Reason to live !!!

Every life is accompanied by a reason...and this reason shapes that particular life!!! Well well...I do speculate about the reason associated with an animal but I could have been successful in this direction if there was someone who would have taught me animal language.. LOL!!!

I do understand the language of human beings, so it is easier to make out the reason for this species!!! Do you know the most basic  reason associated with a person to lead a life? It is the fact that- " S/He is born and hence needs to live." and to live they speak or communicate with the others who have already hoisted their flag on this earth!!

Apart from the above basic reason, but let me tell you that apart from this basic reason I have seen people who have the below set of reasons associated with their life:

a. Compete with the people around and dominate them

b. Learn new things and showcase before the people

c. Earn good amount of money and materials

d. Enjoy the world with addiction quality

e. Do, what the neighbor does

f. Conquer the entire world

The above are some of the silly reasons practiced by a person which are next level higher than the basic reason. Following are the set of reasons which is one step further in the ladder:

a. Raise a family and take care of it with love and care.

b. Help the poor and needy

Now I would like to introduce you to the next set of reasons:

a. Work for improving the level of humanity

b. Instill a sense of goodness in the hearts of people around

Finally you can also find people with filthy reasons in their mind-

a. Harm the people around to intimidate them

b. Never allow happiness to flourish around

The above are just few of them but many more reason flourish in the minds of people and each one is Uniquee...try to figure out the one in the minds of your loved ones...!!!!

 

Come on !! I met scientists!!!

Scientists !!! I wasn't sure about that factor which made a person with a tag scientist associated with him so famous. I too shared the same picture of an old man with a long white beard and uncombed hair wearing a white apron and playing with some mixtures of chemicals to be associated with a scientist, as seen in our films!!!

But believe me, Scientists are really nature's best pick who are allowed to decipher the same!! Stopping the drumming phase because I know that I have been heard loud enough, through this article I wish to share my experience about the ways and habits which a scientist believes in and I have seen those individuals too close. Guess the number of them , it is around 20 odd collection in a single building. 

Welcome to NCBS ( National center for Biological Science), situated near GKVK Bangalore midst lush green trees!! I am not going to elaborate on general detailing as the same is available at the site http://www.ncbs.res.in , if you can find a common factor in my previous postings the same factor will greet you over here.

After much dilly dallying , I was able to join this institute as a technical trainee exactly one and half year ago and my duty was to cater to the electronic needs of the institute-it is a very brief explanation. Concentrating on people who are the pillars of institute, scientists.They are the true stars.

And life of scientists is self defined and self reliant. I can explain their cycle as follows. Every scientist was a student to  another scientist working under him/her on a specific project which will earn them his/her doctorate. As those students gel with the scientific life, they identify a stream in science which requires their contribution or the stream which they think will help the human race, to prepare a report mentioning the aim of proposed research, infrastructural as well as man power requirement for the same. Based on the report, they request for a grant from organisations who are ready to invest in the research.With grants in hand, it is all research for the scientist and his/her group consisting of students i.e. aspiring scientists. Scientists at regular intervals put forth their hard earned research papers informing about the progress made in the research.

The above were procedural aspects of research, but more than these procedural aspects, it is the commitment and integrity of person in limelight which I would say is something great about!! In the world of experiments, a scientist has many duties to fulfill as below:
a. Make maximum use of the time and money invested upon him/her
b. Identify latest equipment in the market required for his/her experiments
c. Plan his/her laboratory for its maximum use
d. Select proper kids i.e students because mischievousness can really spoil the game
e. Work day and night on the experiments
f. Prepare appropriate reports to be shared with the investor
g. Finally end up discovering or inventing something useful to this world

And this is done solely on the basis of self interest with no one to push them up but many people to block for rather distasteful reasons.So a scientist is really a self supported and self pushing individual always busy doing something to satisfy their positive interest!!!

And I have to mention name of the scientist Prof. Obaid Siddiqi, an 80 year old personality with a zeal to discover something more in the field of life science. I cannot explain about the importance of his discoveries so far as I am a distant relative of life science but by speaking few words to him I can say that he understands life from bottom to top in its positive spectrum. But sadly I couldn't fulfill his request for a milli-volt amplifier till the end of my career at NCBS. It will take years to read the total collection of books at his work place!!!

So, it is all about commitment to our work and making a positive movement in life which makes a human being distinguishable compared to the losers/sufferers around...Hope you enjoyed the little write up!!!

Language of learnt...A short story!!!!!!

There was a heavy traffic jam on a busy road and Kishan was getting late to a meeting!! Unable to bear the delay he yelled at his cab driver midst making calls to his company!! Cab driver got down from the cab and walked a few minutes to know the reason for the blockage.

A person riding a two wheeler who tried to jump the signal was hit by a bus from the other side, blood was spilled all over the road and his pillion rider who supposed to be a friend of rider was seen limping yet fighting with the bus driver. Driver of the cab named Anwar as he reached the accident spot was shocked to see that the guy hit by the bus was a known to him and his name was Shabbir, a relative of elected representative of the area where he resides. He immediately tried to pacify the duo and asked the pillion rider to take the person to the hospital and by then police as well as ambulance had rushed to the spot. Police took the bus under their control and asked the driver to ride the bus to police station whereas the victim, who was bleeding as the helmet was not on his head but was in his hand during the course of accident, was rushed to the hospital in the ambulance. 

Anwar, informed the matter to the elected representative and walked to the cab. By then the traffic blockade was cleared and Kishan heaved a sigh of relief as he was assured to reach meeting venue at right time by the driver. Cab driver Anwar was getting calls on his mobile from other relatives of the Shabbir and he was busy answering them. Kishan, who finished his last minute corrections of his presentation, took some time to know about the accident. Anwar readily explained him about Shabbir, a rude personality of the area.

To begin with Anwar had some sympathy for the victim but later termed the entire accident as a punishment to a arrogant person. Anwar began to speak , "I know that to lead a life in this world we need to be fearless and should take some risk in life but there is a limit to everything and the one who is fighting for his life in the  hospital failed to acknowledge that LIMIT. Any fight in our area will have his involvement and more than his involvement it is the involvement of his physic which made him settle scores with the opposite. Decided never to hear anyone as he was fed with a belief that he was always right by his wicked father and mother who are no more which again a result of their wrong doing killed by their enemies. I find people who fight for themselves, their place, food, pride etc. Do you think it is correct?"

Kishan was surprised by the question but not amazed and answered, "Fighting! I like that word very much because it defines our qualities and I have no complaints about it but yes fighting for a selfish needs does take the humanity away from us. I am on my way to meet a foreign delegation who here to find a probable working partner. And I am a representative of my company, to be simple a soldier from by company sent to  conquer that opportunity and I am going to fight with others for the same. But we give respect to BASIC HUMAN VALUES. I mean I will meet my opponents, greet them, speak to them, have lunch with them, some of the opponents are friends whose family members are known to me. With this basic level of courtesy requirement satisfied we then fight for our companies which we represent for. My opponents will speak about the advantages and disadvantages of investing in their companies and I will speak about mine. Based on the level of our competency factor the foreign delegation will choose its partner. The winner will all be in smiles and losers will concentrate on the other work in their list of to do's. We shake our hands with each other wishing best of luck to the winner and try to improve our weakness. So the entire process has a theme and it is WITHIN FRAME OF HUMANITY."

Anwar was very happy with the explanation and wondered," Exactly the same is missing in the people which I am surrounded by. There is no consideration for that MINIMUM LEVEL OF HUMANITY and language spoken by us is quiet ugly as we do not believe in the LIMITS. The guy who died is of that type who will stoop to any level, never to hesitate from committing a crime for getting his work done. Since he had close relationship with elected representative he never feared from Police too and never feared for law of land."

And a call reached Anwar's mobile informing him about the death of Shabbir due to excessive bleeding and Kishan was sorry for the deceased and spoke, " So when you analyse the life of Shabbir you will observe that he lived a life of an animal, never to understand his humanity and human values such as love and care. I bet his soul will never be satisfied with the type of life lead by Shabbir to return back to this earth. The one who learns , understands and follows the human values shall be fully satisfied irrespective of his caste or creed and will never like to be born again on this earth. I appreciate that you had been able to observe the animal in Shabbir but I bet you can stay away from committing same mistakes as done by Shabbir, Fight for the human values which will help you become more human, for your family which loves you and wishes for your happiness, for your nation which provides a place on this earth to earn and learn but not for your ego and selfish desires."

The cab reached the office and Anwar as well as Kishan found good friends in each other...

The theme of the story is to highlight the importance of MINIMUM LEVEL OF HUMANITY in our life which is missing from the people who then suffer for the mistake.

Way to move on-!!!!!!

World of politics is something a great battle within, we see everything - corruption, crime, grouping, threatening, fight, lies, cheating, framing etc etc.

In simple words, politics is all about finding a common ground for a group of people and the person who achieves success in this direction emerges out as a winner.One can find out the common ground by understanding the mind and soul of the people around. But I am not here to speak about politics but it is more about contrast which was observed by me while following the incidents which took place in the politics at national level.

For those confused citizens let me brief about the political situation in India. There was a parliament session held recently and three CAG (Comptroller and Auditor General) reports were tabled which showed the present Govt. of India led by UPA ( United Progress Alliance) headed by Mr.Manmohan Singh in a poor light raising questions on his credibility because the three reports were about losses which Govt. of India had to bear due to wrong policies followed by the government.

So the first part of the story is clear. Next, it was all bashing up of UPA government by BJP which had blocked the parliament from functioning demanding resignation of Honorable Prime minister who is Mr. Manmohan Singh. The status quo was maintained, with UPA blaming State governments for the so called losses in distribution of Coal gates and BJP blaming the UPA government.

There was a scenario when everything seemed to be settling and a writ petition requesting the intervention of Supreme Court of India into alleged Coal gate scam was requested by a petitioner which was accepted by the Court and sent a notice to Coal ministry for its response. The same evening Govt of India announced number  of decisions under the banner called "ECONOMIC REFORMS" which included increasing the price of diesel, limiting the number of subsidized gas cylinders and allowing the FDI in multibrand retail.

Second part is concluded and final part is about agitation. The so called reform measures announced by Mr.Manmohan singh failed to convince the opposition parties as well as some of the parties within its alliance which resulted in protests in the form of Bharath Bandh. One of the party within the UPA called Trinamool Congress under the leadership of Shri. Mamata Banerjee raised her voice against the price rise, cap on subsidization gas cylinders as well as FDI in multibrand retail. She gave an ultimatum to the Government and threatened to withdraw support from her party to the UPA. But for the reason best known to Shri Manmohan Singh none of her requests were accepted by the Congress party which is the decision maker of the Alliance/group.


The problem with politics in India is that no one behaves as spoken by them, for example there will be a promise which will not be kept, there will be a manifesto which will not be followed and there will be a deadline which will not be met. People had same doubts on the deadline of the Smt. Mamata Banerjee and wanted to know her true colors.

She gave a deadline of Five days which was then extended to one more day, there was eagerness among all the stake holders to see whether this lady too will go back on her terms. The deadline was over and she came and sat before the mics of the press who were readily recording and broadcasting her statement to the viewers. She impressed everyone. She withdrew her support for the government and her decision was purely based on her principles ie. protecting the interests of Maa (Mother), Mati (Land) and Manush (Human being).

Fantastic was her decision!! Because here we see a person who stood on her words and took decision based on the principles believed by her rather than calculating the advantages and disadvantages which is the  basis for politics in Modern India.Just observe Mr. Mulayam Singh Yadav of Samajwadi party, he protests against UPA but still supports UPA. He is playing a dual role. Now it is no tough task to be on the either side of the fighting group for you will never loose. Some people may call it as intelligence but I term it as bull shit!!!!

And thus a debate can be started with above story as the basis i.e. life based on advantage and disadvantage as a factor and life based on principles as a factor.

Get ready for a storm of life- I can link the politics with feel of love between two people. Even in politics there are two people one is called a Leader and another is called a follower. But in love we call the individuals as lovers.

If you ask two loving people , a reason for their union they will simply say that they feel like loving each other and nothing else. Try to explain them about the advantages and disadvantages of loving a particular person which most of  the probable lovers searching for a pair do i.e. they try to look at the money possessed by a person, his/her stature, beauty etc etc and make some filthy calculations and then decide to love; a pair who are truly in love with each other will send you packing because they do not believe in the factor of advantages and disadvantages instead believe in the meeting of their principles followed by each individual in his/her life.

Advantages and Disadvantages can be used a criteria for selection while buying some machines or materials in return for money because by buying a machine  with maximum advantages we can use make use of the machine for best use. But while choosing a person i.e. as a leader, as a wife or a husband we need to see how committed a person is to his/her principles because a person who doesn't go against his/her principles will never ever cheat anyone in his/her life.

So is about Ms. Mamata Banerjee committed to her principles and she will never cheat her followers as done or being speculated of Mr.Manmohan singh/ Mr. Mulayam Singh yadav. But I find people making fun of the ones who are principled in their life and term them as fools who do not change.

I would like to warn them that it is easy to lead a satisfactory life among principled people as they will never back stab you  but by leaving with the one who often change colors based on advantage and disadvantage factor  you will end up wasting your precious life time by putting the people around under scrutiny!!!!!!Be careful!!!!!

  

Best fight in the world- @ Parliament of India

My country is great!!!!

Do you need to know why? Obviously for the reason that we fight great for great reasons!!!!

A person may not have enough food in his house to feed his family but when there is an attack on his religion he will FIGHT. He will have a leader blowing the trumpet on a podium in front of a mic being heard on a loud speaker.My fellow Indian will be hearing him either being seated on the branches of the trees or on the stones near edges of the ground. Traveled by free bus arranged by beloved leader and assured of free food as well as money at end of the day.

He is looted of his money, a right to live freely, his privilege in this society as well as his identity, but still he doesn't care.He doesn't wish to question the integrity of his master as he believes the guy from  heart.He is taught to believe his leader, work for him and obey him.

But our beloved leaders look at the heads of such people as stepping stones towards the treasure to involve themselves in various scams- 2G, CWG, Coal, and don't see them as a fellow human being whose emotions and feelings needs to be respected.

I am wishing to see a leader who has this sense of feelings towards the voters whom they represent in the parliament. Till then big fighting tamasha will continue to entertain me and we will boast ourselves to be the great democracy in the world as told my Shri Pranab Mukherjee, President of India.
 

  

Calmness Vs Activeness - A short story

Many of you would have heard the story of a race between Rabbit(Hare) and Tortoise. A fast front running Hare looses to Tortoise. Principle moral of the story emphasizes on importance of steady continuous growth and its advantage over fast intermittent successful acts.

This particular story just popped into my mind when I happened to visit a medical practitioner along with my mother as she was feeling ill. There was a big queue and we needed to wait for our turn. Many patients were pouring in and Doctor was busy examining  patients taking his own time. There were all kinds of patients from old to young, male and female etc. There were two babies aged around five years belonging to two different mothers.

I was watching antics of those babies as I had no other work over there than waiting for my mother's turn. The two babies had quiet a contrasting behavior just like those between a tortoise and a rabbit. One baby was so active that it never wanted to stay with his mother and kept slipping from her hands. He wanted to move all around the place. Occasionally came to me but was much interested in the key bunch of my two wheeler and began to play with it. Just few minutes, baby had a change in its mood which made him to  leave the key bunch and started to roam around again. His mother was tired of taking him back along with her but baby wasn't hearing the mother. At last his grandmother who had accompanied the mother and baby lost her cool and punished the baby with a slap on his face and baby had no other go but to sleep on the lap of grandmother crying. Crying , crying baby went into a sleep mode.

The other baby was watching all these activities standing silently besides his mother tightly catching hold of her leg. He had a calm vision , observing the world around him rather than roaming around restlessly like the other kid.

Now I had a guess about the future of kids with this state of mind practiced by them.Majority of the people in this world are restless for various reasons, some worry about their family, some worried about their  income, some worried about their nation, some worried of their religion and some worried about the worries of restless people . The baby who was restless by birth will find no difference in the environment around as he grows, he will add to the list of worried people.

But the one who is calm and satisfied with his look will be looked upon as a alien among the group; And most of people with this type of  calm behavior will see their interest meeting at spiritual world. 

The question is about the upper hand i.e should I say being calm is good for life or being active/restless is good for life? 

Confusion does makes a house in one's mind when such questions are posed because they are of such type. Personally, I like to be calm because it gives me opportunity to observe the world around in a better way than jumping the gun on certain matters hurriedly. This calmness makes me look dumb as many of the people around me believe in concept of activism. People also believe that in the path of activism there is no need to worry about wrong steps but fast execution of the thoughts matters. I argue about the need to do a wrong act and then correct it when I can be first time correct by being calm and composed though little slow.

The world is really a mix up of calm and active people, one does something wrong and other corrects it. I wonder the use of service engineer if all the equipment manufactured worked correctly. So is the use of calm and cool minded people to correct and encourage active bulls!!!!Both have their own purpose to serve in this world..!!!!




    

The two worlds- a short story

"And my path is fixed to a direction and it is of business, wishing to become a greatest deal maker of the world. Each second of my time should be converted into money, each transaction should bring me profit." determined words by Shigur, a budding businessman.

"The deal sounds great but will burn your time into ashes reserved for your family and friends.They were with you as a support stick at required times. But now it is all you, they want to be and not a businessman.Cant you hear their hearty call?"serious questions being raised by his wellwisher Suraj, a social worker.

"Oh!Yes.I know these caring friends and family members. Friends stayed away from me, family members sat on my head and it was a time I was jobless at home, searching for a path which will give me reasons for going ahead in life. And now I have no obligation to take their words into my heart which had no sympathy for my state of mind," a visibly confident yet with sadness in voice spoke Shigur.

"Very common deduce!!! should have thought differently/happily! You are extending the line of sadness to extend beyond your limits which was started by your friends and family members as said by you. The problem is that though you know to identify the problem,you have chosen to react to the problem instead of solving for the same. I dont want to be preachy but you shared something personal with me, a good friend of you, and I cannot be mute listener," clear was the reaction of Suraj.

"Think different!What do you mean by it? I know to think not to think differently! When someone insults me, I know to insult them back and I was taught to react or think so! When my friends or family members insult me I have no other option but to insult them back as a punishment to their rude behaviour. What better idea can you suggest me? Do not compare yourself with the rest of friends as you were the one responsible for me to come out the negative world and gain a confidence in the unseen future.I respect you hence I do not feel like venting any type of ire on you," thanksgiving Shigur had his mind expressed.

"A mind which thanks others without any hesitation deserves an entry to the other world. Welcome Shigur. Its good that you were able to acknowledge my effort of getting you away from the darkness but you are not completely insulated. Believe me and in my ability of letting you to touch the other world," with surprize in mind Suraj was kindling the excitement factor in Shigur.

"You are a good friend of mine but never expected you to fool me. Firstly you spoke about the thinking differently and in order to explain about the same now you are raking up the issue of other world.Never were you so surprising! You need to explain me in depth and I am not going to rest without the same," so was Shigur adamant in his approach

"Let me put it simple-We are living in two worlds! A world based on materialistic contents where you need physical power and money to gain prominence. Second world is based on feelings such as love, care, justice etc. Now when I wish to define more about these worlds, it is always better to compare them. A world based on money is quite relative and can be tampered. You are considered to be rich in a group of people whereas this money means nothing when you are alone. There is a easy route to gain prominence in this money based world, requirement is a set of lies and illegal actions, This will make you king/queen of this world.

But the other world based on feelings is more personal i.e. there is a individual accountability. The one who has appreciable qualities of love, care and an interest to follow the rule of justice without yielding to personal likes and dislikes shall stand out successfully to enjoy state of satisfaction based happiness. When you think, it can be related to an act of moving ahead in the world of money which includes decision to steal, cheat, threaten, kill etc. or thinking can be based on the idea of moving ahead in the world of feelings which is to love the people around, care for them, work hard, be sincere to self and people around," Suraj was in full throttle.

Shigur wasnt speaking as he was speechless and had never thought about the other world till this second. He took a walk alone to later return and speak," I can connect to each and every word spoken by you so fluently. I can feel my mind meeting your point or idea about life. So I can be happy all alone as I am good and had never thought wrong about people around even in most troubled times. I worked hard to get my business develop and never resorted to criminal activities when devoid of a job. I am good and am feeling very much happy about it Only wrong thing I did was about the idea of punishing the people who never know about the other world. I will revert my stance and I know that now my duty to share about the other world with others as you had with me. Love you my friend and I can feel how happy you are from within your heart."

Try to relate yourself.... :)
