NOW.


In the present world, we are almost always either disturbed by our past memories and embarrassments or worried about our future.

And many people advise living in the present moment as a solution to the problem. We create another problem for ourselves by trying to solve the former. By trying to live in the present moment as we do overanalyze our actions and our behavior, and by trying to be in the Present or Now, we won't. Then we force ourselves to be aware always and as we try harder we get further away from it. At this point, we are filled with guilt, negative self-talk, and more unhappiness.

DISCLAIMER: I'm nowhere qualified to give anyone any sort of advice not even to myself. this is just my understanding of the subject and I just sharing my knowledge, understanding, and perspective. so, don't take it too seriously. 

But if I am to solve this problem, firstly I will ask myself what is 'Now'? and as far as my understanding goes there is absolutely nothing other than 'Now'. When we say "I live in the past or the future" or "I don't live in the present moment" what we mean is we are most of the time thinking (self-talk, associations of words and images) about the past or the future. But even when we are thinking about the past or the future we are thinking in Now, not even today but just 'Now' or 'Present'.

I feel to realize this you have to sit, 'just sit' after some time you would automatically become aware of your thoughts (self-talk). Thoughts from the past and about the future how those thoughts have links with each other, how they interact, which thought leads to which, how fast is the activity of thought etc. Just by being automatically aware of thoughts you are beyond the past and the future, you are in 'Now'. Some thoughts may trigger good/pleasant feelings and some may trigger bad, but this entire phenomenon is happening in 'Now'.

You can't live in any other dimension except Now. Even if you desire to live in the past or the future you can't. Your the being of vast, wonderful, and weird Now.



Does this realization solve our issues? MOST PROBABLY NOT. You might still have bad feelings, bad emotions, agitated moods, etc ( Actually they are not bad they are just feelings, emotions, and moods). But the subtle difference might be you are okay with any feeling, any thought, any mood. You're not happy because you are happy, you're not afraid because you are afraid, you're not pleasant because you are pleasant, and you're not sad because you are sad. 

'Now' is not the function of time. Now is eternal it's always there. We might have time chronologically and in clock for convenient purposes but the real Now is timeless.




(Disclaimer: These thoughts are based on my present understanding and THIS IS FROM A STANDPOINT. My understanding may change. don't take it too seriously)

Strong Nuclear Force - Force Of Nature.

What is a Strong Force?  Strong force is one of the four fundamental forces of the universe. Other forces are gravitational force, weak force, and electromagnetic force. Also, as the name suggests, it is the strongest of all four forces, 100 times stronger than electromagnetic force, million times stronger than weak nuclear force, and 100 trillion trillion trillion times stronger than gravity. The strong force acts at a very, very small distance only, it has a very short range. The strong force is responsible for keeping the nucleons (protons and neutrons) together inside the nucleus of an atom. Credit: Science facts The strong force is responsible for The strong force is responsible for holding proton-proton and proton-neutron together in the nucleus. The nucleus is a dense region of the atom around which the electrons form an electron cloud. Since protons are positively charged, they repel each other. But this repulsion is neutralized, and protons are held together with this stro...

Gyroplane, A fascinating plane that can become your Taxi.

The aviation industry is full of fascinating and interesting machines with unique designs, capabilities, and mechanisms. Among these Gyroplane or Autogyro holds a unique place as it bothers some features of fixed-wing planes and some features of helicopters and becomes a perfect blend for a low-speed aircraft with high fuel efficiency and better stability and control. using very interesting phenomena like auto rotation to spin its top rotor and produce lift. So in this blog, we will be discussing what is autogyro? how does an autogyro work? and the future of autogyro. What is AutoGyro or Gyroplane? A gyroplane or autogyro (from the Greek word meaning ('self turning'), is a heavier-than-air aircraft that uses a rotor usually to the rare of the fuselage called pusher configuration to produce thrust. Autogyro uses an engine to power its rare rotor, which creates the forward motion of the airplane by pushing the air backward. To produce lift it uses another rotor, which, unlike a h...

How Much Energy Does The Universe Have? - Zero Energy Universe.

We probably know the law of conservation of energy .  'Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.' So if we think about it for a while, a natural and obvious question arises, What is the total amount of energy available in the universe? There must be a constant value of energy in the universe since the energy can neither be created nor destroyed. So let's answer this question in this blog. What if I say that there is zero total amount of energy in the Universe? In other words, nothing is not nothing. Nothing can arrange itself in such a way that it becomes something. This hypothesis, that the total amount of energy in the universe is exactly zero and such a Universe is called a zero-energy universe . For eg : 0 can be written as 0 = -1 +1 = -1987632 + 1987632 = +89000000 - 89000000. but actually, 0 is divided into +10 power 69 and -10 power 69 joules of energy in the universe. Similarly, there is positive energy in the form of matter-energy and negative energy in the form...
