National Integrity

I have come for the first time to study out of my hometown, and that too almost 2000 kms away from my native place...! But I feel very happy to become a part of a prestigious institute like IIT Kharagpur...!!!

IIT or any such national level institutes are the place where you can smell the fragrance of India, you can feel that the whole India is situated in the campus of the university..!! But are we Integrated? Is our nation, where you can find many different culture integrated...?

The answer is PARTIALLY yes. Not, fully...!!

whenever I go to mess to have food, and sit with group of persons coming from same region but other than that of mine, I feel like undergoing a big torture..!! and sense like we are lacking in National Integrity..! sometimes I am confused that are we lacking national integrity or not trying to integrate??

The reason behind this is the Language...!!

If you people have forgotten, I ll recall you that Hindi is our national language, and after coming to here only I came to know that there are some states in India, especially southern regions, where people do not know Hindi..!! Isn't it shameful?

I had once a chat with my friend who is studying right now in Tamilnadu, and I came to know that Hindi is not being taught in some schools there..!! Inspite of being an Indian, if one cannot speak hindi, nothing is more shamelful than this..!!

I ll like to put my own experience..!! Some months ago we, some classmates had gone to
Sikkim to roam in the beautiful lap of the nature. During our travelling we used to hire taxis and go to different places. One day I was in a taxi with my 5 other friends who are Telugu..!! and they just start chattering....''chepu anna...anta...nennu...something like that..!", you can feel what torture i had had for 2 hrs..!! I was just sitting like a statue..!! Sorry my friends (Balu, shiva, Rajendra...) please, don't mind..!! Not only Telugu, I found this things happeing with all regions like Bengali, Gujarati and almost all...!!

The meaning of my saying is yes, you do give priority to your mothetongue, do preserve its cultural heritage, do talk with your same cultural friends in your mothertongue but when you are sitting in a group with persons coming from other regions of India, please talk in hindi and don't put that fellow into extremly awkward position..!!

One more thing I have seen here is communities...we are from Gujarati community, we are from bengali association, we are telugu association and bla bla..!! Ofcourse, that is good thing which gives you the feel of your native land but these communities should not go beyond the identity of being an Indian...!!

Unity has always been a most striking characteristic of India, so please does not let it seperate from the name of our great nation..!! Atleast communicate in Hindi when it is needed, and if you don't know, start learning hindi..!! If you are from a state where Hindi is not being taught in school than please write to minister of that state to make students of school learn hindi...!!! We are the responsible citizen of India and we have to preserve its valuable integrity..!!

Please cooperate with my thoughts and start building a United India...!!

Life...!!

This is my very first blog, I don't know why I am writting this, I don't know why being a nonphilosophical perosn I am writting about the best philosophy ever talked, called life...!! But, today I am in a mood to do so...!!

What is life?

I feel, life is there in each and every moment, life is there in every days rather days are there in life..!! To me good a life does not mean living in bunglows ans roaming in cars (though, I would be happy having that), but Life is watching a movie with your few close friends, Life is family, Friends are life, responsibility is the part of life, and enjoyments are bonded to life..!! Do not roam around the world to find the pleasure of life while treasure of pleasure is within us only..!! Enjoy your smallest work also and try to have fun in that..!!

Some people always live in past, worry about present and afrraid of future...!!

Some are living in future and wasting their present..!!

Some are living in present in such a way that they are wasting their future..!!

I feel we should take advantage of mistakes done in past, live happily in present and plan for future to make it further happier...!! I guess majority of people are thinking like this...!!

Coming to the mysterious part of life..!!

Why are we living?

One philosophy tells that our present life is the updated version of our past life and our future life will be updated version of this life. some people are so much convinced about this philosophy that they are continuously in the effort to make their next life beautiful..what is the meaning of not living this live life to make the life after death beautiful...!!

Another philosophy says that everyone get fruits of his/her deeds in this life itself before death..!!

Science tries to reveal this secrete in its own different way...!!

But, whatever is the philosophy, keep the fragrance of this beautiful life till you are over..!! Live life positively, have fun in life, do your duties well, understand your responsibility to your family, friends, society, nation and mankind..!! let the ethics of life live...!! Either you consider as a secrete or a boon, dont waste it doing stupid and unethical things...Let the spirit of life last long...!!

This is my idea about this journey called "Life". Everyone has his/her own viewpoints towards the life....Let us share them and try to make our life as great as we can...!!!
