Being At IIM Raipur Is About Giving Back To The City - Shashank Patekar

Let us all for a second entertain this thought that a college campus can be perfectly defined by the term organism. According to  Google, an organism can be defined as a system or organisation consisting of interdependent parts, compared to a living being, now compare this to the scenic chaos at your colleges, don’t you all see the campus as reflection of your emotions, for instance, the placement season is on, you have resounding silence in the corridors, cometh the hour of college festival a magnetic pulse of energy, the hour of submission and worried frenzy, the place almost is an absorption tank of the collective Diaspora it dwells with, taking in the good and bad, and teaching lessons of survival and abundance in a breath.

Joka To Everest Base Camp

Joka To Everest Base Camp

People ask, 'What is the use of climbing Mount Everest?' Let me tell you this, 'It is of no use.' There is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever. Oh, we may learn a little about the behaviour of the human body at high altitudes, and possibly medical men may turn our observation to some account for aviation. But otherwise, nothing will come of it. We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver, not a gem, nor any coal or iron... If you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it, that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward, then you won't see why we go. What we get from this adventure is sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for. These were the words of Mr. George Mallory.
