Acceptance

Acceptance is an important trait which must be a part of one's personality. It determines the broadness of a person.

Everyone must accept everything. It doesn't matter how you take things, but you must take them in. That's what really matters. If we do not accept things, then we are confining ourselves in a shell; we are surrounding ourselves within some boundaries. And these boundaries, they are unreal, fake and non-existent. They are only our reluctance towards the thought of acceptance, thus narrowing the spectrum of our knowledge and making us unable to see and comprehend things as good or bad beyond a certain limit. It not only affects our social personality but also hinders our growth personally, as we put up resistance for new thoughts and ideas, making us an ignorant lesser mortal.

We must know everything, let it be anything. We must be welcoming for thoughts, ideas, news, knowledge, teachings and any such thing, so that we can contemplate them and then know what is good and what is bad for us, thus putting our wisdom to good use and becoming a little wiser everytime we accept something.

    वो जिनके कंधों पर ज़िम्मेदारी है तुम्हें बेहतर देखने की , वो तुम्हें बेहतरीन देखना चाहते हैं ।

Art, Artist, and Are They?

“The role of the artist is to ask questions, not answer them.” ―  Anton Pavlovich Chekhov The democratization of technology has made tools once exclusive to professionals now accessible to everyone. Anyone with a smartphone and an internet connection can become a photographer, a musician, a painter, an artist, an author, or a poet. The barriers to entry have been dismantled so thoroughly that the true essence of being an artist has been diluted to the point of absurdity. Gone are the days when art required peer review and validation by credible authorities. When people understood the concept of being rejected and accepted the idea of not being good enough. The self-serve platforms have effectively obliterated the need for hardened training to excel in any craft. Instead, we're drowning in a sea of self-proclaimed artists who possess the tools but lack the discipline and skill honed through years of dedication and critique. The result? An overwhelming flood of what can only be descr...

Welcome to the Machine

  “One day everything will be well, that is our hope. Everything's fine today, that is our illusion” ―  Voltaire Perhaps one of the most famous thought experiment ever devised is the trolley problem. It is said to be the classic representation of the clash between the two schools of thought in the western philosophy  - utilitarianism and deontology. The problem states that a trolley is running down a track and on the track there are five people tied up and unable to move. There is an alternative track on which a single person is tied up. You are standing at a lever that can change the direction of the trolley to the alternate track. Your choices are to either do nothing and let the trolley kill five people or to pull the lever and divert the trolley where it kills one person. The dilemma here is that which is the more ethical option? Upon facing the situation, I assume, many people would choose to pull the lever. I myself might end up doing the same. However, t here are m...

News - facts or story?

“The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.” ―  Thomas Jefferson In the times that we suppose are unprecedented, it is not the ubiquitously luring dangers of the pandemic that scare me the most but it is the news; something that we are more exposed to than the disease itself.  Open any news channel at any time (although maybe when they are actually reporting a piece of news and not discussing celebrity hairstyles or hooking up actresses with cricketers or reporting an Instagram video to be the best thing on the internet today) or read any column of any newspaper and you will find the tone of the report to resound that of someone telling their plight or sharing their joy or venting their anger or ranting their frustration. This may not seem a much of a problem as doing all that is the job of a reporter but it is a huge problem. And that is so because when a news report sounds like a story, it means that the reporter has...
