8.31 CGPA
Well, the results are out. I managed 8.33. Not a good performance considering that I am the 30th in the class. But never mind. That is what I expected and happy that I got it.
the mukkom experience
This time, It was the turn of myself and Manoj, for the same purpose. We reached there by abt 1 pm which meant that we had enough time to exercise our oratory skills. The journey to the school itself was astonishing. It was on top of a hill and to reach there one need to climb a 1 by 60 slope. So steep, that we wondered how the students were climbing this one, daily. Certainly a very good exercise and we mentally saluted the teachers and students of the school.
We reached there during their noon interval. Had no difficulty in meeting the HM. He was sitting in their IT lab, (It is shame to call it as a lab,) an ordinary room with four computers. The HM was very happy on hearing our request. All her teachers had gone for training and she was worrying in finding some one to engage the students. She consented with her full heart. It was abt 1.10 pm which meant we had to wait for abt another 45 minutes.
It was nice school, in the sense that you could enjoy nature it its very beauty. Only that, nothing else. The classes were not completely closed which meant you can attend the
10th std class and simultaneously listen to 9th std lectures. A lot of staring eyes made us feel that we had reached some other planet. Unlike at the Kunnamangalam School, no one introduced us to the students. We were heading straight away to the students. We both of us went to two separate classes. The very fuzz indicated that things were not going to be smooth for me here.
I soon realized the mood of the students. Abt half the class was keen on listening, and others were not. I tried my level best to be as friendly as I could. Of course I had the entire class listening, but their comments now and then, indicated that they were not serious. It was a bit demoralizing. But I tried my level best to be serious and focused.
Well, I went on the same way as I did in Kunnamangalam, only that the cold response might have affected my lecture. But I am sure at least a handful of them might have benefited from the talk.
Bored of typing, so winding up…

no 3: career guidance
As I had mentioned in my earlier post, we had an exciting session of interaction with the students of Kunnammangalam High school. We reached there a bit late …Straight away went to the HM’s room, got the permission in no time…(The brand NIT really works.) One of the teachers guided us to10 I. It was a small class…There were some 35+ student, and I could read a sense of excitement in all their eyes…When we started to talk, there was pin point silence, which was great relief to us.
We introduced ourselves and explained to them why we were there…The term ‘career’ itself was quite unfamiliar to them, let alone all other things. We had planned for a 10 minutes pep talk so as to motivate them. We really wanted their attention through out the class and for that matter it was essential to charge them up. With that end in aim I began my Kathi…mentioning abt KR Narayanan, A P J Abdul Kalam, Alphons Kannanthanam, explaining in very detail how these people, irrespective of their poor back ground, worked hard to climb up the ladder in the society. We also wanted to convey that whatever their past be, there is enough time left to make a remarkable change in their lives. To assert that fact, I mentioned how Mr.Kannanthanam went on to become one of the top rankers in the coveted civil service examination after scoring a mere 43% in the SSLC. We tried our best to highlight the hard work, will power and perseverance behind the success of each of these persons.
We realized that it is not enough to mention abt two or three great lives. It is sure to give them a push but that won’t be lasting. So I explained the story a person whom I know very well, who despite a not so good performance in SSLC, is earning something around a 30k. I explained how this fellow, with a taste of drawing, studied PHOTOSHOP and other related software’s and established himself in a promising career. Students were really excited when I mentioned that his clients are some of the top rated models and actresses in bollywood. That was more than enough to make them believe that u one need not get good grades so as to become successful in life. But we stopped our pep talk session by mentioning everything we knew about Sri P N C Menon, His early life and how he went on to become the richest malayali.
Well, it really worked, I suppose. We then went on to mention abt the higher secondary scenario, Abt HSE, VHSE, Diploma and degree courses. We did not want to do something and get out from there and we tried our level best to cover the minute details of each and every course. Students were really wonder struck when they heard that there are arts colleges in India from where on passing out you get a salary of Rs 50,000.Students were keen on courses like B.Com and Journalism. We explained to them abt the courses like Company Secretariship .CA and Cost & Work Accountancy, that one should take parallel to the B.Com course so as to have a flying career in corporate sector.
One of our aims was to break the misconception that only engineering and medicine are the promising career. I was really excited on mentioning abt the courses of Commerce stream, which I feel, that I would have chosen, had I known abt that sector in detail at the time of my career decision.
We tried our level best to highlight the importance of each course, and their career prospectus. Throughout the talk we tried to convey the importance of studying a subject that they really love and or they feel that they have a real taste in. Also we mentioned the importance of doing it from a reputed college…The students were really energetic and involved. They were elated partly because of the reason that they escaped from their routine classes, and may be partly because of the reason that they were hearing something of that type, probably for the first time in their life. We were trying to give them an aim for their studies, which we believe could be reflected in their SSLC grades too. When it was the time for interval, I had expected that all would be leaving so as to escape from our KATHI… But to my surprise and immense pleasure, they insisted on continuing the talk and that they didn’t want to go out…And that was a real energy booster for us, at least we got the group we targeted at, the group we believed, in whom, motivation and proper guidance could create wonders. We finally were forced to leave them when the long bell rang. Up on the bell not a single student stood up from his or her seat and we realized that they were interested in listening as long as we talk. But some how, we had to say good bye. And with filled hearts of having done something useful, we stepped out leaving behind some copies of various national magazines which contained their annual rankings and other details abt various colleges…

divine soaps
I could not resist commenting on the ongoing trend in commercial serials or the so called soaps. It was exactly a year before that “swami ayyappan” turned up in asianet. Lured by its commercial success, many serials in its line have turned up. Some well accepted and some failing to make the presence felt.
Media, particularly the private channels have grown unbelievably and have reached a stage where they exercise considerable power over the way people in the society think and behave. But sad to say, that people associated with the industry are least aware of the responsibility that rest on their shoulders, i.e. to guide the society, along with providing the necessary entertainment. And as a result such programs with mere commercial targets will certainly run the society into a state of chaos and anarchy. The recent school shoot out at Gurgaon is just a hint to such developments. I remember, once seeing a serial in which the heroine was trying to commit suicide. It was so minutely shown, that one child tried to imitate it at the house and lost her life in the process. Who should be blamed? I think, right from the director, everyone who sees the serial; thereby supporting it has to bear the responsibility. A similar scene was telecasted yesterday in a very popular serial, and I was afraid whether such mishaps repeat.
When considering such incidents, I think, it is a good development in making the serials with stories from Puranas. At least it will not be as bad as the usual “painkilies”. But I am shocked with the quality of the soaps that r telecasted now a days. Writers are interpreting the stories as they like so as to meet their commercial requirements. And as result “ayyappan” is acting like an ordinary soap hero. Only the sets have changed and their costumes. It is just like “the old wine in new bottle”.
Well, I remember being filled with extra ordinary bhakti, in my child hood days by seeing serials like “Jay Hanuman” and “Mahabharata”. But not only I feel pity for the viewers of today’s soaps, but also I am deeply alarmed, with its social implications. One may wonder what r their social impacts. It will certainly result in the degradation of religion and if religion dies the entire society dies as is evident from the situation in the western countries. I am afraid that Hinduism has become merely a religion of tales and stories; with the Hindu completely unaware of the rich philosophical message it carries so as to improve our life on earth. Perhaps the religion of Vedanta is the result of the work of millions of people through various centuries. But today the Hindu is behind mere idol worship. And that too has become a show off. And I don’t know where the religious leaders, who should be guiding the society, are? It seems that no body is worried abt the religion but abt the money it carries. I wonder whether there will be at least one in the entire Devaswom Boards, who could say at least the name of four Yogas!

no title
Now, hardly 4 more days left in my vacation. As expected none of the things mentioned in the earlier list has been accomplished. I completely forgot abt the list and the things mentioned there. Well, I am an expert in making a plan and not following it. Hardly can I remember a time where I have gone the other way.
Perhaps the only thing productive that has taken place is that I have completed the basic course of “ART OF LIVING”. I am not in a position to evaluate the course, but certainly I wish to express my experiences. Well, I learned some yoga steps, the so called ‘pranayama’ and the coveted “sudarshanacriya”. ‘Sudarshanakriya ‘ is perhaps one of the most different experience of my life, something comparable to the shayanapradhakshinam of guruvayoor. The experience of a person taking part in sudharshanakriya vaaries a lot. It depends upon your involvement, the way u breathe, your lungs power, and your mental state. Basically it is a breathing exercise in a particular order as dictated by Guruji (Shri Shri Ravisankar) himself. His voice is played from a recorded cassette. In the basic course the kriya will be done twice, in consecutive days. Well, in the first day I did not feel much. Perhaps I was a bit lazy during the time. But the second day I was determined not to be lethargic. And the result was quite amazing. I could feel the currents passing through my body. It was as if I was shocked. I felt as if my heart has stopped beating. My entire body appeared to be vibrating. The experience would last for abt half a minute. For that period I could not involve in the Kriya. After that I would again start to breathe as mentioned, only to have the same experience once again. And it repeated for abt 5 times. Certainly it is a process, where you give your heart a very good exercise.
I learned many things from the course. Now it all depends how I can apply it in my life.
I won’t say that the entire course is interesting. But there are times where you can relate yourself to what is being mentioned. And those occasions gives you a different insight.
I am a person who have made an enquiry abt the metaphysical terms like GOD, ATMAN
etc. I was also astonished by the power certain GODMEN like, _________, __________ etc exercise in captivating the hearts of millions. Well, the only place where I could get a clear cut understanding of this complex subject is the writings of Swami Vivekananda. I recommend this book (the book on Rajayoga) to one and all, irrespective of your religion. It helps you in understanding your religion more. Also it helps you in not falling to the hands of false religious ________. I don’t know what to call them, hence putting a blank.
Enough on the subject, I suppose. My next post will be on the value education project we did.

NO:2 "LOVE"
"If you don’t have a fascination for the opposite sex, then you ought to see a doctor immediately." I don’t know the father or mother of this sentence, but I completely agree with it. I think a sort of fascination start to take place as early as from 4th STD…It takes some shape and from 7th STD onwards. Of course these r my beliefs and may be dubious.
Well I studied in a boy’s school from 8th to 10th.And hence I don’t know much abt student psychology during these period…And it is hard to get attracted to someone who u see in the road side , however beautiful he or she may be…Perhaps those who went for tuition might have had good time…Well I don’t know….
Plus one and plus two are supposed to be years of hard work… And there is no much time to think abt love for the regulars…Certainly I was not a regular but still I did not get fascinated anywhere…
While repeating, I had decided that I would marry only a girl that I know very well…I am concerned abt the way the society goes…Also I was concerned with the way my hair goes. Had decided that I should find some one before I get complete KASHANDI…Well, nothing has gone in my way in that matter…
You need to be extremely lucky to be your lovers first love…Well that doesn’t matter much , Whether u r the no.1 or the no.2 or so. It matters whether u get a partner who can really adjust with u.
"The greatest reward of love is the experience of being loved…"I wished to have that experience, but I don’t think in the near future I will be able to…And also I don’t believe in experimenting…I should get it in the first shot… But the place I reached is not quite complementing…We do have girls at NITC…Most of them already committed, and to impress one among the u need to be extremely smart , let alone the case of a poor person who still feel shy to talk to girls…I only wish had I reached GEC or Amrita , for that matter.
Campus love is still a great mystery for me, simply I don’t understand its chemistry…For most of them it is a time pass…And I have lot other works to have that time pass (kittatha munthiri certainly pulikkum)…For some it is a spontaneous flow of emotion, of the quest to love and to be loved…There will certainly be some serious ones…but I wonder abt their fate…Only I could wish them, with a great amount of jealousy, ALL THE BEST.
Certainly love has its danger…In the initial stages everyone will be ready to adjust so as to impress the opponent…Well that’s the experience of love…But the scenario changes when the feeling of possession has rooted in the mind. Each will be expecting the other to adjust and there arises, I suppose, all the problems. It takes a good EQ to handle all those things…Remaining thoughts, later.

review of s3
Well It was not much productive…..Before the start of the semester I had one thing in my mind…either to score good marks or to learn something…Well, I don’t think that I have accomplished either…Much of my time was wasted on unproductive study and preparing for the labs…I was not specific in my studies...And that is sure to reflect in my GPA…
But never mind…I some how has come out of my laziness…I’ve certainly worked better than last semester…So I expect something around 8.15…Well this semester was easy to score. I only wish I had not bunked the classes in the last. Bunking has costed me dearly…I lost one surprise test which carries 5 marks…and almost lost another too…Will therefore think twice before bunking ….Hard earned lessons….
I wonder whether we (or at least I,) learn something at NITC…When my friends at Amrita speak , It seems that they are speaking in Hebrew…I couldn’t understand a single technical term that they speak out…Today I jus heard about system programming, DSP , PIC and all those stuff? I wonder what they are…May be. I will come to know it in
The next sem…Well can’t wait long…I can’t play stupid while talking to my friends…
Certainly I loved the maths 3 course which was primarily statistics…It Was a great learning experience…Something I was longing to study…
Also it was a great experience to be a part of tathva 07….Nice three days , had we not lost one among us…
Also it was the project that we did as a part of the value education course was another different experience…For the first I went out of the walls of NITC for an academic purpose…Thanks to Snellar and Sangeeth for their wonderful company…More abt it in another post…
Well, C mess was great in the beginning but had its decline in the last couple of months…
Thanx to all the crew there who fed me…
There were a couple of failures…first we thought of practicing yoga daily…We( I and Kishore) bought a mat each and had the initial classes under Vaidyan’s guidance...But stopped sooner…Of course yoga is not suited for NITC life…One can’t expect to get up at 6 in the morning when one sleeps at 1 or 2…Another hard earned lesson…
Then we started walking in the morning and soon wished to convert it to jogging…It continued smoothly for a week or so and had the same fate as for yoga…But we hope to revive it in the next semester….

But never mind…I some how has come out of my laziness…I’ve certainly worked better than last semester…So I expect something around 8.15…Well this semester was easy to score. I only wish I had not bunked the classes in the last. Bunking has costed me dearly…I lost one surprise test which carries 5 marks…and almost lost another too…Will therefore think twice before bunking ….Hard earned lessons….
I wonder whether we (or at least I,) learn something at NITC…When my friends at Amrita speak , It seems that they are speaking in Hebrew…I couldn’t understand a single technical term that they speak out…Today I jus heard about system programming, DSP , PIC and all those stuff? I wonder what they are…May be. I will come to know it in
The next sem…Well can’t wait long…I can’t play stupid while talking to my friends…
Certainly I loved the maths 3 course which was primarily statistics…It Was a great learning experience…Something I was longing to study…
Also it was a great experience to be a part of tathva 07….Nice three days , had we not lost one among us…
Also it was the project that we did as a part of the value education course was another different experience…For the first I went out of the walls of NITC for an academic purpose…Thanks to Snellar and Sangeeth for their wonderful company…More abt it in another post…
