My Perceptions...

A Great Exit

2011-10-09T15:40:00.000+05:30

A while ago, I came to know the death of an iconic man whosegenius gifted us jaw dropping gadgets. Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple is nowno more physically in this world, but he will always been remembered for hislandmark children-iPhone, iPad, iPod and many more. He will be missed forunimagined imagination he showed in his job. All this post death respectfulcondolence is a must part of each great personality who gifted the worldthrough their genius. Their lives aremarked with a great exit, like we all know what happened with Steve a coupledays before his death.

A friend of mine got a SMS early morning stating the deathof Steve Jobs. He was not aware Steve and his jobs. After reading some news articles, he said, “I don’t know whohe was, but I feel uneasiness for something. It may be not for his death butfor our death.” It was not so easy for me as well to understand what he meant. Hewas right, do we think about our exit from this world? Have you ever thoughtwho will be missing your deeds after your death? Will you leave a heap ofmemories and gifts that will be cherished by your family, society, country andthe world?

Once you learn how to die, you will learn how to live.

The great personalities from Mahatma Gandhi to Nelson Mandela,from Swami Vivekananda to Einstein, their lives give a valuable lesson: live fora great cause and plan your life for success of the cause. When you live yourlife, plan how to live, deliver yourself before the world and exit the world.Here, in this world of immortality, your end is more important than your entry.Your birth is no longer considered to make you remembered even after yourdeath. Your life will be counted for what have you done during the period youspent on earth.

People are respected for their great tasks no matter whetherthey do it for themselves or for others. Many individual sports players playedfor their whole life. They played for their immense desire to play and enjoythe game, and they conquered greatest heights of success in their field. Somepeople dedicated their life for the sake of country and society. Theircontribution finally caused some great inspiration, dreams and positive lifelessons. This is the essence of great life.

The following ancient Sanskrit saying précises the greattruth of living a great life:

“When you were born,you cried while the world rejoiced. Live your life in such a way that when youdie, the world cries while you rejoice.”

Just Do Eat

2011-09-11T00:41:00.000+05:30

In life,everyone is bound to follow some values. The values may differ from one personto another, but we all are bound to a single universal principle. This is thediscipline that nature has blessed us, and we all are proud to follow thisheart filing rule- JUST DO EAT.

The momentyou stepped into this world, you busted out loudly not for your mom but for thefood. You just wanted somebody to help you filling your three inches stomach.From that day to the present moment, you are running, talking, toiling,fighting, and lying for the same noble reason knowingly or unknowingly. This runwill go on for the rest of your life. Our happiest moment of every day is whenwe have stomach full tasty food at right time, right place and with rightpeople. Off course, having good company while having our lunch, dinner or evenbreakfast is as important as the quality and variety of the food we are goingto put into our baggage. Sometimes these things over take the food, as weexperience this while having a cup of tea on a small road side stall with ournear-dear friends, a late night Maggie with a hungry roommate and a smallcupcake from the delicate hands of your cute baby.

We are bornto eat, treat and greet. When we are happy, we wish to eat, then we give treatsto others who are exceedingly happy to eat with us; when we all are happy toeat together, we greet each other for the treat we made memorable. These get-togethersand parties remain forever in our memory as a token of our unity for eating andour loyalty to the JUST DO EAT policy. I feel myself very lucky to have manyeating loving people. We love to eat foods with different tastes and atdifferent places. The Indian mythology focuses the importance of healthy food fornot only healthy body but also healthy mind and character. Hence, we have nowmany reasons to eat, celebrate, and throw treats. Just go and eat.

Question Mark

2011-06-25T15:57:00.001+05:30

In the world of dreams and imagination, you live with a universal thread that shadows your life inside out. Your aspirant soul is never tired of waiting. No matter where you are, how you feel now, how long you have walked or achieved greatest crowns in the world you still keep waiting, waiting and waiting…

Do you believe in Angels? Do you believe in God-omniscient, omnipresence and omnipotence? Do you believe in the definite end of this world? Would you support a national cause till your death? Will you hang your loved one for transgression?

Can you be sure if what you do, think and speak will go in right direction? Will you be able to serve the desired goal with pure heart and intellect?

If you are still busy in finding answers to these questions, you must have be ready with a contemplated answer for a dominant question-Do you believe in yourself?

Empty Days...Empty Days..

2011-06-16T22:15:00.002+05:30

Vacuous time, barren flow and the empty days,

Yesterday, today and yet another day,

Idly passing seamless countless nights and days,

Sliding through the slippery vacant way.

Deadly sound from the dark beating,

Drawing sketches with lessen colours,

Endless seconds with the loud clicking,

Shattered tower and standing pillars.

Snowy the way spread everywhere,

Leading no one towards nowhere,

Across the sea white air smelling,

Discovering the golden bay rarely reaching.

Frivolously Asked Questions

2011-01-26T18:21:00.001+05:30

Questions are unquestioned part of our mysterious life. We face questions that insist us to stop, think and answer. Mostly, we try to answer anyhow some questions, avoid them or simply reject the questions for not making any sense. In your day-today’s life, people put many simple, short and objective questions in front of you. It isn’t necessary that every time you face a question you are in problem. Some questions are just meant to be asked, and you are not supposed to answer them as if you are writing a test paper. Some questions carry the answers themselves. People ask questions even when they know the answer, people argue with themselves, and expect someone else to participate in that futile dialogue.

In this blog post, I will be dealing with two most common questions we face every day. We understand FAQs are meant to help you by providing useful information, but the following questions put you in dilemma.

? What’s up? :- These two irritating words we hear hundreds of times in a day. Almost 98% people we meet include ‘What’s up?’ in their greeting. Experts say that ‘What’s up?’ stands for many questions- How are you? How you doing your things? What are you doing? What plans you have in mind? How things are going at your side? etc. They may be your friends, colleagues, neighbors, or the shopkeeper from whom you buy daily news paper. They simply greet you-Hello, Hi! Or Good morning! How are you?, and put that useless phrase in a typical tone. The way people pronounce the phrase ‘what’s up’ indicates that your answer is not expected or not worth to be mentioned, or even if you reply it won’t be considerable. Isn’t it Amazing? I think, it’s amazing because you are surrounded by people who just show their interest in you as if they are doing a charity.

This might have happened to you when you enter in your office. Your colleague or manager passes through you by chance, and he throws a scrappy line upon you- Hi! What’s up? You turn back with a big smile on you face to tell what happened this weekend, but you can hardly see anyone standing there to hear your reply. This is just ridiculous! The question remains how to answer “What’s up?” and how to get rid from this irritating phrase I suggest you to follow my trick. Somebody once asked me what’s up, and I just looked up and said- its sky! ;) It works, believe me.

? What’s next? :- Did you say ‘next’? Or did you ask what will be Future? This is another two wordy questions with a lengthy, bold and highlighted question mark that leaves us with blank mind and bare handed in any situation. You never know what’s going to be your future. The phrase ‘What’s next?’ comes to your mind frequently, for instance, when you finish a life taking test, after you proposed your dream-girl, when you came out facing a lengthy interview or when you start brawl with a cracking slap. All these times you never know what will at the next moment. Thousands of thoughts may come into your mind.

The interviewer never knows who will be the next candidate to whom he will interview when he says ‘Next!’ in authorizing attitude. The next candidate can be replaced to the interviewer. You may predict the result of a cricket match, but you can’t tell what’s going to be on next bowl, can you?

Since you have just done with reading/skimming or jumping my write up, I can’t help asking you what’s up? ;)

Social Networking Vs. Relationship

2010-09-29T19:05:00.006+05:30

Here we learn Communicate

Here we learn to Contradict

Here we learn to Debate

Here we practice Co-ordinate

Here on this earth, everywhere, at all the times….in all the ways…..

We learn to LIVE!

While we spend a long time with people around us, we don’t recognize that we are bound with the Society. But spending a very short moment gives an unbearable and uneasy experience of loneliness. In fact, we are trapped into this labyrinth of varied relationships and become fond of it.

Do you know why a big part of the world’s population comes under the category of Stressed People? The most remarkable common factor among these people is their failure in communication or in relationship. Now, I believe that when we are alone, spending time without any communication we become introvert. Mostly, a lonely person with lot of thoughts starts talking himself or herself. Just like the famous characters of Shakespearean plays-Hamlet and King Lear. These are ultimate models of self communicating human beings. Their loneliness was not only physical, but also psychological. We call this situation as Alienation.

The alienation of a person may be from friends, parents, society, a particular place (e.g. native place) or from the material and spiritual world. I experienced that this alienation or loneliness makes us to concentrate and think about the things that we don’t notice usually. The power of observation and analysis of incidents shows its best output ever experienced.

Here, I would like to mention my own this kind of experience at a remote place. Of course, it was not actually a remote place. I was among the hundreds of folks who had gathered to seek the pleasure of the beauty of nature, loving personalities, pleasure of entertainment and the pleasure of peace. We have been accepting the sentence-“Man is a Social Animal”. This animal is fond of society and crowd.

Today, we have plenty of options to communicate debate and express our thoughts. These channels are social networking, blogging, messaging and chatting with a friend who is sitting at a distant place. Some people find their peace in chatting with the people whom they’re not familiar face to face or have not met even once throughout their lives. Therefore, we rarely get time for self interaction and observe the incidents around us.

The question arises that how a person can seek pleasure in chatting or talking to an unknown person? How would you believe that the other person is able understand your condition? There can be another aspect that these blind-chatting folks are afraid of knowing that somebody knows their mind. This type of communication can’t be counted as a relationship but just NETworking where what maters I just connections technically. It doesn’t matter whether you are emotionally involved in that “connection”.

I think, the Social Networking can be the primary step to build a relationship, and the “Connectors” may use it to check its sustainability and feasibility.

When you pen a letter, put life in it!

When you pen a letter, put life in it!

I just came across an article convincing me that we are losing a great pleasure of our life due to over use of technology. Yes, I am talking about our letter writing skill that we’re unable to practice now days. Really, writing letters makes direct and instant contact with the reader’s mind with you. Although, you will get thousands of printed greetings, e-mails (that are forwarded from your friends) and SMS’, but you can’t make the receiver delighted as you expect.

On the other hand, when you pen a letter you put your feelings in simple and clear words. These letters show how deep attachment you have with a particular person and the receiver can also experience your involvement in writing. The most effective part of written letters is that the reader can imagine you actually sitting on chair, bed or at your favorite secret place and writing the letter with completely sunken in his/her thoughts. That makes the reader overwhelmed by your thoughts, and that reader immediately sends a warm reply to your letter. What else you want as an appreciation for your writing?

Before some years I thought that I couldn’t practice letter writing for communication. Today, I wonder that I had written bundle of letters while graduating. I wrote number of letters in English and Marathi as well. Isn’t it amazing? ;) It was a high period when I used to play with words in prose and poetry. Many of my friends still don’t believe this fact, and some friends believe that I’m secretive in this matter. Pages after pages were penned, read, memorized and burned and torn up to pieces. It doesn’t matter what you do with the pieces of paper once you succeed in conveying your message to the Destination. The words and sentences in your letter vaporise into the air and become the part of somebody’s memory, and you remember how you enjoyed writing those letters every time you miss that experience.

So remember, whenever you write, write with life..! At least I’ll follow it.

Waiting for nothing...through 'No' thing !!

What is my life? Who am I? What makes the life complete?
Don't worry ! I am not going to discuss these headache-receiving theories... Today, I started writing with a thought of uncertainty and uneasiness that has became a part of our life unknowingly.

I know that the Time is changing, but changing times is not always progressive. We need a certain point where we will be sure for a certain period about relationship, work and success... Here, I will be a bit emotional and traditional by considering the safety of the Future life.
Actually, I wanted to put the confused state of my mind that I'm unable to understand for last couple of days.. Some times I find myself with disturbed character. [No. It i not like that what you are thinking.. ;)] You might have experienced someday an unknown thought itching every now and then into your heart.

Every day, I try to sleep with a new thought, but unfortunately it doesn't work for the complete sleep. I keep changing every angle to get the right posture for the full fledged sleep. Finally, the sun rises leaving me with open eyes..:( I feel sleepy and dozing for the whole day as I am drunk or don't wanna talk anyone.. The day goes in this trance and sun sets with thinking that what the heck happening to me...?

Now, you will say that you need to visit a doc for treatment. No. I don't need any treatment. This is happened with me many times, but this is the first time I am talking about it. I know that talking about this issue will not immediately solve it. I know that writing this blog will may lead to more questions and doubts... But I still feel that by stating the problem I can figure out any solution... As of now, I cant say whether it is worked or not, but I can feel the change of air that flowing through my mind. :) Really, believe me!

Expressing your state of mind, troubles or confusions is always non-dangerous.. It my not lead any conclusion that will solve the trouble, but you will find the place to place that thought and never let it touch your other thoughts which will lead you to a happier life. Its like Ayurvedic treatment- You may get recovered. If not, you will also not have any side effect.. I guess I am right.

I call my problem "nervous breakdown" or psychological error in my life. Let this bug be fixed by the Time, the Changing Time Developer.

Will come soon.... :)

A Ray Of Hope

2010-04-09T10:59:00.001+05:30

You can Feel.....
   What you have ever experienced.
You can Discover...
                What you have ever found.
You can Achieve...
                What you have ever Dreamed.
You will reach...
   Where no one ever Reached.

If only.....you hold...

A Ray of HOPE..!!

Things have have been changing since the time I realized the existence of time. TIME, a never ending, running, continuous invisible almighty of our Universe. Even the Creator would not have thought about its eternal and unbeatable existence. Its so strong to ignore and succeed in this world that it has perished the great legends, Gods and Histories under its pillow.

I am not proving the greatness of Time, and I need not. Its clear and agreed by all the great philosophers, scientists, priests, sadhus and thinkers. The son of Adam is bound to lead his life following the Time.

Great representatives of the human race from Greece, India and Western world have witnessed the supremacy of the life flow that never stops. I too have experienced this eternal truth of change throughout the years I have spent in consciousness. This consciousness comes when the first time we understand the difference between old and new; a child and a young. The quartz movement always suggest us that this time will never be the same or it won't come again. It is changing without a single slight break.!! Isn't it amazing?

Now, people feel sad for the wrong happenings and bad experiences that occur in their lives. A person knows what the other person in front of him is suffering (disease, depression or death) will come into his life someday. Its clear truth, as everybody accept this. The problem arises when the start feeling surprised by the incidents that happen suddenly, even when they have realized the power of the Almighty, whatever or whoever it may be. Why don't we go with straight and clear attitude to all types of experiences?

Here is a simple way of thinking positively. We consider our life begun by the time we stepped out of the mother's internal world. I suggest, consider your life begins when you first realize your existence to this world. Who are you? What does matter by your existence? What you have got to do with this world, your family and with you as well? Start thinking for a Beginning irrespective to the time what you have spent.

Remember, the moving hand of a clock says: "This time will never be the same."

You just only have to hold a positive attitude towards future. Go ahead with a long ever lasting Smile on your face. Like this :) :) :)

A day out of Rush....

2009-09-20T16:18:00.000+05:30

Finally, the day had come when i was on the airs with green shadows..From last couple of days i was planning to go somewhere out to catch the final days of thse rainy season. And that wish came into the reality when a sudden tour to Mahabaleshwar was fixed from my office. Yes, i was very excited to go there since i had never been there and wanted to enjoy each chnce i get over there.

The most surprising thing was that the place we visited called "mini kashmir" is worth to call by the name. I felt watching the green scenario as i'm in real kashmir. Literally, all hat can happen to me that i went back to my memories of Shimala tour..Though that was much rich in beauty as the kashmir, but one must go to dwelve over the hills and rivers.

When i returned to pune it was almost the same time when i always leave my office. Despites all the travelling and fatigue i was still feeling fresh and zestful, as i saw the rush in the city in which we everyday forget to love nature. we even try to avoid our friends and colleagues to reach our home as early as possible to throw away all the steres we cary from office..That is so sad of us.

I enjoyed the day and played also..and i enjoyed the rain while going home back at night..that was amazing..and unforgettable to me!!

The Beginning...

2009-09-06T15:46:00.000+05:30
