Write it when you feel it!

 There are innumerous topics a school teaches, subjects a child can pick and even kids can become programming wizards sitting at home now. But how many schools or teachers are ready to teach a kid how to live? What is required in this country to be a responsible citizen? Can we have one such school or college which teaches how to behave in a community?, how to be a socially responsible citizen?, how to love and respect all alike? And above all without mixing religion to it! Such a system can add value to the future generations to make them less money minded but more people minded. Nothing can be undone now and we are a result of factory ready workhorse as a by product of industrial revolution and world war led education system. 

From the world of "work is worship!" and "quality is the pride of workmanship", to all I want is $$$$. This has been quite a transformation that our little world had gone through ever since the uninvited arrival of COVID-19 pandemic.  I can imagine many faces that is already covered with frown reading my above statement. Often getting mistaken as judgmental or too eager to deduce something without concrete facts laid out. How much ever I would like not to disappoint you, I am afraid I might end up doing the thoroughly anticipated act of disappointing you.  What do we need to build a career? Is it a combination of money, position, role, consistent growth, vision, mentoring and future prospects? Or just money? The world has come to a state where we believe its just money that matters and rest all will come along with that. We have learned innumerous moral stories which teaches us what is need and how different it is with greed.  As we grew older we have also learned t

Life at some point brings back to us the flashes of mistakes we did. The day those starts haunting you, you will start seeing you as an antagonist against the protagonist, that you had been conveniently playing in the lives around you. A crushed dream, a broken heart, a swollen bone, a happy moment, a lost comrade, it all becomes stories at some point in life. Is that the point which brings back the flashes of mistakes we did? A human life in this planet Earth where most of my readers are from is becoming very predictable with a life starting with studies to jobs to marriage/property/assets to kids to grandkids to EOL(End Of Life). Most of us wants to be alive to continue one stage of this life and reach the next. What we often miss in the grand plan is what most project plans include without doubt a retrospective. How many of us can face us in this retrospective meeting with our own souls or conscious mind? Mostly none! We all rebel in our teenage and dream of being different,

That day unlike any other day had its evident  strangeness from the time I opened my eyes. The sun was reluctant to come out and wish early beings their good morning. The radio jockey had reached his station late than usual which led to prolonged bhakti songs. As expected Indian railways ran all their morning trains more late than their previous best. Newspaper had not arrived as for the  thunderous showers that Bangalore city received the entire night. The rain itself was unwelcome and erratic presenting itself on a freezer chilled winter night. Our house maid was surprisingly early as some other patrons were out of town. And above all my son was awake before me. I should have read the signs but as a stock market analyst, I was only trained to read the pattern post-facto.  My own financial consulting company had just started to take baby steps along with my one year old son. I was the proud dad watching them move their tiny feet together with grit. The indexes had not shown a red arro

The belief in astrology had reached new heights in recent years with movie industry leading the pack of devotees. Some of the religious trusts had also started fund management across your birth and rebirth covering multiple lifetimes in case you believe in rebirth. World had seen its best ever human killer virus too in recent Months. Some of our experts in the subject matter of pandemic also told us that it repeats every hundred years. I am quite intrigued to know that be it religious predictions, stock market trends, virus occurrence patterns or be it your own expense expectations, it all seems to be post-facto. If there were really that much depth in the subject available, where are those preventive actions? Most of you in India would have noticed that you visit any astrologer, no one would ever say all your doshas or sins are forgiven, be it star alignment or from your bad deeds. Infact you need to keep doing what you have to do if you don't wish to be disturbed by otherwise nau

Are we thinking enough? Thinking is what most of us can ever do considering action being a premium commodity. Role of opposition parties are always to oppose and provide healthy criticism to the ruling parties in most of the democracies around the world. Isn't it time to think of some additional responsibilities to the opposition parties? Are we always the opposition party when it comes to our country whoever rules us. Be it our favorite political party or a dictator? At times we have to accept that the very nature of us earth citizens are to oppose.

How it begins and how it ends is verifiable in all the beings of this planet. Many a seed is sowed into the womb of this earth with it. The journey starts in the pair and beyond despair for the need to defeat the death before it arrives looking for us. The care that is given to each planted seed is yon comparison. The mother earth nourishes it with its life and works on ensuring that it sees the sun when time arises. All the pabulum is given wishing for a strong start the moment it sets foot in this ground and nothing short that humans do to each of their offspring.   The moment an embryo is formed the rich n affluent and poor and destitute 

Save Planet Earth The favorite caption of this decade - 'Go green. We are all dutiful citizens working hard to save this planet. We all feel like Marvel comic hero when we do cycling a day, switch to jute bags from plastic bags and many more such disaster averting daring fights to convince our brain. What are we really saving? Are we all tiny organisms of this planet good enough to save Earth? We might have bought into the idea of every drop counts but applying in the wrong context without knowing the relevance. Even though we are taught that mother Earth is ever caring, ever accommodating and always forgiving as our own dear moms, reality is we know Earth churns up its own tsunamis, volcanos and storms while melting the ice in love. We do know that this self purifying work by our own mother Earth can eradicate the egoistic, control laundering humanity from the planet. We are in reality afraid that smarter and deserving organisms will thrive if Earth takes care of itself which we
