The state of no mind (無心: Japanese mushin) is a mind not fixed or fixated on one thing, and thus open to all things. In this place and space, all things are potential and all things are possible! Here I write about writing. For my policy related writing go to https://medium.com/@ramganeshk

Creeper at the MetroPlus Theatre Fest in Chennai
Creeper creeps to Chennai, we perform on August 9th, 7.30 p.m at Sir Mutha Venkata Subba Rao Concert Hall, Harrington Road.

Watched the play a few times as you know :) and the vikram/betaal bit did more than just the sutradhaar and story telling. Couldn't really identify with the first half of the play, but the cyclical format in the second half appealed a lot.
I felt the resonance of Vikram and Betaal, the imagery associated with these characters in hindu minds, in the second half of the play where I saw two people, dead and alive interchangeably, carrying each other. Wonderful I thought, the dead but provoking burdens that they carried, ghosts even.
Cheers and all the best for the hindu festival Pallavi
