Making use of the popular puzzle of the arrival first of the hen or egg, the author is pointing out the phenomenal importance of the present moment.
Whether the hen arrived first or the egg is mot a question but a puzzle.We always try to solve a puzzle , but it seems that this particular one is unsolvable. There was always a possibility of getting a proper answer, if these were questions.However,this is a tough puzzle The puzzles are always the games of fun and floric and are often used merely as a nice means to pass time.
Once upon a time there was a long and intense discussion on this tough puzzle of the egg and hen. In a small hut , the so called wise people sat for discussion and had several arguments on both the sides as well ass
[27/10, 8:18 pm] P K Mathur: as some bad arguments too. No body could win in the lengthy discussion and all got only defeat in their kitty.Near by on a big mount of waste, a few hen chicks were jumping and dancing with joy without the knowledge of the aforesaid intense deliberations, being carried out collectively by the several people of wisdom om the very origin of the playing chicks themselves and finally getting fully lost in it. However, the chicks did not want to waste those moments of pleasure and fun in their lives.If the wise lpeople, instead of doing futile deliberations on the puzzle, would have become quite happy and calebtrated, if th
[27/10, 8:25 pm] P K Mathur: they had seen the real philosophy of life originated from theeggs and the chicks playing , jumping and dancing with joy.
[28/10, 11:45 am] P K Mathur: One always gets garbage only by ploughing the dry hillock containing the waste of the past dumped and burried there for extended periods of time. You are unaware that the present moment is getting exhausted very fast.This is extremely important,and we should never try to push it into the heap of garbage. In these moments there are instances of bright light and darkness and also those of pleasure and grief.One has to make the right choice.There are several provisions available but you can make only one promise in the real sense of the term. Whatever may be the various situations at that particular moment , you have to make the proper choice of the right direction only ,so as to proceed on your path of success and inner satisfaction.
The lovely and full of life chicks of the present moments are beckoning us and sincerely advising us to make the best use of them by virtually converting them into the festivals of great pleasure ,satisfaction and joy, before they get fully exhausted.

[29/10, 8:25 pm] P K Mathur: The author has discussed about the real aims of life and has cited many examples of our daily life to support his contentions.
It is a popular saying that if water is left free to itself, it makes it’s own surface level , but for this to happen, it has to necessarily flow in the downwards direction.The earth’s gravity is fully responsible for this. However , there are some obvious deviations where this general rule is not applicable. For example, water does climb up through a plant for sustaining its life and similarly,in an earthen lamp, the oil goes up the Vick to support it to burn and in turn to light the lamp. During the rainy season, when all the rivers are in spate and the river water flows violently at a very high speed, every thing present there runs fast with it towards the sea. Some sea water fishes , on the other hand are able to climb the reverse current and come into the river. Generally , we often say that the birds are flying in the sky. However, they fly in the air present there, not in the sky. The same birds will not be able to fly in moon’s environment , as inspite of the presence of the sky, the air does not exist there.
[29/10, 10:27 pm] P K Mathur: If we do make our observations with the needed concentration, we will find that whosoever flows along with the flow of various events and circumstances with no effort of his own,he just flows around. However, when he joins himself with his devoted and sincere workmanship,the results obtained are totally different and purposeful. As mentioned above , when water climbs up the plant,it starts the life process of the plant and the oil rising the Vick does make the oil lamp’s life fruitful and purposeful.Transfer of the fishes coming out from salt water of the sea does provide them a new fresh water home in the river. Migratory birds do find a base for their life lines and daily chores.
From the above description. , it can be safely concluded that by the dedicated and sincere workmanship, one can easily win over the difficult circumstances, posed by the Almighty Nature and finally achieve the desired aims of life.

The author has dealt in depth about one of the most important question in our lives, viz, “ what and how much of it is essential”. If there are no necessities and requirements, it will be useless to imagine that life.However, it is extremely essential to properly ascertain, by carrying out intense thinking and mutual discussions with the concerned people, the real necessity of various different things and their amounts , to run our lives conveniently with the desired efficiency.
While keeping the necessities of life in our minds, one should not cross the boundary line as this will be likes thirsty deer running in a hot desert in search of drinking water, which in reality does not exist at all. Just like this running exercise of the deer , it will be obvious that by crossing the boundary line , one will increase the thirst in a big way rather than quenching it in the real sense of the term
According to the “materialism” or the world market , the very thought of keeping the necessecities of life in control, restricts the development of the mankind and it is the eternal truth of the concept of the demand and supply. However, the principle of keeping the necessecities to the lower level does not contradict it . There is no denial at all for satisfying our essential needs, but when we very Iwill know that our final retirement is only two yards of land , then why each one of us is fully engaged in running this blind race. Statements such as,” why his shirt looks whiter than my shirt,” of the detergents sales man hides “ marketism” within it and the market does your emotional encashment .
All the different constituents of the Almighty nature do neither any competition with nor do any damage to others . A tree never wishes that it’s neighbouring tree does not attain the height greater than his own All big rivers make the small ones to meet them and then flow together towards their common destination , the big sea . The wind calls for its companions and tells them in its own way that let us all go together carrying various sweet and welcome flavours to fill the entire world with the enchanting and wonderful fragrance.. All these planets are the part of the Sun’s family with their own indidual disciplines.Nobody comes in the way of others. A bird flies in the morning to its destinations and when it returns to the nest in the evening, it does not have any collection of things. Tomorrow morning again it will fly and will fill its stomach depending on its hunger.
[31/10, 2:34 pm] P K Mathur: We can neither influence the speed of the passing time nor of the body voyage and the death and birth serial.Development of scientific knowledge has provided us a lot of different facilities but has failed miserably in giving us inner joy and internal satisfaction. Instead , it has taught us running faster and faster. Life is pretty full of several necessities, but it will be much better if one makes use of the theory of pleasure and satisfaction ,while taking care of fulfilling them.We should perceive that whatever things , we have obtained today, with them, we should be able to to attain our goal of wishes.
We should believe in the following saying, popular among the poor, “Thoda hai , Thode Ki jaroorat hai ; Zindagi khubsurat hai (There are few things, we need only few, life is indeed beautiful with them).
[31/10, 2:46 pm] P K Mathur: like “ a” thirsty ; very “ well “ know ; remove extra”to”.
