If you had to describe your ideal life, what would it look like?
We have all felt our sense of time vanish when we lose ourselves in an activity we enjoy. We spend an afternoon with a book and forget about the world going by until we notice the sunset and realise we haven’t eaten dinner. We go surfing and don’t realise how many hours we have spent in the water until the next day when our muscles ache.
When you performing your favourite things, your body and consciousness united as a single entity. You completely immersed in the experience, not thinking about or distracted by anything else. Your ego dissolves, and you totally become the part of what you doing.
Put you your hand on a hot stove for a minute it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That is Einstein’s theory of relativity. Tasks which makes us enjoy doing something so much that we forget about worries we have.
As long as I live, there must be a certain flow in everything i do. Manage more time for the things I really want to do which help to reduce dipression of my life. Time to time i challenge myself to push my limits, break the records which I made earlier. My ideal life should be something like this.
What’s a mystery from your own life that you’ve never solved?
Someone make a political party contests the first election and becomes Chief Minister of a state without any political background. Another has inherited politician, yet has been struggling for years.
There’s a saying ‘only that success is worthwhile that is earned through hard work’. But can success be ensured only through hard work?
Can it be said that if one strives hard enough, success will surely follow? What can be said about the poor who, despite struggling all their lives, remain poor, even more.
Often the situation is such that no matter what one does, success is still not achieved. But we only talk about the struggles of those who succeed. It’s them who we talk about and stories are written.
Like an author who writes 50 books, he worked very hard in his lifetime. But hardly any of his books became famous. After his death, people forgot him.
Another author wrote just one book and became so famous that generations of people remembered him and his book. Perhaps the author himself never expected something like this to happen.
I still haven’t understood this mystery. Perhaps some things are beyond our control. What’s in our control is simply trying and keep trying, with patience and dedication.
In any democratic nation, the right to vote is not just a privilege but a fundamental cornerstone of the governance system. But this time nine million voters about 12% of West Bengal’s 76 million electorate, who have been removed from the 2026 rolls as part of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise.
Of these nine million, more than six million names were struck off as absentee or deceased voters, while the fate of another 2.7 million remains undecided and will be determined by tribunals.
India’s Election Commission says the revision is meant to weed out duplicate or outdated entries and add genuine voters.
Gyanesh Kumar, the chief election commissioner, has said the revision exercise’s aim is to ensure a “pure electoral roll” with no eligible voters excluded and no ineligible persons included.
The tensions have been fuelled by remarks from political leaders, including from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who have suggested in campaign speeches that the clean-up is aimed at identifying so-called “illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators”.
A term the TMC ruling government in the state says is being used to refer to Muslims. However, many Hindu voters have also been left out from the list.
In India the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are a global biodiversity hotspot, with the Andaman group belonging to the Indo-Burma hotspot and the Nicobar group part of the Sundaland hotspot.
Despite making up only 0.25% of India’s land area, they host over 10% of the country’s faunal species, including more than 1,000 endemic species found nowhere else on Earth.
It have tropical rainforests which Cover approximately 86% of the land area, featuring giant evergreen and moist deciduous forests.
Mangrove Forests are highly productive nurseries for marine life cover about 12% of the islands’ area.
It have huge marine biodiversity which is surrounding waters are a “rainforest in the sea,” teeming with over 1,200 fish species and rare sea turtles like the leatherback.
While significant portions are protected as Tribal Reserves, National Parks, or Wildlife Sanctuaries, the hotspot faces modern pressures.
But government declare large-scale infrastructure project, such as the proposed Great Nicobar mega-project, risks the loss of millions of trees and critical habitats.
UN chief Guterres urges immediate reopening of Strait of Hormuz
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical maritime choke points, carrying around a quarter of global seaborne oil trade and significant volumes of liquefied natural gas and fertilizers.
The Strait of Hormuz has now been effectively sealed by the chaos of the Iran war for nearly two months, starving the global economy of essentials.
The 39 kilometre-wide passage normally serves as a primary funnel for energy, fertilizer, and critical raw materials like sulphur.
But fully free navigation might not be realistic for a long time. Dire consequences are predicted. It’s not just petroleum byproducts and gas, it’s the many vital things that can be manufactured as gas byproducts.
Fertilizer, for example, Qatar utilizes its massive gas capacity to churn out the most popular form of nitrogen fertilizer in large quantities.
Sulphur is another byproduct about half of the seaborne trade in this crucial element of battery production normally transits the strait.
Success is a public celebration and Failure is a deeply personal affair. The burden of which a person has to bear Silently on his own shoulders.
It’s feel a sense of unease Like everything is out of control It’s human to feel lost somewhere Unable to understand the situation in which he is stuck deeply.
May you feel sacred about circumstances, change, stillness, and how you will face the challenges that await you.
It’s human feel uncertain to your decisions, planning, stretegy, every step you take and every choices you made. What would the path be like, would it reach its destination.
You will never find the perfect situation you are probably waiting for. You don’t have all the answer when exactly you needed that But you have to move forward You have to face next step and continuously next.
The Immortal Story of Sevagram, Mahatma and Humanity’s Test.
Parchure Shastri, a profound Sanskrit scholar, was suffering from leprosy. He had been ostracized by his family and society due to his disease. In this situation, Parchure Shastri wrote a letter to Gandhiji. When Bapu read this letter in the prayer meeting, silence fell over Sevagram. In that era, leprosy was not just a disease, but a social stigma. People used to run away from leprosy patients.
Breaking the silence of the prayer meeting, Gandhiji said that if your heart does not feel compassion for the immense suffering of a leprosy patient, then I will only say that Parchure Shastri will stay in the hut next to mine in Sevagram, and I myself will serve him. Leprosy is not impurity or contagiousness, but a test of our compassion.
A few days later, Parchure Shastri arrived at Sevagram. Gandhiji himself began to serve him. Serving Shastriji, washing his wounds, bandaging them, bathing him with his own hands, feeding him with his own hands became Gandhiji’s daily routine. The eyes of those who witnessed this scene would well up with tears, seeing the Father of the Nation himself washing the feet of a patient and wiping his body with a towel.
In June 1945, during the Shimla talks, when Viceroy Lord Wavell adjourned the talks for 7 days, Narayan Bhai Desai was planning to explore the valleys of Shimla. But Gandhiji surprised everyone by ordering them to return to Sevagram. Narayan Bhai Desai said that Bapu, it will take two days to reach by train and two days to return by train. What will we do by going to Sevagram for three days? Gandhiji said that I will get three days to serve Parchure Shastri. After a long train journey from Shimla, Gandhiji returned to Sevagram. There, Parchure Shastri was in an extremely weak state. Gandhiji placed his hand on his head, smiled, and said, “Shastriji, I have returned. Now my mind is at peace.”
Gandhiji paused his political deliberations for three days and resumed his old routine. Morning and evening, he served Parchure Shastri, cleaning his wounds. “God Himself Has Touched My Wounds”. Shastriji’s condition was serious, but his face glowed with satisfaction at Gandhiji’s arrival. All he could utter was, “Bapu, it seems that God himself has touched my wounds.”
On September 5, 1945, Parchure Shastri passed away in Sevagram. Even today, “Parchure Kuti” in Sevagram Ashram is alive, where every brick bears witness to compassion, equality, and humanity. On his demise, Gandhiji said, “Parchure Shastri taught us that love is the greatest cure for every wound.” From Gandhiji’s life, we learn that greatness lies not in high positions, but in bending down to wipe someone’s wounds. Healing comes not only from medicines but from that touch imbued with ‘belongingness’.
Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.
I headed to coaching today, eager to share a lot of things. With every pedal of my bicycle, I’d find myself dreaming of something new: I’d talk about this, or not that. Well, she didn’t give me a chance to speak, she had to tell me everything, no matter how much I planned to talk.
In the electric haze of teenage, if someone of the opposite gender becomes a friend, then that person remains in your heart and mind whole day and night.
And the weather today had also become a tad dreary. Each drop of rain seemed to generate a new energy, a sense of strangerhood that brought with it a lot of freedom, a vision of a golden future, as if the whole world was in my hands and I am the boss.
We both arrived almost together and ran towards the stairs to escape the rain. I grabbed her hand so she wouldn’t slip. She turned back, looked at me, and said, “Now that you’ve held my hand, don’t let it go.” Since it was raining, no one had come yet, we had ample opportunity to talk.
It was a dialogue from a movie, the punchline of which she uttered. In that very movie, the leading actors were childhood friends and then drifted apart, but never forgot each other. They met again many years later.
While narrating the story of that movie, she said randomly, “Let us become strangers once again, we will meet again when both of us have established our careers”.
Describe a positive thing a family member has done for you.
The people in my life who shape my world, actions, and perspective, making my life feel meaningful, gives me a purpose, fueled it with the vision and courage.
Not only every direction is guided by them but they also pays the expenses incurred in going on that direction, whether I reach the destination of that road or not. They only can be my parents.
How I describe one positive thing, every positive thing that has happened in my life, from birth until today, has happened because of their love and inspiration. They both spent more than they could afford on my upbringing.
How do I count their endless efforts that shape my life. I must have heard their taunts and scolding to protect me, but it was all for my betterment. Where else will you find such selfless love, who never expect any thing in return from you.
