🎭 Starring:
👉 Eyear aka Kannar – The Watcher Supreme
👉 Perumal oru Sogamal – The Sentimental Sanyasi
🍿 Prologue: One Seeks More, the Other Lets Go
But Both Can’t Sit Still
They both claim to be seekers:
One seeks returns.
The other seeks release.
Both are terrified of stillness.
One is afraid of not growing. The other is afraid of being forgotten.
And Krishna, somewhere between their inboxes and incense holders, is still waiting to be heard.
📊 Scene: Eyear's Deep Dive into Moksha Metrics
Eyear doesn’t meditate. He monitors.
He builds a Moksha Readiness Index:
🧘♂️ Sleep Quality: 78%
📉 Emotional Volatility: Trending downward
📅 Liberation ETA: 17.3 years (assuming 7% CAGR)
He invests in:
Yoga REITs (Real Estate for Inner Tranquility)
Soul ETFs (Emotionally Transcendent Funds)
Detachment Bonds (Low yield, high spiritual payoff)
He whispers:
“வறவற இல்லனுக்கு சுகம்” “One more property in Rishikesh. Then peace.”
🍃 Scene: Sogamal’s Monastic Morning (Instagram Reel #147)
Sogamal wakes up to birdsong… played from his nature sounds playlist.
He sips tea, stares at the sunrise, and sighs:
“I am beyond ownership. Except… for this handcrafted Japanese teacup.”
He then posts: 📸 “Letting go is the new holding on.” 💬 #UnfollowYourEgo #SpiritualButBranded
“விடவிட துறவிக்கு சுகம்” “Every time I let go, my following grows.”
🤖 Anecdote: Their Joint Startup – KarmaLedger™
One night, over spiced chamomile and spreadsheets, they launched:
KarmaLedger™ – The world’s first app to track your soul’s credit score.
Features include:
Auto-categorized sins by raga
Live dashboard of detachment
Alerts: “You’ve earned 3 moksha points! Don’t tweet about it.”
They made $42K in seed funding from people who never meditated.
Krishna sighed. Again.
📜 Bhagavad Gita Pings the Inbox
Right when Sogamal considers monetizing his mantra chanting, And Eyear opens his “7 Habits of Highly Enlightened Hustlers” newsletter…
POP-UP:
“काम एष क्रोध एष रजोगुणसमुद्भवः।” (Gita 3.37) Desire is born of passion. It consumes everything in its path.
“इन्द्रियाणि मनो बुद्धिरस्याधिष्ठानमुच्यते। एतैर्विमोहयत्येष ज्ञानमावृत्य देहिनम्॥” (Gita 3.40) Desire nests in the senses, intellect, and mind. It fogs your inner compass.
Translation?
Desire wears a suit and a robe. It sells itself as "purpose." It whispers, “Just one more…”
Krishna (from cloud storage): “You can’t uninstall this app. But you can learn to stop clicking.”
💡 Scene: The Temple That Wasn't
They travel to a remote shrine for silence. Eyear carries a biometric aarti tracker. Sogamal brings a drone to capture “authentic solitude.”
In the sanctum sanctorum, both light candles— the kind seen in stock trading apps. Green for gains. Red for regrets.
They leave blessed… …and post about it with hashtags.
📉 The Closing Bell (Not from NYSE, but Kurukshetra)
Desire isn’t evil. But if left unexamined, it shape-shifts:
🧠 In Eyear: into ambition that outgrows joy.
💔 In Sogamal: into detachment that demands attention.
The householder's trap is in never feeling full. The renunciate's trap is in never truly letting go.
Krishna doesn’t say stop desiring. He says see it, transcend it, don’t let it steer you.
Krishna's Financial Advice
“तस्मात्त्वमिन्द्रियाण्यादौ नियम्य भरतर्षभ। पाप्मानं प्रजहि ह्येनं ज्ञानविज्ञाननाशनम्॥” (Gita 3.41) Therefore, O Arjuna, master your senses first, and destroy this enemy called desire — destroyer of wisdom and realization.
Translation for modern minds?
Uninstall one investment app.
Cancel one subscription.
Take one breath without scanning notifications.
Or in Eye”ar’s language: “Audit your soul’s balance sheet.”
🪔 Final Thought
So whether you're:
Optimizing inner peace with KPIs like Eyear, or
Romanticizing surrender with ring lights like Sogamal…
Ask yourself:
🕉️ Is your peace performative? 🧘♀️ Are you renouncing or just rebranding? 📈 Are you hoarding spreadsheets or hashtags?
And please— For your soul’s sake, for Krishna’s bandwidth, don’t buy another meditation candle with built-in Bluetooth.
