JUST MOVING ON-19


Willingly or unwillingly each and every one of us is bound by some religion or the other,and we are supposed to follow some rituals even if we denounce everything pertaining to them.Well I don't want to go into the analysis of why do we do such things or what should we do rather I'd like to express my astonishment over the friction which often takes place between one's personal religion and society.
Well I'm not a student of philosophies so to expect a great amount of theoretical knowledge from me is unusual for sure.I base my ideas on the daily experiences in the life and how do I do it?Well I minutely observe a lot of things usually ignored by other fellows.
Well the topic I picked on here is something which is related to everyone personally and yet no one talks about it.In fact religion is considered too pure to be debated openly in this part of the world.I'm fed up with this I know everything-you know nothing kind of practice.We all have personal Gods apart from the usual ones.Then there are some characteristics of that personal God which we like to emulate in our daily lives.But the contradiction although slight occurs here.I fail to understand which is of greater importance,our personal relationship with a God or our relationship with a lot of people around.I mean we are ready to kill in the name of that God.And before I move forward,I'd like to mention I don't believe in God in any form,and anyone believing that way is delusional for sure.I believe in a manifest formless God which is understandably hard to conceive for everyone and hence we need forms.
Society,from small to large scale is of utmost importance,and we should dedicate our lives for the welfare of the society.This is what we learn everywhere but when it comes to practice are we following it?I don't think so.Definitely not when I see a human killing his brother for not recognizing his religion.Well now at least with such development in human thought and ideas this is about time each and every one of us question the religion we follow.The time for blind faith is gone,now is the age of rationale.All right now let me share something on a very small scale though.Some friend of mine is following a ritual which is very hard to follow especially in present time.By hard I mean the ritual seems irrelevant these days.Naturally he does not find a lot of supporters.I don't know what is his belief but he is ready to even spoil his social relations in order to follow that ritual.Well each one of us is free to have any belief but sometimes it seems strange how does a personal God become such important that a guy is ready to spoil his usual life over it.
Well moving on I don't feel the need of any ritual is anything else than bringing us on the right path.But torturing oneself over it,well what to say!

NAGALAND: FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Not too many people have Nagaland in their bucket list. Uncomfortable roads, poor transport system and a lot of corruption are a few factors which contribute to it. Added to it the stories of still active insurgency, Nagaland although an extremely beautiful hill state doesn’t manage to have a lot of tourism going on except for the Hornbill festival in December every year. But, my case is slightly different. Affinity towards the culture of the entire North east, plus a desire to visit not to tourist frequented places made Nagaland a definite must go. So, when I got time and saved some money, I immediately planned a trip to the beautiful hilly state with my girlfriend. The Nagaland express Since, th is was my second trip towards the hills of the North east, I was more confident and familiar with the sytem than the previous time. We booked a filght to Guwahati and from there we took a train to Dimapur aptly named : The ”Nagaland Express”. This...

IIT-JAM,असफलता के बाद आगे बढते हुए............

19 मार्च का दिन था।हम सब परिणाम का इंतजार कर रहे थे।तभी मेरे मित्र ईशान का फोन आया कि परिणाम आ चुके हैं और उसने मात्र ५ अंक प्राप्त किए हैं।मैं आश्चर्य चकित था कि जब इसने इतना बुरा प्रर्दशन किया है तो मेरा क्या हुआ होगा।मैं झट से दौड़कर अपना परिणाम भी देखने पहुँचा,और पाया कि मेरी रेैन्क भी उम्मीद से काफी कम मात्र ११५७ रह गई।थोड़ा झटका तो जरूर लगा पर चूंकि सफलता की आस कुछ वक्त पहले उस मित्र से बात कर के लगभग समाप्त सी हो गई थी,तुरंत ही उस झटके से  उबर भी गए।मेरा एक और दोस्त भी साथ था,उसकी रैन्क मेरे से बेहतर करीब ५०० थी।थोडी खुशी हुई पर उसकी भी दाखिला लेने की संभावना काफी कम है,ऐसा हमें कुछ देर बाद पता चला। तुरंत ही पिछला एक साल आँखों के सामने खड़ा सा हो गया।मन में आया कि इतनी पढाई कर के भी सफलता हाथ न लगी। कहीं वक्त बरबाद तो नहीं हो गया? कहीं हम गलत रास्ते तो नहीं चल दिए?  फिर अपने मन को समझाते हुए मैं घर पहुँचा,तो यह पाया कि मेरी सफलता असफलता का प्रभाव  मेरे प्रियजनों पर ज्यादा नहीं पड़ता।मैंने भी औपचारिक तौर पर यह बता दिया कि इस बार भी नहीं हो पाया।फिर अपनी किताबे...

JUST MOVING ON-17

Before I begin I want to confess that I don't have an expertise on philosophical concepts and ideas.Most of the things I say have no relevance or relation with respect to the existing ideas at the present.I may sound stupid and this is the reason I don't make my ideas public until I'm fully convinced.It's more like a kitchen kind of thing.You don't take your cooked meal out until you are convinced about the taste whatever be the ingredients! So now let's begin with what I intend to put here.I won't go round and round as I think matters are more clear in concise form.Whatever we do has a definite cause and will have a definite result,this is what we are taught from the very beginning but as we grow old and educated and things become much clear ,we start questioning this kind of thought.Some of us have a strong belief in religion and most of the time the answers are clear from a religious point of view as we introduce God everywhere we find things hard to ex...
