A few things can be sensed only when we come across it. We all have desires, aspirations to do something great, to reach at a position better than the current one. Either we reach it or may be not. Let me start with the failure. If we are unable to achieve the goal, for a time being we get frustrated and sad. The situation becomes grim at times if peers are able to reach it. Probably this is our nature. Some of us are unable to cope with the failure thinking it as the end but the brave and pragmatic people strive, struggle to grab the next best opportunity. Life is full of ups and downs, and when we finally achieve something which we certainly will, its all happy and gay.
Therefore we always try to look forward to celebrate every small event, every small success. What I feel is New year also comes in line with this argument.We have found out great ways to rejuvenate the feelings, energize ourselves, and forget the setbacks.

Belgium Adventure
We had a team building exercise in Belgium. It was a country side. After a exhaustive trip we reached there to find a type of food that could not be eaten. But it was a treat for the alcohol drinkers. I did not have much aspirations from the event but now when I see back I it was something that forged a new bonding among us.
To see somebody fearing from jumping in trapeze, to shouting while in flying in the zip drive.
It was really a cherished dream fulfilled

My views on Krishna Murthy's Life and Death
There are a few things that are beyond the obvious. Very few people supposedly know about them and rarely will you find a person who has really understood this fact. Most of the persons who have earned a fortune in this field have successfully disguised their ignorance. The reason can be simulated as in the case of preparation for exams where many coaching institutions have got results without really caring for the concepts. The dilemma is why are they successful. What ever has been written now does not by any angle means that I have reached the niche. I am also ignorant but not ignorant enough to accept whatever is being told without really pondering over it and asking questions. The question is, is it really a fact or merely an unreachable and non-existing destination. The question is, is their any way to reach the goal, leave aside the shortcut path.
These and many questions arose while I was going through Life and Death of J. Krishnamurthy, a short biography by Mary Luteyns. “Truth is pathless” is one of the many profound statements in his discourse. I call it profound accepting myself as ignorant and with due respect to the intelligence and revelation as perceived by K(Krishnamurthy). Simultaneously K says that the feel of the ultimate truth can be known only when we have reached that stage. The problem arises here that we do not know where to reach neither we know how to reach.
Critically looking at K, he might have had the true revelation and to get there he asks us to search our soul. But it might also be possible that the possession of his body, which everyone thinks to have been done by the Lord Maitrya, is simply a manifestation of human mind and the large followers, groping to find some one who can get them nirvana. He may be simply a schizophrenic. Though this further enhances the ability of K’s mind to grasp the entities of the life.
But in any case what ever he spoke is certainly worth following. He followed many of his tenets. Therefore he, at the peak of his fame discarded the title of guru. Probably he had that confidence that he can make people learn more by interacting than by teaching.
But again it cannot be forgotten that when Rajagopal came in full command of his society and he was not very happy with the style of his functioning, he chose to drag him to the court. Some body may say that he only gave him the full rights. But as can be read he was not very happy at his decision and signed the papers in dilemma.
People ask that no body can find the reason for his sufferings and it was termed as a way of purification. The underlying assumption is that iron has to feel the burnt of fire to get to a desired shape. But rightly compared by Mary that the perfectionist in their respective separate fields did not undergo through these sufferings.
In any case, the world has certainly been benefited by his huge insights and is yet to divulge the details of his interaction.

Mass Mentality
The golden four years of my BTech life is nearing the end. These years have given me something which is equivalent to what I had learnt in the earlier 18 years. While introspecting I found myself on a very different platform in the last few weeks. I found what it means to be odd one out, may be for the right or the wrong reason. Then I could identify what is mass mentality. Fortunately or unfortunately I used to have similar thought as the so called masses. So it was not possible for me to have an insight as to what the person in front of me was going through when he was being forced upon to do something. Though it was a forceful act for him, for me it was a genuine act.
Some of the instances which I later realized was, when we forced few of the persons to pay for a party thrown for our juniors. We were unable to know his problems as we were not facing them. It is really something which I would like to learn to cope with.
Another thing to note is that most of the persons supposedly in the mass do not share exactly the same view as the dominant person in the group. They simply agree either because they do not want to be under any pressure or for the sake of the friend.
It is really so difficult to make a choice between what you really want to do and what people want you to do! Some times it is better to keep the friends’ wishes but what is the real time solution when any friend becomes very demanding. For the sake of your friendship neither you can throw him out of the scene, even if you are capable of doing that, nor can you always suppress your own feelings.
Lets see what comes out as the solution………….

Future of India and the Indian people/students
Finally the old horses understood the reality though partially and the result was a two day brain storming session on “Future of Metallurgy in India”. Every body made some points and the rest heard. We do not know as to how much of it will really be implemented. All were seeing to it that none must be left out. Finally professors, industrialists and students all were thanked for making the occasion a success. But no body really saw one person who was actually the most important person in making every body getting heard. Had he been not there attending the full two day session without a break, right from the word go till the end, we would have been able to pay heed to each other. Irony is that he does not have any thing to do with the future of Metallurgy or to say the future of India also. This is the soundwala person, yes the same person who arranges mike and the stuffs.
If anybody would have seen him, he would have noticed that he was making blank faces every time there was a huge applause or he would yawn when the speaker was gaining the tempo.
This poor bald fellow, was not able to understand the English language and so had no option other than to sit quietly with no body to speak to. In the same hall, many stalwarts of the country have spoken of making India a global power. But nobody has even once tried to look at the plight of the person sitting on stool at some distance to them. This shows as to why the policies do not show the real results. Unless all the people do not get the benefit of the developments we will remain poor. It won’t matter even if instead of 4 Indian come to the richest list or 40.

Traffic Signal or India's situation
Today i saw the movie "Traffic Signal".The movie certainly depicts the real life at the signal. This would be certainly appreciated by the people who experience it daily at the same signals, except perhaps at Sunday.One thing is for sure that whatever profession one is in he needs to work hard to get success.Second there always is a natural leader. In fact no body wants to take the initiative and wants somebody to pitch in first. Probably this is why we were ruled by the Britishers for so long, and now by these politicians.
The irony of the India's situation is that if there is any problem everybody knows the reason except the person who is supposed to fix it.Here also if we know that there is so and so problem at the traffic signal why the government or the concerned functionaries do not take care for their job. This is something I would never understand.

Follow a dream
Let’s follow a dream
A dream to dream.
For some the problem is inception
Rest say it’s continuation.
Most halt prior to start
Rest taste sweat of salt.
Does the coal know
His future is in fire.
Does the flower know
His future is in pyre.
Does the coal know
Jewels are there to adore
Does the flower know
God is there to bore.
Who knows what is heaven or hell?
Let’s follow a dream
A dream to dream.
God helps those
Who help you
Take a step forward
He is always with a clue.

A journey to Kumbh
After 3 and half hours of tiresome journey, one of my friends yelled: hey! Look, it’s beautiful. Expecting nothing great, I slowly turned to find really a scenic beauty. We were crossing the bridge at Allahbad and the lightings of Ardhkumbh were at their best stretching to around 5 odd kms on both sides. My friend started to take pictures and I had to be content only with my mobile phone camera which was really unrecognizable at the end.
My sole aim of this visit was to get a feel as to how does one feel when others are busy writing their paper (for which they had come) and you are free as a bird to do anything you wish. After a good night’s sleep we went to the Sangam.
At the ghat, I easily found the monopolistic ladies selling small cans for filling water, so called pure Ganga jal. When I neared the place of holy dip through the small boat, I was feeling ashamed of the bathroom with just the sky as the roof. Everyone was telling the importance of the dip and I was ashamed of the ladies (though they were also taking the dip). To add to the agony the saviour of our religion, the pandits were busy making money with four liners mantra and the multiple times used coconut. Used because, small children were hired by this man to find the used coconut from the Sangam for further use. One should really learn how to make business without investing 2 pennies (one penny for coconut bought for the first time!).
Leaving this aside, I also did not know how to swim. Only one of my fiends knew and I was pretty sure that at the time of need he will be first and only one to be at the shore. Finally I decided to get into the Ganges/Yamuna/Saraswati. The water was so cold that I immediately empathized with the souls of Titanic tragedy. How would they have felt when they sunk into freezing water .It was not as cold and my legs had started getting numb.
After the dip I now was considering myself pure and at that time I could see interface of Ganges and Yamuna, Ganges with dull brownish colour and Yamuna with greenish attire.
Though earlier the reason was, I was busy seeing something else.
The enormity of the Ardhkumbh was awesome and no qualms as to why, brothers getting separated in the kumbh mela was the theme of uncountable Bollywood classics. We also would have needed to go to “bhule bhatke shivir” thanks to tariff free call to local airtel connections.

My experiments with an interview
This is a summary of my experience during the process. Many things one can get from the site itself, and rest of the stuff when they will come for PPT
Best part of the whole process was its transparency. They detailed us the various steps they would follow and the corresponding skill sets required. Their main focus was on CAR and T
Capacity – 1) How does one analyze the data
2) Thinking out of the box
Achievement 1) Perseverance and patience
Relationship 1) How does one work in a group
Technical This part was related to the technical project done which was to be presented in the most simplified way.
The process was distributed in three parts Case study , Group Exercise, Technical interview
CASE STUDY:
My program started at 6’o clock in the morning. I was given a 20 odd page foreground of the case , the earlier evening. Then in the morning I was supplied with 22 page case to be read in 80 minutes. They also gave a sample case during the ppt. It related to various problems meshed in one. After the time was over, I was called up by one of the experts. They were really very cooperative and ever smiling. I was asked to present the theme in 5 min. The last day we were given a mock exercise and were given some tips as well about the presentation. They were expecting the theme to have
1 Key issues
2 Short term and medium term actions
3 Strategic actions/ long term solutions.
It was followed by 20-25 min questionnaire session . They asked almost all the practical questions possible and simultaneously picking up questions from my presentation.
GROUP EXERCISE:They had specifically mentioned, do not show aggressiveness. This round is to check ‘A’ and ‘R’. Do not try to employ CSR type of GD funda. Here also we were given a case. We had to reach to some conclusion. Also the plan suggested was to be strategically explained. This was a great problem as my partner could not read the material due to paucity of time and he was beating around the bush neither was he helping me to reach any conclusion. Finally we could not reach to any. This was the thing which was troubling me during the result as it was my weakest link, though due to the group.
I tried to be as polite as possible. All this gave a feel of the real tedious task of the managers.
After the given time they asked us to summarize. I took this opportunity (after asking the group). I explained the possible options but as some of the others had not given their strategy I left it( I was asked to stand up after I started speaking without standing). Then the assessors asked others if they had any comments. They had a few of their own points.
As we were asked in the mail, following were stressed upon
#Objective of my (preferred) project.
#What are the things you did ?
# Specific challenges faced
# The steps employed
# What is the utility of your project
# What financial advantages does it have, some specific questions which was coming up from my answers itself. I showed them by calculation that a profit of $1million can be had with this project.
Any Questions?
---------------------------------------------------The END--- ----------------------------
After the results feedback were given to a few students (who were not selected). Amazingly their feedback correctly pointed out the original nature of the students. So one should not try to fool them.

UTSAV REVISITED
Since the inception of UTSAV in 1997, it has never looked back both in terms of quality of participation and the funds. As far as UTSAV’06 is concerned there were many inspiring developments. First of all Prashant bhaiya was present. Though he curtailed our liberties to a great extent we learnt a lot from him. He made us prepare the words to be spoken on stage before the event. Initially we got irritated but it was for the ultimate good, as could be seen that it certainly gave a direction. It also gave a sense of responsibility. Rajesh bhaiya was once again on the spree.
For the first time we organized the Alternative Career Workshop and it was certainly a huge success. At least the forms filled showed the pathetic condition of the students of Purnea. We certainly need to cater to such needs. Problem is how? If any body just visits Purnea, just read the career alternative workshop forms, they are so vague. I mean the guys are not aware as to where they are heading to.
As far as lit events were concerned, I personally found that guys/ gals did not come forward to speak of their own. Though it was the condition when we were at that age but we need to change it. While some people spoke I found that they had a good command over the language especially girls but they were unable to speak maintaining the eye contact. We can break such virtual shells by interacting with them when ever we visit to Purnea.
The fine arts events were fabulous. People put up their ideas efficiently over paper.
From us Utsav certainly helps to train what it means to organize an event of such a scale. For us this acts as a great leap when the point of organizing the events at institute comes.
One very pleasant thing which any body can witness is the friendly competitiveness.
Finally we also must appreciate some of the students who participated in almost all the events right from cricket to debate.
Congratulating everybody for making UTSAV a success.

Winds of Change
I follow the Koshi
Down to runbhoomi
Listening to the wind of change
A december chilling night
Students passing by
Listening to the wind of change
Utsav continuing
did you ever think?
That we could be so close, like brothers
I can feel it here(heart)
Blowing with the wind of change
Take me to the workshop
Holding every breath
where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
Walking down to Sir's place
with fading memories
Igniting them.
Listening to the wind of change
I follow the Koshi
Down to runbhoomi
Listening to the wind of change
Take me fore stage
awe looking the faces
Listening to the wind of change
The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like the freedom bell for peace of mind
Take me fore stage
awe looking the faces
where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change.

Welcome to IR
I was trying hard to find my way through a small passage. Though the distance to be covered was only a few meters but it took me well above 5-10 min. Welcome to the Indian Railways sleeper compartment, especially in the land of railway minister. In trying to woo people and increasing profits this great man of the Indian history has also forgotten the basics, that to increase the productivity the bottom line must be made well furnished.
When you are sleeping fast asleep in the comforts of the leather berth swinging loosely some body would buzz like a mosquito and ask bhai saahab din me kyun so rahe hain? What the hell? This is my reserved berth, I gave the reply. So what? But when I saw that every person who were in their deep slumber has woken up and are crouching at the corner of their berth, I felt it would be better if I also follow suit. So did I . I had quite a few similar experiences, so now first of all I check out I can get enough support from the fellow travelers who have valid reserved tickets.
During one of my travel from Mughalsaray to katihar I boarded rather made my way till my berth and as usual found it occupied. I sternly asked them to vacate my seat. The guy says let the train move then soon I will get away, till then just adjust. I thought these words should be spoken by me at this time. But still! I replied , no adjustment dear just leave. Now I settled in my berth, but just to show some pity I offered him one eighth corner of my seat which after some time creped to one fourth then one third. Hey! I said: you remember this is my seat and I am not getting any place to adjust my butt even. Take care of these situations also Mr Railway minister.

T.I.M.E. TRAUMA
I recall an year and half ago when I thought that billi ke gale me ghanti baandhna is easy but it has turned out to be really queasy. I used to laugh when people said it's difficult,but now I can see all those wide bow like lips laughing back at me.kabhi kabhi sochtaa huun ki itne cheez ko discover karne ko to so called scientisto ne kar diya par un sab ki sazaa hame jhelni pad rahi hai.
You see all-around you will see that course books hit you like magazines and magazines are already named so. DI seems to be Death interpretation and RC are really callous. And each wednesday reminds, hey! you have topped .....but from bottom.
pata nahi kya kewal meri hai ye kahaani.Samay hai kam ,kaam hai jyaada and DI is again haunting from back so I stop here itself.

Quota for Other (than) Bhartiya Castes
The decision of the government to pass the bill without seeking the opinion of the masses and without proper debate shows its appeasement policy. The other parties as well are equally responsible for this ensuing debacle of the education system. Some parties though reiterate that there should not be anyappeasement butthey can be seen pursuing their vote bank politics when they helped to pass the bill unanimously.To see the pros and cons of the decision we need to get to the past i.e. the Mandal commission . It was adopted in 1989 which led to such a furor that the then Prime minister Mr. Vishwanath Pratap Singh had to resign, but he had already given the blow. The integrity of the report can not be doubted as the so called lower caste people have not developed as some of the upper caste people. But this never suggests that in order to equalize every body we should cut the head of some people and provide a screw jack below the ass of others. Unfortunately this is exactly what is being done. Also after so many years of the of reservation policy much change has not been seen in the overall condition and the mentality has detoriated as if the reservation is their birthright.
This should also bring to the politicians' mind that there is some inherent flaw in there policy as regard to the development of the society (though not in their personal benefits in terms of vote bank) The preamble also clearly mentions that there should be equality of opportunity and not that some body should be given advantage over others.When Dr. Ambedkar accepted the Simon Commission decision regarding the reservations for the SC/ST in Pune pact, Mahatma Gandhi showed his dissent saying it would widen the gap between the upper caste and the lower caste people. This is exactly what can be seen in the present scenario. This can be seen in all the places where such discriminations are made. The Mandal Commission was adopted by full measures in the Colleges under State Government and there we can see a clear divide between the different castes. The students are divided in various factions as FC/BC/OBC etc.After the Mandal Commission II was adopted a major change can be observed among students of the other elite colleges which are to come under the purview. The change is : The students are now trying to identify the OBCs and non OBCs. In my opinion this was bound to happen under such circumstances.The other demand put forward is the reservations in the private enterprises. I am at a fault to understand that how do we plan to see India shining and have a double digit growth with such ridiculous ideas.
Now, the propellers of the reservation policy would contend about the social duties. The answer is pretty clear, if at all you want to bring equality to the society take care of the people below the poverty level. They may be upper caste or lower caste or any body but for God sake do not curb the intelligent and deserving candidates only because they do not belong to the lower caste.Many people then also contend that, in the past the backward caste people have been treated badly. So what do you want now? You want to avenge those maltreatment from the generation who is broad minded and tries to weigh everybody equally. Some of the actions taken is praise worthy as to allow the SC/ST students to prepare for the IITJEE exam under the guidance of the Professors of the institute itself but again there is no justification of curbing the merit.

2nd stint TAKE 1 LAGE RAHO SAJJAN BHAI
Saw Munnabhai part 2. The movie is a good comedy if you try hard to laugh. What ever be the future of the movie but the trailor had depicted the essence i.e. gandhigiri.It was really a peaceful way to bore any body.You have paid so you can not go outof the theatre believing against belief that the movie will have some twist. Arshad Warsi the main actor in the Munnabhai part1 had too little a role. So the medhak wali aankh ka( Hulchal yadi dekhe ho to) banda could not deliver. Overall much ado about nothing
