It all began with the Truth

Human Beings. Two of the most important words for Human Beings. Why? We are run only by machines. We are no longer functional by the slow movement of the earth or by the simple doings of Nature. Who are we? Why are we here? What is the purpose of a Human in this world. Why are there so many of us and so few other animals? What is happiness? Why do we desire happiness? What happens after we go to the moon. What happens after we conquer Mars? Will you find the answer in this life? Is this life? What is life, consciousness, thought? What is right? What is wrong? What is good for you? What is for the greater good? Who was the first man? Why was man given life in this world? What are the questions that can be answered in our lifetime? In our Generation's lifetime? In 10 generations lifetime? If we backtrack and go to the time when today's answers were unknown, we will know when the answers that proceed shall be known? When the first man built the first hut, he b...

Selfies

Since the evolution of man into an intelligent and thoughtful being, he has cherished himself. He has prized at the skills that he was able to develop, and how he was an evolved animal and better at several aspects than others. However, the early cave man never really knew what he looked like. There was no mirror; maybe the sea to see their reflection for those who were near it, and a polished stone for those higher up. He must have longed to see how he looked, as he started to know much, but didn't know himself. Now, that deep evolutionary desire to see and know oneself has become the most accessible thing for the modern world. We have now started overdoing it, as it's so easy, and constantly spam social networks with our own pictures. We put it as the wallpaper of our phone, our computers and now "shelfies" for Gmail allows you a selfie email background. When a cave man told his girlfriend that "you are the most beautiful creature in this galaxy", the ...

Predictions

Predictions for the next century. Millennium. From simple to most complicated: P 1: 16.03.2015: The screen of Apple Watch's will be extremely fragile, even after being made of sapphire crystal glass. Its one of the larger pieces of hardware made with sapphire crystal glass and the delicate nature in which it has been attached to the body along with exposed edges make it extremely vulnerable to damage upon falling or accidental knocks. Be careful and don't say you weren't warned. P 2: 14.07.2015: Aliens exist. We will encounter them before the end of this millennium. Earth cannot be the only planet which can sustain life. Life as we know it, is only a microcosm. We think it is important for Oxygen or water blah blah blah to be present to sustain life. I think that life can be sustained in anaerobic conditions, without Oxygen, water, air in another planet. The rules of Planet Earth may not apply to rules of Planet Zorbio. The fuel that drives them may be something ...

Efficient Governance

In order for the government to be effective over a long term, they need to promote efficient and long term rules, laws, regulations, methods of construction, products and processes. If a system of working is more efficient, government should provide incentive to adopt that system. If something is very inefficient, government should try to restrict the same. For instance, if local industry making electrical products are not able to compete with Chinese prices as China is more efficient, the government should allow Chinese products and not increase duty to assist the local industry. Industry shall itself find their solution or switch businesses. Laws and regulations should not be made to favor any particular corporation. The lobbyists should be informed to display efficiency over alternatives and then ask for a change. Planned, long term thinking instead of short term cost cutting methods should also be adopted, which shall ensure long term sustenance of the land as well as estab...

Elementary my dear

What if the elementary matters in other galaxies were different from the ones on earth? Have we ever pondered that it is possible for Atoms and Nucleus, the way we know it now, to be completely redefined in another planet or a galaxy. Protons, electrons and neutrons  may not be present and may be replaced by matter that function in a completely different way.

People who drive the world

Types of people who drive the world:   Content creator Object/Material creators Service providers Middlemen Scamsters Thieves Policy makers Investors Information Providers These are the doers of the world. They execute the actions required for the world to move forward. Existence of all types of persons is important, including the philosophers, prophets, scientists as they guide the way. However, the better the doers execute, the more the world moves forward in their direction. 

Would you eat the chicken?

Would you be eating a chicken, if it eloquently could express its emotions? Would you be eating a chicken if it was able to defend itself? Funny thing is, that would apply to plants too! That's how the food chain works, and everyone has to accept it. Tastes may be relative.

Independence Day Speech

We gained our Independence about 67 years back. Our history after independence is much shorter than the British reign over India, which already seems long gone, forgotten. Over these few years, we have had 13 changes to our Prime Ministers, couple of wars with Pakistan and China, resolution of Kashmir still seems murky, more than 65% of the population still living under $2 a day which by any reasonable standards is way below poverty line, our GDP growth today is the lowest ever, INR - USD exchange rates are the highest ever, and infrastructure development is dotted with sub-standard quality construction and corruption which is eroding the feathers off the gold swan that India once was. The British on the other hand, built our rail networks, started the use of the telegraph system, taught us how to harvest and process tea, taught us the English language - a means through which we are able to connect to the entire world and able to travel and settle in foreign countries effortlessly, a...

Elucidated Thoughts (Some by me, and quotes by famous people)

That should be the premise of resource and financial allocation. - Me.  "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail" by  Ralph Waldo Emerson Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? or  Who will police the police? - Original Latin phrase, which I first read in Deception Point by Dan Brown Does the man make the  suit , or does the suit make the man? - First read from Iron Man 3 previews One can always continue to learn from others Do not look down upon tho...
