Remember one thing.
If we started work believing whole heartedly...
We should not step out of our aim in any case, even when others insult you...
Winning gives victory and losing gives experience.
Compared to victory, experience is extremely great.
Hi everyone! This is Vikram Aditya and welcome to my channel.
Today we are going to start a new series in my channel.
Name of the series is... Great heroes
In every session of this series, we will select a great hero...
We will know the thoughts in their life journey and the effects.
The selected hero of this session is Thomas Alva Edison.
It seems many of us are questioning self, many times.
First is, who am I?
For me, I denote my thoughts.
From thoughts actions will come.
If thoughts and actions are in the right direction, then the result will be in perfect proportion.
Actions do come from thoughts.
If thoughts and actions are in the right direction, then the result will be in perfect proportion.
Every human would take birth and would also die.
But the thought of great heroes would live forever even after their death.
I was inspired by a good thought said by a great man.
I used to remember that thought many times. That thought is...
A person will come across 3 things, who tries to invent something new in this world.
Those things are... 1 is insult.
When we started to do something new, people around us will insult on our thought.
Have you come from heaven? Will you do the work that no one could do?
Are you great amongst us?
We saw many people like you! In this way, they do insult us.
The second one is doubt.
When we are trying to achieve our goal without dropping our confidence...
It seems he would do what he told, will he do it? They create such doubt on us.
And the third one is... Appreciation.
People, who had insulted and doubted will appreciate us only after we reach our goal.
They come to us with newly sprouted affection.
That day everyone would look for our friendship and try to talk with us.
The same thing has taken place in the life of Thomas Alva Edison.
99.99% of the people does not know about Thomas Alva Edison except as the inventor of Bulb.
The greatness of Thomas Alva Edison is...
Each and every facility that we are having today was invented by Thomas Alva Edison.
To know what it is... Let us start his life journey.
Thomas Alva Edison was the seventh son of Samuel Edison and they were very poor.
He was very curious from his childhood.
He wanted to know the process and working of everything.
If someone gives us something to eat, we just want to eat it.
But Thomas Alva Edison wanted to know the process of making it.
Edison preferred to questioning more than reading.
One day the teacher of Edison took him to his house...
And said, your son is not able to study. So do not send him to school from now.
Mother of Edison told her as the answer, that...
You are not able to teach him and stopped sending him to the school.
He did not join in any other school.
Later his mother herself taught Edison to read and write.
Edison wrote in his autobiography...
If there is a purpose of my life, it is nothing but my mother.
I was created by my mother.
My mother had trusted me a lot and I decided not to fool her.
So that I was before you as Thomas Alva Edison... This was written by him.
As he was from poor family, he entered in to business at the age of 12.
He used to sell chocolates and newspapers in the train.
He published the Grand trunk herald newspaper on his own...
and used to sell it in the train at the age of 14 which is of single page.
He used to publish all the gossips, business statistics, philosophy and politics.
This was just one kind of activity.
He went to the public library at the age of 16...
He understood working of Telegraph signals only by reading books and invented Stock ticker machine.
He went to many people to sell it, but no one had encouraged him.
Finally he was successful.
One top most company bought that Machine for 10,000 dollars those days.
With that money, Edison has set up his own laboratory.
Edison called his colleagues and told that...
He is going to invent a machine which would record and play back our voice.
Every one stared at him like he was mad.
Then he invented the Phonograph.
Then it has turned into gramophone, tape recorder and now iPod.
Thomas Alva Edison was the inventor of the music which we are enjoying today.
With that, total world came to know about Thomas Alva Edison
Then Edison gave another statement, which was...
He announced that he will do a small invention every month...
A major invention for every 6 months.
Again he caught with the insult.
There were gas lights in those days.
He thought to invent a bulb as an alternative and also at low cost.
He lighted up all the lives. He invented the long lasting electric bulb.
Even now we are living in the lighting of that bulb.
Sometimes I feel that... Sun is the bulb created by God, but gives light only for 12 hours.
But the bulb invented by Edison will give the light for 24 hours.
So who is great here?
But again we feel that Edison was also created by God, right?
Edison gave another statement immediately after inventing the bulb.
He said that he will also invent the DC, Direct Current...
the cheap electricity required to light up these bulbs at your home.
It is said as the cheap electricity than that of the candles bought by the rich people...
The poor people would use the electricity.
It means, electricity is cheaper than candles.
At that time he boiled water using the coal and produced the steam...
He produced the electricity by running the generators with that steam.
So imagine one day, just 24 hours without power.
Placing all the photos taken in different positions on a strip...
By moving 24 photos in a second, those photos look like the moving objects.
Using this principle he invented Motion Picture Camera.
Even now, we are using those cameras in making movies.
Fans of each and every celebrity from movies are the fans of Thomas Alva Edison.
Established the Edison Film Studio and made 1200 motion pictures.
The barrel of our cars was invented by Thomas Alva Edison.
Fluoroscope used in X-ray was invented by Thomas Alva Edison.
Many think that Edison has invented only Bulb.
But in order to light a bulb, he made 360 new inventions.
He invented conductors, switches, generators, sockets, resistors and so on...
So the bulb was lighted up only after the 360 inventions that took place.
Edison never slept more than 4-5 hours.
Do you know the difference between persons who sleep for 6 hours and 12 hours?
Even their date of birth and date of death are same...
It was that the person who slept for 6 hours has lived 25 years more.
So in order to have an extended life time, sleep as per the requirement.
Edison has failed 10,000 times before inventing the first bulb.
When a journalist asked him what was his feeling being failed for 10,000 times...
He said that you only know how to make a bulb and that too I myself said it to you.
Only I would know, 10,000 ways... how the bulb cannot be made.
What a great positivity!
Who can give the better definition than this for positivity!
Edison died of Diabetes.
If he had lived 20 years more...
He would have given us future Technology 200 years before.
The night he died, people all over the world lit up the bulbs out of their house and focused them towards the sky.
They thanked him that way.
Edison sir, we salute you!
