In Praise of Unsearchable Things !!

I just searched for best Urdu Poetry of Ghalib. They all were superb but I found these 9 extra ordinary. You can find them at the End.

I am not Muslim and have not read Quran. Neither Bhagwat Geeta.

But I can spot a real teacher instantly. In Hindi it is called Darshan Shastra. In Urdu I think the nearest to it is Sufi poets.

This is just cut copy paste. But that’s what I talk about. Weather it is AI slop or plagiarized, A robot cannot be the best or even mediocre judge of that.

If search engines keep on investing so much time, energy and resources in AI being the judge of relevancy for a query, The person behind the query will never be free of queries. Are you catching my point.

Why?

A teacher’s job is not to answer the question but to end the questioner.

Search Engine ranks stuff conforming to their ideals. So real stuff will never and never was appearing in it. SEO just for example.

It would have to be Ad and that too non profit or loss making Ad. Just apply common sense. Why would anyone give right SEO advice if it works. Don’t debate. I mean subjectively.

That’s what I have been doing. If even little bit of Business ethics is artificially infused in Algorithm And even on spending fortune my SEO endeavors helped only shitty site recognized by Algorithm on niches like Gun safety, Road Safety, Environment, Social commentary, Exotic Pets then I was running Ads for them or may be saving them from repercussion of carelessly selling shitty Products.

One of my site was Safelelo.com. Funny right ? Or even adult sounding. It was filled with content I ordered from Textbroker. Not very helpful but I was just starting.

The most important metric that is Page rank was open in those years. I bought few domains PR3 PR4 etc, Respectable SEOs must be aware of the different IP different Hosting technique. Didn’t even bothered to fill it with comprehensible stuff, just some gibberish self typed gun related stuff and linked from it using desired keywords. And it was ranking.

Any way of all it didn’t deserved to be deindexed through manual action.

Why I am telling you this. Because earlier I ranked it on another domain bestcargunsafereviews I don’t remember exactly. The moment I tried to add a pinch of human element to it Crony Capitalism Kicked it out.

So you see I don’t over react when it comes to content on the search engines. In 19th century in England News paper use to do that with any kind of Art.

Popular opinion was given priority to promote any kind of Art. But Art is not a business of demand and supply. Artist must never try to make his Art popular.

In Oscar Wilde view Healthy Art has two qualities-

1.) Artist recognizes the beauty of material used and use it to produce aesthetic effect. For ex Alphabets, PC, Electricity, Internet etc.

2.) The choice of the subject is conditioned by the temperament of the Artist. For ex The Black Whole and K-rap.

Those who got famous didn’t do so by appealing to public’s taste. Instead they worked hard to create a temperament of receptivity in public which public can themselves cultivate by being more civilized.

Where was I ?

Yes Search Engines. Search engines follows the same thing. Popular opinion. That makes making money online extremely demoralizing as offline.

Not demoralizing in the sense earning bread and butter. That can be done without even conscious effort. But the profession of writing for example.

Why it’s called blog(Web log) ? Because its a diary. You don’t want a diary to conform to any syntax or schemas even if the primary purpose is not commercial. Ok lets rephrase. You don’t want a Blog, Vlog to conform if basic wants are being fulfilled.

So there are two conflicting interest.

1.) Livelihood.

2.) Passion.

I was never a voluminous writer. In school Exams with essay part weather Hindi or English I never got more than 40 out of 100. In 12th Board Hindi though I got distinction with 5 days study in the whole year. Reason I will tell later.

I didn’t started IM or Banana Poetry out of passion. My passion was Banana Chips, Communication, Travel, Sniping and Friendship. (Gay Right?) And also deep blah blah. Not music. Though I was surprised I could do Bit of Dance, PJs and a Bit of mimicry as well. Also sketching. (Bragging)

I just wanted an alternative source of income to leave the dreadful drudgery of Anti PC.

It is said that Of the three IQ, EQ, SQ.

SQ is greatest because it is not biological. EQ will help manage emotions. IQ organize your thoughts. But SQ is a choice to know yourself.

Emotions supersedes thought. Thought is always a product of emotion. But if you know yourself you know where your emotions are coming from.

So what I am trying to say is Starting anything without knowing yourself will make you a slave.

To know yourself is not to know your hobbies or strengths or weaknesses. Everybody knows or are motivated enough to know that. It is to know your dark reality. Nobody has a white reality before knowing.

So Where was I ?

Yes Search Engines- I read one book The Master and his Emissary by Ian Mc Gilchrist with very intense focus. Left hemisphere talk is very convincing largely because it has made itself so. It cut out anything that doesn’t fit with its model. So there is a series of Hall of Mirror effect. It get reflected back to what I know about and what I know about.  It undercuts and Ironize things that may have led it out of it. It doesn’t know what it doesn’t know.

He says the end point of rationality is to show the limits to rationality. Robots or search Engines are 100 percent rational. It can achieve great things but beyond the end point it just becomes its own enemy. I admire search engines and AI however archaic they are just like I admire Media of all kind. But once reaching full capacity it will not eliminate user’s query. It will amplify it.

Online content is some what a way to realize individual being though not fully. And I also agree facts will always be facts. And with social media all dot coms have been integrated to limited number of sites.

If there is anything left is dot me where facts are not facts. Let me rephrase- Facts are not just Facts. Multimedia are not just for likes or profit.

For ex- I am writing this at 7 am in the morning while also enjoying licking Lime Pickle of brand Ruchi Magic which means Magic of Interest, modicum or otherwise.

As I have iterated before also that it is always the Left that is Shitified. Not very hard to understand Right?

But the best or rather unappalling version for humans is Gold because it have following properties-

1.) It do not stink and last forever.

2.) It is only useful for humans.

I call it Private Blog network (PBN). Because there is no need for Algorithms to take notice of them. Whoever stumble upon Gold must be an Ape to not accept it.

Reason for Distinction in Hindi and not English- I can’t say. All I know is I wrote a lot but rote very little. Just opposite in English.

1.
तेरे वादे पर जिये हम, तो यह जान, झूठ जाना,
कि ख़ुशी से मर न जाते, अगर एतबार होता।

I lived on the strength of your promise — know this, it was a lie;
For had I truly believed you, I would have died of joy.

2.
न था कुछ तो ख़ुदा था, कुछ न होता तो ख़ुदा होता,
डुबोया मुझ को होने ने, न होता मैं तो क्या होता।

When nothing existed, there was God; even if nothing were, He would still be.
It is my being that drowned me — had I not existed, what would I be?

3.
देके ख़त मुँह देखता है नामाबर,
कुछ तो पैग़ाम-ए-ज़बानी और है।

The messenger hands me the letter but watches my face—
There must be some unspoken message as well.

4.
ख़ुद को मनवाने का मुझको भी हुनर आता है,
मैं वह क़तरा हूँ, समंदर मेरे घर आता है।

I too know the art of earning respect;
I am that drop for whom the ocean itself comes home.

5.
इस सादगी पे कौन न मर जाए ऐ ख़ुदा,
लड़ते हैं और हाथ में तलवार भी नहीं।

O God, who would not die for such innocence?
She quarrels—and yet, there is no sword in her hand.

6.
कहाँ मयख़ाने का दरवाज़ा ‘ग़ालिब’ और कहाँ वाइज़,
पर इतना जानते हैं कल वो जाता था कि हम निकले।

The tavern’s door, Ghalib—and the preacher’s path—so far apart!
Yet all I know is: as I stepped out yesterday, he was going in.

7.
हैं और भी दुनिया में सुख़नवर बहुत अच्छे,
कहते हैं कि ‘ग़ालिब’ का है अंदाज़-ए-बयाँ और।

There are many fine poets in this world,
But they say—Ghalib’s style of expression is something apart.

8.
बस कि दुश्वार है हर काम का आसाँ होना,
आदमी को भी मयस्सर नहीं इंसाँ होना।

Indeed, it is hard for every task to become easy—
Even a man can hardly manage to become truly human.

9.
क़ासिद के आते-आते ख़त इक और लिख रखूँ,
मैं जानता हूँ जो वो लिखेंगे जवाब में।

Before the messenger returns, I’ll write another letter—
I already know what she’ll say in reply.
