Milk Cruelty Awareness

 Hey everyone, I wanted to share something on my mind lately about milk and the dairy industry. Did you know that most of the milk we consume actually comes from buffalos, not cows? Buffalos are incredibly strong animals, and they naturally produce milk primarily for their calves. Here's the heartbreaking part: in the dairy industry, when a buffalo gives birth, her calf is often killed immediately because the dairy industry sees no value in it. The buffalo, being the strong animal she is, instinctively holds onto her milk for her calf. But since her calf is no longer there, the dairy farmers inject her with oxytocin every day. Oxytocin is a hormone used to induce labour, causing the buffalo intense pain and forcing her to release the milk she was holding for her baby. Imagine enduring labour pain every single day. It’s incredibly cruel and painful for the buffalo. This suffering is hidden behind every glass of milk and every dairy product we consume. We have the power to make more ...

The Universal Function

Image
Let's create a function; this function has one mandatory parameter, which is of type boolean. When this parameter is true, the human is alive; otherwise, the human is dead. This function can have many extra parameters; these parameters will be dynamic and can be added, removed, or have their values changed at runtime. However, if the first parameter is false, these extra parameters have no effect, as the human is considered dead.  When a human is born, the first parameter will always be true. When the human dies, the first parameter will be false, rendering the rest of the parameters accumulated throughout the lifecycle of the function ineffective. This function is universal and common to every human destined to be born or die.  If the aforementioned philosophy holds true, then all humans may not have an individual atma or soul. Instead, we might all be governed by that common function. In this context, it becomes inconsequential whether we are human or animal; this function c...

The Cycle of Life: Moving Forward Through Death and Rebirth

Image
Do you feel the urgency to do things today, now, at this particular time? Do you think that life, as we know it, is limited and uncertain? Do you believe that if a task is not completed within its time frame, it can never be done again, and we will lose everything as if there were no tomorrow? Do you think that a Yogi wastes their time meditating, while a Bogi values their time by working 8 hours or more, to fulfill their duties to their family, work, and social world? Isn't knowing oneself a good thing? Isn't thinking a good thing? Isn't evaluating the very essence of life beneath us the right thing to do? Should we follow the crowd and take that comfortable spot where everyone is dancing, and we too dance, just to show that we're socially involved? Are we not promoted from one position to another, from a less exciting job to a more exciting one? Do we still do the complex mathematics that we did in school? Aren't we all clerks, painters, cooks, CAs, front-end deve...

A cow's message to us

Image
Look around you. The milk that you drink comes from a cow. But why would a cow allow us to drink her milk? Isn't that for her calf? Would you feed your milk to someone else? The world we live in is competitive or cooperative? Is it necessary to be the most powerful to survive? Will the weak exist in a world where might is always right? Do we need the weak? Why do we consider someone as weak? Is it because they are slower at work than the rest of us? Are they weak in all sorts of ways? When work is being done, isn't everyone involved in it, or is it just because you did it? Does a tree depend only on one leaf or does it have multiple leaves? Can an organization function only with software developers or need other types of people? Returning to the original topic, why does a cow give its milk to others? Is it because she is trying to show us that for a society to grow, we have to think about others and not just about ourselves and our family?

I think of only myself

In an argument, I think of proving my point rather than thinking of a solution. In a discussion, I think of getting respect rather than sharing knowledge. In a fight, I think of kicking the other guy rather than his pain. In a train, I think of getting that window seat, rather than giving it to someone who is old. While learning, I think of getting that first position, rather than allowing others to improve with me. The era has come, yes it is 'Kalyug'. Ram Rajya, when Ram due to some uncertain situation was sent to the jungle for 14 years, leaving his kingdom to younger brother Bharat without any disgrace. And Bharat just for sake of completing the responsibility accepted the Kingdom but never sitting on the throne his elder brother was entitled, instead, putting elder brother's shoes on the throne to show his loyalty. That Ram Rajya, is long gone. Now, we think of ourselves, we think of winning the race, we don't care about the others in the race. ...

Rules are for Stupid People

Let's think on it deeply, what are "rules"? Rules are boundaries created for people who don't understand. Example: Suppose if someone very popular died, someone who was very loving to all. That person has created a place in heart of all people across all the world. So someone decided to create a WhatsApp group to remember moments of that person's lives. Imagine in that group if someone posted a funny video of a dancing monkey. Won't everyone in the group be angry, they will create a rule for those person who don't understand the purpose of the group, who are not capable to understand that person's work for all human kind. So rules are those, who don't understand. Otherwise wise people doesn't need rules, they respect the boundaries because they know the importance of the purpose behind it. Try to know the purpose you will himself realize the value and why we shouldn't break the rules You himself can make " Bharat Swatch ...

But if you were to see from my eyes, it starts here, when you see that shop, when you see that thing, when your heart pounds for it, just think...

Evolution of entrepreneurs

Daksha type: Daksha is a king long ago, he believed in taking and giving concept, I give you something, you give something in return. Example: There's this time when there is no way to store water. Every human being on earth, whenever they need to drink water, go the pond and with their hand, they satisfy their thirst. One day a man discovers a piece of carved wood, carved in such a way that it can store sufficient amount of water, so the man experiments and thus water was stored in that piece of wood and then he would carry back to his home. Other villagers living near by also want a piece of wood like that, so another man from the village thinks of making the same by using sand or clay. After many attempt, he makes it that can store water just like that piece of wood. So that person knowing how to build a pot became famous as all people in the village requires a pot so that they could store water at their home and travel less. But since the demand was pretty high, he was not abl...
