- Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, are dominating my life: Literature, Art and Philosophy. These passions, like great winds, have compelled me here and there, in a wayward course, over a great ocean of imagination, reaching to the very verge of the unknown. I have passion for Literature and Art because it brings pleasure - pleasure so lofty that I am willing to sacrifice material compensation just to spend long hours during the day for such pleasure. But there are two sides of the coin and such a life have been at times lonely and remote- that loneliness in which one looks over the rim of a seemingly unfathomable world. Nevertheless, it is in the union of Literature and Art that I have seen, in a mystic miniature of imagination, the prefiguring vision of the heaven described by the scriptures and poets. It might seem too deep for human life but this is what I'm living for. I also seek knowledge and truth. I wish to understand life and the universe. And I have tried to apprehend the power of Science by which reality holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved. I have now submitted such endeavor over the province of Philosophy.
