Philosophy of
Dearness
When I coined the term “Philosophy of Dearness” and
wanted to check if there is something already on the social spectrum.
Interestingly the google was suggesting “Philosophy of Darkness”. This gave me
a lot of inquisitiveness to write about it and its relevance to dearness and
there by its relevance to Happiness
The whole cosmos has born out of darkness.
Practically speaking, we never had an opportunity to experience the real
darkness in our day-to-day lives. When power is off, the candle light (or UPS)
gives us the direction. Parents show the light of path to children by taking
loads of responsibility. Father books a Tatkal ticket to his daughter; mother
stores extra pocket money in kitchen for her son. Boy friend takes more care of
his girl than himself; Teacher preaches more about life skills of his students
than his children.
When I look upon above these above acts, there is
one common thread that keeps all intact is – Dearness. Because of our dearness
to someone, we tend it takeout the darkness from the situation. I firmly
believe no one can remove darkness in our lives, because it’s natural and
purest form. But one can bring the light through various acts in ones’ life.
Relationships give more emphasis on Dearness. Sometimes
it’s difficult to gage its connection with an individual. But the common cord
of dearness that plays a soothing music between.
When I was pursuing my PhD, it was full of darkness.
Applied and got rejected without knowing the reasons. Again applied and got its
acceptance due to dearness. After its manifold directions, I could complete the
PhD. The only factor that made me to complete the task was…my dearness to
darkness. My special thanks to SCSVMV University, FICCI & my association with
corporate India and for their guidance in dark.
Darkness
creates manifold of happiness. It’s just in the room of dearness. Access it
