4 Idiots

What 3 idiots symbolises is 3 individuals who don't understand the real reason why they are doing what they are doing in there lives. They finally awaken to making their avocation as their vocation. Hence, the 4 idiots of real life are Mark Zuckerberg, Shaimak Davar, M.F.Hussain and Anish kapoor.

Zuckerberg is someone who made his college project into a world renowned phenomenon. A phenomenon which has 500 million ardent followers. A medium which in now connecting the millions of people to each other and the brands to their followers. Facebook has become a cult of its own. It represents what sheer innovation and technical know-how could lead to. A company which has been valued by dealbook to be worth more than the media giants like Warner Bros., and internet majors like yahoo!. The company looks promising enough for the future as well, because Goldman Sachs finds it worthy enough to invest 50 billion dollars. All this because the idiot had the guts to believe that he could make his avocation into a sustainable and profitable enterprise.

Shaimak Davar would have sounded silly when he went to learn contemporary dancing as a profession. As one of India's first contemporary jazz dancers he faced lot challenges, often being questioned about his masculinity. But he answered all his critics by winning the National Award for Choreography in 1999 and since then has become one of India's leading Choreographer.

M.F.Hussain and Anish Kapoor both represent art in its different form. One being a renowned painter and the other a sculpture. Both are masters of their arts but it takes a lot to make mordern art and sculpturing your daily job. These guys did just that and that is what makes them the best in their fields. But it isn't a job to them its something which they love doing.

Idiots as they all were, they are at the top of their fields and have now become inspirations for hundreds of other people to follow.
"Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life."

The God Delusion

People all over the world create delusions around themselves, a persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidences. In India alone we have 33 crore Gods to choose from, for the 100 crore population; a sort of personalised delusion for everyone. In addition to that there are crores of God men. The social structure is so formed that it makes us oblivious to the delusion. We continously doubt our own abilities, and associate results to the blessings of some higher beings. The degraded self-esteem is what pushes you deeper into the delusion. To quote Douglas Adams - "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?" The belief that the world was created by some God and that everything in this world is His creation is fundamentally flawed. If he created everything than who created Him. Putting the creation of everything under the ambit of one entity was to simplify the exp...

The Goa Travelogue : Trip of a Lifetime

Our group of friends shifted hostels in the second year and took rooms close to each other and the friendship grew stronger from there with each passing day. Thus was born x0x-ers (3, 4 – 0 – 1, 3) i.e. rooms 301,303,401 and 403. We spent countless hours planning trips, parties, discovering music and other random shit. Goa is a destination every college group plans to visit during their college days. This was one trip we just had to make. After hundreds of hours spent on planning the trip, many last minute changes and one person pulling out we finally managed to make the trip with a bunch of our European friends joining us there for what would be the most memorable trip of my life. I as a writer am incapable of putting in words the sheer fun we had on this trip so most of you would not realise how beautiful some of the moments were. Day 1 I arrived before everyone else travelling from Mumbai. Riding 30 km on a scooter solo from Madgaon to Calungute was a sign o...

He who knows how to be Poor knows Everything

In today's materialistic world, being poor is the worst thing that can happen to you. Being educated, being moralistic and being principled amount to almost nothing if you are poor. There are no opportunities to come out of that quagmire. Someone who has been through this and has somehow overcome the mountain of difficulties, would possess incredible amounts of determination, will and belief in his ability. Such talent is rare but often results in producing the greats. Being poor teaches you time management, how to make the most of your time to survive. It teaches you adaptability, how to adjust to the extremes of living conditions. It pushes you to extend your boundries and grow farther. It makes you emotionally and mentally strong. Someone who has been facing defeat after defeat but still gets up everytime to face adds so many facets to his personality. You learn only from your mistakes. If you have never faced defeat, it would be hard to survive. To relate to my own l...
