The Concept of Smaller States

The after effects of telangana in the rest of india is the growing demand of more smaller states. Taking this as an advantage some people are aggressively promoting the theory that now people of gorkhaland want a separate state from west bengal, Vidarbha from maharashtra, kokrajhar from assam and uttar pradesh into 4 parts. They say that india is getting divided as the essence of national integrity is lost. This feeling is specially prevalent among the people belonging to andhra and rayalaseema regions. I dont want to take potshots at them but merely want to remind everyone on what we learnt from our 6th class history text books.
 
In 1953, India was broadly classified into 4 categories, they are,
1) The former british provinces which had an elected governor and a state legislation.
2) Former princely states or groups of Covenanting states which was administered by princes or a rajpramukh.
3) Another set of former princely states administered by a chief commissioner
4) Union territories
 
The borders of these states, inherited from British India, were not suitable for easy administration. The internal provincial borders of British India were a result of historical events, as well as political, military and strategic planning by the British. The Government agreed that the reorganization of state borders was necessary, but the basis of reorganization was yet to be determined. One of the proposals was to reorganize the state on the basis of languages of India. This would make administration easier, and would help replace the caste and religion-based identities with less controversial linguistic identities.
 
Hence, new states were formed based on the language that people spoke. The SRC has divided India into 14 states in 1956. One point we need to remember is that the population of india was only 40 crore at that time and now it is more than 120 crores. The population of Uttar pradesh which is still the most populated state in india was 6 crore and now it is 17 crore.  
 
Administration has become very difficult due to various factors as this population was growing. As a result, 14 other new states have been formed between 1956 to 2013 for better governance. And most prominent of then are the ones which are making great progress i.e Gujarat, Rajasthan, Goa, orissa etc. For that matter, Bihar has becomes one of teh leaders in administartion only after it was separated from Jharkhand. And I hope Jharkhand will be another Bihar in the next 20 years to come, give it some time. Hence, it is not a crime to divide bigger states into smaller states. The SRC has also reiterated this fact that the smaller the state the easier the governance.
 
This has not go to do anything with national integrity. We are born and always remain as Indians. They have diviedd the country into smaller states in 1956 and into much smaller states until 2013 but our national integrity hasn't diminished but has become much stronger. This division is only in terms of the land but it is not the division of our spirit. I have great friends who belong to andhra region and irrespective of which state they belong to they would remain the same forever. The same is my integrity to my country and I hope it is the same with everyone. So it is bullshit to say that the division of a big state to a smaller state is like dividing the country.
 
PS : There is an empty piece of land. A newly married couple build a house with a single bedroom in it. Later they give birth to two children. As the children grow they divide the hall and make a small bedroom for the kids. these kids grow and beocme adults and another floor is built above the ground floor for the families of the two children. The good thing is that even though there have been new constructions or divisions in the same piece of land , the spirit and bonding remains the same between the family members. The same is the case with my country.

Social Media & We



Evolution of the world is still a mystery. Each species is unique in nature with its own set of advantages & disadvantages. The advantage of a man lies in the ability to Think and Make and the disadvantage lies in Think & Break. One side of him wants to Use and the other side wants to Misuse. The God in him says Appreciate but the Devil in him growls Criticize. A transparent medium has been created to use & to misuse, to Appreciate & to criticize, to Boast & to be modest, to speak  & to suppress, to  Learn & to Teach, to share & to Snatch and the whole world has fallen apart. There is ruckus everywhere. As a result,  a huge revolution called Information revolution has taken place, thanks to Social Media.

We can never live the way we once lived. WWW & 2G together have revolutionized everything. It has made the world a smaller, cheaper and a well-connected place. It has given the word “Miss” a miss. IOS and Android keep you engaged throughout the day more than your work. E-paper & online news websites get you tons of interesting bits that keep you occupied for a very long time. Networking professionally and personally happens across locations 24*7 & more importantly you will never forget your wife’s birthday anymore with regular updates from everywhere.

Why the social media has done exceeding well is that with a username and an 8 letter password it has given you an Identity and Voice. Another important reason for its success is your excessive interest in someone else’s life.  It has opened the floodgates of constructive thoughts, poetic expression and underlying anxieties but at the same time it brought along Abuse, Criticism and Plagiarism. It has also reduced the barriers between the celebrity world and the common man but it also propagated hate among them at the same time. It can bring you together with your closest friend but it can also distance you from the same over a petty issue. It is a great way to promote your business but businesses include Porn & Adultery. It gives you fond memories & worse experiences at the same time.

The impact is huge and irreversible. It gave us voices but we turned it into noise. There is a lot of negativity in the air. When we compare our lives 10 years ago and today, a lot has changed. Our mindsets, preferences, attitudes, habits have gone for a spin. Internet, chatting and dating have become a necessity. It’s immature to comment on whether social media is good or bad but the impact is definitely there right from governance to gang rapes. It depends on where you stand between the extremes.

PS:  Social Media is like electricity, it has become so addictive that we cannot imagine our lives without it. It has such great potential that it is driving an entire generation on its track. Its job doesn’t end by giving a confirmed ticket to the passenger but also an enriching journey.

The other side of the Dice

Even before I sleep everynight my mind always makes "Educated Guesses" of what might be the headlines in the next day's news papers. And thats what I cross verify each and everyday in the morning whether my guesses are "educated" enough or not. But off late I dont know why my guesses are slightly off the hook but I am starting to get it completely wrong. Two words which feature in these headings very often is one of the causes for this. COMMUNAL & SECULAR.




I have been trying to understand these from a long time but the newspapers here havent helped me at all. I always find only one Section or rather let me be open on this I always find only the HINDU community pointed at under the so called COMMUNALISM flag. It was "mostly" before but now its "only" hindus. I really dont understand why is this. Just a small clue that a hindu has been involved in a terror plot created waves in the media and they were all over it in a flash. After the Ayodhya verdict a group of hindu lawyers were showing signs of victory and the media made such a great story out of it that one of the national news channels compared them even to KASAB. National security we talk about always and COMMUNALISM is the Biggest Threat to it. I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT. And then I look for those COMMUNAL organizations that really are a threat to the society. And to my surprise the only common names I find in the media are the organizations affliated to the Sangh parivar. RSS, Bajrang Dal and thats it. a faint mention of lashkar-e-toiba. hardly i find news about Indian mujahedeen,jaish-e-mohammad,SIMI and the chota mota organization be it any community. But almost each and everyday the newspapers carry articles saying "terrorists detained in link with planned blast" "suspect terrorists arrested for carrying arms" "terrorists identified in link with the terror plots" etc. and the problem is that the media never gives out the name of the terrorist organization to us unlike the way a sadhu yadav or a swamy assemananda gets national attention and also coverage. the problem with indian communalism is pretty simple , if terror attack  is planned on Sachin Tendulkar and is then neutralised , the reception would be totally different depending on who plans it.If the terrorist was a hindu then the headlines would surely read "Hindu terrorists plan to kill sachin". If any other community plans it other than a hindu organization would it alteast make the headings? Can the media use the organization's name as freely as they use RSS. Will there be the same kind of disscussion boards in the country? Is terrorism also commnal or are we making it communal? 'Saffron terror" does it make sense?
Terrorism has no boundaries,no religion,no commnity and no ideology. All the terrorists be it hindu or muslim or sikh or christian they belong to a single community called Terror with the only motive being creating havoc in the nation and unstability. a terrorist is a terrorist anyday and he has no other name or religion. I dont know if terrorism is the biggest threat to the nation or as the press says is it Saffron terror? do we have the guts to point out to a muslim and say he is a terrorist and he is a muslim atleast in India? no...


a sadhu yadav is as much a terrorist as osama bin laden if proved.. she is a terrorist but not a saffron terrorist...  we can never be united in this country but  atleast let us unite all the terrorist under one umbrella and call them terrorists.. Afterall we lose our lives to them and we sacrifice our dear ones let it be under the cover of zihad or saffron... there is only one common word for all such and that is terrorist only without any prefixes or suffixes.. and one such can be defined as the only kind of animal species in this world who is overjoyed by killing people of the race his/her birthgiver belonged to...


hence there is only one side to the dice called terrorist with the other sides manmade for personal interest which spoil the game

Am Ashamed

all the people who want to die in this world.. This is for u  that i am dedicating this post....


Id love to start off saying Please die as soon as youll can. Please... you assholes are a burden to our mother earth. A real let down to human beings you all are...


Y i am ashamed is that its a pity that your mothers have spent 9 tough months giving birth to you crooks... That was such a waste of time for them.. forget the time what about the pain... Those labour pains are the most painful things in this world... and it goes off waste... and then as soon as you are born that is the happiest moment in their lives .. they celebrate not knowing at that moment that you are such a cowardly basterd who doesnt have the courage to live.. and they start loving you like hell which no other person can give you in your life.. They love you like crazy saving every rupee for your future so that you can enjoy and lead a great life.. they make  your dreams their dreams and build castles in the air for your bright future and make sure that you get the best of everything in this world.. they have one and only world and that is you anbd your success and as you grow they start to feel proud as your achievements come over... they grieve more than you for your failure and try and instill confidence in you so that you can again become a winner...

and many more.. and thats y i am ashamed of these fools.... because they dont know the value of life and the things they do... Love is a bitchy glitch that takes away the sensibility of a person... and you fall in that trap.. it is like medipandu so sweet and beautiful from outside but within it it has all insects... and you forget everything else... your mother father brother sister aunt uncle teacher friends this world everything is gone... what is left is you and your lover and once one of them goes and everything in this world is gone...


youll are a waste in this world .. its a real waste that your parents gave birth to you which they will obviously cry throughout their life for what you did...

and one last thing before you die  think once of the millions of people who want to live badly in this world but cannot because they dont have food to eat,

think of the lakhs of people who lost their lives due to natural calamities without their mistake but  because of people like you who cause nature's fury

think of the thousands who are crippled who dont have hands and legs like you but still go on to live thanking god for atleast giving them what they have

think of the hundreds in hospitals and on death beds who want to live so badly but cannot because of their own misdeeds or due to their fates

 think about the tens of people who have wasted their valuable time on u and with you hoping that you would one day fulfill all their dreams and who have equipped you with all the necessary elements needed to face this world.

and think about the only one whose heart would stop and break the moment she comes to know that you are no more in this world

I pity that god must have atleast substituted lives of people who wanted to live ... that would have been justice

youll are murderers who will be wasting the time and efforts of so many ppl and will go away betraying them..

there is no much difference between youll and terrorists.. the only difference is the kind of killing.. they do it physically and youll do it mentally...

am ashamed to be in the same world in which you all are in...

Bench Strength

Top Leadership has always been a problem in India.This trend started emerging after Panditji's daughter pitched in for the PM's post after the demise of shastriji ,but nowadays it has become more of a alarming pattern in India's politics. We seem to be in a chaotic situation as the emergence of leadership in India has slowed down considerably . The bulk of this leadership has been coming only from a few "BIG" families. The GANDHI'S are leading from the front at the centre followed by strong regional empires in the states which include the Karunanidhi confusion(as the family is called famously for its complex relations), the YSR clan in AP where the legal heir is moving forward both in corruption and politics, the simple but slowly emerging scindias in MP and not to forget the abdullas at the top of our head.

Due to these patterns the power is rested only with those families and is not evenly distributed. It has become more of a monopoly where the psychophants are the key benefactors.

I call this alarmimg because India will be facing a serious drought in the coming days. Just because Rajiv gandhi was such a great administrator ,his son cannot be taken for granted on the same. The same with the others. We cannot rely on these spoiled brats who eat up their father's property for half of their lives and come into the main stream to carry forward the family legacy just because they dont have anything else to do.

I still dont understand what people like priya dutt. milind deora, sachin pilot,jyothiraditya scindia,jagan mohan reddy, stalin , alagiri,mulayam's son etc can do this country. Their survival in today's politics is a clear indication that we dont have options at the top. If we had, then these Clans would have ended long back instead of burdening the people.

The presence of these leaders as leaders is not a sign of encouragement for youth to opt politics as a serious career as even the worthful are being suppressed for a Price by the clans. The student leaders of the respective student wings are nowhere to be found once they are elevated to higher levels.We cannot let someone like a Jaganmohan reddy who is just Banking on his dad's fame to rule us. Then what should happen in this country? What is the Solution?

I dont know the solution. May be you have one which even i am waiting for. How to strengthen the indian political banch and who can do it? Welcome to this new world of finding out multiple solutions and choosing the best one. I would like all who have read this article to give a suggestion as to how canm this be improved?

And on this closing note, even a Revolutionary Leader Like KCR has a son like KTR waiting to replace him or second him in the party.

Battling The Monster

Starting in the building blocks of our body,
Spreads randomly making us feel shoddy.
It grows in us like a painless obnoxious weed,
Trying to destablilize and demoralize us until we concede.


It thinks that it is the king inside
Happy that we fell prey and it can completely reside.
Unware of the opponent that can conquer it
It tries to capture all that makes us fit.


In the process of looting our body and making us nothing
This dear friend encounters something
This I call The Human Resolve
Which Has an undefeated history whose mystery one can never solve



This resolve has taken us to the unending skies where no one has reached before
This resolve has taken us to greater depths in terms of technology and innovations
This resolve has taken us to newer horizons defeating all the enemies who try to win against us
And with the same resolve we face an enemy today called cancer


We can conquer this enemy with resolve in the battle field
With all the medical advancements as a supporting shield
We need to make our minds very strong
As that gives us the extra Grit to fight it out all along.


Let us Salute our Brothers and sisters
Who are fighting and defeating these growing monsters
We will treat them with utmost care
As they are the soldiers fighting CANCER with everlasting dare


These Soldiers are god's special children
Taking all the pain which one can never even dream
Inspiring us to fight with the Real Cancers in the world
Called corruption, terrorism ,racism, regionalism and hunger.


We all Should Raise our voices and pray
To cure CANCER that has come our way
Leaving it completely at an unidentified bay
Bringing happiness that will forever stay.

True Lies

On January 30, 1948 our country lost its father. In a broader sense it has lost a visionary, who gave a direction to the nation on how it should run. He left us but left to us great ideals which would lead help us frow into a stronger nation. The most important of which are TRUTH & NON-VIOLENCE.


We talk & debate so much about gandhi even today. Debate because some of his "stratagical" mistakes have seen light, talk about him not taking the extremist way, dub him as anti-bose. Unfortunate that we dont have the entire nation admiring that man but lets get some things straight .


Truth and non-violence are the toughest things in this world that can ever be practised. Telling the truth is surely next to impossible nowadays. To a mother a 5 year old son lies that he has stomach ache just not to go to school, to a father a son lies that he needs money for paying fee but not for a cinema ticket, to a wife the husband lies that he stopped smoking, to a girl friend a boy friend lies that he cannot live without her, to a boss an employee lies that he was stuck in the traffic jam for coming late, to the people a politician lies that he is uncorrupt and to the country the government lies that all their problems will be solved. Day in and day out we lie for everything and we cannot live without lying for two reasons
1) a Lie Satisfies all
2) a Lie is easier to say


It is not that but we all fear Truth because we know the Power of truth. Truth is so powerful that we cannot even live under its rays. Life becomes very very difficult even if in one of the above cases we start saying truth. Truth is always bitter as it sometimes breaks faith, breaks belief , breaks trust and more importantly breaks hearts. So inorder to build on the above we break truth itself and live in fear. Fear to face reality.
why is it we lie? We lie because we do not have the guts to face the reality, to escape embarassment,to satisfy our ego and to take a simpler path. It all sums up to FEAR. We FEAR truth because we are full of mistakes and we are making this world into a lie.


Truth is Pure. Its like fire which can be the light for those in darkness as well kill those who play it. It is the righteous path that can lead all of us to salvation. It is divine speaking which one gets to know one's real potential and the god inside and do wonders. It teaches you life in a difficult way but a life worthwhile and which can be remembered for ages. It brings new Enemies but eventually they succumb in front of Truth. Truth hurts you instantly but also relieves you from the guilt of not speaking it (a lie makes u happy instantly but hurts u permanently in the longer run). The values and relations which one builds around truth are always strong withstanding any tremor , but the ones built around lies seem stronger but will crumble to the smallest of the quakes.


Gandhiji spoke the truth and asked us to do the same and hence we hate him. He did something throughout his life which we cannot imagine doing even for a day. Lets put our hands on our heart and rewind backward to the day on which we spoke only the truth and not even a single lie. If there is one such day in our lives then am sure Gandhi would be a proud man. For all those who hate gandhi Speak truth for a week and then you will know his value and for all the lovers start speaking the truth atleast now to prove ur love and respect. Tribute to the great man.

Celebrating India

Who makes us proud in this country? What makes us proud to be indians? Is it Sporting brilliance that really makes us proud or is it a film persona's wax statue at madame tussauds? Does it come from the rich talent we have in music or from the tycoons who are the richest in the world? Do such achievements and brilliance supercede our problems or are those a sigh of relief for us from our regular hectic? Do individuals make us proud or does the fact that they belong to this land makes us? Top 3 Things Worth celebrating in this country..


The Indian Army for the amount of sacrifices they undergo to ensure you and I have a good sleep by guarding us 24*7. Not only during the wars but always.

The Indian Labour for the kind of conditions they work in for very little money, without whose support or presence our life would surely be running into a never ending jam. Infact the country would run into one. We depend so much on them.

The Indian Village community who still stay in those villages with less than minimum infrastructure and are responsible for the food we consume and waste everyday. I earn as much asmuch in a month how much a farmer with 1 acre land earns in a year. He spends as much money in a month how much I spend on a weekend outing. I enjoy current 24*7 but he enjoys not more than 8*7. And still he works more than me and more than all of us. He does the riskiest and the most les profitable business in the worls and we exploit it . Thanks to him that our country is still Stable in economy and growth.


Do we celebrate them often? Do we remember them atleast once a day? Food, comfort and External security is guarenteed thanks to them. Do we have atleast one award or one reward in recognition of our farmers? how do we thanks our these communities who are the real pillars of the national? do we or the government really recognize them r do we take them for granted? For me its really the Greatest service they are doing to the nation and are most worthy of being celebrated in this country filled with excelling talented entertaining celebrities.

Isnt That true patriotism? isn't it the real way of serving the country? Doesnt serving the country mean serving the people in the country? Arent they worthy of celebrating every moment?

Lets celebrate india as a whole by giving them more faciliteis , improving the infrastructure, making things a bit more comfortable for the ones who keep us comfortable all the time. Lets recognize and celebrate them more often like the others.

On this note Top 5 Individuals worth Celebrating(my Opinion) :
Azim Premji
Sunderlal Bahuguna
Medha Patkar
Ramakrishna Mission
Narendra modi


Lets Celebrate True India and Indians with due respect to the individual performers.

ankitham

its a long time now since ive written my first post on a long hot summer night when evryone was in the midst of a very good sleep. as soon as i finished that one i pinged one person and asked him to read about it.. now today i sit in this office wanting to write something and always when i want to write someting about someone agen and agen the only one that comes to my mind is him... i started off with him and would it be correct to write about him again?? is it that i dont have anyone else to write on?? is it that i dont have any other friends or say great freinds?? is it that i cant write on anyone else?? because when ever i think of riting my mind still wants to write more and more on him and why id that??

it is that i extremely enjoy when i write about him and writing about him takes me down a memory lane where i live and pass very comfortably.. writing about him makes me feel so excited that my rusty brain starts picking up pace and words seeem to flow automatically... and the thought itself of writing about him gives enuf pressure to the adrenalin inside me and makes it flow vigorously... and so here i am writing about the most amazing person one can ever come across .. a man of words (actions dont matter if ur words are so powerful).. the joshh machine.. the ever lively loverboy(no comments).. presenting my second post and its Protagonist Akil Karthik


now a boy like him can do anything and everything.. this was not what i believed few years ago when i was a kid... tejo ganesh(doddi ganesh) akil karthik and me ( called doddiraj by akil) had some amazing fun in school.. superb incidents which i even laugh today were the ones which involved noel sir and akil... noel sir would get gaalis from akil on the pretext of talking in telgu with noel sir.. the way he would pronounce those gaalis without noel sir understandin them was amazing... i remember the day he openly challenged Sridevi teacher on something inmaths.. boyy u need guts for that.. the day in 5th class when he won the maggi quiz in which even i was one of the participant.. i was so jealous that day that i didnt win but anyhow that coveted encyclopedia he received that day is still with me..the day he fell down and the after and before effects.. some very naughty incidents all are super fresh in my mind.. especially the way he used to run and play football(hahaha).. super... so many so many incidents and fun together... so many laughters together.. so many excuses for not coming out especially becoz of his sharmas.. so many jokes and gossips on sinu sir at sharma nd not to forget that nagalaxmi or someone his frnd at that place...


so many of such... but that days we knew about his sense of humor but not his writing skill .. use of that humor in language.. use of that little mind to write some of the biggest and complicated thing... and more importantly when he write she uses more of his heart than his mind... thats y i like to write about him may becoz he is more of a man of heart rather than mind like most of his critics (our critics)... one thing he is not afraid of criticism at all and the more his critics propell him a=the more the chances of them digging thier own grave.. had so much fun offlate facebooking and it has become that way just because of him.. may be i was an akil addict on facebook rather than a facebook addict... and few lines he uses few of his posts am sure for sure would be some of the best ever written in the history if publicized enuf.. truly amazing.. if a man can write think and analyze to that extent he is called a super human being and he is one... recalling "under achievers" may be even after 50 years down the line when we would be recalling our younger days and would surely talk about "under achievers' am sure whatever akil would have achieved by then even if he is a nobel laurette may be still i would call him an underachiever.. he is always an underachiever irrespective of whatever he achieves because so are my expectation son him which never die...


its been a long time since we had those kind of private chats which would charge me up and for sure if there is a reason i miss hyderabad he is one of them... even if i dont talk to him evryday or even once ina month even if i cannot meet him even when i visit hyd even if whatever he is always there in the preferrence list and my mind still tries tobe inhis shoes before deciding on anything... may be if there is some one i admire so much for intellectual profoundness filled with enough flavuor for other things too u know the obvious answer..


and finally on an ending note sending a strong note to the ones at stake... better dont be late friends and miss out on him.. u never know the value of the train u are about to board with a reserved ticket until its there on the platform waiting for you... but once it departs and u still are left on the platform u are the most foolish on the planet.. there might be alternatives but u lost out on the best foolishly... may be u will wait for another train and travel in another mode totally but The journey with akil Express will be like the palace on wheels ... its matchless fasthest and most reliable.


P.S. i havent edited a single line or even a single word in writing this.. i havent even stopped for a minute .. there mite not be a proper structure to this like the previous.. i didnt even think a word before riting and am not thinking even 1 as i write... on whom else can i write so freely barring my family and on whom else can i write so lovingly... this is a dedication post.. not to him but to me... i dont know how quickly the third one will be coming...

CORRIDORS OF POWER

Just like everything else even power can be classified broadly into various categories which have their own control mechanism. Classified into 4 P's

1) Political power

2) Police power 

3) Press power 

4) Public Power

lets start in ascending order as first comes the power of you and me 'The Power Of Public', this is an imaginary power just like the bhoot in a ram gopal varma's film, in practical terms this power has been nullified nowadays by various means which we wil be talking soon. the corridors of people's power have been laid with a very great foundation but hardly we use it.. indeed we sold off this power or rather say outsourced this one for greener pastures called temporary "laalach".. ideally the nation has to be up and running on the pillars of this corridor but where is it happening???


next comes "The Power Of Press" , very powerful. have a very firm grip on the public, if they say that 2 into 2 makes 3 most of us blindly believe it.. they are powerful because some of them can shake the other corridors with their weapon, they are dangerous and capable of any interpretation.. they were pretty good until money started flowing in their corridors.. again "laalach" the greedy.. weakened the strongest pillars of the nation...

"The Power Of Police",very powerful.. the Komaram Pulis, DCP Ramchandras and Vikram Rathores... ya i stand by it.. very powerful against the goons in the movies but against common people in real lives... they exert their power to threaten and steal more than the thieves .... they are legal stealers.. they steal money from the offenders and also steal the show like in movies when they come in the end after everything as happened .... ideally speaking they have to be the watchgods of the nation but they have become watchdogs in the corridors of the rich and the more powerful... again the cause is "laalach".. would really love to see a real komaram puli or a dcp ramchandra for a break..

now comes the real comedy , "The Power Of Politicians", i never would agree with my mom when she used to say that servants are more powerful than the owner but she is absolutely right..
the ideal example for the question of "what happens when your servant runs your home?"
the answer " Our home Becomes like INDIA"
.. ya they run our nation and this is what happens when the public sell their power.. we sold it at the cost of a liquor bottle ,a saree or a high denomination note and your servant has come and occupied your place.. we are a crumbling nation today bcause only money floats in these corridors .. this corridor is overcrowded with the puppets called chamchas of politicians and politicians themselves ... but one thing i like about them which we all should learn is their ethics when it comes to sharing.. they share everything among themselves leaving nothing reamaining to reach the corriodor of public.. they even funnell out small amounts to the corridors in the next two hops to ensure than the most powerful of all will be silenced... they enjoy the real power and thats y we stand where we stand today.. in the gutters of poverty and powerlssness..


MORAL: take your share and get out.. big or small we all are doing the same in all the corridors.. this sharing business is choking our voice and thought...



The descending Order is the solution but how do we do it is the confusion

human "BEING" human

my first question.....
1) Are we human beings???
answer ) 

only the ones who answered my first question 
2)if we are human beings, are we being Human???
answer) 


well thanks for your answers because to know what we are, this small questionaire would be enough.

 I took this small test and I answered my first question as a "no", so I  thought that i am not qualified enough to take the second. Hope most of us realize this truth soon...

yes my dear "Beings" , we are not human beings... because we dont know the power of the word "human" that has been given to us.. but we know only "BEING" and thus we started being "BEING", removing the word "human" from the equation....

Being HUMAN doesn't mean the wonderully structured collection of organs we are born with and proud of but it means use of that structure to do things of its stature.

Being HUMAN doesn't mean being jealous but it means being generous.

Being HUMAN doesn't mean allowing greediness to flow in your body but it means achieving greatness with the same

Being HUMAN doesn't  mean putting everything to your'self' jst like the animals which hunt for their prey and preserve it.. we Beings call them "Selfish" .. but it means "Sharing" anything and everything.

Being HUMAN means
Being "Selfless" not "Senseless"
Being "Perseverant"  but not "Preservant"
Being "Courageous" not "cowardly"
Being "Humble" not "humiliating"


Most importantly Being Human doesn't mean being happy.. it means spreading happiness all around. afterall we are all one and the same.


I agree with the argument that has been running in your mind as you are reading this post.. ofcourse  man is a social "ANIMAL"... please ..... come on!!! now how social are we??? for sure we are all animals ... no doubt about that... we have become ANIMAL BEING with our traits... this has reached such an extent that whenever u see someone thinking like a human being we start patronising them and start saying that they are "very good" "amazing" and stuff like that... but the cold truth is that they are just trying to be HUMAN, and just that... thats just trying.. once that person becomes HUMAN then one can think of being very good amazing and all... lets try to be humans first...

finally in a single sentence  SARVE JANAA SUKHINOBHAVANTU conveys it all... that can make me , you and everyone a human being.Inculcate and Indulge in that thought.

DISCLAIMER:  only meant to hurt the feelings of those who are  not human beings. Beings like me have no relevance orelse.

AGE 63

PURNA SWARAJ ... this was the only aim of all Indians till august 14th ,1947 and it was fulfilled the very next day. In-numerous "sacrifices" were made by our ancestors selflessly and for all that suffering, our freedom was their reward. Most of them have perished leaving the "independent" INDIA in our hands hoping that we would carefully build on and fulfill their dreams,vision and aspirations.

today on the eve of our 63rd independence day I really am confused with the term independence and why did we fight and struggle so hard for it. why did India need independence?? what was expected after independence?? for what or why did people fight so hard for independence?? was it a selfish cause?? did our forefathers have a direction after independence??
 

when I looked up at the dictionary for the meaning of Independence I found out the following :
  1. (n.) The state or quality of being independent; freedom from dependence; exemption from reliance on, or control by, others; self-subsistence or maintenance; direction of one's own affairs without interference.
it says "freedom from dependence" which meant in the pre-1947 context that we were dependent on the British empire for each and everything, "exemption from reliance on and control by" various other external forces in deciding what is good or bad for the country irrespective of what people thought, "direction of one's own affairs without interference " means we decide our own policy and we can plan our country's future .

this is what was intended. My confusion is when do we call ourselves independent???  is it the day we got a chance to become independent or is it the day we achieved it. 1947 aug 15 was the day we got a chance, so when is the day in these 63 yrs where we could proudly say we have achieved it??? does independence only mean that you have your own constitution and a set of rights to uphold your self pride??? does independence really mean enjoying the power of ruling yourself , good or bad??? does independence mean unity or division in the name of caste, religion, region and language??? does independence mean borrowing money from other external sources or forces which dictate terms to u on what you have to do??? does independence mean you can violate the same law you have made?? does independence mean compromise your country's benefit for selfish interests?? or does it mean spending your own money for yourself???

the problem is that we are still in a very big illusion that we are independent , that was not the real independence we got that day.. it was just a path laid to achieve it.. it was a wonderful opportunity given to us to be the change and take the nation forward.. but just after the chance was given, the selfless Indians turned selfish . we put ourselves above our country and still doing the same... the Britishers made us slaves for money and we still haven't come out of it.. we are still dividing ourselves and still delaying our independence.. we as a nation have done each and every mistake possible right from that day failing our dream... our vision of independence ended on Aug 15 on which we thought the road ahead will be an obstacle free path.. instead of facing the challenges that lay ahead we rested peacefully thinking that the biggest job is done... its not the birth of the child my dear friend which is important but how we refine him and nurture him since then is what can make him a good intelligent and independent individual but we thought giving birth itself is independence and are still thinking.....

so my country is only 63 yrs young now but crippled .. its suffering from ill health because of malnutrition.. it is still learning how to walk where others have started running even before half its age... its body is pretty huge with fat everywhere and there are a billion of its organs that depend on it or say that are making it function.. as it celebrates its 63rd birthday tomorrow my country wishes that its organs grow up soon and help it overcome its weakness and emerge strong in front of its colleagues proving that even we are worthy challengers in this mad race.... prove that even though we are a bit slow we still have it in ourselves to make the difference.. and most importantly my country wants to be independent soon like most of its colleagues.

i have a dream

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."   - Martin Luther King jr.

according to me the above spoken words are the most historic and the best lines ever uttered by a person. even today I feel the goosebumps whenever I hear that speech or those sentences. In a society where coloured men were treated not like human but like animals, whose jaws got used to the clenched fists of the "cultured", whose bodies were bunched and sold barbarically , who had a mouth to speak but didn't have a voice. It was all prejudice, superiority , domination against the excess melanined. A hormone whose excessive or lesser levels in the human body lead to the most shameful (may be a very small word) acts in this world.RACISM

RACE is a very important word and it has been the most controversial too. Here was a race which has been suppressed from centuries, whose descendants though human were treated most brutally. They didn't have any rights forget the right to freedom not even the right to speech. Generations have passed , times have changed but not the practices. And these were at their best in America whose constitution boasted to "secure  the blessings of liberty" , but where was it?????


A voice was needed and it was Martin Luther King Jr. and the most defining moment in the American Civil Rights Movement came when he delivered the most powerful "I have a dream" speech. this was a real turning point in the history as it could influence even the anti niggers in the country. Former US president Bill Clinton quoted in his autobiography that he cried only twice in his life and one was after he heard the speech.

That is history on august 28 1963.


46 years later the best ever moment in the entire history of mankind took place( according to me). A black whose father was a Muslim became the first citizen of the same country which didn't even provide a right to vote to the blacks when the speech was made. The event that marked a new beginning and proving the most famous lines in the speech. America became a country which judged a person on the strength of his character but not the color of the skin. equal opportunities which was a dream became more than a reality. It was the time the word RACE bowed in front of mankind who proved that blood was red in colour irrespective of the amount of melanin.  In the eyes of a 102 yr old black lady who was bartered into the country who didnt even have a right to vote for most of her life elected her president with matching skins.



that was the moment i cherish a lot and felt very proud . The term CHANGE has it meaning and we believe in it. If Barack Obama could become the president of Uncle Sam , nothing else is impossible.


I have a dream.

bored???????

today i sit in front of the system so bored that this is the first time am writing something out of boredom... but even boredom teaches us a lesson as my mind has become a devils workshop from the past few days.. getting up late sleeping late in the night, watching some movies on the net , facebook, INCEPTION and finally trying to catch some book but unable to read... unable to read a book gives the correct state of my mind how rotten its become when it doesn't have work.. of course the book i chose is also not a thriller sort but philosophy...

i have some interesting analysis regarding idle minds like me...
>>>when ur mind is idle ur brain oscillates in a closed circle leaving closing all the doors for new thoughts .... ur mind is like a closed room without a ventilator and windows... dark and exhausting

>>>u tend to take interest in the smallest of things which u wouldn't even have noticed when occupied and start analyzing them... its like making an ant look like a mammoth... the silliest of things are the biggest problems in your mind... and u keep searching for a solution or analyze those until u get exhausted..

>>> since ur idle the next big thing u can concentrate on is food.. u keep searching the almaras for junk .... u eat a lot more than needed because eating is the biggest thing that can keep u physically moving..  so got to know what it takes to become obese   an idlebrain

>>>cell phone.. u simply look at the previous mesgs u received and calls and recall the conversations.... try to go a lil deeper into the conversations and pass some time... if u have music on ur fone itseems very boring even if its ur fav number...

>>> the best way to pass out time is sleeping... some who are good at it like me can do it for 16 hrs a day... but that also wont be a good idea because u cannt have a good sleep.. its a disturbed one most of the time in which u wake up atleast very 20 min for sure.... ur mind is sleeping not you

>>>television... u tend to watch the most stupid things which uve never seen before and the best thing is that they start to amaze you... ur mind wouldnt find them silly ...  and a way to know that ur bored .. if u tune all the channels in ur television 3 or 4 times its called  heights of boredom...

 these are few my idle brain told me to write.. hope i find some work soon and keep it busy... written out of utter boredom ....

Impossible Is Nothing

INCEPTION proves my title. I have done two most memorable things this week. The first one was that i visited heaven on earth KERALA and the next is I watched INCEPTION. I had a lot of expectations on the movie like the others as it was my first christopher nolan movie.
          The movie starts of ambiguously and the  first 5 or 10 minutes lacks pace. but once the plot is established in the first 20 min it races for the next two hours.it will be an edge of a seat experience into the new world which chriistopher nolan has created for us. The world of dreams-navigating and incepting them. Nolan takes us into this complex world swiftly with breath taking pace and leaves his audience in awe with the scale and plot of the movie. The tight knitted screenplay takes the movie to a new level where no other film maker could reach before and make the audience think every second. Its a very intelligent movie with all the ingredients in right proportions. as long as u watch the movie u cannot even take your eyes off the screen  and the only thing a participant can do is applaud as soon as the dream ends. Nolan tries to incept so many thoughts into ur mind that even after the movie you will be caught in a storm of intellectual discussion about the movie . there are so many subplots that one fails to understand for the first time and this is a sort of movie that can pull crowds again and again.
                  Scoring music only based on the script  narration by nolan even without watching a single video is very very difficult. But it paid off well with terrific background score by Hans Zimmer. Editing by lee smith and photography by Wally Pfister  are excellent . The actor performances are also commendable.
                 On the whole its christopher nolan all the way with the others lending him good support. It will be a once in a lifetime cinematic experience for the viewers and a new genre has been created. Its the Nolan era now and inception is a pioneering work. It showed the world how deep a man can think and execute it with cinema as a media. I think cinem on the whole will be proud of this movie. Go watch it as soon as u can no matter what. This experience lasts long really long.


P.S thanks to my friend Mr.Srikrishna for incepting so many things about movies and especially inception in me which changed my outlook about cinema. Hope he  becomes a mix of  a seasoned film maker like spielberg and and intelligent storyteller  like nolan. This is written out of my respect for the movie and mr. nolan who made the impossible possible. if i ever dreamt a third level dream even there i would admire inception and promote it.

Sands Of Time

At five years of age : I love dolls and my toys. i dont like anyone touching them. My neighbor complains my mummy when i play with his new train. In school I learned a new spelling today, D O N K E Y makes donkey. I sawd my favorite program MAD in pogo. My daddy told that he will bring chocolates for me today and I not give them to all of you. I will not give biscuits and sweet to anyone in school when I take for small tiffin. I am waiting for daddy to come. Its becoming dark and pussy cat will come if I make noise. My mummy told me that she will leave me near the devil if I make noise,I won't make noise. Finger on my lips like a good kid.



At ten years of age : I got sixth rank this time and I missed five marks in maths, my mummy scolded me for that and I cried. She took away my gameboy and she wont allow me to play on my PSP. I want to cry loud. Now I understood that I should study well and get good marks. My friend got second rank and I don't like it, I will race him next time. When my dad comes he will comfort me and I will sleep beside my dad today.



At twenty years of age: Common dude life rocks this moment. Had great fun yesterday night and all the multiplexes in the city are mine. Really excited about my placement and looking forward for a kickoff. Its time I become more independent and plan my future well. I want to buy a new bike right-away with my first salary . Life's great anyway and I started living it for me and its going to be only ME from now on bro. Fun fun fun all the way.



At thirty years of age : My kid is my life now. My wife is real fussy when I pamper my kid, jealous of me and my kid. Its very important that I plan my kid's future and give the best to the best and the sweetest kid in the world. Settled well in my job but looking for greener pastures so that i can earn more and lead the race. The rat-run is still on for me and I hope I win it in no time. Its more of a responsibility now that is starting to grow and Its no more fun. A man of the multinational now not the multiplexes.



At forty years of age: My kids are growing as I wanted them to and so is my influence at work. Looking at becoming a senior manager soon but need to work harder for it. As a senior manager I will be earning even more and can save more for my two kids. My parents are getting older and it is important to keep them happy and also make sure that they have health insurance. My new duplex that I have planned has come out well but invested heavily on it. Life is smooth now as always but the race is still on and some catching up has to be done.



At fifty years of age: Its too easy now. My elder one has almost settled and my younger one is still at college. My wife and I are planning vacations all over the world now before we get older. It went on just as I planned and life seems to be perfect. It feels great when my children are coming of age and its my planning and execution of things that gave them a good future as I wanted. I spent the first half of my life struggling for me and the next half struggling for my family and it paid off. This is what I term as success and for the world and myself
I AM SUCCESSFUL




At sixty years of age : Everyone is settled now at faraway places and playing with grand children when we go on a vacation to their place gives me immense pleasure. My children take good care of me and I have a loving wife, it still seems perfect but there is something missing in my life. Something which I never cared of or something I ignored for a very long time. Something which I still don't realize is making me spend sleepless nights. I should figure it out soon.



At seventy years of age : SOCIETY. I haven't thought about the people living around me. Right from when I was five year old and the roots of selfishness started to grow. It grew and became a big tree and only my family benefited from its branches. Only we had the fruits and only we took shelter under it but no one. How can the world call me a successful man when I took everything from it and never returned anything. Helping,caring,sharing and finally loving everyone is what makes a man successful. I hardly get to see people coming to my house and spending time with us and these people will soon forget me as soon as i perish. Its my fault and at the closing pages of my life I realize the real essence of life " society gives its share to everyone who are born and everyone uses these resources, But the ones who in return pay back to the society through their actions are the ones who are eternal and successful" . These are my footprints on the sands of time which keep reminding me for the rest of my life that I am a failure. I cannot change time,wish I could.

I CAN SEE GOD

I can see god in the only bright radiation that touches the earth everyday without which the world would die in darkness like the impure minds of bad men.



I can see god in those tiny droplets coming from the sky hitting u with a great velocity and spreading joy across the world except for the ones who drive while they come.



I can see god in the nature which is the collection of the most beautiful things in the world and which is most uncertain, yet teaches me that all days are not the same and the dog's day is yet to come.



I can see god in a farmer who gives me the healthiest and the most nutritious food irrespective of whether he eats it or not.



I can see god in all the machines around me which constantly keep trying to make me more lazy and less tiring.



I can see god in the labor because we are the ones who add the physical dimension to the wonderful innovative thoughts that arise in an intellectual's mind.



I can see god in all the bad things that I do as they constantly remind me that learning from them and getting better is the only option left.



I can see god in my all my friends who are the best creatures in this world and would be the first to help me out when my going gets tough.



I can see god in ROGER for the man he is and also the fact he proves constantly " NOBODY DISLIKES PERFECTION"



I can see god in my grandmother who is an abode of hard work and patience.



and finally



I can see god in the man who has taught me how to live by example from the day i was born and also who makes a difference in whatever he does and that lady who still wakes up and starts her work at 5 in the morning each and everyday just to make sure that her kids and family remain comfortable and happy for the next eighteen hours to come.




These are just to mention a few but the fact is that GOD is everywhere around you.





Watch out with BIG eyes.

fish market

i heard this analogy used in schools especially when children scream a lot,make a lot of noise, make the class untidy , fight with each other and all.. once when the teacher enters the class and looks at the rubbish around she would shout at the top of her voice and say " stop talking!!! is this a class or a FISH MARKET?" i know this because i have heard this a lot of times from my teachers but was always wondering how a fish market would be( i am a veggie).. but i have come across something that would or that can easily replace the so called fish market analogy.. it would be better off comparing such untidy ,unorganized,greedy,noisy or a selfish bunch to the MEDIA rather than a fish market...



its very important for a person to know whats happening around him, (let it be about the country,city ,trade ,movies, sports, entertainment, health, classifieds, advertisements etc )based on these things that person analyses many thing and plans accordingly his future , his priorities etc.. for example if the weather forecast for the day says that it is going to rain he would be well prepared for that.. if one would say that the stocks are going up he would try and buy a few . if there is a bandh or something then he would skip work and all.. ........ so it is very important that one comes to know all these things ACCURATELY .. so the only medium of communication available for getting this stuff is a medium called MEDIA or say the news channels and the newspapers... am sure no one can make a move on any particular issue without relying on this medium of communication... this medium of giving access to information to the general pubic is very very important ... it goes hand in hand with our lives.. anything wrong with this can change the dimensions of our lives both horizontally and vertically..


but we have reached a point where dimensions don't matter anymore just like the information... from the days of highest standards it has crumbled to a new low level of selling news just like fish... from the stage of great ethics to a stage where blackmailing and bartering news has become the prime mover... from the hands of freedom fighters and great leaders into the hands of factionists and liquor contractors... once a strength to the public has become a puppet in the hands of power mongers.. once the most consistent weapon has become more inconsistent than the Indian batting order ... once the voice of the nation has turned into the voice of the ones who turn tables for their selfish interests... can we still call it the fourth estate or is it gifting estates as a return for manipulation ?? can we still get accurate and reliable news from all the media houses?? can we get impartial news anymore??


NO....



POWER... this is the disease that has affected the media and the above mentioned are the symptoms and causes... there is no cure for this disease and its spreading very fast and corrupting everything around... the media is one of the victims but its hitting everything badly leading us into the world of uncertainty... POWER is like a trap, in the beginning you seem to be under control but once you're totally into it you dont even know whether you are trapped or you have trapped.... and the media as mentioned , has become a fish market where every seafood(news) has its own price and season , once the right price comes and the time is ripe then innocent fishes( innocent victims) become the prey....


recent lalit modi stuff,sania mirza episode,analysis on different things, the way the media behaved during 26/11, the way they started publishing redundant news and how this entire thing is blown out of proportion for viewer ship adds more fuel to the existing fire which is taking thid disease to an advanced level... PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE but news cannot be prevented and its better off finding the cure for this...


PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN A SWORD.... its important we start training our young pens from the basics .. make these pens tough at the learning stage itself by training them vigorously with swords called truth and protecting them with armors called sincerity.... these pens should work with team mates like credibility and destroy opponents like greediness... work on plain white sheets which symbolize purity than the colored disguised filth that can never become fair... its only with such pens that great battles have been won without spilling a drop of blood and we need such pens again today to fight an even bigger opponent and crush it before it can crush us into deeper shit.. so the future of the fish market analogy, whether it stays or is replaced, is in the hands of a PEN and how its works from now on...
