Pursuit advances

The philosophers of ancient times often asked the purpose of life. Similar question was asked to me by a friend of mine who is currently persuing medicines. His question was, ‘what’s my purpose in your scheme for advancing civilisation through space exploration?’ The answer of this question was inspired by Mark Rober at that time. I said there’s a talent hidden in some corner of this world who’s not expressing herself because of the disabilities put around her due to her environment. But now I would say something like this, Your task is multi-pronged, by paying tax you are ensuring that India can contribute financial resources in poverty ridden countries where that talent may lie. Because you are pursuing such a noble course you owns the capabilities to bring innovation in your own field which can have far reaching effect in our whole civilization. The purpose of your life doesn’t end here, your genes posses intelligent qualities which when passed on to the next generation can, moreover, be the pioneer of some project that creates the very base for future endeavors.

Materialism

Toady we are living are having comfortable life when compared to earlier generation. But is it really comfortable? We have softer beds for better sleep, we have air conditioners to tackle adverse climatic conditions, fancy clothes to decorate our outer appearance to the world, we have different devices to playing games and relax our minds etc. These are comforts right? They appear quite ironic to me, air conditioners to tackle adverse climate condition, the conditions which we played with. Playing games on game devices to relax which really increase mental stress in long run. These all are part of materialism. The ideology of materialism states that everything including emotions can be represented physically. Now, what do you think, to which extent is it valid? There's a saying that money can't buy happiness, which contradicts this theory. Is it really true money can't buy happiness? I believe there are two types of happiness one which last for short duration and other whi...

Unfortunate

About a week or two back, Chinese foreign minister visited Pakistan for OIC meeting. Where he showed his concern about the islamophobia persisting in Western world. The same west, which pampered Islam while changing it's cores, beliefs and created insecurity for it's own use. That insecurity turned into some really unfortunate events, leading to islamophobia. Now the same thing is being repeated, just the actors are changed now. When there was US spreading extremist ideas and insecurity in the Islamic world, now it's China. Well I'm an Indian and Chinese economy do create insecurity in me, it's also true that the actions China is performing to be the global leader involves shaping future of Islamic nations. The often quoted example of Uighur Muslims in Xinxiang stands firm to be an ironic tag in the face of Chinese. While China worries about the mentality in the west regarding Muslims, they often ignore the mental and physical torture of the people of Xinxiang. I be...

Drugs As Weapons

We all know, how drugs affect our body, how they make us addict, how small-sighted it makes us and so on. These drugs can be helpful for some people inappropriate amount while prescribed by the doctor. But for an average person, it's harmful. Nowadays, it's cool doing drugs; for gen z, it's like the ultimate stage of being cool. But is it cool? I mean, who told you that it's cool doing drugs? Maybe you don't remember because it's a general idea. But who spread this idea, only someone making money out of it and who was it. They were imperialists earlier. Do you know there were wars called opium wars? Are you familiar with them? It's clear from the name that opium was a reason somehow. So, this war was between China and the Britishers. The Chinese market was not open to foreign powers, and they investigate imports via a single port. So, to open a call to them, Britishers smuggled opium in China along with their other goods. They made the Chinese population ad...
