Amazing People :)

What the Luck !

He worked by day

And toiled by night.

He gave up play

And some delight.

Dry books he read,

New things to learn.

And forged ahead,

Success to earn.

He plodded on with

Faith and pluck;

And when he won,

Men called it luck.

The story and the myth..

A Story? A Myth? A Reality?

Story 1:

Long ago there existed a vigilante, a crime fighter named Batman in the Gotham City. He had a place called the BatCave which was his liar. He fought crime, helped people, lodged criminals behind bars and made the city happy. He also had a superhuman friend 'Superman' whose abilities included flight, superstrength, x-ray vision and heat rays. Both of them lived on this earth hundreds of year back.

How do we know this? From the books (comics) of Batman & Superman written few years back. Is there any other proof that they existed? No, but faith of millions can't be wrong, and they must have existed. Do the stories look convincing? Yes they do. Deoes everyone believe in this? No, but some of the people(DC comics followers) on this earth do.

Current Situation:

There is another group of people who believe only in Spiderman (Marvel comics followers), and they believe he is the only superhero who existed on this planet. Do they have any proof (except comic book)? No. Any evidence? No. They've built his memorial in the Gotham city. Now DC followers and Marvel followers fight for the ownership of this, with Marvel followers saying this is a Memorial dedicated to their beloved Spiderman, and DC followers saying this is the birthplace of Batman, and they hold the ownership of this site


Find this story idiotic? Foolish? People believing in the characters of some comic book story which has no material evidence? Find it hard to believe how some people can believe in just a story so much that they fight over the characters? Now read this story:

Story 2:

Long ago there existed aa avatar of God, a demon fighter named Rama in the Ayodhya City. He had a place called the Ayodhya which was his liar. He fought demons, helped people, lodged miscreants behind bars and made the city happy. He also had a superhuman friend 'Hanuman' whose abilities included flight and superstrength. Both of them lived on this earth thousands of year back.

How do we know this? From the books of Rama & Hanuman (Ramayana) written few thousands years back. Is there any other proof that they existed? No, but faith of millions can't be wrong, and they must have existed. Do the stories look convincing? Yes they do. Deoes everyone believe in this? No, but some of the people(Hindus) on this earth do.

Current Situation:

There is another group of people who believe only in Allah (Islam followers), and they believe he is the only God who existed on this planet. Do they have any proof (except their holy book)? No. Any evidence? No. They've built his mosque in the Ayodhya city. Now Hindus and Muslims fight for the ownership of this, with Muslims saying this is a Memorial dedicated to their beloved Allah, and Hindus saying this is the birthplace of Rama, and they hold the ownership of this site



Some people will find the first story utterly foolish, and the second story reality (based on the faith of millions). But as you notice, the only difference in both the stories is that one was written some 40-50 years back, and the other one some 1000 years back. But most of the people would laugh at the first story calling it as a figment of imagination, and hail the second one and true to the core. They will reject the characters of Batman, Superman, and Spiderman as 'imaginary' characters, but will believe in Rama, Hanuman and Allah so much so that they'll worship them daily and owe their existence to them.

What an irony!!

Job Satisfaction

Nothing good ever came of job satisfaction

Satisfaction is the warm, beery glow
that reassures you, 'all's well with the world'

It is the velvety welcome of a deep
soft couch, and a 32" TV.

It soothes, lulls and makes do
with words like perks and pak hikes

It always seeks the incremental, never the exponential

Satisfaction goes, "Hush, hush",
when ambition raises its voice

It hates hunger. It dulls your edge.

It holds you back.

Satisfaction is the nemesis of the entrepreneur,

who knows this satisfaction

never really buit anything

Ladakh Trip..

It has been 6 months since I visited Ladakh where I decided to write this blog so that I could revisit it to refresh the memories of my best ever trip. Anyways, better late then never, so here it goes...



THE TRIP
When I went to Triund (Mcleodganj), I was not sure whether this trip would happen or not. While returning, I was sleeping in the train when all of a sudden, I decided to make a trip to Ladakh.

The preparations started – woollens packed, maps printed, itinerary researched, flights booked, and so on.



The day was 8th July, when we started our journey from the Kashmere Gate ISBT.


DAY 1 & 2: DELHI - MANALI



We were going to Manali from Delhi, which was an arduous 16 hrs of journey and that too pinned down on a seat in a bus. Our ass got numbed, but we reached Manali at around 12:30 PM in the noon.



The hotel was the same one where we stayed when we went to Manali in January, and the room was also the same. What a coincidence! Actually it was no big deal since the hotel didn’t have too many guests.

We had decided to rest completely in Manali, and actually we needed that rest. After the ass-numbing journey we had to prepare ourselves for what lay ahead – 2 days of hill travel, and that too on one of the most uncomfortable road in the world, and not to forget the most inhospitable conditions.

DAY 3 : MANALI - SARCHU
The journey started next morning – infact the REAL journey started. We left Manali at around 6 AM, had our breakfast on the way and reached Rohtang La (‘La’ means a mountain pass, and it’ll be used in this a number of times).





Rohtang la wasn’t that picturesque and amazing as we had imagined it to be, as it hadn’t snowed there. We had another round of breakfast there and took out our woollens as it was cold. We were at 12,500 ft above sea level.





From Rohtang, the roads started showing their true colours. The road actually vanished, and it was replaced by a dusty road. Anyways we had expected that, and we were mentally prepared for this, so didn’t have much problem. What we were afraid of was the infamous Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), that happens over 10,000 ft and causes nausea, vomiting and headaches. We were actually waiting for it.







But the surroundings !! They were amazing. The best landscapes I had ever seen in my life (I didn’t have any idea that the best was yet to come :) ) I kept on clicking photographs after photographs, and the landscaped continued to be better and better.
We crossed a number of passes that day, including Baralacha la (14,500 ft, most beautiful of them all) and Lachulung La (10,500 ft).











The roads were sometimes cut through ice (not snow), streams were flowing on the road which could be crossed by a good 4 wheel drive only (a sardaarji tried to cross it by his WagonR, and had to be rescued by the truck drivers).




We reached Sarchu at around 7 PM. Sarchu is Midway between Manali and Leh, and is a point where people stop for their night stay. The panoramic view of the mountains was amazing at Sarchu. We booked one the tents, freshened up and relaxed. We saw a cricket bat and a ball, and started playing cricket. Trust me, at 14,000 ft you shouldn’t exert too much, which we actually did, resulting in some huffs and puffs, and had to rest to bring our breath under control.

DAY 4: SARCHU – LEH

The following morning we started from Sarchu and travelled across the majestic Himalayas. We passed through passes like Tanglang-la (2nd highest pass in the world), Lachulung-la and many more. We reached Ladakh in the evening















Since the blog is becoming long so from her I’ll be writing main attractions with photographs

Leh: roaming around the city, trying to explore the stuff and getting acclimatized



Panagong Tso (panagong lake): Trip by Tata Safari. Went through Chang-la and reached the most beautiful and the biggest lake in the country (143 kms long, max 6 kms wide, 1/3rd in India and 2/3rd in China)














Khardungla Trek: We hired two Bullet Thunderbirds and started the best part of our journey. The road through Khardungla pass to the Nubra Valley (Siachen Glacier Base camp) is the highest motorable road in the World at 18,380 feet. It was snowing heavily an was very difficult to drive due to the ice on the road and due to the fact that we were wet throughout.









We stayed in a place called Dikshit.







There was a rock-show organised by the Tibetens in the night.


Next day, we visited Hunder, the place with the Sand Dunes and two humped camels.
Visited Panamik for the hot springs but is was just a trickle of Sulfur-water, just enough to wash our hands.







While returning captured some beautiful moments in the camera
The owner of the hotel was most polite and humble in serving us. We had dinner in his nice kitchen in Ladakhi style. We talked a lot to him about Indian and Tibetan Buddhism, state of Ladakh, atrocities by army, life in the winters, terrorism etc. It was nice to know about these things from a person who is actually living there.






Went on the Leh-Kargil road. The view was amazing. The place where Indus and Zanskar river meet is breathtaking.





Observed the phenomenon of Magnetic hill. It was an Illusion but a good one.







Ladakh was beautiful from the Sky. These are the pictures from my flight.











I feel really sad not to be able to add all the photos. Each one of them is amazing. They are stored at http://picasaweb.google.com/ashu.iitkgp/LadakhTrip#

In short, an AMAZING trip. I'll definitely go back to Ladakh.
