Sub conscious mind

              Mind is something that is virtual. Psychologists divide mind into three systems.

·        The consciousness mind

·         The subconscious mind or the preconscious mind

·         The unconscious mind 

 consciousness mind:

                  The consciousness mind  is your awareness at the present moment. You are aware of something on the outside as well as some specific mental functions happening on the inside. For example, you are aware of your environment, your breathing, or the chair that you are sitting on.

CBM project – Cold Blooded Monster project..Oops..sorry…Coal Bed Methane Project.

This write-up is about something that I came across and made me realize once more that a nation’s welfare is in the hands of every individual in it.

                   Let me first jot down what this CBM project is all about.  Methane is a by product of coal that is released during and after the process of mining.  This gas when extracted effectively can be used for vehicle refueling, electric power generation and in various industries such as fertilizers and in steel production.  There is a demo project currently being implemented in Sudamdih and Moonidih mines of BCCL, at Jharia coal field, Jarkhand.  Cool…isn’t it?!

                   One more great news…A company called Great Eastern Energy Corporation Ltd., based in Gurgaon, Haryana had got license to implement this project in Tamilnadu.  But where?? That is the tragic part..

                    License was provided to this company for extracting CBM through hydraulic fracturing method in Nagapattinam, Thanjavur and Thiruvarur, the regions constituting Kaveri River basin. 

A Journey of sorts

 Away from the noise, away from the heat,
Towards a place for which my heart doth beat,
Wherein the priceless unfound treasure lies,
I go, traversing under starry skies.

On a quest for answers not unraveled
To anyone but to those who have traveled,
Thirsting for that sense of awe and wonder,
I go past many a wall and border.

Seeking some peace and quiet, joy and sunshine,
Amongst flora and fauna, hills and brine,
For miracles and mysteries yet unseen,
I go places where rarely men have been.

And I’m sure this journey of mine, so dear,
Shall remove many a vain hope and fear,
Shall hitherto cleanse my soul, mend my heart,
Bring all that can’t be brought by science or art.

The Edison of India - G. D. Naidu

 Wikipedia has this to say about him:

G. D. Naidu (Gopalaswamy Doraiswamy Naidu (23 March 1893 – 4 January 1974) was an Indian inventor and engineer who is also referred to as the Edison of India.He is credited with the manufacture of the first electric motor in India. His contributions were primarily industrial but also span the fields of electrical, mechanical, agricultural (Hybrid cultivation) and automobile engineering. He had only primary education but excelled as a versatile genius.

 You can read the whole wikipedia article if you wanna know about this man... It says there he started philanthropic work after some years of his life and built colleges for engineering. But there is much more to the story said [which I heard from my parents]... You can call it "the word on the street".

India - The Most Extraordinary Country

This is a video we made a while back on India. It was for the exhibition actually. We put them in CDs and sold them. Now that's over, I uploaded it in youtube :)

Every Life is a Story to Learn From

Sometimes, a person's life is not just another life... It is a footprint, in the sands of time... A footprint that stands for the strength of the human spirit. It's a story, that reminds us that life is neither as simple nor as complex as it seems. Makes us wonder about how in spite of all that's beautiful in this world, we decide to squander it all for reasons too primitive to think about.

The Down-Side of Being Practial

Do you remember how you felt about things like world peace, environmental conservation, corruption and the rest of it when you were like, 5 years old?

When one asks a student in class 7 about corruption, the student will reply with elaborate answers on how wrong it is to give bribes, get bribes, etc. But when one asks a student of class 11, you get surprisingly different answers based more on "practicality". A 11th standard fellow would try to explain to you why corruption is inevitable in India if you want to survive.
