lasting, and applicable to your life. Nature does reflect the actions of humans. And wise people have their own way to get things done. No cooperation movement, satyagraha, did no harm at sight but was more powerful than any violence. Thus nature is coinciding with wisdom and not knowledge

ഒരു കുളിർമഴ

ഭാരമേറിയൊരു മനുസ്സുമായാണ് കഴിഞ്ഞ കുറെ നാളുകളായി അയാൾ എണീറ്റിരുന്നത്. അന്ന് പള്ളിയിൽ  വെച്ചു അവളെ ആദ്യമായി കണ്ടപ്പോൾ തോന്നാതിരുന്നത് പിന്നീടെപ്പോഴോ എന്തിനോ വേണ്ടി തോന്നി. ഉറക്കപ്പിച്ചിലിരുന്ന ഒരു ക്ലാസ്സ്മുറിയിൽ കൂട്ടുകാരനോട് പറഞ്ഞൊരു കളിവാക്കിൽ നിന്നാണോ, അതോ ഇതിനെല്ലാമപ്പുറം വിധിയുടെ നിയോഗമാണോ, അതോ തനിക്കു എവിടെയെങ്കിലും വീഴ്ച പറ്റിയതോ. എത്രയൊക്കെ വീഴരുതെന്ന് ഓർത്താലും അതിലേക്ക് ആകർഷിക്കുന്ന മായികമായ ഒരു സൗന്ദര്യം ഈ പ്രണയത്തിനുണ്ടായിരിക്കാം. ഒരിക്കൽ പോലും സംസാരിക്കാതെ എങ്ങനെ ഇത്രെയേറെ ആകർഷിക്കപ്പെട്ടു എന്നു അയാൾ തന്നോട് തന്നെ ചോദിച്ചുകൊണ്ടിരുന്നു. പെട്ടന്നാണ് അയാളുടെ മുമ്പിൽ നിന്നിരുന്ന ക്ലർക്കിനെ അയാൾ ശ്രെദ്ധിച്ചത്. അയാൾ കുറേനേരമായി അവിടെത്തന്നെ നിൽപ്പാണ്. താനാണ് അയാളെ ഒരു ഫയൽ എടുക്കാൻ അയച്ചത്‌. അപ്പോൾ  കുറെ നേരമായി താൻ ചിന്തകളിൽ മറഞ്ഞിട്ടു. താൻ അപ്പോൾ ഒരുപാട് കാലം പിന്നിൽ നിന്നാണ് ചിന്തിക്കുന്നത്. ഈ വേദനകൾ തൻറെ കോളേജ് ജീവിതകാലത്തെയാണെന്നു അയാൾക്കു അറിയാമായിരുന്നു. അയാൾ ഒരു ദീര്ഘനിശ്വാസത്തോടെ ആ ഫയലുകൾ മേടിച്ചുവെച്ചു. ഒരു തരത്തിൽ പറഞ്ഞാൽ ഈ ജീവിതമൊരു കുരിശിന്റെ വഴി പോലെയാണെന്ന് അയാ

Parting ways

 "What would you say if I ask you out?" asked him. The question startled her mildly, for she always thought of him as her friend. It was quite unusual of him to ask, she thought.  It was a beautiful day in the park. The sky was blue and the sun shone brightly. Children were playing at distance. They were walking along the pavement, looking at the kids playing.  "Hey," he called her.  "Well hypothetically, I might not create a scene, but I don't want a relationship now." Said she.  It's what he expected all along. For he never wanted to upset her. After all, it's only a miracle if a girl in this world would go out with me, he thought.  She thought, it' s been over a year since I met him. We had a good time. Now he's asking all the wrong questions. He asked few questions. That's what I liked about him.  He came to her asking for a donation to help the homeless while they were in College. A guy like that, smart, charming and witty. He

Life is Not an Easy Business

The Strange Case Of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a scientific novella by R L Stevenson which describes a strange thing that a man has dual personalities and that can be choked out by medicine. When i first read the book i find it quite absurd. But later i was astonished to see how one of my friends connected it to our current lives. Dr Jekyll was a talented medical practitioner. When he tried one of his portions he changed to a stout, ugly man who was name Hyde. Jekyll was a man with values and good at heart. But Hyde had a personality as ugly as he was. my friend connected it to the way we act in social media and life. Today in social media we try to make a perfect man, which we want ourselves to be. We act as intellectuals who are ready to change the humankind. But we fail to be the same in life. What we pose in front of the society is what we want to be and not what we are. Seldom the society is reluctant to accept us how we are despite how good you are. A black dot on a white board
