CONSCIOUSNESS

Image
I have something to tell you today on consciousness. Steve jobs had an intuition that had nothing to do with his intelligence. So where did it come from? The thoughts that we get have a very interesting origin. Ofcourse there is a neuroscience aspect to origin of a thought. But according to me a thought is generated in your body by the creator in you. (Good or bad depends on the dataset you provide to your brain) Let me explain There are three components in you 1.The you-The consciousness 2.Your body  3.Your mind The way your body and mind  functions depends on your consciousness. So what is consciousness....It is invisible and it create wonders. Attaining consciousness is the ultimate goal of your life. You are not your.body nor your mind...you are the conciousness. You just observe what your body and mind require and you should have control of the other parts the mind and the body using your consciousness. Great people have a very different level of consciousness. Consciousn...

MINDFULNESS - ITS NOT EASY AS YOU THINK

Image
When I was a kid I used to perceive ideas like mindfulness, spirituality as bull shit. But later the circumstances around me proved me wrong .There is something I found so fascinating these days...MYMIND. Yes.....I found my mind to be very fascinating in my body. After reading the first two line you might assume that I would be giving you a boring lecture on mindfulness....NO. I will tell you something very Interesting. Listen...... You get up in the morning  You wake up from you bed You brush your teeth You brush all your 32 tooth(Hope you have all) You look around Wait...why am I talking all this bullshit? The reason why I wrote all this is we do all the above actions but we hardly notice them. This is the awareness I want to talk about. We do lot of activities that we aren't aware. But wait why should we be aware? Here comes the concept of thought. We are the actions we perform. Agreed? Our actions are the end results of our thought. Why do tend to be lazy ? Its because of the t...

WILL THEY EVER MATCH UP ?

  We often talk about how Artificial Intelligence, Augmented reality to change the world and make things easier. This is of course a true. Technology can make our lives much easier. It helps us leverage robots for our works and makes us lazy and we could enjoy sitting on a couch and watching tv shows. All this said and done what makes me sad about the technology? Is it the fact that technology which is a man-made thing could destroy us in the future?. There is a possibility with the advent of new technologies like open AI. But it takes years to build a system that could kill us. Then what is my concern about? I recently read an article on how a family in Myanmar spent their lockdown by eating snakes that they found in the forest. What does this Indicate? This Indicates the wide economic disparity in the world. While we talk about the new technologies there are some people trying to make a few meals a day. It is a matter of fact that the rich are becoming richer and the poor are bec...

NEVER BE A FAN OF SOMETHING OTHER THAN YOURSELF

  Dhoni's daughter gets rape threats  Vijay sethupati's daughter gets rape threats after the controversy around the film 800 What is common between the above lines? You might think it is the rape threats NO It's the fanatic mindset of Indians. What do I mean by this? In India, we have a vivid fan culture which probably doesn't exist in any other country What is my problem with this? Ain't I a fan of none? Here comes the tricky part. I admire someone but I am not a fan of someone............. What difference does this make? For example, I admire a lot of people from different fields. In this article, I will tell you the basic difference between admiring someone and being a fan. Let me tell you a small example, let us consider the example of Dhoni in this IPL.I love Dhoni for his mindset and his humble nature and the way he finishes a match. The things have gone the other way round this IPL. He is completely out of form. When you are a fan you never accept the reality...

THE FATE OF AN IDEA - THE DELTA FOUR THEORY

Image
Bill gates had an Idea called Microsoft Mark Zuckerberg had an idea called Facebook  Elon musk had an idea called Tesla These are not just companies these are ideas turned into reality. What does it take for an idea to become successful? Do all the ideas succeed? The answer is a big NO. 95% of startups are said to be failed. A thought that strikes my mind always is how do we form a successful idea? Let's talk about an idea in the terms of startups. why do the ideas by many intellectually advanced founders not succeed? Do they lack talent? Do they lack execution? Well that might be the case ....but the major reason why startups fail according to Kunal shah A well known entrepreneurial face and the founder of free charge and CRED is that  "Founders do not provide an efficient solution to the existing problem" Does it mean they are identifying a wrong problem? No. He also says "Everything in the world is a problem because there is always an efficient way to solve it...

WhiteHat Jr.Ads -The Indian Parent Menatlity -Is it really required to code from class 6?

Image
In the past few days, we have seen the ads of white hat jr on television and youtube. We see businessmen fighting among themselves to invest in an app made by a kid(according to the ad). The ad might seem funny to some and ridiculous to the rest of the people...but there is a serious question that comes out of this. Do children really need coding right from class 6? Is coding really necessary for a kid to survive the competition? Well...In this blog, I would express my views on the topic. Moreover, the recent National Educational Policy also mentions that coding would be a subject in the curriculum from class 6 Here is my take "Indian parents are very ambitious.....in this sense I can go a step further and use the word they are "Status driven".They give more importance to the status of their families and their children. Here comes the major problem with the dangerous trend of compulsory coding. When parents get influenced by seeing the ads and force their child to join t...

THE INDIAN FARMERS PROTEST

Image
 Last few days we have seen a wide range of protests across the country opposing the new agricultural bills that were passed by the central government. In this article let us dive deep into the new laws that were passed in the parliament. Sadly the way they were passed is not a good sight to watch out for. The primary reason I am writing on this topic is the reluctance of the media to have a healthy debate on this issue. In this article, I  would like to explain the laws that were passed and the viewpoints of both sides of the spectrum, The opposition, and the government and Finally end the article with my take on this issue. WHAT WERE THE LAWS PASSED? The three farm bills passed by the parliament are -- Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill ( Also referred to as APMC Bypass Bill) Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill HOW CAN THIS HELP FARMERS? Farmers will...

MY THREE "H" AND ONE "F" RULE FOR LIFE

Image
Life is a one time deal.You don't get to live your life again.Some might bring in the concept of the seven lives here to prove their point of another life.Even if it is considered to be true it cannot be taken for granted.Since it is a one time phenomenon we need to give it the best shot. Many advocate different ways of living.But the best way one could live is to conduct experiments on is life and find the hacks for a better life. Here is my experiment.I would like to put forward "3H AND 1F" rule for spending our lives in a meaningful way. Let me dive directly into the rule. HAPPINESS  Happiness is highly underrated . People are so ambitious for higher earnings and they crave for materials that donot exist with us in our lives.But Happiness is never a goal for people. My first H for life is happiness.Happiness should become a dream for every one.This might sound cliche but in reality if happiness is made our ambition for life all other things would easily flow into our l...

4 CASH FLOW QUADRANTS-4 MINDSETS

Image
  Money is an essential ingredient for a comfortable living.Many of us(In fact all of us) work for money.There are many view points from different people on money.But In this article let me explain you an interesting classification that I have come across recently when I was reading a very famous book by Robert kiyosaki  “ RICH DAD AND POOR DAD”. “Money is an idea that is more clearly seen with your mind.” The cash flow into our bank accounts can be classified into four different types as listed below EMPLOYEE SELF EMPLOYEE BUSINESS OWNER INVESTOR Any person who earns money falls into one of these quadrants.let me demystify these a little bit. 1.EMPLOYEE People in this quadrant generally work under some one or a company.Majority of the working class falls under this category.They are obsessed with income security and regular income.They are devoted to improve the financial status of the company that pays them.Frankly speaking every one comes under this category at some point i...
