Love and Creation

I was back to my home after my internship at Hyderabad. I landed at Coimbatore, after the scare of AI strike, and she came all the way from Madurai(350kms) to pick me up.She had been waiting at the airport for 2 hours.When I just walked out of my Airport, she was standing at the entrance with the big wide smile.She showed no remorse for waiting in the airport for 2 hours nor for travelling the arduous 350kms,but rather she was full of happiness.We walked into the car, I slept in her lap and we had a great chat all along the way till Madurai. When we reached home, he was waiting at the gate expecting our arrival. I stepped down and exchanged thousands of words through my eyes with him.He is the only person in the world who can understand me better than her.He is my best friend,my guide and my role model.From that instant, I have been experiencing love in its purest form.Love that no one can describe! Why do they love me so much? Why do they live for me? Why do they sacrifice their life for me? Obviously my brain comes out with the answer "Because you are their only son", so why do they love their son? because I am their creation!. So does creation foster love? Yes may be!, I am sure Steve Jobs loves the word apple more now, and Sergey loves 10^100 more now, why? because it is their creation.Their creation has close links with these words!. So how to foster this creation?( the question the entire Business community asks), I started thinking,I came back to my case again,how was i created?? Yes! its love,love between my mom and dad created me!, So?? "Love fosters creation and creation fosters love",its a chain reaction!. Sachin's love for cricket made him create so many world records,which in turn has increased his love for the Game. ARR's love for music made him create brilliant pieces of music which in turn has increased his love for music. So here arose a question to me, If love fosters creation, Would people create something if they fall in love with a girl/boy.( apart from the obvious one :)). Yes!,they will !, Pierre Omdiyar and his creation e-bay( he started it to help his lover trade Pez candy dispensers) is the best example.
So lets start falling in love with something and make this world a better place to live!.

PS: Written with little love so apologies for the rusty creation

The danger of reading history!!!!

Yes!!!, I am back to blogging , Like any other human , I too got bored of these philosophical stuffs. So whenever I planned to write some thing I felt it was substandard to be written here. However I felt today if i don't rekindle my passion for blogging I will lose my interest completely. So when I was thinking what to write,nothing sprang out of my mind as it usually does. I found it disgusting. I started thinking, why is this happening?? Has my 2 terms of IIM education(what people call a prestige) destroyed my creativity? Yes could be!!!, I have been much into philosophy for the past two terms, reading and discussing a lot of stuffs, but why am I blank?,no thoughts !!!,nothing!!!. So does education destroy creativity?? , and when i started thinking more deeply , why do people get educated? the answer that sprang up in my mind was 1. Money,Power&Prestige 2. Passion and building one's intellect. So how do people educate? Reading books and listening to lectures - In a nutshell by reading history of different subjects. Yes !!! we read history of different subjects to contribute to its history. But is the history true? No!!!,not certain, is there a particle called electron? could be or could not be, its just the interpretation of JJ Thompson, he was influenced by the history of Physics (people before him like J .Dalton) that made him discover electron and gain acceptance. The same applies to every field. Each of the greatly revered inventions are still hanging upon thousands of assumptions which has been loosely propagated by the hegemonic classes. So now why education? Yes Education is to learn the rules of these hegemonic classes, so say after learning the rules that these hegemonic classes have created a person X could add his own point to the history of the subject created by hegemonic classes and that person X would receive the Nobel/Abel/Fields medal created by these Hegemonic classes. Can Science progress like this??? No never. This is how our entire education system functions, In the name of fundamentals right from the school all human are conditioned to certain thoughts as per the societal demands. This creates a constraint in their thinking. Kids are given no marks if they write something other than that taught to them. People tend to forget there is no right or wrong , there are only interpretations!!!. So what now? what should be done? Thinking.......( lol,thats my next Business plan) . So coming back what has my IIM education taught me? yes it has taught me that this sort of thinking I have done now is called as post modernism!!!!

Are Emotions so powerful?

I have been an emotionless nerd for the past 20 years , First time in my life I have been over whelmed with Emotions. Tomorrow is the last working day of my college life...., my heart trembles , the last class in TCE which i would be attending . I would miss my great friends ,teachers and the safe world of TCE in a day. Oh God!!! , is this life? why cant there be a life with out any change? Is it the change that causes such emotions? Changes occur everyday then why doesnt it cause emotions? Just like smaller tectonics shifts add to a large earth quake, these smaller changes when they add up during a period of time and bring about a larger change , yes , it causes a Mind quake which results in spontaneous overflow of Emotions . So whats the effect of Mind quake? it breaks the emotional bonds that we have built . Sorry for boring u so much , this is what i felt today when i started analysing emotions. This incident really made me think about death. What happens when we die? We lose everything , we lose all bonds, we reach the ground zero. We can be even Bill gates or Albert Einstein , but death is eventual . So whats the use of money and fame we earn? many people say that money and fame makes the world remember us, after we die. But whats the use, the world remembers us after our death? we have no emotions , no feelings after death , so why should we worry about the world?. I am not able to find the answer!!! , there is not a single rational answer that satisfies me. Life is just an illusion , an experience which is short lived. Lets not be guilty nor proud of what we have done , Lets not praise or belittle any one , because these are all just experiences and illusions , not the reality . Lets also not live a life that is stereo typical , say x and y has a child z , they want z to learn well and succeed , z starts earning marries a beautiful woman A they have a child B and this process continues!!! , Is this life? Lets seek to live differently , there is no wrong in being a Osama bin laden , prabaharan or even Hitler , because its our life and we can choose what ever different experiences we want . Lets live life to the fullest and have different experiences that no one else had, thats the real essence of life .....
NOTE : Sorry for this worst post, it was written when i was overwhelmed woth emotions.

Ensuing Violence proves Darwin's postulates

WAR in Afghanistan, in Iraq,in Palestine, Civil Wars in many African nations ,Conflicts in Kashmir ,Srilanka,Checyna and pakistan, So what does this all mean? Manking is becoming decadent(Detoriating)? No! ,they are maturing . Yes, Mankind has started to grow and they have matured. Surprised? Let me prove my point with Charles Darwin's theory of evolution . According to Charles Darwin as a species matures on earth,it naturally plunders the natural resources that suits its needs . This on ensuing for a few hundred years naturally leads to competition and atlast the SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST. Thats what is happening to man kind . Th population continues to grow exponentially while Antropophilic resources( Subset of Natural resources , I presume you understand the meaning) continues to decay exponentially. So this normally leads tocompetition among people ( VIOLENCE) and thus only the fittest survive. So whatever may be the war , and whereever it may take place the cause may directly or indirectly point to competition for natural resources. Thus consumerism and population growth is the main cause for all wars across the Earth . So rather than supporting peace missions ,( the word peace itself is an illusion) and having awards such as Nobel prize for peace, the best method to tackle the ongoing crisis is to curtail the excessive consumerism and population growth . In the above context of war many people call nations,persons etc as bad,evil . This really made me think the definition of a bad/evil deed. As per Indian Penal Code the deadliest act ( most evil deed) is killing a life . But you should all be aware that that each one of us kill thousands of small organisms (insects,microbes) and lives everyday day . Theres fundamentally no difference between the life of a mosquito and human, both cannot be brought back, so why this prejudices that human life is bigger. So lets understand that a murder convict isnt a bad person he is as bad as we. He is just participating in the competition to survive that every one of us do . And also note that in a few decades killing another human would become an everyday affair if the consumerism and population grows exponentially because this would take the competition to final phase . So lets understand that there is no polarisation( good and evil) on earth as all religion propogates ( Religion and gods just a creation of man to maintain his society and to satisfy his natural selfish desires) but only neutralisation . The creator(called as god by people ,i call it a scientific force) has preffered equilbrium , and lets understand that there is no good or evil deed, if a deed is good all deeds are good, if its evil all deeds are evil. Dont ever be guilty of any act.

Parochialism,Jingoism,Fanaticism....Let these 'ism's go awry....

It was the morning of 27/11/08 , North east monsoon was at its peak .....,my mom who was so obsessed with the hurricane nisha switched on the television , rather than the news about the hurricane making the headlines , the head lines read 'WAR ON MUMBAI', she was utterly shocked.I slowly got downstairs and had a look on the television . I wasn't feeling even a slightest tinge of surprise , after watching so much terror attacks in a year,this one didn't affect me. However when i came back from college i realised that enormity of the attack and the magnitude of the disaster . I was awe struck by the skill of the terrorists ( Although i had a strong hatred towards them) . I slowly made my way to my study and got engrossed in some deep thinking. My apathy for these Islamic terrorists started growing and at a particular point I begin to wonder about the cause for such a tremendous spur in islamic terrorism.....Remember these Islamic fidayeens are also humans , they are also sympathetic to fellow humans , yes ,their sympathy towards their own people( Islamic community) has resulted in this parochialistic( narrow minded) Jingoism( Nationalism) ......., the irony is that we Indians are highly jingoistic then these fidayeens , We get angry and organise massive protest even for a slightest of anti India sentiments ,say ' a Harbhajan symonds issue' or ' GW Bush calling Indains,gluttons' or 'say an open minded Advani calling MAJinnah a legend' arent we higly jingoistic? Isnt Raj thackeray highly jingoistic than these islamic fidayeens? yes he is ...., he organises massive protests when there is not even a slightest evidence of marginalisation of marathis.... But look at these fidayeens ..... when their whole community has been killed,raped and murdered , by the Indian genocide in kashmir and the US genocide in Afghanisthan ,Iraq, why can't they be jingoistic? Dont think i am symphatising with the Islamic fidayeens ,but this is the other side of the coin most people fail to see... , Remember the number of innocent Islamic civilians killed in Iraq,Afghanisthan will far outnumber the number of innocent civilians killed in these terrorist attacks. Islam is a little rigid religion and it doesnt possess the flexibility of Hinduism and Christianity to adapt so quickly to modern changes . But when these changes are forced upon the people of Islamic origin by the non islamic states in the pretext of enforcing modernity , and when they fail to respond , there arises tension and friction which ultimately leads to destruction.. Remember there was no case of Islamic terrorism until US started meddling with Afghanistan ( led to the birth of Al Queda) and India started meddling with Kashmir.So the meddling of a state by another through parochialistic jingoism should be stopped... Let them be independent ,let them lead their own life however it may be.... so the main thing that has to be done to eradicate terrorism is to STOP the 'GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR' ,rather than fighting with the terrorists, lets engage them ,lets allow them to live with freedom , Lets not interfere in their culture and practises, afterall they are also humans ,their lives are also as valuable as ours....So lets not say' Jai Hind' Lets say 'Jai Universe'...Lets not be even jingoistic about our earth.............

Womans power , a need for thorough retrospection

It was an usual morning after getting up , I ran downstairs like mad to have a glance at my love , yes ,my first love , a lady of more than 100 yrs , surprised ? yes its none other than The Hindu newspaper . I love the paper so much because it taught me first how to spell , the second thing is that, it taught me , how to be myself even when the whole world is changing . Yeaaa…, when all other newspapers succumb to the cheap tabloids and advertisements the Hindu sticks on to its traditionality . It is the same Hindu that i read before 10 yrs with addition of a decent new look as designed by virtuoso Mario Garcia. Yea, then after running over the pages.... no great news!!! except the disheartening mumbai indians elimination ,so i just had a look at the more outspoken magazine the outlook . I was surprised to see an article on the rising instances of woman drinkers in india . Oh god!!! i cant beleive my eyes, how can this happen in india , no not at all , i began to read the article . It was sooo disheartening that such a habit was prevalent mostly among all the affluent urban woman who are with their own jobs . I was really shocked when i read a woman saying drinking is a social responsibility . She also said that in big get togethers which involves a lot of big wigs from the MNCs, a person who doesnt drink becomes an unfit person. Is this the culture the MNCs propogate?? , is it our true Indian culture...??? Friends please remember the Hindu, when u have such a moral obligation . It has stood steadily with time when others have succumbed. It doesnt lose its original qualities......, so lets stick on to our culture when in such situations. Then returning to the article although i was upset on reading it , i was also happier on the other side. Can u guess why? yea because the woman have started to venture into un ventured territories( they have even started drinking). Yea So is 33.3333% woman reservation in parliament needed? lol ,no,not at all, it would be a few days before woman over haul men in politics, So male politicians beware... and thoroughly retrospect womans power..........

Should we act in a play within a play????

After the advent of IT based services, there had been a plethora of opportunities for Young Engineers and technocrats all over India. Placement and Interview training has become an essential feature of all the Technical Institutions in India. But in such trainings, students are taught to act and hide their original personality in order to get a mere job in a Multi National Company. Students too attracted by the huge salaries follow their guides and act such that they are so cultured and cosmopolitan. Should we fake ourselves just for a job??

FORMAL DRESSING:

One of the most important aspect that all interviewers expect is formal dressing, with neat pants, ties and shirts. Are the persons who are formally dressed alone , disciplined and cultured??, are we in our formal dress always ?,so why is that it is more stressed upon?, such formal dresses, like ties, coats, suits are all suited to cold climate of the westerners, unfortunately they have forced upon these habits on us which have made us lose our originality and culture!!!. Our own costumes like kurtas, sarees have all lost their importance . So I think that culture and discipline is in one’s mind rather than costumes, the best example for discipline ‘Our own father of our nation’ was a half naked fakir!!!, isn’t he disciplined and cultured??

FAKING OUR PERSONALITY:

The other aspect is faking themselves in an interview which is done by most interviewees. In this flat world with a lot of urge for knowledge and communication ,the interview trainers train the students to answer a question in a prescribed fashion that could fetch a person a job in the company, students too follow the same and they get the job but eventually they lose their originality. Why are we losing ourselves for the sake of a job. The most crazy of all the training is that , an interviewee is trained how to walk, how to sit ,how not to sit, these are all the basic qualities which has to be tuned during childhood rather than now. The companies rather than expecting such stereo typical regularities, could encourage the students to come out with their original personality and intentions which could be good both for the student and corporates. We know that ‘All the worlds a stage’ and we are just actors who have come to act, should we act in a play within a play?? ,think it over…..
