Final Destination of Life

FOR THE READERS
I know that in this blog , I will sound paradoxical in respect to my previous blogs but I need to share this feeling with you all. I am saying so as life will never be a wonderland for anyone here. Be prepared to face some bitter truths, some unanswerable questions and never ending thoughts.


The Delhi weather is turning out to be a bloom season for the flowers. Almost everyday, people are blessed with beautiful rain droplets falling from the endless sky. Such a weather turns everything serene,pure and beautiful. When the sun rays touch the green leaves, sky gets filled with every color. Walking with bare feet on the wet grass, touching and feeling the pure water droplets and enjoying the bounty of nature, all this is a part of one's perfect life. After my another exhausting week, I finally got some time to enjoy the divine nature. I went outside and strolled towards a park nearby. As soon as I entered the park, I realised the reason that why Aristotle said
                             "In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous"

I felt as if my eyes are a part of the pearl falling from that leaf tip, my body is like the rain water resting on the carpet of grass after covering a long and exhausting journey from the sky. I felt like a monk who is meditating on Mt. Everest and is in his utmost peaceful state. The surroundings were full of different colors of nature and life. My concept about life i.e "Live Life and Enjoy till you Last" got its deserving justification after enjoying in this rain.
I suddenly got a call from my friend. She was also enjoying the weather. Two of us did a little chit chat and as soon as I was about to end the conversation, she said something which washed away all the colors around me. She mentioned that her Nani (grandmother) had brought her home made pickles.
This reminded me of my grandmother who passed away this February.

                                                                             *****

It was the winter time in Delhi,India. The day started in a normal manner but no one had even the slightest idea that it would turn out to be the worst winter morning for us. I was having a gala time with my family when the phone rang. My mother picked up the call and everything changed around me.
"Heart Attack!!"
She  exclaimed this in some pain and mostly surprise. All of stopped at our places and minds diverted off the track and towards the phone call. As soon as she cut the call, she broke into tears. My dad rushed towards her and gave her a little comfort in his arms during the most painful time. He asked with trembling voice
"what happened?"
My Mother told her that my Nani (grandmother) suffered from a severe heart attack last night.
Everything went black for me. I felt as if someone took away one of my reasons to stay alive. Since my childhood, I had an unspoken bond of love with my grandmother. This bond was so strong that I loved her more than my own mother. Whenever we visited her, I used to stay with her for most the time. I enjoyed helping her with kitchen chores,going to the local market with her and the time when we talked a lot i.e the morning walk. I quickly revived myself from the nostalgic memories.
We quickly packed our bags and were ready to leave for the hospital.
I don't know why it happened to me but before we left, my dad got a call from my tayaji( brother of my dad). He said that leave Rupish at our place as my Nani's condition is stable now. My dad left me at his place and rest(Mum,pa and my sister) left for the 4 and a half hours long journey.

Till date I curse myself that I agreed with this decision.
I was really very worried all the time. I was not in a situation to eat,think or say anything. I felt as if I am trapped in a small box. My hands are tied and I am dying slowly due to asphyxia.
After this point, story splits into 2 halves

1. Story according to Me
2. Actual Story 

My parents reached the hospital. They called me up and told me that Nani is still under danger and nothing can be said. It was like a disaster for me. Expressing those feelings in words is impossible.
Somehow, I managed to sleep for that night. Next morning, I called my dad and asked the current status. He informed me that She is in a better situation now. Although it provided a bit of relief to my restless soul but I was still very upset, actually more than "just upset". I felt like visiting the most sacred place I knew around, Jhandewali Mata Ka Mandir(a holy temple of Goddess Jhandewalan).
I took the metro and reached my destination after an hour. I just burst into tears as I felt as if my grandmother has left me alone.
Somehow the never ending day passed and the next day, my father told me that she is safe and they are coming back for a week or two.
I was anxiously waiting for my parents. As soon as they reached the home, they informed me that my Grandmother passed away.

My heart is bleeding as I am typing this blog. But somehow I will try to complete it as I started this with a question in mind and I want to put it forward to all my dear readers.
Actual Story was my parents got the worst news on their way and since then they cried their eyes out.
The cremation was done as per Hindu Rituals.
I never got to see her and won't even get this chance ahead.

                                                                               *****
One word "Grandmother" took me 5 months back in time. All the colors of my life faded away. After 5months, I emerged little stronger but with an unbearable loss.
After this, I ended the call with my friend and I got a question in my mind.
What life is all about?
Is it just meant to create relationships with other so that hundreds cry when you die? Or is it just meant to face all the problems thinking that one day you will live for your own self and before that day comes, you get tranquility of white? Or is it meant to carry so many responsibilities on your shoulder and then suddenly leaving all of them to sleep forever?
Such thoughts overshadow the colors of "happy living".

Who is this "Mr. God"?

In my last blog, I expressed my whole "Mind at the Next Level Theory" and in the end,I mentioned that this situation helped me to re-connect with my God.
But before I express my views on this complex and very sensitive topic , I want all my readers to ask a few questions from your inner self.

• Do you believe in God?
• If yes/no, what made you take that decision?
• If Yes, then how can you believe in something that can't be seen?
• If No, then just think of the first words that come out of your mouth when you see something terrible? (Are they something like,"Oh Jesus" or "Holy Christ"?)

 In my early life( I just 19, but even I had an "early life" :-P ), I was an orthodox believer of God. In everything good, I used to credit God's presence and in everything bad, I used to think that maybe god has something better hidden in his chest for me.
I clearly remember an incident which made my belief more concrete.
About 2 years back, I was preparing for medicine. One day, I lost a very important note book. It had all my notes and important questions. I was very tensed. My mum checked every possible and impossible place. But everything was in vein. 2-3 days passed but every effort was futile. Next morning, while I was on my way to school, I passed by my society temple. I prayed to god that please turn the impossible task into possible. Believe me or not but when I returned from my school, I saw the register lying over the bed.
                                                                             *****
Time passed and my exam time arrived. I was well prepared for medical exam. Two years of my end less efforts were to be tested in the next 3 hours. I was apprehensive about the exam but on the same side I was raring  to give my best shot. Luckily or unluckily,everything went good for me.

Result time was near. I was very anxious to see that where my future is destined. But fortunately or unfortunately, I lost everything in that battle.
All my dreams shattered and so did my belief in god.
" When you lose something big, you lose many big things in a go"

                                                                            *****
PRESENT DAY/AFTER TWO YEARS
Yesterday's incident created a different atmosphere around me. It made me feel that whatever we have, whatever we do and whatever happens, everything is connected with each other.
If I would have got an admission in medico, I may have been leading a terrible life. A life where my actual self could have died long ago.
But today, I live a healthy and most importantly a HAPPY LIFE. I do whatever I feel like doing. Multiple things like Guitar, Dance, Karate, Day out with friends etc have returned to my life. I left all these things to get into a medical college. I changed myself. Now I feel more confident, more lively and more happy. And I guess, this is what actually life is.
"Live every moment like its your last moment alive"



Definition of God has changed in my dictionary. Earlier, I searched god in some idol or some prayer. But now, I found out that
God is in every person, in everything.
I strongly feel that there is some super natural force, that is circulating the positive energy all around us.
Don't you think that the negative energy is way more than the positive energy in the people around? Then from where do we get the
HOPE TO LIVE IN EVERY ODD SITUATION!!!
Time to think some more....

Dad- My Super Hero

Drove 18.7kms to reach the Service Tax Office in afternoon. Parked the car in parking of the office and went inside with my dad. Entered the restricted section of the office, THE SALES TAX BAR ASSOCIATION. My Dad is an advocate and visits these offices frequently. Got a seat next to him. A peon came and offered us water. I Quenched my thirst and just had a look all around. I don't know what happened to me but I just felt like giving PA A TIGHT HUG!!!
I had many emotions in my heart which were ready to burst out. Somehow, I managed to control myself. Complete life history flashed in my mind and was lost in some other world.
                                                                            *****
Superman and Batman are some of the most renowned heroes of the comic world. While in reel-life, Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan, Al Pacino and Gary Cooper are famous.
In real life, only one super hero is known- A Father.

Heroes in films and comics are always picturised as someone with super-natural powers, who can fight with every problem and win. In real life, Father is one who doesn't possess any super-power but has the capability and strength to get into any trouble and save his child from it, not caring about himself.
This was a little emotional part. But actually,

• How to define "DAD"?

When doctor tells a woman that she is pregnant, then she is the only person responsible for protecting her child till the child is not born and is inside her womb. Delivery is termed as the most painful process in which a human being survives. So, her affection is unquestionable and ineffable.

After the birth of the child, the responsibility of "protection" shifts to a newly introduced character for the child, FATHER. The moment he takes his child in hands, his world comes to a stand still. He forgets all his problems with a mere touch of the child. The moment he brings the child close to his chest, heart beats stops for some time to protect the child even from the slight vibration of his heart.
That's how I can define a Father.
As the child grows, he/she starts to crawl on the floor. The transition from crawling to the baby-steps is due to a father. He would always take the finger of the child in his hand and try to make him walk. He will always hold the child from sides to protect him from falling down.

A baby boy will play his first ball and baby girl will paddle her first bicycle in presence of her Father. Baby Boy would grow up to become a friend and a support to his Father and Baby Girl would become an emotional and mental strength of him.
For a boy, his dad is an Inspiration. He is like someone with a Towering Personality who will be always behind him whenever he needs him. Be it any thing, his dad would understand. After entering teen age, Father is more like a Friend to him. One with whom he can play chess, Carom Board, T.V Video Games. One with whom he will sit for hours and repair various electronic gadgets at home. One with whom he can sit and watch news just because his dad wants to see what is going on.
And for a Daughter, dad is someone whom she can trust blindly. A son can still fight with his dad but a daughter would always do whatever her Father would ask her to do. Dad is her inner power. She can fight with the world if her dad is behind her. Her dad's respect is everything for her. Without his support, she feels herself to be lonely and fragile as he is the support that can hold her together.
As they mature-

a boy always has this thing in his mind that Only Friend Who Will Never Hurt Him is HIS DAD and a girl realizes that that Her Dad Is The Only Guy Who Will Never Break Her Heart and Will Think Best For Her.

                                                                        *****
Suddenly my father shook me and asked, "U slept Beta?"
My answer was,"Just woke up Dad".
Probably he didn't understand why I said so but I meant what I said to him.
Maybe he is not the perfect man, maybe he possesses thousands of flaws. But for me he is
MY DAD- MY ONLY SUPER HERO!!!

Life in DU

Got up with a lazy face,went to the washroom to freshen up, slept on the pot to think what is going deep down or i should say WHILE thinking myself as a super hero. Finally, i won over all the obstacles. Credit goes to my hard work and constant motivational speeches( just a positive form of saying admonitions) from my parents. After winning, I celebrated my victory with a glass milk(which i hate) and newspaper.

Opened the newspaper and saw Kareena Kapoor dancing, Megan Fox running and Katrina Kaif drinking (aam panna). Guys possess special set of eyes. Only women are seen in one look,that too hot ones. To notice guys, we need to work harder. In between my angels, I saw some information of different colleges of DU.
I read few points. After 15 minutes i thought, " What a crap is this man!! There is nothing about canteen masti, running out of the class when teacher is writing, fighting with a gang if they have messed with your gang member. Just then I went to my room and wrote what I will tell the freshers about DU.
First of all, 5 DONTs. Because, its DU my friend,not the school. Its more important to learn DONTS first. If you don't agree, then have a look-


1) First and most the important one, Never ever ever talk to a friend of yours on phone while with a senior. If you do so, then at least don't ever tell your friend that the senior is a guy (make him jealous by describing some sexy female otherwise he will laugh at your bad luck),is bossy and is dragging you all the way to CP for his work. I know what will happen next and I want each of you to experience it. Why should I ruin the excitement...
2) Never laugh at any one in the college even if he/she is looking like a jackass. Later, he or she can introduce himself/herself as your teacher. Then, you will have a high level of rebuke in front of your class.

3) Never think that you have links and you are the boss. The Other person may have enough links to scare off yours. It can be very dangerous for your body, road and people walking on the road.
4) Never make a girlfriend in your class. Even try to avoid same college. This will give you the freedom to look for other beauties when she is not around. If you don't agree then listen to a few songs of a Bollywood movie, "Pyaar Ka Panchnama". Guys would understand this point.

CAUTION- Not following the above point can make your cheeks turn red and hot (hot is not something good here).
5) Never try to run out of the class while a teacher is writing. You are not KKKKrish, foot steps make sound. Common sense is not that common guys. Teacher can give you one of the biggest punishments for this offense.
Make you sit in the front row (Can't forget that entire week, urrrrrggggghhhhh).
Now few things that you should DU in the college. After all, college life is to enjoy.
DOs

1. Try to do all the DONTs. So that you can learn the importance of my golden words.
2. For all the dudes, do sneak into GCR (Girls Common Room) when no one is around and inside. There are comfortable sofas and mirrors all around.
3. For all the girls, do make a boyfriend. He would be your cashier and bodyguard.
4. Do eat Maggie and drink coffee near Law Faculty in winters. The atmosphere around, chilling weather and friends. All are at their top most level. 
5. Call Kamla Nagar as KNax and Vijay Nagar as VNax. It sounds cool as well as a mark to distinguish a DU student from the crowd.

This is what a DUait should know before entering the Restricted Zone where nothing is restricted.

Life- A definition of its own

L- Live

I- It with

F- Full

E- Energy

This is what life is all about.

Every day can seem similar or different. Every second of life can be monotonous or adventurous.Every thing can be dull or colorful.

Why this thought of life came into my mind?
All this started few days back when I finished my semester exams. During exam time, I had an aim in life. It was to study and perform better in exams. I had 8 exams in mere 10 days. Every one said its impossible. Few said that its tough to even imagine. But my view was totally different. I was excited and all set for the coming fight. As the battle began, my energy levels doubled. 

I gave all my exams with high spirits and low sleeping hours. Even such tough conditions gave me more strength and zeal to fight harder. But this happiness was short lived or can say "my happy times" were approaching.

 As the exams ended, I made plans to enjoy every day to the max limit. Two days later, I was all exhausted and bored. 

Life looked to me as a question mark. My inner energy asked me to invest it somewhere. But I had no directions, no aim and no less treaded way to enjoy. Then I realized something about life.

The more we struggle and enjoy, better the life we live.

 

Its very important to live every aspect of live to its limit. Troubled conditions make us more tough and give birth to desire for easy track. When we reach this track after a lot of struggle, we achieve an inner pleasure. This pleasure is beyond imaginable limits of human mind.

 

 

Energy and zeal to do something past possible limits makes life liveable. Life can be enjoyed to its utmost level by using your inner strength in positive and controlled way.

But practically speaking, life is not a wonderland ride. Its never so easy.

Maybe life will hurt you back in this fight. Maybe it will hit you directly on to your face. Maybe it makes you feel defeated.

But remember my friends, patience and power can drill a way out of any Himalaya of troubles. After every problem, there is a solution. After every night, there is a morning sun shine. After every pain, there is a medicine. Never ever leave "Life vs I" match unfinished. Hit it back so hard that you cross all the barriers of life and come out as a WINNER.

 

With this brimming energy, you will never be afraid of anything new in life and will always say

BRING IT ON BABY!!!

 

 

 

 

Switch on your life melody, go out of your secure place and run in the wild.
