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

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...
