Journey Through Time

Image
  I don’t know who am I, or what am I? Am I a ghost, a memory, or a dream of someone? But what I know for sure is that I’m out of this time. I may be a few thousand years old but I’m free now. Free from all the sorrows and all the sufferings of the world. I have lived more than 100 lives in different forms and across different places in the world. They say when a person dies he/she either goes to heaven or to hell, depending on their sins or their goodwill. I got to tell you it’s not that simple. One more thing you need to know about what happens after you die is that you can go through and revisit all your lives. You can go through your life within seconds, all your memories and experiences. I remember the first time I encountered a near-death experience. I was born in a small village in ancient Egypt, my family was very poor and we belonged to the lower caste or the slaves. Let me just scroll through time once again. Just a minute, found it! My name is Muhammad.   I am a small skinny

FASHION & WASTE: TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN

  This article is for the ones who care about our planet’s future or at least care about their next generation’s life. So if you are not that person I’d suggest don’t waste your precious few minutes reading this article. Now if you are the first person the following facts are definitely going to blow your mind away. Did you know where your old fashioned or so-called donated clothes go? Through this article, I shall take you through a journey of a cloth. Everyone loves dressing up and go shopping for clothes once in a while. We just need an occasion to go shopping whether it be Diwali, Dussehra, Christmas or your birthday for that matter. The point is, clothing is our basic necessity and we’ve just made it our luxury. People have more clothes than they actually need, closets filled with useless clothes. And when these useless clothes come out of the closet to get dumped away, 57% of these end up in a landfill. You would be surprised to know that 35% of the materials right in the supply

"Race for the Vaccine"

        The world is not in a good shape right now, the fear of the virus, and the harm that it has caused is unquestionable. All the eyes are on the vaccine that is in the process of being made up in labs, which no-one knows when it will reach us. It's like the ‘Space Race’, every country wants to be the first to create the vaccine currently, there are more than 100 candidates/industries in this race. The majority of them are in North America constituting almost half of the candidates i.e. 44 followed by China with 17 candidates, almost all of the candidates are of the private sectors. There are a lot of misconceptions regarding the vaccine which through this article I will address. Firstly, before getting to know about the vaccine, I will briefly address the working of the virus which will later help you understand the working of the vaccine.       This virus or for that regard any such virus is very hard to kill because of their very simple design. They are basically little vehi

Unheard Theory about “The Human Existence”

Image
             There’s a famous saying by a German Philosopher called Arthur Schopenhauer, he said that “A person can do what he wills, but he cannot will what he wills”. In this thought he’s trying to question the existence of free will of any individual, we think that we have free will and we can do what we want, but that might not be the case he says. This quote was also used in Netflix’s one of the most highly rated TV Series “Dark”. Because I found this thought so intriguing, through this article I’ll try to convince you the same.  There’s no argument about the technological advancement we have achieved in less than a few decades in the fields of gaming as well as simulation. About 40 years ago in the name of a game we just had “Pong”, which was basically two rectangular boxes and a dot, the rectangular boxes moving vertically passing the dot. But today with the help of computing technology using VR & AR we are able to create our own small virtual realities in video games and m

Life during and after the Covid-19 Pandemic

What would it be called freedom? Our lives before the pandemic or our lives now, in this quarantine? It is a human tendency to always complain and ask for more. First, I used to hear people asking for 6 months vacation twice a year. Well, I don’t know about twice a year, but they are definitely going to get at least 6 months of vacation and still they are complaining. Yes, there are conditions that you cannot leave your house physically but only through your cell phones, but you cannot get it all, isn’t it what’s life about. Another question comes to my mind, was this Pandemic inevitable? And after this pandemic, will there be any possibility of the same circumstances to repeat itself? The answer is ‘Yes’. According to a Netflix documentary about Covid-19 and its origin, China has been conducting tests on animals extracting and finding new pathogens/virus for years now. They do this ahead of time and create vaccines for the virus, so that in future if there’s an outbre

Actions and their reactions

Do we write our own destiny or is everything predestined? This thought might have come across all of our minds at sometime in our life. Today I’m gonna put a little bit of light around this thought or at least try.  Each and everyone of us might have heard about this concept called the “Law of Attraction”, what it says is that ‘You will attract into your life–whether wanted or unwanted–whatever you give your energy, focus, and attention to’. This law can also be seen in our Hindu culture and it is stated as “ Sankalpa se Srishti ” where Sankalpa means ‘Thought’ and Srishti means ‘Manifestation’. A lot of people think it is cliché or maybe they find it very difficult to constantly keep creating a positive attitude towards their life when life keeps giving them shit. Personally, I too find it very difficult and haven’t been successful yet to manifest something into my life no matter how hard I’ve tried, apart from that the visualization practise is such frustrating sometimes.

Racism against North Eastern Indians during COVID-19

The reason people across the globe love India is because of its religious and biological diversity. Here are some facts, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, India is home to 9 major recognized religions and the people here speak more than 22 different languages. This cannot be seen in any country out there, this and many more different factors make India whole as a country and we all are proud of our country. We together as people of India have survived and come across so many problems in past years. We have been fighting wars against rape, equal respect for men and women, homosexual marriages, and many more. When times are hard, and actions are needed we unite and stand together and fight the battles for our people. The opponent at this moment is the pandemic known as COVID-19 and one cannot deny that it is the toughest of them all. But this time I have seen that we are not properly fighting this fight as one country. We all know that the origin of this coronavirus is China an
