As architects, I think, we have the right to _design experiences_ that may necessarily not be targeting any measurable (or immediate) parameters of life or efficiency or whatever imagination of demands mean, but it means to always have a notion of beyond.

In that sense, design may address universal experiences (as an overall approach to creation, since I prefer to believe that a person cannot become isolated or hardened to his/her own beliefs) and offer, in the end, innumerable opportunities to feel a person at home. 

Therefore, what are such universal experiences? It would mean that this is an action of discovery and there are limitless 'forms of spatial organizations' that can convey/ express this idea or a concern. 

An architect ought not to be guilty or feel shameful if a form appears completely weird but it contains universal experiences of home coming. 

The experience is the start point, middle, end and complete.

Times are such, that even above approach is demanded to be articulated to utmost detail. Frustrating of course, since as a phenomenon, we are beyond any fixed notions and hence we can consider ourselves to bask in this ambiguous terrain! म्हणजे उगाचच बाऊ करण्याची गरज असू नये...आणि कुणी केल जरी बाऊ, तरी ते दुर्लक्ष करणे!

This has repercussions of course, on our lives. There is a general confusion regarding that one always ought to remain preoccupied trying to produce or fix something! Personally, i hate this stance, but to resist the urge of not producing anything also comes with its own complications! 

There is also a confusion about speed, multitasking, urgency, explicitness, deterministic products, efficiency, articulation, logic and a couple of other things. Well, I think one can't be held responsible for fixing the confusion. Clarity is for the self, not to prove anything.

Perhaps the approach would be to just let things be as they are and not bother about maths of life, as in where will all our steps lead to and so forth...or should 1+2 must always be 3 (even in our imagination?!)...
