EXPER!ENCE THE THR!LL @ LIFE!!

  May I be at peace May my heart remain open May I awaken to the light of my own true nature May I be healed May I be a source of ebullience. Whenever we listen or use the word spirituality, we tend to assume that the word might be related to religion, portraying cultural views. People may describe a spiritual experience as  sacred  or transcendent   or simply a deep sense of aliveness and interconnectedness. I started off intriguing about the essence of spirituality when I was a 20-year-old and wanted to share my thoughts on its relevance in current situations. In my view it’s the realization of man’s real nature. As Swami Vivekananda said Religion is realization; not talk, nor doctrine, nor theories, how beautiful they may be. It is about being and becoming the person you are.   Spirituality is a broad concept with room for many perspectives. In general, it includes a sense of connection to something bigger than us, and it typically involves a searc...

1.Technology juxtaposition Today I was vouching through Netflix for a good documentary and I found “The social dilemma” documentary to be promising, relevant for this generation about how social media is making us get addicted to the feeds, ad’s, notifications, etc.. Consider this paradoxical question: since all tools are made by humans, must not all human-made tools express our humanity? Are tools and technologies inevitably humane because they’ve been made by humans, and thus are extensions of someone’s humanity? And so, bluntly, am I then also responsible for them despite my clear-eyed everyday sense that some innovations are humane while others are not?  The boundary between the human-made world and humans themselves is increasingly hard to draw.. Today, given the primacy of digital technology in mediating human experience, aren’t we species fundamentally shaped by personal technologies: past, present, future? So anticipation,foresight and understandin g ...

“We need to keep changing the attitude that teaches men to feel threatened by the presence and success of women” -Barack Obama To me, feminism means working towards achieving global gender equality. Everyone is born equal, regardless of gender, race, or sexuality. However, there are so many aspects of life in which people are not treated equally: politically, economically, legally, and socially. Feminism is about working against the systems built to keep certain groups of people oppressed and striving towards equality for everyone. Below are amazing words by Ex-President of United states: We need to keep changing the attitude that raises our girls to be demure and our boys to be assertive, that criticizes our daughters for speaking out and our sons for shedding a tear. We need to keep changing the attitude that punishes women for their sexuality and rewards men for theirs. We need to keep changing the attitude that permits the routine harassment of women, whether they’re walking do...

My dad always told me one thing right from childhood which got implanted in my mind and I would never overlook for rest of my life: “Simple living, high thinking and simplicity is the ultimate erudition”. I do have a query which triggers my thoughts everyday: Are we truly contented with what we are and is there a conclusion argument for contentment at any point in life? Let me walk you through the contentment I get in a day. Every single morning, I put forward my profuse thanks and earnest gratitude to god for providing me with an opportunity to endure to do something prodigious for what I was predestined for. Sometimes when I wake up early, I feel energetic and contented that my day would be filled with miracles and breakthroughs but if I end up rousing up late, I feel indolent/idle throughout the day. It starts with accomplishing simple tasks like you were able to fix a bug in the design, answering your coworker politely, cooking your favorite food, shopping at your favorite ...

" Resilience isn’t flying through without tears. You don’t need resilience to get through the easy stuff. Resilience is being knocked down by something, struggling through the mud, and standing up again, even if limping and on one leg, but standing up to fight another day.” The past few weeks has been surreal for the whole world. As I started capturing my thoughts am kind off vicarious and feeling dejected, unhappy that am not able to help/serve the needy one’s in the world which is quite unfortunate. In this moment only thing which matters is how doctors, health care workers are handling millions of patients suffering from this havoc pandemic, it’s massively disruptive and for many people it has been intensely stressful dealing with this catastrophic situation for them. I can imagine the nerve-wracking days, sleepless nights they are going through and it’s our individual responsibility of stabilizing the pandemic. No one knows how long this pandemic will last, or how long ...

PART-IV: An impact-full interpretation of defense daughter  "Your value doesn't decrease based on someone's inability to see your worth". We flaunt our army background a lot which is why we may seem proud or bratty .But I think as Army kids ,we're raised to be really independent ;you don't see your dad around much and your mum is holding the family together and it's almost like she's a single mum. We're two kids and our dad always made us carry our own bags ..I was never treated like a dainty girl and was raised tough (though after retirement I became his princess though) .As defense brat I would not have traded my life for anything else. I loved the nomadic life, the uncertainty of the next posting, the excitement of packing and moving to a guest room for that period, shedding tears for friends who knew we’d never meet again, and then the unpacking and settling down at another station, making new friends, and going to a new school. I inter...
