विश्वास

आज सकाळी उठलो
पाण्याचा नळ चालू केला आणि नळातून पाणी आलं
विश्वास होता पाणी असणार नळाला

मग फ्रीज उघडला दुध बाहेर काढलं चहा बनवण्यासाठी
विश्वास होता फ्रीज/इलेक्ट्रिसिटी रात्र भर चालू राहील आणि दुधाला नासवून देणार नाही

मग स्टोव चालू केला
विश्वास होता तो गरम होईल आणि चहा बनवायला मदत करेल

किती सहज या गोष्टी आपण गृहीत धरतो नाही
रात्री झोपताना विश्वास असतो उद्या सकाळ होईल सूर्य उगवेल म्हणून शांत झोपू शकतो
कोणीही कितीही म्हणल कि जगबुडी होणार आहे २०१२ ला तरीही ३० वर्षांनंतर फायदा होईल असा पेन्शन 
प्लान आपण घेतो

पण आपण नक्की कोणावर विश्वास ठेवत असतो
कोणाच्या बोलण्यावर
स्वतःवर
का आपल्या विस्वास ठेवण्याचा ताकदीवर
आपण एखाद्या गोष्टीवर विश्वास ठेवतो ती गृहीत धरतो कारण आपण त्या शिवाय जगू शकत नाही

आपण आपल्या मनाला समजावत असतो कि सगळं ठीक आहे काही काळजी करायची गरज नाही
पण खरच का आपण इतकं निश्चितपणे सांगू शकतो का
थोडक्यात आपणआपल्या मनाला फसवत असतो पण त्या फसवाण्यावर आपण विश्वास ठेवत असतो

एकूण सांगायचं तर
आपण आपल्या विश्वास ठेवण्यावर विश्वास ठेवतो
आपल्या फसवाण्यावर विश्वास ठेवतो
किंवा सोप्या शब्दात सांगायचं तर
आपण विश्वासावर विश्वास ठेवतो

Road to destination... live it

 
I received this forwarded mail and found its thoughts to be one sided. So sharing it along with a try to make it complete

Here is the mail


A boat docked in a tiny Goan village. A Tourist from Mumbai, a MBA guy, complimented the Goan fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.
"Not very long," answered the fisherman.


"But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the MBA guy .


The Goan fisherman explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.


The MBA guy asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"


"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends, play guitar, sing a few songs....I have a full life."


The MBA guy interrupted, "I have an MBA from IIM-A, and I can help you!
You should start by fishing longer everyday. You can then sell the extra
fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat."


"And after that?" asked the Goan.


"With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second
one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers.
Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can then negotiate
directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You
can then leave this little village and move to Panjim, or even Mumbai. From
there you can direct your huge new enterprise."


"How long would that take?" asked the Goan.


"Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years," replied the MBA guy .


"And after that?"


"Afterwards? Well my Friend, That's when it gets really interesting,"
chuckled the MBA guy , "When your business gets really big, you can start
selling stocks and make millions!"


"Millions? Really? And after that?" asked the Goan.


"After that you'll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the
coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a siesta
with your wife and spend your evenings doing what you like with your
buddies."


"With all due respect sir, but that's exactly what I am doing now. So
what's the point wasting 25 years?" asked the Goan.



This is where the mail ended
But I felt what could have the MBA guy  answered
So lets hear it too                


The MBA guy said
Its not about resting in a village or spending 'free' evenings that matter at end of life. You can do it at any time although. Its the way you live your life. Its the road and not the destination that matters, because once the destination is reached there is no road to walk on. And this is the most stagnant area of life. So then you will ask should I never reach the destination. The answer is no. Do reach the destination, say yes I did it, enjoy it for a while and then set your next destination. The moment you will stop doing that, you will lose the reason to live

This works for me. Hope you will enjoy it too

ajun kahi charolya

दूर गेल्या शिवाय
जवळ येता येत नाही
प्रेमात पडल्या शिवाय
वेडं होता येत नाही


वयात आल्यावर प्रेम कवितांशिवाय
दुसरा काही सुचत नाही
माणसात आल्यावर त्या कवितांवर
हसण्याशिवाय दुसरा काही उरत नाही


जग धावत असले तरी
मला धावण्यात रस नाही
चालत सुद्धा जिंकता येत असताना
धावण्याची मला हौस नाही

देवाची इच्छा असेल तर
माणूस उचलला जायला वेळ लागत नाही
पण यमाची इच्छा नसेल तर
साधं मरण सुद्धा गवसत नाही

तुझ्यासोबत...तुझ्यासोबतीने.........

तुला एकट सोडून
मी कधी जाणार नाही
कितीही पावसाच्या सारी पडल्या तरी
दवबिंदूला हरवू देणार नाही

पुढे जाताना
मागे वळून बघणार नाही
पण तुला बरोबर घेतल्या शिवाय
पुढे पाऊल टाकणार नाही

पुढच्या जन्मासाठी पुण्य कमावण्यात
या जन्मी वेळ घालवणार नाही
"चार दिनो कि जिंदगी" मध्ये
कुठलाही थेंब एकटा पिणार नाही

मारण्याची वेळ आलीच
तर एकट तुला सोडणार नाही
कारण आपण वेगळं झालो तर
आपल्या अस्तित्वालाच अर्थ उरणार नाही

- आशिष शेवाळे


ही कविता पहिल्यांदा वाचताना प्रियकर-प्रेयसीच्या प्रेमाची वाटते
पण जर हीच कविता माझ्या जगण्याने, life ने, माझ्यासाठी लिहिली आहे असे समजून वाचली तर नवीन अर्थ समोर येईल

Life, How to live… decision is yours

When people talk about life they try to get philosophical because they feel that’s the only way to understand the life. But they forget one thing, no one is interested in understanding what’s life but everyone is interested in how to live it

So without getting philosophical, as its IPL season, let me write in cricket way

Lets say life, of the world as a whole, is a cricket match, maybe a twenty 20, then we all are the part of this match

Now when there is a cricket match, different components of it would have to be considered like from the players, audience, match managers, media, camera-man to even person selling cold drinks to audience.

Everyone here does his/her job for only one thing to survive.

No one can comment on which job is better as everyone is in a job. So, all should be considered equal. But we don’t accept it, isn’t it. A person in audience believes hat he’s better than person selling cold drinks while a player believe that he’s better than person sitting in audience chair. Everyone’s life is exciting and new. Let’s talk about player here.

When a player comes on the playground it’s like his one time chance to prove himself that whatever he has practiced all these years isn’t waste. Even we in life get such rare moments to prove ourselves.

Now our player, Mr. A is on strike and is going to face the bowler. He doesn’t know what type of ball, a short-pitch, full toss or even a beamer, he will have to face. Whatever it is he has to play it. Even we in our life seldom know what we are going to face the very next moment so cannot make ourselves always ready. It’s always the skill at last minute, the skill which we have gained through practice for the whole life and here is the time to use it.

Now there will be two results when Mr. A faces the bowl. Either he plays it, maybe hit a six, or he gets out, maybe clean bowled. If he hits a six, audience will give a huge round of applause. If he is out audience will wait for next man to come on strike.

The truth to be understood, either way match doesn’t ends when player is out of match, only his place is taken by somebody else.

The match goes on till eternity

The only thing that we can do is give our best and live, not survive, life fully considering this is the last moment of our life and we won’t get this chance again.

माझ्या काही चारोळ्या

जमत नाही आता तुझ्यावीण जगणं
डोळ्यांना तुला बघण्यापासून तरसवण
मनातल्या इच्छांना घालता येत कुंपण
पण कसं शक्य आहे प्रेमाच्या सागराला आवरणं


माझ्या मनात जेव्हा पाखरू बनून तू उडतेस
माझ्या मनातल्या प्रत्येक फुलाला कसा तुझा सुगंध देतेस

तुला बघत असताना भान माझे हरपून जाते
तुझी कळी खुललेली पाहून जग माझे फुलून जाते


आठवण तुझी आली की रोमांच अंगी फुलतात
श्वास तुझा स्मरतो अन डोळ्यात आठवणी दाटतात

What do we see


We can see length, breadth and height i.e. we can see, feel, think of, lie in three dimensions.


But is it the only thing we do?


Can’t we see other than this?


Can’t we imagine world other than this?

What we see is length and breadth of the object. So, we are made up for 3D. But can we imagine world in 2D?


World in 2D will be something which does not have one of the three above mentioned dimensions.


Let’s see which we can cut out.

Imagine I have a picture in which there is a mountain in background, a tree just backside of a man standing just ahead of man.


So, I have to cut one of the dimensions what if I cut height? Then all things will be a point from front and we can’t recognize or know from front? So, skip this dimension.

What if we cut length? Then all the things will be a straight line? So again skip it.


So, can we cut breadth i.e. the feeling of near and far? If we do that, then just for time being, we change our place (view point) to any other side, we will see just a line. And from front………just a plane.


In this plane, we will see that the man is standing, on the same place dog is standing, on the same place tree is there and on the same place mountain is also there………also with their original height and breadth.


Huh! Hard to imagine.

But this is only a picture………


What about whole world just in one screen………Impossible.


So, we can see or feel only three dimensions.


But is that we really do?
<!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

Let’s go to geometry. Imagine a cube with length = L, Breadth = B and Height = H. So, we can see it and feel it.


Assume that there’s a line joining origin O (0, 0, 0) to A (L, B, H). This will be a slant line in all 3 dimensions and we can feel it.


Now, imagine we are standing on plane of L * H i.e. shaded plane. What we can see is a line joining points B and A (not O and A).


Imagine, we are standing on plane on plane L * B i.e. dotted plane. Then we can see line is joining points O and C (not O and A).


Why this happens??? This is because when we stand in one of the dimensions, we cannot feel it.


Can this be applied to what we are seeing right now? This will mean that as we are standing in one dimension, we can’t feel it but we can see other 3 dimensions.


Then what is the dimension we are standing at? It’s, of course, TIME. Let’s take an example for proving this.


If we try to see revolution of earth around sun then it wouldn’t be oval as time can’t come back i.e. the line drawn in time dimension can’t reverse its direction. Then earth will “REVOLVE” in a straight line. we ing in one dimension aree are seeing right now? one of the dimensions, we cannot feel it.



Can anyone imagine it???


Thus, as long as we are studying in time’s plane, we are happy. The moment we step out, can’t say how will we see our previous frame of reference and what will be our frame of reference at that time?


Let’s make things more complicated. Great scientist Mr. Albert Einstein has discovered 13 dimensions.


Then as we see only 3, are we simultaneously stepping on remaining 10 dimensions……… and how are we doing that???


Atleast I don’t know………

Money for cricket or arrogance

England’s leading businessman along with famous ex-cricketer has announced for a Twenty-Twenty match whose winner team will get one crore pounds (84 crore rupees) between England and West-Indies.

The fact that cricket is attracting good amount of money is good news in the sports and entertainment industry. But the money offered is only for cricket love or there is different side to it.

The entry of the British businessman in helicopter along with the box of money in cash in press conference suggests that this not only cricket. Years together English people are known for their arrogance. The act again speaks their arrogance.

Why did Britain feel for so much money to be given to cricket now when IPL proved success? The answer is simple. But is that the only thing that matters.

When such news comes we Indians feel like Britain is much better than India and we are living in a very pitiable condition. Many of the leading newspapers and news channel made it big news which the Britain wanted.

In Indian Premier League every sponsor has invested average 400 crore of rupees in each team which sums up to be 3200 crore of rupees only in the team investment. The rest of numbers are better to tell that India has a tremendous amount of money. The Forbes list of Richest people in world has almost five Indians.

People of India still feel that there are countries that are better than us. Yes there are some but if we do not consider ourselves best how others will see us as best. In a local Marathi newspaper of Pune, Mr. Sunil Gavaskar wrote an article on this news which had a title saying

This is the reason English people ruled the world for 150 years.

We Indians have got independence 61 years ago. England could rule us for 150 years is a shameful and not a proud act.

Indians, we are the greatest and talented people in world. Feel like a winner to be one.
