Who am I? #27
Either swayed by logic or by emotions, but rarely in harmony! Wood Mosaic, 14 X 18 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Vienna, Austria Most of the time, I feel myself overpowered by my own logical thoughts and emotions.

A seed under the shelter of an awakened one?! बुद्धम शरणम गच्छामि। Wood Mosaic Mural, 38 x 40 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India (Not Available) Many times, I feel myself revolving around an unending routine.

A seed, allowing the mysterious touch in its desire to sprout.

Under a spell of beautiful, but fragmented and crazy mind?! Wood Mural, 29 X 27 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India (Not Available) Mostly, I feel myself divided between the rivalry of logical thoughts and uncontrolled emotions. Both try to undermine each other and prove their superiority over each other. But there are moments when, when I am calm and centered, I can watch their games. Then I am able to see my mind, which seems to be the source of this a

An attempt to be in tune with the haiku from another world. Wood Mural, 36 x 35 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India To me, life is like a haiku from another world—short, mysterious, and beautiful. Existence is full of such haikus. In search of my real self, when I look at my own life, I see one part of me trying to be in harmony with existence's design. But at the same time, another part of me is constantly trying to improve upon existence's design by im
Who am I? #16
A Lullaby of the Unknown?

Changing Roles all the time! Wood Mural, 29 x 46 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India I have observed that I have many different identities that go on changing colors and play different roles continuously. For example, when I am with my wife, my role is totally different than when I am with my colleague. It is strange that I play different roles in different relationships. But the question is: Who am I that is playing these roles? मैं कौन हूँ? # 14 हर सम

A beautiful mystery? Or a key to the mystery? Or both? Wood Mural, 36 X 20 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India Most of the time, I am surrounded by unending logical thoughts.

But there are times when I am ruled by strong emotions of love and sharing, and I feel myself like a

Patiently Observing, Hooo am I? Wood Mural, 26 x 20 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India Many times, in the search of my real self, I stare like an owl but inwardly at my emotions and thoughts.

Stuck in the groove? Wood Mural, 25 x 24 Inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India (Not Available) As I see it, I am just a combination of some mysterious ideas. From childhood up until now, I have been given many identities or ideas about who I am. But I am unable to find out my real self. One thing is certain: in my life, my mind plays a very influential role. But it is of no real help. It goes on and on debating but never comes to a conclusion. It seems stu
Who am I? #9
Surrounded by emotions and logic? Wood Mural, 30 x 24 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India Most of the time, I am trapped between the duel of my emotions and logical thoughts. Both try to prove one's superiority over the other. It is like my left brain is competing with my right brain. But sometimes, when I am calm, I can feel something in me that is watching the whole drama of thoughts and emotions. Who is it? Is it my real self or just an illusion? मैं
Who am I? #8
A slave of my own mind? Wood Mural, 36 x 24 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India (Not Available) The human mind is very powerful and mysterious. It is very useful for our day-to-day routines. With technological advances, my life has become very comfortable, but at the same time, it seems that I have become a slave to my mind. Without asking, it goes on providing logical explanations of each thing that I hear, see, touch, smell, or taste. I am unable to ex
Who am I? #7
An innocent beast lost in the wild? Wood Mural, 41 x 38 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India When I first saw one tiny part of our galaxy in the dark sky in a village near Jaiselmer, I became speechless.

Playing and enjoying the blessings until going up in the flames! Wood Mural, 34 x 25 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India Who am I? I don't know. But I feel that I am blessed. I have so much in my life that I don't deserve. I don't know what is going on in my life. Life is short and mysterious, but beautiful and full of surprises. I am trying to live it completely until it ends. मैं कौन हूँ? #5 आग की लपटों में जाने तक जीवन का आनंद ले रहा हूं! लकड़ी मोज़े
Who am I? #4
Known, Unknown & Unknowable, Wood Mural, 27 x 24 inches, 2021 Sureel Kumar Location: Gidderbaha, Pb, India I always thought that there were only two kinds of things in the universe: known and unknown. But I was wrong. Now I feel that there is also a third part, which is the largest part, that may remain unknowable forever. The universe seems infinite. Astronomers say there are billions of galaxies in the universe. In each galaxy, there are billions of solar systems like ours
