Love is God

True Love elates you, pacifies you, calms you, motivates you and moves you into the right direction. Everything for which we fall back upon God. Love as God doesn't reside in any idols, it resides in everyone; it's omnipresent. It provides you faith and believe. Re-ignites your trust in others; humanity and brotherhood. Love provides you a language and a medium to interact with the most hostile of situations prudently.

There are many places where we see Love playing God. A mother's selfless and motiveless love towards its child is Godly. It's the purest forms of Love which is actually the truest representation of God as well. Similarly, a person's persistent love for a thing he does, results in him getting the God on his side.

"God helps those, who help themselves."

Your love and passion for your work plays God and makes you succeed. Someone like Mr. Narendra Murkumbi of Shree Renuka Sugars, entered the sugar business; which is nothing new, leased mills and made the farmers the shareholders. All of this had been done before, yet he succeeded and made the business worth Rs 1000 crore. Others might say he got lucky. Lucky in some deals. But this was something he loved. He had passion for working at the grassroots. And when you do something with love, things do fall into place. Your Love plays God there.

Love as an emotion is also analogous to God. It's your trust in someone you don't really know outright. Yet it reigns supreme and you respect it. It's something extremely beautiful and soulful. Love as God, is more for the soul and not just for your physical self. It gives you something to fall back upon in times of distress.

"But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things." -Vincent van Gogh

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

Belief in Virtue is more important than Virtue itself

Just pause for a second from your daily life. The life that you are so desperately trying to organise, to make worthy, to make grand. The future plans that you are putting together, the aspiration and the fantasies; put them aside and think about this- "We spend a lot of time trying to organize the world, we build clocks and calendars and we try to predict the weather but what part of our life is truly under our control. What if we choose to exist purely in our reality of our own making, does that render us insane. If that does, isn't that better than a life of despair?" Rationality and irrationality is purely subjective. Also what's better is only a matter of how deeply you apply your thoughts to it. If being happy and content is all that you want in life, then isn't living an insane life in a world of your own, the perfect thing for you. The problem with us is that we don't know what we actually want, and when we do, we hate to accept them and instead

India has the largest pool of talented manpower but very few innovations and patented products.

Ancient India was the hub of learning and innovation. India had scholars like Aryabhatta, Charak, Chanakya, and many others. But, with time, that zeal for innovation has faded away due to the constant lack of encouragement from the whole system. Ancient India gave zero to the world, invented chess, developed ayurveda but today not many discoveries take place in India. This lack of innovation is the result of the systemic failure of our society. From school to college to workplace, we are taught and tamed into following the set rules. We are taught to be followers and any attempt to think freely is viewed as dissent. Our society has closed itself to any criticism or corrective evolution. This was quite evident when we saw the introduction of Genetically Modified seeds in India. Every technology has its pros and cons, and we need to encourage the spirit of research and innovation to increase the pros and limit the cons but an outright opposition to anything new will be a hindrance
