Madhushala

1. छोटे से जीवन में कितना,

प्यार करून पी लूं हाला,

आने के ही साथ जगत में,

कहलाया जाने वाला;

स्वागत के ही साथ विदा की,

होती देखि तैयारी;

बंद लगी होने खुलती ही,

मेरी जीवन मधुशाला!!

2. सजें ना मस्जिद और नमाजी,

कहता है अल्लाताला,

सज धज कर पर साकी आता,

बन ठन कर पीने वाला;

शेख कहाँ तुलना हो सकती,

मस्जिद की मदिरालय से;

चिर विधवा है मस्जिद तेरी,

सदा सुहागिन मधुशाला!!

3. यदि इन अधरों से दो बातें,

प्रेम भरी करती हाला,

यदि इन खाली हांथो का जी,

पल भर बहलाता प्याला;

हानि बता जग तेरी क्या है,

व्यर्थ मुझे बदनाम न कर;

मेरे टूटे दिल का है बस,

एक खिलौना मधुशाला!!

4. जितनी दिल की गहराई हो,

उतना गहरा है प्याला,

जितनी दिल की मादकता हो,

उतनी मादक है हाला;

जितनी उर की भावुकता हो,

उतना सुन्दर साकी है;

जितना ही जो रसिक, उसे है,

उतनी रसमय मधुशाला !!

5. मुसलमान और हिन्दू हैं दो,

एक मगर उनका प्याला,

एक मगर उनका मदिरालय,

एक मगर उनकी हाला;

दोनों होते एक ना जब तक,

मंदिर मस्जिद में जाते;

बैर बढाते मंदिर मस्जिद,

मेल कराती मधुशाला!!

6. मै मदिरालय के अन्दर हूँ,

मेरे हांथों में प्याला,

प्याले में मदिरालय बिम्बित,

करनेवाली है हाला;

इस उधेड़बुन में ही मेरा,

सारा जीवन बीत गया;

मै मधुशाला के अन्दर,

या मेरे अन्दर मधुशाला !!

7. कोई भी शेख नमाजी,

या पंडित जपता माला,

बैर भाव चाहे जितना भी हो,

मदिरा से रखने वाला;

एक बार बस मधुशाला के,

आगे से होकर निकले;

देखूं कैसे थाम न लेती,

दामन उसका मधुशाला!!

Mind blowing, awesome, amazing or what should I say “Maza aa gaya” or what?? You suggest something. I don’t find any better word than that. Don’t get startled. Yes, this is the Headline on the Main page of today’s newspaper in Times Of India (Mind me the tag of the newspaper has nothing to do with it because all are same. Some are more and some are less that is the only difference). How disgusting!!!!


Do not worry I am not going to write the whole “disgusting” matter as you people have already had it with your morning tea (Because these are the things that attract “us” most. Hahahaha).

Sometimes I don’t find any single article worth reading. Full of advertisements, Blasts, Kidnapping, Maoist attack and the very great Politics (but this has to be there, no problem with this. Because different people have different taste. Some like to know the recent movie, some about sports and some would love to read editorials. So this entirely depends on your choice). Like you can see today’s front page was like this (Including some death and Taliban news) and last page was fully devoted to Endeavour (Advertisement of a car company).


I hardly go through newspapers. I check news on the site. But today as I picked up the paper my first word was “again same”.

I wanted to right something else but landed up here. Sorry to my reader as I always make you people sad through my posts. But I can not help. My mind stormed so I put these words here.

But hey they too have to earn their bread and butter and their survivals depend on us. But if they are so much on with these news then there are other pages also. You do any drama with these pages, who cares. But at least let the front page keep neat and clean.


But we are no where to do any better in this matter. We are just mango people. We have to see, watch, hear and act according to what the system says, what the system follows.If no then do something because just reading the blog would not suffice. (Don’t mind thoda zada heavy ho gaya).

At least make the front page inquisitive, if possible motivational, some discoveries, but don’t try to make it attractive by these means.

Finally thanks to the news that gave me some matter to write about.

I can not think anymore. I am not feeling well as I have got flu.

Bluntly Speaking

How does she manage with four boys (or rather four boyfriends)??
And then discussion starts and it keeps going.

This is the most otiose illness. We are very fluent in speaking and the very idea of about what we are speaking is of no use or even unknown or sometimes may be harmful.

I see people who have the habit of maledicting other people, their relationship, communities, their religions, cricket players, big stars and each and everything that come across as this becomes a habit for them. Their purpose ain’t to harm anyone but simply to make themselves happy or to drive the crowd.

People always comment on other’s religion. Why Burqa is necessary for women in Islam? Why Jihad is so important (may be good or bad, but you are not the one to decide that)? Who we are to justify what is correct and what is incorrect if we do not know the very meaning of Islam (same for other religion)?
Like sea, river, pond and lake all have different names but the truth is that all contain water. The same holds true for the religions. They are different by names only but one thing that is common is that all contain Truth. (So let us don’t play with the purity of the religions)

Words do not stop here. We speak inadvertently about anything. We make comment on rich and poor. Everybody has his own way of living. How can two people have the same value if they are born differently? Every one is born individual. And every one has to play his role in his life. That is why God has created this beautiful thing called Human. There is a disparity among different strata of family. So obviously their culture, customs, their dressing style, their etiquette, and their behavior would be different. So let them enjoy their own life in their ways.

The same but funny thing happens in cricket also. When someone like Harbhajan Singh is playing and is not able to hit comfortably then those watching the match start another cricket. There may be the case that they do not know that this is an one day or a test, may not even know that he is a bowler or a batsman, the status of the match, about pitch condition and who is on the bowling side. But they have to speak because they can not remain quiet. And this pesters the person sitting beside him.

And if you try to pull them off then their reply will be “We are independent people in independent country. We can say and do anything we want”. This is true but please do not make such comments at the cost of others. This may dissipate someone’s relationship or even destroy it.

So get out of this futile illness before you destroy someone’s relationship or livings.

LUCK

Yesterday I was chatting with my old school friend and suddenly this discussion comes up in our conversation. I asked her about future plans and she tweeted like “it all depends on luck and faith”. Many people agree with this saying because if something happens bad or something that we do not expect then we start blaming like “Luck was not with us” instead of introspecting ourselves. But I have a simple full from of luck

L: Labor
U: Under
C: Correct
K: Knowledge

So now by getting this four letter word you would have realized where I want to take you?

There are many examples but I will take a practical one to fortify my side.

If you are an IIT aspirant and working hard like days and nights but you are not going through proper channel or you do not know the pattern of the exam or whatever the reason may be and at the end of the day you fail and then you start charging on luck.

I have a perfect example of a guy who got through a great company by working hard. So working hard is the primary key towards success. You can find success without hard work only in dictionary. So luck has no place in your life. Life will go where you want to take it. It is all in YOUR hands.

“Eliminating luck is life”
Try to eliminate luck from your life as much as possible. If you rely more on luck you are surely going to fall into trap.

Today luck was with me. I had not written my journal and the lab was made off due to electricity failure. So I was lucky that I didn’t get caught. Hahahaha

But I have the flip side also which baffles me sometime.

Like everyone knows that Telephone came into existence in March 1876 and was invented by Grahm Bell but only some know that at the same day Jagadish Chandra Bose also submitted his paper but due to some maintenance work which was going on that same auditorium his papers remained lying under the table. And his research could not bring a revolution in the Electromagnetic world.
May be here his luck was not with him because he could not do more than what he had done.
So take off the luck factor from your life and start facing the problems. You will succeed if you have faith in yourself.

Sach Ka Samna

Hahahaha Interesting………

As I switch on my laptop and play this video a stirring question pops up on the screen.

Would you ever cheat on your wife if she never knows about it?
What would he say: YES or NO? A tough call. But after making his mind he answers the question.
And after that he does not know what to do whether he shall smile or grin or remain quiet. Then waits for Rajeev (the host of the show) to say “Aaiye dekhte hai polygraph test kya kahta hai”. And during that time you can see the faces of his family persons who have come a long way to know about their INNOCENT child. If it comes right then again the same situation: a smile (because he is winning the cash) or to keep his head down (because he is losing respect in front of his wife and family). He even does not know that a little mistake can destroy his childhood friendship (case of Vinod Kambli) , can ruin the husband wife relationship, can dilapidate the kinship between son and father. We can do anything for money. We do not care about what can happen tomorrow for this today’s effect. And for this we simply and completely have to rely upon Polygraph machine, which may not be true at all times.

I was recently watching this chat show and this idea of writing ran into my mind. I could not resist myself to share my feelings. I would have posted this a long ago but you know my laziness always halter me to do the right things. My post is bit gloomy, albeit the weather is very idyllic. However this (weather) is the main reason of my today’s post. I did not take a good sleep today but I do not want to sleep as I do not want to miss the opportunity to relish this awesome weather.

Let me tell you that for this a great drama has been enacted by the politicians at the parliament on 30th July to ban the chat show.
They are saying this as “moral policing”, “misuse” of public interest and bla bla bla…BJP member S S Ahluwalia even said that the programme is unethical and completely against Indian culture.
But why blame Television channels? At the starting of every show they mention: Parts of this program may be for mature audiences. Parental guardians are advised. So if you do not like it, better do not watch it. Who forces you to do that?

Today in India corruption is at its height. If you do not agree with that then there are many shows which run on TV and are more life-threatening than this SACH KA SAMNA, literally ruining our youth. “So for few things in life democracy is not the best policy”.


We make movies like Dev D. I do not know where Indian directors are vacillating. They make movies not for the welfare of society but for their own benefit. And now India decriminalizes gay sex and they give the reason as individual freedom. So according to me that day is not far off when incest will become legal. Oh my god in which genre India is advancing. It is like a bill which is always capricious. I do not know whether Dr. kalam’s vision to make India a developed country till 2020 is accomplished or not but it is for sure that till then India would not be the same as it is now.

For supporting my above mention facts you can look up to the poll of Times Of India:

Is reality show is a mirror to what happens to society? : Yes- 34%, No- 65%, Can not say- 1%. (Dated 10/08/09)

And another one:

Is Bollywood moving away from comfort flicks to darker genre? : Yes- 83%, No- 13%, Can not say- 4%.

So by catching these two polls what you can conceive, I think you are worthy enough to decrypt it.

So first we need to iron out the flaws then only we can start a well tomorrow.

P.S. I am too offspring to write about this issue so please do not mind if someone hurts from this.

I shall take a leave now.

Frisking

SAD….
A national asset is frisked by cheap continental airlines and we officials are watching it happening. Shame..

Let us not dig a well over the vilification of the great scientist Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. I am feeling infelicitous because I just like that person because of his simplicity and his rattling work for the nation. I appreciate attitude and humility of the great man. He is not just a former Indian president but a national asset whom we would never want to forget, whom we would never afford to loose, whom we would never want to see disrespected.

But I think that the right thing is done by the US- officials because at least they are aware of 9/11 attack which they would never want to experience it again. Anything can happen at any moment. If we do not learn a lesson from US then that day is not far off when we get another 26/11 like homicidal carnage.

Making a rule for all makes life easier not bad. Everyone should realize this. Be it for traffic rules, college attendance (ha ha ha), medical facilities, frisking or for big R.

Yes, there should be respect for the bigwigs of the country. Because country’s pride and prejudice depend on these great people. But if we make a list of these honored individuals then this list is never going to end because everyone would fight to be a part of this. And as you know there are 28 states (excluding union territories), so 28 chief ministers, 28 governors and 21 chief justices (thanks to Infatuated Admrier). This list does not end here. Because of ministers, ex CM’s and all who you can consider.

Interesting note is that if the man himself never complained about frisking then why to make fuss of all this. And if they have apologize for the same then why we are enacting such drama. The major problem with we people is that sometimes we show chauvinism rather than patriotism. If we respect him so much then why do not we give a personal air craft to our ex president or why do not we ban all the US continental airlines when Air India is there. We people (I am not an exception) just show that how much we respect our nation, how much respect we have for our people but we do not do anything. We just write the things, discuss it and feel satisfied with this.

No one can read off a human being. A terrorist is also a man. I guess all of you have watched the movie SARFAROSH (people who know me knows how many times I have watched this cinema) and no one can forget the role of Gulfam Hashan in that movie. A great ghajalists whom India gives a great respect and in flip side…. we all know it. In the close of the movie there was a great dialogue which I loved the most. When Sonali Bendre asks Amir Khan “ Vishwash nahi hota gulfaam sahab jaise bade kalakaar aisa kar sakte hai”, then amir khan replies “ kalakaar bhi to inshaan hi hote hai, aur inshaan sahi bhi hote hai, galat bhi”. Lagta hai jada ho gaya!!!!

So at last, my question to you: was that right??

BUDGET 09

It took me 8 days to understand the issues of budget 09. But still I do not know many terms related to business like fiscal deficit, liquidity, how sensex goes up and falls down,excise duty, what is the actual meaning of GDP (gross domestic product). What happened at the day of announcement of financial budget 09 that caused the sensex to fall down by 869 points?
I am trying to decipher the meaning of “fiscal deficit in 2009-10 is proposed at 6.8% of GDP”.

Many fallacies and many truths. But this is what I got from best of my knowledge.

The first one is that, what is the need of increasing money for NREGA which is not working satisfactorily? They are giving priorities for this scheme because it was started by congress government that is for sure. They increase money but this is for the “village level leaders” as nothing is done at ground level (or I must say at root level, because I have done a survey on NREGA in my NSS camp).

They are investing money on agriculture but are unable to curb the migration of farmers from village to city. The problem is not with these farmers (or villagers) but the rapid modernization of India that encourages these people to travel towards the city. The government should not invest much on agriculture but invest to provide the facility for poor people and farmers to melt off the migration of these people.

It is good to give an impetus to education. Providing fund for IITs and NITs to improve the educational system is a welcoming proposal. But increasing more no. of IITs will surely dilute the ongoing status of these esteemed institutions (but as you know this is not been done by the FM).Also proposing subsidy on interest rate on education loans will help humble means to go for a right and respectable institute.

But nothing is done for India’s most grievous problem that is Terrorists and Maoists attack. Bigwigs of government make many promises at the time of elections but nothing is done by these defective people. They think that these 5 years are the fruitful years of their life.

So all in all there was a mix response from the society. Some improvement and some just wastage of money. But as you know all the five fingers can not be made equal.
So let be happy from what has been done….

Wimbledon.....

Recently my interests have turned to Tennis. Thanks to Nadal , Vish,French open, Wimbledon, Amit ji ( I am a regular reader of Amitabh bachchan’s blog) to tune me into tennis court. I am a big fan of cricket but a hardcore fan of Rafa (still I do not know many rules in tennis). Playing badminton is my passion. I am a passionate shuttler (I go for badminton whether it is basic electronics exam “toughest paper we had in 3rd semester” or whether I have a fever of 101 degree), I never gave up playing badminton.

Someone I idolize in tennis like Pete Sampras, Andre Agasi , Steffi Graf, Roger Federer (greatest of all times with 14 grand slam titles equalizing with Pete Sampras) , Leander Paes, William sisters, Maria Sharapova, (not Sania Mirza, her performance and stardom are inversely proportional) and off course Rafael Nadal…

As you see the market in big W is heating. (Or I should say it is at the peak). As only semis and finals are left out.

I am writing this post because I have no work to do today. It feels good today. I am feeling very confident, content, healthy and my mind is working at the high today (generally mind flows to south in midnight) .Reasons I do not know. May be today I woke up at time (generally I wake up at 12 or 1 pm), or may be I had a good sleep in night, or may be I read something related to my subject (generally I do not open books until exams are on the head) or may be there is a mild rain which makes the atmosphere calm.

Sorry, I forget where I was. I lost myself to describe my day..

Oh ya I was in Wimbledon..

William sisters again knock at the final. 29 year Venus destroys Dinara Safin in just 51 minutes while younger one snatches victory from the hand of Elena Dementieva by saving one match point. Let us see whether the older sister is able to defend her championship and is able to score hat trick in Wimbledon.

And whether Andy Murray’s hope to become a first British to get a grand slam after Fred Perry since 1936 is coming true or not. And whether Tennis maestro Fedex will be able to record his name in tennis book to become first tennis player having 15 grand slam titles. He competes in all the four facets of games (Whether it is Wimbledon, French open, Australian open or US open).

He is the undisputed king of grass court. He will be fighting with his old German friend Tommy haas to walk into his 7th Wimbledon finals. Federer should say thanks to Nadal who is not playing this time otherwise who can forget his win over second seeded in last Wimbley.

So let us wait and watch till 5th July whose dream is going to come true….
