On the way of Intellectualism

This days am thinking about the "Intellectuals" as am about to study the subject of political theory which talks about the intellectuals in its initial phase of curriculum. The ideas or thinking which am going to share are not the part of my curriculum about the same subject.

University is a place where one develops its own sense for thinking from varieties of aspects and other activities, but this may also varies from person to person as no has got the same sense as there are other many of the external factors which affects apart from their common structure of building knowledge, Now let me talk about the word "Intellectual" which in my sense i would mean as a person who is thinking about any of the topic or issues for instance by being under certain parameters, it also takes care of the pros and cons which may affect to the part of decision making for any particular topic in future too. Being intellectual is in itself a kind of mirror image of what we called as "Critical Thinking". Am studying at the centre for social management which talks about the managerial concepts too. so for any intellectuals it is must that he or she is taking care of the tools which define the management system. While being in 6th semester of the course i am happy that am able to at least think on any of the issues or topic and put it in front of you. So my idea of intellectual has been came up because of my regular communication with many of the people daily and through this a kind of knowledge is always been developed and i think that a knowledge is very much important for a critical thinker and also an intellectuals.

So this was some of the words which am sharing with you, so that i can develop a small knowledgeable relation with you all.

Bloody Norms.... are taking away my Freedom

Thinking mind is always critical for some issues or topic and now it’s back to work again when I came in front of a situation. All the people have different ways for greeting each other and that is something usual, but I didn’t know that this would become a carrier for me to come up with some of my ideas on the so called “NORMS”. Before few days I just greeted a friend of mine by just giving a light hit on the head and a blink of eyes, and this was something normal to me as that was friendly and it’s not like that my friend didn’t liked that but the thing was the other people who was standing along with my friend asked that “is this the way that a “Gujju” boy greet the people?” I did not know about this question as came to know about this later on when my friend told me. My friend didn’t take this thing seriously but just shared this comment with me, so this made me to think that why do people justify the things by the societal norms?

I agree that there must be certain norms for the society to work things well but sometimes I do feel that these norms are taking away my Fundamental Rights… J There are some things like good and bad, but this can be different for the people in different situation. Something’s which is good for me is not necessary that it would be good for all and vice versa. But there is a possibility that people’s reaction on any situation can be changed depending upon the mindset or broad/narrow understandings. The people who thought that the way of my greeting was not good that might be because they might not be knowing about the friendship between me and my friend or they might be more serious people J I also agree that the way I greeted was not normal as its against the societal norms of greeting people, but I don’t think that I must be so formal that I would greet like an official greetings. So personally I think that these norms are sometimes too much sensitive that it doesn’t allow people to come out of it. There can be a possibility that people would not be following these norms but they would perform a normal role in every aspect. I would like to stay a bit away from this Norms when am with my friends. J  

Just think about it....

"Thinking an Artificial Process"

You will be little shocked while seeing the quote which you will not be able to believe because we believe that human is a form of nature and so it’s thinking/thinking process is an natural process but I do not feel like that, the reason for it with me is that the word Artificial means man-made so I do believe that the thoughts which an human being acquire after thinking about on something specific and purposefully to get something out of it and that thoughts are artificial because he had previously made his mind to think on that and the thought that comes into mind without any purpose and by just getting on to something is Natural thinking because he had not made his mind to think on that particular thing/situation or whatever it may be. If a man starts to think on something it is an process which is been started by the man to get some result out of that thinking in term’s of thought so this thought is because of one’s thinking process.

Now I would like to share my view’s on the different ways of thinking. Everyone have different mind-set so the area in which they are able to think is dependent on their mind-set while thinking inside that particular area, they have different way of thinking in the same area. Everytime they think on the same thing they get out the different things. If anyone is not able to think in different ways then that one cannot be efficient to get success or cannot join the path that can lead him to the title of “THINKER” . If one starts to think in different ways he become eligible to think out of that area in which he was thinking previously.

Thinking should not only be in terms of different ways but it should be also in positive way and should also be sharp. When one is thinking on something then his surrounding’s will also effect on his/her thinking, that is the reason that mostly people like to think in peaceful places. And a person strts to think shrply only when he/she remains updated through newspaper/Television/Discussion etc… are the real source to make oneself to think.
