Goodbye Kalam

A.P.J. Kalam is not our president anymore.His tenure of 5 years have completed like a dream to all of us. We, Indians have seen many philosophers,thinkers and leaders acquiring the post of president but none was as popular among people like Kalam.

In the 21st century. We are looking for youths to lead India as a world power. But youth of this country also needed a visionary icon to follow.This chance was provided by Kalam to youths of nation. I can only say from the feeling of good bye to Kalam "Dream a dream to live a dream". A intresting link on his personality is here.

Religious Intolerancy

"God does not speak; it does not mean anyone can do anything in the name of religion."
This line just shake me from a long sleep of religious attachment. Religion is a personal thing rather than group subject.

Acc. to wiki- 'A religion is a set of common beliefs and practices generally held by a group of people, often codified as prayer, ritual, and religious law.'

I differ from this statement from the point of view of common beliefs of group of people. Each people can have different religion and faith in the same society. A religion must be tolerant enough not sticking to a yardstick principle. Tolerance is lacking in religion in terms of tradition but intolerant enough in raising war with each other.

Now after so much blood is shed in the name of religious conflict, non of the religion holds true for a human being. When universal compassion and human emotions does not matter to man in front of materialistic world, no religion is capable enough take that place.

Thinking Big

Time of placement in ITBHU has come for our batch. I am preparing for it with writing blog instead of studying any computer language. But looking at the plight of fellow students give me more pain than enjoyment at placement scenario. Most people (70%) do not have any idea about company and nature of work. They are having short term vision about money. Money prevails over profile. But choosing good job at college will help to save some years in longer run. I want to give real suggestion for dreamers.

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.If you aspire to the highest place, it is no disgrace to stop at the second, or even the third, place."

Daydreaming is good till it becomes a nightmare.
Aspiration and cool head will help you in long run business as life. Other skills and results are the secondary things in the life. Marching ahead to future is not just time passing by, but a journey of life going on with caravan of emotions.

Supplement is Compliment

This semester started with the supplementary examination. I have got arrears in MODS (mechanics of deformable solid) and Fluid Mechanics in 5th semester. It was a fatal blow for me but time is great healer. I continued my routine work without any idea of preparation for supplementary exam in 6th semester. In the summers, I was hoping to get 1 more supplementary in DOMS but luck was on my side. I cleared 6th semester without any back paper ingenious way. Now after returning from Germany, fear and lack of preparation was on my side. I reached Varanasi on 7th night with a good feeling to meet other back loggers. I was welcomed by Hathi, arvind, naidu, srikant bhaiya, rajjo, tripathi and chandu in raghu room. It was like meeting of warriors before a long battle. No strategy of study was planned yet. Night was welcomed by watching "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End". Movie was nice and many of our fellow sleep in same room due to lack of rooms. In short hathi, rajjo, naidu, birla, tripathi & me were sleeping in same room.

It is truly said "Prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them. "

Next day,8th July: was Sunday and many of Friends were arriving with full enthusiasm. We were now in a slow process of changing hostel and allotting rooms. Whole of the day just passed by with taking energy from our body. Date of supplementary exams were still unknown.

Next day was 9th July: Rush to department had started as supplementary exams were held from 12th July. So less time,so much to do.Our struggle against the system had started for change in date of exams. But it appeared fruitless in the beginning to bargain with them. But if god & hod is in your side, who might be against you? Hence after much negotiations led by srikant bhaiya and hathi with our huge moral support, date of exams were shifted. Now they were starting from 17th July.

Hence when all of ITBHU was studying for their placement,we were studying for our careers and life. Tough days were they...

Mockery of luck was played on one of our colleague and he became failed in elective subject of energy management. He was none other than Guptajee. One more player into the ring had entered with courage to cherish this exam. Truly said by me only - Supplement is complement.

Take inspiration from famous Iqbal couplet: “Girte hain shahasavaar hii, maidaan-ee-jang men, voh tiphl kyaa gire, jo guthno ke bal chale”.
