MY THOUGHTS AND IDEAS...

Does luck exist?And even if it does can our rational mind let it to be the reason behind our success and failure?Last night we had a little discussion about luck.I am of the view that luck doesn't exist at all and all results depend on our actions and actions alone.In short luck is nothing but  a little mental fabrication.The opposite view was that even if we assume karma to be the reason behind success and failure,there is still an element of doubt when thinking of results and that doubt is eliminated by introducing the variable of luck. Our way of thinking,beliefs and our general behavior is heavily influenced in the type of environment we live in.By environment I mean religious environment.It is pretty natural for a common human to believe what his ancestors believed because even today with all the advancement in civilization,instruction is considered the best way to impart knowledge from generation to generation and until we come up with something better we have to bear it.A ...

We live in a world which demands action at every bit.Right from the time we get up in the morning there is a list full of 'to do' activities and we are of course expected to fulfil those in order to 'live'.But activity  is not that vague kind of thing.We all see a lot of activity around us in fact we only see activity around us!Who has seen inactivity?I haven't till now.So it is pretty natural for us to be bent towards activity but this is not about activity.I'd rather like to explore re-activity.Yes the reaction we immediately put forward whenever we see some favourable/non favourable activity. I love analysing things both in their minute as well as in their manifest form.I believe this is a way to realize the truth.So if I say reactivity I'd like to explore both minute as well as vast implications of our reactivity to outside action.There are only three kind of possible activities which require a reaction from us: Favourable activity arousing appreciation...

The change I am boasting about these days,could until last week, be only be observed by me as my public interaction was negligible if not nil.But now with the start of a new semester,I have been meeting people but with a new and different attitude.I do not have any problems as such with the people but of course it has developed over a long period of time and this change has only strengthened it.Now thinking about the nature of goodness and evil I often come across contrasting situations where it is almost impossible to apply the judgement.I think,at that level, a faith is necessary.A faith in your beliefs or religion would suffice.These days have been pretty light compared to previous time an I can't stop thanking my recent shift of focus towards myself.I have been guided by thoughts of one of the most influential guides this world has ever seen and sometimes I too get amazed at how he explained to cope with even the most minute circumstances in life. It feels like a burden is off...
