The Real Inception!!!!!

The title remain inconclusive...
Lot of things are happening around and they were apt to be titled this way...

To be on a more personal note I am not finding it worth enough to stay in the lifestyle that has taken the center stage of every individual....

I watched a movie named "Aashayein" and in the end it conveyed one simple message. A duel between "was" and "is", between "to be" or "not to be"... The movie used concept of death to really bring out the reality or the real meaning of life...

Fast real fast is what it is now used to describe the "need" ...Every one needs things or the output very fast to save time but then the time that is saved is redirected to another "need"...Wow why so eager to finish of time when you have lot of things to do in this saved time... Not to forget the fact that "Wants" have replaced "Needs". There used to be a thin line between them some time back, but in this age of technological and economical upwardness the line seemed to be somewhat distorted and people are easily converging those two into one. All things seems to be affordable now, but then What is actually affordable is still a question to ponder upon?? I seriously doubt whether "mental peace" fall in that list...

Slowly, ya the word is correct "Slowly" is what I am made to think what's the outcome of all this fast forwardness... and I am slowly loosing the real concept around which this world is shaping out. Am I being left out?? or am I afraid to join this run for time??? Like the movie Matrix , I am waiting to be unplugged. Now you think I am really insane but my insanity is not driven by some other factor other than that I am insane by choice for this world not that world is making me insane. BTW what is Sanity??? Does Sanity means do things what others do or think the way what other people think... Then do we need a brain if we all are programmed to think the same way?? 

Why I want to be seriously unplugged???
Need a reason for that?? Then here are some...

* Isn't life a compromise: compromise for the real dream with the real world reality?? Or is it really a real world reality??

* Happiness quotient is defined on a world scale where simple and calm thinking is replaced by a greater world thinking....

*  Being individual is to be someone out of group rather than one more brain to think the same way...

The reasons can go on on but then who is gonna number them when it always comes to the process of  reducing the number of constraints...

Am I thinking too much or am I dreaming???
Wherein all the projections of this dream life is converging on me???
Am I dreaming for myself or am I in some one else's dream???
Might be thinking this person has gone mad?? But then that thought is yours, not mine....

Zreecu's 1-2-3 liners

  • Things change when they change ;-) But what that matters is whether people change along with them   ;-) .. Its quite hard to get the natural persona back ...So why does then people change when the persona they were once proud of changes with those things ;-) 
  • Quotes are worth reading when they come from someone else's experience ;-)
  • I write, I read, I think, but these actions seems to be mutually exclusive ;-)
  • I think, I write, but then all my thoughts aren't written always ;-)
  • I read , I think, but the things I read aren't the things I end up thinking about ;-)
  • This page seems to be quite common to everyone's experience but then experience is an degree of individualistic thoughts....Similar to  "what I see is not what you want to see?".
  • Once I used to be serious, but then I don't seriously remember when that "once" was ;-)
  • I have met many people but "many" is just a term to describe the number, in the core they all end up being of the same mentality only ;-) 
  • You can copy any or all of these but will that really make you "me"???
  •  I haven't conquered the world, I am not the richest and definitely I am not perfect, but all I know is I am the best I can be by being myself and my dreams are not inspired by others.
  • Everyone's trying to chase dreams. But have they ever stopped and realized what exactly their dreams are.. Most of the people are working hard to earn more, live a high status life, earn a reputation in the society but that is what "Most " of the people do.So where's the difference. Individual dreams are still in their locker rooms and sadly "Most" of them have lost the key to it. 
  •   "LIFE" is a four lettered question with an four lettered answer "LIVE".  
  • RELATION is a one way bridge. Everyone expects the "FLOW" to be towards them.
  • Its sometimes better to keep some people as strangers rather than ending up on the wrong side by considering them as friends.But then whom to choose???
  • I chose to remain silent, at least I made a choice...and for what?? Don't ask me.I can't answer that coz I am Silent ;-)

    As You Came Into My Life

    When we walk the walk of life,It's not that hard to know
    That each life has a share of happiness and sorrows to share 
    And for that in each life you come across some one called a Friend...

    A simple way to show my gratitude to some great pals who came 
    across my life and made it worth living...For all my dear friends...


      As You Came Into My Life...

    As we tread along,Into our life
    A little rain will fall,
    But if we have a friend, we can bear it all...
    For a friend is an umbrella, 
    To be held above our head...
    And help us think about, 
    Those bright sunny days instead...

    As we tread along, into our life
    A little wind will blow,
    But If we have a friend, we can always let it go...
    For a friend is an parachute,
    To guide and glide along with us...
    And help us dream about,
    Those light lit runway of life...

    As we tread along, into our life
    Like leaves things will fall,
    But if we have friend, we know we can call...
    For a friend is like a safety net,
    In which we will be caught...
    And help us to hope for,
    Those best moments which awaits...

    And along the way Into my life,
    You came as my friend...
    For I know I have a friend to share,
    Experiences old or new...
    For a friend is no less than god,
    A person who is loving and caring,
    Who sees my best qualities and imperfections
    And knows, I am their friend too.....

    Happy Friendship Day Dear...
    Thanks for making everyday of my life a Friendship Day....

    Beer Story

    It was quite hot in the evening.Delhi in June is usually hot.So after all my evening chores...I was on my bike... Almost clueless where to go but I thought thinking cud be done on the way...


    Suddenly something popped up in my mind... It wasn't too long that I had some company with me..My rear seat already had a net which is used to hold things... And after a long time it was holding something very chilled.2 Ice cold Beer bottles.It was quite soothing and tempting just to see the chilled vapor covering the containers.Was in a different world when I spotted Red @ the traffic light. And when coming to sense it was enough to stop myself from crossing the Zebra cross.

    That 2 minutes seemed long enough.I was just biting my time when another bike came around me and stopped just in front of me. A guy with a gal. Thats where the funny parts starts. The guy glanced at my rear seat and then smiled at me with a sense of missing feeling that was all over his face. That smile was short lived by a sudden response from his back. U need that or me. Should have seen the face he made. Poor guy.. Just before the red light was about to turn green I just whispered A beer is better than woman coz hang overs are only temporary(No offences gals... Beer doesn't demand u 2 change)..and I bet the same thought crossed his mind too...

    Being Myself

    Asked myself why I let them wander so close?
    When there wasn't any scope or chances...
    For whatever they do or have done to hurt me,
    I wonder why I don't have any complaints...


    Life isn't always about getting what you desire,
    And that I came to know and understand long back..
    Even though it was painstaking and heart piercing,
    But I made it as simple as popping things from a stack...

    For all that we all have been through,
    And for all that we all have talked about...
    I came to know it may not seem to be enough,
    When it came to letting those feelings inside out...

    May be I always was just a second fiddle,
    But for me it wasn't just a choice from a set of  options...
    Just like an unsolved puzzle or a riddle,
    For me these relations are still mysterious ones...

    I don't know whether or where I went wrong,
    May be I wasn't the only one to prefer...
    May be I wasn't there where I belong...
    This is all luck, whether I was made to falter???

    And now the answer for what I asked myself,
    I don have any regrets for what I have been...
    Coz, I was always true to my heart n my own self,
    And I have seen what there was to be seen...

    But whatever it is, I am happy to be,
    The one what others expect me to be,
    The one I always was and always will be...
    Just a milestone they came across in life....

    The Devil Inside Me...

    The highway behind had a story to tell,
    The road ahead will have a tale to unveil...
    And between them its me n my machine,
    Its us, spanning across each n every terrain...

    The highway wasn't that lost before,
    And the road wasn't that unknown before...
    But each time I ride, it scans a different angle,
    And brings forth a new version of life to unravel...

    Earlier it was the destination that prevailed,
    And it was the time that was being consumed...
    Now the time and destination doesn't really matters,
    And its the path that lies ahead chatters...

    The journey ahead doesn't have a stop sign,
    And its unlikely that the path will dry up...
    From one milestone to another, the web spreads,
    To a place called horizon where sky and earth meet up...

    It seems as if my journey is filled up with silent rivers,
    And those twists and bends like life's mysteries...
    Calling up the harmless Road Devil inside me,
    Who is not bound by the laws of mass X acceleration...

    Teaching Life

    Last week was quite fascinating and wonderful.Had a glimpse of school life.Not mine of course.Had to give our software training in a school. Was quite amusing to watch those kids play and have fun. The things we miss the most I suppose.The training was for CBSE teachers. So once again in their life they had to go thru the classroom learning process. More than anything it was the experience that they shared with us mattered. It was so wonderful to hear their accounts of their experiences with the new generation and how they have to be on their toes to get in touch with the latest developments.

    They were happy to be at the driving seat of the class when the session of doubt clearance started. They had thousands of doubts and I wondered as it wud be just the subset of the doubts they would be facing when they start teaching how to use CAD to children.But it was quite knowledgeable as we cud look forward to the area of improvements and modifications to suit the students need.

    When the students turned teachers shared their experiences we couldn't get ourselves out of the nostalgia about how we used to be back in school days. They were worried in certain cases and happy for certain ones related to the new generations studying techniques. They were concerned about the competition for scoring higher marks as they know the maximum a student wud get wud be 100, but is that enough. Is it really what a child need, just a near to three figure mark in every subject. How much do they keep the lessons learned. For example: A teacher teaching 12 th standard said, the students are taught all the laws of physics, abt momentum and it's causes. With higher velocity the momentum increases and it takes more time n more distance to stop a vehicle. Do kids learn this lesson(Why only kids , do the grown ups??). I think the answer is plain no, coz then there wud be no rash driving accidents. So its just not enough to put things in the paper but also students need to mark up in their minds too.

    Like this a lot of real life examples were given. But then why are they the only people concerned about these. Doesn't the parents have greater role to play. All they ever do is to encourage to score more marks n unknowingly the same kids would end up with lesser marks when it comes to the attitude towards real life.

    It was quite an revealing experience for me to get along with the teachers who continues to teach us in one way or the another all along their life. God bless them.

    Nothing's Changed

    Nothing's changed.These were the words that I ushered in my heart when I got down at station.On my way home I cud see the cosmetic changes all around the places but the mentality of the people still remained same. I think I am far too speculative in expecting that things will change in a matter of 6 months. What change did I expected to see or whether really I wanted to see any change at all, I dunno. But I was damned happy that life is still slow back in my hometown. Slow not in the sense of development but slow in the terms of people's attitude towards the fast furious world outside.

    There was an religious function at home and I was quite amused by the way people got involved in that. From kids to old, from family to neighbors and all people in the neighborhood, all were equally enthusiastic about the function. It has nothing to do with the religion other than that it is related to a ceremony in our family temple, what I am trying to portray is the culture and traditions associated with the function.

    Kids n youngsters were the persons who were more into it with elderly person closely watching their deeds. They were all around the place encouraging things in a good manner. Glad that this generation back in our village is not glued to their Cell Phones and TV, its not that they didn't have them , it's that they know how to value things. Its a very close knit network where everyone knew everyone else. And most important was that people knew the difference between blind rituals and cultural tradition.

    No matter how descriptive I try to be, the real thing can only be felt only if we were present there.But then I still have to try at least. This time things seems to give a broader perspective when I analyzed how small things can matter to you in your life. And by small things I meant the moments which we would have easily overseen when compared to materialistic benefits we get from it. If we go for a reason or cause then we can easily subdue their importance but once you forget comparing or reasoning you will amazed with the amount of happiness and satisfaction this moments has in store for you.

    This time I didn't want things that I scribble in here to be anywhere near to be a travelogue coz I have wrote them enough. This time I just wanted it to be a simple reminder of what it actually means to be in the wilderness and simplicity of life.

    Where are We???

    (Part-II)

    I don’t know how much I am able to bring out the actual difference between the ways of thinking. We tend to think in a different way but we are actually traveling through the same pipes of thoughts. We want to become independent. And the main theme of independence here is the economical independence. I agree it’s just a part of independence but not the whole.

    So where are we actually?? I don’t know where we are heading to? We work, we earn and we thrive to perform better every time, but are we actually getting better? Sooner or later a time will come when we all will think about this way of life and what we are getting from it. But I fear it will be a bit too late for changing anything.

    The mindset is something which either we should try to understand theirs or something we should create new for ourselves. There are lots of things that we even though know but pretend that it is not much of a concern. We learn a lot of things all through our life from childhood to the stage we are at present now. Things taught by our parents, by our friends and by our society, a society which thrives on the very aspect of tradition and culture. But soon there will be no culture left at all to follow .Don’t let that culture die away , don’t let materialistic things to take control of our life.

    Coming to the bottom line of what I was trying to convey, I am not against anything but I am not in for everything that this fast life has in store for us. Remember everybody has a moral responsibility for everything that happens to the Mother Nature and mankind. Don’t think science will find answers for all the problems….

    Where are we???

    (Part-I)


    I thought what's bothering me.May be the fact that I am just counting my days in Mumbai. I am just growing restless from the fact that very soon I am moving out to my native place. I dunno how it was here, it was quite ok as far as I believe. Learned a lot of things and not all of them I really wanted to learn.It's a fast life here, have to adapt soon or else you will be made to adapt.

    All things have just their materialistic values, that's all, thtz the end of everything. You use it to it's maximum and then try to find something better than that. So everything is spinning around the simple logic of "Use n Throw".People competing just to get better than what their neighbor's has.Why ?? "Can't they get satisfied?? No way"."Nothing satisfies me" that's the motto I suppose everybody is following here.Nothing is spared not even the relations.You will find lot of people complaining he/she is not of my type. Then why do they went out first of all. It's just the first impression that draw one person to another,then slowly the true person reveals out and that's the end. Everybody knows the fact that no two person are same, then what's the use of complaining of being not of their type. Why everyone wants other gender to be his or her type?Why are they not ready to accept the truth? No way, it's satisfaction that always counts.


    Satisfaction is not what you get when you get what you wanted. Satisfaction is something what you feel, when you believe that your needs are fulfilled. So satisfaction is what you believe.Even if you get everything you will never be satisfied and even if you dont get everything you can still be satisfied within yourself. It all depends on how you differentiate your wants and your needs. Wants and Needs are two different things.But it has become same nowadays.Actually people are misinterpreting them for one and the same. And this is not the story of one single metropolitan city named Mumbai. It's same story for each and every city in India.

    Everybody trying to catch a culture that's far more western. No matter how hard people try to imitate, their imitation will always be at least a century behind.Coz people are just following their lifestyle, regardless of the actual mindset they should be in. No matter what, until and unless they dont take western mindset into consideration,whatever they do will still be termed as "following".

    What is that Mindset of western people? I dont think I can define that but I can very well give you some instances of their ill effect and good effect. There are lot of good and bad effects of that mindset too. Remember nothing is pure or perfect not even god coz we all are creations of his imaginations.And imaginations are not perfect always.Lot of imperfections will remain. The biggest advantage,people are free over there, free to think free to adapt and most important they are open to any idea. They believe in doing something new every time and every time they do it it set standards for people over here to follow.

    We will always be followers,simply coz we cant be thinkers and we dont want to be leaders......
    Simply coz we dont want to think in new dimensions, we want to play safe and we always use ideas that are tried and tested over times. We never want to explore into non conquered routes of map coz we fear of getting lost. But remember,Until and unless you get lost you will never find a new way out. We always seek for ready made answers but never wanna venture into the process of making the answers. We do what everybody else do, so we will always be followers..

    There are disadvantages too and what are they?
    There people put themselves in front of everything,a kind of selfish act, they dont how other's would be affected due to their actions. They might know what the effect would be but they do it anyway as long as it doesn't compromise their situation.So free thinking is not always good and it will remain a curse as long as a mankind and nature is getting affected in a harmful way.

    to be continued................
