Death the End or the Beginning?

Previous Sunday, I lost my best friend. He died in a nearby river. Even though we just came to know each other only a year back, he became one of my best friend immediately.

It seems that certain gifted people will become dearer to our heart without any reason. He came to me as a student for learning computers. Even though he was senior in age( for about 2 years) he never behaved like it. He had a very good grasping power and great general knowledge. And on sunday suddenly i heard the news that, my best friend is died in a river due to accident!

I just understood at that moment, how helpless we are all infront of death. I really could not understand how to react. It seems that i felt terribly unsafe. Even though my mind has understood that he is no more, my heart is not ready to accept it.

Then i started thinking about death.

The first thing i thought is, where we go after death? According to science which i have studied "Energy, Neither be created nor be destroyed". If this is a universal truth, then i think none of ourselves will be dead for ever. The soul which is the energy inside our body, should be released from the body when the body dies. The question is, where the soul will go?

I think no body can answer this question. As i read earlier, where science stops, from there religion and faith take over. And according to almost every religion, the soul either joins the creator of this world(god) or will have a rebirth with another body on earth. is it true? i dont know. May be it is or may be not.

One important question is, if at all our soul remains after our body, does it remember what it(with the body) had done in this world?

I'll try to analyse it in my next discussion.

thank u.

Floppy disk handling?

If we have a pc, naturally we will have a floppy disk drive too. One of my friend brought a floppy disk containing important data from his relatives computer. And it got corrupted and could not be opened in his pc. what to do? because it was an emergency work, he could not complete it in time.

He called on me while i was closing my office and explained the problem. He said he used a brand new floppy which is giving this problem. He suspected that his floppy disk drive may be faulty.

I went to his house with my tools. Checked the floppy. It was indeed a new floppy. But the problem was the way in which it was handled. My friend brought it to his house in a bag of vegetables. A large pineaple was placed nearby the floppy. May be due to the weight of the vegetables, the floppy is damaged.

Fortunately, only the floppy's file allocation table was damaged and i was able to retrive his important data thru my tools.

Later i suggested him to go thru a guide at http://pcproblems.afraid.org/misc/others/floppyguide.html which explains how to handle floppy's carefully. i think if you use a floppy, its a good guide to read once. i have seen people losing their jobs and paying hefty fines because of data loss.

Always keep backup of your important data.

hate politics

Today there was a protest in my place. The bandh was organized by VHP and RSS.

There were about 50 men in the protest rally. Even though it was a VHP and RSS rally, I noticed that they were all from local BJP party. They had large banners and shouting Anti pakistan slogans.

This rally was called because of a bomb blast in varanasi. There were sufficient security arrangements and enough police force was in place. It was a peaceful rally.

Even though the rally was peaceful, i strongly felt that it was anti muslim rally conducted by sangh parivar. I really could not understand what was the necessity for the rally. By their slogans, they were clearly targetting the muslim people.

I know that many of the muslims are responsible for anti indian activities. But what they dont know is "Becausethey do something wrong, other innocent muslims will suffer". I strongly feel that muslim fundametalists are more dangerous to muslims themselves.

Today there is an environment where almost every Hindu, Sikh or Christian will see suspeciously on their neighbouring muslims. Muslim leaders are not doing enough to prevent this from happening. Instead, some of the leaders are encouraging muslim fundamentalists.

I saw a minister of uttar pradesh announcing a prize money of 50 crore rupees to the person who kills the cartoonist who wrote a cartoon of mohammed paigambar. This is real tragedy. In a democratic country, a democratically elected person is not expected to act like terrorist. And a bigger tragedy is he is roaming freely with his minister
ship intact.

I think that the minister should be resigned and prosecuted under the law.

bye for now.

un ethical relationships

hi friends,

I am just amazed to see and hear how relationships grow in this fast paced world.

These relationships are beyond all restrictions. They really do not care about money, social status,blood relations, politics etc.

Some days ago, one of my friend was telling that these type of so called unethical relationships are almost universal. He had seen them very nearly. One of his relatives, had these type of relationships and it turned out to be hostile. One day he called on his girl to make love in his house. And Him and his wife along with his another friend, made physical relationship with the girl.

Now the girl with her parents lodged a complaint stating that all these people have gang raped her. According to my friend, the people who did it had the consensus of the girl. God only knows what is truth and what is not!

If this is an incident belonging to lower level society, We hear a lot of high level scandals too. Zee tv people have done a sting operation on wife swapping in Mumbai. Star News caught a famous bollywood actress in a sting operation for high level prostitution.

And nowadays we hear a lot of a scandal belonging to Uttar pradesh's king maker Amar Singh too. His conversations with many bollywood actresses are seems to be very sexually oriented ones. A cd containing his conversations is already with almost every tv stations. Its called "Amar Singh ki Amar Kahani". Already famous bollywood sex bomb bipasha basu is explaining that the voice in the tape is not hers.

I think its almost impossible to stop adultry in any society. It is like our breath which is hidden inside our flesh and blood. Without it, human world may not exist.

Strange World

I will be recording here the strange news which i hear and see in every day life.

Actually i myself is a strange person. My mood, patience, anger everything seems to be strange.

Some times i think that the very existance of world is a strange happening. Where did we come from? At least where did the first life on earth came from? Really knowbody can answer these questions.

We believe in god, we discuss a lot of god, we hate and love each other in the name of god.

I think "is it really necessary to believe in god?". I always say YES to myself. Atleast until we get something solid to believe regarding our origin from science, its better we believe in god.

By the way, i'm not a guru. I am not even a firm believer of god. Some times i really felt that there is no god. If god is existing somewhere, its only in our imagination and belief.

But still I think it is better to believe in god. I really dont mind which god you believe or which cast you follow. The "God" really helps to bring peace and mental stability for me and hopefully to you.

There are so many people who has written plenty of books on god and related subjects. But I think my analysis will be different because i am strange!

see you next time..
