On Self-guru-ing

 

Self-guru-ing is not an easy task. It is difficult.It requires mind control and a great sense of logic. The rewards that it will fetch is that you get to learn an art or learn a management paradigm. This may give you extra money too.

The most important thing in self-guru-ing is not having desires. That is you do not indulge in learning the art or the management paradigm on desires. You must have a concrete reason in your mind. However the willingness to learn the art or the management paradigm is a wish. Not a desire.

There are certain things you must be clear in your mind about the art or the management paradigm. As an example let us consider drawing. Whether pencil or color. If color, whether water-color or oil. If pencil whether portraits or cartoons. If you feel you want to learn all then it will be difficult. Though it may be wish and not a desire. Still it will be tough. Clarity and focus are essential.This calls for practicality of ideas.

When you start working on your art, you will realize that there are many aspects to the art that you are self-guru-ing. As an example, when you do portraits, you will realize that proportions, perspective, shading are so important. My point is that you must perfect one of these first. And only then should you proceed to the other two. Example, you concentrate on proportions and improve it to considerable level. Then you concentrate on shading. Otherwise the errors will all sum-up and you will end up in confusion.

De-motivation happens in self-guru-ing. Guruji will help you in overcoming de-motivation and you will certainly move ahead. Have faith in your abilities. Look out to internet for solutions. Apply thinking to the problem you face. Gradually your de-motivating factor will vanish and you will get back your confidence.

Khuda haafiz !!

Taylor series and Rational number series

There is a very compelling and interesting similarity in Taylor series and Rational number series.

It is indeed a great honor that Rational number series has a similarity with Taylor series.

Please refer to below material :-

The topmost statement is the Taylor series.

The second statement is Rational number series expression.

The third is deduced from the second expression.

The fourth has been modified from the third expression based on a mathematical expression I made and posted earlier.

Additions to tea in India

In India, Assam tea is the most preferred tea. And the most consumed. 

Normally one teaspoon of tea from the packet is added to boiling water. It is allowed to simmer in the hot water for about a minute. Then sugar and milk is added. This mixture is allowed to simmer in medium flame for about a minute. The tea is now ready.

Many times people add additives to tea to beat stress, soothe coughs, enhance mood and add flavor.

Some of the additives I have tried are:-

1. Tea Masala - Tea masala is a ready-made product available in market. It is manufactured by large spice making companies like Everest etc. Half a teaspoon for a cup of tea is ideal to enhance the flavor of tea.Tea that we have at about 11 am or so are best enjoyed if tea masala is added to it.

2. Himalayan Amrit Herbal tea - This product is meant to be taken alone as a herbal tea. But what I do with Himalayan Amrit Herbal Tea is that I add half a teaspoon of it to the regular Assam tea being prepared. This way not only do I manage to control cost but I also get the flavour of the Himalayan Amrit herbal tea. This is best enjoyed at about 5 pm with music switched on.

3. Ginger, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, black pepper etc. - Depending on the mood and your perception of your health the above can be ground and put to the regular Assam tea being prepared.

4. Readymade tea with Mulethi - Nowadays teas with mulethi and other herbs are readily available as a packet. This tea is good for health and we do not have to add anything more to it. This has to be prepared like a regular tea.

That's all folks for now. Have a very nice day, dear blog readers.

No errors aimed for

 I am aiming for no errors. There may be over performance or under performance. But zero errors aimed for.

Gulshan Grover. White sheet. HB pencil.

Presently

 

The drawings are okayish. 

The problem is one does not come to know where one is wrong. If alone. I ask my mother and am posting the images after she is able to recognise the faces.

Another thing is I use images in mobile. Neither a laptop or a printout.

In case you fail to recognise the above are drawings of Amitabh Bachhan and Kamalhaasan.

Goodbye dear readers. Have a wonderful day ahead.

Self-guru-ing my way ahead

Self-guru-ing is a bad thing. It is dreadful. But in India you cannot help it. Because the gurus may not be appropriate. Anyway it is a very big discussion as to who is the right guru. Guru Nanak of course is. And it is Sikhism I look forward to when I write this article. 

I drew this. Grey paper used. White pencil used. 4B pencil used. No proportional divider used.

It is Jeevan. The bollywood character actor. Usually villian in bollywood movies.

My point is that to improve I have to self-guru my way. 

Because in India there is no way a commoner can learn to draw shadows of a white statue.

Have a great day, dear readers.

Shading face is working

 

Shading faces is working for me. It seems to be the case.

I was good in shading clothes. An idea cropped up. What if the face is covered with cloth? What if the cloth becomes thinner and stickier? Then I began to work. This idea is working for me.

You may try with the idea written in previous paragraph. And tell me if it works for you.

Good day wishes, dear blog reader.
