Anuranan -Resonance
Resonance or Anuranan [in Bengali] – is a term coined from Web Theory in physics, in simple words it is the tendency of a system to oscillate at larger amplitude at some frequencies than others , Ohhhh…. Sorry, here my intention is not to see it through the lens of Physics. We can tweak the definition of resonance for those who purposefully choose a mutually exclusive equation with Science : Some frequencies [ events] affect us more than anything else in this world and their effects stay with us for years together in a harmony with our soul and mind – We call it Resonance .Let us see “Resonance” through the prism of Life . In every stage of our life we find ourselves associated with resonance. In most of the cases we hardly focus on “Resonance” associated with physical events or objects like Pendulum, on the contrary, “Emotional Resonances” do not go unnoticed to our so-called conscious mind, but we just feel it, hardly try to analyze it. What if we keep all those complex theories of resonance, heavy philosophical concepts of Emotion ,subconscious and conscious mind etc aside and find out some simple relationship between Our life and Resonance ?
Almost all of us are familiar with our playground Swing .We might have observed if we push a person in the swing with the natural interval of the swing, the person sitting in the swing enjoys a harmonious ride, faster or slower tempo will make the ride anything but harmonious. It is an example of resonance in our Physical world, many a thousand such examples exist in the mundane world. Instead of digging deep into those examples let us walk down a virtual carpet of the “Emotional Resonance”.
Many times we found that suddenly we started liking a song [though same song did not catch our attention before] and we keep on humming the song for several days .I don’t know whether it happens with others but it happens with me .It’s kind of resonance only, the frequency of the song exactly synchronize with our mental state at that time.
How many of us at least once in our life waited at a bus stand hours after hours continuously locking and unlocking our eyes with a perfect stranger disconnecting ourselves from this mundane world and when we get back to the real world we can not figure out the number of route buses we skipped in those lovely hours . I don’t know what do you call it, but I prefer to call it an “Instant Resonance”.
Now at this point more or less all of us have at least some idea of “What is resonance and how does it work?”. But some natural questions pop up in our mind like “Why does the effect of those songs sometime stay only for a very short time in our mind and vanish form our mind” or “Why do not all the bus stand stories end up in eternal bonding “.Yes, It is because of the “Dampening factor” or obstruction which always works against the harmonious state of Resonance. For Example in the case of the Bus stand Story, when we get back our consciousness at the juncture of social or family restrictions, personal commitment, in some cases distance or the strangeness of the person act as dampening factor and destroy the harmonious state of the resonance . But does it mean that there is no successful bus stand story which brings two unknown faces under eternal bonding. There are lots. So in that case is Love also an example of resonance? Yes but only in the case of platonic or unselfish love. “Mutual” or “Selfish” love and resonance can not co-exist . In the age of nuclear family, Sometimes people break away from their family and stay apart, it does not mean that they do not love their family, but it is obvious that they are not in resonance.
But sometimes a near to perfect kind of resonance may occur between two persons irrespective of sex , location ,the distance between them and all other external factors . Because of their similar thinking patterns, compatible way of acting, embedded values towards life are in sync with each other. In other words, two like-minded persons resonate together. External factors can not affect the equilibrium that exists between their minds. The concept of ”Universal Mind” [each and every mind are connected with each other though a central mind – called universal mind] describes these minds as twin minds which is a rarest of rare case. It is so unusual that none of the society or culture in the world has bothered to define any name for this relationship .But when this resonance occurs between two minds of opposite sex , we misinterpret it as love though in all cases it is not true. But in Bengali sometime we express the situation as “Anuranan” – synchronization of frequencies . Neither is it well-defined, nor acknowledged, only felt at every beat of the second from the core of the heart evolving around two resonating minds!!
