A True Learner.

      When I was doing my B.ed I was thinking a learner is one who learn from his or her own experiences.  I read many books related to the theory of different psychologist like Skinner, Thorndike (The Behaviourist) and the theory of Gestalt philosophers who have difference of opinions related to the theory of learning.  The behaviourist said that learning is a process of stimulus and response.  It favoured that all learning is actually based on S-R theory .  But slowly and slowly when I tried to read some more psychologists then I came to the depth of the actual learning and then I came to realize that it is not just a process rather it is a process as well as product.  And the learning which the Behaviourist are talking about is just training which is just a small part of learning.  
     During my B.ed I got a book from my college library "Think on these things".  It was written by a great philosopher of East J. Krishanamurti.  In it he said an intelligent person is one who live dangerously and a true learner is one who take initiative and do the simple things differently. One of the line of J. Krishnamurti very much inspired me i.e.

         "The aim of education is not to make students able to give answer of the questions rather the aim of education is to make them able to ask questions from the answers".

       It is what our great saints of East also said that from the questions you can get the true answer.  There is not fixed answer of any question rather there are many answers of one question.  And a true learner is one who has a courage to ask questions from his own self and starts his journey from his questions which took him toward a one answer of every kind question of the life.

IT IS GOOD

       It is really good not to have friends and it is good to have a  good friends.  How strange the word the friend is!  It means one who is our well wisher but who is our real well wisher?  The answer is we our selves.  Then who is our real friend?  Our real friend is our own inner self.  And that is the reason the great thinkers give importance to the inner capabilities of our mind and body. Whenever we are in trouble our brain release such kind of chemicals in our body which enhance our physical capabilities and then we can do the toughest task of the world.  It is just for the context of body, now lets see on the context of our mind.  The thing which seems very much subtle are very much energetic that is the reason children can't keep quiet and don't sit calmly because they have much energies.  Similarly our mind can't sit properly because it also have very much energy rather it is a power house. And it is good if mind is flexible, it is good if a child talk more and plays more because it shows his or her physical as well mental fitness.        
        During my teaching experience I meet one of an interesting person I am not mentioning his name but he is really a great philosopher, thinker and revolutionist cum teacher.  He told me one day "a child who don't talk and always keep quiet have some metal problems because from childhood students starts sharing his or her knowledge through his or her experience.  And it is good if they are talkative."

      

The learning

       The learning is like the living and the reality of this world is that we are not living that is the reason we are also not learning because learning is possible only if we can live but the question is how to live?  The reality is that we don't know how to live, because we criticize the death.  And until and unless we can't be curious to experience the death we can't live well and if we can't live well then we can't learn also.
       Indian philosophy only knows the glory of death that is the reason most of the past gurus of India appreciate the death and that is the reason they are great learner and during that time people are intellectual because they don't have fear towards death.  J. Krishanamurti also said in his book Think on these things  that an intelligent is one who live dangerously.

Krishnamurti is one the philosopher who is not a philosopher rather he knew philosophy is just a foundation that is the reason he many times said to live alone if we want to be a intelligent person.  And here he criticised the whole psychological theory of intelligence which said that an intelligent person is one who adjust in the present environment and change himself or herself according to the needs.  There are many who can say he is or he may be wrong but it is the truth that the fruit of intelligence occur only in the tree with the stem of fearlessness. But it is the million dollar question how to be fearless??????? And if any one ask me the answer of this question then I can also not be able to give the answer of this question though I am writing about it.  But I know how to transform our fear into fearlessness?  The answer is to be aware about the causes of our fears only then we can able to make ourselves fearless and only then we can be able to be intelligent otherwise we are not intelligent rather we are just a computer, it can calculate well, it can reason analyse well and it has a capacity to store information but it can't invent or discover a new way of life perhaps computers don't know how to live.  Only human beings know how to live but the question Are we actually a human beings? Think on these things. 

Ideal or idea.

        Philosophy is one the subject which I like the most and also criticised the most also because if we implement it then it will  become "the new way of life", "new way of doing some task" and if we don't implement it then it is just like making buildings in a sky which is almost impossible and very difficult. So it is good to read one philosophy and make one way so that we can achieve our destiny at last.
       When I  think about Rabindra Nath Tagore I feel a kind of joy because he is a Naturalist and an Idealist also. He knew how to live and how to celebrate the life, he knew the right way how to practise his Ideas in reality thats why he established "Shanti Nikatan" to present the Naturalist way of teaching which is also known as "Walk and talk method of teaching".  Walking is a kind of motor activity but in actual sense it is motor as well as intellectual activity.  I many times observe that whenever I run very fast then there is no thought in my mind only there is emotions which force me to run as much fast as I can and when I feel tired then there is no thought  in my mind and then I found that in actual sense our mind, body and emotions are not the three different things rather they are the same and they work together.  If we some how run beyond the capability of our body then I am sure we can achieve the state of thoughtlessness same as the Buddha achieved in meditation.  But he adopted the different way to achieve the state of thoughtlessness, he went to meditation watches his subconscious mind and detach himself from each and every kind of thoughts.  Osho also said that if we can walk as much slow as we can then we can achieve the state of thoughtlessness because when our body movement is slow down then our intellectual movement is also slow down. If we walk like a thinker then automatically we start thinking like a great thinker.  Now the question is how the thinkers walk?  They walk like as if there body is walking itself and there mind is searching something different and that is the reason most of the times great thinkers commit some kind of silly mistakes i.e they forget there own home! They forget the home of there friends and relatives because there mind is not there to see the location. My father most of time teach me many lesson in the way of "teaching through walking".  I like walking because when we walk we can critically examine our thought and then there are many counter argument comes in our mind and it also expand our thinking capabilities.  

Osho also used to say walk as much slow as you can.

The New Era.

       Every time life took a new incidents and happenings in my life and I learnt many new things which I don't think I can learn before; humanity; love; and struggle to make sure that I am in a right path or not.  There was a time when it seemed humanity is in danger these days, but now I realize that humanity can never be in danger rather it always exist in the form of compassion in human heart, though it looked we are becoming self- centred but in deep-down every wicked person also has some good values in his or her mind, what I realize today, we just need to be patient toward the will of the Almighty and it is the most difficult task.  The more I have got opportunity to observe humanity the more I realized that Indian society can be guided towards its old faith of one truth of Upnishad, Shri Guru Granth Sahib, The Koran, The Gita, and The Bible, and only in this society we can find out the people of different culture, different faith, different religion.  But still we are united toward our task and it makes us happy and we realized the importance of tolerance and acceptance.   

Game

       Life is a game, and we are just playing not it is?  I think it is.  Sometimes we feel happy, sometimes we feel sad, sometimes we saw the bright sight of the world, sometimes we saw the dark sight of the world, but we human beings are so much static, that we only saw the one side, and that is the cause of our misery. If we saw the both of the side bright and dark then we feel very much light, it is what we need to be happy and joyful.  Now the question arises how to be joyful and happy?  The answer is very easy i.e to accept your sadness, your sorrow and watch it consciously with total alertness.
       Humanity needs self-awareness and self-acceptance is the way to self awareness, and only through it the inner problem can be changed, try it, it will work.  Solution is always there but it comes in the form of problems, lot of problems, but remember solution is always the one and this is the game of this world, whosoever play it judiciously we definitely be succeeded but patience is required, keep smiling with little bit of sadness in you, it will detach you.

Just make the ghost your friend

In this present scenario, I have seen many challenges rising in front of my society.  These are because of our past mistakes.  But there is one more problem i.e. we don't have a temperament to accept our past mistakes, and it is the huge problem of our society, and still we think, feel and believe to be human beings, but I don't think so because according to me human beings are those who learn from their mistakes but we don't want to learn, it means we are not human beings including me also! 

I think about myself as a person who presents some new ideas in front of others for the solution of the problems of our society. Don't be serious, it is just what I think, rest the others can better describe and how much it works, I don't know but I know my ideas help me a lot to help and improve myself so I think it can also help others to improve themselves.

But it doesn't mean I am exaggerating my ideas and even I can't exaggerate my ideas as I know I am nothing. And it can be possible that I have some errors in my ideas also but I just want people to start using their own heads for solving their problem rather than following others' ideas.  

Throughout my life, I have seen myself as a reflection of "no" body and I am nobody. 

There was a time when I didn't know to write a single sentence in English, and it was a kind of subject which made me afraid and sometimes it seemed to be looked like a ghost.  But every time I take it as a challenge and tried to improve my English through writings and still I feel it as a subject which is a ghost for me, though now I am in a safe zone, and can convey my ideas in this language. And I can say that the ghost is under my control.

When I was in my teenage, many times it hurts me when someone didn't give any importance to my ideas and just look at my grammatical errors. But every time, I took it as a challenge and always sought to look at some new opportunities in the shadow of my own shortcomings. So the basic thing I learn that we should not afraid of criticism and condemnation.  

There are many linguists(Behaviourist) Bloomfield, and Gestalt Philosophers who also said that Language is Arbitrary, it means it can be changed through the situation to situation and the language today we are using is not correct in the context of the past period of the 15th century. 

Many of the works of Shakespeare, for instance; the play King Lear, The Hamlet and The Tempest, the language, he used is totally different from the language of our present time.   

The human mind is the greatest mystery of Nature and it has wonderful thoughts and ideas, therefore, I just want from my readers if there is anyone who has good ideas then not to be suppressed by others and never ever try to suppress their ideas only because of their language inefficiency, because Ideas are great and it can change the world and who knows, any person who is not good in communication and expression or in language has something good for society! So just start through retrospecting your own experiences.

Just retrospect your past when you were endeavouring first time to ride the cycle and your father was supporting you and it seemed you couldn't ride it but now you can drive bike also.......just start it.............start.......ye will be the master of languages. Just make the ghost your friend.

Evening Time

No - "ism"

       In our day to day life we talk about many "Isms" which are based on the philosophy of past thinkers.  There are many "Isms" and we many times out of our curiosity study about it but actually we make ourselves very much tired mentally as well as physically through reading it because all these "Isms" are meaningless and we don't need to follow any "ism".  Why I am telling this? Because these are the past thinking or experiences of the past thinkers and we are the present thinkers of our own life.  But when I am saying that we don't need to follow any ism, then it doesn't mean that we even don't mean that we even don't need to read it, rather if we neglect to read it then it means we make ourselves closed to the others view points, rather we shouldn't accept these things blindly. 
        Today, in our society we saw many people who are blind, not from eyes but from their own thinking and understanding and that is the main root cause of every sin.  Why in our society girl is not safe?  Why is our society people feel jealous from the success of other people?  The answers is very much simple. Actually we all recklessly running after success and we forget about our own real identity.  We in our heart become so much empty that we need outer sources to fill it, but alas! it can never be filled through outer sources, nor does it can be-filled, nor does it can be filled by getting success, nor even filled by material resources, rather it can only be filled through Self Realization and it is possible through Self Acceptance. But now the question arises what does Self Realization means?  Then the answer is, Self Realization means getting realization of our "true self" and how we can know about our true self?  Well I don't know?  But I know that the solution of our every kind of problem is in Self Realization and the first step of Self Realization is Self Acceptance, We just need to be aware about our own thoughts and emotions........it is very easy but difficult for those who every times observe others and don't have courage to observe their own self and believe me Self Observation is much difficult as compare to the Observation of others because we from birth have been thought to be extrovert and cheerful to show as if we are very social and friendly but it is difficult for an extrovert person to observe his self as compare to the introvert but it doesn't mean we cut ourselves from the society rather I here mean to say we should spend some time with our own self, when there is no friends, no classmates and walk lonely as if this is the last day of our life then we can understand the inner insecure thoughts of our mind and I think every one feel insecure in this world either he or she is showing his or her self very strong rather these kind of persons who show themselves as very strong in their deep down are very weak.........and they are weak because they are attach with certain isms and all over the time tired to follow that Idea which is not their own discovery rather it is borrowed and is not fit for them just like a loose cloth..........hahahahahahahahaha.........make your own ism and then leave it.  

The Language of Emotions

You know the language of Emotions,
I also know the language of Emotions,
You know what is running in my mind,
I know what is running in your mind, 
You have your own Destination, 
I have my own Destination,
Life is like a play,
In which different people are playing,
You have your own limitations,
I have my own limitations,
You have your own duties,
I have my own duties,
You have your own path,
I have my own path,
you are a day,
I am a night,
When you are there then I am not,
when I am there then you are not,
May the Silent power blessed you with all my good deeds,
May the Silent power give me all of your sorrows.

I got my self

       After a long time finally I got my self, now I realize that fear is just a psychological illness nothing more and if we can face our fear then we would come to know that it was just a emotion like a flow of river which comes and goes itself and we are the permanent observer of that river of emotions.  Two days before I was reading the book of J krishnamurti "Think on these things" in which he said if you have a courage to stand alone and you have enough intelligence to inquire and not accept any thing as any other person told you then it means you are in a process to attain the real Wisdom.  These things seems much easy but actually are much difficult but when one is able to practise it then we come to know that it was only when we don't accept our psychological illness and all the time supress it just to prove that we are very much strong rather if we leave everything and just start to accept it and explore ourselves as we are then we came to know that we are indifferent from all situations.

A book Review of the book of Biography of Vivekananda which I read during our winter break plz if any one who read it give some suggestions

The Biography of Swami Vivekananda his East and West Disciples. (Book Review)

       This Book is based on the life of Swami Vivekananda and his Struggle to know the Truth.  For me, this book is much close to my heart because I also have a deep desire to know the truth.  In this book, the main focus of the Author is to show the life Struggle of Vivekananda as well as his deep desire to know about God and His Existence.  The first very moment when I started reading it, I found a great strong perspective about this book as the Author presented every event of the life of Vivekananda very much systematically and all the aspect of writing a biography has been followed minutely.  The beginning of this book is very much appropriate and the Author has done full justice with his work by showing various aspect of His life.  The personality of Vivekananda has been described very much Excellently through showing various incidents of His lifelike showing childhood incident when it has been said by the Author that he was very much restless during his childhood and couldn’t sit for even a single moment. The characteristic of Vivekananda’s mother has been well described and also told about her religious life.  The author here in this book not only shown the Characteristic of only Vivekananda rather he also has told us about His Guru Ramakrishna Paramahansa who was a mystic man.  The meeting of Vivekananda and Ramakrishna was very much heart touching and many times it seemed as Ramakrishna knew everything about Him.  The speech of Vivekananda at Parliament of Religions in America is very deep and Author has done full justice to represent it wholeheartedly.  In one word I can say this book is very good and it showed the glory of Vivekananda’s learning capabilities and deep Understanding about Jiva and Brahma.

Divine Light

The creation is created by the creator,

We know this very well,

But who is the creator,

Where He lives and how he looks ,

All of us always tried to know this,

But we know that nobody can know this,

Because it is beyond knowing, feeling and experiencing,

When we get the answer of this question then there is no question,

Because then we are nowhere,

And when we are nowhere then who is there,

Nobody knows because there is No-Body.

Desire Vs Deeds.

       One month before our College Principal told us about desire vs deeds, and its equal relations with each other. From the first day of  college I got much inspiration from him and tried to mould myself but I have a problem that is I am very much lazy and most of the time I delay my works continuously.  No doubt I now got realize about my weaknesses but still It seems how to overcome it. I think I am not able to understand my weakness that's why I am not able to over come it.  But that day I got very much clearing in my mind that if we want to fulfil our desire then our deeds must be done skillfully. And both desire and deeds related to each other and most of the time my Father also told me this thing to me if you want to fulfil your desire and overcome it and want to live a life of contentedness then you have to do your deeds excellently.  And in Gita Lord Krishna also told us that we have to do our duty and do work for only work sack.  Guru Nanak Dev ji also preach the life of truthfulness and dutifulness   But it seems I am an Impractical person who is like a donkey full of load of books but don't have any practicability in me but I will try to change my self.  I can't promise it because promises are made to be broken so I just try....................
       Osho is the great philosopher who very much inspires me and many times when I was so much disturbed I starts reading his book Emotional Wellness which is very much inspiring book and based on human psyche.  Osho said that if you want to overcome your weakness then you have to accept your weakness as it is but sometimes a fear arise in my heart that if some one judged me wrongly.  But another time I relax my self by saying that it is not my problem.  What ever is my problem I will got the solution because I have started my journey from mistakes to learning and from learning to understanding and from understanding to Disinterestedness and I can say it that I am a true observer of my self, and I have only one quality in me that is I accept my weakness as it is.

Diwali II

     On 13 November 2012, was a day of Diwali and I was listening the sounds of crackers and bombs.  These sounds gave a kind of happiness as if there was someone who was celebrating his or her birthday as if India win a final victory of world cup but it was not the victory of world cup rather the victory of truth.   We all know Diwali was the day when Rama came back to Ayodya his native place and because of this Diwali celebrated but the question arises who is Rama and who is Sita then the answer came in my mind Rama is God and Sita is The Soul and Ayodhya a place where there is no sorrow.   Two years before I read a book which "The real meaning of Ramayana" in which The author said that Hanuman is the Guru, Rama is the God and Sita is the Soul and Ravana is the Mind and lanka is the Body, thus the give me very much clear view about the real meaning of Ramayana and the real objective of writing this book.  
       Thus from that point of view I came to realize that Ayodhya is not any Physical place rather it is a place where there is no sorrow.   How great the objective of Tulsi Das who through writing Ramachritramanas told deep knowledge to us.   From my childhood my father always told me about Rama and his life story and many a time I asked him what was the cause of the victory of Rama over Ravana, then he told me because Rama has a Victory Chariot  then I asked him about the characteristic of the victory chariot then he told me bravery, patience, are the two wheels of that chariot.  Truth and Calmness of mind are the flags of that chariot, strength and Vivek(spiritual intelligence), and keen to do welfare of other are the three main quality of that Chariot, Remembrance of God is like the driver of the Chariot, understanding, awareness, watchfulness are the glory of that chariot.............there after there are some more thing which he told me but I forgot it.  He still now told me that a person who has these qualities in him and her definitely succeed one day.

Swami Vivekananda

       Swami Vivekananda the great philosopher of East and my Favourite thinker and spiritual preacher as well as master. During my childhood I like him the most and when I saw a film made on him then I realize the glory of his desire for the search of truth.  Why I like him the most because I also have a burning desire to know about the truth since my childhood.  And whenever I saw the social Evil of our society then I found it is only Swami Vivekananda's teaching which can wipe out these social evil.  The first thing Vivekananda had told us is to be physically strong enough so that we can face any problem.  He told that if we want to know about the glory of Lord Krishna and his teaching of The Gita then the first thing you have to do is to do Exercise daily and make ourselves physically strong and play Football but although I do excercise daily but I don't anything about this game i.e. Football and many times I tried to learn something about this game but don't able to play properly.  Vivekananda was very much clear in his mind and he knew the problem of this society and also know what is the solution of these problem.  Actually he knew the super conscious mind who is the one who Every time exists. And that is the reason he knew much than psychology because psychology only talks about conscious mind,  Unconscious mind and subconscious mind but only The Master of mind who know about the Super conscious mind.  Vivekananda's spiritual master Ramakrishana Pramahans was the great mystic personality, how can I tell or write about him because his personality is beyond any explanation and I also don't have much intelligence to tell about him if I have then also I can not tell about him because he is beyond HEAD he is beyond THINKING...........
