Vajra


Crysatalite, nature in its patterns extends and imparts onto itself, the rigidity to withstand and adhere fractionaly to a point of brilliance. Diamonds glittering, refracting adorance is one such pattern from the synchrony.

Dancing within its own fractions, light refracting through faces of crystal in a path shaped by its rigidity. Sparkled.

Every moment is an embrace between light and darkness.

With thoughts clouding my mind, there is for sure thunder. I just wonder where it strikes.

What glitters in the eye could be a sparkle, just as much as it could be a thunder, enlightening as it strikes across its path.

Vajra has its origin in Hindu mythology and folk stories where Lord Vishnu was known to instrument the undistructability and unconstrainability of diamonds and thunder.

Aesthetics and Art

Aesthetics is not merely a praise or perfection or a medium for  agenda. Beyond the borders of our common belief, art is a strong conscious stimulant and moderator of our understanding and traverse through evolution. It serves our comprehensions of desire and will of planting seeds so we may sow and reap expedience.

By creating art, we innoculate our insights on the outer world in a resonant weave of influx and outflow which is emotional and behavioral. An artist is a social comentator, articulating beyond the awe and admire, in an attempt to caliberate the audience with a common understanding and classification of perspectives.

Everything we end up doing in a lifetime is our own unique art of living.

Speak your mind



Socialy transparent


On the peripherals where criticality can spark the possibilities of a conversation,
A living commentary is an easy way to describe a pool of thoughts that you dip in and surface with every intonation. Everyone has a story to tell.


In memories frozen, a wave still picks,
To your acts to your glories
Your beautiful presentation of stories





Museums and culture

As we look for answers in the past, we have only a present for the questions of future.

Creed

its not just a bout between ingenious birth and inherited belonging, but it also is a concern of effering claims. You might come from the Egyptian banks, Roman Fields, Himalayan Paradise, Latin plains, royal castles, Rich Islands, God's Country or any time and civilization worth a mention, but you only come to a moment where you are one in a seven plus billion...and you are just human, that was once fish

departing soul arriving thoughts

We converge to a common belief of life and build ourselves, shaping everything we can possibly shape around us. But in all this breaking and making, all we are able to retain is a breath at a time.
 In form and existence, a soul is always evolving, moving, turning and departing.
In form and belief, when an individual clears itself off its strife to a point of realization of oneness with any or a specific verse, it establishes its soul. The comprehensions, wills and dissolution of these souls are fated to our mere interactions and conversation.

storytelling and expression


dreaming and living


infinite within finite

Within us, we can create the possibility of infinite within a finite time and space. We curve within ourselves reflecting through mind and matter, to create and recreate possibilities in all directions. Like two parallel mirrors creating an infinite view within their finite separation.   Two people who know each other in their falls and rise. Like two mirrors. Able to show the other and share. Two houses torn, facing each other. Creating a pass, a valley, a puddle in this constant shower of things. I talk to an imaginary you. You, that are everywhere, in everything.   If it were an art to live a life, we could all produce a beautiful masterpiece. 

sleeping act

If sleeping is dormancy, then awakenings should be realignment with the accumulated. However,  When we sleep, it is an act of pulling our ends apart, tearing, creating space inside. Like shedding our skin and known. A safe shell within which, we shiver, cuddle and comfort ourselves to a careless sleep.
When we sleep, in spite of all our tragedies, we create our heavens in our thoughts and give in to it, daring to dream still. The awakening, therefore, always feels like the beginning.

Origin of Tattoo - Origin of Tattoo - the permanent story of Body Art

 Origin of Tattoo The word "Tattoo" in present day is defined by an array of styles and cultural illustrations permanently created within the layers of living human skin. It has been a practice continued over centuries by different civilizations with varied significance and associations. These known instances are the common genres of the modern tattoo tradition. A tradition which has evolved not just in popularity and creativity, but also the methodology and equipment. When tattoos started in our noted history, there are three individual instances of a social definition: 1. Tribal Tattoos- to differentiate groups. Tribal designs inspired by geometry and nature are among the oldest creations of humans. Some researchers believe it could be as old as cave paintings. Long before we turned to paper to put our thoughts through, early humans had started to express in brilliant arrays of stripes and scars across their skin, in representation of their understanding and abilities. African tribes in remote areas still practice age old procedures. The most outstanding designs can be seen in Polynesian, Maori and Celtic tattoos. 2. Stamps and markings- to establish identities. Organisations as old as the colonial rules practiced it to mark their slaves. Similarly, Prison Tattoos from Russia and the Yakuza legacy of the Japanese body art and symbolism are among the leading innovators of tattoo for enthusiasts. Even in China, where tattoos have also been used to brand criminals, it evolved as an attractive social expression and china's development over the years as fueled in the brilliance of design and color with their history of diversity and culture. China along with the US are mass producing the equipment and inks for the modern artists worldwide. 3. Decorative and honorary- to emphasize culture, independence or beliefs. All the while tattoo has been associated with body modifications and permanent make-up, it has created a unique pattern of expression through the body among humans. Limited by technology in the early ages and fearful of the social implications humans have always been inclined towards creating a more attractive, detailed and meaningful outlook. Today designs are inspired from Buddhist paintings, astrological prophecies, personal dedications, cultural makeup and even science fiction. After all, a tattoo might tell a lot about the bearer.

A Design or pattern is common to every belief system



Expression is always a novelty of belief

A case of independence

Metaphor of reparation


In light of the revolutionary arguments from accounted history, it is impossible to rule out the significance of independence. Time and again, men and women from within flourishing societies have stood up for a cause arising from their needs and demanded political reparations.

The term "reparation" is commonly referred to a financial settlement paid against the proven  wrongdoings by one community on the other. However, it is only a temporary respite since the struggle at all times is to benefit from the limited resources available to the entire population of earth and undoing the done is as much an irreparable count as lost time.

In 1947, the once colonial state, India under the British monarchy, proclaimed independence and subsequently took control of the functioning of a nation that was once the British asset of East India Company. On papers, it was a transfer of power from one community to other. It was a feeling of liberation for the needful population of India, which like any growing community or civilization was In persuit of desires pertaining to control on organizational potential. Considering the collective behaviour is monitored and predicted at a general rate in measures for studies of all developments and discipline, and that all humans have an equal right, there could be a possibility of functional independence with respect to proclaimed difference of belief and belonging.

There are days in our past, where agreements were a mere handshake. In the present, there are convocations and gatherings with ceremonial accounting and strategizing of policies towards conceptualizing approach. The control over direction of this approach is the interest of beneficiaries who are the diplomats of community representation. This expatiates the paradigms of mutuality in decision making at each step.

Gender based empowerment,  upliftment of backward classes, financial subsidies and and even constitutional ammendments are metaphors to a reparation, where a set of individuals seek ownership or interest on parts of the nett resource available, in lieu of opressive setback suffered in the past. It should be noted that at times the cause is a dispute and the consequence is a settlement of law, Not necessarily involving a transaction of any sorts.

Generation Journalism

Youth and Journalism in the wake of new media.

"In a routine, every person reflects around the information perceived."

Sitting across tables at coffee shops or leaning against the walls at a tea stall, everyone enjoys discussing news. The daily dose of information and stories that are procured through the news are key to individuals being able to create a spontaneous awareness of the surrounding. As a mark of significance, many aptitudes are tested with an inclusion of the current affairs. News has helped improve many aspects of the daily living. 

Journalism is the activity or profession involved in broadcasting news or information through various social media.

Like the good old radio broadcast.


As time and age progressed, Humans have constantly secured and refined the different broadcasting mediums. For example- In 1864 James Clerk Maxwell showed mathematically that electromagnetic waves could propagate through free space. And thanks to the broadcasting champions ever since, we have recently received pictures from a remote probe, at the farthest end of our galaxy, nearing  Pluto.

A close-up image of Pluto has revealed a vast, crater less plain — resembling frozen mud cracks on Earth — that appears to be no more than 100 million years old and is still being shaped by geologic processes.

This frozen region is north of Pluto’s icy mountains, in the center-left of the heart feature named Tombaugh Region after Clyde Tombaugh who discovered Pluto in 1930.



New media

Journalism today is not restricted to national news and Political Debates. In the wake of latest social media, More and more valuable conversations are taking place in the organizational world. 
PubMed, which an internet resource, comprises more than 24 million citations for bio-medical literature from MEDLINE, life science journals, and online books. Citations may include links to full-text content from PubMed Central and publisher web sites.
 Like wise, through various social media, creating information resource for all behavioral conversations, including sports, entertainment, and even weather forecasting, journalism has contributed greatly towards more aware individuals in the population.

It is safe to say that journalism is trying to reach and connect to every facet of human existence for its benefit. Broadcasting important news is only the surface of the flow of information between humans through an observed channel, where individuals or groups with access are able to improve their awareness and understanding of the bigger picture. This has also helped in evolving sustainable conversations in communities and lead to progress.

The wave of generations and youth

Ever so often there has been a breakthrough in technology, redefining the means and extent of the news we share.

Centuries ago, our forefathers took it to fashion clay tablets and stone inscriptions for news and information . To their success, we have a detailed account of several manuscripts that survived the test of time and tell us about the news from those days still.


Through the years, science and technology has been the greatest ally in the quest for active and productive journalism.

At every step, the evolving waves of generation have established and propagated information with unprecedented efficiency. Today We are empowered with the right to information and enjoy freedom of expression on a wide range of platforms using personalized devices.

This development over the years is a clear indication to the impact of next generation and youth on journalism.

In the largest ever population in known history, one of the most influential segment in social media today is the youth, with age group 18 to 30 constituting upto 60% of the total audience.

Just as much the youth is an audience for the need of journalism, it is the contributing element of the information resource. It becomes of value to be able include the sentiments and perspectives of different age groups in the journalistic discipline.

Afterall, a mutual conversation can take us farther and further in every aspect of possibilities and development.

When youth joins the journalism campaign, it awaken to a professional prospect and imparts its contribution towards a more realistic outline of news. It would also create a window for youth specific issues and conversations, at par with the national and global discussions.

At a cultural level, we are already suffering from the consequences of disputes and differences. To avoid the worst, the world has issued possibilities of sanctions and is always warding war at summits. Diplomats are commissioned everywhere trying to get the differences to work together. The only hope we have is future. With the young generation aboard, journalism could accelerate the persuit of peace and acceptance of differences.

As role models for a younger generation, the diversity of age in journalists would be encouraging and motivating.

The idea should be to create a fair and an honest journalism without barriers of differences.

Poetic oculesics.

So much we long, yet reach only
wandering lively reflections lonely
Just to find a way to greet
Deep in the eyes, sharing retreat
