8 Harry Potter spells we all wish we could use

Well who literally did not desire to enter the cryptic and phenomenal world of Harry Potter while watching or reading about it. We all definitely did. However there are spells and incantations as well from the extra-mundane potter-sphere which we all hope we could use in our “muggle-world”.

Let’s have a look at some of the spells from the mystical world of Harry that we wish were real.

Reparo– (Repairs broken things) – Oops I broke my glasses! Oh I’m sorry it’s me who broke that vase apart! Don’t worry! You won’t have to be so remorseful all those times once you would be a master of this “lucrative” incantation. Just spell Reparo and you’re done as It’s for repairing any broken object that we cast this spell on. It would be great using it, won’t it!

Accio– (Summons objects to the spell caster) – Imagine a lethargic day, you are completely exhausted post buckling down and can’t even have a coffee for yourself. Don’t worry! Just murmur Accio and whatever you wish to have in your grasp will come to you while you’ll be blinking your eye. Won’t that be a great thing if we all could “really” do? I just wonder how many times we would be using that for binge eating 😉

Confundus– (to confuse anyone) – You got that right! Yeah just that! Yeah yeah just that what you understood! Got confused? Well that’s what this spell does. Just cast it on anyone and leave the person baffling around. Don’t you think most of us would be using that once asked to submit a report to boss or professor? Wow… fascinating 😉

Hey friends, I have written my debut novel, “The Monsoon Marigolds”! read it and show me some love! 🙂 It will be very special for me!

Muffliato– (to fill someone’s ear with unknown buzzing ) – To all the gossip mongers, it would have been a boon to use this incantation. Just cast it on anyone you don’t want to hear you conversation and leave them with buzzing sounds in ear. Now pursue inexorable chat with your confidants and relish.

Alohomora– (to open locked doors) – In our busy schedules these days, it happens quite often that we leave our keys somewhere and then keep on struggling to unlock the locked doors. If only we could have this spell for real, we could open all the doors we wished to. Wait! Won’t that be a bit notorious keeping in mind the malevolent ones!

Episky– (to heal minor injuries) – Listlessness while even thinking of visiting a doctor for minor injuries or cold or flu could have been a thing of past if we could use this spell which is known to heal a minor injury or health worry. EPISKYYYY!!!  Don’t worry, was just testing if it could work on you all. 😉

Lumos–  (to produce flash of bright white light) – Now that’s what we really really want as albeit our phones come with torch but what if our phone itself goes missing? That happens quite recurrently with many of us. Just wonder how would it be to lighten up the ambience wherever we wanted with just an incantation. By the way, did you also imagine disco light effects with that?

Aguamenti– (to conjure jet of pure water) – While lack of fresh water is a serious issue all around globe, don’t you all think it would have been a blessing to produce fresh water with this water producing charm. Well I believe most of us would still be using it to get rid of going to the kitchen to get some water. Am I right?

Book Review- The Grapes of Wrath

The Grapes of Wrath

By John Steinbeck

pp 464

There are books that make you laugh, cry, romantic, some makes you end up being an erudite, but then there are books that propel you- make you angry, sympathetic and compassionate and predominantly make you contemplate what the world is all about, how it works and how it has been working since ages.
This, John Steinbeck’s Pulitzer Prize winner, The Grapes of Wrath, belongs to the second category.

Focused on the family of Joads, tenant farmers in Oklahoma and having a backdrop of “the great depression”, it’s the story of the family driven from their homeland and set out for California. The expedition makes them come across many “Okies” of their genus, withstanding same situation, sometimes worse.
Their hope to get work in California keeps them traveling regardless of ups and downs such as demise of Grampa and Granma, separation from Noah Joad-eldest son of family, Tom-the protagonist,  Connie-son in law of Joad family &c.
At last they reach California- where their hope lied- to work, to earn livelihood, to have their home, food and an easy life away from agricultural crisis, economic hardships, bank foreclosures and of course “Dust Bowl”. But what they realise at the end is the devastated hope and shattered dream they had seen before setting out.

Hey friends, I have written my debut novel, “The Monsoon Marigolds”! read it and show me some love! 🙂 It will be very special for me!

The Grapes of Wrath is a realist novel which carves out the helplessness, fears and apprehensions of the tenants at the time of the great depression in the 1930’s. It talks about human emotions in the most realistic and lively way without losing the creativity and beauty of the writing.
The on going changes in the behaviour of the people with changing circumstances of life, vulnerability of humans with the determination to live without succumbing to the situation has been depicted in this timeless classic in such a way that it never becomes obsolete in context to human nature.
The struggle to live, to earn bread and to see the family together and happy is the soul of this book.
But the economy of a country and its affects on the working class is something that can’t be neglected while talking about this book. Load of economic disturbances on the farmers and their unpredictable future is not only the part of this book but is a problem rampant worldwide since ages.

Book like The Grapes of Wrath offers not just a thought provoking writing piece but also brings to the notice the economic hardships of different classes and in particular the farmers especially when a situation like economic disturbance breaks out.

John Steinbeck definitely touches the nerves of the readers and tells exactly what might happen to the working class and how upheavals come in their lives suddenly.
This book is definitely one of those books you must read before you die. If you wish to read about a perfect portrayal of human apprehensions and will to survive, you must read this classic and have one of the best and most unforgettable reading experiences.
