Strange thing happened today with her, deja vu. Nothing strange in it, you may say. Still it seems strange that to everyone, every single time it happens. Same was with her today, sitting in the lab, out of instinct, chatting in vain, it all converged to the very point of start, in the impressions in mind. And only she realized what had happened. As if a coming back to the very place of start after a long battle of nothingness, of here and there, leading nowhere... So in the childhood she was driven to great hopes by the thought "people are not positive enough", that's the only trouble with India. When she will be grown up, she would have changed it forever with the brilliant magazines and newspapers vibrating with positivity and spreading the hope and joy all over, she will start. She was pretty sure this was the meaning and purpose of her existence, to spread the missing positive thought. Every morning she used to go through page after page of newspapers and magazines in the hope she will stumble upon something to stimulate great wow element of human life. But Alas the problem lay in the thought of Indians, for they never covered good stories of ray of hope, of joy, of abundance and brilliance. They just painted a gloomy, scary, dull image of one incidence happened five days back in the farthest corner of India. She would change that by the time she is grown up, by the time she is thirty.....
She would start the magazine that will portray the best all around. It would be all too good as it sounds. Its just the thought and presentation that needed to be changed and the society will see how very beautiful their life was and will emulate..
She was twenty six, she was lost, where did she started from, she had forgotten. Why did she exist, she couldn't answer. Did anybody cared, why does it even matter, she thought. She read no newspapers, all stories sounded the same. Though she was not distressed by what they project. She was lost , somewhere, going everywhere and no where. Society she did not think of now, for its too big, who can change that. and she had to find her place before its too late. Sadly she was in no hurry, for she was not sure where she was and why and what made her start.
It was today that she suddenly recognised what had been her start point. Deja vu in a strange manner. But nothing is strange. Its never a straight way, its a loop, a sequence which goes on and merges somewhere. The path is never the same, never different, not entirely round, but a mixture. It doesn't leads to goal, or realization or discoveries. It leads to nowhere, yet eveywhere, with few deja Vu's from time to time as if the path got merged to the trajectory of past. Deja Vu very normal, not at all strange. So it had been for her, today. What she recognized as her point of start. Deja Vu again..

Nature, Alcoholics and Education
Today we went for cleaning lakeside, under the initiative of Nature's Club IITB. Initially we cleared the weeds from butterfly garden which were grown all over and so taller that they were hiding the main plants beneath them. I wondered of nature and its unique ways of balance. Then we moved to boathouse to clean the bottles and plastics thrown all over. For those who are unaware, boathouse is the most beautiful place in campus with most enthralling view of lakeside, hiranandani, Renaissance and hostels nearby and the main road at a distance across the lake, litted by lights of vehicles m oving in a line, one after another. It is all so very magical and uplifting. Its there that I have spent some of the most amazing moments chatting with friends..
But this time my eyes opened to a different reality. All over plastic bottles lay in worst condition, plastic wrappers of eatables not just that glass bottles of alcohol, broken in thousands of small pieces were also there, all over, in places were they can easily hurt anyone. One look at the surroundings and I was filled with disgust for those who caused that havoc with the place..Just beside this huge accumulated garbage was a big dustbin, but guess what apparently breaking glasses and throwing plastic wrappers was more fun to these people.
Anyways so we started cleaning the place, a small patch took almost ten to fifteen minutes to clean. With gloves as well, twice I felt glass pieces biting into my fingers. That was a very angry moment for me. How much these kids, who are so called most brilliant lot of India, deserving the best institute and facilities, bright and intelligent, who entail such high esteem in society, can be so ridiculously insensitive to basic civic sense.
Wrappers of chwinggums lay in count of thousands all over. You launch General Championships on energy conservation, you proclaim huge slogans on how concerned you are for the future of the country and this is what you end up doing at your leisure time??
You have numerous competitions, debates and endless talks for improving Indian society yet here you are,
ruining your very own campus, don't you care? You yourself are ruining it don't you see what you do? Next time you come to boathouse to relax just take note of what contribution you have in ruining the area.
I used to wonder why most of the tourist spots in India are so pathetic to visit since they are always overflowing with garbage. Blaming it on the Government and civic bodies that they don't do their job right. But Alas!!! if the most brilliant lot of India is like this- nothing can help it!!! I have no words for anyone else...
If you enjoy drinking at beautiful places, go ahead, but why you need to break and shatter bottles, what kind of destructive, sadistic tendencies you need to satisfy to feel happy, and alive by dirting up the very place.
Even if you, for some unknown reason, find it irresistible, why don't you try wrapping up what you do once. Pick the pieces of bottles you have thrown across. Still if you feel like breaking it next time or every time, go ahead . But who gave you the right to spoilt this beautiful place. Why the rest all should bear with this infinite stupid rampage on your part..?
Comeon - No Gandhi is coming to save you this time. You are liable for your actions, clean your own mess
Nobody will create the world you want to live in. Its you who have to build it, work for it. You want a clean beautiful India, stop these kind of acts ..
You say India is pathetic, you want to move abroad and settle? I say you are pathetic when you are here , so it is what you get. When you will be abroad you will mend your ways for sure, wherever you may go. Try doing the same on your land and it will treat you way better than what any foreign land can ever......

Is reality stranger than fiction or fiction stranger then reality .....
Is reality stranger than imagination or imagination stranger then reality .....!!
This is one question I really can't decide to be on which side. On one hand we have sci-fi movies which boasts of unimaginable creatures and planets with weird life etc.. n on other in real world such a strange coincidence game is in play..that one thing leads to another to be at some point when you reflect back...was it a destiny? Was it already written somewhere.....
We marvel at the unique play of circumstances that make the beautiful moment..so mmuch is at stake..n so much comes together for one moment ...
Amazed...at the real world..wonder who creates this and who drives this..how is it so simple for that being to connect billions of life and interwine in unique unparallel ways........If it isn't divine then what is it...........

crisis is what makes you....
its the crisis which determines who you are...running away from it is not gonna help you in any manner..
face it, recognise it ...see what is it that you are afraid of..and then when you come most calmly out of it..u know your new infinite strength..you have no boundations..you have no limits..its your own self made depiction that bothers you..step out..n be alive..live your life..savor the world...things fall in place eventually..they always do..they happen for a reason..don't regret ever, learn and grow rich with each experience...be the positivity you want in world, be the elegance you expect to get......
you have many things to be grateful for ...recollect the times when you were cared for, when it was least expected..may God bestow the right sense...
Nindak neare rakhiye...isn't rahiman was gr8..a jogi..the concept itself is so appealing...turn to the truth with right approach ..n sing along the melody of life....

enough joy to savor the little around,
enough courage to stand amidst raging crowd..
enough belief to stand the rising tide ,
enough patience to witness the day dawn...
is it not the way life should be...
is it not whats in built in our being
then why do we create havoc
on tiniest grounds
n y do we fail to smile n dance
on greatest treasures abound
what prevents our deepest expressions of love
what makes us stand n be lame
to be part of the crowd
who created this two existence
whose ideas is that we try to abide?

Le Fabuleux Destin d Amelie Poulain ...
As Amelie leaves it to test of time. if it leads to good she will help humanity else "too bad""..same is the story for u so many times...the deadly elongated portrayals of probable causes of things not on time as she planned and expected is outright funny
From the portrayals of childish Amelie trying to pass time by various amusing things, strawberry eating game esp. , to the terror of her eyes with the notion that she is the reason behind numerous tragic happening's then her revenge with the one who deceived her in believing that, to the grown up Amelie with the shine of her eyes when she discovers all people smiling at the dark in movie theater and to getting her way to all things .
It all seems like a sweet game n you become a co-conspirator in her various mischief's and the good doer in her pursuits...you find a share of glory in all her little success and you pray for the things to get the right way... At last you feel the hesitance on her behalf and your success when all goes well
.. Loved the movie ...its pretty amazing movie and indeed a must watch!!!
11th Oct 13 - Rewatched this movie. This time what strikes out is the painter, the innovative ways of Amelie to get people do things, and an amazing imagination interwoven with reality. Time stands still, the world changes, the regularity is no-where close, which job, which promotion, which life, what turmoil, there's nothing left of it...its as if to fill the moments of your linear life, with bubble wraps, or the photo's - of the mystery man, who after all - isn't a dead-man after remembrance, but a mystery man, its the ghost of scary houses, who is after all a human, with touch and contact that can only convey love. There's nothing to be scared of. the demons of people and their nefarious acts - do almost come like a dragon towards the end, but yet wonderfully so - the imagination rules, though in form of cat - only to be ascertained moments later, its all your imagination, make it as beautiful, as you can...In love with this movie. It speaks some other language.. Sign language? Who is the protagonist here, the dwarf traveling the world, the retirement - not well taken? The bullied servant,
obsessed with lady Di's or the frustration of painter with the glass palace, only to be mesmerized at the end, that its a lovely fine emotion after all and nothing can take it away from her, she can stand life. and more so, built it as per imagination.
No, no though it feels like, I should stop here, put it to rest, but I need to mention the dialogue where there are only two explanations of his being absent/10 minutes late then the set time of 4O'clk - its either he never got the message, the sweeper swept it off or he did got the message - an the long narration traversing worlds , only to reaffirm "she can't be upset because of a guy- who eats ... and " . This particular dialogue is just so awesome!!!
Since I am on it, also this time what strikes out, is the mention of stars - in different context, most prominently the rich people shooting of there ashes to the newly discovered stars - in aim to shine forever. Now this was absolute delight!! Couldn't help but smile at the bewildering thoughts..
The part where Amelie doubts and watches the end she meets, well its the one which gets the story forward. Also the discovery that changes her life forever. The one news, the one cap drops and the one brick to golden times and the devotion for a cause. Wow, simply awesome :) !!!

What is the image of Complex?
When I think of complex, something which just goes over my head, its
some multidimensional space that fits perfectly in theories satisfies
formulae and equations and blocks my head with all its complexity and
take some to far away world. Some faculty mentions six dimensional space
and Orthogonality of vectors therein with emphasis on what happens when
Vector rotates; all I can visualize is a lone little vector trying to
rotate around a point. BY six dimension I see the three sides of room
getting round and round to somehow give six perpendicular directions ..
Oh God !! then lecturer says periodic trajectories are easy but
Orthogonal is complicated but yes in the neighborhood u can always
study the properties easily. Its then when my mind wanders on the view
of all natural objects I forget of vectors, equilibrium and rotation of
non linear dynamical or linear - all seems so senseless . Why the heck -
few theorems which are supposedly the greatest truths in mathematical
formulations helping to decipher the real world..but to me it is just a
round round rotating word and its all over making no sense..I give up
with something which can never be understood -- its just something to
struggle with till the last exam . Why don't you get a PC and show the
vectors you want me to visualize , why just talk show its properties
graphically -- its such a waste .. Non linear Space -- hope somebody
understands you well to explain in the best way..

A Million Dollar Baby...
The story most beautifully woven and aesthetically portrayed coudn't be portrayed more convincingly.
But till the last moment the hopeful spirit within me wanted her to survive..for some miracle and her to rise..Same way as we want to fight her last battle and tell the blue lady what she deserves!!
The moment of her 31st B'Day when she lashes out that okk I am 31 and only hopeful moment to me is when I am in boxing and you suggest I can't be champion unless I am 37 . Well is the calculated age and timeframe is the criterion..? Don't pity me, I just need a trainer...!!
? Then learn and listen to what you want, and I am fighter by instinct not by training..
To make enemies touch ground in first round, was her speciality.
Pretty amazing movie with no comeback..yet its perfect in every way..!!

Maturity... is it?
I will never understand this term called maturity. No I mean how mean, how cunning , how heartless you need to be to be mature...or wait lemme correct myself..how down to earth, how least expectant and how most giving and forgiving leads you to maturity...either way the truth resides..but maturity evades me. But as an observer I have seen myself failing on various fronts and wishing if only I was more mature..while the action of instant/instinct guides the way still. I have seen few real gentlemen/elegant ladies in my life.. they all inspired me to be great..to be mature..to be of the kind.. they are the real difference makers...they don't live to earn, earn to buy, buy to please, please to
exist. But they have something in them.. a substance which needs no fancy things, no 8 digit salaries.. its in their being.. their existence is priceless...
If maturity is being of the type.. I wish to be mature... !!!
