First Step

We want people to read our blogs and we expect them not to read our personal diary. I hope the difference between a blog and a diary is now understood. So, it's a blog and not a personal diary.
As I have mentioned in the blog description about what my blog is all about, I won't go into that again.

After thinking for about 5min…

I can’t refrain myself going into that again. In fact, I want to elaborate on the meaning of ‘a scientist hidden in practically every living being’. And that’s what it is all about. So, here’s the deal.

Every living system is heuristic in itself. Nature has made us like that. We do things, learn from them, do them again, and learn from them again and the process continues. And not just we, every living thing does that. This is how the process of evolution can be explained in a superficial way (1). (I can’t believe these are my words).


Himesh Reshammiya wants to have a good voice quality. So, he does a daily riyaz. My neighbor, Mr. Rane, invests in the stock market and is at a good position in a multinational software firm and in addition to that, he is looking forward to open a small business as a joint venture. On the other hand, ‘Joshi kaka’, a Pujari at the temple I visit often, is not interested in money at all; he’s more interested in following spiritual practices instead. I want to improve my handwriting. So, I practice it regularly on MS WORD (2).


As a student of mathematics, I would say, from (1) & (2),

Every individual wants to ‘evolve’ in his field of interest one way or another. Be that the field of music in case of Himesh, or the field of finance in case of Mr. Rane, or the field of spirituality in case of Joshi
kaka. And to achieve that, he carries out some experiments in his day-to-day life, notes the results, and acts according to them. Results may give him either a positive feedback or a negative one. If he can learn from them, he realizes that no feedback is negative. So, my point is that…

As this is ‘my’ blog and not Mr. Rane’s , I shall call it ‘living with my experiments’. I will be writing about how I saw the things, tried to experiment on them, the results I got, and conclusions I drew out of them.

One more thing I want to mention here is that I personally think you should always know the exact end of the thing you have started or are willing to start, so that, the path can be visualized. But, at this point of time, I don’t even have a vague idea of where this ‘blogging’ thing should come to an end. This is what I’m afraid of the most, about ‘no perception or even illusion of the end ’. I am looking forward to figure it out soon, because it’s actually the end that makes the path (look) beautiful.


And, as I know how it has got you so much pain to reach to this line, I would like to finish with my first experiment on ‘making people feel slam you, and at the same time, feel helpless due to virtual world constraints’ . I hope that the results come out to be annoyingly satisfactory. See you around..!!
