thus spake me ther at trichur on july 15 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------YEARS BACK SATCHI WROTE SOME THING LIKE THIS-- I WONT WRITE A SINGLE LINE ON POVERTY , EVENTHOUGH I was SHUT DOWN in A ROOM FR WEEKS WITHOUT SERVING ANY FOOD... I am opening my talk with this poets words, bcoz i think. we cant do philosophy like SOCIOLOGY-----------------------------------------------------------------I am not sure - how can i formulate my words - in a felicitation format--- rajeevans book was ist released by myself at trivandrum - giving . words and things to pg/ Then the audience was rich there( SUGATHA KUMARI . PUTHUSSERI RAMACHANDRAN, SUGATHAN,, all were there! lakshmi gupthan nairs daughter too !sorry fr the next words , those who are not aware of my non linear style of talk,,ha ha-----lakshmy now aged an happily living with family loved our suhathan), richer perhaps than here!, So tell every thing before such an audience is too tempting and i am suppressing such an(ad) venture------------------------------------------------------- About rajeevans book and his,themes i wanto speak-is . a firstly about .. conceptual rigor. then some generalities about philosophy itself.A book .on aesthetics and philosophy will have reception only in readers of a special mode. U need not expect immedeate support frm youth movements as such! ( EVEN OUR MEDEA CREW HERE WILL B AT A LOSS _ HOW TO CATCH A BY LINE ON PHILOSOPHY)Sunil here forgot to mention about the fall of kesari AT HIS CREMATION ONLY 29 PEOPLE ATTENDED( sunil has written about it in his piece in malayalam varika)Same fate . fell up on Marx. - round about 20 people!! See. . if Lenin had not made a victorious revolution in russia... Marx,s capital would have rested in peace iin a london library --------------------------------------------------so . i repeat attending a meet which is filled with talkers of celebrity status will not contribute ,,,nothing to PHILOSOPHY- THE GOOD INNOCENT SOULS will return to bed happily reminiscing. the overtly political cadences of the speeches;;( once a man while in jail. . remembered CAPITAL-- I CRIED READING IT... HE TOO WAS INNOCENT!!;;;);;;;;;;;;;;;;; No great crime, but those who are still alert and serious about their research programme , should evade pitfall becoming public intellectual/ i advice with love . rajeevan . never try to b popular! ok. poets can do that - and they should do so! WHEN EVER every EYES ARE SHUT DOWN POETS ,,,,,,------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now me too shift gear to some immediacies, this city trichur witnessed a strange protest last month when ramesh chennithala proclaimed look out notice against human right activists ( withdrew it later) . trichur staged a reception to THOSE WHO ARE PROCLAMED ALIENS BY THE STATE TERROR. ----------------------------- NOW I WANT TO RE ASSERT, EDAM MUSCUT IS MAKING AN OBLIQUE PROTEST DECLARING THE AWARD- TO B RAJEEVAN,,,,WHO WAS HARASSED BY RSS, WHO SENT LAWYER NOTICE, to him,,,--------------------------------------MARX SAID, NO THEORY CAN EXHAUST THE RICHNESS OF LIFE yes , Life with a capitalT. We all of us here rasia priyan and all are living our rich life in different ways- EATING NOT SUFFICIENTLY PERHAPS/ MATING OR NOT mating like myself and sleeping or spending sleepless nights,,, . -------------------Time to stop now, custordiasis once said after quiting his trotskyism. EITHER U MAY BECOME A MARXIST-------or a --------------revolutionary. and this too a quote frm chairman mao( this out of habit - a past still haunting me . ha ha) U HAVE TO LEARN WORKING WITH THOSE WITH WHOM U HAVE DIFFERNCES OPINION thank u-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------( slightly edited , somewhat shortened, and >REPOSITIONED too !. certain additions . and i delete MY ATTACK ON THE AUDIENCE S IQ. and sadly my own arrogance ,,,sorry amigos)
