Think of it like this - one film, one picture, one shot. Nothing else.
Just One.
How does this film become multi-dimensional? Light. What's light? Light defines the distance there exists for one entity to acknowledge an event (ie, to realize that an event has happened). Now, let's take this a step further - let's assume that everything (and this means past, present and future - everything) was created at the same moment - all events. These events were exposed (read: brought to life) by the 'light' at different times in history. Now, let's visit the basics:
distance = speed * time.
Faster the speed, more the distance, lesser the time. Hence, distance and time are inversely proportional. Hence, speed is the inversely proportional factor b/w distance and time. Here, if you were to replace 'distance' with light, what we get is:
Light is inversely proportional to time - what I spoke about in my last blog. So, there is an equation in our midst and I did not see it. Silly of me.
If you break the speed of light, what you will do, is that you will see the future. This is how it transpires. Let the time now be 'x'. Light exposes an event at time 'x+5'. You with your current speed see it at time 'x+5' (this is a future event). Now if you were to travel faster than light, in all probability, you will see this happening at 'x+3' - 2 units of time before it actually takes place. If one were to travel faster than light, you will see the event happening before the light exposes it to the world. You will see the future. What I am unable to explain is how do you travel in the past (if that's true). I do believe that that, too, is possible. It's just that I am unable to put the pieces together right now to explain it.
This poses a lot of open questions. I am having a headache now to frame those questions.

Time, Light and Us
A couple of days back I had started to write on time travel. But I had to stop since I do not carry the prerequisite knowledge on the subject. There were just too many questions such as "If you were to break the speed of light, will you travel back in time?". With my (read: genuine) handicap of being unable to read beyond international current affairs, I wasn't sure what was said on this subject. Had a chat with Aseem where he mentioned basically it is said that the aging process of a being will slow down the closer it approaches speed of light. Relatively speaking, what this means is that you are moving slower than the time in your dimension. Assuming this, there is a possibility that once you break the speed of light, you will start moving back in time. Anyway, not being a subject matter expert on this, this could all be a fallacy for all you know. But what is of relevance and possibly proven by our dear friend Einstein is that the speed of light is the barrier to any such alterations.
This brought me to the question of "why light". Why not sound? Why not a figure other than the speed of light? Why not something other than light? What's so special about light? Well, we really don't know. But let's just think what we can derive out of all this.....
1. If light can change certain things and possibly the time dimension you are in then there must be a relationship b/w light and time (there has to be an equation). From what I know, there is none at the moment. So, if you wish to travel in time, figure this one out. You will get your answer to time travel.
2. Again, if you were to look at it holistically, light is nothing but energy. But it seems that this form of energy has some characteristics which gives it it's capability to travel "through" time. So, light seems to be an immense source of energy (this means we are not tapping it enough). It can very easily solve our energy issues. You need to first understand when I use the word immense, feel the significance of what I am saying. Then you will realize that this is possibly a highly under-utilized source of energy at the moment. We need more research here.
Now, this forces me to digress from this topic and take you to another source of energy - nuclear - fision or fusion. If atoms carry such immense energy to power a whole city and they reside within us, can you imagine the level of energy that resides within us? It's like saying that if I were to plug a human into a power grid, we can possibly generate enough energy to keep the world running for years infinitum. I know it sounds ridiculous (and diabolical) but all I want you to realize is the amount of energy that resides within us as well as remains (somehow) under control. A very interesting mechanism worth exploring.
So, with all this hullabaloo we just figured out two sources of energy that can in all probability power the systems ad infinitum. Why are we crying over fossil fuels so much?
So, if anyone bothers to read this blog - you got two takeaways - (1) figure out an equation between time and light specifically for which you need to figure out the quantum of energy that resides in a unit of light and then see how does it equate with time. (2) Try understanding the amount of energy that exists within us or any living being for that matter and what does this mean.
ps - The relationship b/w light and time should form something of a nature where light is inversely proportional to time assuming the closer you get to the speed of the light the slower you get w.r.t to the speed of time. Stupid thoughts? Deviating from my "I don't care" attitude, I would really like to hear your thoughts just in case you know something that I don't. I am sure there's ample. Post your comments if they can add value to my (uninformed) opinions.

just the day..
It's 9pm here and I just woke up. My timings have really gone for a toss. I sleep in the evenings and then stay up till 5 in the morning - either playing snooker with aseem and the others or listening to music. Haven't picked up a book for ages. Crap. This is not good.
We had a field visit today. For anyone who wanted to know about the wafers and biscuits industry, it was a good insight. What I did miss, was a talk about one of the managing partners of Frost and Sullivan in Singapore on Consultancy. But luckily, Aseem attended, so one of us was there to hear him.
Aseem seems quite inclined in getting into the consultancy business while I am not as keen. It's not like I wouldn't want to set up a consultancy but I feel it will take longer to take off as you first need to build a reputation before you start targeting bigger businesses where the real money lies and I really don't have the time to wait for that long. Anything that we do must be worth selling or disinvesting in 3-4 years.

Illusion
I am so high, I can hear heaven
I am so high, I can hear heaven
Whoa, but heaven...no, heaven don't hear me
Flashback....I was moved from nursery to the 1st grade. I moved from Dubai to AD. I had lost all my friends. I had barely done my alphabet when I was supposed to be reading some stupid books. All this due to the fact that my dad found it rather stupid that 3 of his kids would be in the same school while the youngest of the brood (moi) will be a distance away. He was basically too lazy to go to 2 places to pick us up. We weren't the bus types until much later. That's my dad!
That wasn't easy. I had a handicap. I just didn't know what people were doing in the class. Heck, I didn't even know which book to take out as I couldn't really read...I struggled but pulled up my socks (thanks to my mom) and managed...
Flashback again.....12th. I had a lot of family issues going on. Mom wasn't keeping well, plenty of other issues too. I know how I got through. I did.
Fast forward to present....MBA Finance - don't understand a shit. History repeats itself. I carry a handicap again. So, let it be.....inshallah....he pulled me out earlier. He will pull me out again...it is time to pull up my socks again.....
What am I waiting for? Miracle? Miracles reside in you. Believe this world is an illusion. There is nothing as 'reality'. The day you break this barrier, there is nothing stopping you. Think Matrix. This world does not exist. Not even you - it's an illusion which can be controlled/changed if you desire to do so. But you have to break the realms of 'reality'. 'Reality' is a barrier that you have created for yourself.
Look deep inside you and realize what you are doing and what you are capable of. An honest judgment of utilization of your capability will help you realize how much much more you can do. If I were to look at myself, I am quite sure I am utilizing myself at say, 3-5% of my mental capacity and that too, in a very haphazard manner. The rest 95%, too, has been given to you by God for use.
But you need to unlock the door first. Find the key. To each his own, I look for mine.
Mental capability is divided into stages. The first 5%-7% is 'unlocked' by default to almost all individuals if not all. And we do not even make use of this. Then the stages begin. I am unaware of how many stages exist but I would possibly put them as below:
below 7%
8-15%
15-30%
30-40%
I am not too sure of the stages beyond this. I do feel that that the 8-15% and 15-30% may be just one stage with one key. So, can you imagine how would it be if you enter the 8-30% bracket? Unbelievable....and that's just the beginning.
Now, the mind, brains etc.....is just fine but where does the heart stand it all of this. The capability to use your 'processing power' does not necessarily mean you know how to use it. This capability does not qualify you as 'wise'. Please understand - 'wise' is not how sharp you are, it's about how you use this capability. We are all prisoners in this world. His judgment on the day of resurrection will decide whether you were 'wise' or otherwise.
If the para above didn't make sense to you, it's ok. What you need to understand is that the heart and mind are controlling mechanisms over each other. If either goes out of synch with the other (and when I say, synch it means that one has lost 'influence' over the other - 'control' would not be an apt word as these two work in tandem and should not control each other) the person does not ever meet his complete potential. The person may do very well in a certain aspect with the strong processing power provided but the overall potential is lost somewhere. This is not about the last day. This is not about the Day of Resurrection. This is pure common sense.
So, as you unlock the secrets of the mind, there is a 'heart' angle to it. This, now, suddenly, brings me to the question of the potential of the heart. Why have we not thought about it. If , today, the mind and heart have a decent influence over each other in us and we are performing at <7% capacity then even the heart has stages of capability? Hadn't thought about that earlier. Interesting....quite interesting....
How do we open the heart? I donno. Not that I have an answer to the 'key' for the mind either......
This world is an illusion....watch as it changes every moment....He is sending a constant wake up call to us all about what we are capable of unlocking within us. Nothing more.
Watch....
