5 REASONS WHY I LOVE BATMAN


When I started watching superhero movies (all thanks to Sam Raimi's Spiderman Trilogy) Superman was my favorite superhero. He got super-strength, heat vision, super speed and the list goes on. During that time when I came to know about Batman, I thought he might be having powers related to bat or something like that, but to my disappointment, I discovered that he hasn't got such superpowers and to my utter shock don't even have a superpower (except obviously he is rich).

I was like, what kind of superhero is he and why do they even call him a superhero. So I just stop taking him seriously. Then one day while scrolling down videos on Youtube, I came across his origin story and as I saw it, my mind just got blown away. Then I started searching more about him. And with due course of time, he became my favorite superhero. So here I am with five reasons why I love Batman:

1. His Symbol:

The bat symbol on Batman's chest is unique. As it does not depicts his strength (which is generally depicted by symbols of other superheroes) but depicts his childhood fears. How?

Once when Batman aka Bruce Wayne was young, he accidentally falls into a cave full of bats, which made his shiver down to his spine out of fear and thus developed in him, fear for bats. But after the tragic murder of his parents, he visited the same cave remained there surrounded by bats till his fear vanished. So the symbol describes his weakness which, he conquered to become extraordinary.



2. Batman never give up:

One of the greatest strengths of Batman is his spirit of never giving up. Even if you injure him near to death, even if you take away everything from him and lock him up at a place from where no one could ever escape. (which Bane did in the movie 'The Dark Knight Rises'). He will come back by becoming even stronger than before.

3. Batman always got a backup plan:

Batman's farsightedness is just out of this world. He always knows what could possibly go wrong while executing a particular task and thus have a backup plan ready at the beginning itself. In one instance from DC comics it was found that Batman got contingency plans to defeat each member of the Justice League, just in case they turn evil. Including himself!

4. Batman biggest strength is his values:

Batman got a very strong value system which, he follows at all costs. It is because of this value system that he just can't be deceived from his path or corrupted by anyone. He has a clear understanding of right and wrong, justice, and injustice. He believes in the system. That's why he doesn't kill anyone but hand them over to the police. In the movie 'The Dark Knight' Batman sacrifices his own superhero image just to ensure that people's belief in justice and truth remain alive.


5. He is a Normal Human Being:

Batman is not an alien from another planet, not a superhuman or something but a normal human being in a bat costume, still, he had saved Gotham city and even the whole world many times by defeating some of the strongest and deadliest villains of all time. This clearly shows that you don't need superpowers to do great things, all it takes is courage, belief in oneself, and determination to fight injustice.

Power of our Believes

In the Mahabharat, there is this beautiful question that Yaksha asks Yudishthir  What is life's greatest irony? To this, Yudhisthir answers-  "It is the desire to live eternally. Every day we encounter people dying but we always think that death will never come to us."  In my opinion, this desire or belief is necessary for you to do things you are doing right now. Just think for a minute If you start thinking that you may die tomorrow, would you be able to live with this fear? And if yes  to aesa jeena bhi koi jeena hai . Can our beliefs change our lives? Yes, they are continuously doing it. Let me tell you how. All the decisions that we make in our lives are based on the rules that make for ourselves based on what is wrong and what is right. These rules act like a compass that guides us through the journey of life and actually determines where we go in life and what we eventually become. But here is the fun part what you think is 'right' may not be 'right...

Analyzing 3 Idiots: A Groundbreaking Masterpiece by Rajkumar Hirani

  Recently, I was watching 3 Idiots AGAIN and my Mom told me Why don't you do a Ph.D. on the movie? You have seen that same movie like hundred times already. Well, I took that as a compliment and started my research on it. Unfortunately, as no University gives a degree of that sort, my research came to an end but what I found was groundbreaking. 3 idiots was the highest-grossing Bollywood movie of its time with a lifetime gross of Rs.459.96 crores. The secret behind its huge success is its popularity not only in India but also in other Asian countries like China, South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong as well. In China, it has become so popular that it has given the status of a CULT movie. In South Korea, it has remained number one at the Box Office for five weeks. It was the first Bollywood movie to be aired in Hong Kong, even then it was the 14th highest-grossing film of 2011 at Hong Kong Box office.   So what actually makes 3 Idiots so popular among the masses? What is so speci...

How to Be Happy in Our Day to Day Life

We as human beings have an innate tendency to desire things we don't have. According to Gautam Buddha, this desire is the ultimate cause of suffering in our life. The reason for this being that our mind associates happiness with the achievement of these desires and we don't get that we suffer we become sad and hopeless.  So should we stop desiring anything from life? No. We just can't do it. According to Buddha, it's the desire and suffering that actually makes anything alive. A nonliving thing can't have desire or suffering. Again it's the desires that make us discover to manifest new things to satisfy them. These things many times actually benefit a large population. So what to do? So why don't we try having fewer desires? Well, that's a good idea having few desires like getting your dream job or clearing the UPSC exam (jyada personal ho gya). These are things that are actually necessary to become successful. But it is easy said than done because there...
