Why are we here

We were in a cab moving from Pune to Ranjangaon, when I fist heard about this fact and it has settled in my head like "inception", like a restless housefly. "Tipu Sultan: The great warrior in India died around 1799, fighting wars in India" " Circa 1780's in Europe Steam engines were being put to different usages" What is the point? you may ask. Well, point is a 'question' that i have not got an answer to ( like a zillion others). Why are we Indians like this? We have been way too far away to 'developments' as compared to the world, though we claim to be the most knowledgeable races. With the 'zero' and all the gyan in our ' vedas' Why are we always unorganized and unruly mob like. But all this is only the background clutter. Though the bigger question is "why are we here( on earth)".. the current question is why are some people in India though they can be in a "developed country" which is better in ...

?

( Smiles) It happens with me often, that i go into the spiral of thoughts. Today's Trigger : The National Anthem (that plays before Any Movie in the theater; i think it happens all over maharshtra ) I am usually looked upon as a NON-Patriot! What a shame! Are you not proud of your Great country; motherland.. etc. Well i wont even go in the direction that Points to How Great is " Eendia " coz of the polly -ticks and all that Jing Bang. AS always i'll go in a different tangent..... We love to divide ourselves in groups. Dont we? Right from our Skool dez : Class; section; (red/yellow) house; his team ; her team; right upto : compaineez ; uniforms; cadres.. and so on. And we dont jut stop there. No! I am not talking about housing societies and religions, it goes upto countries ; walls; armies and everything. (someone said patriotic.. ok .. read on) Why do we group up as human beings? And make teams. -----------------------------One of the Questions! Are we afraid?...

Hiatus?

bomb blasts happened yesterday and today in blore and ahmdabad i returned a few days ago from a famili get-to/vacation from out of India, where we met this guy who works for 15 months and travels for the next 12 and repeats, coz that is what he lieks to do. He has ony done 34 countries till now. Just now i was talking to my local grocer while buying some lemons to try the new tequila, he was relating about the blasts he witnessed in Mulund and the macabre that was! i realised that human lives are such local phenomenon. Only due to cognitive behaviour, and advancements our IQz are better now. but still our lives and very trivial trivial enuff to be lost lost in making ourselves in line with expectations of the normal of the PEOPLE/norms/ of those patterns which have been found common and set to normalise things Not those spikes in patterns which have brought about all the changes in lives/technology and learnings It is human to live by and in by and in patterns did u know that our brain...

Conspiracy Theory

““When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”” Paulo Coelho quotes Now Situation: A person wants ( deeply desires ) something and... yes.. the UNI-verse* CONS-pyres* to hell P * achieve !! And now the other person deeply desires / wants / wishes another thing, which is in complete conflict of "A person"'s Deep desire! ?? Pertinent question arose out of two situations: 1. When father living in one city had a sleepless night as he was deeply worried about something: Son #1( oblivious about father's worries) in city #2 also had sleepless night and had negative thoughts about father. Son# 2 ( also oblivious about father's worries) in City #3 all-so* could not Sleep. 2. Girl and boy are nearly seeing each other, but break off. Much later girl's brother (husband) and girl's SIL (wife) are concerned about girl as she is going through a rough patch! Now Husband and WIFE who know boy very well, persuade him. They de...

Moments

I have experianced them aplenty And I am sure you all have too.. The life around you is too fast but your mind is able to capture those tiny details and you are existing in both the domains. Music- fast but... your mind .. enjoying some of the slower paced moments of life. Traffic -Everyone Impatiently trying to get 'There' faster and you are calm in your sphere.. 'Your Sphere'! Do you live in ur Sphere? Your world defined by you! Or you live a life Defined by the World around? What are your parameters of life? Do you know?

Drivers and Tangents

I imagine a not so small ball speeding towards a direction. It keeps speeding till it meets another something which either diverts its direction, slows it or stops it! It could also be hit by another 'Thingy' which could enforce its speed or direction or both. Whichever way (if you were also to imagine) you would agree that the first 'not so small ball' has either been pushed or has some internal Driver mechanism! I think we as humans are also a bit similar. We usually start off in a direction with a certain speed. Now if you notice in our case this starting speed and direction is usually not really decided by us .( usually) It is governed by the initial knowledge ( read perception) pumped in by the immediate surroundings and the push by our near and dear ones and (OR) people who we have trust on. Then with time come the tangents! These are new sources of information ( direction) and force or impacts or pushes. Our new modified drivers. Without even going into directio...
