Late night thoughts after listening to BBC Radio 3


My thoughts about Radio 3 today are summarised very well in this saying attributed to the sixteenth century Hindu mystic poet Meerabi.

I have felt the swaying of the elephant's shoulders, and now you want me to climb on a jackass? 
 Try to be serious.

 More than a thousand sacred songs - bhajans - and Hindi poems are said to have been composed by Meerabi. Header image is cover artwork from the album Ineffable Mysteries from Shpongleland by the Goan trance duo Shpongle.
