एक अजीब सा एहसास , कौन है वो!!
एक शान्ति , एक आनंद , हाँ मे जनता हूँ ,
कुछ लोग है , जिनकी दुआओ पर मैं जीता हूँ ,
लेकिन ये कोई और था शायद ,
कोई अनजाना , लेकिन अब उसको अनजाना कहना भी ग़लत होगा ,
फ़िर भी एक जिज्ञासा , कौन है वो अनजाना!!
कही ये मेरी खामख्याली तो नहीं ,
हाँ मैं जागते हुए ख्वाब देखता हूँ ,
कुछ ख्वाब यथार्थ मे बदल पाता हूँ ,
लेकिन आज एसा लग रहा है कि , मै ख्वाबों मे जाग रहा हूँ ,
किसी शायर ने कहा है कि , ख्वाबों मे जागते रहना बेख्वाब सोने से तो अच्छा है.

ऊहापोह
हर सुबह की एक शाम होती है ,
अगर धूप होती है तो छाँव भी होती है ,
हर रात के बाद एक सुबह होती है ,
लेकिन ये कैसी रात है , जिसकी सुबह आती ही नही ,
मैंने तो अपनी आखें बंद भी नहीं की , एक सुबह के आने के इंतजार मै ,
अब एसा लगाने लगा है कि, शायद मै पृथ्वी पर हूँ ही नहीं ,
किसी अनदेखे अनजाने ग्रह पर सूरज की रौशनी की तलाश मे भटक रहा हूँ, शायद जिसका कोई सूरज है ही नहीं,
या फ़िर परिवर्तन आ गया है, सूरज पीले रंग को छोड़कर काला हो गया है,
अगर ये सत्य है तो कैसा है ये परिवर्तन, मानव जीवन के विकास के लिए या विनाश के लिए?
अगर धूप होती है तो छाँव भी होती है ,
हर रात के बाद एक सुबह होती है ,

Friendship
I was reading one of my friend's blog, who is senior to me, a good writer, versatile personality, an engineer, Administrative officer, CEO; i.e. a broad exposure in his life.Here are few lines from his blog.
"Friendships, if they are honest, are not a zero sum game; in relations people win or lose in togetherness. Sometimes they have the scope to blame external factors for barriers; at times it is the false pride, lack of self belief or playing extra safe."
I must appreciate this, a complete definition of relationship. Taking a chance to elaborate this. Hope each one of us agrees that 'win or lose in togetherness'. An important aspect of relationship - 'togetherness', this requires absence of ego, self believe and not getting effected by external factors. but why people play extra safe? may be they donot want to lose if they see a chance of losing, its like share market buy it when it is up, sale it as it starts going down, Or they have a high survival instinct. A base meaning of survival instinct is: The instinct for survival, which translates into fear of death; or one cannot live. it can be translated further into many things, without those someone cannot survive, like food, power, position, social recognition, some followers etc.
This is true, if we see mankind as a species. If we go back to history we can see many such a examples like, fight between different races, Spanish empire, Nazi concentration camps, these days terrorism etc. There are also few examples of togetherness; Gandhi's movement, Nelson mondela, State of Israel ; for purpose of peace and survival of peace and humanity along with freedom and creativity, art and culture.
You may be wondering, how above historical examples is related with this topic 'friendship' or survival instinct. I would just say its all about a desire of an individual or a group. When the desire or ambition come on priority to the human values.
Lets take some example, my mom is hospitalized, money is required and i can get the money by disposing my car, but what if i cannot live without it? then i 'll feel like loosing due to togetherness, there can be many more thing (like 'car'), without those one cannot live. This survival instinct make people to play 'Extra Safe' however every individual has it at different level.
The feeling of togetherness survives unconditionally only when people live for human values ( My senior wrote as 'If they are honest', in his blog ), and keep them at highest priority over personal priorities or ambitions.

कबीर के दोहे
जब मैं था तब हरि नहीं, अब हरि हैं मैं नाहिं।
प्रेम गली अति सॉंकरी, तामें दो न समाहिं।।
जिन ढूँढा तिन पाइयॉं, गहरे पानी पैठ।
मैं बपुरा बूडन डरा, रहा किनारे बैठ।।
बुरा जो देखन मैं चला, बुरा न मिलिया कोय।
जो दिल खोजा अपना, मुझ-सा बुरा न कोय।।
सॉंच बराबर तप नहीं, झूठ बराबर पाप।
जाके हिरदै सॉंच है, ताके हिरदै आप।।
अति का भला न बोलना, अति की भली न चूप।
अति का भला न बरसना, अति की भली न धूप।।
काल्ह करै सो आज कर, आज करै सो अब्ब।
पल में परलै होयगी, बहुरि करैगो कब्ब।
निंदक नियरे राखिए, ऑंगन कुटी छवाय।
बिन पानी, साबुन बिना, निर्मल करे सुभाय।।
जाति न पूछो साधु की, पूछ लीजिए ग्यान।
मोल करो तलवार के, पड़ा रहन दो म्यान।।
पाहन पुजे तो हरि मिले, तो मैं पूजूँ पहाड़।
ताते या चाकी भली, पीस खाए संसार।।
कॉंकर पाथर जोरि कै, मस्जिद लई बनाय।
ता चढ़ मुल्ला बॉंग दे, बहिरा हुआ खुदाए।।
प्रेम गली अति सॉंकरी, तामें दो न समाहिं।।
जिन ढूँढा तिन पाइयॉं, गहरे पानी पैठ।

Book Review - 7 Day Weekend
Recently i have finished this book. Seams to be written
the 'ideal case studies', i.e. if we sit in Semco's
cafeteria, we can find some critics too i mean Semco
may not be as ideal as written. But its worth.
Few points which i like,
1. Importance of collective gut feel of all the people
involved in any project(CEO to office boy).
2. Lot more Stress on Integrity and ethics.
3. Peer pressure make people working, rather then
military control( managers are driving ).
4. Environment is being created and maintained by
appropriate recruitment and mentoring process.
5. Lots of stress on Atomic growth i.e. Natural
growth.
[ framework is being evolved itself by some basic
rules Ricardo call it as 'Survival Manual', one good
thing is not a single person is a HERO, its all about
the team ]
6. Work environment, is also important, people are
happy to come at work, they love their work.
7. Success is not only money, it is customer
satisfaction, money and employee satisfaction.
8. Mutual trust, the most important thing is trust
between employee and employer.
9. Stress on self management.
Thats what i remember for now.
Ricado has one good point of view, 'anthropological'
and his tendency to look at 'Tribes' ( mostly to
understand naturally self sustainable, self managed system)
One more good point is defining a personality.
IQ+EQ+SQ-EGO ; Mostly we do the same subconsciously, A wonderful description.
(I- Intellect, E- Emotional, S- Spiritual)
This was all about the book says, my understanding in a nut shell is, an organizational growth is sustainable only iff they have some common denominator ( Ricardo says as Survival Manual ) like integrity, ethics, honesty, in other words 'Organization's Culture and Values'. There is lot more stress on Organizational Health these days, i strongly believe that a common denominator solve this purpose, no one has to perform any action to improve and sustain 'Organization's Health'.
Semco is growing @40% per anum, with almost no iteration, business has grown in many dimension.
A Live example of true democratic environment. Individuality, Independence , Respect is sustained irrespective of designation.

It stays fresh only for a while
I have already written about the interactions which survive despite lack of proximity. This is about how these bloom and add to our happiness.
There are a few attributes of an interaction - mutual respect, feelings, affection and responsibility.
Mutual respect is an essential attribute of an interaction. No interaction can survive for long in a free environment without it. Then we have feelings. Feelings come in different shapes and sizes. Sometime they are gut feelings, sometime the voice from within and sometimes in the form of love. With feelings we start developing affection over time. And that leads us to become responsible for the other person.
A joyful interaction can progress in different manner as well. For example you are officially responsible for someone ( say as a tutor ). That may lead to feelings and affection and mutual respect. Another example is where feelings commence an interaction. You meet someone and have some feelings. That may lead to affection and mutual respect and becoming responsible for that person.
A lasting interaction, though, requires mutual respect or mutual feelings. Any one sided attempt to have a relationship due to affection or responsibility alone is futile. As futile as cutting a branch of a tree and keeping it in water to keep it fresh. It stays fresh for a while. It stays fresh only for a while.

21st century :: Nirmal Anand, Latest Trends, New definitions.
In 21st century, there are new definitions of ‘Nirmal Anand’ , some ‘latest trends’ and Generic ‘New definitions’. Few are as follows.
1. Sit in a bar or at some place drink as much as possible.
2. Go to disc and dance till you get tired.
3. Look for one more boyfriend / girlfriend (sometime it is called as genuine log).
4. Ignore human factors, Get busy with own things.
5. What are you doing this weekend, should be your first question.
6. The person sitting next at the moment is your BEST friend at that moment; forget it once he/she is getting away.
7. Friday fun and Saturday night concept must be your life style.
8. You must listen, and honor them if someone calls you as ‘Bindaas’; this is the biggest honor to you.
If you believe above 8 points then it is called ‘Modern’ i.e. ‘Being Non Conservative’ i.e. ‘Advance’.
What is not considered as ‘Niramal Anand’.
1. Following up your hobbies.
2. Reading some books.
3. Listening to music.
4. Talking to friends and family.
5. Watching movie.
Above four points requires a non toxic mind and one need to sit in house. But if you do this then it ‘ll become conservative approach i.e. ‘Non Modern’.
Definitions:
Spending the life Vs Living the life:
One of my friend has came across this concept, “If you are thinking of someone and contributing to his / her objectives that means you are spending the life, in other way you are living the life i.e. other person is spending on you”.
Focus of life:
Similar to above, A Human factor should not be considered as “Focus”, a focused life is concentrating only on career, money, materials.
Personal Space:
This is very important concept; it is there in Indian philosophy since long time. It is being used to improve one’s personality, spirituality and skills.
The new concept is “Let me do whatever I want” i.e. kick / ignore the people or human factors around.
By heart, close to heart:
Some concept or someone praise you, or give you the logic / reasoning then it is by heart or close to heart.
Being Independent:
The absolute independence means minimal dependencies on the materials and people i.e. as minimum it is one is more independent.
The latest concept is “I am financially independent”, I can do what I want.
Author’s comment:
I ‘ll keep adding these definitions as I come across.
Now I have a question to the readers,
Are being Modern gives “The Happiness”.
Are these definitions lead you to peace of mind? Or it is just satisfies one’s ego and outer mind?
Open for discussion, feel free to mail me your thoughts.
