Early childhood character building is essential for an individual aspiring to serve the nation...

This is exactly how I spent my childhood days...

And this is me, today, joining the dots backward...

My early childhood days were spent mostly with my grandfather - listening to stories from Mahabharat, Ramayana and the real history of #bharat - playing barefoot on the roads of #puruliya - flying kites in the hot summer sun, playing badminton during winter, playing kaccha and Gulli-danda with a bunch of absolute financially poor people of the locality, participating in top-rotating games - but at the same time reading books likes Dwitiyo Bishwajuddher Itihaas  by Vivekananda Mukhopadhyay, Jue Verns’ Stories like 20000 Leagues Under the Sea, Around the World in Eighty Days, lots of Indrajaal Comics, Haanda-Bhonda - Nante - Fonte, Bantul The Great, Sharadindu Omnibus, Bengali translations of best selling books like Notredum of Hunchback, Three Musketeers, Ami Subhash Bolchi , Bottishi Singhason, Arthur Conan Doyel - spending time in the cowsheds with the cows, and of course trying to memorize few stanzas from Ramayana or Mahabharata - because of high demand from my elder sisters to be recited at any moments.

But one thing was for sure, the almost regular advice from my grandfather - was not to run behind money at any point in time. 

In fact, one day, while traveling by bus, sitting beside a Ramakrishna Mission monk at a very early age, when I was reading loudly the basic instructions written inside the bus like “Smoking is injurious to health” and all such stuff, the monk was taken aback owing to my absolute ordinary, poor outlook. So when he asked me, why I didn’t take admission to Purulia Ramakrishna Mission, I told him, exactly what my grandfather told me …

”You make lots of money from each student and I am not okay with that”.

The monk, totally shocked, asked me,

“Who told you this?”

I replied …”My grandfather”

Later, my mom always used to say

“Khoka… do your duty. Tor peter bhater obhab hobe na” 

meaning carry on. God will take care to feed you.

Hence, salary negotiation could never become a part of an important discussion for me during any new job

rather

what would be the challenge in the job and where and how I fit over there.

And I am happy to say, that I am passing on the same message to my young son…

“don’t run behind money.

one does not have to earn a lot of money to lead a happy life.

rather live a purposeful life and always aim to create an  impact for others who will come in touch with your life”

For the Bengali-speaking and reading population of the #Universe, my awakening regarding the freedom struggle of Bharat was formed at a pretty early age when my Mom read out the book "Ami Subhash Bolchi".

Individualism Vs Teamwork - my viewpoint that i wrote in 2008

 

If nobody comes along with you, you have to walk alone to establish #truth and #dharma

When I traveled and stayed in the two countries over the last two years, one thing I noticed that I would like to share. 

Both these countries are economic superpowers and have produced many great companies. 

One is Japan and the other is the USA.

I noticed that in Japan it's the team that comes first. Success and failure lie in teamwork. 

Whereas in the USA it's individualism that matters. 

Hence the USA can boast of people like Steve Jobs of the modern economy. 

Whereas Japan can boast of Toyota, Sony, Sharp, and so on. 

But these two countries are two extreme examples of 

individualism 

and 

teamwork

We, the people of #bharat, are in the middle. 

We have stopped producing iconic figures like Rama or Krishna of ancient days or Swami Vivekananda of modern days. 

At the same time, we can hardly boast of any world-class organizations. 

We lack individualism because we have already become famous as "Indian crabs"

and 

we lack great teams because of 

extreme factionalism 

and an 

inefficient system

If we want to become an economic superpower, we have to mend our ways and take any one of the extreme steps - 

individualism 

or 

team

The basic idea that all of us will produce the same amount of resources or contribute the same way to society itself is a devil's idea. We are all inherently unique - some people have tremendous positive gain, some people have negative gain - and hence there is no point in controlling the input level so that all of the people of the society create an equal amount of result - itself is wrong.

This idea of communism is not going to serve anyone or create anything marvelous for society

In Bharat, we must create a level playing ground for everyone and let the god-gifted gain produce the natural output - someone will offer tremendous gain, someone will moderate, and yet someone absolutely negative because we are inherently unique.

Enjoy my viewpoint on this...

Probably one of the finest possible birthday-gifts from a young son to his Mom...

The passage of Time - a creation of #ridit - one of the youngest computer scientists of #bharat - the new face of the #vishwagurubharat

The best management lesson during my #fatherhood can be put in words like this - 

If we really want to build a happy family - the head of the family has to make sure that we all must nurture the same principle of 

-lifting each other 

-we should all move together toward the same goal

yes. it's absolute teamwork - the special rhythm of a group of soldiers marching forward - to attain a bigger goal-pursuing a better purpose - not for anything mortal-but just to bring the rightful joy to the human souls

that's why I wrote this

#hindus of #bharat - let's get back our old #gurukul system - let's reclaim our own #whoweare - let's introduce #sanskrit as the common language in #bharat

 Today's discussion: When we came to know about the term infinity - what people across the globe know and are taught - and the reality

Please don't take it as a complete denial of the modern history of science - but we must know the #truth - if we really want to excel

The introduction of the concept of infinity in Upanishad

Please have a look at the document which is 

Śvetāśvatara(KYV) Upanishad - with the explanation from one of the monks of Ramakrishna Mission

The result of my studies on this great scientific asset of #bharat to map the term infinity

Now-  as there were not really any authentic scientific studies of the dates when Upanishads were written - hence I would like to request the Human of Bharat to take these things very seriously - if you really want to know #whoweare and reclaim our lost glory - in the new global order. There is no other way but to present the #original #bharat to the #universe 

 

Now here is a Google Search on infinity that shows a discussion on Britannica and i have taken the text from there - and it mentions that infinity was first used by ancient Greek and it was somewhere around 500 BCE.

Now, the people of #bharat - you will have to take charge to find out the date when Upanishad was written and from those, this concept of the Infinity nature of the #universe is clearly mentioned.

And I am 100 percent sure, Upanishad was written much before 800 BCE - which was the kind of data that is present on the internet.

Fifty shades of grey - the proudest moment of a scientist dad is when his son becomes capable of using tech to create such stuffs on his own

 

Bragging rights - yeah - one may say this...

However, one of the proudest moments of a scientist dad is when he finds his young son becomes capable enough to create such marvelous animation on his own.

This was the birthday gift from my young son - #ridit - who was 10 years old at the time of making the video - on my 50th Birthday.

The tool he used here is #blender

And today, he has become capable enough to deep dive into the blender source code - his natural next step to elevate himself into the world of real computer scientists.

By the way, today I am proudly announcing that Ridit has learned everything about #blnder on his own.

The new face of #bharat - currently 11 years old #ridit

For the people of #universe - unless I left the corporate job I would have never experienced all such finer aspects of human life - only for which 

The World looks beautiful

Enjoy

#nari - written and recited by my wife #reema

 For all those women who misuse their rights

Complicated stuff hai bhai sab - ordinary person ka samjh ne ka bahar - isliye sab khush raho - Zio aur zeene do...

Don't try very hard to gauge the complexities of a #nari - the #woman

So let's all strive for a simple life - aapna zindagi zio aur khush raho...

Zio aur Zine Do...

Live and let live...
