My Story

        Every one had difficult times in their life when you might have felt depressed, some kind of feeling like some unknown force in this universe is keep on trying to crush you, your dreams. You might have felt severe humiliation, insult, assault from fellow human beings whom you might have believed in the most. Finally you might have ended up in a situation where you might be thinking of leaving this world, this is the most important phase of your life and this is where you will be tested by the life. Unfortunately many of capable warriors who can pass this test are being killed by its enemy 'Mind Set'. Many innocent lives are taken away by mental illness, mental instability, severe depression and is one of a serious health issue in our nation. This is the time to Change in every aspect, improve in every field and hence in this case. Let us express our self take away the weight from our heart and hence attain mental stability. In my childhood I had faced severe humiliation, I was fat and I am unable to pronounce some words properly, my voice remained childish and never attained maturity. Fellow students  used to mock at me. I was very fat and so I always used to loose especially in sports. I was very sensitive and sometimes felt awkward depressed gazing at myself before a mirror. But I was strong enough to be happy recognizing the love my parents showed towards me and many of my friend liked me inspite of my awkward structure. Soon I had got answers to my depression. When I left my school left my sensitive behavior and never cried there after. When I was in to my engineering I lost my weight and my friends became more fatter than me and my childish voice and my condition of not able to pronounce some words turned in to a gift for me so that most of the people used to like my behavior, voice and you may not believe, today I have the most number of friends in my college than all others. Most of them may have ego feelings and clashes between them but till date I do not have any enemies in my college. Every one likes me and treats me as a child with so much of love and care. This is all because of the strength which I attained because of my friends, parents, their love and affection. When we feel depressed and thinking of ending our lives, we should be able to realize that our life is not only important to us but is equally important to every one who trusted us. I hope this one thought can CHANGE our lives.#A Healthy Mind makes things different. Jai Hind. Satyamevajayate.

My INDIA My Responsibilities....

                     India, the name itself has something in it or may be I am very much attached to it. We all have that something towards our nation but unfortunately we don't realize it early and by the time we realize we may not have opportunity to serve our nation. We all support our nation when coming to any sports and games, that reflects our respect and love towards our country, but we often forget it in our daily routine and we misinterpret serving the nation as some sacrifice or doing something extra ordinary such as joining armed forces etc. We need to come out these sort of mind sets. Serving the nation can be achieved in every single task you do and we need to in order to make our country better. For example if we are a student you need to think that the way you progress in your life may change nation's fate, you may become a scientist to empower science and technology growth for your country, you may be a farmer who produces food for the country, you may be a engineer to apply science to design new products and empower economical growth of your country, you may be a doctor who takes care of your country's health, you may be a philosopher who can inject the people with the real idea of India as mentioned in our constitution or any other profession you choose, your sincerity towards your profession shows your service and respect towards your nation. We can render our services to nation on a daily basis by keeping our roads, railway stations, bus stands clean by using dust bins provided. We should be mature enough to accept the equality and respect the dignity of each individual irrespective of their religion or cast or profession. Most of us does not bother of our cast when we need something from others, for example when are working in a company we do not care whether the CEO of the company belongs to our cast or not but when we wanted a relation ship such as marriage we see the cast, religion forgetting the education that we have got. This is where the difference comes between Literacy and just mere education. We all praise Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Swami Vivekananda but never follow their teachings when coming to real life. Judge a person by his character not by his colour, this is a famous quote given by Martin Luther King. In India we judge a person by his religion and cast which is even worst. Years passed since we got our independence but still the discrimination prevails in our country which act as a social barrier for our development. Every individual born on this holy land should be given equal opportunity to excel in his abilities and make his life better. We should stop discriminating among ourselves and try to achieve the dreams of our heroes who sacrificed themselves to set this country free. We should accept our responsibilities, respect our culture, constitution and let our upcoming generations to know the struggle, glory of the nation maintaining our unique identity among the world nations. Jai Hind. Satyamevajayate .

Understanding Engineering

        Are we engineers? Yes, we are all engineers. What are our primary objectives? Engineering in my terms is understanding science and technology in the process of application. Engineering is one important field in which a country's progress is dependent on. Almost all manufacturing industries require engineering skills. Research and development areas portraits a country's brand in international markets. Coming to our country where are our engineering skills? Where is our art and architecture. Our mythology describes about a great civil engineer Vishwakarma. We know about the mordern day engineer like Vishweshwaraiah. We are very lucky to be in a hub of civil engineering beauties. The greatest civilizations existed in our country. Many of our temples have a scientific reason behind their construction which reflects the understanding of science by our ancestors. This is the birth place of great mathematicians like Aryabhatta and Ramanujan, scientists like Charaka. Even our Vedas, Upanishads, Epics portray various applications of modern day science and technology. Most of us may not agree to this but one thing we must understand is these belong to our India not just to a religion called Hinduism. If we understand this simple thing our unity wins over our ego and we accept the Indian history and develop new ideas from our knowledge which is in the form of Vedas and share it to the rest of the world creating our own brand on the international platform. In my views the greatness of these mythological treasure is overshadowed by religion. Even the lord Krishna's 'Geetha' help us only to build our character and face difficult situations that arise in our life but never preaches any religion. It is not a book of any religion, it is the treasure of our country. Coming to present day scenario most of us are dedicated towards earning a degree with a good score rather than earning knowledge. Even our engineering colleges are concentrating on placements rather than towards empowering students with knowledge.We need to focus ourselves towards gaining knowledge and not on scores and also we need to transform our system towards this. A humble request to all the parents to support their loved one's dream. You may feel my words as a piece of old outdated philosophy but there certainly a need for transforming ourselves. I have been to a lecture where a professor, I don't remember his name, said that the aim of the college is to empower you with knowledge and it is our responsibility to search for a job where we fit in, not just for money but to create your own mark in that profession. It is true it is our responsibility to earn a job which we like so that we don't enforce our dreams which we did't fulfill on the next generation and let them have their own freedom. We may have severe economic crisis where we certainly need to do a job and help our family, in that case we can do any job for your family and in the same time we can learn new things in our area of interest and keep trying to get in to our own field. You will surely succeed, moreover you will enjoy your work you never be in a depression that I left my field. Our Prime Minister 'Shri Narendra Modi' has introduced Make in India initiative which is very much essential in our journey towards development. How can we achieve this? Not certainly by only software engineers or data analysts, we also need engineers of different fields, Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Bio and Chemical. We need to transform our country, we need to transform ourselves, we should love our field rather than earnings, we need a change in our system such that create equal employment opportunities in all fields so that we don't see a electrical engineer by degree transforming himself to a software engineer by profession just because of lac of opportunities and lead the rest of his life cursing himself. We need industries, conglomerates to invest towards Make in India, create job opportunities, encourage all fields of engineering. We also need to transform the system so that we increase the quality of engineering colleges not the quantity. We need to understand engineering and not just replicate the words in the examination. Let us transform our selves to transform our India. All you engineers out there throw away your All in ones, Previous Year's Question Papers, Important Question Banks and start a journey to be a engineer not just by your degree but by your ideas and mindset. Jai Hind. Satyamevajayate.

Are you a Patriot??

                 What is patriotism? It is love and respect towards your country. Have you ever asked yourself  whether you are a patriot? Are we patriots? Yes we all are patriots. Let me explain you...  April 2nd, 2011.. It was already time to bed and to prepare our self  for another busy day but most of us are on the edge of our seats to see are country to become the world champions in cricket, people of all kind, rich and poor, cricket lovers and haters, parents who restricted their children not to watch cricket also accompanied them, every one eager to give advice from all corners of the country. Every one including politicians, businessmen, NRI's from different parts of the world, people from country side, cities almost every one 100 crores of Indians praying  GOD for one wish, the way they pray may differ but only one wish 'Let us be the champions'. This show the Unity in Diversity of the nation, the moment we won every one had celebrated forgetting the busy schedule next day. What is this.. This shows our love towards the nation. When we hear that Mission to Mars by India succeeded we all will be so happy though we may not know the real aim of the mission. Olympic medals, Asian games,Hockey,Badminton,Boxing, Tennis, Cricket, Science and Technology no matter what field it was we will be so happy to hear that our nation's achievements. On the contrary we feel sad show our concern, condolences when ever we come across something bad such as road accidents, crimes etc. We curse the people those who loot the country. This shows our identical thoughts, love towards our nation. Then what we lag.. may be implementation, we all love our country don't know how to convert that love in to a practice which enrich our country. More over we have too much love but we lac respect that is the reason why we don't bother to throw waste on roads, public places etc, we don't follow  the rules, we never mind to give bribes, never mind to take them. All these to shatter away we need to have some respect along with some responsibilities towards the nation. we should be aware of the loss incurred to the country by those deeds we do. We should be responsible enough not to do any task that may cause loss to the nation, whether it is loss to cultural heritage or loss to economy, may be one rupee or crores we shouldn't commit those acts which cause loss to the nation and doesn't allow any one who try to damage our heritage. We need not be a soldier or an IPS officer in order to serve the nation, our sincerity in every work we do shows our service to nation. A sincere student can serve the nation by new discoveries in his field or with his work. A sincere sportsmen can bring laurels to the nation. A sincere politician can serve the nation better than today. A sincere teacher can recreate the future by grooming the young minds towards India's destiny. Every work you do may enrich us but we need sincerity. We need to be sincere in paying taxes, following rules and finally in electing our leaders. Let us stay united breaking the borders created by cast and religion and take a step together that strengthens the heritage and the national integrity. Jai Hind. Satyamevajayate.
