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.
