Infinity Thinking

A class that Changed me. I had never imagined that a boring 1-hour English Proficiency class would lead me to dig deeper into the subject matter that I'd been ignoring my whole life – "Mental Health." I was in my class of EPCC (English Proficiency Certificate Course), and that day was dedicated to a discussion on an episode of "Satyamev Jayate" about 'Mental Health'. Before that day, I had never paid much interest to topics such as mental health or mental illness. The episode was super insightful and made me rethink my beliefs about mental health. A story of real people sharing their own experiences, haunted by opinions, stereotypes & stigma. All thanks to the show "Satyamev Jayate" that forced me to learn more about mental health. I wish there were more shows like that so more people would become aware of topics that Indians had made taboo. And that sparked the curiosity in me and I've started to read several things on mental health. T...

Humans created language, and now they fight over it. They created electricity, and now they pay electricity bills. They invented money, and now they work endlessly for monthly paychecks. Humans have even fought over what was created by God—religion, land, and water. They developed AI, and now they’re being replaced by it. They once chose leaders—rulers, political heads—and now those leaders rule over their lives. There are countless things humans have created for which they shouldn’t be proud. I feel ashamed to be part of this race called “human,” even though my sins are no less than theirs. Sometimes I wonder—if an extraterrestrial ever understood the true nature of humans, would they take the word "human" as an insult? In this constantly evolving world, "humanity" seems to be fading away from each one of us as time escalates. The world was once believed to be flat. Then it was discovered to be round. In the future, it might just become a grave. Day by day, this pl...

Back in 2020, when I had just begun reading and continued speed-reading for six months, after finishing, I soon realized that the content of basic non-fiction books was almost the same. They all tried to motivate the reader to read more books. Every author seemed to write the same thing but in a different way, and that didn’t feel right from the perspective of having new ideas. Because at the end of the day, if you are thinking at the same intensity as all other readers, what difference does it make to the world? To have original thoughts means to be curious. In today's world, this idea is more relevant than ever, especially in the age of the internet, where your brain is overloaded with information, text, and different forms of content—something I believe is enough to rot your brain. Isn't it sound weird ? Because most of our lives now revolve around the internet. We can't go back to the Stone Age either. The internet is a graveyard of information that presents the same kn...

  "Oh Captain, My Captain" —this is my most favorite line from the movie I'm about to discuss. On November 4th, 2024, at 9 p.m., I finished watching this film, and the ending left me truly heartbroken. It’s unlike anything I've ever watched as a viewer who pay special attention to the characters. This movie is about writers, or more specifically, poets, and it explores themes such as poetry, literature, adulthood, friendship, the relationship between teachers and students, dreams, passion, and love. The story revolves around an English teacher named John Keating, portrayed by Robin Williams, and his two students, Neil Perry and Todd Anderson, at the prestigious Welton Academy. Let me tell you more about Robin Williams' character, Mr. Keating. Once a popular figure at Welton himself, he later returned as a teacher. His character is kind, loving, charismatic, and sarcastic, yet incredibly impactful. Keating views the world through the lens of a writer, poet, and phi...

Introduction Education is a universal concept that has been known to humanity since ancient times and continues to evolve every year. In philosophy, it has a rich history, with some of the greatest thinkers offering their perspectives on education, such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and Alexander the Great. In this article, we will discuss the philosophical aspects of education and the ideas of some famous philosophers. Let’s get started. By definition,— education can be considered as the teaching and learning of specific skills, aimed at becoming knowledgeable, having sound judgment, and gaining wisdom. More precisely, it is more than the institutional education we often speak of. For instance, the rise of online platforms like Coursera, Khan Academy, and PW. reflects How education today is more accessible and personalized, allowing people to learn specific skills that go beyond traditional schooling. Many educationalists consider the—"Practical Application" of education we...
