The dream of life by Jitu Das short stories

It was a very beautiful morning, and I was awake that morning very early. The door was open and went to wash my mouth. Everyone was asleep even though the sun was pouring sunshine in their rooms. I went outside of my house and started to walk, it was very strange, I arrived at a place near railway line. A big field, the grass was green and glowing cooly and sky is full ofcumulous clouds. I walked again in a road of small green grass. I saw three big temples there, the temple was ancient, I have never seen temple of such architect. The weather was beautiful, sun was hiding in the black clouds, and sunshine was falling only through some pores of the clouds. There was calm breeze flowing and the air carried the scent of red rose flower and lotous. There was a pond of lotous near the temples. Then I saw a zoo, there was man in counter, I went to that counter and he gave a ticket to the zoo. I took the ticket and went inside the zoo, the zoo was bigger than it seemed from outside. There was butterfly flying everywhere, boa and pythons were moving freely, the tigers and lions were playing in water,there was small boy who was loughing watching the monkeys making fun of a tiger. They were all free, and I was mesmerized to see all these. It was so great and wonderful that my heart was filled with ectasy. I was stuck in that moment and I could not move, I was taken by that moment of view, I absorbed all the beauty, the thousands of colorful butterfly, the trees are everywhere, the sould touching scents from the flowers of million flowers. The colorful fishes in the ponds. And the sunshine from sun made the whole zoo just  magical. The birds were in a competition of swining sweet. The parrot was singing some ancient melody he heared from the mouths of mankind of ancient ages. There was Chameleons in the tree brances, frogs sitting in the big flat leaves of lotous floating. Then I gain my sense to walk again. There was big giant trees as I went inside the zoo and I knew that it was not a zoo, it is a forest of ancient time.
It was so strange, when I was holding the ticket outside the zoo, I though how did I get there. Then I again went inside the zoo, it was different from the zoo I have seen a while ago. Everything was different, even me. I was tired and weak. The animals were locked inside the cages. The tiger and lions, they were sitting sadly, the monkeys were sleeping, there was no fun they can have inside those cages, so they would dream,which was more fun. The snakes were hopeless, their number have decresed than I saw them. There was a video screen infront of every cage of the animals, and when I went near the cage, I heard a voice of women saying, headphon is connected, now you can listen. I did not know I had ear plug in my ear, there was no wire. That video was showing the tiger, because I was near the cage of tiger, the video told that there is not much tiger left. Where was I, was in future. I coudn't know what year that was, but I knew it was not a distant future. Suddenly I met a friend, a friend that I once knew and now forgotton. I don't know what he was searching but he was standing there and looking at everywhere like he was mesmerized, and I don't remember what did I talk to him, I just remember saying good bye to him. I came out of the zoo and I saw the ancient temples were still there. Then it started drizzling rain, I saw an old man looking at those temples, he was taken by that moment. He seemed to me someone I once knew. Even though he was old, I saw that his eyes were big and curious, his face was glowing, then his body was glowing, he was becoming more beautiful every moment and then he was not old anymore, he became young again, My jaw dropped and a chilling feel ran in my every cell. I felt strong and a whole new energy was dwelling inside me. When I look at him, he was not there anymore. Then a thought so wild and  magical  came to my mind that I was looking at myself and that old man was myself. How could that can ever happen. I have seen places that I though never existed in my town, I was in past and I was in future and now here I am in the present. I must find the meaning and for that I have to enter to the temples, temples big as mountains and yet I think I should stay on my present,if I see my future then, then there will be interest left in my present and future. Future should not be explored,we must live our present and by living our present we explore the future.Even though I wanted to know about my future because I thought knowing the future could save me the trouble, so that I do not have to fear the unknown future and worry about anymore. 
But that is what I should not do,knowing the future is not the way to live life.After thinking a lot,I went home, the road was empty,still everybody was sleeping and the door was open,I felt sleepy and went back to my bed. And I after woke up I felt free and calm. I know now life is not about wining or losing, its about hoping for better.

The Problems of Me generation1992 by Jitu Das philosophy

                                                1. Problems of the my "Me"  generation

I do not know why my generation and the younger gen. do not believe in one love. May be its because there is so possibilities. My generation does not sleep well, it is because of the limitless possible ways to spend time, on the internet, its a page among millions of page. Everywhere you got choose. There are many options in every menu. Menu of a mobile, tv, restraunt etc. You have to make a choice and if you want to make a right you will get stuck like me, because from a lot of thinking, reading and watching movies, I have come to believe that there is no right way except the instinct's way. Do you know what is the name of my genration, its called me me generation. The generation I am in cares about themselves much more than any previous generation have ever did.

                                                   2.  My parent's generation

 There is a great difference between the time when my father was at my age and now where I am. I talk a lot with my fathes. He has all these amazing stories of the people he knew and now. He tells the stories of the people of his village where he was born. When I asked my father about his dream career. He said that getting a good job was a big dream for a young man in a place so undeveloped like Gati, a village nearby the world heritage site Manas national park in Assam. Well he founded a school in his own land and became the head teacher. That time was different and even though we usually like to think that the previous generation had it easy, well it is not true. It had been always   competitive  around our planet earth. You got to be better and evolve so that your next  generation  survives. When I look at my parents I see peace in them. Why couldn't I have that peace ! May be it comes with age. As Satyanath Bora, one of my favourite  Assamese  writer said that he found peace when he got where his enemies anger, lust, greed,jealousy became weaker and he found peace. I can not wait to get old to find inner peace.

                                                3. How do I find my little peace ?

 There is a way by which I find peace and the way I am going right now this very moment. Guessed what ? Its the writing. I have never found more peace in anything else except watching good films, listening music. But when I am watching a movie or listening to a music, I am not doing nothing on my own. Other than writing I love photography. What I want to say in this post that this generation I was born is filled with limitess choices. There are thousands of career in the world. 

                                          4.How do you know what is the right career choice ? 

Of course  you have to know what you love and want most for sure. You can love manything, but is there anything specific that you love that gives you peace. It is the same with life partner too. You must find someone who gives you love and most of all peace in heart.

                                             5.  How do someone gives you peace ?

 Someone can give you peace just standing by and understanding what you say verbally or nor verbally and responding to them. Technolngy is not bad, it was made by human to make life more easy and comfortable. Now you do not press the keys with your right thumb, you just have to touch it. And what can I say about social interaction in a global system. We are all connected. It's like one big brain, and the people are the neuron cell connecting or disconnecting sending news to each other. But too much is very bad. 

                                                6.  There is a cometition in everything.

 Students compete with grades. Cricketers compete with runs or wickets. Company competes with their product. Countries competing with each other with nuclear power.As a humankind we are competing with our own yesterday. But yesterday may seem inferior to today, but without yesterday we would never  reached  today. That is why as we grow older, past seems more glowing even it was hard and painful. But it should because life is now or never. 

                                                    7.  The right girl for me !

There is so many things to do nowadays. Its like if you are not doing this and that you are wasting your life. Its like if I do not have one or two girlfriend I am just totally wasting my youth. I do not know ! Maybe they are right and maybe not. I just never found the right girl, I do not want a perfect girl. I just need a girl who just loves and understands me verbally or non-verbally. I believe that there is no right way to follow excepts the instinct's way. That is what I follow which may or may not take me where I wanna be. Since there is no way to know future and I do not what is the right way, I must follow my instinct as it is the only that is available and I hope it works out all well. 

How to make right choices in life by Jitu Das philosophy

How to take right choices in life ?

when you are young, the world seems so confusing filled with choices. Its not as easy as choosing biggest piece of cake like I used to do when... I was a kid. 
Your birth was no chosen by you. Your first school was no chosen by you. That is why your early childhood days were easy, because you did not have to take big choices that will later create your life even though you would never even wonder that your life could have been something else. As you grow older, as you become 12 or 13, the world begins to display choices before. Watch T.V., play or study, what you are gonna do. But I have always chosen T.V., because it took me everywhere, to the world of animation to the world of Bollywood. I was so much into Bollywood till I was 15, then I got introduced to world cinemas, Hollywood, French, Persian, Chinese, Japanese and my world became much wider and yet clear. When I was a kid, back then when Mankind entered to 21st century. In 2000, I had not a slightest, tiniest idea that the world was so Awesome. In 2000, I was 9 years old. At that all I knew was school, home , play ground, Disney cartoons, Shaktiman, Jai Hanuman, may be I learned to pray to god ( Rama,Krishna and Shiva ). What was I doing at that time ! I do not remember much, its grainy but some parts are crystal clear. My world was so small when I was a child. What was my hobby back then ! I used to draw a lot. I used to go to sleep early, wake up late and spend my day at school till 3 pm. Then I was brought back home by my father or my elders cousins by bicycle. After eating my lunch, I used to watch a film in DD National( this channel was way better than any Hindi channel there is now in India ) everyday. My favourite heroes were Dharmendra, Jitendra, Mithun, Sunil Setty, Aksay Kumar, Gobinda, Sahrukh Khan. 
At that time, I used to think that my aim was to become a doctor. I wanted to become a doctor until I graduated, Then a wind of change came to my life and my aim was gone and I had no real interest in it. I had no idea my life was going to be so different. As I graduated my high school, I knew something has changed and it was beyond me. I could not figure it out what I want to be in my life. What did I do that I see infinite possibilities ? Now I know that you are not the one who is controlling your life. Is there fate or karma ? How to know that what you are doing now is not your choice ? what if I tell you that everything you do, everything you see happens and the energy that made it happen originates from the Big bang. So, time is passing and time means movements. Our life is moving to one direction. You can not go back. Your choices have already made you who you are and you can not change to undo the impacts of those earlier choices. But what is the right decision to make. You can not know what is the right choice unless you make the choice, because you just can not predict the future and others choice does not help because everyone is different. So, you make a choice and live life. You can not run away from life, you must make a choice. What is the right choice you should take ? Should you dream ? Should you follow your dream ? But what will you need more than anything in the world ? You will need to be alive more than anything in the world. What can keep you alive ? Is it money, love or regrets. Of course it is love that keeps you alive. I an now living well only because of the love of my family. In life, do not worry about what is the right choice you should take as long as you follow your heart to find your true love, it could for anything. Because true love is what keeps us truly alive.

Be honest to yourself.Accept who you are.  No matter  how many people tells you not to dream big. Just because your dreams are bigger for them that does not you have to get scared just because they are scared to dream big. Some days will be very hard, you would feel like you are gonna burst from inside if you do not do something about that. You must then accept who you really are. Most people do not know who they  really  are ,what they really want.

 Do not worry so much who you are because now I have realised that to know what you love is more important than to know yourself.If you know it for sure what you really love then it is more than enough.

Do not worry too much what is the right choice. Always remember that there is not right way, excepts the instincts way. Just follow what you love, do not think or question anymore.Just follow your love, just follow your heart and instinct.You will never regret. Just follow the LOVE that you are sure in your heart,mind and soul.

How I got into Philosophy by Jitu Das Stories

HOW I GOT INTO PHILOSOPHY

I got into philosophy to find my self. I have no idea what is right choice in life ? When I was 15, a question struck my mind while I was walking on a bridge of bamboo over a small river with a friend. The questio...n was why there is a world and we are in it but why ? What is the purpose of all this. Its been 7 years I am trying to figure out and make a sense out even if it only satisfies me. Then another question changed my life. This question came to me when I was 18 years old. What is reality ? That was the question. What we see is not real, we are human we have evolved to see that way we see now. But other animals sees the world different. Then what is the real color of the objects ? Then I would have forgotten these questions in time. But for me now the greatest question is am I making choices in life ? Am I living well enough ? What is the ideal living ? I want to live and then die ? But what to do with my life ? Possibilities are making me very confuse. Even though, anyway I must figure it out myself. They say that there is a flow of life. I do not know what is this flow of life ? How do I know that I am flowing with life ? Does flowing with life means a easy life or it means agreeing with those who talks about how one should live his life. Life is a one time chance, I do not want it to be perfect, I just want to know what do I really need to be to live in peace. I want peace of mind and body. I do not want to think. But I can not help myself. Maybe I should have never watch so much films, read books or listen music. Maybe I should have never try to know what am I here and what can I do best. But everything that happens with life, can not be just the results of choices we made. There must be something that drives our life and we do not even notice it. We call it fate. If not fate then what ? Am I choosing to write this or some catalyst from the environment is making me do it. Are we just only reacting to the environment. Then everything we did was a reaction of the acts of nature and environment. Its getting cold as the winter comes, we are wearing sweaters, taking heat from fire, wearing blankets etc. Think about it. All you can do react either physically or virtually or in thoughts. You must react.

O pappad wale panga na le – Makdee ( 2002), one of my favorite song when I was 13 years old. Those days were more fun when I was akid and 7- 13 years old. I wish I could go back to those time and spend a month or two. Well, but that is not possible now untill the time machine is invented. May be you feel that too. May be you too remember the good old days witha song, book or a film or by a place you visited.
 I remember my child hood days with the cartoons, school and home. There is no other way I could remembermy childhood day without having the family, relatives, cartoons, films,song or book and school, to relate with. Without them I could not have something to remember in relation with.

 Our memory works like the  Google  search engine. We think or remember of something and it is like searching something in google. Google gives 10 results or link to what you were searching, so does mind gives you the related links of what you were thinking. Somehow I though of childhood days and a film came to my mind, the title of the film is Makdee. It was released in 2002. The film was directed, written by Vishal Bhardwaj. I got to watch the film in 2004, when I was 13 years old and was studying in class six. This film reminds me of those simple days when having fun was the main aim of my life.

 Now I am 22, and I know growing up is not fun and these young adult days are the hardest, most confusing time of my life. But a kid is free from the unnecessary worries. When I was a kid my world was very small, school, playground, 10 friends , home and family. That was my small happy world and now I know it is very big world, all the progress, all the knowlege of mankind like an giant ocean.

 Everyday advancement of science and technology, would you leave it all and live in 2004. May be I would if I could. This is what happens to everyone. You cry to go back in a time you love, now remembering that those days were great and if you knew how great those days were at that time, you would had been more grateful.
But we are never grateful to present, to this moment. Well growing up has taught me some good things too.

 A chinese philosopher, Lin Yutang said to enjoy life more than anything else.And poetry taught me see that there is always something worthwhile going on. Some great films taught me to hope for a better future, even when the life isat a odd position to hope. Biology taught me that we are all made of elements, the elements which were created when a star died. So, we are all made of stardust. Physics taught me that reality is we see and feel is also relative justlike time and space is relative. Well, we are not live here forever.

In my case my childhood days are over, and I can not get to live those days again. Here, now I am in my young adult days feeling thechange, progress of mankind, science and technology.

 There are two ways you can spend your life.Living in now,in this moment learning from the mistakes of yesterday or you can live like that past matters more than now. Do not get confused with who you were and who you are now. Just like I am not that 12 years kid anymore. My ideas, knowlegde arenot same anymore too. Somehow I am not now what I was, but what I was is a part of whole newme.

I am like a wall of brick, and the bricks are the time of life and ideas, thoughts and experiences along with time. And I need to accept that fact. These times are may be hard and most confusing but 10 years later these days would seem like great days. Maybe it is the time to do what my heart, instinct tells me to so that I do not have regret after 10 years for not listening to my heart, for not making the best out of right now.

The idea of devil was created by those men who sucks the life of general people. The politicians are the people who controls the people and yet in 21st century people believe in the characters of ancient stories just like the really exist. To live ignorant may be easy but to live enlightened is much more amazing. The heaven and hell both lies in earth. Its your choices what to know, what to believe that creates your world. If you believe without questioning the people of religions who are as much human as you are, then it is your choice of life.


When you would pray you would look up, like there is a heaven and angles and you would look down as if there is a hell below the ground. Your world looks like as much as the knowledges you have gained or choose to learn. Your world is not similar to mine, and yet we all live in a same planet earth. Do you know what makes me sad most, the people with ignorance, who have no curiosity or questions. What shape people to behave in such way that from generation to generation, people are living the same life. The same killing each other, raping women, fighting for lands, corrupted governments, and people of religions are still fooling most people even in this age where science and technology has take us moon, mars. Still many people pray to moon. When I was a kid, my elders used to say that there are dinosaurs on mars. I believed that all my childhood.

 Now we have Hubble telescope to see thousand light years far away into the other galaxy. We live in a galaxy called Milky way. Our neighbor galaxy is Andromeda. The point is that you should be curious more than anything else.

 Curious about what ? You might ask me. Be curious about life, world and universe. Do not be afraid, do not panic, your job is not discover the God( the ultimate truth about life,time and universe) on your own. All you have to do is question openly what is disturbing you. Do not pretend like those people (who created religions) that you know god. God is neither a male or female person. But the people of religions always taught you a female human being is inferior to male human. That is not the truth. Female humans are as important as the male humans are. Both male and female need each other more than they can ever imagine. Men can not live with women and women can not live without men. When I look at parents, I think that they are best parents I could ever have. If they did not love each other and lived separately I could not dream of a family.


I do not understand why people believe in ghosts, witch and spirits. Remember, you know it is the truth, you have never seen a real ghost,witch or spirit other than in arts. Always remember that art never tells the exact truth, art is a manifestation of a human mind, just like dreams. Sometime dreams are like memories and years after you would not be able to distinguish between memories and dreams.


I remember my childhood and those memories are about 16 years old. Those images are still stored in my neurons of brain. It is so wonderful how brain works and the way body works so fluently and fast with the direction of the brain, it is just mind-boggling, if you can imagine that. Those images and small video clips of my childhood,they we captured by eyes and ear. Still I remember the first day of school. It is stranger than you and I can imagine. I remember growing up here, studying in school, college here in Pathsala town. Even though it feels so strange like an fantasy, the time is relative. That is why perception of time also changes and that is why it feels like yesterday, when I visited my grandfather, who gave me 50-50 biscuits.
My grandfather had died when I was a kid. Is he in heaven ? No, I do not think so. He was cremated 10 years ago and one day I will also be cremated. 

Death is a part of life. I am not saying that death is a gateway to heaven or hell. We are all made of cells. Cells are made of elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen,nitrogen, calcium, phosphorous and other elements. When we get cremated, the organs of our body disintegrates to those elements and then these elements gets mixed with the universe again.

The elements were created when the stars were exploded, so we are made of the star dusts. And that is why we feel a longing to the stars and the sky. So, when I would die, I will be cremated and my organs will again become free elements and again the elements that was within my every cell will return to the universe and thus even though I will be dead,the elements of my each cell will live forever.

How I became an romantic and a philosopher part 1 by Jitu Das life stories

Out there, there is always more than your eyes can see. It is never the truth that it seems to be. The color and all the things you see all around you, in your room, outside in the street. Look at whatever you want, you will see only a fraction of what it really is. I am not talking seeing the surface of the whole object, I am talking about seeing a fraction of the surface. The colors you see of a object is a different one for an other animals. A red rose is not way it look in reality. The rose when absorbs all the other color of light but reflects the red color,it looks red. I saw about this on t.v. When I was 12 to 13 years old. From that moment my world was not real anymore and I started finding everything interesting and thus life itself became the most interesting and deepest thing for me and I became a romantic.




 I started to see beauty in sunrise,clouds,sky and sunset. The sunshine though the leaves became a great source of joy and I felt beauty in many things that other members of my family and friends overlooked. When I see green young leaves shining though the sunshine, it gives me joy that I can not explain.It feels like there is beauty all around us where we live, and yet we only see where the dirt is. There are Ashoka flowers in my yard, I see butterfly ad bees flying around sucking sweet honey from the flower.





The literature and films has made an romantic. The films of Shakespear’s play has made me realized the beauty of poetry. In my childhood I was not interested in poetry, because our english teachers taught us to memorize the poems from the english text book.But I was never interested in memorizing from my childhood, still I do not like memorize texts.For memorizing without feeling and understanding the subject is parrot learning.I could never do that. I search for creation of new things more. I did not felt the poetry untill I was 15 or 16, when I was in class 9 or 10,That is when somehow I became interested in literature and films,and I saw it, the vast ocean of literature, arts, philosophy. I did not know where this interest was leading me to, because from that moment I was not the same person I used to be.I knew not how to name the feeling, but there was always a feeling, so beautiful and great and yet so hard to name the feeling, I was always curious about God, religion, life and world.Before the year 2000, I did not have any idea how big the world is, the vast human knowledge, I was 8 years old when I read about Y2K in a science magazine, I did not understood what it was. Before the year 2000, we did not have color t.v, but then in 2002, we bought a color t.v, because my father promised me, he would bought us a color t.v, if India enters the final in cricket world cup. India did enter final but lost the game.





After the color t.v, we got cable connection, there I could see the National geography, and the channels of Bollywood films, there was a channel of english films star movies. In the films I saw a world, I never thought that there was. Before cable connection, we had only two government channels called DD national and DD metro and I used to watch all the cartoons. broadcasted on metro channel, there was numerous cartoons broadcasted on these two channels in the evening, but now metro does not even exist and DD national is same as dead. Those were great time, I was in a quest to discover new unknown things or words. I learned hindi watching the Disney cartoons. There was Hercules, that cartoon series was great, I used to feel amazing, every evening I could see that greek mythology. When we got cable, I could see more cartoons zee t.v and star plus, but now, these two channels are not great they used to be. Batman, spiderman,superman,hulk,iron man, justice league,fantastic four they were all my favourite, I have spent many great times watching those cartoons. My most favorite cartoon was Duck tales, it was full of adventure and mystery, Oh those days were great.Without those cartoons, my childhood would have been something else, I would have been someone else now doing something else, not writing about those times. Everyday it was adventure, school in the morning, then after all day at school, lunch at home then cricket at the field nearby. Then after cricket, all sweating and tiredness, I used to wash my hands and mouth, then I watch those great cartoons, which have a great impact in my life.




Even though I was not interested in english films, because my parents used to think they are dirty. All these years till when I was 16, I have watched numerous films of Bollywood. In my childhood, Mithun was my favourite actor, because he used to fight with the bad guys all alone. Then my favorite hero was Akshay kumar, Sunil Setty, Gobinda.




I know that I would not have been me if I did not watched these devotional serials like Mahabharata, Krishna, Vishnu Purana, Ganga maiya, which have created a great wonder and curiosity in me about God, life and vastness of universe. As the great book Gita says that all the universe is within the Great god Krishna.





I used to wonder and wonder about it, but there was no answer. Besides these, every thursday, a holy book ”Vagabata” was read by an old man, and 10 to 15 people used to come to listen. It was giant book written in verses praising the god and the stories of saints. It took 5 years to complete the whole book. Every thursday it was a holy day for us, our feelings used to be different every evening the holy book ”Vagabata ” was read in a melody. There verses were not tough to understood, because the words were originated from a great ancient language ”Sanskrit”. Three readers completed that book,one was a saint, who had left his family to praise God Krishna, but he could not finish that book, then there was an old watchman of Pathsala girl’s high school, but he died, then came a man from a village nearby, who completed the book. Everyday thursday evening, that book was read for 1 hour, and we used to serve them tea, sweets,cookies and cakes. Among these old people that used to come to listen the reading, two of them are dead by now. So, this is life. we live and we die.



I was growing up very fast, I went to high school, that books was finished, thursday was no more different , it became just an day of the week. Then in the world of t.v. a new channel called discovery came. I was mesmerized the documentaries of BBC, the documentaries about physics.




When I entered in class 9, I never knew that my life was about to change, I was about to enter in the world of cinema, art and philosophy. Meanwhile I read books like the invisible man, The Frankenstein, The 20000 leagues under the sea, Doctor Jackyl and Hyde, these science fictions opened a door in my mind that I never know of. The science fictions inspired me to think and imagine and I thought and thought and thought.





I felt poetry for the first time when I was 16, it was a poem by Wordsworth about sitting under a tree, where the creepers were dancing, the birds were all chirping. I was no into poetry before that, because poetry was never taught us to feel, the english teachers only taught us to memorize the poems for exams, even the poems were translated in Assamese, they were never taught us as the way they should have, that is what I think. But now I know poems are not written to memorize them, they are written for enhance feeling, to widen the capacity of imagination. Poems are written to make others feel what the poet once felt. Poems are written, and we feel happy and sad as the poet express his feeling through in a creative way.




 Literature is thus a connection of human hearts, so that one can feel the joy and pain of each other.This is how we share our problems and solutions and help each other out whoever in need or desperate.




Before I entered class 9, I was not into english films but I had watched some great science fiction films when I was in highschool, like Terminator, species, Zathura, Jumangi. I had watched three great films when I was in class 4 or 5, these two were Jurassic Park, the stuart  little.




In class 9, when I was 15 years old, in a afternoon, I was all alone in my home and there was no good programmes in hindi channels that I usually watch. Then I enter the button 4, it was star movies and there a film started named ” Mr. Talented Ripley” and I was absorbed by that film. Matt Damon was damn good at acting, later I saw that story in a hindi film, Then the next film was Love in the time of Cholera, then the next and the next …. and from that day in 2007, I have watched films everyday and now the numbers of films I have watched in these 10 years is more than 1000.





But human heart and mind never become satisfied, for some reasons satisfaction is good, and for some reasons satisfaction is not good. As long as the people will be curious about life, world and universe, human will never be satisfied. But if you want to satisfied, accept any religion,because every religion explains that there is a heaven up above the sky and a hell below the ground, so if you want to satisfied take religions and if you want to create something new, learn more about life and universe and if you want to do great works, you can not become satisfied then.




Satisfaction will lead mankind into dark ages, just like religions once lead the world into dark age, but when the greek philosophy,literature and books were discovered again in 12 th century,a new age came, the age of light, where mankind wants to seek for the truth, the people who were discovering truth, the religious people killed them calling them witch or evil.Leo nardo da Vinci, who invented the telescope, was locked in the prison,The Roman Catholic Church’s Inquisition brought him to a central Roman market square, his tongue in a gag, tied to a pole naked and burned at the stake, on February 17, 1600. Giordano Bruno (Italian pronunciation: [dʒorˈdano ˈbruno]; 1548 – February 17, 1600) (Latin: Iordanus Brunus Nolanus), born Filippo Bruno, was an Italian Dominican friar, philosopher, mathematician, astrologer and astronomer. His cosmological theories went beyond the Copernican model: he proposed the Sun was essentially a star, and that the universe contained an infinite number of inhabited worlds populated by other intelligent beings. The Roman Inquisition found him guilty of heresy and he was burned at the stake. After his death he gained considerable fame, particularly among 19th- and early 20th-century commentators who, focusing on his astronomical beliefs, regarded him as a martyr for free thought and modern scientific ideas. But, now religions can not kill scientists like that. Science is a part our life.Without scinece technology human world would not work.






I am an young adult now. The stage of life when we all get confused about our goal and meaning of life and I was also confused when I entered 20, suddenly the idea of life changed to me. I had no idea who I am, who I am going to be. It was all very fancy to even think about it. I couldn’t see where my life was going. But, I knew and I believed that everyone has something, and the purpose of life is to discover who you really are. Socrates said to know thyself. And I started to study myself to know who I really am ? Before I passed my 12th class,that time was different to me. What I think now possible was impossible to 4 years ago.I always felt something within me, was trying to say out loud, something flickering , like a forgotten dreams, some fragments of true self was always there, but they were recessive, but now they are becoming dominant. When I started reading books about philosophy, I found out that man has suffered from the thoughts about the meaning in life, destiny, karma. I read about Socrates, Aristotle, Confucius, Rene Dekart, Kant, Henry David Thoreau, Mahatma Gandhi, Lin Yutao, Carl Sagan,Woody Allen, Douglas Adams. It is mind boggling to know that from Socrates of 2000 years ago till today, meaning of life has been great karizma to the philosophers. If you are an young man or an young adult, and you have confusion about who you are? And who you want to become in life. My dear reader, you must study philosophy and psychology. To know who you are you must read books on Human nature, read poetry, novels different genre, watch films and listen to music. 2 years ago, there were so many questions, and now there are some answers I have found. Finally, the meaning of life is getting clear to me, the road was all dark and full of mist, now its getting clear to me. The thoughts and questions of our existence in the universe was troubling me, now I have found answers to calm my mind. The atheist have no new idea,except they don’t believe in god. I would rather think more then sitting down and claiming that there is no God. I will believe in God, god who is beyond everything, every religion. So, I believe in God, not in religion. God is all I need and god is everywhere. I know that I am only a human. I always wanted to share with the world,what I know and feel about life. So, I started writing this blog 1 year ago, I write in my blog from life, family to philosophy, psychology to film, music, poetry and about my great country India and about my green state, the only land where the world’s biggest river island”MAJULI” and smallest river island ” UMANANDA” exist. I live in Assam, where endangered one horned Rhinoceros are found. Assam is the also world famous for its tea. I am an Assamese, my mother language is Assamese and my national language is Hindi.

Why I want to write by Jitu Das life stories

My hand

For me writing has been always fun, I can write anything I want, I can write about my current feelings, yes but feelings too swings like the thoughts, I can’t say that I wanted to write this, this is the fun part of writing, you can never be so sure what your next sentence is gonna be ! I used to draw the comic characters in my childhood more than reading textbook, I remember it was when I was 7 year old, Spiderman was my favourite superhero. But ofcourse this is not all I used to do.
This blog is about ” Knowing myself”. I will be honest as much as I can. So in this article I am writing about Why I want to write. What makes me want to write about anything, I believe I could know myself with the help of this site.
To know myself more I have to close my eyes sit in a time machine in my memory to go back , imagine if you can.

Here I go , I was born in GMC in Guwahati, in a beautiful and world famous state called Assam of Holy country India,( you may also know Holy books ‘Gita’ , ‘ Mahabharata’ , Ramayana , Vagabata, you must know about , it is the birth of ‘Hindu’ dharma( religion ) , Buddhism , sikh, Jain and many other religeon , So its a important country for everyone who seeks spiritual joy , thats why India is world famous. Here I am talking about why I want to write. I think I found some reason to write. I live in Assam , which is world famous for its tea and culture. I am an Assamese , my culture is full of diversity. Here in Assam we celebrate three great festival and they are called Magh Bihu , Bohag Bihu and Kati Bihu.

1.Mah Bihu is also called Bhogali bihu. This Bihu or festival is all about eating different foods . Here in Assam we do produce rice mostjy. Many pitha or cake are made by assamese womens , they are very good making pitha, In the uruka night ( the day before the bihu start.) its in 14 th january. So the uruka night in the country place people go to nearby field and make a huge traditional party( the significance is gatherling of people , when people share their feeling, discuss many things , have fun, some young people play Bihu song and dance . The crops are being gathered from the field and put them in ” Bharal ghar” ( storgae house ). From the december the cultivator start to gathers the rice, it means if you come to Assam now you will see crop filled with busy cultivation gathering rice. So I am waiting for the new year now. In Magh Bihu people eats chicken , ducks , goat and pig. And with tea we eat ‘Gura sandah’ ( grinded rice after frying) by ‘Dheki’ ( an instrument to grind made of wood.

1. Bohag Bihu is my  favorite  Bihu festival. We celebrate this festival in the month of april for 7 day. First you must know that in Assam , most Assamese make money of rupees with their crop. So in Bohag Bihu its time to have some fun and meet relatives , friends, women make different type of pitha ( cakes) , ladoo etc etc. Its the time of when we go to see Bihu dance all tha. Its getting boring I am not going to write anymore about our culture. So get me back to my topic why I want to write , I don’t know it , forget it , I don’t need to know why I want to write. Actually I am tired of writing all these things , na kidding , I can keep writing with no food, no water, ha ha. I am joking again, thats why I write  , I find it enjoyable. To tell you the truh I am watching the film ” Fantastic. Mr.Fox. ~ I find it hilarious watch film. Its really fantastic animated movie. Its a story fox , beaver , opossum and what not and three ugly farmer Boggis , Bunce and Bean , also these horrible creature are not equally mean.
