If you could talk to a historical figure, What would you say?

 

Historical figures if I start counting there are many. In a country like India where there were so many invaders, kings, Mughals, British, national leaders and so on...Counting never ends. If I get a chance to meet any one historical figure then I would like to meet Mahatma Gandhi.

Following two dubious years in India, where he couldn't begin an effective regulation practice, he moved to South Africa in 1893 to address an Indian shipper in a claim. He proceeded to live in South Africa for a considerable length of time. It was here that Gandhi raised a family and first utilized peaceful opposition in a mission for social equality. In 1915, matured 45, he got back to India and before long set about sorting out workers, ranchers, and metropolitan workers to challenge unnecessary land expense and separation.

Mahatma Gandhi, the father of our nation has done a lot for humanity whether he was in Africa or India. He helped the blacks to attain respect in that white-dominated country. When he returned to his country, he was startled to see their miserable condition. His sacrifices are abundant.
                                              Gandhi ji marching towards the sea.

I want to question that his determination was at its peak during the Dandi March or in attaining independence then why he left his countrymen alone taking too much time to make a decision.  His prolonged time taken in knowing the good of the people of Kashmir led Kashmir into chaos forever.

                                        Gandhi ji in conversation with Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru

I want to know didn't you feel that those people also needed sympathy or equality. Then why diplomatic relations or decisions were taken that ruthlessly led people to kill other people or brutally rape women.

Though I know it is not the fault of any it's just that power was transferred to Indians from the British but they didn't understand how to hold it and keep all the countrymen together and safe from all outer invasions.

I really respect the dedication and sacrifices of millions of Indians but we need to ponder on the mistakes that accidentally happened during that era that led to bloviating two nations. So whether I get a chance to talk to them then I would only like to reverse the wrong decisions taken and prevent the deadly chaos that happened.

It's my honour to meet this personality in person. To know about the hardships, striking endless efforts to help the needy and do some good for humanity and Indians. His consistent work and blessings are never to be forgotten. Salute to him!

    You have captured the essence of time travel so well. What would we do if we knew the outcome of a decision. Would we do anything differently?

      Thanks a lot! Many questions go unanswered and the common man has to suffer its outcomes.

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...

 The Psychology of Marketing: How Marketers Trick Us Into Buying More by Harinder Singh Pelia | Book Review Marketing is such an in-depth concept that it always transitions according to consumer preferences. The extent to which marketers go to sell their products will blow our minds away, as money comes first rather than people's needs. Even the bare detail that hints at our desires is manoeuvred to boost sales figures, often overshadowing the genuine connection between a brand and its audience. This relentless pursuit of profit can lead to practices that prioritise persuasive tactics over transparency, leaving consumers feeling manipulated rather than empowered. sales. How to make money might be in our control, but how money goes out of our pocket might not be, as psychology is in cohesion with marketing.
