mera safarnama

कभी बेफिक्री का दौर था , अब तो रातों  भी तन्हाई है , उन्हें हीं ज़माने का डर है , या  हम में ही कोई बुराई है। पर गलती हमारी नहीं सिर्फ , वोही आये थे इन गलियों में हँसते, इश्क इतना भी नहीं आसान , काश वोही पहले हमें कह  देते। 

मृगतृष्णा ही जीवन है , मृगतृष्णा ही गति है . यूँ तो ज़िंदगी की सारी बातें ही , झूटी है . तुम क्यो करते हो वक़्त बर्बाद  , चीज़ो को , सच और झूट साबित करने मे . मृग की प्यास तो वैसे भी कभी , नही बुझेगी . लेकिन जीवन का आधार ही , गति है . चाहे हो वो पानी के लिए , हो या , पानी के आभास के लिए हो . तुम भी तो कई धोखो मे , रहते हो . तो क्यो अपने सपनो को , मृगतृष्णा का नाम देते हो . तुम भी उन रेत पे चमकती बूँदो के लिए , भागो . अपने लिए ना सही तो , मृग के लिए ही सही .

"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals." - Johann Von Goethe So, 2013 is going to end soon and yet another new year celebration. and day after day and lo a whole year is passed. Seems familiar huh. Being obsessive about self-help and motivational books ( and a big fan of Robin Sharma), it is like a ritual for me to make resolutions every year. But again who don't :) The problem is that with time these resolution get far from our sight day by day and by the end of February, we cant even remember what we had sought from ourselves. So, here are my suggestions to me and everyone who doesn't want this annual happening to be a reality again in 2014: 1. Make realistic resolution  The problem with having a hard goal is that it requires more determination, stronger will and greater focus. Why take the hard path? So, if you challenge yourself to read 60 novels within a year. Certainly you will fail

"The best things in life are unexpected, because there were no expectations." - Eli Khamarov So, it goes like this. I went to the local mall this noon for the pizza. And this mall have escalators( every mall have). But, the escalator is not my concern what caught my attention was a couple. The lady seemed to have never used the escalator and was bit apprehensive about it. And her husband was giving all the logic and the strategies to do so. He himself demonstrated those by going down and coming back. I don't know if the lady overcame her fear( OK, I went for pizza and was really hungry ), but the incident gave a lot of fodder for my brain. Everyone of us being a part of society is expected to follow a certain set of rules. And how we learn these rules. My answer, every moment we spend. Ever since childhood we are told to follow the path that everyone is following get good marks, don't make friends of other religion, get admission in a reputed college,

Everyone of us have some issue with our very own past. Some of these issues may have a more far reaching effects on our future than others. Some of them may have totally changed the course of your life. So now and then, when I am roaming in my fantasy land meeting and greeting new ideas here and there. There is one idea that intrigues me, what if I could change my past?? Now, those of you who have seen the movie 'The Butterfly Effect' may not find this idea a good one. But let us keep the movie aside and let me ask you again, what if you can remake your past? Now the problem I see with this idea is our understanding of life. Obviously, all of you would erase the not-so-good parts of your life. But the fact is it is all these bad parts, that has made us more strong and made us realize the importance of good part. And with each and every story I read about any achiever , my belief that not having 'initial advantage' is not that bad, gets stronger every time. Also

Nothing interests me everyone more than a mystery or a conspiracy theory and when you hear a new one it deserves a mention. The first major revolt against British in India was the revolt of 1857. The revolt started as a mutiny in the cantonment of Meerut. This mutiny soon converted into a revolt when local peasants also joined it and the target widened to include rich zamindars and jotedars who were seen as allies of British.  The rebellion occured as the result of accumulation of a number of factors over time but the final spark was given by a rumor that cartridges used in the enfield rifles were pre-greased with cow and pig fat.  This rumor further strengthened the people's belief in another rumor that British government is hatching a conspiracy to destroy the caste and religion of Hindus and Muslims. And then another theory begin to float that Britishers are mixing bone dust of cows and pigs in the flour. And then there was a prophecy that British Raj will c

So this is the list of 5 best movies I have ever seen. The list is in alphabetical order and I hope most of you must have seen almost each movie in the list. 1. Fight Club(1999)  Directed by David Fincher and starring Edward Norton and Brad Pitt this movie serves as a metaphor for the conflict between young generation and the value system of advertising. The character of Tyler Durden is the soul of the movie who is anti -materialist and always ready to give you surprises. With a very unusual story and an unexpected twist in climax, this is a must watch movie. 2. Gladaiator(2000) Directed by Ridley Scott and starring Russell Crowe this is an epic historical drama film. This movie depicts the life of Roman general Maximus Decimus Meridius. This movie is epic in every aspect story, cast ,set everything. The fall and the subsequent rise of Maximus and the struggle he has to face is itself very inspiring. Winners of 5 academy awards and one of the best historic movie I have
