The Rush for Money

The current surge in the people applying for B.tech and MBA courses points towards them as a means to rush towards money. But ask yourself honestly is money the sole thing you seek from the experience and have the one's who were only seeking this, lasted. You can't move ahead with a pseudo-motive of doing an MBA for the skills it imparts. Doing any specialised course needs you to be motivated for it. Not having motivation for the course but the ends, will sooner or later lead to your fall.

If you are in it, be in it for achieving what it truly provides, a quality education and not the by products, the money. The money will follow you anyways, if you have the right set of skills. No man was ever denied money if he had the skills in him and was able to showcase them when it was required. We have so many leaders around us who didn't rush after money straight away but preferred to be entrepreneurs. If they too had rushed after money and taken up lavish jobs in some MNC's we could never have had a Naukri.com. This is what we get from a professional course.

It provides us with a way of living, a way of thinking that transforms you as a person. The transformation is painful,yes, is difficult too. But the metamorphosis of an ugly caterpillar only leads to a colourful and beautiful butterfly. So, be in it for transforming yourself into someone who's more innovative, knowledgeable and not just because it might offer money. And if you do, chances are that you'll deviate from the path and never reach the destination. It's important to identify the right path and adhere to it and then see where it leads you, than to run madly after the destination which might deviate you from the path and you end up wandering. Build your identity first and let the money follow.

"Identity is such a crucial affair that one shouldn`t rush into it"

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...

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...

Nothingness

That feeling of silence, of emptiness, of vacuum; the one of absolute nothingness, is rare but blissful. You're like a pure white canvas. An unmatched serenity of soul. Pristine emotions of nothingness and that sudden tranquility of your character. The quest for eternal happiness ends in nothingness. Nothingness is actually the Shangri-La. It's the utopia which everyone looks for. The things which people are after could simply be achieved by a sense of nothingness. The calmness or to its extreme, the numbness is the ultimate pleasure. When you are numb, you're immune to all worldly pains, sorrow and grief. The absence of pain is probably the best pleasure. We seek for ourselves pleasures which are material and degradable. The absence of pain is obviously not what we seek because it's lack luster but what we seek is the bling. The glamour is not what utopia is, it's a place devoid of the negatives and nothingness is what strikes a perfect balance. The only p...
