Biofun

Reading has always been my asset. I always love to read a lot,so far i have read many novels,fiction,adventure and many types of book.I haven't read a book (other than my books for academics) which actually correlates a subject to the real world.

Few weeks ago,I started reading one amazing book titled:-BIOLOGY OF BELIEF:Unleashing the power of consciousness, Matter& Miracles. Like Freakonomics,this one is a perfect amalgamation of both biology and philosophy,this one actually explains Biology in philosophical terms.The author draws a thin line between biology and philosophy which makes us very clear about what is going to be conveyed.This isn't a book,it's a journey of Bruce H Lipton.His terminologies are excellent and terms gene a superstar ,smart cells,magical membrane,parents as Genetic Engineers and many.This excites me the most which kept me engaging and motivating to read further.This one also made me realize that anyone could develop a new concept and interpret in some way but the way you execute your concept matters the most.The way you preach the concept to the students is everything.Here comes the most interesting part,Let me share one concept which he described how protein machine works:-

He chose a wind up watch to represent the workings of the cell.The 1st picture shows a metal machine with gears,springs and case of watch model.When Gear A turns it causes Gear B to turn.When B moves it causes Gear C to turn .In the next one,He replaced machine gears with organic proteins so it becomes conceivable that proteins could be more like a watch mechanism.In this metal protein machine one can imagine protein A rotating and causing B to revolve which in turn makes C to move.In the 3rd image we are left with a protein machine.Thousand's of protein are interlinked in this way.
The way he unfolds the concept layer by layer makes it even more interesting,I should say this guy knows Science is fun.

Make love for science.

What actually defines you?

Few questions that I always ask myself  Is it the social intelligence that defines you? Is it the good looks that defines you? Is it the physical health that defines you? We have many ways to quantify intelligence,looks and physical health. Intelligence can be quantified with the help of so called I.Q (Intelligent Quotient), Looks can be quantified based on the Age/tone of your skin/your smile etc. Likewise, Health can also be quantified based on diet you follow / Exercise to keep yourself fit each day. All the parameters mentioned above not exactly define you.They are tools to assess you at that particular instant. Human minds are not static,they swing in different directions. Life is an integration of situations/instances that you face over time. Decision making is always difficult because the future of the curve is decided by decisions that you make. It is very hard to sustain your momentum going but when you choose different track you have to make sure that you follo
I still don't understand how people zero down to a particular subject without knowing about the subject.Students take up the specific subject as their lifetime career after finishing their school but how students have zeroed down  one specific subject without leaving a question to others? Do we need to live the life the way comes and go along with that? How people say that "I'm really passionate about this" without knowing the subject? all these questions kept me boggling throughout the day and night. Let's take my case I took up biotech as my career after my 12th still I don't know why? keep this apart,I don't think even after undergoing 6 months of lectures,assignments,exams,practicals....... won't provide sufficient base for us to develop interest.I still remember a famous saying by John Nash that-"Hours of lecture will make you dull and makes you averse towards that subject."I'm in a state of predicament where I can't find my i

The Oscillations of life

Why human always tend to be perfect? In this society,we have framed an agenda on how society should look an individual. Frame-worked in such a way that others should only have positive opinion on us. Agree with the fact that we should be doing that to have healthy relationships in the society. When one undergoes the toughest phase of his life,why is the society ignoring them? I feel that when society ignores him he may undergo different emotions, this could be the main reason for creating aversion towards the society. Just talk to them, make them feel secure , create an environment in a such a way that divert his mind against aversion. Please never ignore them, because they make a beautiful life. What life means to me? Life is a combination of mixed feelings,thoughts.......... "Life is like a piano.White keys are happy moments and black keys are sad moments.But remember both are played together to give sweet music." This is one of my favourite quotes. I have the habit
