Mother India by her Unsung Heroes (1)

 

Chapter 1. My India, My Pride


The journey endeavoured by our beloved golden sparrow is an adventure that will give you chills down your spine. A road with a million knocks and crooks has helped shape India into what it is today. An adventure, a story, a journey embarking on to sculpt mother India and impact the lives of millions of its citizens. This ride is like nothing you have ever experienced before, a roller coaster down the steepest cliff, showcasing countless acts of valour, bravery, heroism, festivities, elections and their massive campaigns, multiple riots, rallies,  and a lot more.

 

India, a land ranging from the snowy Himalayas in the north to the calm backwaters in the south, the mighty Sahyadri in the west to the lush green forests of the east, is not just a country but a manifestation of its varied cultures, castes and creeds. A nation where more than nineteen thousand languages coexist in peace and harmony. A place where tradition meets modernization, culture meets contemporary, religion meets reality. The land of gods, whose divine vision enlightens our homes and hearts. A land of mathematicians, scientists whose hard work and dedication have helped India advance on the scientific front. The land of arts and crafts that never fails to amuse and entertain its citizens. The land of brave hearts who without any hesitation lay down their lives so that their beloved mother India can live in peace. A land of law and order, who follows and preaches the rules of non-violence, friendship and peace. The land of festivities and colours that blend together perfectly to spread joy, brotherhood and unity. A land where people never seem to give up. A land with more than 1,00,000 years of rich-rich history. A site we all lovingly and proudly call home!

 

India was not always the country you see it as today. There were many hardships, many wars, many rebellions before India could be called as one and its people a sovereign, socialist, secular and democratic republic. Let us step forth and embark on a journey to see the building of Mother India, block-by-block by her heroes, some famously known and worshiped; and some who are hidden in the pages of history, waiting to be uncovered.

The Magic of Theme Parks

Theme parks have always been more than just a fun escape for me, they're a complete sensory experience. From the tingle of anticipation before a roller coaster launch to the rush of wind on my face, even the long queues become part of the adventure. As a thrill-seeker, amusement parks have long been my favorite destinations for excitement and joy. This summer, I had an outstanding time visiting Universal’s Islands of Adventure, the newly opened Epic Universe, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Florida. It was the highlight of my summer, and I came away with no regrets. As a game developer, I appreciate the distinction between amusement parks and theme parks, and I deeply connect with the creativity and immersive design behind these attractions. They reflect the very vision I strive to bring into my own work. If you want the adventure and electrifying sensation of rides, amusement parks are your thing, but, if you want to be transported into a different universe, you want to feel magica...

Return of the Jungle

  Animation, a filmmaking technique in which still images are manipulated to create moving images, is more than just this. It is a form of expression and a way to communicate emotions and stories. It is beyond this; it is an artistic marvel. I am awed by the many ways artists create such wonderful creations. Animation is still perceived as cartoonish and to be viewed by children; however, there is more depth to these movies. They are to be viewed, enjoyed and loved by people of all ages. It is not just about the cartoony way the character moves on screen; it is about capturing its expressions and the way it communicates its emotions, despite being a lifeless 3D model. It is to embrace the life instilled into the character by the hardworking artists who spend countless days and nights bringing their creations to the screen to be cherished. Animated movies, like all others, hold a lot of meaning and hidden values. I have always loved and admired animated movies, and I am moved by the...

Who moved my Cheese?

C hange, the only constant in our equation of life. An inevitable force that will occur in our lives sooner or later and the faster we accept this truth the easier it becomes to get along with it. Nevertheless, it is not the change that changes our lives, i t is the way in which we cope with it that does. Tackling the consequences and shortcomings of that change with an open mind and embracing it with a smile is what earns us a new medal towards our goal of achieving a happy and fruitful life.  We are surrounded with an enormous amount of knowledge on how we should live our lives, what should we do to stay happy, how should we face challenges and deal with their outcomes, etc, and yet we still seem to curl ourselves up in our memories and in the process, we forget to make amendments in our present so that our future self will have something new, something adventurous to synonymise ourselves with. We have to let go of our past and move on, that is the only way forward. Books are one...
