Gods program !!

Everyday I wake up with a smile and hope for a good day ahead. And every night before sleeping I have list of problems in my life. Eventually I understood how god has programed my life.

Incredible India !!

Now and then I get excited about things and wanted to blog it. Though the excitement was never enough to rise against my laziness ;-) . But something unusual happened today which I would love to share.

I was sitting on a bench at Oakleigh Station(Melbourne) waiting for the train. My head was down, eyes were closed and I was listening music. I was in my own world until someone taps me on my shoulder. I looked up and saw an old man. He was fair, light colored eyes and looked someone from interior Australia. I took out my earphones and the first word what he tells me was "Namaskar" in complete foreign accent. Out of shock instead of replying in Hindi, I wished him back with "Hello". 

And the conversation goes like this:

Old man :   " Aap Hindustani hai" 

Me : "Yes"

Old man : " Hindustan mein kahan se" 

Me : "Benares, Aap nahi jaante hoge".

Old man : "Benares....Varanasi...Kashi"

I was amazed. I have been to many parts of India. And many people dont know "Benares" specially in southern india until you tell them it is other name of "Kashi". And this old man from some other country knows all three names of the place. 

Me : "Aap kahan se ho"

Old man : "Tashkent" 

I might be poor in geography but seriously I didnt know where this place was.

Me : "Tashkent kahan hai"

Old man : "Jahan LAL BAHADUR SHASHTRI ki death hui thi"

Now this was another shock. I definately knew about Lal Bahadur Shashtri but never heard of Tashkent. I felt ashamed that he knew more than me about my country's history. 

Old man : "Mujhe chalne mein pareshani hai,  train mein chadhene ke liye madad chahiye"

Me : "Sure"

I helped him boarding the train and he wished me "Dhanyawad" while leaving. I never met before anyone from different country and culture speaking Hindi with such pleasure. 

By evening this incident was out of my mind. But then I saw this on one of the Melbourne's tram

Later after "googling" I found Tashkent is in Uzbekistan(Part of former USSR)

Alter Ego

Alter Ego !! Do you have any ?? Oh !! so your best friend or wife or jack or jill or blah blah is your alter ego. They will be so happy to know that you love 'em so much. A good person like you cant stay away from your AE, not even for a second. So sweet of you !!

I wonder when one is so much involved with other, why he/she needs time to be alone. Why anyone says "Leave me alone for a while" or "I would like stay alone for sometime". That means some one else is there, who is more close . Someone who is neglected when you are in crowd but salient when you are alone.



Confused ?? Alone but with some one ??

Nah !! I am not talking about god. Ofcourse I tried to contact him many times. I guess he heard my voice few times but i never got direct reply from him. Some technical error in line !!



Then who ??

If near and dear, god etc.. are not the one, then who ? Who is present when you are alone ? Who listens when you dont speak aloud ? Who inspirits you when everyone put you down ? Who talks to you when only silence is around ? Who gives you solution,suggestion or answer when no one is able to (not google ofcourse !!)?


Ask yourself !! I bet you will find out ..... . And its your real Alter Ego(AE).

Keep your AE strong, cause it can help you to achieve your dream. If you let it weak, you can enjoy your worst nightmare ;-) ..
