Mumbai the city of glamour with the big media jaints, moviemakers, corporate houses, industrial estates and financial capital of the country. Every one goes there with the dream to achieve the goal in life. Most of them they start with the scratch and end up with some thing great as a star. Many of them they do not get anywhere. There are quite a few example starting as a spot boy to the great directors, actors and so forth in Bollywood, there are quite a few stories like those that Chala Murari Hero Banane.Who does not get attracted to glamour world, mostely the youth of the nation.

Not only for the Artists but you take any example like a man from UP or Bihar to make living, he wants to come to Mumbai to do construction job to milk Walla to taxi driver. Every corporate house wants to do the business from Mumbai. Every under world don wanted is base in Mumbai other than Dubai. Such an attractive place for each department of the society, even beggar industry is also the biggest one in the city.
Politicians of the country are claming to turn Mumbai in to Shangie that could be possible due to heavy corruption of political system it might take long time. Over crowded city, experience to travel in local train is not less than wonderland ride. Such a fast life twenty four hours people are running around. Too much musical activity around the city always. Classical music concert you get to attended which is very rare now days other than big cities. Pop, Rock, jazz also is available in weekends. The big international stars come to perform in the city, just to name few Michael Jackson to Ricky Martin. Therefore, it is great entertainment all together. Great Bollywood music directors and there excellent creativity Rocks from old forties well composed classic melodies to latest India pop to rap black American Music, it is all good baby, up to this it is rocking.
Mumbai is great for many things on the world map. In near future there are chances to get this city one of the best cities in the world as the Indian economy is growing at the rate of fast digit. The days are going to come back to the Indian nation over all. In the history, there were times, which enjoyed heaven on earth, the golden age of the country.Thats why the rest of the world wanted to come to India and rule, quanqar grab what ever they can. For last many years, country is facing many problems as over population, curroption, illletercy, health care and many problems. Now the time is changing, that is why Mumbai is going to be great.
Only fear is of dark cloud of terror is to the whole world now days.
Mumbai is also facing the biggest challenge of terrerisom.Under the name of God, one human is killing another. Therefore, how far the human race has come, not having any feeling for other human. Are we better off than animals? No religion teaches the bad thing to the human being. How long it will take to analyze the wrongdoing as a mass killing, the innocents for no reason. How difficult is that to eradicate this problem, it is very scary. How tragic is that war, between two neighboring countries for years together. Why the blind faith in realigon is so strong that extreme mass killing is taking place in the world. Somewhere it has to stop, the time has come to get together the leaders of the world and analyze the issue and find the solution on world terrorism, and bring the peace back to this planate.

Mastermind.

Mastermind
Mind is revealing that should be pen the substantial experience of years together. That would be appropriate work to deal out with others, since the odyssey of life is quite protracted and interesting. The puzzle is, needed to concentrate on few other things that doing for last many years. However, the caliber is there to do it. Participation in social activities as well as political interest to become leader, to do some thing good for the nation. It does not allow sparing time for other things. It is always good to find time for extra activity rather than complaining that do not have time. Seen many people around, they keep up with different activities at the same time and they excel to some extent. Some time it inspires too. At the same time, some people like to do one thing at a time and get mastery on that.
One mind tells that good at languages, so, should be a good speaker. Though a great hobby to collect knowledge on different subjects. The other mind tells, that it is better to be a singer since having great ear for music and took training also.Ofcourse there is chance of achieving full success in that area. Some time the thought comes on mind to become a saint the great Guru from India to offer the spiritual knowledge to the rest of the world. Talk about yoga, meditation and higher level of conciseness, which is supreme conciseness.
So there is option for to handle different things at a time and become a professional in that field as a political leader, musician, doctor of medicine, actor in film and TV, writer and poet, scientist, sport person and many others. This is for sure that each person has a gift of some thing or the other by birth that he could choose the gift to be successful in life. Mostly what happens, to choose the right path has been missed and walks on wrong track? It makes difficult to achieve the goal. For example, a ten-year-old kid attends music concert and get inspired to be a musician. Now he has good voice but chooses to be drummer, after few years he realizes and starts working on vocals. Few years have been wasted. Right thing on right time is must. In some cases your liking is for something else but your financial and social demands are different so one has to go for some thing else. After all it depends on your hard work, how focused you are and your passion to do the things to achieve the goal.
Mind is very fast like gusty wind blows in any direction at any time. It has tendency to be like that. That is why it tells you that you could be the priminister of the country, could be great cricketer and so on. However, in reality it is not simple as that the same thought on your same mind works in some cases and they get on the top as a leader. It is always good to fallow your mind with discipline, determination and hardship; it would take you to your destination. Therefore, this is your mind it is very clever and fast. However, how about the time, how much you got. Will you able to justify too many things at time. You cannot achieve all the things in one life of time. You can take as a hobby and succeed up to some extent. Cannot be wizard though. It is better to mind your own thoughts looking at all possibilities, mastering only one thing at a time. Consequently, only mind-to-mind conversation would be healthy and helpful.

Not Being The Same.

Not being the Same.

At the peak of the alp the old fellow staying by him self. Few miles away from the town it is very pretty spot on the top of the cordillera, surrounded by maple,oak,olive,rosewood,teak and many more trees,creek, water falls and grand canyon. In the valley there is small sacred place. People gather every day for supplication. His job is to sell flowers to the visitors; .That’s how he makes his leaving in old age in remote region. Every year there is big festival in the valley for three days it is big gathering of people in thousands.Diffrent stalls of sweets, flowers, toys for children, music collection and all kind of verity. For the old man it is great fun to enjoy once in year and make some extra money selling those righteous leaves and some wild flowers. He is very well acquainted with the regular people who visit the valley. But it is very difficult in the festival to know who is who. The place was over crowded there was no space to breath. Many people come every year as part of their sanctimonious activity and for some it is great change with friends to visit the beautiful place, to enjoy the water fall, great greenery, stream, bird’s animals and more. Folk musicians to make money and entertain the crowd with songs and dance numbers. So over all the gathering is colorful.
This is the only access; the old man is having to his life stile. He has never been to school, never heard radio or watched TV. This is very strange thing in the world that in what age the worlds population is living, still not exposed to modern amenities. What one should expect from this man in his small world of villagers. What are his demands in his life? Is there any brain work involved? In the society he lives. Does it matter to him or any one is it important issue to think about, in today’s global society. What is span of life, just 100 years to live? Or one life to live which makes huge difference. In the modern world, it is very competitive, restless and successful. For last billions of years human being is evolving but still we are far behind. So how much is the difference between other creatures and the man lives in a small country side town? How it got messed up, only in some parts of the world, in few countries in particular rural area. Such a vast gap. How this gap should be reduced. Really one must give the serious thought to it. Every one has equal right to share and enjoy the essence of life. Especially if you talk about first world country they don’t have such problems. Each fellowman of the country is literate. Accept the older generation of third world and the younger generation of poor people of the world, since they can’t effort to educate them. Because of lack of literacy they miss the opportunity to learn about beautiful things around them. Some time it confueges that was good and what is bad. The old generation is good or modern. May be each has its drawback as well plus points. But still we can’t stop our selves what ever we are doing because time is running out. One has to keep up with the society.
The man is not mixed up with the society. His requirements are just simple and little. He doesn’t need soap, tooth brush, pest or any other cosmetics. Simply he wants bread for a day. Does he want bungalow, car, and good cloths? No he would not enjoy that. It is very easy for him to make living on selling some tree leaves and flowers. Above all he is happy. Now where the urban population is leading them selves. Too much work load, more financial support, luxury life stile and every thing in life what ever they could achieve.Mostely people have every thing but they are not happy. So who is in good situation the villager or the urban man? Do we need to balance the things what ever it is good from each side has to be taken under consideration, and make a unique formula to live life? The whole society is getting exploited by class of community so called few corporate on global chart. Few international brands they are forcing there brands to eat, play, ware and every thing. For their interest of profit rest of the hole community has to purchase their produce and product, there is no other choice you can go for something elase.Now here the game starts, the format of the society in which we live. My neighbor is having this and that so I am suppose to have that. My friend is having that so I should have that. These kinds of thoughts are generated in the society. To have luxury life stile is not a bad thing but up to what extant. How much comfort the mountain man is having.
Under the name of modernization where we are heading. Going against the nature, global warming is creation of modern man. Now every citizen of the world has to take action on this problem. Already the icebergs on north and south poll have started melting. It is going to raise the sea level and the cities and town on costal area are going to sink. So this is time to control every thing other wise the planate will go under water. Who is most responsible for it? More industries, more motor vecails the amount of fuel burning is more co2 has been added to the environment. The weather is getting imbalanced. For last many centuries the first world countries for there own interest and productivity, establishing industries. Who is going to stop them? Now days the concept of globalization and free economy, spreading very fast business chain, cultural exchange and many more different thing. Because of this the third world countries are contributing to pollution.
So it is time to balance every thing all the differences in the society, rich and poor, black and white, Hindu and Muslim or Christian,
Gap has to be reduced, it is better to respect each other, and humanity should be the first preference of every citizen of this planate. Still it is going to help to live the peace full life not being the same.
