Dear all...THIS IS FOR ALL STUDENTS WHO FEEL THEY ARE WEAK, HAVE ARREARS, CAN'T SPEAK ENGLISH, FEEL THAT THEY CAN'T GET JOB PLACEMENTS, CAN'T SUCCEED IN LIFE...
During childhood i had lots of oppurtunities to grow all sorts of plants, trees, animals, insects, be with them, observe them, grow with them, learn a lot about Nature and philosophies of life and living.
If you observe Neem, Peepal, banyan tree etc, they can't be destroyed. They grow even with out water. They are the ones with lush green in the hottest summer too. They send their roots far and deep inside the ground in search of water. In this process their root system becomes very strong, thick, deep, wide and wild. Their shoot system may be small giving us a feeling that it is a small plant, but the roots are very deep and thick. If you cut their shoot system, they don't die. Instead they give out many branches and grow more vigorously wide and wild, thick and strong.
They grow tall. But after some time of their growth they give out many branches. They make their base trunk strong. Their strong trunk and deep and wide root system does not allow them to fall due to storms. They also avoid soil erosion and soil erosion nearby can't make them fall. They give out dense branches, leaves, fruits, good breeze, lots of oxygen, coolness, lots of shade, attract lots of birds for fruits, nesting, lots of small birds...lots of children play under them and enjoy...even oldies too...give cool nights!!...They also give out roots from their branches which go to ground and create large number of thick and strong trunks and far and wide roots.
While doing tree plantation we don't have time, patience and money to make deep pits so that the trees send their roots far and deep and become strong, so that they don't fall during heavy winds and due to soil erosion. We tend to plant them on the surface of the soil, make a banner, make quick-thousand pits, plant 1000 saplings, take a video and photos, post them here and there...all these are good...they have many positive effects every where....i am not saying 'no' or 'bad'...these are good, holy efforts...but some one has to water them for many years, take care of them nicely which is hard, otherwise they die...who can do this?...These fast growing trees spread their roots on the surface only and fall down due to heavy winds. So, What is the use??
So, plant more of these neem, peepal and banyan trees during tree plantation!!...They will live, live long, strong, forever and give you great memories in later years!!...Imagine, if you plant one of these trees once in a week during child hood week end, four trees in a month, 48 trees in a year...when you become 50 years old, you would have created a big forest!!...Can you imagine the beauty of it!!...The best is you don't have to water them and no need to take care!!..They take care of themselves!!
ok...what are the lessons of life from these plants...?????
1. Take your time but go deep, far, wide and wild like these trees, in your journey of acquiring knowledge, skills, positive personality traits, adapting to all kinds of variables in the surroundings with people, climate, dividing stuff etc. Remember, these are the things that will get you job, good name, growth in job, health, happiness, contentment, fulfillment, peace and self actualization.
2. If you have arrears, don't worry. No one lives here for 100 years. First ranker might lose peace, happiness and health, burn out and die early and you might live long. Being a 9 pointer helps to get only the first job. It is not going to ensure full life success. Being a hard worker and committed in the job only brings success. Grow like these trees...slow, steady but strong everywhere!!....When you are cut with arrears, give out many branches and grow with more vigour and fire like these trees. Don't fall down, dry up and die like other trees!!
3. Take time, but grow a strong base (like these trees) with your strong fundamental concepts of science, engineering or philosophies of life, beliefs, value systems etc. Let these be generic and does not bring in you hate to anything and anyone.
4. When your root system is strong you can not be uprooted due to all the wild storms or dynamics/ups and downs in policies, industry, economics, change in politics, politicians (Trump or Modi) etc. You will not fall down like these trees.
5. After you grow your trunk (i.e basics) strong, after few years, give out branches and grow in many other interdisciplinary and allied fields too. So that you become big, tall and strong. You can never be cut and killed by those who want to cut your growth.
6. These trees don't compare themselves with others. They don't compete with others. They don't look at others. They don't waste their time and get distracted. They only focus on they becoming strong, deep, tall, broad, with strong trunk, branches and roots. And they become monsters of goodness to all living organisms on/under them!!...All other trees will die in the times of change, but they will remain strong forever!!
So, plant more neem, peepal and banyan trees and live like these trees!!
Peacefully yours...Rams...Psychologist!!
