End of Line

Hello readers 

Hope you all are doing well.

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.
-Bob Marley

We all have a breaking point in almost all things we do every day, the simple reason is that we all are material beings and we tend to bend and bow and again straighten up.
When we try to discuss about the human nature it too has an end of line, well what is it? Let us find out.

How many of us can say that we are totally selfless and are ready to prove it? Well in this generation I think the answer is almost zero, except for some great souls, whom I won’t name as you know that they live around you and always think for your well-being before they sleep.

So everything will come to halt at one point or we can say a stage that is when you are asked about selfishness. Here the everything that I am refereeing is our normal behaviour.

Of course it is difficult to be totally selfless, only great people could reach that stage which is actually  a honourable one.

What is that engulf the selflessness person in you?  The exact opposite yes you are right selfishness! Let’s define a process here with a simple example.

John wants to eat an apple, at the same time jack his brother happens to meet him and asks him if he could share that apple with him, John does not hesitate and gladly offers him a piece at the same time Jill friend of John  happen to pass by and asks for a share.

John is now little bit reluctant to share it with his friend and replies “I am sorry. This apple is spoilt I was about to trash it” Jill leaves in disappointment. What happened here was a classic case of selfishness.

When you take  this example psychologically, we understand that the subject lied about the apple when the person 2(Jill) asked him for the share, now why did this happen?

We humans are the immediate descendants of the apes. Ok... let me say the mutant relatives of the apes. Our ancestors followed the nomadic culture of gathering food and moving from one place to another.


So when there is a question of food, we always keep our share so that we don’t endanger our own lives!

Scientists have gathered many such  examples on the behaviour pattern of humans in these  weird ways,  the most common place we can observe is when you’re a standing in a queue, I am sure you will remember the quarrel when you saw someone barging in by breaking the queue.

So when it comes to your own life the selfishness in you or the simple 3 letter word comes to picture that is “Ego” the strange part is  we are alive today psychologically only because of ego, because finally you live for yourself because it gives you pleasure in doing things the way you want to do it.

Let me make a suggestion here, agreed we must be egoistic to certain extent  as that is basic law how nature has designed us, but keep your ego in the back seat your car of life strap it up safely and drive your car with the co-passengers of selflessness, gratitude, and compassion towards all creatures on this earth.

Let us all fix a goal today to live in a world with more compassion towards  each other, let go the ego at places where it is not required and go freely enjoy the beautiful earth.

Stop taking things personally when they are told to you and reacting like an ape without even thinking why it was told. Your biological age will earn you respect if and only if it has correlation with your psychological maturity.

Thanks a lot for your time, have a great week ahead.

Disagreement = development?

Hello readers

Hope you are doing great.

Talk to yourself once in a day, or else you may miss meeting an excellent person in this world.
-Swami Vivekananda.

Heavy rains in Bangalore from the past 3 days reminds me of the 90’s school reopening time when me and my friends jumped in the rain and laughed at children who used umbrellas, time flew away and now we are just upset about the traffic jams caused due to rains, if I compare both my reactions it is actually very funny and weird .The rain made me realise only one truth we are ruled by no one , but nature  that's God's own truth. Whatever we innovate and try to prove we are the most superior species on earth we still fall under the rules of nature.

We live this life by abiding by the rules of nature at the same time we also have designed some axioms to survive in our own communities and society.

OK! If we just look back in time, since how many years are we following these tiny packets containing methods to solve problems or fulfilling your needs? May be from 3-4 centuries we see there is definitely a paradigm shift from how it was and how it is now.

I am sure sometimes we get weird questions, who could contemplate of a solution like a cycle which would work without any fuel other than your own calories? The inventor of bicycle is my all-time role model.

There are many inventors like these who have woken up the world, I see one common objective in all these people that  is, they did not accept how they were living their lives, and wanted to stay alone from the crowd, that is actually the bravest thing one can do.

If you ask why is it such a difficult task to do? My simple explanation would be this: try not doing your favorite thing for few days; like reading your much-loved book or checking your phone or talking to the person or people whom you love the most  that will give you the taste of dissatisfaction and unrest.

To just keep doing what we do is fine and easy but going out of the way is more difficult than we imagine, it is such a delicate feeling that, there are evidences of people parting their ways in life, relationships breaking just because the latter did not agree to the former’s idea, we have perceived many joint ventures in the world breaking up and becoming individual companies.

Standing up to a person and going in contradiction of him in life is a very difficult task, each day we agree with certain happenings around us and we don’t agree with some,  this is decided by your neural networks in the medieval cortex of your brain, the fastest decision center in the world, so can we say that if your medieval cortex is fully developed or a dominant part of our brain it is easy to stand alone in that crowd and say no to the entire crowd present there, no it is a very tough job, because along with your neural network your own will fights against you and tries to make you weak and tired when you want to stand.

Michael Jackson,  whom I consider the greatest creator of pop music of my generation used to sit on a tree in his Multi-billion dollar Never-land ranch , when he was asked in an interview mockingly: is this not odd?  to sit there like a monkey and write your number 1 labels? He smiled and responded after all I am an evolved monkey, and I respect my earlier species from whom we developed to be more intelligent today, that is how you stand by your decision he appeared on the time magazine for that answer by the way.

If monkeys, the early species of homo-sapiens had given up on their survival we would be history like the dinosaurs.There was one among them whom would have stood their and made some innovation that motivated others to create ways to continue living.

We all are alive today only because of the power and determination and survival given by your older species, who determined to just ‘live’ first, that was there basic task to accomplish. Now after that ‘living’ is considered an easy task for most of us we have built this society and live by the man-made laws, but I feel we are always free from the laws until and unless we don’t do anything idiotic and stupid.

The whole world

Let’s take one species: man, and consider the whole world has no differences you know like political, fiscal and socio-economic,  demographic and so on, we all get a spark in our brains and smile in our heart wow Man! we can we can meet so many people, so many new things to learn , fresh inventions and a better world, and you standing up  against someone won’t matter because you both are sharing a common goal that is betterment and we can say you guys are having an discussion rather than an argument.

So next time, when you argue with your boss be happy because you are out of the ordinary and you use your brain rather than punching your time card and do the same thing the next day and feel sorry you took up that job.

Let’s admire all the great thinkers who are OK! to stand alone against a thousand folks who agree, I am basically fan of such people and want to thank them today.


So that is right thing to do respect the feelings of very few people in this world who matter to you and do what your heart says, and yes if you disagree with a person both of you would learn something good at the end of that discussion.

Have a great day guys, thank you for your time.

Stress buster.

Hi readers

Hope all of you are doing well.

Successful people have two things on their lips, 1.Smile and 2.Silence.

-Mark Zukerberg.

What is stress, well that is a simple question to ask. But the answers differ; stress can be described differently in diverse contexts: For a flower brisk wind is a stress but we enjoy it; for you a splash of water is refreshing but for a cat it is the most stressful thing that can happen.

There are countless examples that can be quoted but holistically the meaning of stress remains the same that is feeling dis-comfort, or biologically it is an emergency mode which your nervous system puts you into if it feels threatened, by releasing a range of stress hormones like, adrenaline and cortisol.

We all know what stress actually is and we have experienced it, there is no need to learn it from books because we all know stress since our birth.

When we talk about human stress in particular there are many factors that put us in stressful situations, like death, agony, poverty, work pressure and so on.

The next word that will strike our minds after stress is stress management popularly called as stress busting.

It is nothing but losing your stress, but there are many methods to lose stress, like practising yoga, meditation these are very common and famous.

But, have you heard giving stress and busting it, I know it seems a little rude but this is happening around you as you are reading this! So how can you give you stress and reduce your stress? Let us find out.

The stress busters.

I have mentioned earlier, that there are different type of stress reducing methods, but some people use others as stress busters, to start with a simple example you would recall some time back in your school days, that teacher who was always nice to you shouted on you on a beautiful morning for no reason, all through that day you were just recollecting as to why this happened. The next morning the teacher apologized to you by saying, “sorry my child I was not in my best of moods yesterday” this added to your confusion.

The above example is a classic case of how the stress of one person is just bounced on another just to release it.

Many people do this each day, I feel this is not a good habit; we should start managing our own lives instead of pushing our problems on others which is totally illogical.

For the people who take stress from others hats–off to them as they manage their own stress and also help reducing others stress.


Please stop transferring your load on others just because you can’t take it.

Thanks for your time, have a nice day.
