This was an article which I had written in 2008, which somehow won a prize in Graphology learning center :)
Unconditional acceptance, means love having no boundaries, a desire of being submitted, an emotion of being accepted unmasked.
A man is always hungry, ever since is child birth…hunger for food, hunger for knowledge, hunger for money, hunger for LOVE.
When a child is born who is pure, unaware, ignorant and with an absolutely empty mind….we accept him the way he is.
As a person grows and goes through the process of life, knowingly & unknowing imbibes certain thoughts which corrupt his mind and takes a wrong path.
And then comes an emotion of being accepted not from the entire world...but from the world amongst us…the world which is been created for each other, our family and friends. We feel like being a child again, so that one can understand, pamper, love and ACCEPT us. But in today's world, everyone wants to grow by pulling someone down. Most of them are more on the receiving mode, rather than giving.
When we are accepted, treated with love and tenderness in acute circumstances, we make an effort to stand by our convictions. We not only recognize ourself but he receives willpower to rectify the same. Here begins a journey in finding true self. And then the mutual receiving and giving takes place.
We all need to understand the power of unconditional acceptance to heal, love and spread happiness around and making this world worth to live. Experience life by living it & not spending it.

Everything is Temporary!!
My best friend used to say “Nothing is forever” and my heart used to sink and feel how is that possible. There has to be something that is forever like love, hate, emotions, souls…
Ahhh!! Too philosophical…let me just get into the face and say the bitter truth “Everything is temporary”
And there goes one electric bulb enlightened on my head showing my bright aura :P. my heart suddenly feels better, though the meaning of both the phrases are same. It’s absolutely illogical for something within us (call it heart, brain, emotions, hormones...whatever) to react differently upon the phrases which mean the same. But that what we say…Different perception make you feel differently.
Everything is temporary…I repeat in my mind. Today’s fears becomes tomorrow’s bravery, today’s confidence may become tomorrow’s fear. Today’s friends become foes tomorrow. Today’s stranger becomes best of your friends. Today’s love is lost tomorrow. Today’s challenge becomes your right hand job. The innocent baby today becomes an adult tomorrow. Today’s life is becomes death tomorrow. Everything moves because everything is temporary. The shape, color, vigor, character is never the same.
Then where is the reference point? What should we refer to if one needs to do a comparison or analysis upon where you have reached? The actual truth is there is no reference point; it’s just a flow…flow of events, flow of different people coming and going, flow of changing attitudes. One can never understand where they have reached, cause every situation needs a different way to be handled...you may have to modify, stretch, be stern or sometimes just be neutral … you just keep learning new ways to deal with it.
However successful, rich and famous you become you still have challenges till your last breath. You are always challenged at every level….if you are a king or a beggar, if you are a super star or a loser, if you are a leader or a follower. It doesn’t matter where you reach but its most important how you reached. Did you surpass with your own effort or took an easy way out…
It doesn’t matter if what kind of life I am leading…the more important is how I am leading it. Yesterday’s challenge is just history; you still have to live up to the next challenge to survive.
Have you ever thought how it would be if I got a chance to live a superstar’s life…I feel it would be no different cause you still are flooded with different set of challenges. Everyone is playing the lead role is their own life and the life is also temporary so either you choose to live others way or your way you still are bound to face bumps and potholes. At least I choose to live it my way and it feels great to see myself in the lead role for the movie called “My Life” :)

Activated India
The synonyms for India are Bharat and Hindustan. Diversity in the name itself, imagine the diversity you would notice in culture, colors, vigor, taste across the country.
Geographically India is the seventh-largest country, 2nd most populous country & most populous democracy in the world. Four of the world's major religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism—originated here, while Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam arrived from other parts of the world. The land here has a great tolerance to accept each and every culture coming across the world.
A reality check – Most people here complain upon the government not playing safe with the finances, corruption at peak, infrastructure not well planned, poverty, overly populated, unemployment etc. In spite of negative publicity that government had received, India is classified as new industrialized country and is one of the four BRIC nations.
India is a mini world in itself; it has deserts, valleys, mountains, beaches, glaciers everything divided in 28 states and seven union territories. God has actually worked upon this country with minute details. So do the countrymen of this nation. In a way they are god fearing & religious but on a contrary they would forget humanity to respect the religious vows.
Festivals - Once upon a time it was a medium to build relations, interact and thanking God for giving this life but the meaning now has changed to “Show Off” how much you can spend. Unity before has converted into competition now. Your rating is decided by the amount of noise you make and amount of resources that you can waste.
People - You might buy your own shoes twice, you may encounter theft by the most helpful person, you may get directions for the same address in absolute different directions. But you will also find a stranger going out of way to get your stolen thing, you may be get shelter by a completely unknown family, you may find a person accompanying you till you reach the destination. They are WEIRD !!
Roads here have potholes, people will spit everywhere, speed breakers may break your spine, and the dustbins would be forever overflowing…huhhhhh! But it’s the same place where you have the liberty to voice your opinions, you would find bonded families, you would find real friends and most importantly you will find your individuality as it gives each and everyone a fair opportunity to prove yourself.
However it may be - irritable, noisy, polluted, populated, corrupted, uncivilized yet the entire world finds the peace and solace here; after all our spiritual roots & Vedic morals are ingrained in our genes.
However drastic situation be, people here say “Sab thik ho jayega” (Everything will be fine). The world will only start sinking when “A Bhartiyay” will start losing hope and faith, till then “Sab thik hai” (All is Well)
I feel proud to be a minuscule part of this country. Proud to be an Indian… A Bhartiyay…A Hindustani :)

Challenged!!
As and when I had been watching the physically challenged people, I kept wondering how difficult their lives would be to do daily activities, to survive, to grow. But when I see them adapt & cope with their challenges, I see them being as normal as us. I started cementing the wavering belief of “When the Universe provides Challenges, it gives enough strength to overcome them”.
They are having equal opportunities as we all have; rather they create opportunities if there aren’t any. I see them absolutely at PAR. If you check out all the so called normal people around, they are situational challenged in some or the other way. We make situations as an abrupt excuse to not follow what we are seeing beyond reality, life taken for granted. There is always A tomorrow. Some may consider it as a positive attitude or laid back attitude, completely depends upon one’s situational perception.
But check out the so called not so normal people around, they live only for today as if there is no tomorrow. They are not waiting for a better change to take place, they make the change happen. They do whatever possible to their utmost potential…sometimes taking an extra mile. They have a unique power and that’s what cuts them apart from the rest of the intellectual world.
All that I can understand is each one of them is gifted with challenges and I actually mean it when I say “gifted”, be it physically or situationally. No one has an escape to it, the more you escape the more you attract them. So better face it, penetrate through it and get ready for the next one.
The question is who is more challenged? In a way Every one and if you do a comparison No one.
So next time you see a physically challenged person, do not sympathize…Empathize. They are no different from you :)

I Fear!!
What’s the origin?
Humans are very careful living things. We care about ourselves, friends, family, acquaintances, strangers… actually the entire world. JOne who cares about the entire world’s opinion and never listen to inner self shall develop fear the failure. The different between the 3% of the entire world’s population which consists of so called successful people is that they always believed in giving more priority to their own opinion.
Fear is something that we as parents teach children…Don’t go there, you shall hurt yourself. Don’t climb, you will fall. We tell our children to take care…in short “Have fear”
Now come on…don’t think that I am asking to be ruthless and brutal, but trying to give a different angle to from where this fear comes into existence. If it comes from what we care, then where does care come from….ATTACHMENT!!
And attachment is just an extension of emotions, but again that’s what makes us HUMAN ..right? I mean how can one not be emotional and unattached?
Let me give another angle…emotions are extremely pure and it allows one to be free and allows to have a complete experience of whatever comes on the way...but when these emotions are mixed with doubt it gets converted into FEAR and thus making limitations around us. This will only bound us and making one feel claustrophobic with too many questions like “why me, why not, how”
Somehow…I feel being unattached means a complete submission towards the circumstances and doing what is required, as YOU are chosen for that role rather than getting entangled in the web of hopes and desires of receiving something in future. Being unattached means having complete trust and faith that everything has a reason to come and it contributes to the higher Intention.
Life sounds so simple when you actually realize yourself, but life seems way too complicated when we choose not to heed the voice which speaks to us continuously in silence.

Women!
Wise….Outstanding…Motivation…Ethic…Natural …
Who and what is this human looking creature known as women?The qualities a true women cant be described in any form..but can be felt in many ways…
Women is that string which binds relationships together, who cares for you even knowing the darkest part of you, who loves uncondionally and goes a step ahead to make you feel special in some or the other form.
The way she gives her all to make you comfortable…to make you feel special…to care about each and every small thing…to understand your needs. Its about you, yet keeping her individuality, integrity unalterted. The depth of her thoughts can be only be felt…when it is understood.
A modern woman is the one…who takes the onus of herself & her loved ones…and moves on solving all mystery of life by herself…
The world calls this species as a COMPLEX ONE!! But she dares to solve the ambiguity…
She is independent yet takes care of her dependents….she is free yet she is aware of her limits…she is modern yet preserves her traditional values…she is an achiever yet down to earth...She gives birth to a life and takes the responsibility to makes it worth living ...
She helps…She loves..She cares..She lives..She is THERE!!!

JIGSAW PUZZLE!!
During a light conversation with one of my good friends, we realized that all our friends around is so different and we always keep on judging them to the way they behave, dress, interact etc etc… but the moment we are together carrying our different flavors we all get along so well. We enjoy, rejoice, dance, eat, share, feel, cry, fight, console, help...in short LIVE! How much so ever we all are different and imperfect in our own individual lives, when brought together we feel flawless.
That’s how the entire world is designed and that’s why no one is perfect. The imperfections allow us to find our counterpart to create perfection. Universe is like a JIGSAW PUZZLE ..different personalities put together. If U see them individually it’s not perfect but when together its picture perfect.
Everyone has a role to play and that’s how they are designed…which makes their character. No one can answer why they are this way and for that matter they are not even answerable. The moment we accept them as they are, we don’t trouble ourselves asking “Why”.
Will you question a Scorpio “Why did U sting me?”...No..right. That’s how his character is. All that we can do is either take precaution or proper medication to be healed and move on.
Identify your counterpart according to what you are to avoid complicated expectations. Like in a jigsaw if different parts are put together which are not meant for each other it will never make a perfect picture.
The question comes “How to identify”…I don’t think there is any secret formula to it. Just keep trying, you may be bruised then take proper medication and move on … then try more. That’s how we create experiences and memories which is a TRUE & PRICELESS TREASURE…The one thing that we all will take along with us after our last breath.

Whats the confusion?
Today…after a pretty long time I felt proud of myself. Reason was I completed 1st set of Diwali Diyas which will be gifted to one of my good friend. I really gave myself a pat on the back which is giving me a confirmation that I shall have my days back.
I had been trying different things in past two years and I kept on feeling that “Is there something wrong with me?” Actually…today I understand that there was one thing missing which made a difference of life.
Once you have heart and art together in place in whatever role you are playing, you see a clear picture and every work you do goes as an achievement…but actually you are just doing your job.
But if you have the art but not the heart into it, the path seems to be more hazy and impossible. The more you learn and try the goal goes further and further. Its easy to develop the art, we all can do that…remember studying history (the most hated subject for most students). We all could get over it easily cause we knew that it’s not for the entire life.
Unfortunately...life doesn’t give us short term exams with time table. Everything is unsaid, no one has time to prepare for the forth coming circumstances..right?
There are certain things that we can choose … to understand what kind of WORK is suitable for me. Every work requires brains and energy, the only challenge is to understand which one is meant for you.
If your heart is into it, you may create a fortune or may be not but I feel the satisfaction and peace is uncomparable and moreover learning the art is fun. It’s no long a job or work it becomes a part of you. Once you are in sync you start enjoying the rhythm of life
I know it becomes difficult with all the responsibilities around, but this is the ONLY LIFE that you can live as YOU. Helloo!!!! no one else can take that opportunity from you.
If you are confused, go ahead and explore every opportunity that comes your way. ..give an honest shot…give that chance to yourself…if its not meant for you, you shall come to know about it. If possible, try not to make an opinion if you haven’t tried it yet and never consider everyone’s opinion as the final one …Remember…. you are UNIQUE and there is no one in this entire milky way like You!!
Let’s see what there for me in the store…may be slow baby steps will take me to my destination

A Dog who died in PEACE!
Today when I was leaving for office, my friend Nivedita gave me a call “There is a middle aged dog that is on the verge of dying, can we do something about it?” Though I didn’t have any Animal Welfare number, but tried to get as many numbers from just dial and gave her. The moment I reached off I tried to enquire if everything is fine, but unfortunately the animal welfare association would have taken a long time to come to the outskirts of the city. I tried calling couple of them but the moment they heard Hinjewadi they would hang up (wonder how they are in social service).
It was unbearable to see the dog dying on the cemented footpath in the hot sun. We decided to at least try our best to save him. I believe he had feats & was already pretty weak, cause whenever I used to go to the tapirs to have evening tea, he would loiter around quietly. I suppose, he was too lonely and weak right from the beginning. I gave him some water, cleaned his face, covered him with a dupatta and moved him to shade. His heavy breathing had calmed down and I was wondering if this was a positive or negative sign. We enquired about which medicine to give and drove to a nearby medical to get one. By the time we reached he was already resting in peace. My heart started beating much faster and I tried to wake him up but seeing no reaction we just left him there in a shady place.
While I and Nivedita were discussing about the entire experience, we realized that at least he didn’t had a DOG’S DEATH. We really can’t control anyone’s life and death but the only thing that we could do to make them feel blessed while one is his last stage. It’s actually the survival of the fittest, but don’t you think that the most FIT and suited living creatures can be compassionate & offer help to the weak. It’s their fate and will if they can make it.
I feel that I actually helped myself apart from dog, because it was intolerable for me to see him die just like that. Now that he is free from all the pain, hope he will have a much better life next time where he is been well taken care of. I pray that he rests in peace.
A day after:
The pup lying there still…and he was covered with flowers …and more flowers were falling on him…..as if nature was showering its condolence towards it. :)

Earnings!!!
So..How much did you earn?
We all are judged upon this factor…how much MONEY do you earn? A father will never give his daughter if the guy is not earning well, a girl will not entertain a guy who can’t take the expenses of a date, a man will not respect a woman if she is not working…everything leading to one …Earnings…and somehow its directly connected to our egos…Right?
To reach here where you are, you must have cried, laughed, been depressed, suppressed, cheated, slogged, abide by your principles…but still we say it’s not enough, there is no limit to it. We lose our earnings in so many ways…like bad investments, serous crisis, someone cheated, some mishap…we lose it all and yet we fight back to grow, excel and survive…that’s the spirit of a human. He knows how to adapt, learn, improve and move on in most drastic situations.
But don’t you think in the business of life, we never lose…
When you did something great…you earned an accomplishment, when you were criticized…you earned a silent suggestion, when you made an effort to look good…you earned a compliment, when you tasted failures...you earned lessons…when you were compassionate towards someone…you earned a friend, when you cheated someone…you earned a foe and their negative vibrations, when you disciplined yourself and made your dream come true…you earned success. Each time you earn you learn and compete with yourself, creating new bench mark and leaving and no one can ever compete this journey that you have chosen.
So let me ask the question again…how much did you earn?
Actually speaking there is no one in this world who is worthless, and no one who is priceless
The difference between a literate and illiterate is not who can read or not…but actually who cannot differentiate the value of what he shall earn in this journey.
If everything has to end, then it even has to start?? I asked this question to myself so many times…am yet to find a correct answer...but surely it feels that I am at the right track.
What about U?

A friend WITHIN!
Friendship day, Valentine’s day, Mother’s day, Father’s day, Sister’s day..etc etc. We have all sorts of days to celebrate relationship with others, but there is no day to celebrate the relationship we share with ourselves.
We humans generally seek satisfaction in making others feel special, but we also get thrashed by the way others treat us…Right? We are always seeking a support, a friend in someone with the know fact that there are conflicts waiting to come. All sorts of emotions, actions, reactions, possessions, obsessions goes to that someone so called “Special” who actually can’t even understand you. But we still continue to carry on this way...at least I did…
The more I started thinking about myself; the world around me started teasing me being selfish. If one tries to make a deal with others that I become selfless and you do everything that would make me happy…don’t you think a lot will back out?
There is no intention of promoting rebel attitude, but actually to stand unaltered … just being yourself without expecting others to like you. It’s like offering a hand to self and a word of being there in all thick and thins.
Don’t we all hear voices in our heads? The one who want to do everything at one moment is a confused self who doesn’t know what to prioritize. There would be another voice which will help in condensing the anxiety, analyze and bring out the solution. Then we loiter around discussing with the outer world to be clear but instead create more mystification. The voice again reminds you because it knows what the best is for you at that time. Do you trust those voices?? I never did.
After really a long time…I have started listening to myself, being nice and compassionate to myself, allowing myself to voice my most stupid thoughts. In simple words…I am being a FRIEND to the indecisive, confused, agitated, angry ME.
We humans generally seek satisfaction in making others feel special, but we also get thrashed by the way others treat us…Right? We are always seeking a support, a friend in someone with the know fact that there are conflicts waiting to come. All sorts of emotions, actions, reactions, possessions, obsessions goes to that someone so called “Special” who actually can’t even understand you. But we still continue to carry on this way...at least I did…
