Travelling for life.

Working for daily wages to make a living, the workers did not get the benefits of working loyally for a company. They could not pay the rent to live under a shed. No arrangement for food as well. The government did help these people to fill their tummy, but could not manage to provide it to every needy. Could be many reasons, maybe the population that falls under the daily wage workers or bad management to provide food to them.

In search of living the only option which is left for these workers is to leave their places and travel back to their hometown. Though trains and buses were arranged for travelling, many workers did not manage to grab the help because of availability of seats and the prices they had to pay to travel. Thus, they decided to manage travelling on their own. Travelling meant walking miles away back to their hometown.

They somehow managed to arrange food they would require in between the journey, which was not sufficient for all the days but 1 or 2. The father carried luggage and kids on the shoulder and again proved a hero in this world. The mother on the other hand tied their infants by the back with a cloth proving their ability to never let their kids suffer the pain. Walking for an hour was easy for them, but beyond that it was tedious. People standing with a bottle of water and biscuits for them became no less than a god. Walking on the tar roads in the burning sun, sweaty cloths, dust in the eyes and much more hurdles than we could even think about. Maybe they could have hoped that in the way someone could give them a lift to somewhere bringing close to their destination. But the roads were empty and quiet making it more worse for them. They spent the nights sleeping below a tree and still afraid of what worse could happen in their life.

When a news reporter in a metro city interviewed these workers on how they managed to travel half way, one of them said "nikal toh gaye hain bina soche samjhe zindagi ke liye. Zinda rahe to ghar par honge aur nahi rahe toh baat hi khatam. Koi puchne nahi aayega". Meaning, "without thinking much about the consequences, we have left already. If alive, we would reach home and if not, then nobody would care about it. They are actually experiencing a journey with hurdles and pain. The happiness of a bottle of water or a bread to eat is a blessing that one could get.

Help the needy and make them reach their destination along with their family. Be an unknown person in their travel journey that they could never forget. They need a hope for living. They need a hope for their life. They need you.

How to travel virtually.

Is it too mundane to be at home these days? Want to travel being at home?
I found a way to do so.With the help of Google earth mobile app or web app, we could travel to almost any corner of the world. The best part is it would only require few bucks spent on the internet. All you need to get over is the actual experience of the place and hotel room service. But you could prepare yourself to learn about the places you want to see.

You could download this free app from the mobile phone's app store. The display icon would be like

Google earth

This app consists of multiple features. The few best ones are

orbit in the 3D world, street view and detailed description of famous tourist attractions and monuments. The 3D and the street view would serve the best for the travel purpose. The app has huge data centers holding plethora of images of the streets in the world. You could experience being in the city, top of a mountain peak, near a beach or walking down a market lane only by your device. The app is a must to make the most of the lockdown period and get to know about the cities or places you want to visit when you are set free.

The blissful mind

Our mind is busy observing, knowing, thinking, feeling, reasoning, remembering, imagining, wishing, judging and in lots of such activities. All these processes controls your life throughout.
Our day to day life is so much engrossed into various activities such that it is difficult to control our mind and instead our mind controls us.

We all possess inner powers but they are often in a dormant state. In order to awaken these inner powers we need to train our mind using three principles: concentration, willpower and self-discipline.

Studying for exams in order to shape your future, working for a corporate, handling a business empire, creating content for entertainment and what not. The mind is a constantly working part of the body that too needs rest at certain point of time. It becomes necessary to make a peace from the hustle and do whatever makes you feel better.

For me its mountains where I felt I was alive. I like mountains because they help me sort out whats important in life. It was never being on the top and watching each and everything is small for me. Rather it is always standing down and feeling small while trying to reach at the top. The best thing about mountains is that when you reach the top, it gives you a feeling of achievement and its wild enough to let it be. I was at peace.

A peaceful mind is a blissful mind. It is free from the compulsion of the incessant of restless thinking and worrying. When thoughts do not disturb the tranquility of mind, you experience inner happiness.
