The Blue Lagoon



No, I am not talking about the movie here or the eroticism. Time and again this word keeps hounding me; one fine day, my ever analytical mind went on a spree of finding the appeal behind the word. After a moment, the uncanny connection hit me. Don’t worry, I didn’t go about running madly around the streets like Archimedes with this eureka moment! ;) I guess, blue lagoon defines me in more ways than one; blue is the most consistent in my list of favourite colours, blue lagoon is my favourite mocktail, I get blues often, I can gaze endlessly at the blue sky or the ocean. Blue is vastness and that is what I aim at- vastness of being; though at one point my mind misinterpreted it as vastness of waist and that left me in trouble! :P

By definition, Lagoons are shallow, often elongated bodies of water separated from a larger body of water by a shallow or exposed shoal, coral reef, or similar feature. In my understanding, it is an isolated water body amidst huge volumes of water thinking itself to be separate from it. Aren’t we, as humans just like that? We think ourselves as isolated personalities in the ocean of humanity wherein we are always connected to the Source. Our mental blocks i.e. reef makes us feel separate from wholeness of the Being. Remove those barriers and see that you are the Ocean yourself! So by that means too Blue Lagoon defines my reality and my journey! It after all had a hidden meaning! Unintended symbolism! I think I should apply for a consultant job- by such logic, main kisi ko bhi lapet sakti hoon...haha J


May the blues never reach you; just gaze away!

Love Always!
