It took me over 30 years to realize that my body needs some care. I meant knowing myself, my limits, and what and how everything affects my body. Most of us relate the body with looks, muscles, and abs. We tend to treat the brain like a less loved organ without knowing that it consumes …

limit
What is our limit, be it taking pain or seeking for our goal? What does it take to become successful? Can we feed a horse if he is not thirsty? Does limit mostly manifest of our mind? We have created an artificial wall and scared of getting hurt crossing it? Watching Hollywood, listening, or reading …
supreme
Why do we listen and follow sages, gods, or gurus? How do we know their teachings are supreme? I have been thinking about it for some time. I am not saying there is a fault with their knowledge. But how much can I take it? The beliefs, dogmas, and superiority of one do not go …
open
We have control over our opinions. The way we see the world around us. We paint our life with the paintbrush of our thoughts and action. I had a call last day and, my friend/elder brother, who advised me to see the positive side of things. Every human on this planet has something positive. We …
who
Who is going to stand by you? Are we all not alone in our little world? Thoughts, imagination, dreams all are ours. Who owns responsibility? I have been seeing a trend where people don’t want to change, move on, or take steps ahead. Some are victims of their past, live by the memories, and sometimes …
dependent
Why do we have to be dependent on alcohol, drugs, smoking, or a guru? Is it because we are scared to accept and live our lives in real sense? We have read or heard that the consumption of foreign substances will make us better? I feel we are scared of living as we are. Why …
purpose
What keeps us moving? What makes our life unique? What keeps us moving against all the odds, failures? The more and more I read about the life of successful people or those who left their mark on society. It makes me realize they had a purpose: Martin Luther King to Mahatma Gandhi to Nelson Mandela …
reunions
Reunions result in bringing memories of the past. Be it with school friends or colleagues. There has never been a dull moment. Sometimes it makes me wonder about our innocence at others about our foolishness, bravery. Reunions are bittersweet. The conversation about your crushes, their present life. The sports teacher and being caned bunking morning …
utopia
Most of us living in the metro are part of a bubble. We are part of a parallel universe. It is like living in a utopia: capitalism, consumerism, and modernity is the virtue and elements like cars, housing society, mobile fostering the identity. I see people complaining about electricity failure or water not coming for …
Wrong
Every opportunity comes with success and failures. Society tells us about look for positives and ignore negatives. Over the last few years, I have read Charlie Munger many times, and thinking in inversion has been a great mental model for me. I have been trying my best to add it as part of my decision …
