বিঃ দ্রঃ শুরুতেই বলে রাখা ভাল, সম্প্রতি আমার এক বোনের মৃত্যু আমাকে এ লেখাতে উদবুদ্ধ করেছে। আর ইংরেজিতে না লিখে বাংলায় লিখছি কারণ আমি চাইনা আমার গবেষণাধর্মী লেখার সাথে এটাকে মিলিয়ে ফেলে অবাঙ্গালীরা আমার গবেষণাকে ভুল বুঝুন, তবে কেউ ট্রান্সলেট করে পড়লে কোন আপত্তি নেই, লুকানোর কিছু নেই এতে। খুব ছোট বেলা থেকেই আমি মৃত্যুকে … Continue reading আমার বিশ্বাস, আমার জীবন, আমার মৃত্যু
Diamonds Beyond the Track
A reflection on attraction, contentment, and staying on our chosen path Life offers us countless attractions. Some are beautiful, some valuable, and some genuinely exciting. But does everything attractive deserve our attention or pursuit? Imagine finding an excellent pair of shoes at a low price. You already have enough shoes and do not need another … Continue reading Diamonds Beyond the Track
The Red Room
Ian is three and a half years old. The room he is in looks red. Not bright red. A dark, tired red—the kind that comes when a weak light burns somewhere beyond the room and reaches the walls only after passing through a curtain. Ian cannot tell where the light comes from. He cannot even … Continue reading The Red Room
One Anti-Stress a Day
Stress is part of life. In the right amount, and at the right time, it can protect us, motivate us, and prepare us to deal with danger. But stress becomes harmful when it continues long after the danger has passed, when it is repeatedly triggered by memories, or when our mind and body remain on … Continue reading One Anti-Stress a Day
Set Yourself Free

Perhaps one way of making life a little easier is to identify those unnecessary burdens and gradually set ourselves free from them. Think about annoyance, anger, … Continue reading Set Yourself Free
Beyond Life, or Beyond the Body?
Near-death experiences are often discussed as though they offer a glimpse of what happens after death. A person’s body reaches a critical state, normal physical functions appear to cease, and yet the person later reports vivid experiences—sometimes involving a sense of leaving the body, observing events from elsewhere, encountering light, or entering an unfamiliar state … Continue reading Beyond Life, or Beyond the Body?

Does Time Flow, or Do We Flow Through Time?
A philosophical reflection from a conversation We often say, almost without thinking, that time passes by. But what if that is not what is really happening? What if time itself does not flow at all? What if, instead, we are the ones moving through time, much as we move through physical space? This simple question … Continue reading Does Time Flow, or Do We Flow Through Time?
Opening Up in Small Ways
We often think that protecting ourselves means becoming more guarded. But remaining constantly defensive requires serious emotional and physical energy. It is like a country maintaining an army. Even when there is no war, keeping the army on continuous high alert consumes enormous resources. An army is necessary, just as personal boundaries and self-protection are … Continue reading Opening Up in Small Ways
Your Shield – Your Superpower
When someone hurts us—often without intending to—we naturally want to do something that will make us feel better. We may react immediately, assume bad intentions, retaliate, argue repeatedly, try to change the person, wait for an apology, replay the incident, take it personally, suppress our feelings, or become suspicious of everyone. These responses are understandable … Continue reading Your Shield – Your Superpower
