Knowledge Abound

Hello y'all, 'is been a long time since I last wrote(xD) .Well, this is off the season rant about nothingness and boringness, and how the time passes. I recently re-watched an old classic, " Saving Private Ryan " and watched a new one ( not technically new, but newer compared to the former), " The Hurt Locker ". Both these movies are related to war, and given the context that the Russo-Ukrainian War is going on right now, I could relate to those young soldiers out there and I made a lot of insights. There is not much background music in both the movies, which aimed to show the raw, brutal, unfaithfulness of war. I can’t seem to get ahead of the fact that sometimes, we humans are totally weird and murderous, but other times we are peaceful and creative. This kind of duality makes me think about who I am and how I should look at my identity as a human being. See, I am not against war or something. Wars are a part of human nature that has been happening fo...

You guys must be thinking, "Hmmm....what a weird title?". So, to clarify, I think this is based on a common experience that everyone has, and has probably wondered about sometime in the life. If you haven't and this is completely new to you, have this for food for thought! So, basically, I was thinking how most of us live our lives , eating, reading ,suffering, entertaining and pleasuring ourselves over the course of around 80 years, and how it came to be. Some of us plan to achieve great things, maybe become "great", others....(like me😂) live 'lives of quite desperation'. We strive, and keep on striving to achieve one thing or the next, whether it be money, status, kids, etc, etc. During our childhood we are mostly dictated on developing and having fun times with friends, in our young adulthood, we are mostly concerned with achieving status and getting the right life partner. During our middle age, it is about family and health management. When senesce...

As a whole month of this new year is finally coming to an end, we can revisit  our resolutions and thoughts and plans we formed for this year. Did you follow it? Were you able to keep with your expectations? I hope so, because I'm about to propose something that might hurt your feelings.😁 The "new year resolution", is a peculiarly interesting idea which has a nice history.  But it is of my opinion that this new year resolution thing is something only humans do but not animals. Yeah , sure animals have no concept of  "self-improvement', or even a self for that matter, but they really don't think the way we do. It's an interesting idea to think if your cat makes a new year's resolution such as "I'm going to be more responsive to my owner this year " xD But all in all though it might a good thing for mental health of an individual, but as a social etiquette, it is pretty weak. I’m sure that many people around the world think the same way. ...

 Hey, I know it's been a long, long time since I last posted anything. But this post is going to one of the last posts of the year 2021. Ciao 2021 ! This post is going to be a rant about a few observations of mine about sleeplessness and how it affects your mental wellbeing as a whole. So there are obviously some myths and some pre conceptions about being sleepless. Some of them are true, but most of them have not been experienced by us. There was even a crazy urban myth about " The Russian Sleep Experiment " but I think it is a sham. The technical for not able to fall asleep is called insomnia. And...this is not a new thing, it was there since our ancestors were present. There are multiple documentations of sleeplessness from times unknown.  We have not been truly sleepless. Yes sure, we lose about 5- 10 hours of sleep but no longer. Usually, it doesn't cause not any physical problem to a person, but more the deterioration of the brain which is not a good thing. But ...

Sorry! Long time no see! I am back with another mindless, unrefined and  unstructured thoughts on mine.  This post is going to be more about an 'off the shore' rant about how humans perceive life and how the actuality of life exists in its true sense.  Sounds boring? Cause it probably is....but if you haven't clicked away yet....what you can really takeaway from this post is a sense of realness and a 'not so unique' perspective on the nature of human existence. The way that humans pass through existence is pretty unique. We use the output of multiple senses and process these images for better understanding of the world. Sometimes the things we think are conscious, or may be unconscious. We cannot differentiate between inputs that can make sense and things that don't make sense in itself. Take dreams for example, we don't realize that we are in a dream until there is something amiss or wrong with the entire logic of events. In that sense, we can't differe...

 Evolution is powerful and continuous process that is happening all around us. Though it seems a mystery and a bit unintuitive for human living in 'urban society', traces of evolution has been all around us. This might be one of the most famous images representing evolution. But this too, is but a restricted view.  We should remember, evolution is a term, natural selection is the process, hence the common phrase: "Evolution by natural selection". But the question is, can we humans truly appreciate the beauty of evolution? Sure, there are things around us that undergo evolution on scales that are visible, but as humans, can we truly see changes in ourselves? Well, I hate to break it to you...but no. We anatomically modern humans, we just came around 80,000 years ago. That is nothing compared to the vast galactic timescales. Considering that an average human lives for around 80 years, the 'MAXIMUM' a person can live for is 0.001% of modern human history. Mind yo...

Rationality is a funny thing. When we think we are the most rational, we usually are irrational. Our tiny human intellect cannot sometime comprehend when and where we are going wrong. I would like to argue that rationality is also....a human thing. Our ideas are only.....as big as us. By Beyond My Ken - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, Wikipedia defines rationality as "  the quality or state of being rational – that is, being based on or agreeable to  reason". But...what is reason? Is it not something created by humans, to comprehend the cosmos? I would imagine someone like Spock from the Star Trek universe to have a completely different approach. Imagine their gods, their culture. Its completely alien to imagine so. Yet, we humans , especially a special branch of humans ( extremist scientists) claim that "everyone can be rational" and everything can be "boiled down" to physics and logic. Yes, it's true that the physics that humans developed works in describing...
