Prevention is better than cure

Meaning: The meaning of the proverb ‘prevention is better than cure’ is that it is much more easy to prevent a problem from happening than to solve the problem after it has already happened.

Similarly, it is much more easy to get things right at the first place than to get repaired the damaged ones. The cost of preventive maintenance is much lower that the cost of repairing the damaged ones.

Explanation: We should use our ability to foresight and try to prevent any adverse situation that may arise in the future. We should be careful enough to take all appropriate preventive measures for known risk.

When we prepare ourselves well, it’s more likely to get fruitful results for our actions.  And because we have planned it well, our mind will remain at peace.

Importance of this proverb in our daily life.

1. We can prevent illness by maintaining healthy habits and eating healthy foods. It is better to follow the basic rules of health and hygiene and prevent diseases.

2. We can buy movie tickets in advance to avoid last moment harassment.

3. While planning for holidays, we can plan our trip properly so that smooth travel is ensured.

4. We can prevent stomach upset by eating fibrous food.

5. We can prepare well for our exams so that we can remain calm on the day of our examination.

6. We can prevent old age worries by saving some money for the future.

7. We can love our family members to avoid difficult relationships.

Conclusion: We may conclude in the words of Benjamin Franklin, who rightly said that ‘An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Water - The Elixir of Life

Water is the formless potential out of which creations emerged. It is the ocean of unconsciousness enveloping the island of consciousness. Water bates us at birth and again at death. It is by turns the elixir of life or the renewing rain or the devastating flood.

Water washes away sins - If it would be that simple. Getting water aint simple so washing sins with water easily does not make any sense. Having all the money on earth and no water makes no sense. Water is currency in a way if there is hardly any fresh water reserve left.

Either way i find this current dispute between Tamil Nadu and Karnataka interesting

Cauvery water dispute: Supreme court passes a verdict on September 5 to release 15 k cusecs of water to Tamil Nadu. The river starts in Karnataka and ends in Tamil Nadu. I dont know if i can limit the use of Oxygen only to me and not share it with others around me. Unless and until if it is not made by you or hold patents to a product you really cant do much about it. You cannot defy nature and geography. It does not make any sense but when it comes to water all makes sense. Water is currency/money exchange. Economy directly depends on the amount of fresh water in possession.

India is a land of possibilities. Interesting is that even if the courts favors the defendant there can still be problems. One has to deal with it when confronted. Business establishment suffer huge losses. People start setting things on fire. Vehicles and property of the neighboring state and within state destroyed. People who are trying to make ends meet suffer losses when hell breaks loose. All what i have learned when it comes to dealing with resentment you will have to soak all of it and do nothing about it. Being a animal and loosing touch with humanity may work or else forget it. In this case it worked as contingents of curfew police tried their best to bring things back to normalcy.

Being at rest by relying on them is not all assured. The very fact to prove this statement is the Syrian crisis. Certain factions have many fucktions that dont match with yours. Conflict of interest and brawl for the cup of life begins.

Cynical/Skeptical is all what you end up being when this happens to everyone as a  person. Until then it is a beautiful world and no one really cares if the other man around you lives or dies.

Battle of Water and Battle for Life both are two sides of the same coin. Fools suffer fools.

Bar Bar Ye Hi Hain

Better to seek lies and avoid heartbreak rather than seeking truth. Not everything has a logical/practical approach. Nonsense is the only sense. Over time non sense makes sense. Life is unconsciousness and death is vice versa. One and only one thing makes sense that is every equation will have balance. Balance is everything.

Life is a four letter word

I guess this guy got it right. Life is after all a four letter word. Our whole lives are revolves around it. Life as magical in itself is associated with it. Well after reading a  piece on paper i need to keep few points with me my whole life.

What i understand is Life **** s you or you take control of it. If you dont it will for sure take a tail spin and your head will start rolling faster than expected.

I know that we as a civilization have a day for everything. Whatever is important around us has been given a name say for eg Love and we have Valentines day. I for sure never knew that we as a civilization have a day for people who hate themselves and end it (Suicide).  September 10 is officially worldwide declared World Suicide Prevention Day. I for sure know that i am not strong and i am not trying to make fun of the whole concept. It is something which i have to keep in mind because as  Fried rich Nietzsche states that God is dead  is not the literal meaning it is otherwise. I feel what he is trying to say that i need to control of my life and there is no god around the corner to soothe or spoon feed you. Only the fittest can survive but at times life takes a wrong turn and things dont add up as expected. In the given case scenario i  have taken points from a piece written in Bombay Times which are as follows.

1. World Suicide Prevention Day - September 10.

2. Youngsters in Mumbai feel suicidal at the age of 16.

3. Raging Hormones cannot comprehend feelings. Younger adults have a fractured resilience due to the way they are bought up on.  Environmental factors are often quoted.

4. What are these factors  - Everyone is fighting for a piece of the same pie, Emphasis laid on thinking is not a option anymore .  eg  Death of an actress, Success for a while, At times things dont work up - People have a difficult time living without it. Fight/Flight response takes over. Increasing population which is creating an unequal situation. No one wants to talk about it/discuss it. Many state it as a sign of weakness. Retreating into a shell is the next phenomenon taking place.

5. 3-4 people in Mumbai want to take their life every day. Expectations are materialistic and life style related along with relationships going wrong. Kids as young as 16 have failure in love which makes them to take a bold step.

6. People forming suicide pacts and dying in a group is the next wave of ending things,

I just need to keep all this mind because i dont want to live in a delusion and i for sure know that Life is a four letter word. Cynical/Skeptical ? - I know for sure that Life will mentally **** you up. At least i have to be aware of it and keep it in mind.  Some one will win and the other will loose. It can go either way

Reason : When the going gets tough the tougher gets going is not for everyone. At times it humps you so hard that no orifice will be spared.

My pocket note.

Mind Body and Soul: The Enigma

Mind Body and Soul 

Infinity exist in a finite seed. A seed planted becomes a tree. From a tree again there is a fruit, from a fruit there is a seed, from a seed a tree, so in a finite seed there is indefinite capacity to grow.

Quote -  From a Sage  - Genre : Fiction

I guess what he is trying to say is Thoughts are seeds. Infinity exist in thoughts.

There are different things born out of ideas. Timeless craftsmanship of inspiration in action. Though it is a product of the hand it is the inspiration of the mind.  -

A dream doesn't  become reality through magic. It takes sweat determination and hard work.

Quote: Collin Powell  - Genre: Reality


Greek to me/Wild goose chase. There is a current ongoing dispute about the ownership of these words by scholars. Many say there were used formally used by many writers before Shakespeare. Although it got much recognition after Shakespeare using it. I personally dont give a damm in who said what as long as it is relevant practically. These two words defines me and the rest of the world. I know for sure that no one out there has figured life out. Purpose/Reason/Existence - Importance of life .


It is me who has to come up with a solution if i want to exist. I know that there is a way of doing it it too. I have to learn by Experience. Experience is a comb to a bald headed man. This line means a lot as it is just memories most of the time which give a bad taste of regret.Memories and bad tastes of regret is what life is at the end of ones life time. I have not come across one story out that is too good to be true in real life. On the contrary fiction is the only genre in which too good to be true exists. There is always a happy ending in fiction. Romance is nothing but  a deluded man trying to find peace in real world. Stories with a romantic subject make people live in a world of spitting rainbows and shitting butterflies.



Looking retrospectively and prospectively Fiction and Reality is all that the word has to offer. No one really knows what is fiction or reality. Over the years of my existence all what i have learned is one common thing that resonates with all Fiction VS Reality. We are nothing but fighting fiction and reality in our day to day lives. It may make no sense but it makes absolute sense. We are walking a fine line in between sanity and insanity otherwise reality and fiction. The best part of it is when reality is associated with fiction and vice versa. What i feel is there is no reality without fiction and no fiction without reality. Otherwise the crux is that you cannot separate reality from fiction and fiction from reality. You cannot just live in two separate worlds of fiction or reality. Fiction and Reality go hand in hand. Still there are many who are not able to come to terms with either of it.Many live like realist and few in a world of fantasy who eventually leave their toxic residue to people who are confused. It may make no sense but it is happening unconsciously without man or woman knowing it. It sounds strange but it is absolutely true.


I knew that this phenomenon  exist. There are things happening at the molecular level /microscopic level without man/woman noticing change. I have not noticed the change in me since i am a little boy. I feel that i am acting only on the basis of the current toxic residue left by people fighting fiction and reality. I enjoy fiction though and it keeps me at peace. Yesterday evening i go out for my binge of fiction and this one movie i feel has made a impact in the subject of ordinary people fighting fiction  and reality. There is not one movie i recall of which has dealt with this phenomenon in three stories. Well art is subject to people who see it and it is not necessary to resonate with all.


 Fun is not real
The first story is Fun Committee: I feel that the subject is not able to separate fiction from reality. He lives in the real world world of statistics commands and programs. He doesn't know to draw the line of fiction from reality. Fiction is real and real is fiction. His actions then have consequences.


Fun is real.
The second story is Ghost in a machine: It deals with a subject who cant separate reality from fiction. Her world revolves on the craving of fiction. I feel that somewhere in her brain she feels that fiction is reality. She is not able to accept the harsh cruel misogynist world from reality. What she sees and likes is what she wants. I feel human emotions are revolving around it. Careful work on human emotions is  done on the second story.


Fun is not real/Fun is real.
The third story is Contact. It deals with a subject who is confused and some time in her life believes fiction is real. She is finding it difficult to separate reality from fiction. She is lured into fiction and starts believing that romantic men are comforting than the current day self obsessed selfie clicking man. She knows to draw a line in between fiction and reality although falling into fictions trap gets the best of her. She suddenly stops believing in things around her and starts living in a mechanized world without a soul.


I feel that this may not be the ultimate goal of the movie but what i feel is we as a civilizations are trapped in our dreams. We are striving hard for our dreams to come true. Al tough many of the times we are not able to draw a line in between fiction and reality which eventually leads to life getting the best of you.

Yesterday i got hold of a copy of The Week, September 11,2016 that has dealt with a article which resonates with me. I really dont know what draws people to take Medicine. People who say to make lives better and not make money is a lie. If you really wanted to do that there are thousands of ways doing it without charging exorbitant amounts. Medicine is just a trade like any other trade in which you need to be very careful about as it is not a exact science. They are trying to connect fiction and reality. Anyways the article written about Mr Sharma diligently highlights the points of  the article Why i regret being a doctor. If people are drawn into it without knowing its side effects are living in a world in which they cant separate reality from fiction.


Points known: Suicides and antidepressant use are quite high among doctors. Along with that current article highlights modern day plight of doctors succumbing to infectious diseases and dying from it. Violence threats abuse and physical assault are common than they used to be. The ones who advise hardly take any advise because of odd working hours succumbing to Diabetes/Hypertension/Back pains/Varicose veins/ Insomnia.


Either way there are many other professions who will eventually face the same problems as they do but in a different way. One will eventually have to learn to walk the ropes of fiction and reality in life and work.

The man who doesn't suffer fools - Rule of Thumb

I am a fool who is suffering fools. What am i supposed to do and how am i supposed to behave is a thought that never tinkers me as long as i am within limits. I have an inbuilt subconscious reasoning in place to handle such thoughts. It has been guiding me my whole life. I know for sure that i will never be able to argue my case with a irrational human being ( Modern humans on planet earth) and my voice will not be heard no matter how much i try. I may not be right and i should accept it when i am wrong keeping in mind Gandhi. Altough today morning i strike a cord with an article written in paper. Before i go into it i have to clear few things in my head to validate the articles claims.

 I have no blueprint or a protocol to live my life. Holy books for sure but rationally speaking there are limits/extents that you can stretch to if you want to live. Excuses again but then it comes down serving money or god. I choose money because i want to live. I know for sure that majority of us fall into this category and nothing can shake the current scenario. All of us carry symbols associated with religion although it is quite the opposite.  I have been living solely on the basis of a impulse based on the current day herd mentality. Impulse has driven me and will drive me today and tomorrow. Of what i have seen humans are bags of  different emotions. Not all of us are synchronized to it which leads to coining the term Difference of opinion/Agree to disagree. All have different takes on the plight of current day modern society which is often the reason of conflict. We live in  a world of conflict driven by a impulse and emotion. I cant help it but be a part of it. Attitudes towards life is that defines you and the country which you live in.

 Altough current day scenario is such that things can take a wrong turn. The same society that praises you can carry out a witch hunt. It is so obvious on a daily basis when you read news papers. Being a fool and handling fools is the toughest thing to do. I am a fool because i dont know what to do and how to handle other fools that are on the same page as me. I cant put myself as Mr Self righteous and i dont plan to be one as i am a member of a stiff necked society.

The article We the people written by Suhel Seth highlights my plight that i need to keep in mind. I have and will be having a handling people crisis. Points which he makes in the article can keep me at peace. I call it my moment of Zen

Quotes from the article

Pointer 1 - Dealing with Herd Mentality (Bokas)  -  Flood in Delhi/Gurgaon - City submerged in water - Badmouth/Curse the administration - Swear at cops - Rains subside so our angst. This is the routine behavior of We People of India. We are angered easily and forget as quickly and go back to our errant ways.

Pointer 2 - Dealing with Hypocrisy - We live not in ethical times but in convenient times. When it is convenient we will abuse and hurl all kinds of slurs and when it is not we will return to our cages of civility. We curse the concept of bribe and yet the first to bribe the moment we know we can get away. We dont care how filthy our roads and surroundings are as long our abodes are clean and comfortable.  We dont care if the neighbor is being burgled as long as we are safe. The fact that a man injured in the road was left to bleed to death by onlookers says a lot about us and here we cant blame.

Point 3 - Dealing with ethics - We will rightfully complain if a hospital bed is denied to an ailing relative and yet we bother tinkering with ethics if we cant get our way. Individuals easily absolve ourselves of all accountability and blame the system. Cancer in our system is fueled by lack of values and ethics.

Point 4 - Family and Environment -  Lack of shame is an essential ingredient of our lives. Shame has disappeared from our lives. By shame i mean the ability in the first place to separate right from wrong. Society dispenses with shame and looses  integrity. All are rushed to climb the next blue mountain, trampling on values is par for the course.

Point 5 - Morality - Recaliberate Indian ethos - Before we dream to re-engineer India. Nation is nothing but its people and people are the ones that make the nation and never the the way round. Ethical parenting and value based citizenship should come from individuals and not a holy book.

Point 6 - Value Quotient/Status Quo - Challenging status quo which breathes convenience and compromise and instead be willing to endure short term pain. Ethics and values dont have short cuts. Bypass is for cars and not for human beings unless ofcourse it is for the heart.


6 Pointers in which the article deals with makes absolute sense  Living with these principles can help you navigate  and reach your destination. I am for sure can rest my case and be in peace with myself if i have lived my life on these values. Value and Integrity is what matter and should be practiced not preached. I am skeptical about its implications in this world because all cant match the current expectations. Trying to be Mr Right and doing the right thing can add fuel to fire when you correct people. All you can do is stay aloof or be a part of the brouhaha knowing everything and keeping a leash on your conscience. Group of people - Country can reach its maximum potential only if all thoughts are synced. I for sure cant blame a individual person or me and i have to float in a maze of known unknowns.

I will suffer fools no matter how much i try and i have to learn a lot to tactically avoid it. You cant help it if it comes and gets you. There will never be shortcuts in values and ethics.
