To me research is like painting or gardening! Other people must not influence too much. I always try to design my research in ways I feel exiting. Therefore, I do not prefer to show my every steps when I am doing the work. After confirming a part or the whole thing I want to disclose my secrets of discovery/invention. I want to say Eureka, Eureka!! That’s my joy of work. I feel comfortable and uninfluenced. Sometime I try to find out the gaps of other people’s research and feel those things. This is my research philosophy. Otherwise I feel naked, people are seeing everything! I don’t like to walk naked!!!

Unfortunately, nowadays there are many “teachers” who want to teach the students the way we feed the babies! The babies grow well in most cases, but the brains of the students do not! As in most cases they are spoon feed. Therefore they do not have original ideas. They are under influenced of “teachers”/drugs! They drive their life vehicle under influence! Gradually they develop as “dependent scientists”. We don’t need such scientist for the society.

Actual scientists develop naturally. Millions of reactions occur in their brains everyday and they develop few ideas from the reactions. Some of the ideas they implement in their practical life/services. Many are evaporated due to lack of scope or facilities.

Most scientists are not PhDs.  The may be Masters or Bachelors. But they are generating lots of new information and developing systems. We always benefited from their ideas and inventions. Many of them may not get the return! The actual credits go to others people! Therefore, sometimes we may see talents are not in the right tracks! What can we do for them?

We need good schools, good teachers, good managers. We need freedom, so that we can think independently, generate ideas, and not too “influenced” by others.  How much are you influenced by others? Zero to 100%? Have you tried to be independent? Why you failed? How you passed? We need such answers for our betterment of life! Otherwise one day everything will be polluted!        How much pollution we can tolerate?

Good concept and research are essential for this society. Where can you find it? We have to generate new concept by practicing original thinking, thinking and thinking!!!

I am now thinking! Let me think again and confirm my findings! You have chance to give me input; I may ask you any time at your convenience!

When I start something, it grows. I observe whether it is normal or abnormal growth. If abnormal, I try to stop it logically. I try to understand the problems. This is very important to me. How do you solve your problems? I cherish my exceptions. Let’s share ideas!

When I have free time and try to do something good. It may be very small or insignificant! But I enjoy it in many ways. I dream for better things.
