Is it......
I still don’t believe, I have a
             chance
                           By
                    Shipreeta Verma
                   X.I.M.B. (uh12043)
A little HISTORY
• I was still six when my Granny told me stories of
  Ramayana and Mahabharata, I just got mesmerised.
• At twelve I never missed a single episode of Sri Krishna
  (The only T.V. Show I watched those days), happily
  accepting mockeries of friends.
• By the eighteenth birthday, I had known that Indians
  discovered- zero, decimals, republican system of
  government, had given one of the oldest written text,
  was the first to abolish slavery and what not. I was sure
  that this couldn’t be the result of a few innovative minds.
  It had to do something with THIER HISTORY.
So What???
• I felt, I had got the answer to my simple question, “Why
  dint my Granny’s story seem as a simple fairy tail? Why
  did it sound real?” “It is real” was my belief. “It very much
  is a part of our glorious history.”
• My belief got stronger when I learnt about “Well planned
  city of Dwarika” drowned in water and when I got to
  know that historians have agreed that battle of
  “Mahabharata” was actually fought.
• Suddenly analyzing various events of our so called
  mythology (I don’t consider them myth ) and calculating
  about their chronological order became my biggest
  hobby.
Still eighteen, I got into   • I joined my engineering, secured
an engineering college
                               fairly good marks, but did not
                               leave behind MY HISTORY.
                             • I continued to read various
                               articles, theories about Indian
                               History and got to know various
                               contradicting view about same
                               issues, about same instances,
                               about same episodes.
                             • Then it struck, “Why just rely on
                               others interpretations, why not
                               interpret myself ”
Passions Combined
Belief Vs Reality
      Belief                       Reality
• I have immense             • I have limited
  knowledge                    knowledge
• I can easily               • A lot of study
  divide our                   has to be done
  history into                 to reach to this
  similar time                 level
  frames                     • Knowledge is
• Knowledge is                 not just hard,
  not difficult to             but also
  attain if you                expensive to
  have interest                attain, even if
                               you have
                               interest
The DREAM
• Getting to know about the reality made me forget
  about my desire.
• It was perhaps lost somewhere till I heard of
  Godrej loud. “I can fund the expenditure of this
  study. Hurray!”
• My DREAM for today is to learn Vedic Sanskrit
  and read the original copies of more the more
  ancient books and gather relevant information
  for my BOOK
Approximate Expenditure
            (Breakup)
• Cost of learning Vedic Sanskrit (Distance
  Learning)- Rs.45,000
• Cost to visit various old libraries(Travel and
  other expenditure included)- Rs. 60,000
• Cost of buying few important books- Rs. 30,000
• Misc. Cost- Rs. 10,000

• Total- Rs. 1,45,000
Thank you
