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...

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...
