Order or disorder - is the million dollar question

(A poem starts here)
O God!
You gave me birth
You only shall decide my death
My life span is controlled by thee
But O my dear God!
Will thee not allow me
To have my own signature
On this life?
This life
Of course, gifted by you
Must carry my own imprints.
O my dear God!
I am very polite - when i say so -
Kindly! Dare not interfere with this little span.
O my dear God!
I am sure you understand the emotions of this child of yours!
( The poem ends here)

Order only can make us exist and disorder only can make us evolve. I want to evolve because i want to make some change. To evolve i must create disorder. To evolve i must exist and to exist! I must retain the order. Thus i express my fundamental confusion.

So, i need to define the limitation of my existence. It must be minimum possible - just to survive - so that i can have some canvas to paint my evolution. Very interesting. If i exist fully, i just exist. No contribution of mine and no growth of my individuality. If i evolve at full pace, i cease to exist. Hence minimum existence only allows me to grow and evolve.

So, let us come to the conclusion. I'll control my existence parameters. I'll try not to make my existence felt in as many areas as possible. I'll become like water - colorless and tasteless. Then, i'll be able to create some space for disorder. Disorder - which will enhance my individuality and let me evolve to my maximum possible.

The lesson for all of us - the more we limit ourselves, the more we are able to expand ourselves.

Lesson number two - follow common minimum order for survival and let your imagination redefine the rules for all the rest!

Be yourself. All the best.

Order or disorder?
Really a million dollar question.

Being in order you can't evolve yourself and being in complete disorder you can't be in society. So why not strike a balance between order and disorder. A mixology may lead towards the real destination.

Dear Sir, I would like to share a student’s experience with u and all readers. Two years back a young lad who just got over with his 12th board visited you (varun sir) for counselling. His dilemma was whether to leave Ujjain for CAT-preparation or not? You advised him to stay back in Ujjain and work under your guidance. But just like every other young blood he over looked your advice or better says “he failed to limit himself" and joined the same PT institute in a metro city instead of PT-UJJAIN. After facing hardships of living in a metro city for two long years he came back to you (varun sir) as the last resort,
Let’s reveal the mystery, that student is ME. Sir Ji I truly agree with your lesson number one-the more we limit ourselves the more we are able to expand ourselves. Sometimes it becomes very important to limit one’s desires.

Sir,I am very happy to have you on the blog.
It is a new platform to share the knowledge and information. I read your article but I just confused about a lesson which you share is, "the more we limit ourselves, the more we are able to expand ourselves."
sir with my great curiosity can you please elaborate it.
Yours Proton,
Abhishek Soni

Monika : Thank you very much for your beautiful summary. Of course, a proper mix is the requirement. But how to do it is the billion dollar question! :-)

Anonymous : Thank you for your heartfelt expression, but boss! The mystery is still not revealed. Come on! We can help better when we know each other.

By the way, I am sure of your golden success because you are very open and tend to learn from every experience of life.

Abhishek : To expand, we need to follow a plan religiously. Executive discipline requires us to put ourselves in check. Isn't it?

Jagadish and Chaitali : Thank you very much for reading the blog and posting comments.

Respected sir,
i really enjoyed your blog and especially this poem it was very inspiring . It suddenly aroused a question in that 'why' of my being , one can make only temporary aims for himself but the ultimate road only god can guide us through .I really had a very good experience writing this comment for you because it is after a really long time that i have sat down writing something i do or believe . Sir 'below i am posting a song that is really close to my heart and inspires me in times of despair i am a poem lover so i can only do this to express my thoughts
faithfully your's


Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
And our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we know we could
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I am standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near

There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
Just believe
You will when you believe

Sir, it is always a great pleasure to listen you.
You tell us things in such a way that i just want to follow that. Thank you sir for making me understand that we have to make a proper balance between order and disorder.

good evening oh sorry good morning sir i am sarang
it is right- Order only can make us exist and disorder only can make us evolve
when we learn something new it creats disorder in our mind and in the practice of orderly arranging new factsw we evolve our self
This order is our evolved life which make us exist
But if we do not learn or gain knowledge disorder will not be there in our minds.Order will always be there so we would not try to do anything to evolve
But if we
