She sat relaxing hearing euphonies,when her playlist played this song "Baanalli Odo Megha" from the biggest hit "America America" by Nagathalli Chandrashekhar in which contrast between two parts of the globe is portrayed brilliantly in the form of contrasting dreams.With her mind almost moving along the same Contrasting Dreams as beautifully spun in the song,she started thinking what could be the true meaning as she had 100's of varying questions running all over her mind. Analysing the true meaning of this poem answered all her questions perfectly..And here it goes..
Considering clouds and hills as two independent entities, both have their own wonderful and unique features with one being just moving and the later being stationary.One cannot survive without the other.But still, be it the clouds or the hills both bestow lots and lots of Love.
The sky in which the Clouds reside can always be considered as a reflection of our thoughts which reside in our inner heart.Our inner heart always has dreams wherein each dream is woven and interwoven every now and then typically in the form of precious beads and when we achieve one dream we begin thinking about the other and this chain of beads spreads all over the sky and there lies no end to this chain of dreams, wherein every one dreams of reaching greater height which is far and far away synonymous to a small dot.They like a bird flutter their wings from one dream to other and fly away to reach that small dot leaving behind all that they have, all those loving things which love them the most.
On the Contrary, there lies a dream which has a very strong root and has dreams of achieving more and more things over the support of the strong root that has already been planted since ages.This makes their life more greener than how it was.They stay behind with all those things which love them and with their support they have a more greener life over that strong base.They always question the Clouds which reside in the sky,with one eternal question being why had you to fly like a bird to reach that dream of your's when that can be created and achieved here itself over that strong root which obviously provides them support just as the later one gets..Why why and why??
The answer and conclusion is pretty nice, true and factful wherein it clearly explains and makes us realise certain things.Even though the clouds break in the sky itself leading to rain and more rain,the rain drops have to obviously fall down to the ground(law of Gravity) as they have their place inside the mud and no where else.So this makes peace treaty between the two contrasting dreams and makes them go hand in hand as one cannot survive without the other.So it can be finally ceased that all kinds of contrasting dreams have the same end, what ever may the dream be!!
I actually have the very habit of sharing my thoughts about the year that past by everyyear on the 31st of December.So here it goes..
In the year 2011, I experienced most of the phases : downfall,rise,luck,happiness,surprises everything and everything..I can proudly tell that it was a complete year for me..
Realised how people around are, how am I to them…A stupid bunch of friends with whom I crazily hanged out and laughed to my hearts content ..
Guess that’s it…Have become a bit lazy to write more..
Getting up in the morning, I got a feeling that the temperature has reduced and mist was visible..My thought reversed back the lane behind few months back wherein I would get drenched and used to crib stating when would this season finish..Den again I wished, hope it was Summer or spring where in I could dance and rejoice and live the living to it’s optimum peak.
Man!!! I guess this is what is called as Nature. Nature is pretty “Natural” in all it’s actions. We never know when would it rain or when would it be cold or when would it be so hot that we feel like staying in cool indoors.
The case is the same with all Birds as well wherein they migrate to compatible environments and the unity in those small creatures called Ants is also seen then wherein they engage themselves in saving food for the next season.
In between all these, mind makes a sudden twist and turn wherein it asks what if these changes does not happen, what if there is no change in season, what if birds do not migrate, what if ants do not save food at all…??And this what if question goes on and on.
And the answer to this is that, a supernatural power always exists behind all these changes and it occurs according to the will and wish of that power. If that would not have existed, and there would have been no changes at all, then life would have been as boring as it has to be.
And this is the Beauty of Nature continues, which is crazily admirable….
The music queen or better known as Lata Mangeshkar of South India Smt.KS. Chitra made her debute to Hindi Music Industry with this song which is from the movie LOVE, which became the greatest of the greatest hits of all times and this euphony is hummed even today..The only secret behind such a wondrous song is the Raaga Yamun Kalyani..
There are many many songs sung with this raaga, and it is the Music director's favouriteas well in the past , today and in day's to come. It is for sure that the song becomes a great hit if the tune of the song is made in this Raaga.
"Mungaru maleye, yenu ninna halnigala Leele,Ninna mugila saale, dhareya korala premada maale","Nee AmruthaDhare" , "Tunturu Alli neera hadu" and the list crazily goes on when it comes to movies which have songs of Yamun Kalyani Raaga.
"Krishna Nee Begane Baaro" and "Alaypayuthe Kanna" are the masterpieces proving to be the a best examples of this Raaga since time immemorial.
The Raaga Yamun Kalyani adds melody to whatever the lyrics is..It is simply superb,a treat to the ears of any human being and this I believe it has the ability to drag anyone towards music!!!!
Lazing on a chair on an afternoon, she saw a Butterfly which was flying all over the garden. It was a very cute multicoloured one with big wings and the wings were flipping every now and then.
She saw it search for a flowering plant and then when it found one it sat on the plant sucking it's nectar.Once it suck the nectar of this plant, it went in search of another plant and this continued.Observing this she found a simily between the Multicoloured Butterfly and herself or rather humanbeings..
Just as the butterfly sucks the nectar of a flower and then fly away in search of another plant, so are the Humanbeings. Once they attain what they actually want, they crave and move towards another one.Here there is Emphasis on the word “Once again” wherein it is a continual process.It's not just the word satisfaction, but something more.Something which can be reached, something which can be obtained and that can make life more beautiful than what it is at the moment.Ultimately everything happens in search of happiness.This search for Happiness continues and continues as it is the only sole source of Humanbeings existance.
Poet Sri.GopalKrishnaAdiga in one of his greatest composition states the same." Iruvudellava bittu
August 15th 1947 is etched permanently in the minds and hearts of every Indian as it was the day India gained Independence from the British rule which spawned for over a century. This is the day which is marked red in the Indian as well as the world history. It’s been 64 yrs since India became free from British rule and since then students are taught about the struggle which the freedom fighters under went to make India free from British rule and make it a democratic country.
On the day of Independence, National flag is hoisted and national anthem is sung with pride and honor and sweets distributed among the masses and few patriotic songs are sung with all euphony and speeches are made in all honour of the souls which strived and struggled for the Indian Independence. The same routinue is being followed since 64yrs and would continue in years to come.
I am not being very sarcastic about this as well. With due respect the tradition that is being followed since ages,what irks me the most is that, when we think of the existing scenarios of today, I don’t think Independence has done much to our country. It would have been better if we would be ruled by a super power than being ruled by these selfish idiosyncratic politicians who see only personal gains in whatever they do, rather than working towards the development of the country and making it the best place in all aspects.
Life is different than it was 64 yrs ago. A whole new generation is in picture. New ideas, new inventions, new discoveries..Oops!!Hang on…Are we basically doing it??Say one in 1 lakh would be doing it with great difficulty, with stipulated resources. It was when Britishers ruled India that Postal system and railways was introduced and this is used till now. This can be considered as a boon to Indians as it would have taken ages for Indians to implement the same if it was not introduced then with the political scenarios out there.The best example being the implementation of metro in Bangalore.
Nothing is as definite as it has to be. All the skilled lot population of the country prefer to stay outside India as it provides better platform for their inventions and discoveries as India would not have given them the required encouragement and support. Many Indians have outshined else where. Other places attract skilled Indians at very easily with the dollar rate being more when compared to that of a rupee, with no corruption and Injustice shown and real encouragement shown to people who want to excel in their field of Interest.
Yeah,some people may argue with my thought stating India requires some time to stand up on it’s own, as it has a very big heart of giving shelter to a number of people of numerous caste and creed. As well as people can also tell something about the ancient times as Indian has a history of thousands of years, it’s cultural heritage and what not. Everyone does understand all these and are proud of the same .But then how long is the biggest question. How long can you just accept all these and then wait and wait for the day there would be a progress which has not happened since 64 years.
There were days when downtrodden people were given proper privelages, reservations and rights, but then what’s the status if the same today. They used all those previlages and have progressed in life and have reached greater heights. They are trying to use the same kind of reservation for their younger generations as well which is completely incorrect. Reservations were given to people to come up, and when they have attained the same why should it be used again. This concept is completely out of bounds and logic and when the good people of India try to bring a new rule regarding the same there would be protests form them who are supposed to be right up there and have reached greater heights. Theyshould not forget that once when the downtrodden people needed support, voice was raised and they got it.They should respect it and accept and thank people for the support and now understand the present scenario and gel along with it.
Coming to our so called politicians, they gain power by giving money, staying in power make money and give money when their power is about to be snatched by someone else and this has been going on since 64 yrs.There is something called as TDS(tax deducted at source) and also tax over the commodities we buy.We pay taxes for what ever we do and still it is not being used properly. This is either used by the so called politicians for their personal gains or the higher rank officials. This is how it is today.
Coming to the so called security , guess India is ranked as one of those countries which is not a very secure place to stay. Underworld don’s backed by the most powerful people of the country rule. They don’t mind taking away innocent lives. To support and hide the mistakes of the so called Underworld don’s the government sees to it that if a big mishap happens, they take it very easily and blame the terrorists rather than their own support groups who would have done it. Terriorism is no exception again. These terrorists are so Idiosyncraticfanatical that they don’t realize the value of innocent lives and they take one, when asked why..They tell Jihad and what not..
In such scenarios how would India grow. There is no room left wide open to state that India would be a developed country nor is there any sliver lining that would state that India will be developed one day.
Was watching this movie called “Nayak” ,starring Anil Kapoor in the lead role,who stands againstall these corrupt politicians and builds the nation, a dream nation, a nation where everyone craves and loves to live. Why cant we derive good things from that and drive out all the so called “Political forces” that is hindering the nations growthtowards development and prosperity. Why cant we have a system of 2 ministers for each portfolio and why cant IAS and IPS officers rule us than the so called uneducated corrupt politicians. By this guess we can avoid all these so called 2G,CWG,Mining scams and drive the nation towards achievements and progress rather than getting the nation’s name as well as progress hindered so that the tax we pay is made used effectively and efficiently.
Hence in conclusion…I would like to give my honest opinion..With all the current state of affairs happening, the nation and the well educated youth need to raise their voice and get into politics and rule the country rather than these inefficient politicians and make use of the Independence that our great freedom fighters gained with lot of struggle and perseverance so that the emergingthought of “The days were better pre-independence can be made untrue” so that right utilization of Independence and Independent India can happen and nation can be called as “Developed” rather than being still “Developing” as it is since 64 years.
As kids we used to adore other kids and get attracted to them and played with them, and as we grew up we used to get attracted to people who shared similar ideas and used to spend more time with them..There would be few out of the lot who carved a niche for themselves in our heart and mind that they remain with us in all our happiness and sorrows, in times of difficulties and in easy times, wipe our tears and hug us when in distress,kick us when we reach the heights of stupidity,pat our back when we reach greater heights and participate and be a part of the most craziest task we do..
A big thanks to all my dearest of the dear friends who made me live my life to the fullest and who became a part of my life and hoping this friendship continues in ages to come!!!
