The Matchstick

PART- II Zol has known Ekim since he was a child and has seen him grow into an adult before his eyes. Ekim has a curiosity within him that Zol found both intriguing and repelling at the same time. Once Ekim has asked him, "How do you make Rains, Zol?" Zol has no definite answer to this question. It was a question that hit the existence of a Rainmaker and shook it to the core. Afterall, it was the purpose of Rainmaker's life to know how to make Rains. Zol answered, "Well that's the most difficult question for a Rainmaker to answer, but I can tell you that Fire and Water both are closely related and follow the eternal cycles of nature. You have to study both elements carefully. When heat of Sun and Water of the lands engage with each other, they form clouds. Clouds bring the sign of Rains." Ekim didn't get the point of Zol's explanation at the moment, but at a later stage he has to contemplate his master's words when he was himself the Zol. Zol sai...

PART-I It was a critical phase in the rise of human consciousness when ancient men learned to exploit the secrets of nature. They started seeing patterns in the world; from days and nights to seasons, the movement of stars, weather, and human life itself. They observed that nature works in cycles. Every beginning is followed by an end, and every end leads to a new beginning. They started symbolizing nature and its repeating cycles. However, this consciousness was not risen in every human being. In fact, most of the early people were unaware of these truths and were almost unable to comprehend the reason behind things. Only a small fraction was receptive to these new ideas and they were considered being crazy by others for having these very kind of strange ideas. For the common folks, there was no pattern, it was just as it was. The concept of an almighty creator God was not yet fully developed in that primitive human culture but mankind has started to believe, that there was a super...

MIRROR MIRROR ON THE WALL    What do you see when you look into a mirror? It projects a reflection of your world and shows it to you from your perspective. Everything in the mirror looks real and lively. It perfectly reflects the light and motion. An eye can see itself only through a mirror.  Mirror inverts everything that goes into it, it actually means that mirror flips; left into right and right into left, but how does a mirror work? There is actually nothing more than a thin coat of silver metal behind the surface of the glass that produces an illusion of infinite depth. Here, we see that a infinitesimal (nearly equal to zero) thin coat of a metal can produce the illusion of infinite depth (distance). When we look into a mirror, we are in fact looking at a  zero  that produces the illusion of  infinite , by using the properties of light alone.  Now think of our world as a projection, just like the projection of a mirror. This infinite loo...

Stories are eternal. The stories in themself are immortal and are like souls. They exist forever as ideas or thoughts. The plot and characters are mortal, like physical bodies they die after a certain period of time. To interpret a story is like interpreting life and existence itself. There should be deeper meaning, grand purpose and profound insight that is needed to be underlined or highlighted. A simple, bland and random life is not worth remembering, and so is such a story. But actually, no life is simple, bland and random. It is just interpreted that way because people lack the concepts to understand their complexity, flavour and reason. Once you start assigning meaning, purpose and insights into a story, you will get closer to the ultimate answer to life and existence. It's up to you how you understand and comprehend any story. We are surrounded by the stories all around us. We all are merely stories in the end, too. The stories that we ourselves wrote, within this spacetime ...

We want to build an army of mental warriors. Who are always fighting to conquer the mind. They are Idealists and Rational souls, who aim to achieve the highest knowledge of the universe. In an other dimension of this quantum universe, it is essentially possible to inhabit a new world, with selected ideas, like the idea of mathematics, that can not only change our world but whole of our universe. Each step of the journey is made by following the soul instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance. Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later will give rejection to the illusory worldview, grafted upon them from birth, through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality that others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening.  We are not the people of faith and beliefs. We d...

   There is a new social media app in the town. It's called JunkBox.   You must be wondering how is it unique and what are the special benefits of this app over the so many other social-media platforms.     JunkBox is promoted as the social media of junkies, making them into super-junkies where they can interact with similar minded junkies and share and celebrate their famous celebrities.   Facebook and other social media apps have already swiped the minds of common folks clean. They have literally no attention span, no concentration. They can’t focus enough on a complex topic, they have already forgotten how to read intellectual subjects. Subjects like science, philosophy and mathematics find them boring, and so they hate books and hate everything that could prove some productivity into their lives.   But, yet they can watch endless reels on social media, share countless memes and can talk non-stop about their favorite celebrity....

“Hey folks! Did you hear? Li’l prince is coming here tomorrow”, Clapping Monkey was excited to announce.   “How do you know for sure?”, the Electronic Boxy Girl Doll asked.  “Well, I heard the shop owner talking to the manager, he said Li’l prince wants to buy some toys”, Monkey replied.  “God! I'm so excited to meet Li’l prince, last time he visited, he bought so many of us and took them with him”, Baby birdie fingerling was dancing in excitement.   “What the hell are you excited for?”, Super villain action figurine came out of the toys, holding a gun in his hands, “Li’l Prince like Action heroes, I am sure he will buy me this time.”   “Okay, but you are not a hero, you are a villain”, Baby birdie cried in anger.   “Hey Hey Hey, calm down guys. We don’t know who Li'l prince will take with him, Li’l prince is the Li’l prince and it will be his decision only”, Clapping Monkey tried to conciliate everyone.   “Monkey is right, th...
