 Why 5 ?

Have you ever wondered why do we humans precisely have five fingers? I mean not four not six, why five! Was it gods favorite number? Or did he just just randomly choose like-" hey man i like the number five, lets give my creation five fingers"  That would be hilarious right!?

     Well that's totally not the case, he did it precisely to honor the five elements namely-Water, Earth, Ether, Air, Fire. 

Yes, you heard me right, the five elements of nature. No need to believe just on my words, i can give you simple examples, so lets start from the element one-

Water: I do not know about other nations but in India, be it in school or collages, kids or adults if anybody holds up their pinkey finger it signifies that they want to go to the washroom for pee😂 like i know its kind of funny but why do they hold only the pinkey finger at all? But knowing or not knowing they are holding up the finger that signifies the element Water.

Moving on lets talk about element number two 

Earth: let me ask you this, what the the word earth means to you? Like for me it can be many things- self-awareness, rooted, to be humble but most importantly it signifies "bonding" No wonder Engagement rings are worn on that specific finger which got the name ring finger. Respect to our mother element you know!

Okay its number three

Ether: why is the middle finger tallest of all if not out of respect to Cosmic? The thing that is out of reach!

Air: Remember in schools some angry teachers used to shout at us and say "KEEP QUIET!" "OR WHEN PARENTS SUSH THEIR CHILDREN WITH THE GESTURE ' HUSS' " Remember the gesture the use to do then? Yes the same old one- placing the index finger on the lips. Yes that is the finger for air!

Lastly the element 

Fire: the moment you got a praise or trying the show your passion or motivate yourself by holding up the thumb, yes that's the finger dedicated to your inner fire.

That would be all, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below and what i could improve. Thank you for reading.

Ichhe rb.jr R ecently I've gone through a book 'ichhe'.It is a story about a small boy who has lost his mother at the age of 7yrs and was brought up by his father all alone.His father always kept him strictly bounded by rules which the little fellow does not like at all.But the young heart can not make out the fact that his father was just being over protective after loosing his love.The boy always thought like as he is a child everyone dominates him,so every night he prays to God to let him an adult like his cousins.And finally that one day came when he prayed heartly to God and next morning he found himself in his adulthood or better to be called as in his late teens.The poor fellow cheered up in joy that finally he can take his own decisions,he can do things he like on his own.Most importantly no one will scold in his every aspect of life. But the funny part of life is that nothing stays forever.Soon he was been stroken by the bitter days.D

Modern Day Afterlife .   W hat is "Afterlife"? Afterlife is a concept existed through the millenium in every religion. It basically states that-" A human soul; after leaving one body, travells and sets in a new body or shell."  It is basically a driver changing his car.                       Now comming to the topic, "Modern day Afterlife", it is a theory by the way. So technically speaking, anything and everything that happens inside the human brain; is considered an 'ELECTRIC IMPULSE'. And every set of instructions given by the brain,every piece of memory we remember is or can be considered as DATA. And the electric impulse or the 'brainwave' is all about our ' conscious ' which can be defined as- 'Consciousness refers to your individual awareness of your unique thoughts, memories, feelings,sensations. Essentially your consciousness is your awareness of yourself and the world around YOU. This is very unique to you.'  It ca
