Think again?!

Hello readers
The week is coming to an end, as usual faster than we expected.

Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.
- Steve Jobs 

So today want to Talk about this simple topic, We all are fortunate to have the ability to think, and that is actually, what makes us different from the rest of the species in this world. I have read articles from many famous environmentalists such as Jane Goodall, and Ramachandra Guha that the  orangutans are one of the only animals other than Humans,which has  the ability to think and express simple feelings.

 So it is believed that man is a descendant of this ape. The reason why I am writing this blog is that,  I  am amazed how some people think, I really want to acknowledge them wish I could do that.This is the need of the hour  and needs to addressed, immediately as this  has become a global concern.

Actually lets think from the start, how man started to think?,he was a barbarian when the first species of the 'sapiens' emerged,when they used to kill animals and eat it like any other wild animal, then tube first leap,of making tools came into picture, next in the list was, fire,finally trying new ways of eating food after processing the raw food,which is popularly called as cuisine and recipes now.
Just think we have used this ability of thinking, for building civilization and inventing various wonders we must risk those great thinkers who are responsible for our civilized and complex yet simple life.

But still we have failed to take tie best out of these people's views and teachings and have ended up in this bad spell of thinking bad and doing deeds which are meaningless.
We always think negative, or do not think at all and end up in useless conclusions which are not at in sync with that incident.all .

When there is a need to think, again we hesitate to think even once which is very unfortunate.

The greatest disaster is due to this unclear thinking from the important people in the world ,the common man is facing the problems and feeling the storm also ,if we look at the household folks they also feel the heat,due to this co called term called the 'Generation Gap',actually this term is just a made up word,if both a dad and son can think and sort hings up ,it will all good may be the dad or son may give a more appropriate solution to the problem.

The issue is that we don't attempt to think at all!and endup unknown caves of doubts,misjudgement and mis-understanding.

Let's try to understand ,a person's thought deeply before drawing conclusions ,also when we think we need to think clear and accurate.


thanks for your time have a nice weekend.

Not that people do not think nor do not distinguish good from bad.

But we are compelled by our nature, or what Indian thought calls it "Gunas" - Satva, Rajas and Tama - which all of us share in different proportions. Bhagavad Gita discusses these in detail and gives adequate solutions also (Chap. 14).

But who needs? we are too busy for these ! Ever running and never reaching. The end comes sooner than we think.

I quote the famous reply by Duryodana of Mahabarat to Krishna's Advice:

"Krishna, I know Dharma, but I cannot follow it; I know Adharma but I cannot leave it."

We are modern day Duryodhanas.

Krishna also says: " The Gunas are of my creation; they are in me but I am not in them; it is very difficult to cross my Divine Maya, except through surrender to me" 7.12-14

Thanks for raising these thoughts in me.

who converted us to duryodhanas? i do not fancy him, i may have acted as arjuna, succumbing to the charms of the moment and yet owning up what comes after. without blaming anyone. one feels sankalpa makes all the difference. i did it and i could get it undone too, if i make a firm resolve. and there are so many exemplars for us.
