बात जब अंतःप्रेरणा की आती है, जब बात इस gut feeling यानी अंदरूनी अहसास की आती है कि कोई गाना सही है या नहीं, तो आप शब्दों और तर्कों में उलझ कर भटक सकते हैं। संगीत स्कूल जाना गलत नहीं है, लेकिन संगीत सीखने का एक हिस्सा यह भी होना चाहिए कि आप उस सारी सीख को भूल सकें।

When it comes down to intuition, when it comes down to gut feelings about whether a song is right, you can get distracted with words, rationalization. There's nothing wrong with music school, but part of music school has to be the ability to forget all of it, too.

लोग अब ज़्यादा प्रयोग कर रहे हैं। मैं ऐसे कॉर्ड्स (संगीत के सुर) सुन रहा हूँ जो वाकई पहले कभी रेडियो पर नहीं सुनाई देते थे। मुझे यह बात बहुत पसंद आती है। जब मैं अपने बच्चों के स्कूल जाता हूँ और देखता हूँ कि बच्चे बैंड में बजा रहे हैं, तो यह भविष्य की एक बेहतरीन झलक देता है।

मैंने एक पेशेवर दार्शनिक बनने के उद्देश्य से विश्वविद्यालय में दर्शनशास्त्र पढ़ने का फैसला किया। काफी अस्थिर स्वभाव का होने के कारण, कुछ समय के लिए मुझे एक पेशेवर दार्शनिक बनने के बारे में संदेह हुआ, लेकिन मेरे दो शिक्षकों, एजेक्विएल डी ओलासो और जुआन रोड्रिग्ज लारेटा के उदाहरण ने मेरे मूल निर्णय को पक्का कर दिया।

I decided to do philosophy at university, with a view to becoming a professional philosopher.

मैं खुद को किसी बारूदी सुरंग या तालिबान का शिकार नहीं मानता; मैं अज्ञानता और नफरत का शिकार हुआ था। जब लोग ऐसी हरकतें करते हैं, तो वे और ज्यादा नफरत पैदा करना चाहते हैं। इसका मुकाबला प्यार और शिक्षा से कीजिए।

I don't see myself as being injured by a landmine or the Taliban; I was injured by ignorance and hatred. When people do these things, they want to create more hatred. Fight it with love and education.

मेरा जन्म फिलाडेल्फिया के बाहर लोअर मेरियन नामक एक उपनगर में हुआ था। पढ़ाई से कई बार ब्रेक लेने के बाद, मैंने अभी-अभी एनवाईयू (NYU) से आर्ट हिस्ट्री में बीए की डिग्री प्राप्त की है। शुरू में मेरा झुकाव गायन की तरफ था। संगीत नाटकों में भाग लेने के साधन के रूप में अभिनय अपने आप उसमें से निकल आया।

किशोर उम्र में मैं बस बाहर जाकर ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा समय खेलना चाहता था, ज़िंदगी का आनंद लेना चाहता था और मज़े करना चाहता था। मेरा मन पढ़ाई में ज़्यादा नहीं लगता था। आज जब मैं पीछे मुड़कर देखता हूँ, तो सोचता हूँ कि काश मैंने पढ़ाई में थोड़ा और वक़्त बिताया होता और उसका ज़्यादा आनंद लिया होता। यह हर किसी के लिए नहीं होता और मुझे स्कूल जाना और पढ़ाई करना उतना पसंद नहीं था—कुछ चीज़ें अच्छी लगती थीं लेकिन कुछ नहीं। मेरा ध्यान ज़्यादा देर तक टिकता नहीं था।

All I wanted to do while I was a teenager was go out and play most of the time and just enjoy life and have fun. I wasn't big into school, you know, I look back now and wish I would have spent more time studying and enjoyed it more. It's not for everyone and I didn't enjoy it that much like going to school and studying - some stuff I did but some of it I didn't. My attention span wasn't there.

Back-to-School Chats, Advice from Mothers to Their Daughters.

मुझे नहीं लगता कि मैंने कभी तय किया था कि मैं एक कलाकार बनूँगा। मैं कॉलेज सिर्फ यह सीखने गया था कि सोचा कैसे जाता है और कला को कैसे देखा जाता है। अंत में, मैंने कला के बारे में एक अधिक परिष्कृत गलतफहमी विकसित कर ली।

मैंने कई सालों तक संस्कृत की पढ़ाई की है, और अपनी पीएचडी का सारा कोर्सवर्क पूरा कर चुका हूँ। और आज अमेरिकी योग में जो कुछ भी चल रहा है, उसमें से ज़्यादातर बस मनगढ़ंत चीज़ें हैं। यहाँ तक कि समझदार और अच्छे लोग भी—जैसे पश्चिमी चिकित्सक, योग थेरेपिस्ट और अन्य स्वास्थ्यकर्मी—जिन्हें आसन पसंद हैं, वे बस यह कहते हैं, "चलो मिलकर योग थेरेपी जैसी कोई चीज़ बना लेते हैं।"

आज इस उम्र में, अपनी बीस साल की बेटी के साथ यह देखकर मुझे अचरज होता है कि उसकी पीढ़ी के बच्चों को ब्लैक एंड व्हाइट फिल्में देखना पसंद नहीं है। मैं समझ सकता हूँ कि उन्होंने मूक फिल्मों से तौबा कर ली, लेकिन ब्लैक एंड व्हाइट से भी? इसलिए अब अकादमिक जगत में फिल्मों को पढ़ाना पड़ता है क्योंकि लोग नहीं जानते कि उन्हें कैसे देखा जाए, उनकी सराहना कैसे की जाए।

I am astounded at my age with a 20-year-old daughter to discover that kids of her generation don't want to watch black and white movies.

मुझे जैज़ को होम वर्क या असाइनमेंट में बदलने का विचार बिल्कुल पसंद नहीं है। मैं कभी भी ऐसा कोई क्विज़ नहीं रखूँगा जिसमें पूछा जाए, "हॉट फाइव में क्लेरिनेटीस्ट (klarinetist) कौन था?" मुझे इसकी परवाह नहीं है। अगर आपको क्लेरिनेट वादक पसंद है, तो आप खुद जान जाएंगे कि वह कौन है।

मुझे लगता है कि देश में एक खेल संस्कृति का होना बहुत ज़रूरी है। अगर स्कूलों में खेल को पढ़ाई का हिस्सा बनाया जाए और सही तरीके से बढ़ावा दिया जाए—जैसा कि महाराष्ट्र और हरियाणा की सरकारों ने खेल के लिए अंक देकर और अच्छे पदों पर नौकरियां सुनिश्चित करके किया है—तो हालात बदल सकते हैं।
