About Me

My photo
Introducing one-self is not easy,its like giving an open book exam.You have all the resources available with you in exam but you prefer to write what you remember rather than wasting time in searching. Similarly while you introduce your self, you see what other's introductions are having & just copy and paste their hobby as your Hobby, their interest as your interest. You never see whats there inside you. I never find easy to articulate my self so here I am....expressing my self to the world, to see myself from inside.... The first step is to give my formal introduction.... My self Nikhilesh(aka nicky) also supposed to be an electronics engineer. Have done M.TECH. in Optical Communication from IIT DELHI. I was in TU/Eindhoven (The Nehterlands) for one year as a research scholar. Currently I am working as a SW QA Engg in Infinera Bangalore. My views are generally optimistic. While doing any work, the last thing I would do is to loose hope. People say I am innocent but I know the depth of innocency. I like to be with myself but I am not agoraphobiac, instead I love to travel. I am charged by observing different people and their cultures.

Why to complicate life???

When the difficult time comes
When life doesn't show you the path
When there is struggle in life
But if you can smile and walk then why to frown...
Why to complicate life???

When some misunderstanding happens,
When relationship becomes sour,
But if you can talk and sort out then why to remain silent and be disturbed....
Why to complicate life ??

When you don't see the future,
When things are not clear and everything is dark
But worrying will not give you what you want, then why to worry ?
Why to complicate life??

Life is not to be lazy, Life is not to procrastinate.
Life is to live lively, Life is to celebrate, Life is to enjoy.
Life is to care, Life is to being true to your self.

Life is the reflection of our own mind

All that we are is result of what we have thought!!!
-- Buddha

The events in our life reflects what our mind perceives.
How much we may try to make up....but the expressions reflects what thoughts received.
Its all reflection of our own mind.

The tendencies to blame every things around, The person, the time or the situation but our own mind.
Once we take attention from outer world to inner world, the conflict between the two resolve.
This science is one of its kind.
Its all reflection of our own mind.

We talk a lot, but fail to communicate.
We all become philosophers, we preach, we give lectures for long hours.
But never know what our own mind wants.
It's all reflection of our own mind.

The days passes, the nights passes, the time passes.
But the mind is stuck on one thought.
It's all the reflection of our own mind.

Let's come out of this whirlpool.
Let the mind play its drama.
Observe the thoughts, observe the mind and it's tricks.
Never bother about the feelings, Live the life on the commitment.
Let us resolve, not to entangle in the mystery of the mind.

The Change Is Inevitable

Plato once said, "The only thing is life which is constant is the change"

Many times in life, I want to be the same, why to bother, why to change the patterns which have rooted very deeply in our mind but other times I wish that I could change everything around me in a moment. The change is an endless phenomena which never ends weather we want it or not, it happens.
The change brings transformation sometimes in positive ways and some times in negative ways. We should have the skill to accept both the outcomes.

At subtle level, the mood and feelings changes with time. We get frustrated because of this change. Just being aware of the change is enough to reduce the repercussion of the change.
In life, the time changes. Good time comes, bad time comes, we just need to go through it either with suffering or with acceptance.
People changes, their mind changes, their perception changes. Even the loved ones may start hating you and the enemies may start loving you.
Our own mind changes with the time.
Our level of understanding changes, we become more mature with the experience and with the time.

The wise ones accept these inevitable changes and make their own mind free of all the juggleries because the most important thing is to save our own mind at any cost.

The weekend escape to Western Ghats

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.

- St. Augustine


It is a famous quote by St. Augustine. I personally would like to read the whole book again and again. There is no better experience than to travel and that too with strangers. It was a long weekend since Monday was Independence Day. All of my friends were having some or the other plans and I could not stay in Bangalore being aloof watching movies, sleeping and eating. Through meetups, I found BAT (Bangalore AdvenTurers) planning for 3 days trip to Coorg, Mangalore and Western Ghats. Without giving any next thought, I just registered for it. Had nice 3 days experience of the trip.

Day 1:
The day started dot on time. We left Bangalore at 4 in the morning. It was bit early but for a trip we could do any sacrifice. We were 12 Escapers in 3 Cars. Our first stop was Kodur for the Breakfast. We had long drive through the zig zag paths of Western Ghats. Going with strangers is always a fun. It makes your vision broad and you get to share cultures. Next we stopped at ApsaraKonda falls in the search of Apsaras. Unfortunately we didn’t find any Apsaras there. Taking bath in small but forceful waterfall was real fun. Now its evening time and there is no other better place to spend sun set time then beach. We went to ECO beach in Honnavar. It was a lovely spot with perfectly clean water and dazzling sunlight which was supposed to be party beach but it turned out to be a meditation beach. I did short but peaceful meditation there. The night we stayed in Honnavar. 


Day 2:
Next day early morning we left for Murudeshwar. The view of gigantic Shiva with Arabian Sea in the background was mesmerizing. The noon we spent at Turtle bay beach. It was a scenic route alongside the beaches. In between there were many points where we couldn't resist to stop our Cars. We entered into the sea on the Turtle bay beach and had lunch there in Turtle bay resort. The sea water was quite rough due to Mansoon. Pebbas Ice-cream parlor in Mangalore was our next stop. If you are going to Mangalore then it's a must go place. It started raining heavily. In between we stopped for very old and famous Chai. It was very different Chai with 3 layers. Night we stayed in Puttur.




Day 3:
Day 3 was very much experiential and amazing. We went through the Western Ghats. It was totally zig zag path and in between there were many small water falls. We went to Madikere in Coorg. It’s nice place for shopping of spices, dry fruits etc. we did some shopping there. Next we stopped at Malalli falls and it made our trip bit adventurous. The way was such that our Cars could not go on the top and it was raining like anything so we need to go by Jeep. The whole group was scattered and we were all drenched. But the view of the fall was amazing. Finally our trip ended but the memory will remain forever :)
Thanks BAT for organizing the trip.

Don't give any meaning to the dreams

In my dreams, I see some angels, in white robes with ever-lasting smile and magnificent aura.
In my dreams, all around I see colorful birds chirping, crystal water flowing, mammoth mountains echoing with full energy and enthusiasm.
I see the scenery not as a seer but as a part of it. I belong to the whole universe in my dream, infect I am the Universe in my dreams.
My mere imagination doesn't ends here, I am also part of the dream flying in the sky.
I have wings same like angels.
As if, I left the intellect on the ground and just enjoying the fresh air like never did before. At this moment, not thinking about the past or future but totally into the moment.
The small times seems to be an epoch in my dream. It seems I moved ahead of time. The big mind merges with the small mind in my dream.
I crossed all the seven layers of existence (body, breath, mind, memory, intellect, self, ego) in my dreams.

And when the eyes opens, the reality dawns as a new sunrise. From the sky, I am back to the planet earth, trying to give some meaning to my dream. Some one has said, "A foolish person see dream as reality whereas a wise person see reality as a dream". So its better not to find any meaning behind those dreams, but come again and again into the present moment. The mind will play many tricks to take your consciousness back to past and future, but with practice you learn to bring it again and again to the present moment.

Stay happy, stay blessed....Keep smiling

Nature does warn you

If you want to tell stories to your grand children, then start travelling --- Anonymous traveler

Generally, I prefer to write some experiences of my life which are worth remembering but today's trip with friends, although I would like to forget but penning it down as a memory of adventurous experience. 
When something comes out of desperation then the outcome would be favorable or not, that is not guaranteed. When nature gives you warnings then stop going against nature's decision else it may be harmful or of no use for you. You just need to decode the language of nature. 
That is what we missed in our one day trip to Ramgarh of Sholey movie. After a long-long discussions, our first trip was planned for Bhimeshwari but the place changed in a dramatic way because some forest activity came up in Bhimeshwari. 
Is this the sign of nature and we would have cancelled going to Ramgarh for this vague reason? ohh wait...there is more fun. 
On the day of trip, People are late because they lost keys. The road, full of unusual traffic was making nature's warning more clear. And finally the nature executed what it wanted to. Our car broke down on the way. To make the story short, we lost 5-6 hrs and spent the entire time in the Car which we would have been spending by doing some fun activities at the outing spot. 
So the learning is that the nature does give you many warnings. Now it's up to your capabilities to decode those signs and take a call.

Some Incredible Moments of Life

Some people take life as a burden, some take as opportunity. Situations are same, events are same but some enjoy others frown.
In essence, life is not a burden. There are ample moments in life that you can cherish. 

The company of righteous people makes the life more liveable and enjoyable

The moment when knowledge dawns in you, confidence reflects from your mere presence..That is the moment when you feel more liberated of your small mind

Either favorable time or hard time in life, but if you don't loose your awareness..That is the moment when you are totally in the present moment and enjoy the life at fullest 

When you are able to keep a full stop on the modulations of your mind, can maintain undying smile despite all the problems...That is the moment when you become inspiration for others to live the life

When you can accept yourself as well as others despite having lots of weaknesses and conflicts, when you can see beyond the person/object/situation...That is the moment you start living life hassle free

The moment when you get an attitude of being always ready for service, you start living a useful and purposeful life
Learn to show dynamism at outer layer but be very dispassionate at your inner core. Become like a lotus flower, which is born in mud, remains in mud but mud can never touch it. 

Be happy, keep serving with undying smile and become an instrument of love
