Some of the people close to me complain that i have a huge circle of friends and that I should reduce my social interaction if I need to complete my Ph.D. The last few years have been an almost an impossible arduous climb.Too many disappointments.Too many disasters.Too much for others to understand.All through, the one aspect which has kept me sane,filled me with hope and restored some order in my life it has been friends.They had been my family.This has only made me more empathetic towards the needs of others.This has only made me more human.However,I have been trying to focus on more concrete and important issues in Life:Like being there for helpless children.
All said and done this new year I told myself that I would insulate myself from most of the people.To some extent I did,except for a few exceptions.
I have been a part of a group in Lexington for a very long time.This group means a lot to me.Somehow all the members of the group ended up not being with me on the New Years eve!Hmm!
On the new year day i ended up going to the temple and chanting V.S.This was completely unplanned and gave me a lot of happiness and peace.Somehow I am still not able to convince my physics atheist friends about the existence of God.But this does not deter me from having faith.My resolve gets only stronger!
In the presence of faith,hope is born
In the presence of hope,love becomes a possibility
In the presence of love,anything is possible!
As the days pass by my faith in Hinduism becomes stronger and stronger.This is fuelled by my belief in Karma and it being the reason for the suffering that I see in mankind.Though i am strong follower of hinduism,I am very secular and appreciate the fact that Hindusim accomodates almost every religion that I know of!
