Are Humans Designed To Eat Meat ?

Posted on May 19, 2012 by Rajesh Rana

I simply enjoy eating Chicken Curry, Rogan Josh (Mutton), Fish Curry, Sea Food. 5 Years back I turned into Vegetarian for nearly a year but when I went back home for Puja holidays my Mom got furious to know that I turned into Vegetarian she said “Son this is not the time for you to turn into vegetarian, when you get old then you can opt for it but not now” Then I again started enjoying meat and I still love them.

Today I came across a very interesting and important video about the facts of Meat and Human, it is about “Are Human Beings Designed to Eat Meat?”. Although I knew that we Humans are made for eating apples and banana by our mother nature as we do not have any canine teeth and we take 72 hours to digest meat meal but apart from missing canine and super slow digestion of meat I didn’t knew any of the other facts.

Power of Thank You

Posted on April 24, 2012 by Rajesh Rana

My Toastmaster Speech – Project 2

“Whoever Has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.”

I know it sounds pretty unfair that whoever already has will be given more and who don’t will be taken from him, it’s like “Rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer” and this passage is from an ancient holy scripture. But there is a catch, a riddle to be solved , and when you know it a new world will opened up for you. And the catch or riddle is one single word “Gratitude”. Continue reading →

Time Is Ticking

Posted on March 30, 2012 by Rajesh Rana

Just thinking; Everyday we live our life like in an illusion that we have unlimited time. We never care how precious our time is and never realize that every second our clock is ticking, our time is exhausting. Daily we lead our life in grudges, jealousy, hatred, depression, solitary and loneliness. We value what other think about us over what we  believe in our self or matter of fact is that we never keep any faith in self and give so much importance to guy next to you that sometimes single utterance from his mouth may disturb you for the whole day. Why can’t we start valuing our life, our time (what is left) and truly start living? Is it so hard to do that?

I watched a movie lately – “In Time“; It is about in future time has become the ultimate currency. where people stop aging at 25, but there’s a catch: you’re genetically-engineered to live only one more year, unless you can buy your way out of it. The rich “earn” decades at a time (remaining at age 25), becoming essentially immortal, while the rest beg, borrow or steal enough hours to make it through the day. Protagonist of the movie fights against this injustice of imbalance like always, as rightly said by the Architect in “Matrix reloaded“ that Human being simply can not accept perfect world and we can never have perfect world.

The whole story line was pretty innovative I never thought that way before, but what liked  most was everyone’s clock was ticking and everyone were aware that how much time is left, now they can either work extra to earn more time or steal it or you can live your life like last day on earth. Imagine that somehow you can come to know that you have got certain amount of time is left; then what you would do?

Whenever I reunion with my old friends like in their marriages (One fact here : Almost all People I know are either getting married or pregnant, I’m simply getting more Awesome) I ask them one simple question; what you would do if you come to know that 2012 is really the last year of Planet Earth? and to my surprise everyone of them simply just can not give more than 3-5 wishes to do before earth gonna end. May be we have taken our life so much granted that we firmly believe it’ll never going to end.

But Who knows…Cause the fact is our “Time is Ticking……” We better start living our life.. instead of wasting it.

Learning Life’s Lessons

Posted on November 30, 2011 by Rajesh Rana

I’m learning very important life’s lesson from past few months, Today I thought of sharing it with all my friends (Special thanks to Ishita Gupta)

  • Time is an illusion.
  • Don’t measure it by the amount of hours/effort you put in, measure it by goals you accomplish.
  • A lofty goal combined with serious effort gets results.
  • Doing things quickly and repetitively helps you get over anxiety about failure.
  • Making a decision is more important than doing things perfectly.
  • When in the dip (the tedious execution phase), remember the larger goal of your project and the value it provides to the world.
  • You don’t have to do everything alone.
  • Good things await when you take a risk (a smart one), no matter how afraid you are.
  • If you win, you win. If you lose, you win. (From Rocky and stepping out of your comfort zone.)
  • When you think you’ve reached your limit, do more.
  • You just might waste your life away in idleness and bullshit if you’re not careful.
  • Taking initiative matters.
  • Being who you want to be and who you think you really are is largely a decision
  • Flexibility is your biggest asset.
  • You don’t have to do things like everyone else.
  • Focus on what matters. Few things matter, but those that do need maniacal focus.
  • Getting rejected is OK. In fact, if you do it quick enough, rejection speeds up your road to success. (Similarly, rejection doesn’t matter until you stop trying. Once you stop trying, getting rejected becomes a big deal.)
  • Taking care of the things (and people) you love in your life matters everyday, no matter how busy you are.
  • Learn the language of the people you wish to speak to and communicate with (French or analytics.)
  • Don’t stay busy. Get real things done that matter (ignore what looks like your job and focus on what really is your job.)

My Maiden Bungee Jumping From 160 M – World’s 3rd Highest Point at Nepal

Posted on October 19, 2011 by Rajesh Rana

Date : 11th Oct 2011
Location : The Last Resort, Nepal (3 Hours From Kathmandu).
Booking Office : The Last Resort, Thamel, Kathmandu
Website: http://www.thelastresort.com.np

First Bungee Experience
When I went to Bridge for the jump I felt little fear just like when I look down from the roof of the building, There were around 40 people which were divided into 3 groups according to their weight G1 (70 Kg-100KG), G2 (63 Kg – 69 KG), G3 (40 Kg – 62 KG); I was in G1 which was marked with marker on my right hand. After sometime my temperature went up by 5 degree I don’t know why but I was feeling like going for my first campus interview. when I watched 4-5 jumps and swings I started to cool down and got acclimatize with height.

Jump started with heaviest to lightest weight order, my turn was 3rd last and my elder bro has last turn with 70 KG. When it was my turn I tried to stay focused and composed, I made a small plan on how I will jump like I’ll keep my hands in flying position and rest body straight, won’t bend, I’ll give a push by legs while jump which will help me to give a better Free Fall experience just like as instructor said an hour ago but when I get there on jump platform my mind went blank, has almost zero thought and no fear, all I heard was 1..2…3.. Jump.. and I jumped… very next moment my mind went completely blank like in a state of enlightenment absolutely No thoughts..those feelings were indescribable which you can experience only when you go through it, it’s like I fully lived those moments and felt those every second of free fall.. Once the rope bounced back I came back to my normal state and started shouting woooooohoooooo……

Why I Hate My Blackberry?

Posted on September 18, 2011 by Rajesh Rana

Recently I got Blackberry as a gift, but after using I started hating it, My friends asked me why so? Here I’m listing my primary hate reasons -

  1. Connection – Frequently looses connection I have Airtel connection but it switches it’s network to Vodafone and shows no network, after running 5-6 diagnostic test it switch back to Airtel network. I thought something is wrong with my phone set but same is the story with our other BB phone.
  2. SMS – Ever since I started using it i.e. yesterday it frequently route my SMS to international gateway which costs me Rs.5/SMS for local SMS even after having unlimited Monthly SMS package I complained about this to Airtel customer care but they are too dumb to acknowledge it as problem.
  3. Ringtone – It frequently switch to silent mode with no ringtones and alert tone I missed many important calls and even after wasting 1 hour to fix it won’t fix up but after sometime it get fix it by itself.
  4. Cumbersome – There are too many settings and options for dumb guy like me to get a hold of it, it took me more than 3 days to understand & customize the basic functionalities to use my phone normally. Unlike Android and iPhone which took me 10 minutes to understand and ready to rock & roll.
  5. BIS (Blackberry Internet Service) – It’s doubling my mobile bills and without it I can’t even surf net with Airtel Live as I used to do it before in my Samsung Phone as my Mobile internet requirement is not that great that I’m going to double my mobile bill.
  6. Just Can’t Switch it off – There is no button for switching it off completely, they have Full Power off but When I hit hang/power button it instantly illuminates the phone. I was travelling & wanted to save the batteries by switching it off when I checked back to call I found whole batteries was drained off as somehow it started off automatically cause it just take a simple touch on hang/power button to start unlike other phone which takes continuous pressing of power button to start. I wasted 2 hours to figure out how to switch off completely later found it can only done by taking off the batteries.
  7. No Apps – I cannot access apps like gmail apps or other essential life saving apps till I subscribe to BIS, I can surf net via Wi-fi but I just cannot use apps what the hack is wrong with them.
  8. There are other issues as well and these are very simple issues but making my life hell after started using blackberry as it is consuming too much time in regularly fixing things like network and ringtone issues also reducing my productivity greatly. Now I wish I have never got this phone.  Somehow my 1st impression not so good with BB :( I hope it may change with time.

Sharon Gayter – My New Running Inspiration :)

Posted on August 18, 2011 by Rajesh Rana

This 15th August (Independence day) morning when I was listening/watching patriotic songs in youtube in my friend’s home (as his TV was short circuited recently) I picked up the Telegraph newspaper and read about Sharon Gayter, my jaws dropped when I read that she won 222km ultra-marathon at altitude exceeding 14,000ft, where oxygen is low and that too when she is an asthmatic and 47 years old whose regular inhaler wouldn’t work at those height heights because of the pressure difference and not only she won but competing against the world’s best, she made it home in 37 hours and 34 minutes that is like running non-stop 5.8 Km per hour.

Last time when I got inspired was by Runner Keith Golke of Minneapolis who resembled as an icicle while jogging on the coldest day, he was fully covered with ice still it didn’t stopped him from going for his daily jog.

Two Wolves

Posted on August 1, 2011 by Rajesh Rana

I just came across one of the best explanation of life while going through Facebook notes of my friend I’m not sure of it’s original source but it is really amazing -

Life explained, in short!!

Two Wolves – Good & Evil

One evening an old Man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, “My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all.

“One is Evil – It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

“The other is Good – It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, ”Which wolf wins?”
The old Man simply replied, ”The one you feed.”
