There is always…a constraint, a conflict within ourselves between what we are and what we wanna be. Infact reality is like driving in KOTI circle. Vehicles come from every direction, every single vehicle can be a potential risk. But accidents are to be avoided to reach where we need to reach. There will be threats/constraints which we need to tackle surpass them and reach our destination. Many thinkers have re-iterated this phenomenon. It is a heavy thing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;But the luxury with human mind is, to be free of all these….DREAMS…the land which knows no limits.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Dreams are a powerful phenomenon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;[DAY]Dreams know no constraints. You want it…you can see it. I first came to know about this mantra through “Mungerilal ke haseen Sapne” that was telecast arround 16-17 years back on TV [DD channel], when I was a kid.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;…That was the first motivation ‘Dreams’&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;…&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;my dreams&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Now the second….one…India&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;All the successful civilizations have prospered in art, science etc. only after their basic needs food and shelter are met. India too will prosper if their basic needs of masses are met. People call Indians ‘Sentimental fools’. Irrespective&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;of what connotation it has…I believe is ‘emotion’ …the ability to feel..is  natural property of Indians, don’t believe it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;OK… Wherever you are on earth..if u listen MS Subbalaxmi’s bhajan u’r senses are delighted!! You listen “Jana..gana mana…”/ ‘Sare Jahan se acha…’ you&lt;/span&gt; can’t stop yourselves from reminiscing those green memories, innocent people…calling people by relation(anna..chelli…mamayya…atha..amma nanna….tatayya….ammamma..etc..jijaji…tau…nana..nani..dada..dadi…)….respect to elders….holi..deewali..all these are we…we Indians.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Such India is today is on the verge of a great leap. We should be a part of this. Everybody will have their own way to contirbute….we have our own . We have access to knowledge that we will share, spread… there are best of the best of the best Indian minds out there and they’ll help. The challenge would be networking with them…establish a knowledge sharing base…and deliver it by customizing it for our country's needs. Pretty ambitious eh…? Naa…not really…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We have our own little philosophy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We believe in the principle of Intergration that we come across in calculus…small parts integrated together make a huge entity. Hence, every big change is an integral of ‘dx’ that is small difference.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We believe in the principle of ‘Resonance’. “Any frequency which continuously repeats itself at regular intervals of time…and if it matches natural frequency of body..will produce a huge sound(energy)”. Anybody who makes a small difference continuously and repeats it at regular intervals of time, will one day create a huge change.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We can bring about that change, a huge one sustainable change…..needn’t be prime minister and government for it. Just have to spend our time out there. Put little effort with conviction ..and keep striking…..one day we’ll produce fire(That’s why there is fire above ‘i’ in Aakrithi). We use fire because ‘Fire’ is quick…it spreads quickly..and releases energy. Yes we need to ignite that fire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Now link between dreams and India: Every Indian has dreams, we all have. First and foremost dream is to fill the stomach, to have a shelter. For this everybody needs a source of income.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;No we're not pointing towards re/free-distribution of wealth. No way. Because giving money to the desperate, is like pouring alcohol in the mouth of thirsty person. You’re basically spoiling him by doing so. We’ll show the way..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We may not be able to currently give anybody any source of income. But we are gonna give them the awareness. We will share our knowledge about how to go about it. But inherently we will focus on giving .....ethics….the fearlessness....and the social responsibility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We’ll put an effort to realize..to shape dreams as we can play a role here. It would be an endeavor…an organization…a network of similar minded people. It would be a dream-shaping company…called ‘Aakrithi’. Aakrithi means shape.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;We will help people shape dreams. Hence the aakritihi to our dreams…is.
