Imagine life without imagination

Hello and happy diwali to all the readers and non-readers .
Just back from a fest of an MBA college ,my friend gaurav is attending.During the extempore their one guy asked us to use our imagination in the songs containing the word DIL(heart) which he is going to sing,replace dil with some other word and see the fun.Then he sang some ,and you should have been their to see the srowd going mad as a drunkun elephant.Here is an example.
"Do dil mil rahe hai,magar chhupke chupke...."
Just give it a try ..
Then some days later in a hindi daily paper,a management author gives an example of an old guy who muted the sound of an adertisement going on TV,and give it his own meaning to explain the importance of education to village girls.That was a pretty good imagination,and a worthy one.

That remind me of some imaginations of mine ,which i am giving here for you to imagine.
I'm not a genius or an old experienced person so,sorry if some thing i'm writing is not correct.
Here they are............
Give them a try
Imagine bhagat singh tricked and escaped from british prison,just a day before he was to be hanged.
Imagine what could have been the course of history if subhash chnadra bose didn't died in the plane crash,came back to india ,form a strong army here,what could have been the scene of british colonial sun.
Or atleast imagine,jinnah died 6 months earlier,pakistan was not formed.United hindustan ,the biggest independent democracy.
Sorry if i sound overimaginative ,but i believe in what Einstein told me(although not personally)
That" imagination is more important than knowledge"
Ok lets continue with some more imaginations...
indira gandhi changed her bodyguards on IB's advice...
that single decision could have saved lives of thousands of people, millions of rupees ,and god knows what else including her also.
Lets be a little faster...........
Imagine no emergency,no strict rules.then you won't have Salim-Javed giving you your angry young man ,who still give a competition to some of the young stars of bollywood today .
Imagine Rajiv Gandhi not getting into politics,no Sam Pitroda,no telecom revolution in india,no internet,no blogs,then you would have beeen reading Dickens or chetan bhagat or maybe bill gates.

Imagine no caste sytem in india, no cheap labour, no outsourcing, no IT revolution,no globalisation,no software.most of my friends jobless,and so on.

Imagine no 9/11,easy entry to US,me doing MBA from harward,u doing job there or vice-versa,as you like.


Continuing the tradition of imagination , i present to you one old question,where you have to use your imagination ,but you generally prefer copying somebody else's imagination,somebody who imagine for making money(read-MBD guides,ten year papers, etc.).Here i will request you to do it yourself.

1.What would you do if you were
a.)Prime minister of India?
b.)Captain of India Cricket Team?
c.)..............................
and the last but not the least"IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT IMAGINATION ???????


enjoy.
