Practical Wisdom

By - Abhudai Pal and Anubhav Pal Teenage, the period of life when you begin to step out from home alone, witness the world from your eyes and get a little experience of dealing with strangers. Some experiences are good while some horrifying. The most enticing experience in teenage is the attraction towards the opposite sex. The tragedy of this age is that you feel in the same way for every guy/girl you stare and develops the belief he/she is your soul mate. Melodies of songs such as – You, do you remember me?, Baby I am addicted!, Finally find you, girl! Songs similar to these play in your mind on repeat whenever you encounter a Tall, Handsome guy or a beautiful lady. I believe teenage love is free from conspiracies and  auditing of the person before falling for the guy/girl. But at this age what you feel for every person is not love. What you feel only for the one might be called love. There exists a word which defines your feeling for every person you see and conside

By - Abhudai Pal He was the invincible, indefatigable and the greatest warrior of his time. He was the son of Maharaja Shantanu and River Ganges.  The stories of his valor were deep-rooted in the minds of his enemy. Even his Teacher Lord Parshuram wasn’t able to defeat him in a war. The Ganges Son Bhisma was the ardent follower of dharma. He denied being the King of Hastinapur just for the sake of his Stepmother Satyavati. She aspired to make her children the King. To fulfill her stepmother wish. Without an iota of doubt or hesitation, Bhisma committed himself to live an ascetic life and to serve as the Protector of Hastinapur throughout his life. For BHISM abiding by his commitments was his DHARMA. The magnanimous heart of Bhism permitted him to sacrifice Kingship for his parent's Happiness is one among the many sacrifices he made for his Dharma. He has only dream throughout life, to witness “ Justice and Dharma”  ruling on Hastinapur's Throne.  The commi

By - Abhudai Pal Disclaimer – This writing might change your perception of relationships . "Every person with balanced hormone dreams to be in a relationship in his/her life. Relationships are enticing for teenagers and adults, satisfactory for Middle age people and Over-rated according to the old people".  Pari and Nakul said in a dishearted mood. The gradual shift in perception from enticing to satisfactory and finally tagging it as Overrated intrigues me a lot. In Teenage/Youth, the gentleman/lady who aspires to amble in a park holding each other hands, talking for hours, preparing favorite dishes to appease their partner , saying sorry multiple times for no reason and being angry for the sake of experiencing partners cajoling. Let’s enter into the Middle age. The glamorous skin of youth fades. The person enters into his Middle age due to TIME. Whether a middle-aged person convinces himself/herself for losing the charm of their skin or regrets, is s

By - Abhudai Pal This too shall pass! The sentence conveys that, whatever we see, feel, watch and experience is not eternal. Thus, the temporary problems we perceive as permanent is nothing but the illusion of the mind.  The way our society has programmed us is taxing us. Why the habit of visualizing the half-empty glass is imbibed in us? The preachings of society have programmed us in a way that we consider only the negative aspects of life.  How could you be creative, when your mind focuses only on: How painful is my life? How everyone is interested in pulling my legs? How bad luck is my companion? The arrival of these thoughts is not a concern. The concern is that you approve your self-immolating thoughts. The moment your mind thinks, “I am not worthy of this prize”. Your mind begins to collect the data of all competitions in which you failed. It recollects the memories of your peers mocking you and reminds you of your loses. But, none of your past wins . The m

By - Abhudai Pal When you were a kid you must be fond of a Khilona (Toy). You were ready to fight against the whole world if your Khilona was missing.  Do you remember the days when you were highly possessive about your Khilona? You kept your Khilona with the utmost care. Your Khilona was: The first one you wished good-morning. You took your Khilona everywhere with you as your companion albeit it didn’t respond, but listened to you peacefully. You give your Khilona a sip of your milk, a morsel of your lunch, Dinner etc You slept beside your Khilona and if you were too possessive you sang a lullaby to make the inanimate object go to sleep. Even in your dreams, you built castles in the AIR with your Khilona to roam around the world. Remember, How you were ready to fight with your parents if they threatened to throw/steal your Khilona? The days of childhood are the testimonies of our innocence and gullibility to believe everything and how small things matter a lot to us.

By - Abhudai Pal "IF EVERYONE IS THINKING ALIKE, THEN SOMEBODY ISN'T THINKING"  George S Patton Every night in clubs all over the world, young ladies and gentlemen sing, dance and party hard. They met new acquaintances, shares a drink, To be precise, requests to buy a drink for the new stranger. Two people discuss their sorrow and told each other that, How the whole world is conspiring to ruin their life's happiness? The discussion between two people of same or opposite sex, give them a reason to stay in a hotel room or their apartment just for the night and forget everything after that night.

By - Abhudai Pal Finally, I did it. Wow, Really, Great, How, When, Where? Wait, have a seat and elucidate your experience to me in detail. How did he/she agree? Was it exciting, something which makes you feel like heaven as showed on screens? How did you do it? You are our guru now!! Tell me from the beginning, I want to hear every detail. The conversation you read above is one among the several discussions of a teenage group. They are not discussing any academic or non-academic achievement but an achievement which fetched glory especially for a boy in his friend circle. Let us pay a little attention to the choice of the words on the achievement of the first sexual experience that the teenager is bragging about. "Finally I did it" . Yes, a lady/gentlemen had sex in his teenage. Is it a licentious behavior? Two people mutually decided to explore each other, it must neither be offensive nor illegitimate. But is it okay to have in
