JUST MOVING ON-22


There is no reason why we should not be cheerful in day to day life.Bearing a cheerful face is the first and most significant impact which we have on any individual.It signifies a lot of things.Confidence and good health are two of them.We often have interaction with a lot of people ordinarily and most of them we don't know.So I feel pity about those people who put up a sad looking face just to gain some emotional support!Anyways people have different ways of handling life and I'm no one to interfere.
Now what I have been focusing these days on,is self control.I don't know how to describe it in words but by application of it I mean a lot of things which don't even come close to things like self control.It goes well beyond it.In short I'm a bit wayward and for the first time in my life I feel totally lacking in understanding of myself.On the one hand I feel like some very normal guy with a very easy going life and then suddenly I find out it is not that simple.Life,family,friends,career,society,entertainment well all feels secondary sometimes to something which I can't even describe.Probably this is why ancient people focussed on the mind and its control.The inner self of a man seldom talks to him but when it does it does it with such an impact!It is happening to me right now as the slow but steady discovery of 'myself' continues!

For such a long time I've now adapted to this isolated kind of life and the best part has been that I don't have to run to people excited to shout well guys you know what,I did this blah blah blah....I'm more like I did it and you didn't even notice!Sounds like an introvert yeah but the difference is I'm not afraid in front of people and communicate well all through.Right now as I struggle to concentrate as usual,I have this feeling of contentment that have not deviated as of now and hopefully will not in the future. A lot of sincerity comes by itself.I mean we don't have to make a lot of effort in order to be sincere .It's more like all of us need a little bit of fixing and I feel each one of us desires it although taking it to be impossible to attain or sometimes even blaming the circumstances for not making the effort.I was one of those careless,don't give a damn kind of guy until some time ago but even since I tried following the path of sincerity well honestly life has become much more easier and i'm more energetic and enthusiastic than before(Yes I was energetic before as well!) the thing is that I've now learnt to channelize mental energy.I'm still at the primary level but its all right you don't become sincere overnight!A lot of effort needs to be put in but the bottom line is that following the path of sincerity is easier compared to others.
What is productive and what is not is not the kind of debate I'd like to go into as right now,I do what I feel like doing thst's it.I'm young as of now and I think its not unusual for me to behave that way.In fact carelessness has been one of my characteristics and I think this is where mind control has its best application.Finding fault in others,yes the best thing to kill some time well,now its time to abolish it totally.It does not have anything positive and I've gradually learnt to be tolerant.

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...

FIRST TRIP TO THE NORTH EAST-MIZORAM

Around 7 years ago during the final year of my school, I read a book about the various tribes of the north East India. Already fascinated by a place so serene, yet unexplored and heard stories of the people inhabiting those lands, the book generated in me a desire to visit the places as soon as possible. The author of that book visited the entire North East as a part of his assignment for All India Radio (AIR) during the 1970s and the way he described those tribes and the places, a strong desire arose inside of me to visit these places and see for myself how beautiful that land is, how well mannered those people are! It is aptly called the 'unexplored paradise' as I discovered. But the idea materialized only in March, when financially empowered by a scholarship from ISRO, and constantly motivated by my best friend (who could not resist travel, and hence accompanied me!), I planned to visit Mizoram. Why Mizoram? There is a particular thing about the mizos, and if asked com...

TRIP TO HARIDWAR AND RISHIKESH

A trip to places like Haridwar and Rishikesh is always a source of peace,joy and spirituality and when we went to these places this month, it was no different.We had some free time and I along with my two other friends decided to visit Haridwar as well as Rishikesh for a short 4 day trip.As I had spent my childhood in a nearby town,naturally these places were well travelled by me . Day-1:Bus to Haridwar We got up early in the morning,at around 0445,hurriedly got dressed up,called each other and ran off to the ISBT at kashmiri gate to catch an early bus to Haridwar.I was extremely careful to catch the bus as early as possible because of the traffic at the border growing up a few hours later.We expected to catch the bus at around 0700,but as it always happens,we were delayed by around 30 minutes and managed to board the bus as 0730.It was a smooth journey,early in the morning a lot of fresh air poured in,later as it was not too hot,we enjoyed riding the bus in the bri...
