Save Indian Wildlife..

India is growing day by day in the name of Economy but on the other hand loosing its Natural resources, Wildlife and Environment. This is due to lack of awareness in people here or rather I should say the carelessness of Indian Government towards the importance of wildlife and healthy environment. Natural habitats for the wild animals are shrinking or being demolished, no place left here for wild animals and the existing ones are fighting for their existence. Sanctuaries and National Reserved Parks are under the threat of poachers and land mafias. Those who are really working to protect the tiger and other wild lives are being threatened by the poachers and even by some government officials and politicians. Few NGO and private wildlife welfare societies run campaigns to save the Indian National Animal Tiger, but are not successful to create that much impact because people here do not bother at all and if they do then this situation would not have occurred. We all always talk about numbers and figures, no one here wants to come out and shout in the name of protection of wildlife and environment or better I should say to protect our own life. If we can remember A-Z and know its importance then why do we cant remember Life Chain chapter and its importance in our life, which we all must have read during our primary education. Every living thing present in the world today is connected with each other and creating a chain of life, if any link is broken the whole chain will get disturbed. So we should protect each and every link in order to maintain the cycle or chain of life.

Please spread awareness among the people and help in protecting Indian wildlife. It is time to take action.. so stop talking and start doing....

Tabla.. an amazing musical instrument!

I have been listening to the beats of this amazing, tremendous and magical musical instrument since my childhood... just listened to it.. never tried my hands on.. that is because of my father.. he plays so well ki i just love listening to it.. i always feared of playing tabla in his presence, i couldn't ever dare to do so.. so whenever he wasn't there.. i did some dham-dham!! dhad-dhad!!.. i don't know what stopped me learning tabla from him.. perhaps the fear of failure!.. well that's a different thing.. let's talk about tabla.. ya i just love the sound of "Thaap"(the beat).. there are lots of "Taals" in tabla.. like "do taal", "teen taal"... love specially "tirkit", "na-dhin-dhin-na".. amazing stuff!

you can get some more info about tabla and its taal from here...

Spot! the Not..

some times it happens to me.. it is quite personal.. but i think that i should share it.. k.. so it all starts with 'Shunya'[lang: Sanskrit] 'the Zero'.. my mind goes all blank.. absolute absence of thought.. and i start gaining some pleasure!.. but i get irritated as well.. because i am not able to find the source of pleasure.. so i start searching for same.. In the process i see some dark, blurred, hazy kinda spot!.. i start concentrating on the center to see what is it exactly... suddenly a ring around it, starts building up.. and as i try to concentrate more on the center, the ring shines more and more.. it gives me immense pleasure.. but again i feel unanswered.. this is bizarre!.. it is all happening with my eyes closed... suddenly i start visualizing my recent activities and reviewing my conversations with people, whom i met recently... i see a lot of people around me.. doing all crap they could! like chattering, poking me!.. i see myself as a sick.. suffering from an unknown disease... some faces around me try to console me..preach me.. they look a bit familiar to me.. but i am not looking at them at all... i am seeing something else.. yes.. @ the spot!! the same bit dark, hazy spot!! mentioned few lines above.. due to my ignorance.. people start leaving me behind.. my concentration gets disturbed as i heard some murmuring about the Spot! from someone... he says to someone, there is no existence of such spot!... how dare he?.. i said to myself.. i have seen it so many times.. even i felt it inside me.. who the hell is he to say so?.. somebody beside me, said.. he is the one who made a research on the spot! for more than 2 years.. he had a team of scholars and he even organized a worldwide survey to find out the existence of the spot!.. so did he find anything?.. what was the result of that worldwide survey? i asked.. nothing! he and his team of scholars didn't find any spot! so they have declared there is no such spot! exists.. he said.. what the hell are you talking.. cut the crap! you fool.. after 2 years of a crap research.. and a shitty survey.. he concluded that there is no such spot!.. let me tell you.. i am 25 now, and i see as well as feel that spot! inside me from the past 10 years.. no one can say rubbish to this.. and those who raise question about the existence of the spot!.. are senseless dysfunctional!!.. one can't define pleasure based on some shitty report.. "the pleasure is true while the origin is always a mystery!!".. i guess, i have said it all.. but still if it is not enough.. take a look at here..
