Gratitude

I am not creator. I am contributor. I have always expressed my gratitude in my applications, written to the appealing authorities with selfish professionalism to extract favour from their arrogance, in  holding a God like position, in their senses.
Professionalism is always for the self first. I have done all this for my self growth and for satisfying my ego. My ego has been a driving force in my professional journey. It has shown me both short and long paths to tread in this journey of life. I opted the path as per situational demand.

I think my sense of gratitude was not by heart, so it never gave me happiness after any achievement. I was deceiting my self. I had many companions in my professional journey, posing as my well wishers in front of me. But they used to dig  my grave behind me for their egos. That was also a way of showing gratitude.

So, I understand that gratitude is a vehicle that carries everyone’s ego forward. The result of ego may be in positive or in negative, affecting the progress of units of executions. Rest lies in the hand of destiny.
Destiny is torch bearer. It is  controlled  by almighty. It is said that one can change destiny but that is also in control of almighty.

So, I think my sincere gratitude is to almighty. In my journey of life, I show my heartiest gratitude to all who have brought smile and happiness for me without expecting anything. My sincere gratitude in reality is for those who gave me experiences through their behaviours and attitudes. They have prepared me for odds and made me bold for existence. I reveal my gratitude and indebtedness to nature who has taken care of everything for my life. I have no sense of gratitude for my parents because I may not be selfish for them. My all thoughts end with them. They are my beginning and they are my termination. The lap wherein I got love,  peace, security, safety and learned lessons of life has no suitable word in any language of the world for measuring and expressing gratitude. I may reserve my will above all for them. I always miss them. My mother is above all and her lap is above God’s heaven. So, all my gratitude are to everyone visible or invisible in life’s journey.
May I give gratitude to me for always being me. I do am, my destiny. My gratitude is to destiny.

Decision

One stitch in time saves nine. It is always advisable to get repaired the leaking roof before onset of monsoon. We may meet odd challenges due to anticipation and timely taken decisions.

Every part of a body works smoothly, coordinating each other and any disbalance is indicated in the form of problems so that timely curable measures  may be taken by the owner of body. Otherwise, ignoring that, disease may silently develop and may not be cured. This is applicable everyday, everywhere, where coordinated approaches are necessities, be it a family or industry or office.

In the industrialised world mechanisation and artificial intelligence along with robots are easing execution of works in a concerted coordination. But the final decisions are to be taken by humans. However,  brain may not be replaced by any invention or discovery. We may not be slave in such world, lest another political systems should develop. Perhaps racism, caste systems and religious rivalries may stall in that world with different views. Even then, brain is supreme and may not be replaced.

Humans have reached at this level of integrity after many trial and error, so final decision will always be their responsibilities, despite use of other accessories as assistance to brain’s decisions.

The scenario in the world is changing every moment. We are now more inter dependent for growth and developments. In this regard, rules and regulations are dynamic and need consideration and continuous analysis in the interest of respective country. Everyone knows weakness and strength of each other. So, now a days, rapid and accurate decisions are required in every system of a nation. Even the tiny unit has to be taken care of during decisions. Every nut and bolt play role in a vehicle. Any negligence may not be appreciable. Planning and foresightedness are required continuously.

Decision making is complicated process on large scale and needs amalgamation of various subjects. It may be influenced by affinity and by biasness specially where large number of humans are involved. Self interest should not be entertained. Biasness may cost in loosing the best brains. Many conspiracies and secrets are being  unveiled where biasness, self interest or family members are involved in influencing decisions, harmful to the nation. Utmost care with open eyes and ears are required.

We may be successful in every field. Nations may flourish at the cost of others. But humanity should not be endangered. Certain problems should be fought together, hand in hand. Natural problems, for instance, are affecting the globe and need attention. If nations do not timely activate themselves then be ready to pay the price,  destined by the almighty. Take care or play your duffle. Let the humanity perish or save. Decisions are required.

Any nation may be strong and powerful on certain yardstick but may never challenge nature. One may deal alone, natural problem of small extent only. Present continuing pandemic, in different waves, is the example of our limitations and helplessness. Nature has no boundaries and does not distinguish among races or religions. United we stand, divided we fall.

Decisions should be for humanity, peace and all with self identity. Every nation should be careful, as every nation is sailing in the same boat as far as nature is concerned.

Famous

Whether to be famous or not to be famous, I was confused to choose. One day, I finally decided to be famous. Now the proper method was to be adopted. I searched all possible ways in this regard but couldn’t take decision. So I decided to meet  a few  people for guidance. 

I first met my friend and told him that I wanted to be famous. He expressed his ignorance and counter questioned me as to why did I want to  be  famous. I said that I did not know but I wanted to be famous. He accompanied me to assist me  in search of reasons and ways in this regard.

We together met a thief and a gangster and asked ways of becoming famous. They replied because  of spreading fear in public, we became famous by beating, killing and robbing them. Our names had been working now.

We did not accept such views because it was harmful to the society and we left for further meetings with  people. We met one by one with teachers, businessmen, musicians, doctors and players etc. in search of reply. We were not satisfied but we found that everyone became famous by their positive devotion to profession and because of knowledge. The teacher taught students well, the doctor treated patients well, the businessman earned well and helped needy, like that. We saluted all of them but we were not satisfied because we thought this would not make famous for ever. Politicians, master of arts, sciences and psychology could not reply, acceptable to us. Even dignitaries could not reply to satiate us. Success had made most of them, arrogant, less humble and proud of their achievements.

We roamed wherever possible in search of guidance but in vain. Ultimately, we met a religious priest and asked the same question. His emphasis was on karma ( action ) without aspirations of fruits and dedication to almighty.  It could take my time forever. As I was busy in my life, I left this thought.

We returned to our world of actions. We found reply in our mothers who were waiting for us on doors worrying about our absence without information.

All mothers, world over, are always famous because they sacrifice their lives for preparing the future generation and the destiny of nations. They never want anything in return. They take risks for their lives for our births and get satisfaction in our smiles. Mothers! you are always famous of all. I am indebted to you and seek your hands to cross the ocean of world, full of problems. No more words for you, as you are above all in universe. Even God has played in your lap.

Your name is only mother, mother and mother, in all periods. No thanks or words of gratitude are suitable for your stature. Every Mother is a living statue of life.

Fruits of actions

The known results oriented actions attract the most. It is inherent in our nature. We do not  hesitate to react to routine calls as results are known. It is by nature that we think on actions and their results. It is beyond imagination that any action does not bear fruits. We apply our brains where we have to deal with unknown world or relations. A student knows that the result will be as per study but the future is not known. But we know about most of the actions and their results happening in nature. It is known that a seed germinates and becomes tree and bears flowers and fruits on time. The periods of various seasons in different parts of world, barring some exceptional situations, are defined. We know that all actions in nature are not fruitful to civilisations and some of them are harmful. Accordingly we remain ready for results with cautions, except in a few exceptions.

Human Life is not like that. Our lives start from unknown and end into unknown. We know that only a few actions are common in humans but the brain plays major role in many actions and results may or may not be anticipated. This complications of brain  have affected the most and  play main role in imagination and interpretation.
Perhaps brain enjoys and dives into unknown to drive the humans ahead for a cause. Sometimes, there may not be coordination between brain and  actions, between saying  and doing etc. If these are because of diseases they may be curable, otherwise,  they create problems to the whole world.  The selfish attitudes develop and results create more harm than good.   We are witnessing political turmoil and war in different parts of world because of such type of brains. Even nature is sufferer because of the brains.

Human brain is the director of actions. Actions ultimately control results. Results may be useful or useless. Results may be  beneficial or harmful. It is obvious, if we sow thorn we should not expect flower.
We have been accustomed to many activities and their results in so many years, but the technical advancements are influencing the brains and results. We, for examples, are in discussions and researching on the effects of waves emanating from mobiles and mobile towers on brains of humans of different  ages. Apart from this, artificial intelligence and remotely controlled instruments and apparatuses are affecting the brains and healths. Useful researches are being used for harmful purposes. We may assume that both human civilisation and nature are at stake because of criminal brains and technical advancements.

The age old concepts of fruits of actions are same and will never change, but other developments with time throw effects on thinking, means of actions and results. Ultimately we are not controller of all types of actions. In holy book ” Gita” it is said that overall controller of fruits of actions is almighty and we are to obey him. We may only act but by order of almighty.

The day we become successful in regulating the life and death, we may expect to control fruits of actions.

The question and spirituality

If we spiritually think, it becomes evident that life is a question in itself from entry to the exit from this world. The pertinent question of invisible soul may never end. But we can not yield to it and stop asking question. Question has place value, importance and may have quality.
  Every question asked has two main aspects. First the questioner wants to explore and enhance knowledge or wants to examine the answerer. Exploration may make the secrets unveiled to the world and may prove to be venom or nectar for the world and nature, depending upon the traditions and changing thoughts of humankind. Since the world’s  configuration has diversity in social development, biasness, regional cooperation, economic growth and opportunities to excell, the outcomes of exploration  may be useful or useless accordingly. The views of supremacy,  dictatorship, conquer and slavery may get venomous approach towards the same favorable outcomes. Ultimate gainer or sufferer is the world and nature. So before the outcomes are to be on floor, the question on their effectiveness  should be  deeply taken care of. We know the threat and usefulness of the same technology in atom bomb making and nuclear power generation. The atom bomb is being used as threat on the existence of civilisations while nuclear energy is used for the betterment of humankind.
Question asked to examine the knowledge has many aspects of showing the right path, srength, assessing the weak points and generating crave to be one of the best in the field or it may be for mockery of the answerer. This may instigate to know more or generate hatred towards the  questioner.
Thus answers of questions may be useful or useless according to their acceptance by the beneficiaries in the world related affairs. But the same may not be true in case of spiritual world for questions on almighty. Every answer may add to the knowledge on search of the almighty. The most common question on almighty may be about existence. I myself think there is someone to look after and to control not only humans but also every creature on earth. The creator certainly might have abode to welcome all of us.
The only common thing in all creature is the soul which comes in the world on the path of love and departs on own for the love of the almighty who has assigned every one duty to perform in the world.
Every role is well defined for every soul in the nature for assistance in performing the
acts of almighty. So the questions on the almighty may have no different answers,    ” except the style in placing the words in different order “.
It is the sole purpose of the soul to make the question alive in different forms by unveiling the secrets of universe. This question related with almighty is a  bonding factor among all animals, plants and humankind. No one may exist alone but in fact assist each other for existence. This is the secret coding by the almighty. All questions to the almighty lead towards purification of soul from time to time, to do good before saying goodbye to the  world.
Love is the ultimate requirement of almighty. Questions come from love, for the love to all and for the almighty. There may not be  your God or my God. The benevolent God has no discrimination between his own creations. We are the sole reasons for such heinous crime of favoritism, for our sake to prove superiority over others and try to impose our vicious thinking by hook or by crook on weak and helpless people. Even violence, muscle power and fiscal allurements are used for this purpose to increase the followers to please the God. We ignore the godliness.
  There  are many questions but it is the only answer – the God is love and love is God. Any more question may be futile. Live whole-heartedly, God will meet us. Live for all, God will call us. God is so kind.

I am not bad

After a long time, I am in mood. I know that I may learn lessons even from a child. I have been to school to get certificate as license for getting service to be useful to clear dues to the society. I know nature is an open book. I have learnt a lot from it. I have finally understood that nothing is mine. I accept that I have to leave all my copyrights here before departure. I have seen people, hoarding for nothing. They are helpless when government’s agencies raid for  properties purchased disproportionate to their income. But I am astonished to note that  my neighbors are  boasting on raid of income tax department. It proves that they are rich by hook or by crook and having money, but are not traitors. They get more respect, more invitations to attend functions, after raid. Even media give coverage to them.

I have no money and no respect among my neighbors. But I am famous in my area because of by habits of drinking coloured or colourless water, that is tasty liquor for me. It is my best friend and encourages me to do the impossible things. I forget myself and people get entertained in gratis- free of cost. Older ones give intelligent comment, as well wishers of my family and repent on my plight. But the children and young ones enjoy from my drain dwelling. Every dog of my street recognizes me as friend. They take care of me on the street better than sensible neighbours.

Really, I feel myself very bad person for family as well as for the society, when I am normal. I want to meet my natural end at the earliest for benefits of all others.

But I have changed my mood and am thankful to invisible eye opening, ever changing and challenging virus sir’s effect COVID-19, the pandemic. Everyone was fearing by the grace of virus sir and preferred to be in self locked house. What a pleasant surprise- mother nature was happy. Air and rivers’ water have cleaned themselves, pollution free. Sky was clear. For the first time I saw stars twinkling with joy. But I was in trouble only for my sweetie liquor. It was not easily available as there was complete lock down and market with enticing liquor shops was closed. There were complete dry days. I used my days fruitfully, I got some knowledge from discussions on economy by law maker leaders through TV during lock down. This added fuel to the fire and I became a little bit nervous due to non availability of my tonic. But one day virus sir got pity and some shops were permitted to open. It was to my utter surprise that my heart catching, all time attractive and life giving lovely shop of liquors were given first priority. I, for the first time, understood the vital role of liquors in the earnings in economy. I felt proud to be consumer of economy booster. There were cartoons in many news papers and social sites on the importance of brain soothing liquor in economy. It was more encouraging and I felt myself in heaven. But a few state governments raised taxes on my beloved liquors to fill their coffer. It could not deter my determination to be by the side of my enticing bottle, full of energy and enjoyment. I was thanking to all my friends who introduced me to this life changing liquid and made it my habit for ever.

Now, my doubt, on banning  the liquor sale by all political parties in their manifestos during election and there after keeping them in cold storage till next election, was clear. I was so grateful to virus sir that my special role in the economy became evident. I was feeling proud and was on the top of the world. I congratulated myself first time in life on this so called bad habit. I remember a dilogue of a very famous film and think in the similar way for me – I am a drunkard but I am not bad man.
Now, I know good habit constructs but bad habit contributes. Now, I have gratitude to myself. Otherwise, I always pay the same to others and use to be obliged for trivial assistance given by them in carrying me home in night. I, even, usually express thankfulness to not deserving one for nothing. It shows my humbleness, a good habit of liquor’s effect.
Now I have courage to have a demand  that area  around the shop upto certain distance should be declared as prohibited to avoid disturbances in peaceful and heaven feeling, consuming milieu and tress passers will be prosecuted strictly. In such areas of comfort real meaning of democracy is understood and unity within diversity is strictly observed without vested interests. Everyone does not want  disturbances in heavenly sitting, concentration, discussion and at last during unification with bottle wherein soul is floating. Every drop matters for its lovers in the line of water conservation,  where every drop of water is assumed to be saved.
So, neglecting my brothers of pious soul, useful to the nation may have hazardous effects, because this profession is economic booster not only in rainy days but also in happy days. Persons like me are respectable and deserve space in society, because we follow rules and my shops are functioning under license. If possible there may be my day. I am waiting for welcoming function for all our brothers who are contributing in uplifting the standars of living of others via economic growth. We are givers and givers only.
If every one of us give details of direct as well as indirect benefits of this so called bad habits, there will be shortage of papers to jot down. Every drop of pleasure giving, grief removing and idea generating nectar like pious liquid is giving everything and needs proper respect. A separate chapter on liquid economics on liquors should be devoted in the concerned subject. We are finally thankful and express sincere gratitude to virus sir for making known to the world, the power of common but special liquid famous as liquor.

Education

I am expressing my thinking on education first.  Our country is full of diversities in many respect. So there are many differences in education both statewise and educational boardwise. That is  affecting the performance of students at state as well as at  national level in different competitive exams. That is creating many problems in the society.
So such existing system should be completely overhauled for everyone’s benefit.
1. There should be only one syllabus  in every state after class VIII to avoid  the difference in standard of education.
2. If  possible  there should be only one education board for conducting the exam of board level.
3. There may be statewise difference in syllabus in education upto class VIII. There may be impetus on knowledge related with state’s culture, language, traditions, customs, history.
4. Since it is known that a child can learn faster upto certain age, three languages ( mother tongue, national language and English) may be taught from early days.
5. Apart from routine syllabus, certain physical activities, every weekend motivational speech, games, and practical knowledge may be given.
6. The impetus on physical and mental activities should be given to prepare every child for  future as per requirements of time.
7. Knowledge of every aspect of life should be given from early days.
8. The parents and grand parents may also be  involved in imparting the education at primary level to inculcate the family values and importance of united families. It should not be like prevailng parent teacher meeting.
9. There should be only one type of school to avoid status differences and sense of insecurity from very beginning.
10. Every child should get opportunities  to develop in the field of interast from very beginning.
11. Stories of our grand civilisation, national leaders of all walk of life,  achievements of our old generations in revealing the secrets of nature and universe and many more possible well thought facts should be given to inculcate nationality.
12. Since it is  known that many teachers from cities avoid to go to village’s schools, local educated villagers may be involved for this purpose after giving proper training.
13. There may be occasional healthy competition between schools in cities and villages  to know the status of education and need of improvements from students as well as teachers point of view.
14. Since a good sleep is required for complete growth of child the timing of school should begin from 9:30am or later,  atleast for primary level
15. Since primary education is very important for the nation building devoted teachers should be given responsibilities with best salaries. These teachers craft the future of generation so they should not be involved in other activities of government rather they should be continuously judged on the basis of the performance of their students.
16. There should be frequent educational tours and performance should be judged on application of knowledge and practical approach rather ratta mar system of exam and unhealthy competition for number to boast.
These are my views. I  request everyone to express her/ his views in extending it.
