Down the lane

What would you do if you meet a long forgotten friend of your childhood in a unexpected fashion? This just happened to me!! Yes, initially I couldn't recognize them but later that instinct within was helping me to scourge through the memories untouched for many years yet successful to figure-out the missing link.

 Not everyone care about the people they meet in their life time. Especially this era of AI things are more often interpreted in terms of applicability rather than cherishing feel. Its all about pitch-less over the air relationship, that comforting words, that see you soon accomplishment.

Unconsciously we are alienated from our passion of being close to nature. Its not a loss to creation, we end-up being the spookiest. Registered in our DNA, if we keep convincing our blood that human to human link is a farce, the conclusions are made a part of happenings. And it will take generations to rebound.

 

Meanwhile you might be wondering what happened when I met long forgotten friend. Though I could recollect unfortunately opposite person couldn't. I had to retreat gracefully. Nothing concrete might have resulted, but I was content that I had lived the moments without which I couldn't have been so close to memories.

Gram Swaraj

British east India company usurped  $43 trillion out of India. Britsh raj apart from siphoning dignity of Indian citizens, its rule had a major impact on economy of the country. Right from changing trade patterns of the country with outside world till wreaking havoc on agricultural activities of Indian farmer.

 

 

Nevertheless they did make a tokenised effort in building infrastructure by building offices for government administration within the country, introducing rail system and also building educational institutions. But they indeed hadn't accepted India as equals in-terms of proposing equal rights been from view point of 'unwritten' constitution they followed.

This discrimination and plunder of country's resources had a direct impact on countrymen who were convinced they need to dethrone the deceitful rule of imperialism. Taking the lead was non other than man of the moment Shri Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

 


 He understood that first action which is needed is to reclaim rights over economy which had deterministic effect on lives of the countrymen. So he formulated idea to withhold payment of taxes on salt produced within the country through Dandi march and termed it as salt satyagraha. Next he called upon countrymen to stop using foreign garments and resort of khadi. He also emphasized upon gram swaraj to uphold rural economy and develop handicraft materials.

Constitution - binding force

 There is a race and you cannot escape it. Some compete is a background scenario and some in the foreground. Back-end people put the gun on others shoulders whereas front-end people follow a duality theorem.

 

 If there is a factor that incites people to harm others in the competitive race, yes! there are many aspects at risk. One way to see this is people who invade others to expand their point of reach and other way not to allow the truth seeker within your closed group through faked perjury.

We have arrived at a situation where we can conclude that holy things doesn't resonate equality amongst all, wherein its believers find solace in downgrading the competitor instead of upgrading own plus points.

 Alas! thanks to our forefathers who realized this scenario way a head and placed constitution at the top of the stack. They gifted us a factor of liberty and fraternity to run the country not based on any holy scriptures or cultural hegemony but pure factor of debates, discussions and consensus.

Freedom - not an one time settlement

As and when the scalability of loot and atrocities gain momentum with that ignominious state of perception, so shall be weeded out by a perched population ready to pull out all the cards to deny further damaging contrasts.

 When the stage is set and pamphlets have be distributed the only thing required is a that guiding light to put the differences at rest and take rightful part in the momentum to deliver that that results to be adored for generation.

 Congratulation, we have been lucky to cherish our freedom hard fought by our freedom fighters who took all pains yet did not find it interesting to make the future generation bonded to their sacrifices.

Yes, you are right, there has been throbbed effort to draw a bigger line besides that of line drawn by our freedom fighters by established forces as they are finding it difficult to dilute that line always standing as an reflective source of inspiration and deterrence to arrest and budge non-retreating forces. 

The simple reason is that there was nothing magical in entire process of action. The process just demanding your intellectual enlightenment and filtering that heroic pretensions which finds its base among deligitimized herd often behaving dis empowered to stand against the perception managed outlook of the well-off.

I would like to conclude that we are blessed to be immediate generation of freedom fighters who had embraced tranquility and restraint (the qualities which we are slowly bartering in-return for hype and hoopla) despite several diverting aspects of burying the meaningful resentment.

Not in my name

 Why disagreeing is an responsibility? You may like it or not, you cant deny the fact that you are part of herd especially when you are born is most populous country in the world like India. Your education, your job, your social life everything is decided by trend and that trend is decided by herd mentality.

If you think one step further why you are finding it safe to bet on herd mentality you cant simply take the pain of explaining the things to anyone. This goes fine where a social order is created and a protocol exists between group of communicating parties in giving life to certain mechanized version of day to day happenings.


All hell breaks down when this smooth oiled setup is obstructed by one such person who disagrees with the status quo and exhibits his willingness to stand against the wind. Till now the well oiled machinery which was in action for decades and centuries suddenly starts to feel contested. A first kind of reaction that emerges from the system is anger against the contesting party. The primary reason for such a reaction is primarily due to the reason they cant EXPLAIN the rationality behind the existence of such a machinery. They try to nullify the effect of existence of such odd amidst even through manipulation.

When clamour for odd thought process grows in volumes this gives raise to militant actions against compounding voices resulting in counter actions driving the parties involved to harm each other in show of power.

At the outset entire blame is shifted onto to one such person who stood out of the system as root cause and system which was affected by this non cooperation starts to brand him as a traitor. But the fact remains that he has chosen the stand wherein he is not made a party to the actions taken by the system assuming his silence as his concurrence and portray disagreement as his exhibition of feeling responsible to activities happening around him.

Pollination of memories

It was not a usual weekend as everyone in the family wanted to get ready for a wedding ceremony. A mother was not only expected to dress up herself but also make a perfect costume for her kids. On other end father was thinking about what should be presented to the inviter to make the occasion memorable. He also needs to cross check on preparedness of the family members.

 The car booked for the wedding venue arrived at the doorstep and everyone hustled around the car in response to the honking by the driver. While everyone on the way mother suddenly tried to recollect whether she had locked the regulator of gas stove and father assured that everything was checked before locking the door of the house.

Mother who was glancing through the photos of the wedding in old age couldn't help but shed tears on those memorable days when they traveled as a family which was soul satisfying as against the present situation wherein her kids settled in foreign abroad settled with their own families.

 We never know when our honeymoon period with soul mates end due to situation of career lookouts or misunderstanding due to money matters or due to conflict of interest. Never miss an opportunity to spend time with family and friends as they make your life memorable, the moments that never reoccur once you miss the chance due to worldly things.

Equity amongst diversification

Do you have a slightest idea that not everyone enjoys that freedom of reading the material you are exposed to like you are doing right now. You are one among those highest intellect that you are still not schooled for the sake of safeguarding someones rosy picture.

 

When i say not everyone it has many faces. Like that of those who are those practicing minimal dialects or way of societal exposure. They are not taken seriously as they are not in a position to overpower or overthrow.

Its basically human psychology that when you see a single lame dog you stone it and when you see a pack of ferocious dogs you feel intimidated. But that the animal world and we are supposed to be humans.

 In a civilized society not quantity but quality matters and every individual is respected and adored for his/her unique contribution to the collective conscience.

Connected islands

Domino game is one such game which extracts most of your patience while arranging the pack of items in a particular fashion and requires careful placements of objects.

Life is one such domino game where we keep arranging our day to day moments in a particular style and vision which is unique to the individual who has been under the influence. Individual decide the characteristics of such placements which will later be invoking the path and performance.

Once the arrangements is made there comes one tick from a profound personality who flips the coin and you stand with crossed finger eagerly waiting for that impact which you are welcomed with to be greeted with a entirely blush scenario to give that satisfaction of connecting the dots.

Yes you have spent tens and thousands of seconds to sow the items in a particular detail and the next minute decides what you are about to munch. You will never look back at the passed period but will be filled with enthuse for having achieved to impress your harbinger.

Age of information blitzkrieg

Information has become cheap, So has its veracity. Gone are the days when we used to wait for the sources to watch out for our means of information. Waiting for that early morning news paper or favorite news hour on a bonafide TV channel or official communication from a legacy organization about the next big thing around us.

 But now the scenario has completely become user centric where information waits for the user and reminds its presence in their inbox in the form of push notification. It even wants you to feedback on whether the information was useful or not to serve you much better.

Question remains how this information has played a role in its portrayal of things around you. Its the age of free source and paid source. Paying for the information is the last thing one would do if he is already burdened by the acute poverty except for the admission forms of school, hospital and employment.


This one single reason has become the play field for non-authetic information from attacking the vulnerable and thus keeping the disillusioned away from the realities which could have otherwise played a role in changing the scenario of collective conscience w.r.t matters of shaping the future.
