Sushant Singh Rajput's social media posts reflected a lot about his real life

Being remembered as somebody who was full of life, always smiling, shy, humble, other than the fact that he was a self-made and a brilliant actor, we celebrate Sushant's Singh Rajput's life through some pictures, which he posted on Instagram.

A poet, that he was! Sushant shared this adorable picture with this kid when he was in New York. The caption to this picture, stole browny points, though.

His Instagram page, unlike most of the celebrities', was about self musing moments - filled with some great poems, meaningful pictures and deep thoughts. He shared this picture and wrote alongside, "I am a noun in your life, only a verb in mine... [sic]"

Quoting ved mantram "Vidya Dadati Vinayam, Vinaya Dadati Paatrataam, Paatratva Dhanamaapnoti, Dhanaat Dharmam Tatah Sukham", he shared this picture and wrote, "Knowledge brings humility; from humility comes worthiness; with worthiness one attains wealth; with wealth ONE is able to perform his duties in a better way, and in performing his duties One attains happiness. Vedic mantra. PS. The India 92 World Cup jersey was gifted to me by my coach #Kiran More Sir after a good practice day at nets. #ambidextrousArchery"

Sushant was learning archery, and it was speculated that the actor might be prepping for his film.

How intelligent and multi-talented he was! Sushant Singh Rajput was into spirituality too. He posted this picture, and wrote, "Such a great morning, found this book and then found some flying time to indulge. Good morning guys. #kahlilgibran #collectedWorks #TheProphet #TheWanderer #TheEarthGods #Secretsoftgeheart #SpiritsRebellious #TheBrokenWings [sic]"

Depression is believed to be behind this step taken by the 34-year-old actor. When he posted this picture in 2019, he had captioned it saying, "Be kind, for everyone we meet is fighting a hard battle. #IanMaclaren #selftalk"

Sushant Singh Rajput was so much into Astrophysics that even his pictures had captions related to it. Well, most of them! Just like this one: "But have you ever considered how fast you’re really moving when it seems you’re not moving at all? #Fraknoi #astronomer"

Posting this picture on Instagram, considering his love for the Astro Universe, he wrote, "I dream to create an environment where kids of India and elsewhere, get 'free', improved and relevant education and great many ways to acquire any skill of choice for free. To create a structure like this, and now, could be highly possible with right intentions and some working knowledge of chaos and game theories, non-zero sum structures that bio-mimic. Any suggestion/feedback/idea for the Cause, if you have, please do share. I would be highly obliged. It's about time that we acknowledge 'convergence' that's happening all around the globe and make the youth more competent and happy 'now'. Because as they say, the more we learn, the lesser time it takes for us to learn even more. Let's begin. It's about 'time'.
Jai shiv Shambho #education #pedagogy #skills #NoCost #convergence #chaostheory #gametheory #nonzerosum #biomimic #resonance #future #exponentialCHANGE
#technologiesofthefuture #Shiva #Verb #Actions #karma #Time [sic]"

Sketching, doodling used to always make it to his timeline, of course with a philosophical caption. He had posted this art on his Instagram and captioned: "Dubito, ergo cogito, ergo sum. ("I doubt, therefore I think, I think therefore I am") - René Descartes - But when you don't doubt, you could still think, even when you don't think, you could already know, what you know is, exactly what you always were and will be. #selfmusing #waysofseeing #duality #paradoxical #pineal #Dmt #perspectives #feedbackloop #consciousness
#holographic #interpretations #dynamic #interactive #reality #illusion #parallax #3D #interdimensional #NeoDescartes [sic]"

A tremendously powerful-looking sketch of Lord Shiva, by Sushant Singh Rajput! One of his dreams was to go to Kailash and meditate. He was ardent Shiva follower.

Sushant Singh Rajput was one of the rare actors who was not afraid to take the road less travelled and explore new interests. If you have been following Sushant Singh Rajput on Instagram, over the years, you would know that the actor had been behaving quite mysteriously for the last few months. After deleting all the posts from his account, he started posting pictures of his photography skills, sketches, astrophysics, and Lord Shiva portraits, and his stargazing experiences. This particular picture, that he shared was captioned: "Picture of my memory. or Memory of my picture. [sic]"

In case you didn't know, Sushant Singh Rajput owned a telescope as well. In 2018, he had bought an expensive, Boeing 737 Fixed Base Flight Simulator too. He shared this picture and captioned: Spacetime crunch

Sushant Singh Rajput had undergone training at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)? He posted this picture from one of his training days, but with a mysterious caption, "Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is the limitation. Look with your understanding. Find out what you already know and you will see the way to fly." #richardbach #jonnathanlivingstonseagull [sic]"

Rajesh Khanna's Bawarchi was one of Sushant Singh Rajput's favourite film. "Sir Hrishikesh Mukherjee's Bawarchi with some cricket match seems to be an awesome combination for this rainy evening, [sic]" captioned Sushant to this picture. But he also added a line, which hinted a lot about his mental state, probably. "It's so simple to be happy, and it's so difficult to be simple," wrote Sushant.

Another deep and philosophical post by the late actor was this. The caption read - "When we stare at the most fundamental fabric of reality/existence, through the honest eyes of mathematics, all we see is infinity, beauty and symmetry. How immense would be the truth then, how immense would be then, that, who lives... #selfmusing #fractalGyometry #complexnumbers #juliaset #mandelbrotset #fabricofreality #selfsymmetry #iteration #life #matter #chaostheory #beautyassymmetryintruth #buddhabrot [sic]"

"Ambidextrous archer" - was one of his dreams! Sushant Singh Rajput had mentioned in this picture. "Perfection resides in the 'next' repetition. Passion lies in the 'present' one. #selfmusing Dream 37/50 Ambidextrous archer #livingmydreams #lovingmydreams," was his caption for this post.

What can we say about this picture posted by Sushant on Instagram? Read the self-explanatory caption yourself! "I love computer gaming and always wanted to learn the language behind it. So last few weeks I've been trying to learn coding and it has been an extremely exciting process to say the least and yet I'm just scratching the surface.:) A special mention to 'khan Academy' spreading a world-class and free education for all, just wow !! #coding #computerprogramming #gaming #animation #love #freeEducation #quarantinethings," was his caption for this post.

This one was one of Sushant Singh Rajput's recent post, amid lockdown. While the world was simply posting pictures and video doing household chores, flaunting their culinary skills and having long LIVE chats with fans, Sushant was busy doing what he simply loved doing. This! "They claim that the way out is to look within. Harnessing the power of Experiential technology to meditate like a superman. #yoga #emergentTech. #AI #MR #VR," read Sushant's caption.

Sushant Singh Rajput was probably repeatedly hinting at it, but nobody took notice of what the actor was going through mentally and emotionally. Today, a look at his social media posts seems to indicate his state of mind. This was his last Instagram post with his mother that drew attention to the actor mindset in his final days. In a note addressed to his late mother that he posted on June 3, the actor wrote these emotional lines: Blurred past evaporating from teardrops. Unending dreams carving an arc of smile. And a fleeting life, negotiating between the two..."

You are truly missed, Sushant!
