What do you know about Tera Kya Hoga Kalia- Memory Improving
Methods? Are you surprised at the title? Eh! Its natural. How can a
dialogue from a film be related to memory improving techniques?
Before I explain the relation between the two, I want to ask you a
question.
Tera Kya Hoga Kalia is a dialogue from which film?
i)
Zanjeer
ii)
Kalia
iii)
Sholay
iv)
None of these
97% of the readers knew the answer even without looking at the
options. 2% of the readers would have remembered that the dialogue
is from the film Sholay after reading the options and just 1% would
perhaps not have any idea about it.
23
There would be many readers who might not have seen the film Sholay
but I am sure even they have heard the dialogue many times.
Again, the same question arises. What is so special about this dialogue
Tera Kya Hoga Kalia? How can it help open the rusted locks of our
memory? Or how will it help in sharpening our memory? Actually the
magic secret lies within the words of the dialogue. If we delete the vowels
(a, e, i, o, u) from the dialogue, the rules or secrets of memory techniques
are hidden in the remaining consonants. With the help of these rules you
can easily remember long number tables, telephone numbers, birthdays
and anniversaries etc. Very often in your student life, you have to
remember complex scientific equations, formulae and important historical
dates. Those of you who are pursuing professional courses like C.A. have
to memorise sections, cases, formulae etc. with the help of our memory
improving techniques they can easily learn all this in a very short time.
O.K. let me give you a memory test first. If I ask you to memorise
hundred digits from the table given on page 26, how much time will you
take? It is likely that you may not even be interested in answering my
question. For the simple reason that you may think that this is almost
impossible. It is not easy to memorise so many digits. If some of you are
ready to take this challenge, you will perhaps take an hour to complete
this exercise. If you are asked to repeat the digits after sometime, you
might get confused and you might forget many times. If you are asked to
repeat the digits in the reverse order? I think, you cannot even imagine
achieving this feat. And you would perhaps insist that it is impossible to
learn so many digits in the reverse order.
24
Once you have learnt the rules of Tera Kya Hoga Kalia Memory Improving
Methods (TKHKMIM), you will automatically get the answers to all these
questions. Because after you have learnt these rules, you will be able to keep all
these digits and numbers secure in your memory for ever. Whenever asked,
you will be able to give the exact reply. You would be able to repeat the digits
even in the reverse order or from any where for that matter.
You must be thinking that I am making rather tall claims. But I can
assure you that Tera Kya Hoga Kalia Memory Improving Methods will go a
long way in improving your memory because it is on the basis of these
very techniques that I have secured an entry into the Guinness Book of
World Records for the fastest memory in the world.
I was never an exceptionally brilliant or intelligent child. If I look
back towards my school and college days, I can see the image of a
student who would be sitting with a book, racking his brains for hours
trying to learn his lessons. It would take me hours to learn even the
smallest chapter and that too would be forgotten soon after. Sitting in
the examination hall, I would try hard to remember what I had
supposedly learnt so well, but to my utter dismay, my mind would be
totally blank. After leaving the examination hall, I would start recalling
in bits and pieces what I had learnt so well before entering the
examination hall. But you do not have to worry or panic, you have
TKHKMIM. With the help of these techniques you can learn complex
details in 2-3 hours which normally would have taken about 8 hours
for you to learn properly.
Have you ever tried to analyse what percentage of your brain is actually
put to use? Scientists believe that on an average we tend to use just 2-3 percent
25
of our brain. Whatever this percentage might be, a major portion of our brain
remains unused all our lives.
After the death of renowned scientist Einstein research scholars operated
upon his brain in an attempt to dissect how he became such a great scientist.
And they were shocked at their findings. Just 8% of Einsteins brain had been
active all his life. The gist of the matter is that 92% of the brain of as eminent a
scientist as Einstein was inactive and unused throughout his life. God or nature
has endowed us with such a brain that by using it to the utmost point we can
give more than twelve times better scientific results than what Einstein did.
Tera Kya Hoga Kalia Memory Improving Methods can help us utilise our
brain in a much better way. Now our Kalia shall help you awaken even the
dormant areas of your brain and utilise these to the maximum. Kalia can make
interesting even the most drab and uninteresting subjects. Till now the
characters from the film Sholay Jai, Veeru and Gabbar were just entertaining
you but now they will also help you in your studies, make you learn your lessons
in much less time and help you score good marks in your exams.
Before we proceed, we have to ascertain the level of your memory. For
this you have to learn a 100 digits table (from left to right) given below in
fifteen minutes. Just see how many digits you can learn in fifteen minutes
3 5
6 5
5 8
4 7
26
4 2
5 4
7 0
Fill the box below with the digits that you were able to learn in
fifteen minutes. This will tell us how ready you are to begin the
adventurous journey of memory improving techniques with us.
I assure you that with Kalias help and support you will be easily
able to learn your Maths, Social Studies, Sanskrit, Geography, Hindi,
English etc. But before this you must know what concentration is?
How does your brain work? Or what are the things that connect
easily with your brain?
In the next three chapters, we shall address all these issues from the
seventh chapter onwards, Kalia will be with you like a true and trusted friend.
27
28
For this you will have to remember an incident or a moment of your life,
when you were able to concentrate completely, you were fully attentive and
thoroughly immersed in that moment. For example
Dont you watch a movie with full concentration?
Do you hear the knock at the door or the telephone ring while
watching your favourite TV serial?
The major reason behind total concentration is interest. Yes, it is
our interest in a film, in a match or in a TV serial that helps us to
concentrate. The interest arrests our attention and we are able to
concentrate. We cannot concentrate on the areas that we are not
interested in. For example, the long answers that you have to learn,
you find them uninteresting and spiceless. Hence, your concentration
wanders and you cannot learn even after hours of struggle.
Now the question arises, how do we feel interested in certain
subjects and find others uninteresting. To know the answer to this
question, you will have to answer a simple question. Why do people
start crying while watching a movie? Yes, you guessed it right; they
get carried away in the rush of emotions. They start feeling that
those heart felt emotions on the screen are their own feelings. The
mental and the emotional state of the narrator gets connected to
their feelings and a state of identification is achieved.
It is this
they do not arouse our interest. We can relate or identify with things
only if we feel interested in them.
Try to remember an incident or a moment of your life in which you were
completely immersed. Your memory of such days or moments will be crystal
clear. For example, the day when you received a prize on the stage for the first
time? I daresay that even after many years, those moments are still firmly
etched in your memory.
Annual functions are organised every year in schools and colleges,
but you would remember only that particular function clearly in
which you also participated. As a viewer you may forget the
programme, but the one in which you were a participant will be
secure in your memory for ever because you were a part of that event.
Those moments have become a part of you.
Just imagine for a while that you are going on a road. Suddenly a ball
comes in front of you. It is possible that you may not even notice it. But if you
turn suddenly and spot your younger brother playing amongst the children at
the corner, you would feel interested in the game. It was your brother who
deliberately directed the ball towards you with his bat. Wont you want to
stop and watch your brother play? Wont you want to know his score and that
who is actually winning the match?
Why did you feel interested in that game of cricket? It is, because
of the presence of your brother. As compared to cricket matches
between other nations, why are we more passionately involved in
India Pakistan matches? It is because we are able to identify and
relate ourselves with the teams of India and Pakistan. They are a
30
part of us; the players are from amongst us. Obviously, we are more
interested.
It has often been observed that the human mind absorbs new
information only when it somehow matches the information that is
already stored there. This is known as Association law or the rule of
Association.
Now let us see how the law of Association can be applied to your studies.
How this law can help add punch and zing to your dull studies. How it can
help you remember events, dates and digits in no time and make the process
delightful as well.
Besides, from the seventh chapter onwards the art of
Memory Improving Methods will be with you. It is
generally said that with a good companion, the journey of
life becomes delightful. I am almost certain that with
Kalia the journey of this book will not only be adventurous
and interesting but will also be full of entertainment.
Memory is divided into three stages (i)
Learning
(ii)
(iii)
most. You must have observed that students forget their answers the moment
they get the question paper. They recall clearly having revised the same answer
just the night before or even early that morning. But despite this they cannot
recall the answer. The moment they come out of the examination hall, they
suddenly recall the entire answer.
The fact is that they had not really forgotten the answer. It was
lodged in a corner of the mind. Normally, many students have to
grapple with this problem of memory-loss.
For example if you meet someone in the market, the person
wishes warmly and comes forward to meet you. You strongly
feel that the face is very familiar but you are not able to recognise
and place him. You rack your brains trying to figure out where
you have met that person, who he is, how do you know him etc.
During the conversation you may remember a number of things
associated with him but you are still not able to recall his name.
Your hesitation doesnt let you ask his name and meanwhile the
person leaves. Many days later you suddenly remember the name
of that person at home. This happens because you had actually
not forgotten his name in the first place. It was there in your
mind. But you could not recall it at the right time. Remembering
and recalling at the right time are two different aspects of the
mind. With the help of Tera Kya Hoga Kalia Memory Improving
Methods you can learn and memorise in less time, retain for a
long time and recall at the right time.
Another secret lies in Imagination or Visualisation. Imagining a thing or
an event once is equivalent to speaking it twenty times. The nerves that connect
32
the eyes to the brain are twenty times more powerful than the nerves that
connect the ears to the brain. Hence what you have seen once remains in your
memory much longer than what you have just heard.
Let us take the example of a dog. The mental set-up of a dog is
such that by smelling or sniffing something, he can store it in his
memory and remembers the smell for a long time. Smelling or
sniffing is a very important part of the memory system of a dogs
brain. A dog does not have any other option but his sense of smell
and memory retention are very strongly connected.
A human being, on the other hand, has a strong retention power
of the things that he has seen or visualised and absorbed in his
mind completely.
33
Chain
Method
How many of you have seen the film Zanjeer. Do you
remember the hero and the heroine? Even if you have not
seen the film, you still know the meaning of the word zanjeer.
Dont you? It is a chain, a link that connects two different
things; let us take the example of a cycle. When you start
paddling, you can see that it is the chain that transfers the
energy from one wheel to the other. Anything that physically
links two different things together is called a chain. Prisoners
are also made to wear chains.
The rules of association and imagination shall be used in
the chain method as well.

While taking out water from the bucket, you drop your mobile in
it. You think of fixing the mobile and open a book. As you open the
book you see pictures of red tomatoes on each page of the book.
You pick up one tomato and as you chop it, a car comes out of it.
The car is loaded with biscuits. You drive the car but it runs out of
petrol. You go to the petrol station but the attendant fills cold drink
in the car instead of petrol.
37
After the car is filed with cold drink, it moves at a high speed and you are
unable to control it. It rams into a bag of sugar. You scream for help and some
people who are wearing red jackets come to your rescue. You find a beautiful
blue pen in their pocket. You start drawing and painting with that pen on a
white bed sheet of your house. A customer comes to buy the pen and you try
to tell the price with the help of a calculator. Suddenly, a white dog comes
running, snatches the calculator and swallows it.
38
39
See how the chain method helped you in linking different things together
and you were able to recall everything in the blinking of an eyelid.
40
Now let us talk about the shape method. Once you have
understood this method, you will have an easy access to Kalia.
In fact, the techniques of generating interest, concentration,
imagination and connection etc. are all various means of
reaching Kalia. Now, with the shape method you will learn
how to remember digits with the help of shapes connected to
them.
If you visualize the digit 1, dont you feel it resembles a
stick? In the same way the digit 2 is like a duck, 3 is related to
the shape of a heart, 4 to a chair, 5 is related to a hook, 6 to a
hockey stick, 7 to a lamp post, 8 to spectacles, 9 to a lollypop, 10
can be visualised as a bat and a ball.
41
Fill these shapes in the blanks given below. You can analyse if you have been
able to remember these shapes clearly or not.

picture emerges. Doesnt the word Kiran make you feel as if a key
is running? Words have this remarkable characteristic. If you
approach them intelligently they lend themselves to learning easily.
We can extract a familiar mind picture out of every alien word. This
method can help you memorise words much faster and you may
retain them in your memory for the rest of your life. The Kiran
method can also be called P.M.S. or personalized meaning system
method.
With the help of this method you can easily remember the names
of different places where minerals are found. If I say the word, coal,
you would immediately visualise coal but if I say, coal is found in
Raniganj, you would not be able to visualise Raniganj because the
mind has no picture of Raniganj. There are many other similar
words. Lets have a look at the chart given belowSteel
Raourkela
Cement
Katni
Brass Utensils
Muradabad
HMT Factory
Pinjore
Coal
Jharia
The moment we hear words like steel, cement, brass and H.M.T. factory, we
immediately strike a mental note of familiarly. But when we say Raourkela,
Katni, Muradabad, Pinjore and Jharia, no mind picture comes to our rescue.
With the help the of Kiran method we can easily create a mind picture of these
words as well. Let us see some examples and try to understand this method.
55
Coal-Raniganj
Kiran Method: Rani-ganj / Rani
Mukherjee-ganji. Imagine that the
actress Rani-Mukherjee is bald. Yes,
make a memory picture that Rani
Mukherjee has gone bald. She appears
totally bald on the posters of the film
Bunty aur Bubbly. You ask her the
reason of her baldness and she says
that someone burnt her hair with
coal.
56
Steel-Raourkela
Kiran method: Raourkela/ Rao-kela. Make a
memory picture of ex-prime minister Shri
Narsimha Rao, eating a banana (Kela). You
hurriedly try to tell him that the kela is made
of steel but before he is able to hear what you
are saying, he has already broken all his teeth
trying to eat the steel kela.
57
Cement Katni
Kiran method: Katni/ Cut-knee. Make a
mind picture that you have cut your knee.
You go to the doctor for a dressing. Instead
of using a bandage he plasters your knee
with cement. Your legs become so heavy
with cement that you walk back with great
difficulty.
58
60
Spain Madrid
Spain / Severe pain
Madrid / Mad
Kiran Method : A person is getting mad due to pain.
Germany Bundestag
Germany / Many germs
Bundestag / Bun-dus-tag
Kiran Method : There are ten (dus) buns in a tag and many germs are there in
them.
62
Now let us try and remember the names of a few countries and their capitals.
Kiran method
Country
Capital
Angola
Luanda
If you break these names, what do you get? Aag-kagola (ball of fire) and Lo-anda ' (Have an egg) Now imagine
a shopkeeper hands over eggs to you and says, Lo-anda
but when you hold it in your hands an aag-ka-gola comes
out.

O, you have been rather quick in befriending Kalia. Now we have to see
how Kalia helps the students of Arts, Science and Commerce.
1) Suppose you have to remember that the melting point of lead is 3270C.
You often get confused if it was 3270 or 2370. Now let us convert this into
letters with the help of Kalia.
3
N K
3 2 7
MoNKey
116
If you read the letters MNK together, the word monkey appears in
the mind. You can forget 3270 but you cannot forget monkey. Now we
have to connect lead with monkey.
Memory Picture: Imagine that you are writing with a lead pencil. A
monkey snatches it and runs away.
II. You have to memorise that the atomic mass no. of mercury is 2010.

As you join all the consonants you will get a word that will automatically
lead to a clear mind picture NST would lead to 'nest'.
Memory Picture :You have a mercury thermometer in your hand and you are
keeping it carefully in a nest.
Probably, you doubt the power of memory pictures. What
if we forget despite the memory picture? I can say this through
my own experience that memory pictures become so much a
part of us that it is impossible to forget them. If I ask you what
did you see in the car in the last chapter? What was filled in the
car instead of petrol? I am sure you would easily tell me that
the car was full of biscuits and cold drink was used to fill the
car instead of petrol. Anything with which you get emotionally
connected and anything that you visualise with the help of a
memory picture, gets firmly lodged in your memory and you
do not forget it easily.

We will use Kiran method (personalised
meaning system) and Kalia code method to
remember dates and events. For first two digits
of a year, we will use colours and Kalia code
method to memorise the last two digits. We will
use tri colours of our tiranga for 18, 19 and 20.
Then with the help of Kiran method we will
connect them with events.

To find out the month, you will have to remember the mental code of every
month e.g. August is 3. We have connected august with three colours of
tricolour. Similarly all the months have different codes e.g. January is 1, February is 4. You can memorise these codes from with the help of this table.

Take 1947. 19 is nothing (0). Code of 47 is 2. (Read table 2). This table
has mental code of all the years. Now we have to remember that 2 is
the mental code of 47. For this, connect 47 with 2.

Note 1: If remainder (On dividing date by 7) is more than 7, then repeat the
process of division as we have done in the above case.
Note 2: If you are finding the day of any year of 2000, then subtract 1 from the
answer of year 1900. e.g.
If it was Friday on 15th August 1947 then it was Thursday on 15th August
2000.
Exception: Leap Year- When we divide the year by 4 and remainder is zero,
such year is called Leap Year. i.g. 1984

If you remember these three tables then you can easily tell any
day of any year without any paper calculation. For memorising these
tables, take help of the figures given on the next page.
But memorizing these tables is not enough. You will have to
practice these things so that you can achieve the expertise of this
method.
Let us learn to remember the links. To memorise year code we
shall link year with Kalia method and corresponding year code with
Shape method.

Go straight from here and then turn left from the flyover. As
you go a little further, you will find a chemists shop. Turn right
from there and as you go a little ahead there will be a police
station, turn left from there. There is a peepal tree behind the
third house in the adjoining street. Turn right from there. Now
come straight. You will see a pan shop. My house is towards the
back side of the seventh house from this pan shop. The house is
on the main road.
What do you think of these directions? His house number is 3471.
Isnt the way rather cumbersome? At that time, you must have
nodded your head and told your friend that you have understood
the way. But when you started from home you were confused on the
very first turn, if you were to turn left or right from the flyover.
The fact of the matter is that human brain can remember and
memorise only those things which it can picturise. Although road
maps and routes are made through imaginary pictures only like the
pan shop, behind the hospital, in front of the Hanuman Mandir yet
words like left and right that are used with these landmarks lead to
confusion.
Whenever we go to a new place and ask the way, while some one is
explaining to you, you do not even want to pay attention because you
know that even after you have heard the entire route you will not be able
to remember it. So you have to stop to ask the way at five of six places. In
the road map words like left, right, U turn do not get any Memory Picture.
If in our mind we create a picture of these three we will be able to solve
this problem to a great extent.
193
Right
Red
Left
Leaf
U turns
Umbrella
If you remember Red, Leaf and Umbrella as left, right and U turn
respectively, understanding the road map will become very easy because you
dont need to be told when you have to go straight.
If you practice this with me, it will not take you much time to
understand this method. I am going to tell you the route to my house.
Connect the description and make a Memory Picture uSing these
symbols.
Come straight from a definite point. Turn left from the clock tower
(make a Memory Picture that the clock tower is laden with leaf).
Now come straight a little. You will see a show room of readymade
garments and sweaters. You have to turn left from here (Make a
Memory Picture that the show room is filled with sweaters made of
leaves). As you come a little further you will see some furniture
shops. You have to take a U turn from here (Imagine that every one
in the furniture shop is standing with umbrellas). As you come a
little further you would find a shed where advocates sit. Form here
you have to turn right. (Imagine that the lawyers are wearing red
coats and holding red files in their hands). As you come a little ahead
you will see a restaurant. You have to turn left from here. (Create a
Memory Picture that people are eating on huge leaves in the
restaurants.) Coming straight from here you will find the shop of a
mechanic. From here you shall turn right. (Imagine that there are
many red coloured cars and the mechanic is repairing one of them.)
194
As you come a little further, you have to take a U turn from the Hanuman
Temple. (Create a Memory Picture that Hanuman Ji is standing with an
umbrella).
195
You will take a turn from the opposite lane and you will see a post box. You
have to turn right from there (Create a Memory Picture that from the red post
box red letters are coming out.). As you go straight you will see a chicken corner.
A little further from here, there is a tuition centre. You have to take a left turn
from the street adjacent to that. (Imagine that the tuition centre is filled with
leaves). After the turn you will see a small pond. Take a U turn from here.
(Imagine that your friend is standing with an umbrella in the pond). This is my
house.
You must have already learnt the method as you listen to it. Now fill in
the blanks given below.

See how easily you could remember the way to my house in just about 15:20
seconds. If you had spent these 15 seconds, 10 years ago, you would have saved
yourself from a lot many problems. Actually small reasons lead to big problems.
196
For example a car can stop moving just because a small spark plug has not
been cleaned properly. In the same manner you must have realised by now
that ignorance about these three symbols had kept you away from learning
road maps.
Do you remember Ek Machhar Admi ko hijra bna deta hai (One
mosquito can turn a man to a eunuch). Yashwant -Nana
Patekar! Do you recall anything? Absolutely right! A Single
mosquito can destroy ones manhood. Whether we talk of a road
map, chemical reactions or indulge in long discussions about
mathematical equations, we would find that small reasons lead
to big problems. Even Arundhati Roy said that it is the God of
small things after all.
How easily our Ek Machhar Method made you over power
the three mosquitoes of the road map. If you go on practicing
like this, you will be so familiar with these symbols that you
will be able to remember road maps with remarkable ease
without a hitch.
In every subject we do have some mosquitoes bothering us here
and there. Let us talk about Maths. Just a small mark of addition or
subtraction has the power to make or mar your paper. In the coming
chapter we are going to take on the mosquitoes of mathematics with
the help of Ek Machhar Method.
Often the students of Mathematics dread remembering formulae because
when you look at them they seem so similar. Hence it is very difficult for the
mind to absorb them correctly. There is almost a negligible difference between
them. It would be better if you write them on a page and then try and find that
little difference. This shall yield the following activity.
197
d
(Cos x) = Sin x
dx
d (Cosec x)
= Cosec x . Cot x
dx
d (Tan x) = Sec2x
dx
Sushmita Sen
Cos
Cosmetic
Tan
Tank
Cot
Coat
Sec
Secretary
Cosec
Cassette
In the same manner let us do something with (+, -). The Memory Pictures that
I have for these are + = Ambulance
- = Negative i.e. Villain (Amrish Puri)
198
The students of mathematics will not have any problem remembering the
format of the formulae and they would not get confused at all. Now let me
explain to you how you can make picture of the formulae of trigonometry:
d
(Sin x) = Cos x
dx
1.
2.
d
(Cos x) = Sin x
dx
3. dx (Tan x) = Sec2 x
Tan x = Tank,
Sec x = Secretary,
Sec2 x = Two Secretaries
199
Memory Picture: In despair you climb up the water tank and two secretaries
help you to jump and you fall down.
200
4. d (Cot x) = Cosec2x
dx
Memory Picture: You are wearing an oversized coat. On the way you meet
Amrish Puri. He tries to snatch the coat from you saying that the coat belongs
to him. There are two cassettes in your coat pocket that prove that the coat
belongs to you.
See how with the help of imagination, symbols and correlation learning
formulae can become a fun task. For this we must use all our senses and see,
hear, speak and feel correctly.
Let me make this clear here that memory technique may not help in
memorising the entire formula. But these techniques can surely simplify the
points that confuse you. These techniques can also recognize the difference
between two formulae. They can also help you create beautiful memory
pictures.
ex e x = 2 (
x
x3
x5
+
+
+...
1
3
5
x2
x4
ex + e x = 2 ( 1+ 2! + 4! + . . .
If we have to memorise the above equations we must first pin point the
difference between the two. The only difference between the two is that one
equation has series with two fractions where as the other has three fractions
series. Here we shall apply memory technique to recognize this difference.
(+) = Ambulance, 2= Duck
201
2
log (1-x) = -x- x 2
log (1+x) = x + x
2
3
+ x +....
3
Now the difference between the two equations is that if we put a (+) on both
sides of the first equations, it will become some what like the second. In the
same manner if we use (-) in the second equation, it will turn into the first one.
Memory techniques can help you recognize such differences. You can
connect it to the knowledge of your subject. We can not drink bourn vita alone
without milk, in the same way we can not use memory technique at the place
of the subject itself but along with it.
Now let us see another example:
Sin 3 A = 3 Sin A 4 Sin3 A
Cos 3A = 4 Cos3 A 3 Cos A
There is a hair line difference in these two equations. You can get confused
Sin 3 A = 3 Sin A or 4 Sin3 A. If you memorise the first equation properly the
second one become automatically clear because the students of mathematics
know that in these formulae Sin and Cos equation are reverse. We shall make
use of some codes.
202
3 = m (Kalia Method)
A=A
3A = MA
3 - Heart (Shape method)
Sin- Sushmita Sen
Memory Picture: Sushmita Sens mother is gifting her heart shaped balloon.
In this way you will recall Sin 3 A = 3 Sin A. Then you will remember the
equation that goes with it and you will have no problem in the next equation.
Now let us take a formula of physics:
C
F32 =
=
100
180
R
8
= K-273

If you are thinking that memory techniques will help you remember the
entire equation then you are mistaken because with the help of this technique
you are only recognizing only those parts which lead to confusion. For example
F-32 can be confusing.

FMN = FeMiNa

In this manner, all the landmarks dotting the way from your school to your
house will be clearly etched in your memory. You can take the help of these
stops or landmarks of this journey to memorise long questions or their specific
portions. For example:
Q: Brahmsamaj was established by Raja Ram Mohan Roy. Describe the social
reforms carried out by him.
There are 6 points in the answer. Now relate these points to the landmarks
or stopovers of your journey and understand them clearly.
1. Brahmsamaj propagates belief in one omnipotent God.
You first stopover: School.
Memory Picture: In school, we are taught to pray to One God.
2. Brahmsamaj condemned Sati System, Child marriage, human and animal
sacrifice and superstitions.
Your next landmark is: Gate.
Memory Picture: Imagine that outside the school gate Sati, child marriages
are taking place and Raja Ram Mohan Roy is protesting against them.
3. Brahmsamaj condemned the caste-system.
Third landmark-Bus Stand
Memory Picture: The bus stand is also divided on the basis of caste. People
have queued up separately according to their castes. Raja Ram Mohan Roy
comes there and counsels the people to unite.
4. Brahmsamaj condemned rituals propagated by temple priests.
Your next landmarks Bus.
212
Memory Picture: Imagine that the priests in the bus are busy with some
rituals and Raja Ram Mohan Roy is telling them not to do so.
5. Brahmsamaj has 124 centres all over India.
Next landmark- Red Light.
Memory Picture: Apply the Kalia method and convert 124 into DNR. This
gives us a familiar word- Dinner. Now you can easily create a Memory Picture. Imagine that everyone is having dinner at the red light.
6. Brahmsamaj condemned idol-worship.
Your next landmark- Market.
Memory Picture: Imagine that people are indulging in idol-worship in the
market. Raja Ram Mohan Roy comes and tells them that God is one and he
lives in us. So idol- worship is wrong.
See how the main points of an answer can be connected to different landmarks of your journey. You can imagine any place or town that you know well.
Now let us see what you have learnt.
