If not now! Then when?

Can we compare India with America? This will be my first question to all those who tell or boast off that America is great. I asked couple of students and elders their answers were like this ….Firstly “yes”, secondly “no”,  thirdly “may be”, fourthly why should we ?.....But my answer would be “If not now! Then when? “We should do something good in for our country. In India if there is a signal post all will be standing in a queue, but if one breaks it or jumps a signal all will think if he is going then why shouldn’t I?...and even he follows but if the same thing happens in” us” ,then all will be standing in that queue except the one who broke .This is the difference. Here everyone wants a change but no one contributes to it. My own experience is the time I had to urinate while going near GandiBazar, but according to government and me I should not urinate in a public place, but there was neither a toilet nor Nirmala Bengalooru. So what should I do??  This will never be the case in “us” since they have restrooms near public places. But being a respected citizen I went to a restroom in an hotel nearby, but most of them will not have the patience to do so.

If not now! Then when? We should be responsible citizens and we should be the tools for future development, so common guys lets protest and ask for better governance and development by supporting the cause. Let’s hope the best for Anna Hazare. 

Connection between Astrology and Astronomy?

This post does not aim at any one person in particular. If anyone feels that there is something which hurts their feelings they are free to express their views in the comments section and the post will be promptly removed!

I have a question in my mind which is inexpressible, Is there any connection between astrology and astronomy? When I asked this question to myself I thought the connection is that both are related to planets. Astrologers always boast off they are far more superior than astronomers , recently I was listening to a speech by an astrologer who said Pluto was not regarded as a planet by astrologers from before ,  But astronomers proved this . In today’s world we youngsters need proof rather than belief. Hence I believe in scientists more than astrologers. Of course I believe in astrologers more than scientists at some time only when it is said by a right astrologer and in a right way, I believe there are many best astrologers who won’t express themselves, we should encourage these astrologers and should try to interact with them more than listening to people who tell they are astrologers but are really not.

Regarding astrology I have many questions in mind, Firstly will wearing a gem ring change our luck? Is there any connection between astrology and astronomy? Will our luck change if wear different gems? Will we get more wealth if we wear a ring in index finger?  And finally can Astrologers prove it with scientific reasons?   If they can’t then why should we accept it the way it is? Or if they prove it then I will be the first one to accept it. If not now! Then when? We should stop believing false things, and we should start seeing each and everything in this world in a scientific way or rather scientifically.

Another question that comes to my mind is, is solar eclipse and lunar eclipse bad for us and our earth we live in? If not then why shouldn’t we consume anything during eclipse? Why should we take bath after eclipse? …….If yes, Then how? Can they (Astrologers) explain scientifically? But scientists say it’s just a phenomena that blocks sun’s rays, and this is how eclipse happens, this is acceptable not because it is said by scientists but because it is proved. But the same thing if asked to astrologer says a big historical story which is hard to believe. Hence I feel listening to scientists is getting educated and listening to astrologers is asking your grandmother to tell a story.

Oh for god’s sake what does planets have to do with human’s life? If Saturn moves then person of this zodiac is affected or that zodiac. Can this be proved? Planets have an orbit to revolve and revolving in their orbits is their work, hence they do it. If it is so how can we compare their movement with our future?

The latest hot topic is will the world end in 2012? If different astrologers say different reasons, different possibilities, different opinions and different answers how can we believe them? One says the world will, the other says it will not. But in the case of astronomy or scientists all say the same thing and all prove the same thing.   

Seeing all these possibilities I conclude that believing science is like believing in yourself, whereas believing astrology is like believing one who knows everything but cannot prove he is right. I believe that science and scientists are those who can be best relied upon than anyone else in this world! ….

Make my wish come true ....

God live by my side

God live by my side, my mother said.

Listening to her, I left the house with pack and cap,

After a great long nap.

He saw me and said “you are first for trek”.

I whispered,” Hope it won’t be my final trek”.

Live free climb high the lead said,

I will push the others the sweeper said.

Moving slowly and closely I found the bus,

Keep your bags said Mr. Hus.

I did as he said leaving my burden,

He then gave me a map of Mount Sweden.

We came to halt at a place,

This made my eyes glaze,

In lovely great words the board said “Beware of snake”

Without any mistake we left the place.

After a long run we were at the base,

We finished our break and got rid of ache.  

One by one we reached the peak,

We then celebrated our horrible weak,

Since, I was the first one to reach the peak.

The lead then shouted”hurrah we reached the peak”,

Jumping in joy we celebrated in Greek.

We all saw deer, elephant and birds,

We all took snaps celebrating with claps.

We then reached base in a stunning way,

Expecting more people away.

I waved my hand to MR. Lead and MR. Creed.

Expecting more treks I left with a plead.

Samarthana(orphan age)

On 28-9-11 (Thursday) As a case study we visited  Samarthana trust for the disabled. The day was pleasant and cool which was transformed into beautiful and fantastic as we reached there at 1:05 in the after noon.

As soon as we entered we were welcomed by all the teachers and students. We first met Mr. Ravi who teaches Science and maths for the students studying there. He introduced himself and told us about the foundation. He told this school consists of 130 students including the dumb and deaf. We asked him how the exams will be conducted for them and he replied there are special methods to conduct exams.

After this we entered the classes, as a kannada lover it was very special for me to speak in kannada. the total strength of 130 students were divided into boys and girls in two different class rooms. We divided ourselves into two groups to ensure proper interaction with the students. We were divided as Ashwin, Smrithi, Vishrutha and Me in the girls section and Ridhi,Poojitha,Deepthi,Safna,Sanjana,Thejaswini and Madhuri in the boys section.  

We began our discussion by introducing ourselves and giving them the information about our school and the reason we were there. We asked everyone their names and hobbies and asked them to sing for the ones told their hobbies were singing. One of the thing which we also discussed was about their Ambition, There were 30-40 girls who wanted to become doctor, 20-30 who wanted to become Engineers and some also wanted to become lawyers and Cops . I told the ones wanting to become doctors to treat the poor and the needy without charging them, the Engineers to construct many educational instutions and Hospitals, the Lawyers to always protect the truth and the Cops to take care of the society.

We then started with the discussion of protecting the environment. We asked them what is environment, the answers were very good (more than our expectation), then we asked their opinion about namma metro (some told it is required where as many told its not required since trees are being cut) after this there was and entrainment program by us Vishrutha sang the song (Naku Thanti) followed by a dance performance by Smrithi.

I concluded the program by telling how to convert the how waste into manure and the use of 3R’s (reduce, re-use and recycle).This day gave me more confidence in my life to achieve any hardships now I believe in the saying (impossible is nothing).
