What could you do differently?

In the past, when mistakes happened, I would always blame someone or something and walk away from the situation. This is so easy to do, and it doesn’t make you answerable. Generally, I would always find some support whether from friends or parents, saying I wasn’t responsible for the situation.

And in this process, when any injustice is being perpetrated around us, we are unable to protest it in the same way. And we place all the responsibility on the system. Then, when something happens to us, we feel as if the entire system has sold out, everyone is in cahoots, and no one cares about justice.

Learning from mistakes involves acknowledging errors, analyzing what went wrong without blame, reframing them as growth opportunities, taking responsibility, and creating a plan to avoid repetition, which builds resilience, self-awareness, strong character and system answerable. It also include apologizing if needed in any case.

What is the greatest gift someone could give you?

After a long wait
when a gust of breeze had hit me,
bringing with it a new wave of joy,
it plays a music of love like
filling the silence of centuries
with sweet melody in an instant.
It had touched all the strings of my heart.
A constant music that seemed
to flow out of its own accord.
As if I had been waiting for
these melody for centuries.

That intricate melody brings such a deep
ocean of emotions that made me feel my existence.
A universal kind of music played in me
which is connecting me to the ultimate reality.
A feeling arose in which the entire world
seemed to belong to me.
From the earth to the sky, the sun,
the moon, mountains, rivers, fields, lakes,
cities, villages, everything seemed lovely.

If you started a sports team, what would the colors and mascot be?

After last year’s successful sports event, this time the New Year celebrations are going to be held with a cricket match. Dev foundation sponcer this event again this year and hopefully this time it will more competitive, enjoyable and memorable event.

Organising such a sports tournament can be both a rewarding and challenging experience. Whether you’re planning a small community event or a larger regional competition, creating a well-structured event requires careful planning and attention.

To enhance the prestige of this event we have invited some guests like Dr. Saurabh Mishra and Prof. Sarvesh K. Mishra. Probably they also present award and certificates to the performers. The venue is Pared Ground in Prayagraj city.

A well-run sports event can bring the us together, showcase local talent, and provide a memorable experience for everyone involved. This is new poster we launched with this colour combination.

What is your all time favorite automobile?

This journey should be such that the burden of life starts to seem easy. Which gives me personal freedom, convenience, and efficiency, allowing me to peaceful travel towards my destination.

It should give me confidence, reputation, dignity and self respect on my own decided schedules, access in the the area where I need, instead of other moods of transportation.

It should provide comfort, security, and the ability to give service during crucial time for me and my families in any kind of emergencies.

And take me towards nature, remote locations and help me explore more this land where my soul feel ecstasy. Also fundamentally shaping modern life, economies, and accessibility.

Nature has blessed everyone with different perticularity but some people only see their own. Stay away from those who only understand the world as it serve them, who just listen enough to respond loud but never enough to feel.

People who cannot step outside their own perspective will always make you question your reality, emotion and truth. Without thinking, they create such a strong perception that the entire fault lies with in the other person.

Perhaps there was no need for it, there was never anything like that. Protect your heart from those who lack empathy, who dismiss what they can’t personally relate to. You deserve to seen with depth, met with compassion, heard without filter.

Is your life today what you pictured a year ago?

When a period of struggle drags on, hopes are nipped in the bud and too much time lost in that toxic situation. You worry in calculate the damages, even if anything is achieved in between, it’s hard to tell.

There is no limit to progress, once something is achieved, a person automatically sets a new target. Who lives life so calculatedly, calculating what they’ve lost and what gained? Life is about liveliness and carefreeness, it’s not a calculator.

Healing has no deadline, joy doesn’t expire. As long as you are breathing change is possible. Every sunrise is a proof that light returns. We just keep moving with the support of hope, perhaps just moving on is what life is all about.

This is the fact that now you have more experience, strength and wisdom than ever before. Believe that good things still find you in between chaos. And there is never too late, what could not be done then will be done in this new year.

What cities do you want to visit?

Madhya Pradesh (M.P), a large state in central India, retains landmarks from eras throughout Indian history. It have world famous Hindu and Jain temples at Khajuraho are renowned for their carvings of erotic scenes, most prominently Kandariya Mahadeva, a temple with more than 800 sculptures.

The eastern Bandhavgarh and Kanha national parks, noted Bengal tiger sanctuaries, offer guided safaris. One half of the state is forested and offers a unique panorama of wildlife. In the National Parks of Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Shivpuri and many others.

Three sites in Madhya Pradesh have been declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO:
The Khajuraho Group of Monuments

Hanumantiya is a popular tourist destination in the Khandwa district of Madhya Pradesh. This is one of my favourite destinations. This is also known as a waterfront resort developed by MP Tourism on the backwaters of the Indira Sagar Dam on the Narmada River.

Here view is nearly same as sea beach ⛱️with no salt water. It offering water sports, cruises, and adventure activities like kayaking, jet skiing, and during events like the “Jal Mahotsav,” ballooning and microlight flights.

What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?

Yoga is something beyond physical health and fitness. The human persona is not only a body, it is also a mind, an intellect, and a soul. Yoga attempts to harmonise all of them. In the process, one attains a healthy body, a sharp intellect, and a focused mind capable of realising personal and cosmic consciousness.

Yoga means to join. Its ultimate goal is to experience the unity of individual and universal consciousness. Yoga teaches us to recognise the fundamental unity between human beings and humankind, humans and the environment, and ultimately recognise a total interconnectedness of everything.

In Sanatan vedic literature, the word yoga was first mentioned in the Rigveda , but its philosophy, science and grammar were first provided by Patanjali in his magnum opus, Patanjali Yoga Sutra . It is heartening to note that yoga has been widely accepted across the world today.

What’s your favorite cartoon?

Tom and Jerry are the funniest of cartoon characters. The animation series shows the story of a pet cat Tom who has to chase out the naughty mouse Jerry. Jerry is always troubling Tom and stealing things from the house. Poor Tom is always trying to catch Jerry but always fails.

Jerry, though naughty, is an intelligent mouse who at times, also helps Tom. And sometimes, even Tom helps Jerry when someone else troubles him. But soon, they are back to being enemies. The funny chase and run of these two characters is what makes this cartoon series stand out.

Though Tom and Jerry are always fighting, their friendship is still evident. They teach me that we may fight with our friends, but when our friends need us, we should always be there for them.

Do you ever see wild animals?

India’s countryside continues to witness a deepening crisis of human-wildlife conflict, with increasing instances of wild animals straying into farmland and towns that often results in deaths of both wildlife and people and calls to ‘contain’ animal numbers.

Just a few weeks ago, a leopard wandered into the area near my village. It was quite a sight for a few days, then the forest department caught it and took it away. Although I didn’t see it directly but other people captured videos and photos of leopard.

As India moves ahead with infrastructure and population growth, the pressure on its wild spaces deepens. The fate of elephants, vultures, and other species depends not only on protective laws but on choices made by farmers, developers, and policymakers alike.

I enjoy observing nature closely, so I’ve seen many wild animals, some in my village, wildlife sanctuaries, and zoos. I wish for the well-being of both humans and wild animals.

Only by balancing human needs with ecological realities can India hope to safeguard its natural heritage and ensure that the forest’s silence doesn’t become permanent.
