The Duality in Life is a String

Let’s visualise the uncanny state of mind wherein we aren’t sure of what we are looking for but feel incomplete and hollow without that search for nothing. Tolerable but constantly bothering pain - like a house fly feeding on an open infected wound on our bodies. An illusion of being incomplete - our life is a jigsaw puzzle and a small piece - a key - of that puzzle is lost, leaving a void behind. Devoting our life to put all mosaic pieces together, we see a tiny empty space that messes with our minds. And like a small child who’s got a beautiful doll having no hands, we as a child just live our lives as is. We often ask ourselves questions - what that missing piece is and where that missing piece is. These questions can’t be answered at that moment. Thus, carrying vexation inside the bags under our eyes, we keep our heads above water, being lost while searching for that one damn piece. a bath with no froth, a pen and a missing cap, shoes with holes but no laces to fill those, a wall

Weed is Consuming the Youth of Dehradun

Weed is Consuming the Youth of Dehradun One chaotic evening, I was going past a secluded street in Patel Nagar, Dehradun. Out of nowhere, an unusual whiff floated about my olfactory sense. And at once several thoughts occurred to me. And one of them was: “Someone is smoking weed”. A person, who knows how burning weed smells, can detect the smoke of weed in the vicinity with ease. Therefore, beware of the place where you smoke. And yes, an under-construction house in a demarcated land isn’t a safe place. However, no stoner ever got hurt at an incomplete building. Weed has become a common term amongst youth in Dehradun. Some weed aficionados of Doon valley say, “Youth, especially college students, wants to be cool, be it from the 1950s or the 2020s. And bad is cool. As a result, if you casually drop weed in a conversation, it can make you cooler by 20%.” I’m not sure about the legitimacy of the said statement. But I’ve seen so-called aficionados. After smoking some weed, they go live on

It's NOT Just an Idea - DTown Robotics

“It’s not just an idea” is a clause that gives the sense of incompleteness, and it also begs the question: then, what is it? It’s a notion. Learning which is taken from the life of the people who worked hard to make their lifeless idea alive. It’s ironic that when an idea is born inside you, it’s dead, but thankfully it generates an unknown energy within you. This energy is equivalent to the worth of the idea in your life, and it’s so powerful that people around you can easily feel the vibes. Only this energy can resuscitates the dead idea, and genius are those people who channelize the energy and let their ideas feed on it ravenously.  Likewise, DTown Robotics , the brainchild of Avinash Pal and Manas Upadhyay , was once an idea that would have remained dead if they hadn’t worked hard and taken a leap of faith.   An idea is just like a seed that has to survive harsh climatic conditions to undergo a metamorphosis and become a sapling. Without a strong determination to survive,

Aipan Art: Red and White Strokes of a Paint Brush

While travelling through picturesque mountains in Uttarakhand , if you ever come across patterns and geometrical shapes drawn in red and white colour at entrance of houses, on walls, and on doorsteps, then undoubtedly you’re in Kumaon . Aipan art, generally drawn in red and white, is a traditional art of Kumaon which is obviously a heavenly place. Through woods, narrow paths leading to hamlets are absolute pleasure to walk on. Being abode to beautiful temples, lakes, mountains, and native people, Kumaon is an inseparable and integral part of Uttarakhand. Being a traditional art, unfortunately Aipan art is dying slowly due to lack of admiration of youth towards the traditional art and no significance of it in youth’s life whatsoever. Like every other traditional art, it’s being forgotten by the native people. Without any major actions, this art won’t exist in the future, and people won’t even know what Aipan art is, as it hasn’t been mentioned profoundly in the history

Heart and Mind

Everyone is a genius. But, if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. I always thought that the author of the quote is Albert Einstein, because I saw this quote written on many pictures, which seemed to be motivating, on Social Medias with the name, “Albert Einstein”, under the quote. After doing some research, I found out that this quote wasn’t said by Albert Einstein. According to a website, which keeps record of quotes and their original authors, hasn’t found enough evidence to confirm that this quote was actually said by Albert Einstein.  Anyway. Right now, it doesn’t matter who said this, as the quote, itself, has the worth to be stand-alone, as this quote perfectly describes the education system of our country where every student is put into the same frame whether they fit in or not. This quote is a jibe at the institutions who turn humans into sad creatures who unwillingly follow instructions for the rest of

A Part of Evolution

When Homo erectus migrated from Africa, they didn’t know that they’d create a huge impact on the evolution. Certainly, this migration wasn’t planned, Homo erectus did what they had to do. They’d been living in Africa before it became hard for them to live there anymore, as they were forced by nature, animals, or other humans to evacuate the place. This small step of leaving a place became a turning point in evolution. Since the first migration, humans keep on migrating to new places for various reasons. The first migration was necessary, for it was about survival. Now, surviving is easy, so humans have other purposes in life like fulfilling desires, following passions, having power, amassing money, acquiring knowledge and so on. We are a part of evolution, and we are constantly changing mentally and biologically. Change happens as things around us change, and we change to adapt to the change around us. Sometimes, we change independently, and this change is vital for us, because the
