The Journey Beyond States

The Story of My First Flight


The time was 12:15 pm (23rd July, 2016) at clock, it's time for left Agartala. That time I was two minded, one was full of excitements and another was deep in  sorrow. Tears were appearing in that lady's eye, that lady was no one, but she was the world's most precious thing which I have achieved from the almighty; my mom. Two drops of tears appeared in my eyes too. But a different future was eagerly waiting for me there, so I did my mind strong and just said "Bye! Meet you again very soon." to her, my sister and my friend Prakash and took a step forward. Before entering airport I just turned and saw that face that was staring at me and that time she gave a just smile that hid all the pain behind just for me to feel no worries.

The time was 1:15 pm, The flight was just going to take off. The cabin crews were alerted to take the seat belt and mobile phones or electronic devices were switched off or put in airplane mode. I have heard so many words from people and also read in books that during take off blood pressure issues arise and some unhealthy conditions like vomiting, nose-bleeding etc. happened. I just closed my eyes and prayed to God "Keep me safe during the journey". I became too scared when the plane was passing through the black clouds because it was shaking at that time. When it reached normal I just took my mobile phone and clicked some pictures of the ground and clouds.  At the time of landing I had almost no feelings of fear that I had heard about flights.


At 2:05 pm we arrived Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport, Dum Dum(Kolkata). From Kolkata our fight was at 03:10 pm. We left only one hour for checking up. And there was a very long queue. My brother request to the security guard and finally we overcome that boring crowded queue and reached to the next plane. I was feeling extremely tired and hungry. In the flight we took noodles to overcome that hunger. Then I needed rest and soon fell asleep. When I opened my eyes I saw that I was in a dry, warm, region, the place was our Pink City, Jaipur only.

We (me, my brother and father) booked a cab online and after 8 minutes arrived to the place which was welcoming us.
Guess the place!!!

 Hope we meet again very soon... ;)

The Jungle Road

"Puu (My home name)! O Puu! Bwsok thu baa! bwcha diba" (Mom awakening me at morning, as I'm now in native and passing my golden and black & white days. Golden because food, always in home my favorite food and black & white because there are no friends, it's boring). I woke up, though didn't want. Finishing toilet and brush doing some work like washing dishes, cleaning room.... and then taking breakfast. Then didn't do any special work. The days are going so boring in home. Passing by listening songs and sleeping and meeting with cousins. Missing a lot those days of hostel like mess with  Raviranjan Kumar Badal ,  K Santosh ; making chicken; the calling of  "Sunn Motae"  from  Suraj  and lots of activities with them. In home there is no one with whom I can enjoy, the only one person is my elder elder  Kamalesh Tripura (Nanu Da)  with whom I can share my everything like friends. At afternoon me & Nanu Da out for a short drive near my...

The Journey Beyond States-II

At 5:30 pm we reached our destination. The cab driver dropped us in front of guest house, Indradhanush. I and my brother went into the guest house to talk with manager. But the manager was unable to give us a room because all room were booked and told us to go to Aurobindo Hostel. Despairingly, we left the guest house and then covered about one kilometer. We got to Aurobindo Hostel, the gigantic hostel of the college. We somehow got a room in Aurobindo Hostel. After entering the room we took some rest. In the evening we (me, my father and my brother) went out for a walk. The weather was pleasant and at that time I felt nice, because of the pleasant weather in the rainy season. We went out of the campus and after walking one to two kilometers, became tired and thirsty. I remember that finding here-and-there a cold drink shop, we finally reached a restaurant (Royal Hut) and there took a Mountain Dew. After drinking cold drink we returned to the hostel. At 9 pm we reached the hostel...
