Pearls of wisdom from Sherlock holmes

Sherlock Holmes is one of the most popular fictional character, I have recently bought the two book set of  "Sherlock Holmes- The Complete Novels and Stories" , It has been a fascinating read since then. Here I present some of the lesson which this eccentric genius has for us common folk on the basis of my reading, suggestions and edits are welcome!

1."Emotional qualities are antagonist to the clear reasoning"

2."Desultory readers are seldom remarkable for the exactness of their learning"

3."Now the skillful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic"

4."If you have all the details of a thousand at your finger ends, it is odd if you cannot unravel the thousand and first."sherlock /  Machine learning huh??

5."You see I have a lot of special knowledge which I apply to the problem"sherlock

6. "Data! data! data!" he cried impatiently. "I cannot make bricks without clay."sherlock

7."Do you know Watson" said he, 'that is one of the curses of a mind with a turn like mine that I must look at everything with reference to my own special subject. You look at these scattered houses, and you are impressed by their beauty. I look at them, and the only thought which comes to me is a feeling of their isolation and of the impunity with which crime may be committed there."

8."I have frequently gained my first real insight into the character of parents by studying their children."Sherlock

9."What one man can invent another can discover" Sherlock

10."He looked upon aimless bodily exertion as a waste of energy, and he seldom bestirred himself save where there was some professional object to be served." Watson

Question or Answer!

Question Or Answer!


When they have answers, 
I have questions. 
When they have more answer.
I have even more question.
And when they end up with answers,
I still have questions,
Unanswered, Untold and mystical, 
they say so.
For me just the question they are,
In queue to be answered,
For even more questions.
Answer or Question do they ask,
Question is my preferred task....

Brilliant Anatomies In Nature I -Wasps General

                    Brilliant Anatomies In Nature







These are not only the one whose behavior and anatomy amazes me, I have named this article so as to present a paradigm. I can see so many of them in my courtyard and nooks and crannies of my house.....this is what prompted me to write...

These little pale yellow brisk creatures spend most of their lifetime nurturing young ones and shifting places. there are well over 100,000 species of wasps.
They have usually only one fertile queen which during winter rests in deep hibernation. Other are worker wasps and are mostly female.
For me, they are extremely wonderful creatures, less I know, but I love their flight, their light wings perfectly lift their bodies linear to horizontal and their morphology give them an ability to rotate about the axis in all directions.
Besides Wasp from nadir to zenith you see a wide range of anatomies in nature, seems like designed with mathematical precision. From subatomic particles to atom to cell to humans to planets to stars to galaxies to universe itself you see the same symmetry.
This is flabbergasting and leaves us dumbfounded. The beauty it contain is immeasurable. All our science and mathematical advancement are nothing but a glimpse.
I am mesmerized to wasps, birds, plants, skies and everything here and there, then I wonder now since I am a part of this surreal magnificence then for sure I am wonderful too, So yes I am.

A Connection so Old

A Connection so Old


A connection so old,
she bode,
through big fishy eyes.
So sublime as to lean into her soul,
is the only desire one can have.
Loving her would be in no way enough,
For she is to be adored.
A connection so old,
she bode, 
through big fishy eyes.
I won't say, she is always beautiful to eyes,
For eyes get weary in the course of time.
And someone told me beauty is in beholder's eye,
Wouldn't that be an insult to her,
for then she would be a subjective one.
A connection so old,
she bode, 
through big fishy eyes.
Her sheen splendor puzzles me up,
Can she have a sip in cup,
With someone so skeptic goon,
Having nothing to come very soon.
It is the heart which follow for getting a suave in hollow. 
A connection so old,
Of which the rein she holds
A smile which sprouts in the spirit, 
Shows itself on her fancy cheeks.
A connection so old,
she bode, 
through big fishy eyes.

Secrets of learning- traits of geniuses-I



Have you ever wondered, how some people manage to have an extraordinary ability to learn almost anything they so want to?




If yes then here is your answer, I am going to unravel the secrets of geniuses.
Before proceeding you need to know what learning actually is- Learning is adding new talent to the creative faculty of a being. One of the most significant feature of learning is- Once learnt you will develop a new insight about the world around you which will be brand new in all of your sentient memory, And if you are unable to do so then frankly it was not learning.
This is rather a simple concept- if we take an example of a musician, since he has spent a lot of time with music, he would be able to see music everywhere...in the chirping of sparrows or in the rustling of leaves or in the humming of bees and even in the horns of vehicles. And if we take example of a young physicist who has just learnt about motion of bodies then by the use of his imagination he can extrapolate the concept in the general world like he will calculate the momentum of a wasp which bumped of to his car window and will speculate about the conservation of momentum( some might call it crazy or rather  a geek)
Similarly to a poet the world is a different place and for a scientist it's is even more subtle.  SECRETS OF LEARNING are-
1. Develop love-Learning is only possible when you love what you are learning or yearning to learn.
            you will automatically develop love to it when you will be knowing how your creative faculties are going to be enhanced by it. Remember this Love is unconditional, try to learn by all your heart. Dot't put short term goals in front of your eyes like i wanna score high in the upcoming test on Monday and i need to finish the chapter instead try to learn through practice and have a provident view on the situation and most importantly learn to feel not to jot down in some exam!

            Try not to be a man of success but rather try to become a man of value- Albert Einstein

2. Get Inspired-While learning it is likely to fall into despondence easily, you will need inspiration, you can draw your  inspiration from anything which makes you happy, it can be reading biographies, doing what please you most like when I feel despondence I start creating something it can be a poem, an article or a new innovation ( of which most of the time remains in my mind only), these things help me to get recharged again,

           It's not who gonna let me but it's who gonna stop me.

Other factors of learning include time, insight, curiosity, practice and most important is Practice!
these are the factor which may seem like things usually geniuses owe but believe me you too have potential to learn almost anything.
Problem with our creativity is that we do not believe in the power of our insight and ideas that come to us whereas geniuses do.
Stay tuned for part-II to delve deeper into the secrets of learning, and scour into the above points in much more detail with exemplary thoughts.
You would for sure change the way you learn and widen your creative faculty.
Transcend from an ordeal to a playful method of learning

A Dream Fought-A happier world!











Lost in my profound thoughts,
I dreamt many a lots.
No, it was not a Utopian thought,
Nor it was a nightmare fought.
Nevertheless, it was about the world we live,
The life we lead.
It was not that a win-win world,
Nor it was a perfect curd.
But yes, it was a happier world.
It was not that it took years to build,
It was just an instantaneous yield.
The change was just a common talk,
People of that world had just discerned some thoughts.
They got to be happy in all,
In Ups-down and vicissitudes of life.
The motto was only to be happy for all,
Outcomes were of eutaxy indeed.
Love was in the air,

And they were happier than ever.

Little things............

Little things sometimes in a jiffy revives the most elegant moment in life which fills us with all joy,
 this joy is incomparable in the sense that it is having your life embedded in them. 
You don't remember the whole novel of life but some words or paragraphs which touched the being in you
 So relish the every present moment because this is truly what living is, otherwise Some were there, Some are here and Some will be there. Live the moment you live in, seems silly, what is this guy yapping, don't believe me, try it out for a moment close your eyes and feel everything around you except yourself, for example, whizzing air, the texture of surface, your breath, birds chirping, even horns of vehicles, observe everything except yourself, feel everything except yourself...................Now open your eyes, tell me how you felt, lived the moment?......
Who says you can't be happy all the time..........defy everyone who say so Be Happy if not happy Remain balanced all the time.......that will attract situations perfect for you


Whatever happens 
 Wherever you go,
          Whatever you do,
                          Remember this...
          No one can take the fire,
                           Out of your soul,
               the stars
          From your eyes,
               the passion
         in your  heart
Those are yours and will remain yours as long as you
            dwell here.
                                           - S.L
