Effect of an action depends on its essentials and a great extent on its timings. Agreed there are absolute and unquestioned truths above & along the flow of time. Though that is not what we regard as time. As far as understanding of time goes there are uncountable human & environmental factors that make it almost impossible to reproduce a great phenomenon exactly same way again or at another place. It is said quite wisely, you always adapt, in a best possible way to any given situation. Folks who are successful are the ones who probably acted upon the best of the understanding of the given situation. There is no reason to believe the implied intension can not be carried out in a situation. Given the intentions do not have fundamental flaws, the environment to make them succeed can be induced. This truly should mean "making things happen" in a broader sense.

It was Wed Sep 05 22:05:00 IST 2007. And on my roommate's insistence we walked to a Chinese restaurant near to Woodies' for dinner. Only mode we could access the live scores of then live 6th ODI between England and India was cell phone. At first I called up a friend Sanjeeva Reddy. He said said India 269 for 5 after 45th over. They need another 48 runs in 30 balls. Dhoni and Uthappa are playing. We said okay. And consensus was we are set for another disappointment. By the time we finished soup, curiosity started biting again. So I called up Rajnish this time. He said his computer is booting he ll call me back. Oaky. This time the restaurant manager came to our help. With one hand on the receiver, he said, "Sir, Dhoni is out. India 294 for 5. 23 runs needed out of remaining 2 overs." Now beliefs turned into words. Only miracle can save the match, we agreed. I was half way through the cutlets and Vishal about 40 percent through his fired rice. Then went few dumb

In geometry, we always start with axioms. Axiom of a point. Then follow the definitions of the line, plane, co-ordinate system. Thereupon built up are the various theorems and thier proofs till the enormous field of modern animation. So is the way with any scientific stream. Sciences depend more on experiments for their deductions. With the advent of programming, we see lots of mathematics, algorithms, heuristics, data churning and simulations taking pace aiding experiments. Looking at the genesis of every field and thinking why it is the way it is as it is, leads to an interesting sea of possibilities. I start with the numeral system we use. Decimal for the humans and binary for the computers. Origins of numeral system lie the social life engaged in trading for fulfilling its needs and advncement of its individuals. Answer to why not have a hundred as base opposed to ten, lie in human memory to memorize distict numerals when remembering was imperative. For computers it was the two d

This is one of the most joyous kind of relationship. There had been many quotations about friendship. The one that I remember most vividly is about between whom there can be friendship, it goes like this "friendship can exist between persons of same age-group and comparable in power." Personally for me greatest learning has been throgh friends and buddies. May it be knowing about ways of the world or having the fire to getting to the destined. I think that friends are the ones to whom you can relate to most after yourself. Arjun has been described as a friend of Krishna, in Mahabharata. There have been instances of friendships demonstrated and a lot has always been said about it since ages. All along we keep hearng, books are our best firends. One can keep dumping thoughts on a friend without any intention. May it be a trouble or a celebration you got to have friends to get through it or to enjoy it, respectively. It is quite rightly said that a person can be best analyzed t

Choice of blogging over diary is natural for a fish in techy waters. As I meditate more than 40 % of weeks time in front of glowing LED's, webspace poses as more convinient medium to write. Its not that the idea of writing regularly is new to me. I had been writing a diary lately; that was 7 years ago. Now with urge to verbalize my voyage through time and existence here I am using the blogspot. Apart from opportunity to think through the days happenings and experiences it will be fun to wear the writing hat after long time. Also it will be delight to peep into these at some point in future. Happy blogging to myself :)
