PERSPECTIVE

 

a place of realization took place

most of the things you hold on to seems unimportant anymore

it will remind you that it takes courage to fight for something

but it will need your whole soul to admit that your at fault

while it will lead your heart to freedom

 

we are in a right place and right time

but we still have different perspective of the things said and done

I know we might paint a silly smile

turn your head up high

This is the New Old South church, where I attended one of the most amazing church services I have ever had the privilege to attend. ( any service that has Brubeck's "40 Hours" as an offeratory is gonna be great!) Built in 1875, the 246 ft. (75m) tower began to lean and had to be dismantled and rebuilt slightly shorter in 1931.

 

REALIZATION

 

April 16th, 2013: It is strange when you come to the realization that you have walked and shot on the location of a tragedy. This is only 50 yards from the location of the first explosion. I am sure the prayers of us all go towards the families of the lost and the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, but the prayers of such a vibrant and historic congregation are certain to be heard!

Know the difference between a 'guru' (teacher/preacher) and a 'gnani' (the enlightened One). Know the qualities of a true guru and a gnani in order to identify them when they come your way. The two have very different virtues. A gnani is free from anger, pride, deceit and greed. And a gnani is One who has experienced His true Soul and enables others also to do so. A true gnani is in no need of money/ disciples/respect etc... He is above all material things.

Shot 5

 

The rules have changed a little, requiring a sequence of shots.

Sometimes life shows you colors…! Sometimes it snatches everything yet Allah fulfills everything with HIS mercy. You don’t know what is snatched can be given back to you if you have faith, if it was not meant for you, you won’t get it back and if you ask for it in your most sincere prayer… miracle is nothing but a matter of second to let it happen! All we have to do is to have faith… letting your mind realize, He is the master of everything. We should have the courage to do everything for HIM… do we really can? Do we really have the courage? Do we really think about HIS orders? Do we really believe into HIS promises? Are we passing the exams? Or we are constantly failing? The most surprising thing, it’s not bothering us… Is it? These questions merely haunt our minds… Merely we get time to think about it…

 

In a late night… when no one is around me and I am trying hard to convince HIM what I want… holding the faith in HIM... If I ask myself these questions… Shall I be able to stand up and walk through the turns I am walking…?

The gardens are serene and beautifully landscaped.

Hollywood, June 23, 2007 (by klk)

Winter has been dominant for some time, after a spell of freezing still weather the wind is now picking up. Something large is brewing.

 

White slithers of snow start crawling among the boulders and rocks, dropping and swirling off the cliffs, breathing life into the mountain with ever increasing intensity and soon it will engulf the landscape in a white shroud. This is the brightest time of day but still the horizon is dark and brooding, the sun is out of sight but manages to send it's farewell with a gentle display of purple and blue shimmering before retreating for the night.

 

The ominous beauty of something furious - and it's bound for us. Later the whisper of white that is now will have turned into a rumbling roar of darkness. And I have realized that I'll still be on my way home.

The gardens are serene and beautifully landscaped.

Messe Basel - New Hall

Basel, Switzerland

Project 2004-2012, realization 2010-2013

 

Urban and entrepreneurial planning

 

The concentration of exhibition halls around the Messeplatz (Exhibition Square) is the key entrepreneurial aim of the Messe Basel leadership in its further development. Building the Messe Tower and replacing Hall 1 with a highly modern building and optimum exhibition areas were the first components in this strategy, followed by the continuing construction of new halls.

 

This concentration of exhibition centre activities is also an important urban planning matter for the development of the surrounding Kleinbasel neighbourhood, aimed at regaining outlying exhibition spaces on the present Deutsche Bahn (German Railways) area for apartments, offices and small businesses while simultaneously upgrading the Messeplatz as a focal point in Kleinbasel.

 

Necessary demolition

 

Achieving this entrepreneurial as well as urban planning aim of congegrating the Messe and at the same time retaining the important Watch and Jewellery Fair within Basel, required the replacement of two halls on the Messeplatz (Hall 1 at the front and Hall 3). These halls no longer fulfilled modern exhibition requirements in terms of ceiling heights, column spacing or load bearing capacity of the floors. It was also important that all halls be interconnected to ensure flexibility for various events, and that nearby car parking facilities should be retained.

 

Necessary construction

 

Fulfilling exhibition requirements for large volumes and uninterrupted floor areas, the New Hall is a three-storey extension of Hall 1 along the Riehenring. To provide indoor connection to all exhibition halls, the new building bridges over the Messeplatz and creates a covered public space, perhaps comparable to a railway station concourse or indoor market, realized in a modern design language. This key architectural and urban planning element defines the south end of the Messeplatz and is illuminated from above by a generous circular opening.

 

Planned for many uses and events that will take place during and between exhibitions, and featuring restaurants and shops intended for a mix of international, local, exhibition, and public visitors, we have named this new outdoor hall the City Lounge. Open at all times, the City Lounge not only defines the entrance to the fair spaces, but will be a focal point of public life on Clarastrasse (the main shopping street in Kleinbasel) and will significantly enliven the street culture around the Messeplatz. For example, during the autumn fair the partially covered hall will create a fascinating atmosphere with smaller booths and aisles open to, yet protected, from the elements.

 

City Lounge and Messeplatz

 

With the addition of the New Hall, current activities on the Messeplatz will continue, but they will take place in a space with different proportions. What was once an elongated rectangle that more or less ran into Clarastrasse without noticeable demarcation is now almost a square with clearer urban definition.

 

A new “lane” between the New Hall and existing multi-storey car park offers better access to Messeplatz for pedestrians. Connecting east to the adjacent residential area around Riehenstrasse and Peter Rot-Strasse, this “lane” is a continuation of Isteinerstrasse and creates a new east-west link which integrates the Messeplatz into the quarter. Service and supply to the New Hall will be mainly through an underground route, thus reducing truck traffic on Riehenstrasse.

 

The Messeplatz is a pedestrian and cyclist precinct. Together with the adjacent Rosentalanlage, the Messeplatz will be the main outdoor space for the many residents of the Messe district. The green belt along the Messeplatz-Wettsteinplatz link will be enhanced by more trees on Riehenstrasse to visually connect the exhibition centre to the Rosentalanlage.

 

What is an exhibition hall today?

 

Ideally, exhibition halls should be as spacious as possible, rectangular in layout, with wide spans and ceiling heights of around 10 m, in order to provide the flexibility and versatility required for exhibition purposes. In recent years, the demand for such generous spaces has further increased.

 

Taking Baselworld as a leading example of a modern international exhibition, where the halls are animated by the individual exhibitors’ stands, the goods on display and the crowds of visitors, the question of an exhibition hall architecture does not seem to be a primary demand. Architecture is only perceptible in public areas and stairways and only there can an interface with the wider public landscape of the city emerge. The best illustration of this is the round courtyard in Hall 2. Regrettably, this courtyard is only accessible during exhibitions as it is undoubtedly one of the most attractive public areas in Basel and, especially during Art Basel in June, one of the most successful urban meeting points in the whole of Switzerland. The City Lounge aims to turn the inward-looking architecture of the round courtyard towards the outside and to make it accessible all year round.

 

How do we design an exhibition hall on the outside?

 

Viewed from the outside, exhibition halls are actually nothing more than a stack of big boxes. They require very few windows and architectural distinctions are deemed as impractical restrictions on interior flexibility. The architectural results are generally composed of vast, monotonous facades of brick as in Hall 2 or glass for Hall 1. To avoid this repetitive sameness, we took a different approach for the New Hall.

 

The New Hall features three exhibition levels. The entrance level, the lowest, is at grade with the street and outdoor square, permitting a natural and casual coming-and-going. Ground floor entrances seamlessly link the City Lounge to the existing Hall 1, former Hall 3, the new event space for 2’500 spectators, and a number of shops, bars and restaurants in the foyers. The dynamic sweep of the street level facade reacts to the flows of people and corresponds to the space required at the tram stop and entrances to the exhibition centre and Event Hall. Here, large expanses of glass create the spatial transparency both necessary and appropriate in order to achieve the openness envisioned for the exhibition hall complex and the enlivening of public urban life. This vitalisation and acceptance will be crucial to the long-term success of the "Messezentrum in the city" concept.

 

Above the ground will be two exhibition floors. To avoid the “big box” effect, the two upper volumes are offset from each other as separate entities, which indeed they are! The New Hall therefore consists of three individual elements, one on top of the other, each projecting over the street in varying degrees, and allowing them to respond to different urban conditions. From each point of view – whether from the Riehenring, Messeplatz or Riehenstrasse – the New Hall offers a different perception every time and thus avoids the monotony of uniform facade lines.

 

This constant architectural variation is reinforced, paradoxically, by applying a homogeneous material (aluminum) over all exterior surfaces. The facade of articulated twisting bands strategically modulates and reduces the scale of the large exhibition volumes to its surroundings. This is not simply a decorative element but a practical means to regulate the fall of natural light on adjacent properties and to frame specific views from individual spaces, primarily the social areas above the City Lounge, towards the public life of the city.

I was ill with cancer and had lot of fear. After attending the Self realization ceremony, felt really good. At times of fear, an internal voice came saying that you are a pure Soul.The illness is still not cured completely but i am not affected by anything as much as before. I am so grateful that this light of Pure soul within me acquired through Self-Realization has helped a lot.

Is the sound of AUM divided into three

Simply because it contains three letters?

Or is the letter 'N' divided into three

because of the three lines by which it is formed?

 

So long as Unity is undisturbed,

And a graceful pleasure is thereby derived,

Why should not the water find delight

In the floral fragrance of its own rippled surface?
