Are We Ready To Give Back What We Have Snatched


Is this World War 3? Nature has waged a war against the human race. Well, why not? We - Humans, the supreme beings (or so we thought) stopped considering any other living species equivalent to us. We burnt their houses, captured their homes, shoved them away from their own habitat, killed them for fun and 'experientials'. All this, while not knowing that they may have the power to get back at us. It seems, now they have, all of them got together and sought help from the Mother Nature, against us. And guess what, she agreed to help them.

As a result, we humans are now pushed back to the confined gates of our houses, trapped within four walls, with our mouths shut beneath masks.

It is a war, and this time not amongst countries, or with terrorists, but the nature against us. But come on, do we ever learn. This is not the first, one of the scariest, but certainly not the first. We were given many hints earlier in the forms of floods, flu, epidemics, famine, earthquake, etc. But did we mend our ways?

No! We continued our comfortable way of living, putting other species to inconvenience and at risk. Now, look at what has happened! They are reclaiming their own lost space, again, that we snatched away from them.

Like every war, this will end too. With many casualties but this too will come to an end. Yes, after all this is over, we will still get a chance to decide, how much we have learned and are willing to implement.

So, will we be ready to co-exist - share the planet with other species, the rightful owners, as much as we are?  Are we ready to give back to them, what we have taken away?

So, Are You A Good Person Or A Nice Person?

So, are you a good person or a nice person? It’s not always good to be nice, you know. Sometimes it’s okay to be ‘just you’.   We often end up mixing the two attributes - good and nice – assuming them to be the same. But there is a vast difference between the two. What is the difference, you ask? Or is it just that I am going bonkers? Well, by definition … ·          A nice person is someone who is pleasant to be around, has good manners, and is cheerful; ·          A good person on the other hand, is someone who is honest, helpful, and morally good. A person who has generally been good tends to be nice to others, most of the time. However, the question is: should they be nice to people, even if they don’t want to? Would people consider them as ‘good’ if they are not nice any longer?   The Burden of Being Nice Here’s what I think: you might be a good person, who doesn’t want to intenti...

A Soul Stirring Journey! (Book Review)

Image Source   Book: The Seeker Author: Karan Bajaj The climax of the book is just unexpected. Well that's not how you would expect me to begin a review, but it's simply not what I had anticipated. In fact with the twists and turns I actually had no idea how the book will end. Had completely given up all my presumptions. I'll be honest, first few pages were a little boring for me. Perhaps, because the beginning is slow or maybe because I thought this packing your stuff and going away is a 'very guy' thing. Alright, the fact is I was jealous of Max, that  he could just walk away from his corporate life towards a different life...... However, I continued to read; I was curious to know   how far does Max go in order to reach that state where he feels detached from the world yet one with every tiny bit of the universe. And boy what a journey that was! I enjoyed it :)

Book Review: Suryavamsha

Book: Suryavamsha: The Noble Kings of Ancient India Author: Manjunath Dattatreya  Publication: Notion Press Mythology, I believe, encourages us to question, reason, comprehend the metaphors, go deep into philosophies and develop our own understanding of it. Suryavamsha: The Noble Kings of Ancient India , by  author Manjunath Dattatreya  does exactly the same. This book consists of several stories from the solar dynasty in brief snippets. The key essence of these stories is then highlighted. These stories attempt to answer the question of ‘why’. ‘Why or how did that event find a place in the ancient texts?'; ‘are they still relevant?’; ‘what are they trying to tell us?’
