Happy World Theaters Day...!!!

Hello Everyone, after long time I m here to share something with all of you.
As we know that today is a day when we celebrate World Theatre Day, a day when we have so many outstanding & high range of quality & quantity of Drama in a form of play which we can see & enjoy in theaters.
Drama performances are too good & fruitful to see & observe in various ways to look at.here I m going to share something about one of my favourite drama named 'Yerma' (Barren)is a play by the Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca. It was written in 1934 and first performed that same year. García Lorca describes the play as "a tragic poem." The play tells the story of a childless woman living in rural Spain. As I think that a play or a drama performance has such quality to show the inner & outer side of the particular content matter or depth of the story as it can indicates a performance which already has benefit within it's matter of preparations to attract us.another is
that it's an art to entertain & teach us something with anyhow connect with us. In this drama performance if we try to focus then we have the same feelings towards it.as it has that depth & highly regarded sentiments to connect us with it's own part of the story well.Sometimes we can not share something which we have sometimes by force or by some fear we may destroy or hide it from other.at that time we may adjust with that but at some point when we have overflow of that emotions & sentiments which we forced to hide may goes on high scaling as a spring which by pressuring goes much higher that indirectly shows that how it can not a thing which we can hide or pretend but it definitely will be a drastic weapon to face the situation with it's own way of judge the same.Yerma-Barren,in it's name we may get idea to started thinking on it.a childless woman who has too much emotions,sentiments in her life yet just because of her lack Of being mother she cruelly misbehaved or getting too much hatred from her own husband & society surrounded her.
With the passing of time she had that condition which can not help her to come out from all of that behaviors & way of treatment she had from her dear & near members
.A woman who generally has no rights & priority to raise her voice & to share her preference but mostly she used to get ignorance only. In this drama also we have the same feelings towards Yerma who has such condition which she had to face in isolation & depression when she treated baldly even her husband didn't try to understand her feelings at that time she must had to take the step against that situation as well as her own unbearable condition of mind which actually forced her to fight against that.
Yerma strongly faced that situation at the end of the play when she killed her husband by attacking a pot & as some critics opinionated that she by herself ended her own way of getting fulfilment to become a mother of a child.but the way of behaving & reactions she had before badly forced her mentally to end it all.
At the end,I would say that if such drama performances are with us to indicate to highlight current touched issues & matters we may be an eyewitness to connect it with our surroundings also.
Yerma a woman who has no child her name intentionally selected which means Barren.
Just of because of a child if her husband & society didn't response her or support her she lose her all hope & desires & how she became cruel or forced to be that was not merely a scene to end the situation but it has that depth of her inner condition of mind which she suffered badly. She didn't want to have power or any high comforts but she wished to be filled with honor,respect & support throughout her life to at least come out from her disturbed condition of mind & lack of a child.
A balanced relationship was not there which can support her to adjust with that situation instead of that she had to face it with isolation,depression & ignorance that reacted very emotionally as well as cruelly.
At last, I would say that it's a good & emotional drama which has the same connection with recent social issues surrounding us where a woman has to die all her desires & feelings & just remains a puppet of her surroundings which never can be ready to accept any lack or fault of a woman. At that time how that suppressed victimized personality reacted to show all her anger,inner emotions & expectations that was quite touching & ever lasted in our mind. That all can be possible to touch our mind through such an art of drama performances & by celebrating such special days we try to give honour to such incredible touched art.
Have a good time...
Happy World Theatre Day to all of u....!!!

Journey as a teacher in School

Hello everyone,

After long time i spare some time with you to share some interesting views from my professional beginning journey.From June to today still when i am going to complete a year in this field then also i am learning something new & new & by that i can update myself better.

Whom we teach..?, Where we teach..?, What we teach..?, How we teach..? and Why we teach..? these all are require to focus on from very beginning of the journey.because after that only we can be able to deal with this profession.

Let's see how i apply above points in my journey.

Whom we teach..?
- First of all know your learners
-know their backgrounds
-know their abilities
-Know their limitations
-Know their inner strength & fear if have any
-Give them space to fly
-Provide them enough sources of information & require knowledge
-Try to solve their difficulties
-Be an inspiration for them
-Just guide them & Then they must find a ground to be self capable to develop separately
-Insist freedom to fly openly to color their imaginations
-Lead them towards their destination

Where we teach..?
-It connects with an institution & a place in which we are going to deal with our future learners
-Know your institution first then follow it's rules & regulations
-Respect it with your manners
-Be aware with its atmosphere of both inner & outer sides
-Make a family there but yet try to manage some gape between you & institution & its different parts as well
-In between all the situation make yourself updated
-A class being a part of the same is a place to show your all talents & knowledge
-A class should not feel burden & suffocation but in it learners should be free to express anything & to explore anything
-In between its walls one should not feel like a prison but they should get it as a stage to perform their abilities
-It should be like an open ground to fly for coloring the dreams they have in their eyes
-It should be a platform that can give them space & opportunities to build their dreams & the ways towards destination they decided
-With homely feel it should also give them touch of learning environment where they are actually in

What we teach..?
-What we teach is necessary to focus on when we expect some feedback from students
-Generally a content seems easy to read & write but how to deal with that to explain to the students each word & meaning of that is very necessary to focus on
-It should not be hard to understand for them but our explanations should be much deeper,resourceful & enough to understand that particular word & meaning of the same
-Even hard content also they should get easily with their understandings & with our help of explaining them
-Through content they should rise more questions to go inside to the content & to increase some knowledge relate that too
-A content should connect them with more new topics & by that they can be aware & enough prepared for their contents
-It should not limited to the unit but with that it should give outer information to connect that particular topic with some other content that can increase the level of learner's understanding & area of interest
-It should be full of interest that can high up the learner's curiosity
-Without making it boring we should try to give it lightness to explain to the students in a very polite & gentle manners
-It should be endless in a way of interest & with that it should end with completeness,without any confusion
-It should not create confusion but it should give chance to be creative

How we teach..?
-A way of teaching is important to deal with when we have learners before as who have different capacities & limitations
-Our method of teaching is quite necessary to look at when we have students having different class,background & level of getting the things shared by our sides
-It should not simple but should not even hard,it should to the understanding level of each & every learner of the class
-With simplicity we should try to make it interesting to attract the learners to the point
-By our way of teaching we should explain every level of the students any point of the topic satisfactory
-With questions they should also have some ideas in advance to solve that query from our discussed explanatios
-Teaching should not remain to the point only but through methods we should give them enough knowledge & information to switch over to the next point for more details by intended to increase the level of knowledge as well

Why we teach..?
-A significant matter to look at is why we actually teach..? so in its answer we can say that to make learners enough capable to stand in a queue of recent generation
-Teaching is important to share knowledge,information & new things to the next generation in a perfect way to give them a good impact
-By teaching we can give them chance to be ready for fulfill their dreams & be capable to fight against any challenges & situations
-Teaching is a tool to build a way towards destination & think to reach there with full of energy & capacities one have
-It is a good way to serve a learner by resources,knowledge & information we have to make them capable for today's demanding time
-In today's time when your updated nature is require to stand properly there a teacher can help you to support it well
-Truly without teacher you can no doubt get knowledge & sources but how it can utilize that only a teacher can learn you properly
- In a true manner they can guide a learner & show them a way to build their career in a right direction.

Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Thank You.... 

Self Benefits against Moral Values

Hello everyone,
Here I am sharing some personal views regarding today's newspaper article on present burning issue - Releasing movie 'Padmavat' or not..?
In this present article Shyam Parekh writes that such issues & problems only can take place in society when we people are standing to show our casteism but Is it true..? Are we really gathered & plans such intentions..? Can we have such leisure time to spread in such..? To provoke society for create issues, to diverting towards darkness instead of rise..? Never...Actually we all are fights & tries to get whatever we must have in our rights being a part of Democratic country.
Secondly,if you connects it with our pride of nation,national heroes then you may misunderstood to remember that their sacrifices are never get enough complements to dedicate our respect & gratitude for them.Even they wants to fight to get rights for being equal not for developing personal Cast & religion.
In Short, these all can only get shape when we people permits it.These all are not only a sign of our mentality but it's even a showcase of one's state of mind where he or she only can be limited to Think in fixed mentality where you can see only whatever your minds allows you beyond thinking may snatch your free capacity of thinking.
My point that specially being a part of the same cast who is trying to  show their great men's dedication & some rituals to connect the significant glory of one's religious aspects wants to say that if you are living & loving or have at leat some feelings towards your own self then also you can be a part of such efforts to continue & lasts the values & morals of great personalities who not only for individuals but also to connect all in a same line from where can only Learn to be equal instead of to depart for personal benefits.
The title stands to get answer & i would say that it's not for any personal benefit or for show offs but it's purely for to suggests a leading person who is a major part behind these issue makings that just look at your own benefits in your personal life to earnings & get fame but just stay away from one's morals & rituals that are truly & nearly connects with emotions & heritage to direct further generations,a gift to follow & forward for better rising days so don't tries to divert & use it for yourself benefit because History itself even an evidence to show one's self so don't tries to reflect through such Acts.
People can't digest truth & then only they raise questions same here today's article works with the same idea but my question is for you that if you are arguing to stop showing racism then why can't you expect this from the person who are in the base of the issue,who actually creates & births these entire situation & spreads or forces other to speak & act for that.at that time where is your perception to see the reality when one is standing to save his fore father's sacrifices & one is there to get personal Benefits through these only...!!!
Online movie itself shows how person's minds are works to prove indirectly that where & how they are where any matter take places surrounding them to support morality & greatness to carry further & they themselves enjoys such movies & acts of that for enjoyment & self personality showcase of mental perceptions & limitations.
At the end,I would like to say that don't just tries to be on your level but tries to go inside till the deepness as well as beyond the level where person's greatness & dedication remains higher than one's intention to get personal benefits by using one's morals & way of livings.Thank You...!!!

Poetry Can Change Us...!!!

Hello Everyone,

After Long.....time I have very interesting work to do & all i am going to share today is completely attracts me & connects with that particular point.

My personal intention to select present video of #Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah 's First November, 2017's episode is basically leads me towards it,where it shows the importance of writing & especially Poetry.

How a poetry can changed the mind & heart of a man though who had some compulsions or circumstances & that's why he stolen but yet a poetry that he found can leads him to a right direction & he returned that thing to right person & saved himself from such mean work.

My point is that how a simple poetry can works that has such capacities & power to change & serves something meaningfully.

As we know that Words has no own meanings,we give meanings to them.Really such meanings only can suggests us right path or actual way to move further.

Truly Poetry has everything to presents us in a very short form & limited words including some impacts.

At last, by referring the significance of poetry i also like to share some lines here with all.

Happy to know the importance of poetry in a very light way through an episode.
Thanks #Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah for entertaining & guides us by such shows.

Hope you will you enjoy my new shared lines.

Thank You...!!!😊😊😊

Expectations Expires,
Then why I expects..?
Feelings Fools,
Then why I feels..?
Cares Condemns,
Then why I Cares.
Trust Tests,
Then why I trusts..?
Whatever it is...
It all I accept,
Because...Life Loves...!!!😊😘😊

Guru Purnima Special...

Five Austerity of Teaching Work in Twenty First Century:-

Happy Guru Purnima To All My Teachers & Professors..!!!

Hello Everyone,
After long time I got an article that is related to my field & subject of interest. Last Sunday's Saurashtra Samachar's Magazine on Date 02 July,2017 has a good article under the column 'Manas Darshan' by Morari Bapu.
In this article that i attached,Bapu in detail expressed his ideas regarding teaching & it's main-significant functions that is quite necessary in this present time to improve it's quality.On Guru Purnima we mostly shares our Thanksgiving to our Teachers & elders who teaches something valuable to us & such articles supports our thinking towards it in a better way.
According to Morari Bapu there are five Austerity of Teaching now a days...
1)It should not be a means of earning but it should have capacity that leads us to get inner earnings.
2)Be responsible for your own work instead of blaming others for that.
3)Try to make students capable that can provide them enough understanding within their own capacities.
4) Teachers should be connected with teaching until the end of the life.
5)Teaching should be reach to the core of the society without any prejudice & mentality.

With meaningful examples Bapu shared his views on the same.being a part of this teaching field he has some deep understandings on it.it even shows that how teaching is & how it should be.ultimately it mirrors today's teaching that is necessary to change according to mentioned Five Austerities.
What is harsh reality of our today's teaching system..?
Why such steps are suggests to adopt for better teaching process..?
Which necessities are requires to give students a better-meaningful future..?
Such questions are before us today & reading of such learnable articles can provides & helps at least to think on some directions that makes our systems of teaching better than now.But only reading will even not work it will work if we tries to adopt something from this.
With this it also compares systems of teaching that was dealt by Gurus & today's teachers. How their efforts & today's practices are sounds that is interesting to see & judge with it's possible outcomes. Why learning of that time & now's differs to each other in the matter of learning in Classrooms & Out of that as it has ultimate goal to provide something that can be helpful for life living than remain limited within four walls only.
In short, it has well explained dialogue & examples to look at & self judged ourselves by put into a row of teaching.it has itself a clear image to attends that shows such great personalities's dedication towards such fields that are really a pillars to build Society Strong & Ever Lasted.
Thanks to Morari Bapu & such other personalities that always are ready to serves us by their sources of incredible,endless knowledge & experiences.

Happy Guru Purnima to All My Honourable Teachers & Elders.
Thanks Again....!!!

Response on The Sense Of Ending:-

For Sarah it means because of Tony she got handsome young boy who in love with her and that’s why she sent money to him which is blood money for Veronica. She may felt guilty of Adrian’s suicide and she wants to blame Tony or wants to regret for that and so she sent him.  Veronica thinks that because of Tony Adrian would have relation with her mother. If Tony had not sent letter to Adrian or informed him that if you are not believe in me than ask her own mother who will inform you. And Adrian may go to ask her and since there their relation would have started and she became pregnant and that’s why intellectual Adrian had suicide. It means Tony played feelings of people and which lead to the destruction of some character’s life like Veronica, Sarah, baby, Adrian so it is blood money.

Earlier Adrian had good relation with Veronica. But once time he wrote letter to Tony about their (Veronica and Adrian) relationship. It is the wish of Veronica that he should writes letter to Tony. But it is the fault of them. Tony feels jealous of their relation wrote one letter to Adrian about Mrs. Sarah Ford. It is the loose stone of this novel and because of this Adrian meets Sarah and then all things started. But then Adrian feels shame because it is not the healthy relationship and he commits suicide.

Tony is unreliable narrator but it doesn’t mean the story is fake or without intellectuality. He explain the thing at the age 60 than how can possible for an old man to remember or recall his younger days as usual. He tries to connect the dot with his new ideas which he has experienced. I think Tony is classified as Unreliable Narrator because he remembers such things which had happen with him and at the end that all cleared by himself so.

Thank You.

How Literature Shapes Me...?

What Is Literature..?
Why We Studying It..?
What Is The Purpose Behind Studying It..?
Such & many more like these questions always raises in our mind & especially when we are from the same field then it will matters more. To define Literature we should have that much type of understanding & depth then even we can just be able to get the glimpse of that which itself can't be enough to understand the significance of it.
Literature according to me,
From my Graduation if i tries to observe Literature then to be frank i would say that there is no deep or serious concern in my mind releted to Literature as i was not more deep in it. Apart from general concept i never during my Graduation tried to go beyond where contextual reading or resources are necessary along with that & after that when I joined my Master Degree & the change i feels is matters for me in real sense where actual means of Literature comes before me.
As a student of Literature & specially when I am interesting to practice of writing Poetry,i become too glad & surprise to see the importance of Literature in comparison to my understanding of that before joined Master Degree.
Literature Can Creates New Things.it signs that it can give us scope to be creative. Reading Text & judging it should not be our aim of dealing with this but to think from that only & makes something new for us is remain fruitful. Literature gives directions to open up our horizon & build something on that base to make ourselves developed & personally i would say that i only can starts my journey of practicing poetry when i starts to think with some significance for that.
Multiple ways of looking towards particular thing is in the center here which itself suggests to see & observe any thing with different sights.if we try to see with the concerns of language learning through this then also we can say that development of vocabulary, grip on grammar items & increasing the level of exact pronunciations can be possible here.it breaks our narrowness in general sense even which points out the factor of reality based Literature reading & provides us the knowledge of actual world & situations related to this.
In short, i would say by my personal experience that Literature has power to make men creative or at least think something on that direction & such creativity leads to critical thinking that actually Literature conduct to serve.

Read Literature, Think Literature & Create Literature.

Thank You.

Interpretation on Harry Potter:-

Harry Potter by J.K.Rowling has various interpretations to discuss.being a novel of children literature as well as having elements of magical power along with imaginative descriptions it has scope to judge & illustrate with different angels.here i am sharing some of them in brief:-

1)As a Children Novel:-
Though it has serious tone in center to highlight the fight between Harry & Voldemort yet it has at some point light narration of magical elements. Through these aspects Rowling can depicted the image of children world along with the central attention of struggle of Harry. It's imaginative concerns shows that how Rowling can presents two sided images together intentionally to give touch of relief to reader as well.

2)Feminist reading of the novel:-
Along with the fight of Harry & Voldemort Rowling very well gives space to the female identity. Harry's mother who sacrificed her life to give safety to the life of her son, Harry & on the other side Harry's female friend's support to be with him throughout the struggle & by using her genius mind she can be there as a true partner to solve the queries against Voldemort.here we can see the significance of female personalities in between the central part narrative technique.

3)Power & politics in Harry Potter:-
Voldemort's reaction for the Others can support my argument to show the element of power & politics. His treat for the Hogwarts school's children & harsh reaction towards kind pupils itself shows it well. The condition that they have to face is a sign of cruel mindset or mean mentality of Voldemort to be immortal or powerful by intention.in short it shows the suppressed condition of poor, powerless people who remains unworthy before such power politics.

Thank You.

Differentiate Truth & Post Truth

Respected Sir,
Here is my response of above mentioned task:-
First i would start with differentiate Truth & Post Truth:-Truth stands for facts & reality while Post Truth stands for incredible yet accepted truth.
Mainly post truth works in political parties where such artificial truths are uses to deal with each other.no doubt except that also there are some fields or in our rutine also we practices it but mostly it's can see in politics.sometimes values or rules are applied forcefully on us or sometimes it's depend upon us too to follow but it's ultimately has no life to move furthur with some good impacts & actully it's decrese the charm or significance of real truth.
Truth is general while post truth deals accordingly.for example:-In politics we can see that how one party behaves with another & how it's all come into existance that matters behind all.now a days except BJP there are no such significance of another political leaders that shows that how our ways of thinking,post truth works there.our mindset that constructs accordingly that except this no any party give us bright future & though present one has also weaknesses yet it's hide behind our thinking on others & today remaining parties are also becomes less active & conscious about us & ruling one can easily gets benefits of that.it's only happen due to our prejudice or constructed mindset towards that & under such artificial truths we have to come across some hardships too because after all it's against truth.
Thank You.

Post-truth: The Word of the Year 2016

Intercultural Communication by Claire Kramsch

Hello Everyone,
Here is my interpretation on the research work by Claire Kramsch on Intercultural Communication:-
Introduction:-
Intercultural or Cross cultural communication is an interdisciplinary field of research that studies how people understand each other across group boundaries of various sorts.
Background:-
The term intercultural communication became prominent in TESOL only in 1980s,as the necessary supplement to communicative language teaching that first developed in Europe in the early 1970s.
Hall gave rise to simulation games,studies of critical incidents where miscommunication occurred.the field of intercultural communication grew out of the practical, competitive needs of the post second World War.in Europe it was a direct outcome of the social & political upheavals created by the large scale immigration into the industrialized countries.
The major facets of human interaction that intercultural communication has helped to define are:-
The situation of communication itself
The stereotypes they entertain of each other
Their non verbal & para verbal behaviour
The way they save their own & each other's face
The way they structure their discourse to meet their communicative goals
The attitudes,values & beliefs they share with others
The way their language reflects deeper discourses
The way members of various group realise different speech acts
Research:-
There was major concerns in it to help FSI(foreign services institutions) officers to interact with people in the foreign countries to which they were dispatched.
Hall's concept of High context communication was there.
Many intercultural researchers were influenced by work in cross cultural psychology. (Segall:1979)
Linguistics entered the field with Kaplan's (1966) contrastive study of the various rhetorical patterns found in the writing of ESL learners.
The Scollon focus on the professional discourse between Americans & East Asian.
Intercultural communication moves into a critical examination systems of thought.
Practice:-
English teachers aware of the cultural dimension of language as social interaction.
One has to know how to say,what to,whom to,at the right time in the right place along with grammar.
Teaching intercultural communication in a TESOL class has been pretty much a one way street.
Current & future trends & directions:-
Intercultural communication in the US has traditionally been a relatively apolitical field of research, grounded primarily in psychology & the behavioral sciences.
The rise of cultural studies & critical pedagogy has brought issues of conflict, power & control within the scope of intercultural communication as a field of reason.
Intercultural communication will have to deal with shifting identities & cross cultural nnetworks rather than with autonomous individuals located in the stable & homogeneous national cultures.
For the English teacher, new directions include looking at the social & historical conditions of teaching intercultural communication through English.
Thank You.

Existentialism: Video Resources

Respected Sir,
Here below is my interpretation on above mentioned videos & my preference on one out of all & also something about some special benefits that I gain after practicing Flipped Learning:-
Video 1:-
Existentialism:-It mainly popular among young generation where some emotions are easily & highly comes in light. Basically it concerns with individual than community.Our choices makes us individual. Our belief & desires gives us identity as individual.
Video 2:-
The myth of Sisyphus:-Our thinking is the base of every situation from where Absurdity started in life.It talks on lack of profound or prolific reason of living & it turns to an individual act may be Suicide. Reference from movie Stay also has such same ideas.(An elegant suicide is the ultimate work of art.)
Video 3:-
Philosophical Suicide:-Absurdity is not in man nor in the world but it's in the both's presence.if there is no Human Being then there is no desire then there is no satisfaction & ultimately then there is no philosophical Suicide. Before facing any problems one should know possible challenge as well as solution instead of facing it directly.Religion believes that there is some reason beyond all but in actual sense there is nothing reasons are useless.
Video 4:-
Dadaism & Existentialism:-It focus on becoming free from everything. A quest for change matters here.it's not content any values & if any then it will definitely against of existed values itself. One should not follow the values that exists by other. Question values rather than create it. Being an odd movement it concerns with making own rules as well.
Video 5:-
Existentialism & Gloomy Philosophy:-Our notions like anxity,despair & absurdity forces to argue on solution of life.Believing in God or truth that is true to us or being absurd has the support of our own judgement. After all we as a human being judge every values & meaning of life.individual doesn't mean you are divert yourself. Existentialism responds emptiness of absurdity & despair.after world war life filled with despair & it becomes meaningless there Die or think on who you are is remains question.
Video 6:-
Existentialism & Nihilism:-These both are differ from each other.it's against that leads far us from living life fashionably & appreciated.against actually from Christianity.the notion of a beyond is the death of life itself. Existentialism is opposed to Nihilism. After existentialism's thinking Nihilism comes. Path of seeing may be the same but way of thinking differs.
Video 7:-
Existentialism:-Gabriel Marcel started to work on it. We individual are responsible for creating meaning in our life.ultimately we all are living in chaotic & meaningless universe. Father of existentialism Kierkegaard talks on the crises of human existence.our desires can filled by chance & faith & believing in existentialism emphasis on it.
Video 8:-
Introduction to Existentialism:-What existentialism is not..? It's not a philosophical system.it best viewed as a movement.it concerns with life that Human beings are living.it rejects the system which proposes to have definitive answers to the question of meaning & purpose in life.it's not purely divine perspective for human but it's a perspective of human being.
Existence proceeds Essence:-Like Aristotle every substance or things has as essence.acting in full accordance with reason has essence of human nature.those who see humans as being designed by a God also hold that our essence proceeds existence.
Existentialism vs Nihilism:-In existentialism one can create their own personal or subjective meaning while in Nihilism there is no personal or subjective meaning.overcoming Nihilism does not depict on individual but to create meaning, values & purpose for one's self.
Video 9:-
Existentialism & Friedrich Nietzsche:-We can make our own rules.making of rules is basically highlighted here.Ubermenschen Superhero of Nietzsche serves our wills & desires.individual is remains in the center.
After watching all videos i would like to give my preference to two videos out of them.
Very first video gives brief but yet helpful ideas of Existentialism.as it has no value except our wills.life has no meaning until it can't lived. Feedbacks of lived once signifies here.
Choice-Freedom-Responsibilty=Individual.
Existentialism comes as Optimistic.
Video 4 has also according to me some glimpse that can clear the ideas between two term such as Dadaism & Existentialism.Existentialism emerged after world war 2 & it can be compared with Dadaism movement.itmainly question the exists values & does not follow it.instead of following values of others one should think to make their own.
At last i would say something about the way of learning through such impressive as well as suggestive teaching process.Flipped Learning is an experimental key to learn.To organize & present content may be simple but it will be more prominent that can inspire to focus on particular content deeply. Flipped Learning is the best specimen to practice here.instead of traditional teaching here something new is attempting that's call Flipped Learning.
Through group discussion & interaction we may not be attentive while learning but individually if we try to learn it will be beneficial to us as it has creativity in subject matters.if i talk about present task then i would say that after practicing such flipped learning i can be enough clear for the concept of Existentialism & how some particular terms can also be compared with it.with some more clarification & easy way i can unfederated the concept after being a part of Flipped Classroom Learning.
Thank You.

'Waiting For Godot':-

Respected Sir,Here is my interpretation on the movie screening of 'Waiting For Godot':-
1)A country road, Tree & Evening (Setting):-Samuel Blackett's the present play 'Waiting for Godot' intentionally focus on the setting part where country road,tree & evening are symbolizes well.painting 'Longing' has such significance to present here something. With some slight changes it can pounder on the past incidents too where World War 2 is images deliberately or indirectly can see through garbage or unconstructed things.evening falls by rising of moon even signifies the hope of Godot's coming & tree has equal significance to depicts something there.
2)Importance of Tree:-With the two sides of perspective it can be pointed out. First positive side, where barren tree of very initial act become growing in the second one that may shows the sign of Godot's coming, it may be the sign of hope.another side if we try to see then it has no such connection at all.as it's can considered natural rule of the nature & it has nothing beyond there too.another interpretation of some newly growing leaves can be as the sign of better condition of human beings after time passes though they are victimized from War.
3)Coming of night & moon:-Here fall of evening & rise of moon clearly signs towards the darkness of life.in both the act this scene is depicted & it pointed out somehow the end of both the character.after meaningless waiting they ultimately goes nearer to the end. Sunset itself shows the ending of light & beginning of darkness.
4)Debris in the setting:-Unconstructed properties that we can find spreads there is a sign of World War 2 where such damage was happen & from there may be it can try to connect with the barrenness of Vladimir & Estragon that they have in their life & to be free from that may be they are in wait for the Godot.
5)'Nothing to be done':-Nothingness is the central idea of the play where characters are immensely waiting for Godot but in actual sense it's quite worthless.no means of their end(purpose),it's endless as well as hopeless.throughout the play,they communicate & act with some pause but it's all seems meaningless at the end where we come to know that ultimate waiting is worthless.it has nothing to filled & they still waiting is the sign of nothingness itself.
6)'Waiting for Godot' as a positive play:-Life goes on,no matter what we are gaining or losing.same here,in this play we can see that nothing happens,nobody comes,nobody seen yet Vladimir & Estragon have some hope for Godot that one day Godot will come.even with some Bibical refrence of 'One Day' shows the positive side of the play where hope remains till the end & they continuos it through waiting only.even suicide they don't do & by "Let's Go" the play ends that shows the desire to fight till the end by waiting for Godot.
7)Props(Hat & Boots):-Beginning of the play by this two props shows the connection between the intention of the writer & message that it passes.Hat on the head shows the intelactuality of the person & Boots shows the physical power that they have yet it at some point question the mentality as well as physical strength when they react uncertainly & changing Hat may signs it well,another is when pain on the leg they feel it shows the suffer of life.
8)Lucky's irritating behaviour:-Sometimes we can get chance to be free from some constructions yet we can't grab the opportunities bacause we are habituated with that construction of mind already,it can't permit us to think beyond.Lucky knows well that his master has no power to see anything yet he don't go away from him & serving him as before that question the real meaning of freedom which such character misinterpretes that by serving masters they get enjoynment & do not think for self even.this can call stupidity than loyalty that question why they can't think to get rid of & it matters here.
9)Who is Godot..?:-Godot as God:-Ending of suffer can connect it,that can be possible by God only.no significance of human being remains or matters there.Godot as Desire,Ambition or Goal:-Waiting till the end shows the crave to reach towards the final destination that is goal to see & meet Godot,to be free from problems & having good life many desired there it in a means of Godot.Godot as Death:-It shows the ultimate journey of the life where waiting may end & itself turns with the sign of death.Moon supports this idea well in it.
10)Waiting as the subject of the play instead of Godot:-Changing hat,wearing boots,doing exersice,glimpse on nature,tries to hang out & such other uncertain & at some point funny activities repeatedly doing by the character that is all about waiting,passing the time to see & meet the Godot.no doubt they waiting for godot but their waiting itself lasts till the end & even may continuos & it shows the attraction as well as crave for Godot ultimately that is the person who is completely unknown to them yet immense wait of their matters a lot here.from there it can highlighted there the ultimate destination of them for Godot.direction matters than the destination.
11)Can such plays can be read than viewed:-Definately,it can be read better than viewed.such plays have some limitations in the matter of dialogues & setting where being a audience we wants or requires some space to think deeply at a time or some connection with the space we wants to get actually accordingly.but with some drawbacks of such plays in the sense of audio visuality we can see that how much misinterpretation or irritation we may suffer there.so it can't fill the requirements of us & that's why seems something absence there to connect exactly.
12)Sequence of the play that i likes the most:-Vladimir-Estragon killing time in question & conversation while waiting:-It mainly focus on the actuality of life where communication matters a lot to continue as well as moves the life ahead & conversation between they both has such significance to display where how we are looking actually in the form of them & whatever they acts is also similar to us that we regularly feels throughout the life. Though they are waiting meaninglessly can represents us.by their talk & walk towards the path of Godot by killing time how we purchases moments can also read here yet we are used to.
13)Meaninglessness of human existence in the irrational & indifference universe:-If we come to know that whatever we suffer,whatever we struggle turns to meaningless act then what happens to us..?can't we think to modify it..?no,may be it's not in our hand to control. That's why repentance of both the character can shows there.delay of Godot they considered & connect with the punishment of God & it ultimately shows the meaninglessness of their waiting similarly we are also have thinking to possess. Instead of enjoining the movements we mostly waste it by doing & passing time in stupid things that has no actual life ever to carry further so present has such significant role than the ultimate destination.
14)Idea of Hanging:Hanging may be the way of solution to get rid from suffer & problems but it's never can give justice to us & same way Vladimir & Estragon think on it & they postponed the idea of hanging themselves & it's shows the hidden fear of God.rather praying or serving why we fearing from the God that may question here.afraid from the God instead of loving him.yet it shows the challenge to be live not die.
15)Political reading of the play:-Master-Slave relationship & selection of names can be read with the political angle. When Irishman make fun of Englishman by pronouncing the word 'Clam' may also pointed here with the same context. Yet to convey history & relate further community with it one should have wider vision to carry but Pozzo's blindness may drop it at some point. I think on the other hand Vladimir & Estragon many a time in between tries to pounder on the past that shows it diffrently.(Scene of saving Estragon by Vladimir during the incident of falling into the river.)
16)Beckett meant Pozzo to be Englishman & Lucky to be Irishman:-Being a writer one can use his personal refrences & reaction through the work to pointed something new & same here Samuel Beckett also tries to depict the idea of Irishman & Englishman.it can be read as the mentality of the writer towards such community.where one suffer under the rules of powerman & it brings through Pozzo & Lucky.fun on Englishman & satire through some scene can be read with the intension of the writer here.


Thank You.

Worksheet: Screening Movie Waiting for Godot

The Birthday Party

Resected Sir,
Here below is my interpretation on the movie screening 'The Birthday Party'..
1)Two scenes of Lulu omitted from the movie:-
Two scenes of Lulu if omitted from the movie then it normally has no such differences that one can find there.to give the particular shape to the work also writer may be prefer to include extra things & reduce something that burden the content part of the work.another point can be there is as i think of Lulu's personality that has no such significance to carry out the flow further with some special effect.
As Anton Chekhov told something can relates here that if starting part is points out on The Gun on the wall then it should be blast or resulted till the end anyhow.
It means no single word should be there that may disturb the work of art.it can be connect here where repetition omitted intentionally may be or meaningless act may keeps away from the central focus.
2)The effect of Menace in the movie:-
Brief on Menace:-Threats, Dangerous or Frightened
'The Birthday Party' by Harold Pinter has such fearful elements to conveys the central idea or concept of the work.audiovisual technique has some particular significance than the written work to attract or catch the attention of the audiences & it's can also lasts our interest till the end.one can imagine the sight while reading the text but he can closely feel it while watching the film version of that.there are so many scenes one can find with better effect to connect the dots & his personal interest with the work through the movie screening than the mere reading of the text.
Such as:-Tearing the newspaper,
Beating the drums,
Knocking the door,
Screaming of Lulu & Meg during become physically victimizers.
Rattling the crockery in the kitchen
These all at some point can be successful to give the impact of Menaces & that can be very much feel by the audience too.apart from these types of audio images some visual effect can be considered with the same.
When darkness is shows there.
Early morning & symbol of street light are there yet hidden darkness (physical attack on Meg & Lulu & Stanley from strangers, Political atmosphere between the characters) that deliberately tries to pointed out there is mattes a lot.
3)The effect of lurking danger while viewing the movie:-
As i mentioned in above answer that visual effect can be more eye catchy in the movie screening in compare to the reading the text.same as from very starting of the screening we can see that how beautifully the director used his technique to portrays the decided impulses on the minds of audience through the unknown man's entering scene & sounds of some things. Without pre-information it may hard to identity who that man is..?yet it definitely has something that makes us ready to think on it once.it can shows us lurking danger too.
The game of Blind Man's Buff can be mentioned with the same.when women has to be victimized of men that can be hard to read in the text.
4)My reading of the Newspaper scene in the movie:-
The scene of Newspaper can be read differently in the matter of different characters.
Such as:-Petey an old man reading newspaper is quite differs from the way of McCann's reading of the same.
It can be symbolises differently:-Power position
Hiding the self identity behind
Particular context reading like the present work
News event from that newspaper which Petey was read has some impact to leave behind. Where the issue of Baby child arises & Meg argued with Petey & also question on that as he was not be able to filled her that wish after a long time too.
So it's may comes as helplessness of Petey.
Newspaper tearing by McCann may sounds differ here.when he do this it shows the real situation of Stanley by him (McCann) where he himself parted significantly.sounds also support there.
Hiding the tearing pieces of paper by Petey in last scene may shows us the another sign of his helplessness where he may tries to hide the harsh reality of Stanley that he can't advocate as well as prove & Meg's memory power also has no such strength that can support him so it's another point to deal with.
5)Positioning of Camera while The Blind Man's Buff,the game was playing:-
Very sharply the director used this technique of putting camera angels into particular situation. Where in the game of The Blind Man's Buff,during the celebraton of Stanley's birthday McCann very freely tries to catch someone while during the turn of Stanley he act as he tries to free himself first it shows the suppressed condition of him.there camera also moves accordingly.in some other situations when McCann searches,it moves on his condition with the capture of surroundings & it turns to above when it's pointed out Stanley's turn in the game that seems as the cage in which he is trapped.
Another supportive things comes as drums when camera moves there it's broken by Stanley that may refer to his actual depressed condition as an artist.limitations of any artists can be shows here too.characters are not in covered eyes there but it's may camera that tries to shows us it through itself.
6)Reference of Art,Truth & Politics in the movie:-
Yes,i definitely agree with this reference where in a very little stage it performs that may signs towards the kind condition of the characters. Openness is empty there,no serious thoughts can exchange there. Stanley's behavior or act of closing the windows may shows his helplessness of being a rant member of Meg & Petey so apart from this many dialogues are also there.
Some are trivial where confusion may arises from reader's side to favoured one of the character.but at the end how Stanley has to face undone situation & Meg & Petey being unaware from that can considered as known to Stanley but unknown to his condition.mercy is there but reading comes differ ultimately.
7)With some characteristics the movie give better understanding of the play:-
Painteresque,Pause, Silence, Menace & Lurking danger obviously these all techniques are very well connected here with the content of the play in the movie to give quite enough understanding to the audience that may not be possible to get while reading.
For that pause & silence we have to focus on camera angel first where each & every minute moves the director tries to cover & shows the exact area of the theme there.
Such techniques deliberately using by them to give enough justice to the audience as well as their work.in which audience can take time to pounder on particular static situation & can evaluate the art in a better way through that's point of view. Lurking danger can also shows through it in which particular situation tries to include & on that base it reflect the threat & fear at last.
8)I agree with the below observation:-
"It's impossible to imagine a better film of Pinter's play than this sensitive, disturbing version directed by William Friedkin."
As the present film has possible & required elements to reflect the techniques that may Pinter wanted to convey thorough his play. Lack of understanding if happen then it may depends on personal or individual perspective than general that can give the scope to make it better than this too.
9)If i can be a director or screenplay writer,for this movie if i say that i would prefer to change nothing special but there may be the requirement of justice at the end to Stanley at least. Defect of memory power of Meg should not be there & she should at least support Stanley there.
10)My choice of actor should be Stanley no doubt, as he has some quality of an artist though he has limitations yet it can be considered as a representative of that areas of our society who are victimization like him & how they have to suffer can also see & question & through such character who if remain in the center then can highlighted their position as well as the aim within them too.
Thank You.

The Da Vinci Code

Respected Sir,here is my interpretation on mentioned task:

This novel is not anti-Christian because Dane Brown has not said Christianity is fake or anything wrong but he just proved that the how thing s are going on the name of religion. He proves does it God which we believe? Or is it else?
I think it also doubt on other story that which one is real means it creates the confusion in the mind of people. How can we say it is an entertaining story because it ever creates the idea that Does God exist or not? Means it creates the chaotic situation between theist and atheist.

In “Da Vinci Code” Dane brown described the new order of living life as destroy the idea of such ritual which is done on the name of God. He may want to reveal the secret of Christianity so people can come out of illusion. How people are making criminal to those who do not believe on such rituals. There is secret in the narrative and may secret will damage the reality so Robert Legdone kept secret.In the biblical narration there is the constructed idea of God so human beings always remain in the box and if they try then fear mechanism work on them. It’s now become a business of people to earn fame or money. Bible also differentiated the relation of human beings as male and female even the works of both are different. It also says human beings have freedom don’t try to go against the rule of God which leads to detry self.

Ophelia and Elizabeth are harassed by their husband and they can’t raise their voice as they are living in such order of family. These both are escaping from the life. Hester Prynne is also not raised her voice but she has also not accept as she is a sinner. She faced problems and then she out casted. Harmione and Sophie seemed intellectual.
Majority are used as sexual object or showcase of male like Ophelia, Hester and Harmione. Sophie is genuine as only one kiss which is a formal thing for western world. All these characters have struggled in their life because of male.

Modern Literature-"Quality"(Short story)

Hello Everyone,
Here is something about Modern Literature where existence of Technology entered  & effect of that new change has experienced with the context of a Short Story written by John Galsworthy "Quality".
No one like to be ready for work from tired, bored sleep of last night & wake up in the morning. Only thought of get ready for work may makes people in a bad mood.rarely one can find someone who is differ from this & especially if I talk about this with addition to keeping in mind the modern time where everything is set up through machines & technology. No hard or real work people have to do in their fields like before.
Here is a short story on such figure who is a representation of that past where work demands hardship & real practice from workers. No particular machinery was used to make any items or things of routine use & present story's main character named Mr. Gessler had same habit to be dedicated towards the work.As a Shoe Maker he made what was ordered, never taking ready made shoes down from the shelf. He wanted each pair of boots to be a custom fit to each individual & for every pair he made,he used a pattern taken from the customer's foot size.
Dedication for work only resulted in a right manner when it done by some hardships,self interest & enough practice instead of only be supportive on new machinery that in an actual sense decrease the value of things as well as art. As Modern Literature also pointed out the same features.
In addition to that, when Mr.Galsworthy came to Mr. Gessler for ordered his shoes, as a integral shoe maker he noticed that Mr.Galsworthy had shoes that made by advertisement not by work that means it was ready made no hand work done on it.with the development of story we comes to know that how Mr.Gessler is forced to sacrifice half of his shop to a big business just because of his weak physical condition as Dr.Quoted that "The man died due to slow stravation."& his entire life's sacrifice for his work lead him towards a terrible stage of his life at the end.when machinery gets sound & voice of real art pressured under authority at some point such figures comes out with serious concern but hopeless recovery.Mass production take place of individual real handy arts & forced us to think on it as a participator of New Modern Era.

Thank You.

Religion For The Youth

Friends,here i am sharing my views on the speech of Mr.Shaktisinh Chudasma related "Religion for the youth".                                          Today i heard a very interesting speech of Mr.Shaktisinh Chudasma,that was on "Religion for the youth".in his speech there were so many interesting points that discussed but out of them,i would share my own views on some of them.first of all,he told that "What is religion?" and said that "Religion is a duty."when it become duty as i think is becomes a responsibility,its not remain only the things of worship GOD and matter of feeling or blind faith that we have in our so called religion,but it has something more than that.Now a days,we can see that how fake saints are there in our surroundings,here one thing i would like to focus that people says that these fakes are befoolishing us and they don't deserve to even live in this society because for them they are spoiled the society but now my question is for the people who argued,Who give place and chance them first? Who are the followers of them?Why they get chance to spoil us,the society?then there is only one answer there that there are we who worship them first,who support them first and after we are ready to argue against them....!How its possible?                                     So there are also some same points were shared by many other guests.But i am also at some point like to share my point with disagreement,as one thing said there that suggested to young boys,be loyal only for parents than your wife.and another was wife is only responsible reason for departing her husband from his parents,only after wife's behavior husband's decision take place of old age home for parents.so,my point is that no doubt,this is true that husband should be faithful to his parents because after all,he has some responsibility towards his family but its doesn't mean that he has just one side duty at all.after marriage he has to manage both side responsibility.then only family can be perfect in real sense.secondly,i would say that old age home is not a reason of wife's miss behavior but in a family i think there should be balanced situation.if circumstances are there then its alright,but even it's not then we can't say that one is only responsible for such serious matter.some particular reasons may be behind there.                             I would like to conclude my views with the discussed statement "Nation First".yes,it should be only after that we can be a real part of our developed country because after all "Religion is duty."

News Paper Article on Our Authority System:-

New posts available. Press L to load them.

Hello Everyone, Here below are my views regarding News Paper Article on Our Authority System:-
On 14th August, 2016,Sunday,There was an article in Gujarati News Paper Saurashtra Samachar by Bhadrayu Vachharajani under the sub title of Prashan Vishesh on very sensitive issue of the recent time that we can also consider as burning one-Corruption & it's possible as well as responsible factor.
Let's see some glimpse of his views on this article:-
"Is Government runs only for Corruption..?"
With the above mentioned statement or rather dialogue of movie "Madari" he leads us to the movie & shows us the image of harsh reality of our society.
If we have some desires that we can't fulfill due to some construction or limitations & we can pampered such desires by watching movies, play & such other medium of entertainment that please as well as teach something to us.
He started with discussion of two recently released movies of Bollywood:"Kabali' & " Madari".
Before few years,when we went to the movie we pleased because we enjoyed imaginative work only where everything that was shown was not happened in reality but it only remained within the movie.
But today time changes, whenever we are going to the movie, we back with some thought in our mind that comes at from our inner & pressed mentality towards some issues. We feel something there that also happens with us.
There are no difference now a days between Reel & Real particularly in movies. Sometimes depiction of movies shows as real as our life itself & one may be confuse or surprise to see the nearer similarity between the two.
Recently released two Bollywood movies sounds a lot & out of them "Kabali" presents the feeling of satisfaction that we save somewhere in our unconsious yet with a conscious hope & mostly wants to feel.on the other hand, second movie,"Madari" comes with similar tone.in this movie how corrupt authority be unfair with a poor, innocent boy & as a result how that same authority had to pay cost by confessing as a result of Victimized poor boy's family revenge against that issue.
It may proved the famous Gujarati proverb:-
"Muj viti Tuj vitse.."
How common man also can raise his voice against injustice. He also through lights on the question that we all must have in our mind at least.
If authority has some problem or issue to face then it definitely get wide responses in favour but if same issues or difficulties any common man has to suffer then obviously situation take turn completely.
From many years we can see how natural calamities damages human life,how human life & other precious properties get affects derogatory,how Government provided food under some scheme effect children's health due to some low-quality items, how Government provided textbooks sells in waste,how degrees are sells to students like property selling, how innocent child reaped & kidnapped..? & such many more burning issues are going in our surroundings & point out or catch our attention when no action we are referred or take a single step here against any of this. Even authority also don't give or show little concern for this & this only happens with common people, it's not be with any elites & in movie we can see that how a same common man attempted to fight against it.when a poor boy victimized of this corrupt authority who build a bridge that granted enough but yet authority members used their mean mentality there & used less money or funds to build it & filled own pocket instead of making bridge as planning with the matter of structure & economy.
A family member from that victimized boy tried to raise voice against it & he till the end fight too.with great efforts & feelings of revenge he remained strict to that forced authority to confess their crimes.
Conversion during confession centered the whole movie & forces us to give attention as well as be aware for that also. When corrupt one from authority stated that-"Corruption does not happened by Government or Authority but Government itself runs for Corruption.."
What a deep & think demanded scene that was..!
Within a second, in a single blink of eyes, it prevents a whole real image of our authority system & really it was relevant to the current time perfectly & confession may itself a feeling of pampered revenge at the end there.
This is a depiction of one single incident but what about others..?
When other get that same place & strength to raise voice against such authority system..?
From where they can get inspiration to stand against it..?
Is it possible to clean entirely such corrupt image of authority from our society..?
Even at least can anyone start to think on that direction or not..? that are required-possible questions to focus at all.
At last, I would say that it's all about corruption that increases speedily in our surroundings & common man have to suffer due to that & hardly countable voice get light between all this.
Movies are not only for entertainment it's also serves us to be aware & attentive towards social & other issues of the present time. When society plays a vital role of mirror to reflect the reality of that then movies are the best & relevant medium to use it as a weapon against such burning issues of the time.
Thanx to such prolific writers & critics that leads us to think on this & forces to voice against it wisely with sharpness.

Thank You.

Education System:School in forest

I think the above image shows reality of our education system that points out that how students being judge without knowing their abilities & disabilities at all.for example-popular literature is not real one as it's mainly deals with imagination & without depth & no serious elements of philosophy we can find in it.there always remains gape between intellectuality & imagination & it's ultimately narrowly resulted. Like our education system that can't be faithful to all & everyone is judging through the same measurement called examination.

Thank You.

Gabriel Okara’s “Were I to Choose”

Were I to choose

Gabriel Okara, a Nigerian poet, is immersed in folk-tradition and ballad. One can discern influences of native tradition and English romantic tradition and he often tries to create a synthesis between the two. He often utilizes ‘transliteration’ and thereby renders his poems regional, yet universal. His poems are often marked for their lyrical musicality.

Gabriel Okara’s “Were I to Choose” is reminiscent of Yeats’ “Adam’s Curse.” Adam toiling in the soil can be compared to the Negros working in the soil. They broke the stone themselves which was their very foundation. The red streams are symbolic of the multilingual diversity that reaches the womb Africa.

In this poem Gabriel Okara wants to free himself from the imprisonment of his dark ‘halo that is generally considered as ‘blessed; but seems dark to him. His conflict is not being able to choose from the different languages. He is torn between worlds. The poet likens his predicament with mingling with dust during the month December to February in Nigeria. The throat is dry and he is unable to speak out. He is delirious ass the flames of torture are burning his existence. The colonial period has made the poet an amalgam of European and African Cultures, and now he finds himself in a no man’s land. He relishes the idea of resolving the crisis by seeking refuge in the silence of the grave. He then would be cheating the worms because he would enjoy that state of affairs so these are the things which are discussed by Gabriel Okara in this poem.

The White Tiger

The White Tiger is at once a classic rags to riches story, a murder story, and a brutal critique of the inequalities in Indian society.

Balram, the 'white tiger' is born in the Darkness, the name given to poor, rural India. He works in a tea-shop, but has ambitions to raise himself out of poverty, and manages to get a job working as a chauffeur for a wealthy, corrupt businessman. He follows him to Delhi, where he lives in cramped and dirty servants quarters in the basement of his master's luxury apartment block.

Incensed by this, and the stark inequalities he lives with, and the precariousness of his own position, he plots a way out of this world where an innocent man can jailed for a crime he did not commit to save his master's skin. He murders him, and escapes to Bangalore with his money, where he is able to start a new life as the owner of a taxi company, employing many others. He has come out of the Darkness, and into the light.
