Ambiguous Silence

Silence is the ultimate goal of every journey. Every thing that seems indispensable today will appear temporary tomorrow be it emotions, relations or varied human interactions. Key is to witness them without being bounded by them. Emotional, intellectual & spiritual investments in society including families should be driven by requirements not by devotion,respect, admiration or dedication because being present without being involved is the way to attain peace, stability and freedom.

Witnessing my inner insights

Life can be mean, demanding as well as invigorating and inspiring. When I witness it retrospectively it seems that it is full of choices that we got and manifestation of choices that we made or are making. Isn't it's weird and adventurous; we are what we consciously or sub consciously ought to be. We are successful in living ours' choices regardless of how we perceive it in reality of ours conscious plane.

We homo sapiens enjoy giving meaning to everything-everytime-everywhere, no matter how much self appealing or tempting or rational idea of living like this appears to be ; it cannot embibe essence of life in its entirety. Many a times there exists inexplicable feelings or mystical emotions that can't be categorised using intellect. And more often than not they possess enough strength to capture one's full attention resulting in enticing awe and bewilderment.

We yearn for clarity but land up in confusions; we crave for stability but more often face the uncertainty. Yes this is life driven by possibilities and beyond categorical ideas of success and failures. Life is complete in itself it's our weakness of perception that makes us feel fragmented and unsatiated leading to unsustainable,unquechable and unending desires and deviations.

The Impending Catastrophe: Water Crisis

 Rain in all its multifarious forms engender podium where biotic and abiotic factors of an ecosystem freshen themselves to exhibit theirs natural beauty.

Myriad problems encountered by humanity today are mostly the consequence of our own mismanagement and apathy. Consider for example the impending water crisis around the globe is purely the man made blunder.

Over-exploitation of ground water resources, encroachment of wetlands, poorly conceived sewer treatment plans, irrational urbanization and lack of town planning, altering the natural flow of rivers and above all rampant deforestation. All these has resulted in man manufactured water crisis. Be it prevalence of water borne diseases, rising psychological disorders, amounting insecurity among citizenry; all these are in some way related to inadequate access to safe drinking water.

According to UN data around 700 million people in 43 countries are facing water scarcity. In India cities like Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi, etc are facing water stressed situation. Still those having access to already depleting fresh water resources are hardly aware of such alarming situation and rarely ponder over checking it’s wastage.

The need of the hour is to give sincere thought to SDG 6 of UN 2030 goals. Integrated approach from community participation to governance reforms to sustainable lifestyle is required to achieve tangible results.

Mind’s Conundrum

"Purpose" is what ultimately defines the synchronization of ethos, thoughts and endeavours, it also lay down the blue print upon which one builds the versions of self identity, which in turn interacts with the outside environment to influence it and get influenced by it. Self correction and self-upgradation are the qualitative aspect of “self identity”. Choice is what explains the proclivity towards sticking to set of self construed identities or all together transforming them to bring in the new set of standards. However, no matter how appealing these both attitudes appear in theirs individual realms, too much of adherence to any of them results in “Identity Crisis”. If we dive deep to ponder over What actually is Mind Conflict? It may not be wrong to start with defining it as the situation where there exist multitude of expectations, on the alter of one's potential, struggling for getting appropriate realization. And of course the social grooming of the phenomenon of what is success and failure, have the invigorating impact on how one perceive, what one wants to expect or desire. As is evident, mostly in present scenario, that psychoanalysis is influencing the emotional choices and outcomes in far greater terms than what the reverse impact of emotional deliberations or inspiration have on the intellect. This has somewhat degraded the inner equilibrium of coherence resulting in lack of content, consent and concurrence of thoughts and emotions both within and in the outside world. Sense of security viz. social, intellectual and emotional, have different meaning among individuals and across societies, however, it play a humongous role in driving the “purpose” and engendering “conflicts” and “identities”

Statement on GST rollout

At the midnight stroke of 30th June- 1st July 2017 India's clarion call to usher new era of inclusive,transparent,simplified and effective economy will be heard throughout the nation. 

Goods and Services Tax (GST) will completely overhaul the taxation structure of the country for good, the outgoing taxing infrastructure embodied myriad loopholes which were costing the country dearly not only in form of unaccounted wealth but also in dismantling the confidence of honest taxpayers in the administration's efficacy. 

Those evading the attention of Tax Compliant authorities and carrying out theirs sinister businesses unhindered will find it hard to digest the reality of there being no such avenue in GST regime as in order to claim credit one needs to upload invoice bills and in order to do so one must be registered under GSTN. Moreover, by inclusion of taxation infrastructure the unnecessary expenditures can be effectively tapped. 

To sum up, by maintaining trio equilibrium of democracy, federalism and union India is slowly embracing the path of development unprecedented  in  the world and only the meager outlook will fail to judge the rising superpower of tomorrow. 

वंदे मातरम् 

जय हिंद।

Beginning of Inclusive Economy:GST

As India is inching towards the biggest tax reform since independence there are many struggling hard to come face to face with reality of social inclusion, simplified tax structure and diminishing loopholes facilitating corruption.
Recently a newspaper report enshrined the urgency with which this 'Suit-Boot' lobby of business class is innovating new ways to keep their interests going after roll out of GST from July 1,2017. With the government intentions becoming clear on placing the daily use or basic utility products under 'no or minimum' tax slab the merchants enjoying lion's share finds it is no longer a cake walk to maintain huge profits as the relaxation has to be passed on to the customers.
However, this 'big appetite' class instead of compromising their interests is again inventing tactics to burn pockets of plebeian. It is reported that by reducing the quantity of products by few grams and price according to new tax system they are banking on running their profits unhindered.
Nevertheless, India will become a resilient and transparent economy in days to come and this is just the beginning.

Rekindled India

These are not ordinary times, one may easily sense the tremors recent incidents have caused around the globe be it genocide in middle east in name of faith or surfeiting unemployment globally and above all the threat of climate change encapsulating umpteen disasters in form of natural calamities. 

When the world is preparing itself for abysmal times, India remains exception. Some subliminal and prevaricate efforts have rekindled the plebeian to give up laxity and contrive incessantly to keep up the spirit of hope and devotion alive, and endeavour new era by interlacing spiritualism with rationalism. This will not only quench the human desires but also instill rationale of sustainable approach. 

Although machine age bestowed several presents in form of alleviating manual labour hardships but its unchecked exploitation culminated in bane of myriad problems ranging from health issues to increasing rich-poor gap. To do away with this its necessary to focus on developing village economy and devising new ways so that environment remains unperturbed. This will also generate local employment potential, in addition to checking inflation. 

Time has come when Homo Sapiens should learn harmonizing with their surroundings as far as possible and cut down on theirs' leisure in excess, instead devoting time to unravel their own mind by following the footsteps of great souls born in ancient India who left vast treasure of knowledge to guide future generations.
