JUST MOVING ON-34


Just yesterday,I was thinking about my days in the college and then suddenly something interesting came to my mind.Why not compare one of the days to something grand and interesting,which is of course life itself?I often compare life with a train journey and other things,because it seems analogies are one of the sharpest of tools in order to retain something in the mind and I've felt the need of it ever since I've been studying.So,in order not to forget any moment of my day to day life,in this college,I use analogy.It seemed fascinating at that moment and then I started thinking about it and I think I should type it up otherwise I tend to forget things too soon and all the ideas pass out not even bothering to take permission from me!!!
Life,such a beautiful and grand thing what if could be represented by a single day!What if we could take each day as equivalent to an entire life?We are born each day and at the end we sort of switch ourselves off at night which is precisely what is the process of life itself.Death too is switching off just to be switched on again!
On a given day usually,I drop in at the college around 0900.The time is just like the day is in its infancy,people come in and the day well it just being started slowly starts picking up its pace like a boy learning to walk.After a hour or so,more people come in,the day gets more familiar with the world around it and people more comfortable.A few hours into the day it grows into its youth,jubilant and cheerful as people who had started their day at 0900,get into the groove and more or less each one is involved in some serious business.Just like youth is the most productive time,similarly the day in its youth around 1200 is the most productive time to work.Each one of us can be found working at that time,the nature of work,well I can't comment on that but more or less each one of us is found working around that time.
And just like after cheerful youth comes a time of calmness same is the case with the day,around 1400 the day rests in calmness,with everyone just working peacefully and a certain calmness can be felt.Then around 1500 the day starts feeling the experience of some grown up old man-type.
People begin to leave the place of work while the more productive ones are still working tirelessly.By 1600 the day sets into kind of its old age and the time,as it passes,starts becoming more and more event less and peaceful just like the old man in his backyard is just sitting and gazing at the people doing almost nothing!And as the clock ticks at 1700,the day is waiting for its death.All the excitement which looked like such a habit has passed,and there is a certain calm all around signifying the end.The moments are event less and the day well it does not offer much at this time.And slowly passes the moment when I too leave and the day slowly dies just waiting to be reborn as the next day!
Next day it is the same old story repeated again,and there is again life and death as usual!This might sound stupid,even I feel stupid once I read it up again but who cares,its good to be stupid sometimes as well,as long as nothing is harmed!
I just typed it up as it came in my mind.The story of a day is very comparable to the story of life itself,if thought over carefully.After all everything is nothing but a process undergoing change and we are nothing but mere spectators to this grand thing called the universe!

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...
