Everything is a Knowldge

What is a knowledge?
According to me everything is a knowledge. Whether it is a good or a bad, silly/crusial,beutifull/ugly.
each and every step in life is a knowldge. every body we meet each day,each secound are our respected teacher's(all creatures in this earth).
If you come across with a bad personality, you will learn, what we should not, if you come across with a good person, you should learn what we have to do and how we have to be..

Actually in this modern world, we have a false impression about the knowledge. We always refer knowledge and education as a single entitiy..

Let me ask you a simple question..

What is your mother tongue?.. Hold on, let me give a deffenation of Mother tongue...

A language, which does'nt come by Systematic study..It comes by birth, by seeing others,by trying,by practice, simply just like that.....! cool na...

Now you can go ahead with your answer's..

let me answer first.. My mother tongue is Kannada....

Now, we all answer what is our comfort level in our respective mother tongue..

I am very much comfortable, i can convey everything, without thinking for secound..

But i have learnt Hindhi, English by conventional study, still i am not very much comfortable as my mother tongue.

by this example you would have been started thinking about the knowledge...

Lot of my friends use to tell (even i, at early part of my life), I have to go for MA,MD,MBA,MS,MTech..

why?

most of the time my answer for this was, to be in a great position in carrier, i didnt find any other reason...really?..

I thought, without doing PG, can'nt we gain a equal(much more) knowledge?.

we can...

knowledge is like a light, and education is a lighter.I think, we have to change our perception about the education...most of us waste our life time in spending years together in persiving the PG, PHD, by forgetting the fact that, we have,nt even utilized 0.001% of what we have learned before perciving the PG/PHD...according to me you should continue your education, untill you feel that it had enlighten your subconciousness.
Think about our great scientists. did they spent much time in conventional study..?

In the present rapid transitting world. Education is grilled and it has taken a different mode altogether.

I remember in olden days people use to say..

hey my days 10 standard is equal to thease days Bsc..(I hope you have also heard this)

initially i felt, what this bugger is telling..

Now i realized they were right..?

can you think the reason. because education should be a right combination of natural as well as a conventional objects, then only it will be effective, other wise it will always be deffective..!.

where there is a right sanskrithi, good ness, right people and good character there is a education

so , please watch each and every objects in the universe and derive right things out of it.

Memories of Mumbai.

I was very much nervous, when our SBU told me to go on deputation to MUMBAI.

my spontaneous reaction to that is, Noooo! I can’t. a movement, I imagined the words what others told about Mumbai

Train..!
Crowd…!
Dust…!
Pick pocketers in train….!
Humidity…!
Hot…!

Hell lot of stuff’s. I can’t.

What is this, God is bad .This is what, I told initially. (Let us see what I told letter)

Unfortunately I met another soul (Mincho), who was also asked to go to Mumbai.

Finaly we struggled a lot to work out some strategies at office and we are finally set to feel the Mumbai punch..

I am first time going to see such a big city, I mean Bangalore was the first biggest city I have ever seen in my life..

so anything is a wonder for me.

Office has booked our air tickets and they informed us.

I was amazed to here that. I remember, I use to dream about flying in Airoplane. At least once in my life time.

I told to my self, beta God is gr8 man.. coooool

With two big bags (My address banner is attached to it) I came to airport, Mincho looked at me and laughed sarcastically.
Innocently he asked, are you traveling by air for the first time.
I said Yes. (by controlling my exagduration…!)

I had seen lot of satellite Images and Aireal photography,with that knowledge, I could able to locate lots of check dams, water sheds, Ground terrain model.It's a great experience.

When we came to Mumbai it was Daaam hot. Too crowdy. Dirt
More important factor is wherever I looked, there was a series of old buildings. Now I was very enthusiastic about our accommodation. As I traveled towards Khandivili (Actually it’s Khandivali, Talib corrected it for me) my imagination about office accommodation getting worsen and worsen.

When we reached Whispering Palms. Really I was amazed to see the huge building (20 storied). And the town ship, it was great.. I realy whispered…!

Second miracle … again I said God is some more gr88…

I learnt that, “work hard, expect less, A perfect way to happiness”

I will just give you a proof for this proverb

so far my expectation were moving towards negative y axis.

After seeing the accommodation, it started moving towards positive y axis (In a rapid phase)

My expectations about office was very much high by the time I reached office.

Finally when I reached office, I thought ohhh My…….what’s this..fish..

Finally when I reached the working place, I didn’t thought that, I will get, such a right cubicle, again god was much more gr888 man.

As the day went I started seeing around me. Let me introduce some of the important persons whom I met in my next post.

Inspiration Inside..(you and you alone who can change yourlife..)

He was short.He was sharp.He was the brightest boy in hisclass.His seniors would ask him to solve their difficulties inScience.He could have go unnoticed in the crowd, but once you askedhim a question related to Physics or Maths, there was a spark in hiseyes.He could Grasp theories of Science faster than the speed oflight.

He came from a poor but educated family.His father was ahigh-school teacher and an avid reader of english literature.He, likeall the boys int he class was trying to get addmission into someengineering college.The brighter ones wanted to study in he IndianInstitutes of Technology,or the IIT's.There was an entrance test forIIT.This boy,along with his friends applied to appear for thetest.They did not have any special books or coaching.All these IITaspirants would sit below the shade of a stone mantap close tochamundi hills in the sleepy town of Mysore.He was a guide forothers.While the others struggled to solve problems in the questionpaper,he would smile shyly and solve them in no time.He sat below atree and dreamt of studying at IIt.He was then only sixteen years old.

D-Day came.He came to Bangalore,stayed with some relatives andappeared for the entrance test.He did very well but would only say"OK" when asked.It was the opposite when it came to food...."OK"implied bad, "good" implied ok, and "very good" implied good!!Hisprinciple was
never to hurt anyone....

The IIt entrance resutls came.He had passed with flying colorsand the hightest rank.He was thrilled!He went to his father who wasreading a newspaper.

"ANNA,I have passed the exam"

"WEll done,My Boy".
"I want to join IIT".

His father stopped reading the paper.He lifted his head, Looked atthe boy and said with a heavy voice"You know our finaincialposition,and i cannot afford your expenses at IIT.You can stay inMysore and learn as much as you want."His father was sad that he hadto tell the bitter truth,but it could not be helped.

The teenager was dissappointed.He was so near to fulfilling hisfondest dream ,yet so far.His heart sank in sorrow.

He did not reply.He never shared his unhappines with anyone.Hewas an introvert by nature.His heart was bleeding but he did not getangry with anyone.

The day came,his classmates were leaving for madras(today calledchennai).They were leaving from Mysore to chennai.They had shared goodyears at school and he went to wish them good luck for their future.Atthe station his friends were already there.They were excited anddiscussing their new hostels,new courses etc.So he stood theresilently.One of his friends
noticed and said"You should have made it"

He did not reply .He just wished them.He stood there even afterhe could no longer see the train or the waving hands.It was June 1962in the mysore city.Yet he stood there motionless.

He said to himslef ,without anger or jealously," All studentsfrom the IIT's study well and do big things in life.But it is not the institution ,ultimately it is you and you alone who can change yourlife by hard work".

This son of a school teacher became a pioneer of India's softwareindustry.He is none other than Infosys founder and present Chairman,Narayana Murthy.His motto being ,"Powered by intellect ,Driven byValues".

Matrix, A perfect Mirror to present world

I don't no how many of you have seen 'Matrix', An english movie which is basically a War of illusionary world.
This movie is a perfect example of our present falsy illusionary world. I mean we also presently
leaving in such a illusion without realizing it. After all, how we can?

we are just running behind the false trends, without knowing what the trend is about.
on the other hand we are hesitating to know the real factors of life, a kind of ignorence.

when i heard a proverb "Necessity is the mother of Invention", for the first time

i asked my self, following questions..

What is necessity?
Why create necessity?
without it,do we die?
we can't keep quite thats why?

Finally i got some facts which gave a sort of hint.

Olden days people tried to full fill there primary needs.. it goes somthing like this.

Before stone age human use to eat availble fruits and he use to die one day.
In stone age he started eating Animal and he use to die one day.
started cultivation. from here on necessity started growing and he use to die one day.
started fighting for land and he use to die one day.
Riegn of kings started. They started fighting for kingdom, girl etc..and he use to die one day
Then came science age, Einstine, newton etc Primary invention started and he use to die one day.
presently it's technology age. As a honour to our prdicessor (scientists), we kept there inventions as foundation, started building technology (on top of it!!!)..we also die one day.

So what we can conclude..

We create the necessity? why..

because we want to cry, feel sorrow,get anger,feel happy,get frustrated,want to cheat,to be jealous, to kill others, to die many more we can list.

Ohhh! then.

We created all these things, then why hesitation to accept some of the above factors.

You can ask me, then why the hell are you in this illusion? get lost..
My simple answer is, Only to bring others out of this illusion, we have to be in illusion, Like "Matrix"

Every body of us Know the above factor. But the problem is, we are not yet realized it.

So what i conclude is
Apart from our falsy world tight shcedule, we have to realize the real factors of life (Try to be good,kind to others, motivate others, help etc etc)..
and try to incorporate slowly one by one.

So that one day you realize the truth of life.

Note for Software Proffesionals:
I feel Software is a Extrimity of this illusionary world.We are 100's of miles away from our primary needs.Most of our life style is a perfect example to foolish ness.

PS: after going through this artical, if you observed lot of spelling mistake. It means you are still in illussion.Dont give stress on spelling's, Emphasise on content (if i say one, you should derive 1000 out of it).

Everything happens for a reason

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of luck. Illness, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test limits of your soul.

Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet affect your life. The successes and downfalls that you experience can create whom you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact they are probably the most poignant and important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them because they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart.

Uniqueness

Enjoy that uniqueness. You do not have to pretend in order to seem more like someone else. You weren't meant to be like someone else. You do not have to lie to conceal the parts of you that are not like what you see in anyone else.

You were meant to be different. Nowhere ever in all of history will the same things be going on in anyone's mind, soul and spirit as are going on in yours right now.

If you did not exist, there would be a hole in creation, a gap in history, something missing from the plan for humankind. Treasure your uniqueness. It is a gift given only to you. Enjoy it and share it!
No one can reach out to others in the same way that you can. No one can speak your words. No one can convey your meanings. No one can comfort with your kind of comfort. No one can bring your kind of understanding to another person.

No one can be cheerful and lighthearted and joyous in your way. No one can smile your smile. No one else can bring the whole unique impact of you to another human being.

Share your uniqueness. Let it be free to flow out among your family and friends and people you meet in the rush and clutter of living wherever you are. That gift of yourself was given you to enjoy and share. Give yourself away!

See it! Receive it! Let it tickle you! Let it form you and nudge you and inspire you!

Does God Exist? (A positive attitude)

A professor of a university challenged his students with this question."Did God create everything that exists?" A student answered bravely,"Yes, he did".

The professor then asked, "If God created everything, then he createdevil. Since evil exists (as noticed by our own actions), so God isevil. The student couldn't respond to that statement causing theprofessor to conclude that he had "proved" that "belief in God" was afairy tale, and therefore worthless.

Another student raised his hand and asked the professor, "May I pose aquestion? ", "Of course" answered t! he professor.

The young student stood up and asked : "Professor does Cold exists?"
The professor answered, "What kind of question is that?...Of coursethe cold exists... haven't you ever been cold?"

The young student answered, "In fact sir, Cold does not exist.According to the laws of Physics, what we consider cold, in fact isthe absence of heat. Anything is able to be studied as long as ittransmits energy (heat). Absolute Zero is the total absence of heat,but cold does not exist. What we have done is create a term todescribe how we feel if we don't have body heat or we are not hot."

"And, does Dark exist?", he continued.

The professor answered "Of course". This time the student responded,"Again you're wrong, Sir. Darkness does not exist either. Darkness isin fact simply the absence of light. Light can be studied, darknesscan not. Darkness cannot be broken down. A simple ray of light tearsthe!darkness and illuminates the surface where the light beam finishes.Dark is a term that we
humans have created to describe what happenswhen there's lack of light."

Finally, the student asked the professor, "Sir, does evil exist?"

The professor replied, "Of course it exists, as I mentioned at thebeginning, we see violations, crimes and violence anywhere in theworld, and those things are evil." The student responded, "Sir, Evildoes not exist. Just as in the previous cases, Evil is a term whichman has created to describe the result of the absence of God'spresence in the hearts of man.

After this, the professor bowed down his head, and didn't answer back.The young man's name was ALBERT EINSTEIN.

Good,Bad and Living dharma.....

What is good, what is bad?

According to me everything and every one in this world are good.
None of us want to be bad. right?

Now, we have an obvious question....

Is Laloooo is right?
IS Osama is right?
Is Veerappan is right?

Yes, according to there views, they are right..!!!!
Probably we all know that, we are the best pretenders for oneself. right?
so let us define good and bad..

If your views were rejected/unaccepted by the majority, then our views are considered as bad, other wise it's good.

We are purely a social organisms.

In this world a person with bad views will also have his own followers right?

Why it is so?

Because, good and bad stuffs are originated from the society, defined by the society and it's for the society...

a stuff which looks good for you, may be looks bad for me. It’s all our views.

can we say lion is bad, because it kills a deer?..
can we say eagle is bad, because it hunts a snake?

Lot's of natural life cycle processes, even though it's looks like bad, but we cant say it is bad.

Each and every organism has it's own style of living and Dharma, which comes by nature.

Good and bad are the very essential part of the society and it's Living Dharma.
