JUST MOVING ON-53


In my day to day life there are instances when I misinterpret what people around think about me.One of them was that,people around me had a distinct paranoia which resulted in myself being uncomfortable around them.I don't think anyone hates me,not anymore so I'm like more comfortable.

Now,as we progress we often come across things which might be unpleasing and we respond accordingly.I've been practising a certain kind of restraint while dealing with such circumstances.I mean,I label almost every phenomena that occurs to me.So if something is pleasurable,there is a pleasure label attached and if it is not so,there is a label for it as well.It helps me,among a lot other things,in not responding in a way which might be embarrassing if looked back upon.This kind of contemplation in day to day life has a lot of benefits for me.I've started to feel them now.

If someone praises me,it is natural to be elated and get lost in fantasies and all that.But with contemplation,we learn to control nature so that when someone praises us,we don't go overboard and if someone curses us we don't get intimidated.This middle path is necessary in our daily conduct if we have to live comfortably.Being cheerful is not such an alien thing.I mean it is but normal to stay cheerful every time.It is us who on account of our delusions,rob our heart of such a feeling.So if someone comes up and says hey you know what life is a struggle and the world is a harsh place and all that the first thing is to show some sympathy for that guy.He has not realised the way of joy but the realisation has occurred anyway,(or even that may be a delusion) through the way of struggle.And he/she has struggled so hard that there is yet another way and that heart should be cheerful seems alien to him,

One thing is for sure,the nature is here as it is and it is left to us to ascribe various qualities to it.In our understanding of various phenomena we tend to ignore the general human behaviour and hence we fight over it.It is but natural for 10 different humans to describe a single thing in 10 different ways.Of course color red is red for almost all of us,but problems arise when we present opinions.Opinions are not facts and they vary.Now if someone out of delusion tries to present his/her opinion as a fact,well there is no use messing with the person there.There can not be a conclusion to this kind of a talk,as the guy will try to run over almost everyone who opposes,thanks to his ego.Hence it is necessary to back out of such talks.Of course we may choose to stay if the purpose is entertainment itself.

Everyone of us has a theory about how the world works.There can be hundreds of such theories around us everytime.What is the use of enforcing my theory over someone else?What is gained,I fail to understand.Rather,I tend to listen to and try to understand what the guy feels.It makes me feel happy.Indeed,listening to others' ideas,thoughts and little fantasies makes me happy and I never miss this kind of moment.Problem arises when some egoistic person comes across.He/she can't allow the simple human inside,to function properly.Such people are a mess,for themselves and also for people around them.
We are still in the learning phase of our lives and as we progress,we are observing that the world is not the way we thought it to be.It ain't rosy neither it is a place full of hardships.It is up to us to look at it the way we want and it won't complain either!Now I realise why the ancient people were of the view that nothing real lies outside of our mind.It is our mind that sees the outside world in the form of objects,matter,ideas etc.Nothing real exists outside of the mind!

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...
