Gynophobiac!!!

Have you ever felt out of breath in a situation ?? Your heartbeat is rising and you are almost sweating. But the most surprising thing is that the fear is entirely irrational. Well, then you could have a PHOBIA. *(this a probability).* Why I decide to talk about Gynophobia today because we live in a world of varied emotional experiences and their irregular physical expressions. And gynophobia is no less than this. It can severely impair one’s work, social life or even everyday activities. So how do we identify the monster?  The symptoms are easily noticeable; these people tend to avoid direct communication with women, deliberately keep away from social occasions where they could meet up with one or even get terribly anxious when they are physically close to one. Another mark of this is an intentional omission in the address to women.  *(like the previous lines)* So what next?  Are gynophobics misogynists?  Are they gymnophobic and genophobic too? Well, there is a lack of ev

Coprolalia

Welcome to an unknown psychiatric syndrome, which  cripples a lot of teenagers as soon as they move away from home.  If you still doubt my claims, I shall recommend you to peek into any ordinary college bitching about professors, courses or tests. The level of obscenity in all these are far beyond the actual intentions of the teenagers or so to say young adults (this sounds like an oxymoron). Often, my friends would say, their address to mother or sister is only  to trigger a sense of disgust in the listener because they are pretty immune to the other (non-obscene) ones.  Well, it could be the case, but we must look into this psychological behavior of this specific age group with some more caution. One of the first causes of these could be a severe restriction prevalent in the society when someone intends to talk about sex. This leads to two bad outcomes namely the first that the  teenagers get to know about stuff from highly unauthenticated and filthy atmosphere , which in turn ma

Religiously Yours

There is intricate relation between philosophy and religion. Something we have lost over time, probably because its tough for common people to comprehend and apply in lives. Here enters the main character : PREACHERS. What Preachers do is that  they interpret the religion for you, set out rituals and put in guidelines for everyday life. All this sounds non-harming and calm, but not always.  Because, some preachers do take hard stands. Why?? Because of personal experiences. That’s true with everyone.  Most of our logic, decisions and even prejudices are built on our experiences, something we can’t erase however hard we may try. What does that leave us with… A bias.  But in case of religious teachers, this bias is worrisome. Most people around the world are in search of hope, religion gives it to them. But also a bias of the preacher…. As these bias accumulates, the religion tends to become conservative and radical. This is what breeds the next level of terror;  people whom “religi

Not So Social …

First of All, We all have issues with social media.   But then why is it that we are so attracted towards the devil. I feel the answer lies in an ideological change what came up along with the technological reforms round this millennia. The "millennial" or as they love to be referred are those who grew up in the 2000's. Innovation was shaking the commonplace, and there was too much respect for thinkers, leaders and "people who did different things". This was put forward by innovative ideas like 'everyone is special'. That gives everyone a dream to achieve recognition for what they think they are good at. These people are known to break the conventional rules and bring in energy and output. But in the long run drain themselves out. But there is a subtle advantage of discipline and conventional thinking. Though the chances of getting super famous are slim, so are your chances of being a terrible investment. Its kind of the safe investments. Which th

Corruption Corruption Go away !!

Corruption as in itself carries a lot of philosophical matter, but the one we see in everyday life is quite simple to explain. Or is it ? I had a discussion with an elderly couple who were on their way to their children in Bangalore. As the discussion turned to they voiced their concern on corruption becoming a hindrance to nations growth and why we need to uproot it. And his idea was.... "Lets stop the inheritance of property across generations. " Seemed a wonderful idea at first. It solves a lot of issues on the go. It would work as an  heavy blow to the rich lads who aim to survive on their dads bank account . Bringing in accountability into the system. It would also kill the attempts to pool all money for a better life of the children. It would simply  kill the desire to pool money  (if it is not for you …) Then when things were such rosy, I thought then why not. The answer was subtle and linked much to the organisation of our society. If you look deep,  its

The Great Indian Caste Debate

To treat one human different from other just for his birth right is a crime. To force someone to do a job he does not will to o is a violation of human rights. But then it is important to note,  how we see freedom as an essential part of the human existence.  We are so attached to our privacy… So our society has become an open race, with stiff competition … Everyone dreaming to reach pinnacles of glory. We must appreciate if some people thought that,  freedom could be given up, to bring in organisation into society.  They felt freedom would lead to a lot of chaos… So t hey made a division of jobs and society, so that everyone does his own part and passes on the knowledge to next generation. However, it failed because : some jobs became coveted and others were looked down . This brought the Varna system, which was draconian and unfair. as  new jobs emerged ,  people wanted to break free  of these restrictions. competition showed a more progress than organisation once giv

Does the World need prayers??

As a remarkable gift of the human civilization, we have religions. But these divisions have nothing to do with whether god exists or why we need to pray……  Today when I stand up to Atheists, lets ponder upon why does the world as we know believe in prayers. Whether you pray or not is a multiplied probability of the three  1. Gods existence, him listening to you  2. The effort it would take you to pray  3. What you risk to lose!!!! I will now build up examples to show to you how the interplay of these probabilities shape our prayers. To start the belief in God. That in fact forms the very basis of prayers, but even those who do not believe in God will also have to admit that there are some happenings which our physics simply can’t decode (as in 2018). So we are left with two methods to approach this, we assume God exists and continue to do so……  t ill we are able to decode all of the universe design and unveil the future OR at least know there is no design at all .  The and

Life Decisions

This post is  my ideology  on “Suicide” , a grave issue in colleges these days , and people who are sensitive to the issue …..  its not for you, Rat-Race  : In this capitalist world, we believe  anyone can achieve success in life by sheer will and labor , most of us dream to attain big. And work day in day out to achieve it . In the long run, wear ourselves out,  set emotions to less priority  and then become quite insensitive to our environments. We risk relationships, family for career.  Is the outcome as rosy as we dream ?? ………….Not always But when even after all this we fail to achieve our goal, we decide to end all this. Atheism  : When somebody rejects the existence of God, he sees   himself as the sole creator and destroyer of his fortune .  It does give us some control over us, but when  something terrible happens or calamity strikes , we just give up …believing   its beyond our means as humans to endure such pain. When we are connected to God, we see him as savior in dark

The (Un)Coders Syndrome

(  this is an experience of a first-year after the first semester, no offence.. ); Several weeks ago, most of my friends went sick with a very contagious disease:- coding.  And very quickly its distinct symptoms grasped them; people started ‘night-outs’ to complete their tasks, disturbing happiness the moment their code worked and taking up more online courses than they could manage. I was somehow immune to all this, even though my roomie was among the pioneer victims. I successfully resisted all his attempts to transduce the deadly symptoms. But soon the picture changed…… this was no disease rather an adaptive evolution, a must for people here so that you could find some recognition after your B.Tech years,….I was shocked and scared; tried hopelessly to contract the disease but the symptoms would evade away in just hours. oh! I actually sat down to try to learn Java……..ha…ha..ha.
