The beauty of a garden is proportional to the number of colours’ combinations. Human society also become beautiful like a garden while people of different colours, race, religions and opinions live together. In the way create eternal peace by loving, serving and understanding each-others.
After 1.5 decades of struggles, I have taken the decision. Japan will be my base. So I must have to live and enjoy like a native Japanese. From here I will continue to serve my country Bangladesh and the world. As part of my life mission in Japan, I am now studying the cultural history of Japan. Hope I will understand, as I understand Bangladesh.
The lectures of Professor Ravina of Emory University are good for understanding Japanese culture, history, art, lifestyle, religions, and glories.
Many friends and photographers say – smartphones and social media have killed photography. The golden time of photography has been finished. In a sense, the photographers are disappointed.
I don’t agree with them. Of course, the digital forms of photography have opened many opportunities, competition and many possibilities. The creators now need to adapt to the new ERR and flows of the third wave.
This is true, if photographers depend widely on smartphones and social media, instead of his SLD/DSLR camera, the values and creativity loss in the sea of bulkiness, however for quick capture.
As a creator, we need to use the digital media and options beyond the emotions. We should not track out the mind during capturing the moment but need to focus on target points with true love as photographers did in analog time. Unless photographers may don’t get perfect results, above all a ‘beacon of hope.
If you capture such a photo, of course, the image will be non-time-bound, eternal for all the time.
The word ‘Arigatou’ can change your life
If you can say at least 100 times to the persons whom you don’t like or to your enemies; your life and the views will change quickly from ‘Negative to Positive’ emotional mode.
After a few days of practice, just after making it a habit, you may get many blessings, peace and happiness from the person which you never imagine.
As a culture, for random use of ‘Arigatou ( Thank you), Gumannachi ( I am sorry), Kornichuwa (Greetings); the Japanese become the most modest and gentle nation of the world.
The ‘Ojigi’ bowing to each other is the physical expression of Arigatou in Japan. I love this ‘Thanks Giving’ culture and custom.
East Asian religions explain sex as divine, the ‘root cause of holiness and peace.
Contrarily, Indian and Middle East religions, particularly ‘Abrahamic Semetic Theology’ explain as the ‘root cause of suffering’.
The Japanese word ‘SEI’ has a double meaning. The terminology SEI is coined for SEX, at the same time ‘DIVINE’.
A few years before, I captured this photo in a ‘Japanese rural folk festival’. The performer was showing the divinity of sex.
Bangladesh like developing nations is floating with the emotions of social media. To get the life-oriented good result for happy life and society, we need to move ahead pragmatically.
Digital new media could not kill the spirit of old media, like books, TV, and DVD etc in Japan. It seems people are rethinking the effective use of the digital opportunity and time. Japanese generally don’t do piracy, copy-paste, emotional browsing; and don’t destroy the business of artists and producer. But Bangladesh is overflowing with the pirating emotions, mostly inherited from India, Fakistan!
Recently I have been motivated by the proper use of new media of Japanese friends. I think it needs to give priority to the old media simultaneously the new media interventions, as still most of the creation expressed and published first in old media formats. We should not root out our past. Root always gives us main strength!
It needs to effective usages of both combinations of old media and new media.
