Spreading Positivity

Searching and Learning   I was searching for the real meaning of "search" and while searching, I found a really nice statement given by someone: "If you want to truly search yourself, then put your ear down close to your heart and listen hard." Who better can understand this statement? I work every day with hearing-impaired people and see that everyone has different kinds of difficulties. If I listen with my heart, I can best help and potentially change the lives of so many people. Through searching and learning about the difficulties of deaf kids, I have learned to search within myself. Recently, I got a call from one of my readers who said, "I read your article every Sunday in Janbhbhoomi Pravasi and felt compelled to ask you. I have had hearing difficulties for a long time. Do you think I should address my hearing problem, and if yes, do you think I can solve it?" I asked him in which situations he finds difficulty. He said, "Especially when talkin...

|| Humanizing AI:  The Power of Positive Engagement || Let's stand on the seashore during low tide and think about creating cosmic power. Stand a little away from the waves and ask them to come closer to you. Is it possible for the waves to reach you? No, it's a natural phenomenon—you can't control it, no matter how great your cosmic power is. This is just one example; there are many examples in nature where change is impossible. Similarly, no matter how advanced science becomes or how revolutionary artificial intelligence is, it cannot replace human intelligence. In today's world, people are fascinated by artificial intelligence, but we forget that it was created by humans. If humans can make mistakes, what about artificial intelligence? Just as humans learn from their mistakes and experiences, artificial intelligence should also be used after sufficient experience and should be employed for the well-being of humanity. How, by following science and the Western world, ...

||  VIRTUAL REALITY AND CHILDREN || Technology says "make me" and humans say "meet me." We are living in a virtual reality world, mesmerized by technology, though it is created by humans. Photography is virtual reality by capturing nature and humans on your smartphone, connecting you to the outer world and nature. However, when it becomes an illusion of competition and jealousy rather than creativity, it loses its value. Since the rise of social media, the real value of real people has been diminishing. There is a difference between the real beauty of any person and the beauty created using technology; when one loses this distinction, one loses the ability to visualize the real world as well. In the virtual world, people are losing the ability to differentiate between what is real and what is fake. On social media, it is rare to find a person who is the same in both the virtual and real worlds. Virtual reality is the new communication platform, allowing you to share...

|| TECHNOLOGY & HUMAN BEING || One of the leading corporate figures says, "We are changing the world with technology." However, do the sun, the moon, the stars, plants, nature, birds, and animals, existing in this universe like us, ever think of changing the world? A human being wants to make a change, but for what purpose? To make the universe better to create calamity, to lose emotions and feelings, or to control human power? Over the years, so many scientific changes have occurred due to technology, and ultimately, the result has been some natural calamities. Human beings have had to restart everything from living to leaving. The way humans have to grow, however, technology appears, the same way technology has to grow but in a direction where humans direct. Airplanes are made to reduce the distance between humans, but smartphones have been made to increase the distance between humans. Until the time technology helps humans survive, it is fine, but when it takes away hu...

|| REWIRING OF THE BRAIN || Positivity drives us towards rewiring of the brain. There is a whole new trend of rewiring the brain happening all around the world. When I attended an international conference this year in Atlanta, there was a whole discussion on rewiring the brain. In that, like any other senses, hearing is also equally important. Not only hearing through ears but also hearing your own self with conscious efforts.  We, as normal individuals involved in day-to-day activities, often think that rewiring is related to an electrician, where any damage can happen in electricity, such as burnt wires, loose connections, detached wires, or incorrectly placed wires. However, here we're talking about rewiring of the brain, which plays a very important part in real life. Like electrical wires, a lot of such incidents can happen in our lives; we get burnt or hurt by someone, or due to some disease, we lose neuron wiring, or many such incidents. But it is up to us how well and how f...
