Our Helpers

Hello Readers

Hope you all are fine.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, atleast don’t hurt them.
-Dalai Lama

It is summer season in India, and the mercury levels are raising to all time high even though it may be due to some mishaps of humans in cutting down trees and destroying natural ecological systems, there is also global warming which is going on from years and we are in the Anthropocene stage of civilization which simply means the present state of earth from the last 11,700 years of civilization.

Actually wanted to discuss on a more urbanized topic and related to keeping our surroundings clean.

Well I am sure everyone likes to maintain personal hygiene and also like our place of residence to be clean.

So now the next question would how to keep our surroundings clean this would include roads sewers parks lakes.

Well we are fortunate we are living in a society where we pay tax and the rest is taken care by the government to certain extent atleast but you think paying tax is the end of your responsibility?

I would say absolutely not we all are responsible for each other that is the government to the people and vice versa.

Moving on, we create lot of waste on a daily basis, which can be organic, chemical and material waste and there are dedicated people who risk out there at the cost of their lives for clearing the waste which has been created by us!

If you are thinking risking their life is like an exaggerated word to use, I think it is not because consider a person who sweats in all sorts of waste which may contain infection and viruses which cause diseases, and there are many well known cases where people are suffering from life-threating diseases.

I think we owe them a lot I agree we are paying garbage taxes but whatever we pay it truly take lot of determination to do such hard labor. We cannot bare the stench of garbage if a garbage trucks passes by imagine a man works like a full time job in the same truck cleaning all your dirt almost 24/7.


Majority of us if we are called to garbage cleaning drives in our corporates back out because the dignity of labour in you kicks in.

Then what about the people who are doing this on a daily basis!

I see women pushing garbage carts with their children who instead of enjoying their childhood help their moms. Even though i agree there large machiniesed machines used to clean big highways and main roads, it has to implmented in residential roads and complexes on a larger scale.

The next on the list are the sewage cleaners I consider them as my heroes and I also feel they are the real heroes just like soldiers they arrive at sewers which are blocked and remove the blockage on time!

It is sad to know there are many awards given to sports people, celebrities and so on where is the recognition to these real heroes in the sewers who are ready to help if you just make a phone call. Lastly the electrical line man and service engineers who risk their lives on high voltage electric cables, even if you say “it is their profession” I would reply “my friend it requires self-motivation and high level of service mindedness.”

The sad part is people do not understand this part in the society and abuse all these folks at times which are seriously immature and obtuse.

I also feel our garbage cleaners lack the latest tools and amenities, we cannot still provide them broom and also a fork gatherer and a plastic or a jute bag to collect all the garbage and not expect the sewage cleaners to go inside a sewer half naked and come back bathed with filth! I think this is an inhuman situation in this era modern science and technology.

In other countries we can see caddies been given to city hawkers to clean the swiftly and with comfort I think we need to bring in the same system here.

Better training is required so that garbage collectors can handle the waste in a more technical way we need to provide educational facilities to theory children and give a decent pay. I appreciate our honerable prime minister kick started the swatch bharath drive, which is step one I feel towards cleaner india and constrodium for a citizen to particpate in cleaning activities, its up to us from now who we want to take this from here.

Sweeping machine used in spain ; this should be replaced by the push carts and brooms in India.

Let us also spend some time in thinking about these sensitive issues and help our government and these grass level workmen with whatever we can.

Thanks for your time Good day!

Medic

Hello readers

Hope you all are fine.

Don’t pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure the difficult one.
-Bruce Lee

To live a normal life we depend on many people of various professions, because they help us fulfill our daily needs and help us to continue living a happy life.

Among these daily needs there is one delicate and important need and that is health care, when you think about health care almost it is natural that the first name which comes to your mind is a doctor.

Let us discuss a little bit about this: When we visit a doctor we will explain  infirmity to him.

Now it’s the doctor’s turn to diagnose your problem and suggest a treatment.

What method does a doctor us to break your problem in bits and then solve most of the doctors use a method called as ‘negative feedback method’ so if you analyze the name of the method, it says you giving a feedback in a negative way.

But is it good because seldom people say talking negatively about oneself is bad, but that is a poetic way of looking at it, in medical sense it means that telling the ailment discomfort then the solution you get from the doctor is the feedback. So you expressed your negativity which the doctor will convert into something positive called a treatment which is the solution.

The  strongest feeling that a human can get and motivate him is hope, hope will bring you that strength that which muscular power cannot give you and that my friend is called the mental strength which most of the people try to steal from you by demotivating you.

So the first rule in the doctor’s rule book is filling your mind with hope and confidence. The second rule in the book is healing.

Never give up on yourself
Healing is considered as one of nature’s virtues and most sophisticated and wonderful methods till now and a great mystery to many scientists.

The good part is that healing can also be initiated in certain cases for example ,you are disappointed on something your mom or father or your friend will motivate you and try to cheer you up that is the healing right there and you will have a sense of mental relief. The chemical healing or the network of blood solidification that happens on a wound, is a chemical and automatically initiated process, but mental healing can be initiated like what I have mentioned above.

The third and the most important rule in the book of a doctor is the never give up attitude.

When a doctor meets a patient, he would start from the simplest treatment and also tries to identify the root cause of the issue, finally he will solve the problem, suppose it is a complicated case he will try to refer books ask and discuss with senior most colleagues and do almost the best to make that person get-over his illness and lead a normal life.

He will never give up and will never take a step back for the sake of his patient.

This is what is required in life never give up on your dreams never give up on doing good to people, continue helping the deserved, please make the person standing next to you feel relieved of his pressures, as Bruce lee said, make atleast one definite move towards your goal, I think that says it all.

Try to be that doctor to as many people as you can who will remember you till their last breath not for your medicines  but for those few good words and confidence you gave them when they needed it, we must always be service minded to certain extent well that's my opnion.

Thanks for your time have a nice day.

The counsellor

Hello readers 
We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us.

-H. Jackson Brown, Jr. 

Hope you all are doing well. We all live effectively for 40 odd years, surprised? see what Muhammad Ali had to say on life!

 "You live first 10 years of life just to make sense of it, next 15 in your own hitch ups and then move to marital life or any other life so these 40 years are the one which actually count".

He continues to say what you give back to this society in these 40 years is what matters.

Have you visited a counsellor  anytime?  not only for depression or issues relating to your mind, even for educational purposes we visit them, to estimate in which aspect we have the aptitude.

Well that is one way of looking at that profession there is another way this profession is taken into, that is ethical or social counseling.

What is ethical counselling? It  mainly deals with the fine tuning of some moral principles and values which the person is not aware of or has failed to follow due to various factors like personal issues or societal issues.

Social counselling specifically looks at more personal problems of individual, like issues in his family or whatever difficulties he faces on a daily basis when he wants to communicate with people.

Those are the basic definitions of ethical and social counselling.

But there is actually a counsellor within you,  have ever observed for yourself?

It is the same voice which speaks to you when you are angry and tries to calm you down, when you are happy makes you laugh and also try to share it with friends and benefactors.

So who is this sitting inside you and trying to always keep you stable, it is your own intellect, your mind or soul whatever you want to call it.

Among the families across the world, Indian families are considered one of the most successful families no doubt it is true our marraige is a very well planned instituation, but at the same time it has its own problems.

Indians suffer from the problem of ego, and that is almost one of the most damaging factors in a family.

A scientist in Russia once said, family is just like community living where everyone will be provided with similar luxuries and eat at a  common place and mostly the family is best when it is a joint family because it would have various senior people to advise the inexperienced emerging fathers, is how he puts it in his book family: An industry.

But as time has passed the joint family concept in India stands at all time low, so the nuclear families have taken over, but due to egoistic elements in these families we see many traumatic incidents within the family which any member has to bare the brunt. The reason it happens is may be due to the person  is not  considerate to others in the family may have had a rough childhood or he is totally ignorant and arrogant.

Is there a solution of this growing problem which seriously mentally drains other people in the family? and having a direct impact on the future generations.

Of course yes, first the person should think for a while is it correct to do  what he is doing? To him and others this is the self-counselling he should do or others would motivate him to do.

The most important role would be of that particular person in  that family, who has the zeal and the charisma to impress the person in question and help him understand his problems.

This internal Counsellor is present in almost all families and I am telling they are the people who can take the maximum stress and push the family towards heights of success.

I salute to all these special people for being matured at the right moment and help the people around them to ease them in a grim situation caused by someone's silly and stupid behavior for silly things.

So as Mohammad Ali the great boxer said concentrate on those 40 years, what will you do in life other than frowning, grumbling, blaming and making people around you feel sad for your behavior.

Thanks for your valuable time. Adios!

Live happy  always.

Inner Nature

Hello readers

Hope you all are happy and well.

Money is method of trade; don’t give too much attention to it, for it will possess you.
-Bill Gates, founder Microsoft

There should be a periodic change in whatever we do, but there shouldn’t be changes in certain things. For instance the purity of water we drink the clean air we breathe, the tall trees which grow trying to kiss the sky.

There are certain aspects which applies to humans as well, that is a person's character should not fluctuate, his mind should not be unstable and most of all he should avoid being a split.

In these modern times, I feel there are few people who care about character.

A chameleon has a purpose and a strong reason why it changes its colors, but we humans change our moods, tones and attitude towards our own for random reasons.

The Equation of Interconnection.

The earlier discussion actually leads to this, because how you behave with everyone at a given point of time will definitely registers you in their brains in a good way or you will still be there but in the recycle bin of their brains which does not have any purpose. As Sir Isaac Newton says" every action will have an equal opposite action" your light behavior somewhere which was not required, points you out like a you have been shot by a sniper, that is the interconnection which may payoff or miss-fire.

The crux is that I do not  want you to live for few or live to  maintain a good  rapport with the whole world, definitely that is not required, and personally it is not possible for me because I live on certain principles which upholds my character and I cannot go below that point.


But sometimes I feel it is a mad world, where people for the sake of few quick bucks forget their level in life and just behave in a typical way embarrassing, that my friend is your character which you’re in control of and should conquer the power to control your desires.

Here the word decorum comes into picture We need to maintain and if you do not know to behave in the way which is required in that given place you alone will suffer at times for this disability.

I have written many blogs regarding psychology and character till now, but in this one I would like to open up on some of the essentials which are required to be followed by a person who is supposed to a stable mind.

He should always try to help the maximum number of people and animals in distress throughout his life.

He should definitely detach himself from materialism especially the calculative attitude towards money, according to Dr. Joseph Murphy, if you liberate yourself from what you love it follows you and you will make the most of it.

Even though this looks very simple, following it as a policy is always challenging.

The youth of today's generation are seriously not going on the right direction of the track if you consider a population of 100 people in a metropolitan or a cosmopolitan city, I feel may be some 15 to 20 guys may have goal in life and want to pursue and are willing to works towards it, the rest are getting absorbed by the whirlpools of tobacco, drug and pretty nasty things.

Before of I end would like to suggest compare yourself to a diamond and that should how your character should be which almost indestructible.

Hope I could express what I wanted to convey in the blog, let me know your comments on this, thanks for your time.

What We Lack?

Hello readers

Hope you all are fine.

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans
-John Lennon

We all are peddling our own cycles of life each day.

The chain snaps someday, and we will fix it and continue our journey most of the times.

But there are troubled times, where you are not able to come out of of the situation, and you will start thinking, or get dis-heartened.

But in this journey I feel if we can do some enhancements we would still near our destination or goal which we would like to reach out which we have planned.

So what are these enhancements which I am talking about.

To start  with I would say, we need to involve ourselves in whatever we are pursuing or wish to pursue, working with half interests does not us anywhere.

Second aspect is the task we are doing should be linked both physically and mentally, I say this because just thinking about work, does not finish the job. Or working without thinking and concentrating on the work you wish to do does not serve any better.

There is another important aspect which we miss out and that is courage.
How many of us really know what courage is?

Daring is a force which can make an impact on a tie future generation even if the person who showed the valor perished in war or rubble.


It is a vibrant feeling felt by us when we hear the name of true heroes. That is actually courage, the rebellion attitude which comes out when you see injustice going on in front of you is bravery.

Does this generation lack courage? Partially I would say though everyone hasn't lost it.

Half the times we would like problems on our heads this may be due to fear or just a callous attitude which won't let you face that problem, because it is a very comfortable to mind our own business and be happy.

In this modern era the soldiers, the police force, the doctors and the nurses are the one who have courage in what they do, and also apply the other two aspects as well in their lives.

Even if you think the mythological events as a story, I am fine that because what that intend to tell is fully clear, and that is to develop great values, which is great and mature way in shaping a healthy society.

So what we lack is this commitment and the positivity in us to make what is required to complete what we started.

In whatever we have to do we need to keep in mind we need to show commitment, concentration and of course the will and courage to complete it.

In this motivational I would end by saying the vintage phrase: do what you like, like what you do! and be courageous and focused when do what you like!

Thanks for your time.

Good day.

Strenuous

Hello readers

Hope you all are doing well

A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past.
-Fidel Castro

We are born with abilities and weaknesses and most of the time we would not know both our ability and weakness by the time we know and have the mind to analyze I think it would have become late.

Let us talk about difficulties, we all know this word almost before we learnt to speak, the most simple example would be your helpless situation when you were born, just imagine if not for your parents who took care of you till you could take care of yourself you would be history or worse than that lost somewhere without knowing who you are.

We actually do not know what real difficulties, the ‘we’  I am mentioning here is average man who lives in a city without any problems.

But why do we crib and act jittery on a daily basis for simple issues? This includes me I am not a great exception because I was asked by people who read my blogs “so sir you have written a blog about happiness and you yourself are sad”!

Of course just writing blogs about various issues doesn’t make me a messiah, but it is an effort in spreading what is required at this moment.

We react in a stressful way for simple things and even to perform our daily chores including our jobs which we have taken up to build our careers and also take home some money.

Why do we enter that phase? Before I explain you that I want to tell you what real difficulty is.

Difficulty is what mother polar bear faces to raise her kids in a harsh environment as low has -75 degree Fahrenheit.

Difficulty is what an old man faces when his own sons do not want look at him and treat him like just a responsibility.

It is that unbearable pain a mother be it an animal or a human is ready to take when delivering a child.

There are less fortunate people in this world who are still waiting to eat three meals a day and drink water when they feel thirsty.



So that is difficulty, be blessed and happy that today you are so happy with all comforts to encircling you.

I have myself set a reminder, every time if I tell something is difficult without thinking, I and think of the above examples.

We should learn to stop blaming people, situations and meager reasons for not doing some task or not achieving what we wanted,  to be frank you and only you are reason for your success or failure!

We all will have candid difficulties which can be worked upon but some people can’t, our mission would be to help such people God almighty will be pleased  and you would develop a character and  attitude which is  valuable more than anything in this world.

Thanks for your valuable time have a great week ahead.

Hot springs

Hello readers

Hope you all are doing well.

He who angers you, conquers you.
-Elizabeth Kelly

That one thing we can correlate to ourselves was, is and will be nature. You can compare your smile to a bright and sunny day, dull days to an overcast, overwhelming happiness to plethora, great mettle to a rough ocean and so on.

Even though my previous blog was about anger, i decided to write this because this is a different type of anger which we all have experienced,

Why do we react the way we counter is one question is still in the top 10 research topics in the world.

When I say “why do we react the way we react” it is not the usual behavioral patterns which I am talking about. I am talking about some unexpected behavior people which you never in your wildest dreams imagined that you would get such a response.

The easiest instance would be you are so happy about your day; suddenly someone makes a comment which would make you feel such a grouch.

So why do we get worked up sometimes and just go out of control and seriously not know what we are doing.

Anger or the process of getting angry is actually a process which drains your calories have we realized that?  I can prove my point, just observe sometimes when you get angry and scream on someone you would get tired, because the brain though in the modern world works on basic fundamentals which are working on your mood.

For example if you’re scared it switches to defense mood and you feel powered in your legs so that you can run! When you are hungry you will feel more powerful in your arms as to kill some animal and eat which we were initially designed for.


So when you are furious, it switched to the hunt mood and the above mentioned process takes place each time you get livid.

I have observed many people who just angry without any provocation, that I feel is them feeling jealous on you, for the happiness you are which they are not able to enjoy and there sadistic attitude just pops out, there are actually numerous reasons.

There are many experiences where I have seen people randomly getting furious on me for no fault of mine. I just ignore such people, and again they cannot tolerate which their own weakness.

There are places where they teach you how to control your anger and stay calm , my take on that is, it is not required because controlling anger is a mind game and you are the best person who can control your brain no one else knows better than that.

I feel anger and sadness both are hot springs; it can burn you if you try to enjoy the soothing hot water.

Don’t lose your friends family  for that matter because of rage, the fact is it is seriously not worth that rage instead channel it into positive energy to do something productive.

Thanks for your time.

The Beautiful Struggle: Pain in the Pursuit of Dreams

 Hello Readers I hope you are fine today. It's good to be blogging after a while. I wrote about the pains and struggles, as well as what...
