Introduction

While I was in Law School, our Law and Literature teacher had once, asked us to write a critical appreciation of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. The Rubaiyat is a collection of short poems, originally written in Persian with beautiful illustrations accompanying each poem. The Rubaiyat, as FitzGerald puts it, is a “juxtaposition of the conscious, subconscious and the unconscious”. I think, it’s a potent description of the human mind. You look into yourself; you will always know that all thoughts have a meaning. To quote Polonius, “there is a method in its madness”.

Thoughts, random as they may be, always mean something to someone.

I am of the opinion that, it would be great to pen down these thoughts, these “Signs” all around, speaking out loud, only if you are willing to “hear” and see the “method” in these.
