Thoughts/Quotes

Quote #1






All of us are learners at different stages of our very own lives...and with totally different circumstances and experiences to offer. Some have crossed the pathway, some have yet to cross the pathway. No two lives are the same, no two experiences whether recent or past are the same and no one in this journey of life is an expert."

"In short, we are all constantly learning and evolving in this journey of life."


Quote #2

"Good days and bad days form a part of who we truly are, in particular our existence. If it were not for the bad days, we wouldn't be who we are today and if it were not for the good days, we wouldn't be reminded of the great things we have achieved/accomplished, more importantly the struggles and obstacles that once defined our lives, but now lay as yet another chapter of a book called life!"

Quote #3

"Every single being and individual on this planet is by default born with a potential and a purpose that remains hidden or frozen. It is only by tapping into it or unlocking it, do we start to discover the true meaning and essence of our lives thereafter."



Quote #4


"The way a person thinks about you/perceives you/formulates an opinion about you does not necessarily give you a vivid picture of who you truly are. To quite the opposite note, it does paint a picture of who they truly are, including their perceptions and opinions, shaped by their experiences and circumstances to help arrive at that particular opinion/perception that has been formulated about you."


Quote #3



"Beyond all possible bias, beyond all stereotyping and finally beyond the very boundaries and crevices of our hardened identities, lies an infinite reality yet to be discovered and explored, currently buried deep in what constitutes a 'utopia' of the present-day contemporary world we live in"

Quote #4

"We are born to discover our true potential and in the process, harbour meaning and realism in how we look and perceive life and the things around us"

The Pulao in the Making

It was a Sunday afternoon of another weekend in Goa. Coming home from the long ardous journey, I spent a few minutes sifting through the pages of the local daily.  All of a sudden, I was taken aback by the sumptuous aroma of a Goan dish that filled the entire household as my mum set off to prepare it as part of a huge spread for the feast day. I have no words to describe my love and fascination towards this dish that I now proudly consider on such days as T.G.I.P.D - Thank God It's Pulao Days. With its strong aroma - a culmination of the spices of cardamom, cinnamon, cloves - 'pulao' is but one of the dishes that has grown to occupy a prominence in many Goan households on feast days. Driven by the aroma it brings in, everytime my mum has prepared it, I also drew a liking towards this delicacy. After a lot of convincing with my grandmother, I was finally granted my spot in the vast expansive kitchen. As it is customary in most households, men are not accustomed to be in the...

Uncertainty - The New Certainty?

A couple of weeks back, I was deeply reflecting over some of the key happenings and events that shook the world in the last six months. As I spent my time, in mere introspection of these events right from the last straws of the pandemic, to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine crisis, the growing stagflation worldwide and the recent FTX scandal along with the massive layoffs at Meta and Twitter, it suddenly occurred to me that in all these scenarios, there was but one thing they all had in common - the never-ending 'uncertainty'.  Uncertainty or as I would put it 'an anxiety over what lies ahead in the future' is usually something that we encounter in our day to day lives and circumstances. Whether it is in our lives as students, as freshers, as working professionals or even as bachelors or spinsters - there are no dearth of examples to explain these small or minute instances of uncertainty that we encounter on a daily basis. This so-called 'uncertainty' forms a unique ch...

The Evolving Conscious Mind...

A while ago I was scrolling through my social media feed as on normal days. While I was busy keeping my senses pre-occupied with this gratifying task at hand, all of a sudden I had a great epiphany. I was left beyond mere wonder upon making this crucial discovery and would like to enumerate more about it. A creative insight into what I would describe as the 'evolving conscious mind' or 'rational mind'. Conscious thinking is what I would describe - a state of mind optimally attained where one is able to think rationally in the moment. In other words, adopt a clear lens in distinguishing between a truth, a reality and a fantasy. It is an aphorism to how we live our present-day lives right from our teenage years, to adulthood and finally the receding years of our lifespan. Conscious thinking in a more broad sense dictates the very choices we make, the decisions we take and more importantly how we choose to streamline the natural course of our existence on this Planet Earth...
