माँ मैं पढूंगा माँ , मैं पढूंगा माँ  पंकज ऐसा बोलते  बोलते ना जाने कितने गिलास शराब पी चूका। दिल्ली की सर्दी भारतीय प्रौद्योगकी संसथान की जानलेवा क्लास दोनों का असर उसपे जवानी की उफान , अब पंकज किसपे ध्यान दे उसकी सबसे बड़ी दुविधा थी। पिछले (हमारा प्रथम) सेमेस्टर के  अंको के हिसाब से वो क्लास में सबसे पीछे था।  पंकज की ढेर सारी खूबियों में सबसे ऊपर था, चाहे हालात  कितने भी गंभीर क्यों ना हो सबसे पहले मस्ती का इंतजाम होना चाहिए। इंजीनियरिंग के सुरुवाती दिनों का मेरा सबसे पहला दोस्त वही था।  सायद कभी पढाई को तवज्जो न देने वाले दोस्त बनाने की मेरी पुराणी आदत यहां भी मेरा पीछा नहीं छोड़ने वाली थी। इसको पढ़ कर ना जाने मेरे कितने करीबी दोस्तों को झटका जरूर लगेगा पर सायद वो गर्वान्भित  भी महसूस करे।  पर हमे सायद अब तक ये समझ लेना चाहिए की किसी की जिंदिगी की अहमियत वह कितनी किताबे चाट चूका है उसपे निर्भर नहीं करती।  यकीं मानिये मेरे देश के पचास प्रतिसत से ज्यादा लोग आज भी स्कूल नहीं जाते और उनकी जिंदगी में उत्साह और उमंग की कोई कमी नहीं है।...

How often we come across a personality soft and appealing that we had long desired to hang around with. What is that quality which one asks for in his/her life partner? What is that quality that every employer always looks out in the candidate during job interviews? The character traits hold above all. When pressed with queries about these traits people would always stumble upon something common but likely to be not correct: honesty, humor, confidence, charisma, etc.. These may be the correct answer but not enough to sell oneself as a product. If you were to run a principal component analysis gathering these traits and finally listing the traits on priority then you would be surprised that your top three listings would cover your most of the traits. These three traits, when found together, will create an ultimate attractive personality who is in command, in control of destiny, one who is both altruistic and intelligent.  1. Humility  Humility is an outward ...

The Evolution of Sorrow and the Rarity of Bliss Let us disregard the period before human existence, as it holds no relevance to this pursuit. Over thousands of years, planet Earth has become well-acquainted with sorrow. These sorrows multiplied as the gap between humans and animals widened. As desires grew, so did disappointments, and what was once a common state of bliss among the masses became increasingly scarce. What is Bliss? Bliss is a state of complete happiness or profound joy. Have you ever practiced the mindset where no matter what your companions choose to do, the only emotions you allow yourself to experience are happiness or neutrality? In essence, you are telling them, "You cannot push my buttons." This form of emotional discipline fosters an unshakable inner peace. Some associate bliss with ignorance, a perspective that many accept in modern civilization. While ignorance may shield one from certain sufferings, true bliss is not about avoiding reality but maste...

Corruption is often seen as a byproduct of monetarism — an unfortunate side effect of money-driven economies. But in reality, corruption is not a side effect. It’s the foundation of the current system . The elite have always had the power to influence governments, no matter how democratically elected. Human vulnerability to temptation makes this influence inevitable. Democracy, while noble in theory, often leaves us choosing between technically inept candidates to solve complex problems. But technical problems require technical minds . That’s where engineers and technologists come in. 🧠 Why Technologists, Not Politicians, Hold the Real Solutions Unlike career politicians, engineers are trained to analyze, optimize, and solve. They understand constraints — limited resources, high demands — and know how to work within them efficiently. India’s very nature demands such technical solutions. With its vast population and scarce resources, only enterprise driven by engineerin...

Normal People : accept their limitation, which prevent them from getting what they could have Smart People : Give in to the temptation; accept slavery for small favors, like wine, women and luxury Challenger People : Question the existence, are visionary and often lead an exodus some way or the other. By the above classification I mean to outline the prominent category which is trans humanistic and choice would be the 3rd one. By now you must be wondering what is Trans humanism and why am I talking about this when the world is undergoing lot of other transformation. We recently started a tech blog and call that Trans humanistic approach to life. Soon our blog gained popularity and people started asking about Trans humanism. To be very frank even I had no perfect answer so did a bit of homework and here is my understanding of Trans humanism. There is no reason why the qualities of Einstein, Shakespeare, Mozart, Darwin, and Gandhi cannot be combined and the result yet would ...

As the election draws near, politicians get more candid and their indulgence in personal fights becoming graver. There are offerings, someone promising rice @ 2 Rs/kg, someone equality by removing computers and English and preserving poverty, someone will fight against terrorist how still remains a question, someone taking cover of pretty faces, promising to decrease the ugliness quotient of Indian Parliament. The festivity of largest democracy, nearing elections in its full color. For the people It’s the time to recall and undo the deeds, relished upon them by some of incompetent governments they had in the past. I would avoid taking any names as I progress but intended people can be recognized and vividly imagined. At the centre of the story is INC India’s oldest political party. This party may have rightly served India but from my observation they are the ones responsible for destruction/demolition of Bihar. Couple of decades ago they gave a leader to the state which was self...

One day, I found myself arbitrarily contemplating the enigma of the female mind—a thought that has intrigued me time and again. The answer, however, remains elusive, buried in an abyss beyond reach. Cracking the IIT or IIM entrance exams seems far easier in comparison. Just when I think I've discerned a pattern, the very next interaction defies it. Understanding when a woman is being truthful or merely reshaping reality to gain an advantage in the next moment is an art that no science has yet mastered. And the most formidable weapon? Tears. Even the gods falter in their presence. Rationality collapses, and one is left adoring whatever she desires. Many battles—both historical and personal—have been waged over this very predicament. But if the female mind is so intricate and sharp, why are there so few renowned female philosophers? This question led me to investigate, and to my pleasant surprise, I found a long list of female philosophers. Yet, they remain relatively unheard of in e...

--> Heatwaves have struck North India; the temperatures have risen without any respite in the near future. Coupled with contamination of the atmosphere with construction debris and vehicle emissions, Indian cities have been rendered as a pathetic place to live. We will need to start preparing for the series of catastrophes that will befall us on our way to adapt to life at warmer temperatures. We are bringing online at least 1000 new coal fire burning plants, one per week in China alone. India is catapulting itself to catch up, with its frugal savings and foreign investments. These foreign investments want Indians to consume assuming that resources are infinite and there are no entropy disturbances in the process. We will add 2 billion additional automobiles onto the world’s highways and fossil fuel engines will still power 70% of them. We have now changed our atmosphere that has been stable for the last 650,000 years by digging up ancient sunlight stored in plants t...

I know a lot is being said about the changing dynamics of the state. My surprise findings in the last one month stay in Bihar is the change in people’s behavior. Earlier people use to be arrogant, impatient, short tempered and totally uncivil in nature. The relentless corruption, poor administration, rising population and diminishing job prospects, social division, large dependence on fraud and cheating to sustain livelihood, depleted education system resembling the pre-independence era, shaggy infrastructure, non-existent judicial system and dead industries were causing frustration among the people. The ominous result of these accrued frustrations was quite visible in their behavior. Let’s not forget that the above mentioned factors were result of poor-governance (a governing body which itself had common Bihar touch, so what was needed was a government which can insulate its ministers and aides from these social norms which obviously would require sacrificing the comfort of power a...
