JUST MOVING ON-41


Live in the present,rest all takes care of itself.How powerful this thought is,I feel thinking like this for quite some time now,I feel a lot of burden off my shoulders.Why plan for the future,why cry over the past when we have the beautiful present around here!
I was sitting alone,thinking about it and felt like I should type up whatever pops up in the mind.Well,how foolish we are when we think over things which have no value whatsoever yet cast us into a wave of depression as well as unnecessarily excite us sometimes.Yes,untimely wave of happiness too has some consequences which might not be favourable afterwards.At the moment,I don't have too much of a burden in life and hence can live every moment as if it is a breeze.I don't wish to know whether it is transient or permanent,just because I feel that unimportant.Yes I've heard there are a certain chemicals in our brain which control how we feel,and in youth everything every process is at its optimum level.So this way too I'm in the best,most comfortable part of my life and hence it is expected of me to perform at my level best.I've not achieved some remarkable material success as yet,but still I've just graduated out of college and finished what'd constitute basic education.
Now,I can get a job if I want to and plan my life ahead with a family,kids,home etc. as all others do.But that'd be following the herd isn't it?And I won't do that even unknowingly.Despite expectations from people around me,I don't have any personal ambitions as such.I don't want to reach anywhere or attain something.Honestly speaking,these things don't fascinate me to the extent that I'll work for them passionately .Then what can I work for?That is a difficult question and has elaborate answer and I have it in my mind.People won't understand that,so they might take me up as a failure in life and I can just laugh at their ignorance!Working is important and it is definitely not advised to work for my own benefit itself,that'd be selfish.Even though on a large scale all work we do is only for us but that is a different sort of thinking altogether!In there the body and mind are not different but here on a worldly plane,we have to distinguish and discriminate.
So,being in the present is the key.For me,it is kind of a energy booster.Whenever I feel down,I look at present,and then a certain calm overtakes me which is pleasing and hence I boost up my energy.How efficiently we manage ourselves,is a very important thing in the modern day.People are ready to ruin their lives over ignorance!I often think whether I am on the right track or not.I mean sometimes I have doubts that maybe I'm spiralling down and I'll realise it once I reach the bottom!But right then,I have a few people who come to rescue me.There are a certain people in my life,talking to whom helps me ascertain that I'm on correct path.These are my friends.Although any person,if talks with me for a few minutes becomes friend with me or friendly at least but there are a certain people who act like a mirror in my life.
These days I live a secluded life and have some difficulty in reaching out to people,the main culprit being my work schedule these days.I don't think I can get out for 3-4 hours in a day except sundays and things will continue like this for a few months from now.But all this hard work will pay in the future,this is my belief.And it is a strong one,hence I don't have any fatigue or complain regarding the nature of work I do these days.C'mon we are not supposed to be complaining at this age at least!All the muscles,chemicals as well as hormones are fired up screaming work,work and work.This is my realisation.Although,it will too pass away with time,but that does not stop my from taking the best out of this time!!!

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
