Igniting minds to develop problem solvers and researchers for a sustainable world
The Attention fixation
We are caught between the dichotomy of seeking and paying attention more than ever before in the history of the world. Where is it taking us? Can we think of a positive direction in our thought? Read on to discover, and uncover
The happiness conundrum
Like Edgar Allan Poe’s famous short story, ‘The Purloined Letter’, happiness lies hidden and buried at the most unassuming of places. It lies concealed behind a thin film, waiting to get revealed. Can we take up the challenge?
The art of listening
We do not have the time to listen. It is seldom a priority, being weighed down by several incidents bombarding us constantly. However unless we give our mind really where it needs most, we will lose out we won’t know when.
Good listening
In a world where 33% of the population suffers from loneliness, it is being hailed as the new epidemic. The panacea lies in meaningful communication that can be made possible by active listening.
The dimensions of listening
It is the little things that matter most, they say. And one of them, for sure, is listening. But is it really that ‘little’? Not quite, it seems though.
Values and virtues of listening
We should make a conscious effort to be better listeners, putting aside distractions and engaging with people and information around us. The art of listening is transformative, connecting us, fostering collaboration, and propelling us forward.
Maths: in the world and beyond
Mathematics is the hidden artist painting the canvas of our existence. Its beauty transcends mere calculations, resonating in the symmetries of nature, the harmonies of art and music, and the innovations that shape our future.
Maths is everywhere
If there be one constant factor in every creation or artefact in the world and beyond, man made or natural, it is Mathematics. Nothing escapes its embeded signature. Most students unfortunately are caught up in its snare and fear, .losing its primal essence and beauty.
Our world of Maths
Mathematics is the silent orchestrator that harmonizes the complexities of our world, transforming the mundane into the extraordinary. Its pervasive influence in various facets of life enhances our understanding, problem-solving abilities, and appreciation for the intricate beauty woven into the fabric of existence, ultimately making our lives wonderfully enriched and interconnected.
The world of Imagination
The frontiers of the human mind are infinite. This, however is the least realised and underrated realisation among humankind. What follows is cloistered expressions, low self esteem. It is time to know who we are and what we can. Time to explore our boundless minds.
The power of Imagination
The workings of the human imagination forms the basis of our progress, growth and aspirations. This makes a closer look at its workings worth the effort. Over centuries, humanists have given us insights into this realm. Here, let us explore this realm with young learners.
Mysteries of Art and Imagination
Lofty as it may seem, Imagination is not everyone’s cup of tea. Or so it appears. Unleashing it requires courage. But is it that difficult? How else can we wreak the change?
Decoding Imagination
The mind holds a lot; but its impact depends on what is unleashed by Imagination, that conceals its deepest powers.
Grow your mental strength
The mind is all that matters. It is where all strength and power emerges. Sadly, we do not give it as much importance as we should.
My encounter with Mental Strength
What makes one complete is his mental strength. More importantly, the realisation of its importance and struggle to acquire. Here follows an account straight from a young mind and heart…
Get mentally strong
It has been a common human practise to prioritise the external than what lies within. The same applies for our strength. It is worth digging deep to find out why…
