JUST MOVING ON-43


There are certain issues which we as a whole,on account of our luxurious lifestyle face and some of which have the potential to threaten even our survival on the very planet we originated!One of them is ever increasing pollution.
Well,look everywhere around us,we have polluted almost everything nature provided us for free.Be it fresh air in the morning,or the clean river water,even the land on which we dwell,we have not left anything.And to make things worse,instead of realising our mistakes,the general human thought is more or less cherishing these 'achievements'!I certainly like many of our fellows feel pained looking at the apathy of our surrounding environment.Take for instance river Ganga.We call her our mother,and rightly so.Afterall she is the caretaker of about 70 crore people of our country.Had she not been here,we'd not be having our foods and supplies as easily as we have today.And just think about how do we thank her for that!By dumping industrial waste,by dumping our sewers,by forcing her to take away all the dirt we create everyday.Had she been a real mother,how'd she respond?She'd do nothing but cry looking at our madness.We are ready to destroy everything in our lust for luxury.
Pollution is not the only thing that should worry us,although it should be the first one on the priority list.Now,if we talk of pollution we find hollow talks everywhere.All talk and no action at all.Look at yamuna right here,crores have been wasted but the situation has been same for past 40 years.
I don't think mere talk is of any use,as far as pollution is concerned.Many a papers have been published,but no action.We need to change our attitude towards pollution which should be drastic and deterministic in nature.I mean there must be a time frame based planning which should be precise as well as comprehensive.The industries which by far have the maximum role in polluting rivers followed by municipal waste will have to realise the hazard they are pushing on us just for the sake of profits.
I am personally grieved looking at the situation of our rivers at present and can't find a way how to express it. I mean it can't be that millions of our people are being tortured by virtue of their ignorance,and we are sitting over it.We should be doing something over it.And right then I feel what is that something?maybe writing in public domain,well its being done by thousands already but does it have an impact?No,so move over..
What about being in the govt and implementing our policies,I don't think govt servants can have such autonomy!So,by far the best option for me seemingly is to study and study further until I get some recognition.
Being a science student I have the privilege of being in the front line as far as research in this field is concerned.So,if I can take a step back and well,concede some luxuries of life for the sake of people around me,it'll be satisfying,for me at least.I don't have a grand career plan for me,just because I know whatever situation I'm in,I'll not have a grudge against anyone or anything.So,if there is nothing to gain/lose why think about it!
Instead I can focus my attention on some of the problems we face today and find ways to eliminate them.This way I can keep myself busy as well as earn some money for my survival here.Life is not that big as we sometimes thing.These 80 years will pass too soon and at last we'll have a realisation that we were chasing the wrong thing.I realise it now and hence I'm very cautious about what I'm chasing..
The grand time scale,in which our tiny human lives seem like a tiny drop in the infinite ocean,sometimes leaves me awestruck!I mean look at the importance we give to our so tiny lives which I believe originates from our ego.Nothing matters in the long run,nothing here is to stay and the firm ground we so readily believe in,does not exist at all.How horrible and depressing it feels!Sad but true.Nothing existing here has the attributes of permanence,and here we are crying over our tiny lives.
The inter relation between modern physics and ancient eastern ideas,is really an eye opener for me and being interested in the philosophy of modern physics and equally backed by the teachings of Buddha,I look forward to exploring more and more secrets nature has for us.

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...

STARTING NEW LIFE AT BHU..

BHU gate Lanka Finally after a hectic 10 day period in which I moved from Delhi to Varanasi twice and ran here and there continuously throughout,I am finally at peace.Getting admitted to BHU was like a dream come true for me.I have aspired to be a part of this prestigious institution ever since my childhood and the satisfaction I feel these days is hard to express by words. The results were out in the first week of July and ever since then,I have been restless.I clearly remember how I spent two entire weeks,losing my sleep and being restless throughout.The restlessness is taking a toll on my body and I feel a little tired but as almost everything is settled now,there is no issue as such with regard to tiredness.Moreover,the excitement of living in a place like Varanasi is too much to overcome.It always had a very special part in my heart and now as I have got the full two years to live here,it is satisfying indeed! Leaving the family  is never a happy affair and it is sadde...

THIS BLOG...LET'S SEE HOW WE PROGRESS!

On this blog page,broadly speaking there are articles representing my state of mind at that very moment. Naturally,some of these are positive,indicating I was in a happy state of mind at that moment while some of them are negative indicating otherwise. I was thinking why I put so much of my inner workings of the mind on a place like blogger! Well,I don't think this is meant for a lot of public audience. I don't seek any readers,although someone very close to me can read them with no hesitation what so ever. As far as I'm concerned,I think it will serve as a reminder,when in later years I read back these articles and then laugh about the way I used to think!Writing as a hobby is very interesting one as well as it opens the doors to many possibilities isn't it?While,I might not be writing anything significant,but I'm writing some stuff nevertheless,and it is definitely going to help me in the long run. I love reading books of different genre,and will start writ...
