Is this heaven?

February 29, 2008

Few days before I was surfing through orkut and checking the latest updates my friends have made. I checked out Nishir’s profile to found out that he has been married and had gone to some place named Krabi may be for honeymoon or may be he was working there (I dont know the exact reason). He had put up some pics of him and his wife having a wonderful time in that beautiful place. On some of the pictures he had left the comment saying “Is this heaven?”.

Even I was amazed to see the wonderful pic of that place, but then at that moment itself thought just crossed my mind. That place was not alienated, its the place on the same earth where we are staying for millions of years. If that place is beautiful then every other place also should be the same. If that place is what can be thought of as heaven then this earth also should be.

This all leads me to the assumption of thoughts to find the answer of the same question “Why are we here?”. If the place like Krabi, Singapore are compared to heaven then everything else should be too. We all have heard from our ancestors how earth was a beautiful place with lots of trees and mountains and rivers – which are nature’s most beautiful ornaments which makes this earth look so beautiful. But then they are not in the same state as it was before, we are losing trees day by day and water is getting messier everyday. If all this would have happened naturally – it would have been fine. But then the answer is big NO, its not happening naturally, its us HUMAN who are tryin to ruin the state of world. Its us who are cutting trees, drilling mountains and making water dirtier and air unbreathable day by day.

The question to be asked ourselves is why? Is it going to make our life better and make this earth a better place to leave?
If yes. Great! Then I am glad that you found a way – before I could even start – to make this earth a better place to leave.
If no. Please let me know who can stop this all.

Why are we here?

February 17, 2008

Its been a question running on my mind all the time and the answer is still unknown. The reason I’m writing about it is because I just read blog on one of my online friends blog. (link: Rohan Ranade: Nobody cares including me).

Well when I was designing my first website I wanted to write something about myself and I started writing and end up with one line saying “The mystery behind we all human-beings staying here on earth with the company of all living beings like trees and animals.” I was amazed with the thought: its really such a curious thing why are we here ?? And whats the purpose of us being present on this earth which a a tiny part on this endless Universe.

Well when I read Rohan’s blog, I thought even I should write my views about it.

Well as Rohan said its not really a philosophical type of question we should asking ourselves – but its so real and is such a important question. For example: We study now-a-days and run behind getting good score not because we like subjects but to get score and then get a good job in future. There are exceptions where people love subject and go on doing research and try to find the mystery behind existence of something (scientists for example…). See on whichever side of fence you are you are doing it for some purpose. If everything has some purpose then there should be surely some reason and purpose of us being here on this earth.

As far as my knowledge is concerned about the history of human beings and the evolution of man, we have evolved a lot from being simply an ape to the human being of present. This is an example that everything on this world is changing and we are able to see the change and yes we are moving ahead. But the question is where? Are we moving to accomplish some goal, to start a new journey or towards an end.

I would like to write more about it. Soon will be contributing to it…

An Ultimate Human Power

February 16, 2008

The power that can travel faster than light. It is this power that can make you travel through the time i.e. to the past and to the future too. Also it can make you go to any place in this world within seconds. It’s nothing but your thinking power.

I still remember while studying history whenever the encounter between chatrapati shivaji maharaja and afzhalkhaan was narrated or read i always went to that time and did actually saw all those events happening. It was mere my thinking power that got those pictures in front of my eyes and believe me i did saw all the things happening right here in front of my eyes.

Also when we think about doing something in future we can and do visualize all the things that could happen. We can actually see the things happening through our vision and then we can make a decision to go ahead or to drop the idea.

Also when we remember the sweet memories of some summer vacation spent at some place, we actually go there and see all the houses, roads, trees, etc. Right here in front of our eyes even though when you are thousands of miles far away from it.

Thinking power – one of the most precious power given to us by the almighty at no cost. You think – and you will see yourself change. It is just the way you think that matters, in this world. You think someway, and it is that way. No one can change your thinking. No one can stop your thinking.
Your thinking is your power, your self-respect, your confidence, your belief, your identity, your thinking is you (yourself).

So what are you waiting for – believe in yourself, just think about all the things happening around you. Think the way you can make it better, think the way you can contribute to make it better. Believe in your thinking power.
Think to go places. Think to live. Think to let live.

Believe in yourself & today itself think of something that will make the people and all the things around you feel better. Let us all think together and try to make this world a better place to leave.

Believe me &
enjoy thinking,
