[12] Khujli-The Itch which leads to discovery

From the title you might be wondering if it is another desi movie title. 'Khujli' or itch is the driving force which initiates all creative pursuits of humans, end product could be anything from theory of relativity, the paintings of DaVinci or something as worthless as this article. All starts from the same source- the khujli of man. Mr Anonymous said 'necessity is the mother of invention', but if you think about it you might find that Khujli is the mother of invention. Case in point is invention of fire. Every early man would need fire. But it was not until the man of khujli, who rubbed flintstones together did fire came to being. So, the invention has to be attributed to the man of khujli, not the others who 'needed' it and were scratching their balls.

By now you must have understood that by khujli I do not mean it literally (for which you use ringcutter-daad, khaaj aur khujli ka dushman) but it is a feeling of some 'keeda' crawling in your heart, stomach or ass (Research shows diff ppl feel it in diff areas) which prevents you from sitting still until you satisfy the hunger of the 'keeda' or just ignore it.

Acting on the khujli is a noble pursuit and even it is not rewarding is atleast fun, bcoz it is a vent to the desire from within.
