Theory of Adjustments n Compromises….


Most of the times we try to adjust ourselves according to the situation. Life is ok even though I’m not getting what I wish to but what I’m getting is enough for now. There is a global recession the job market is not good even if the present job is like a rut but let me cling to it till the bad days are over and many more thought comes to us. Some of us just don’t want to get out of the comfort zone… It may sound weird but just giving you few examples.


I don’t know who has done these experiments but it’s very interesting. So I thought I should pen it down…

A frog was kept in a vessel and fire was kept under the vessel. The water in the container was almost full just a leap below for the frog to jump out of it. The frog swam merrily. After some time when the mercury rose slowly the frog tried to adjust with the situation. It was less playful with time and temperature. After some time the frog was just immobile at one of the corner of the container and trying its best to adjust with the rising temperature after some time with rising temperature the frog became so week and tired that it could hardly leap out of the water. Finally this poor frog died for the sake of this experiment.


Another frog was taken and put in this container with hot water… Our scientist must be cruel it seems. Please do not share this article to Menaka Gandhi or PETA or else they may sue our scientist for cruelty to animals. You must be wondering what happened to the second frog..Ok let me get back to the topic. This frog just simply sprang out of the water just seconds after it was put into the container.


Unfortunately the first frog is dead otherwise we could have taught him this survival trick…. It died but has given all those frogs among us just to think about our life and the compromises and adjustments we do with the changing situations in our life. I regret not getting this theory few years back in my life. Anyways better late than never. I have been adjusting to situations and compromising with life since long time. But now I have decided to jump out of the container and what about you ????? Still thinking it seems……

Destiny!!!!

Do you believe in destiny????? Are marriages made in heaven? ??????Who maintains the entire data base????? Don’t want to hurt anyone’s sentiments … but how come God manages all these things and who has created God ?

Recently I was watching a hindi movie where God has given a common man the charges of Godship to a common man who has failed in all his ventures in his life. This common man got screwed up listening to all the prayers, temple bells, church bells & the prayers at the Mosques, Gurudwaras n all other religion . This common man gave a blanket approval to all the prayers of that day. … and after that day he saw what kind of blunder he had done by this blanket approval……

Most of the times we decide and write our destiny… questions like why it happened? Why me ? How it happened? Will always bother us but most of the times we are mostly responsible for this whether we accept it or not..

There are things like natural calamities, accidents etc that are not in our control…. But at least we can control the thing that we have in our control… Can we control life? Here comes the dichotomy of destiny…….. Yes we can control some part of our life & no we can not control our life.. You must be wondering what crap you are reading ? … What made you to read such crap? There is nothing called serendipity in this world. You are here because it was written somewhere that you will read this page. This was just to give you a real life example of destiny.

Luck by chance

Do you believe in luck by chance ?????? Does it happen in any one‘s life………

Luck by chance is a nice movie which portrays the life of a person who has come to the city of dreams i.e. Mumbai to try his luck………… it also shows about some other who just got deprived of the 1% of luck and struggled as TV star or theatre artiste. The over all image of the movie is just a rosy picture of Bollywood though they have shown some dark side of it…………

I’m here not to write any critic on the movie nor do I have the intension to do it. Do you think any retired heroine will get impressed by the dialogue “I’m here because of you “ etc… life is not that easy … I’m a great fan of Farhan after seeing his directorial debut “Dil Chahta hai “ & his acting in “Rock on”. These are the movie where people like me can identify themselves. These movies are just very close to my heart.

I’m writing all these…… may be crap for some of you who come across this article. I was very closely associated with someone who was a struggling actor who came from a small city to this city of dreams to full fill his dreams. He is a one of the handsome and smartest guy from his home town. He tried his networking skills and increased his contacts day by day… I still remember the day when this guy got a phone call from a famous director personally for a lead opposite to some famous actor just like Luck by chance scene. I just remember the glow in his eyes after the telephonic conversation… My eyes were full in tears when I was watching Om Shanti Om when struggling Shahrukh was saying Sreyash Talpade on the bridge about he would have his posters across the city…the same dialogue have been said by him to me few years back………. some how the 1% luck was not in his side and it did not materialize .. Then he got some cameo roles in some other big banners but he was very optimistic that he would get some big lead role in some big banner. Their community believes in the thought that “We may break but we should not bend”. That thought made him not to compromise for any dirty things that are happening in Bollywood and he returned back to his home town. But his struggle will never go in vain. I wish him luck, I still have confidence in him he will do it one day definitely. I will definitely see him in big screen and see his posters across the cities.I always quote him the famous words by Richard Bach “You are never given a wish without being given the power to fulfill it …….. You may have to work hard on it however………………

Vibes

It’s amazing to understand the vibes. Everyday we come across different kinds of people in our day today life. We just give a second look at the beautiful girls or the handsome hunk that we come across. But sometimes we come across few people who may not be very attractive in their looks but we just feel like talking to them and know about them.

The person may be the rick driver or may be some vendor on the streets of just any person waiting at the bus stop or roaming in the mall. It’s our soul or our inner self that draws the attention. I was just thinking what made us to do so. Why does it happen? Why does some thing tells us inside and control our other thoughts and draws our attention?

It’s the language of the soul. Its called the vibes. From our daily karma or work we create an invisible aura around us which the souls only can recognize. Its both positive and negative as well as we meet some people and we don’t feel like talking to them.

I was just thinking how we can develop the positive vibes in ourselves. The first thing that come to my mind is Meditation. Meditation creates a vibrations in our body which does make some sound which only the souls can recognize. Then chanting mantras. Yogas even exercising or even a morning or evening walk can create some positive energy in our lives. I remember I was travelling back from Nanded to Mumabai. A lady in her sixties was sitting in the front berth. By just seeing her radiant eyes I asked her “Mam are you practicing some meditation? “ She just smiled and gave me her card. She is a senior member of some big meditation organization. Also insisted me to join her organization.

Last year one of my colleagues and had gone to Pune for some official visit and my hotel was booked by our office. I insisted on changing the room. My friend got irritated as the hotel was almost full. Finally they allotted us some other room. My friend was little upset with my behavior. He had a quest to know the reason. He used his tip influence to one hotel boy. Finally the hotel boy said that their was a suicide few years back in the previous room.
