Paradigm Shift



" Hey ! 
 Love you so much !  Itni yaad aa rahi hai na but 1500 ki party dene ke baad jeb halki ho gayi hai so can't call you so writing this mail to you. Raat ko daru party . I too drank some abhi tak hang but aapko bataya na hazzar main bhi was lonely i knew all these guys were extolling me for my job not me, my daru not me. Andar se they were jealous which many puked when they have wine flowing in their bellies

Why can't one trust or love somebody without expectations. samjh mein nahi aata. Meri class girls never talked to me in 4 years. Total cumulative time agar lagao to 10 mins hardly and they want a partyu in Haldwani Woodpecker. Maine kaha bhaad main jao.

Baki sab worse, mission CAT is back. kal shayad party ho century main dekhte hain. Kal aapki bhi chutti hai na. miss kar raha hun aapko sach main. love u.
love
Anu

[ Hey ! Love you so much ! Missing you beyond expressions but after spending 1500 rupees in party no money is left to call you so writing this mail. Yesterday night had booze party. I too drank, still hangover but I told you na that I was alone even in that crowd for I knew all these guys were extolling me for my job not me, my booze party not me. Inside they were all jealous which many puked when wine flowing in their bellies. 

I can't understand why can't one trust or love somebody without expectations. Girls of my class never talked to me in 4 years, if we calculate total cumulative, it was hardly 10 minutes and they all want party in Haldwani Woodpecker. I said, go to hell. 

Rest everything is worse, mission CAT is back. Tomorrow may be will have party in century, lets see. Guess..you also have off tomorrow... Trust me missing you so much. Love you. 

Love

This was the Anubhav she knew Five years back. Shy, introvert, not sure about himself and unaware of his worth. He aspired to be a software engineer and wanted to make it in IIT but apart from all the struggles to get through he was termed as Khurp ( They used to call Khurp to the B.Tech Agriculture students in his university). He was Studying but never with a zeal. It was final year and Companies were coming for campus recruitments and he was same with no desire to come out of his shell. Finally the destiny was not that rude, he got a chance and its not just he got a chance, it was a chance for her too, to ensure him that she trusts him for what he is...and she was sure he would make it when he still didn't have any faith left within. Very few companies came forward to recruit B.Tech. Agriculture and his name was short listed for Mahindra and Mahindra. 


He was nervous, often used to ask her if she was sure about him or not ? ..and she was as usual ready with the same confident smile giving confirmation that yes she is sure. The echo of his voice still travels through her ear drums when he called her just after the campus selection. It was at 2pm and  she was serving her lunch at Hostel Mess. She was the first one to whom he told about his achievement. She was extremely happy for getting answers of her prayers and her trust and faith in him. He was original and genuine the way he expressed his all true emotions to her at that point of time. She could still feel the warmth of his words and was actually touched. she was happy for herself too  her assessment for him as a growing individual was not wrong. It was happiness in true sense.

 He had grown professionally. Tiring working hours and long list of targets were making him indifferent for the emotions and feelings a human being is supposed to possess and which he used to cherish within, just two years back. He was not even aware but he was slowly going away from the truth of his soul. 

After having 3 years of extensive work experience he managed to get in one of the top management colleges.  Corporate sector was experiencing extreme recession that time. It was tough to be placed  in a good company even for summer training.  He made it in a well known cell phone company. This time he did not make any call to anybody not even to her. He was leaving everything behind during his growing up process. He used to be a human but now a professional. She made a usual phone call in the evening and to her surprised he picked up, " Guess what....I have made it, in a well known cell phone company :) " She was again happy with all her purity but a bit surprised  "and you didn't even tell me" and his reply was so casual "....yea I made it day before yesterday only. I am so sorry, I just forgot to tell you, I could have called you yesterday itself but I forgot." 
Holding the cell phone, she was freezed alone in the middle of the road. Vehicle were passing around and suddenly thoughts went back to his first campus selection when she was the first one to be informed and he was feeling lonely among the crowd of 1000 guys around him. Time has been changed now, so as his expression of celebrating his growing self. Now he has learned to be the part of those thousand boys and their fake smiles as that provide him a networking to grow further in corporate sector.


Its hardly makes a difference to him that even today a true soul celebrates his every single achievement as a festival of happiness and joy, no matter even if she is the last one to be informed, or not to be informed at all.

Krishan ki Chetaavni ~ Ramdhari Singh Dinkar

Whenever I read this poem, I am left speechless. Never saw such an intense and profound expression in Hindi poetry. *Bows* to Ramdhari Singh Dinkar.

कृष्ण की चेतावनी 

वर्षों तक वन में घूम घूम
बाधा विघ्नों को चूम चूम
सह धूप घाम पानी पत्थर
पांडव आये कुछ और निखर

सौभाग्य न सब दिन सोता है
देखो आगे क्या होता है ......

मैत्री की रह दिखाने को
सबको सुमार्ग पर लाने को
दुर्योधन को समझाने को
भीषण विध्वंस बचाने को

भगवान् हस्तिनापुर आये 
पांडव  का  संदेशा  लाये ...

दो न्याय अगर तो आधा दो
पर इसमें भी यदि बाधा हो
तो दे दो केवल पांच ग्राम
रक्खो अपनी धरती तमाम

हम वही ख़ुशी से खायेंगे
परिजन पर असी न उठाएंगे

दुर्योधन  वह  भी  दे  न  सका
आशीष समाज का ले न सका
उलटे  हरी को  बाँधने  चला
जो था असाध्य साधने  चला

जब नाश मनुज पर छाता है
पहले  विवेक  मर  जाता  है

हरी ने  भीषण  हुंकार  किया
अपना स्वरुप विस्तार किया
डगमग डगमग दिग्गज डोले
भगवान् कुपित होकर बोले

जंजीर बढ़ा अब साध मुझे
हाँ हाँ  ! दुर्योधन बाँध मुझे

यह देख गगन मुझमें लय  है
यह देख पवन मुझमें लय  है
मझमें विलीन झंकार सकल
मुझमें विलीन संसार सकल

अमृत्तव फूलता है मुझमें
संघार  झूलता  है  मुझमें

उदयचल मेरे दीप्त भाल
भूमंडल वक्ष स्थल विशाल
भुज परिधि बाँध को घेरे हैं
मैनाक मेरु पग मेरे हैं

दिखते जो  ग्रह नक्षत्र -निकर
सब हैं मेरे मुख के अन्दर .....

शक है तो दृश्य अकाण्ड देख
मुझमें सारा भ्रह्मांड देख
चर-अचर जीव, जग क्षर-अक्षर
नश्वर मनुष्य सुरजाति अमर

शतकोटी सूर्य शत कोटि चन्द्र
शतकोटी कोटि सरित सर सिन्धु मंद्र

शतकोटी  विष्णु  ब्रह्मा  महेश
शत कोटि विष्णु जलप ति  धनेश
शत कोटि रूद्र शत कोटि काल
शतकोटी दण्डधर लोकपाल

जंजीर बाधा कर साध इन्हें
हाँ हाँ  ! दुर्योधन बाँध इन्हें !

भूलोक अतल पाताल  देख
गत और अनागत काल देख
यह देख जगत का आदि सृजन
यह देख महाभारत का  रण ..

मृतकों से पटी हुयी भू है
पहचान कहाँ इसमें तू है ....

अम्बर में कुंतल जाल देख
पद के  नीचे  पाताल  देख
मुट्ठी  में  तीनो  काल  देख
मेरा स्वरुप विकराल देख

सब जन्म मुझी से पाते हैं
फिर लौट मुझी में आते हैं .....

जिह्वा के कढती ज्वाल सघन
साँसों  में  पाता  जन्म  पवन
पड़ जाती मेरी दृष्टि जिधर
हँसने   लगती  सृष्टि  उधर

मैं  जभी मूंदता हूँ लोचन
चा जाता चारों ओर  मरण....

बाँधने मुझे तो  आया है
जंजीर बड़ी क्या लाया है ?
यदि मुझे बांधना चाहे मन
पहले तू बाँध अनंत गगन

सूने को साध न सकता है
वह मुझे बाँध कब सकता है ?

हित वचन नहीं तुने माना
मैत्री का मूल्य न पहचाना
तो ले मैं भी अब जाता हूँ
अंतिम संकल्प सुनाता हूँ

याचना नहीं अब रण होगा !
जीवन जय या कि मरण होगा !

टकरायेंगे नक्षत्र-निकर
बरसेगी भू पर वह्नि प्रखर
फण शेषनाग का डोलेगा
विकराल काल मुह खोलेगा

दुर्योधन ! रण ऐसा होगा
फिर कभी नहीं जैसा होगा ...

भाई पर भाई टूटेंगे 
विष बाण बूंद से छूटेंगे 
वायस श्रृगाल सुख लूटेंगे 
सौभाग्य मनुज के फूटेंगे 

आखिर तू भूशायी होगा 
हिंसा का पर दाई होगा ...  

थी सभा सन्न , सब लोग डरे
चुप थे  या  थे  बेहोश  पड़े
केवल दो नर न अघाते थे
धृतराष्ट्र-विदुर सुख पाते थे।

कर जोड़ खड़े प्रमुदित निर्भय
दोनों करते थे जय-जय ....!!!!

Its All in Your Mind : Wake up Start - Ups !!

I am a child with *Special Needs* if its about the understanding of Economics, Market and Business, still daring to reflect on one of the related issues. Yes I am courageous and daring especially if its playing with words :) If we technically look at our lives, we all are traders and managing ups and downs , sometimes tactfully and some times forcefully. Often we get influenced by something just because we feel we have to be the part of that process as everybody else is experiencing it. But, things may be different if we stop following the trends for the sake of  following it. Lets have a look on this interesting story :

This Story is about a man who once upon a time was selling Hotdogs by the roadside.



"He was illiterate, so he never read newspapers.

He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio.

 His eyes were weak, so he never watched television.

But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs.

He was smart enough to offer some attractive schemes to increase his sales.

His sales and profit went up.

He ordered more a more raw material and buns and use to sale more. 

He recruited few more supporting staff to serve more customers.

He started offering home deliveries. Eventually he got himself a bigger and better stove.

As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated from College, joined his father.

Then something strange happened.

The son asked, "Dad, aren´t you aware of the great recession that is coming our way?" 

The father replied, "No, but tell me about it." The son said, "The international situation is terrible.

The domestic situation is even worse. We should be prepared for the coming bad times."

The man thought that since his son had been to college, read the papers, listened to the radio and watched TV.

He ought to know and his advice should not be taken lightly.

So the next day onwards, the father cut down the his raw material order and buns, took down the colourful signboard, removed all the special schemes he was offering to the customers and was no longer as enthusiastic.

He reduced his staff strength by giving layoffs.

Very soon, fewer and fewer people bothered to stop at his hotdog stand.

And his sales started coming down rapidly, same is the profit.

The father said to his son, "Son, you were right".
"We are in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am glad you warned me ahead of time." 

 MORAL OF THE STORY: It´s all in your MIND! And we actually FUEL the crises and recession much more than it is.

 Dear Start-Ups 

We are traveling on the road of life, such situations are unavoidable, but that doesn't mean we should stop using the assets we are having in our hands. And we all know that change is the only permanent thing, so its kind of confirm that things will not remain same, then why to loose something we have in our hands just because we have already lost something. Its not the time for cribbing for the things we have lost or we are loosing, its the time to save our true fighting self, for one can loose nothing if one has teamed up with the fighter hidden somewhere in all of us.


Keep Fighting, keep moving for you all are the warrior class... 

Archana :)
