2017 and 2018 - the final years of the decade of my 60's reminded me that I was getting old , feeling tired, and more sleepy during daytime,being deprived of the good night sleep- a trend I wanted to reverse but without success..these closing years also saw my life partner for more than 45 years to exit from earth and dissolve into cosmos never to return back abandoning me like an orphan...it took a lot of time to internalize the fact that my world even while my sweet girl was alive revolved around academics and there is no life beyond that -
No one could stop the ageing process and the power and beauty of youth will never return but the feeling of being young and energetic, one can always internalize and cherish that pleasant thought ...It appears that I cannot get back the memory and the scale of energy of the active period of academic life before retirement but I know full well that I do not have any other world except the academics and my better half will also desire that i must go back to my first love unmindful of my age related general weaknesses..
That is the only express way to escape from the Accumulation of the academic debris, and get liberation ; In the final weeks of 2018, I felt that i must have a continual engagement with my studies not only to come out of the shadows of my better half but also to discharge my responsibility to the academic community and my own students....
I sincerely hope that 2019 will be the beginning of the end of my laziness and tiredness and sense of diffidence and it will help inaugurate a new phase of active and productive life .. with the birth of the new year let a feverish enthusiasm will grip not just me but many to exploit their comparative advantage and march towards excellence and render all possible help to the fellow human..Fire crackers sound I hear now we shall pray for a better world freed from famine and hunger, violence and vandalism and all kinds of destructive nationalism in the global village
