Back...

It's been a long time since I've made a real post on this blog. Of course there have been a few twitter feeds now and then, but those were accidental. As most posts on most blogs say, I will try to be more regular with posting on this blog now :)

A quick update - my dad had a bypass surgery in march and has recovered well, i've resigned from suzlon and will be out it on 31st May, the world seems to be going as planned towards its end in 2012, am still a happy bachelor...

I tried to play a bit with the theme of this blog, and changing it deleted the looong list of books that I had read. I wish I had preserved that list somewhere, coz now I don't remember what books I've read :(. What a waste!

My last week in Suzlon has so far been one of the most heavily loaded weeks I've had here. I hope I'll have a memorable farewell party at the end of it!

Chalo then, see you again. Do visit this blog more often now, and read whatever I write. And please comment, and all your dreams will come true. Thanks!

The 'Nasadiya' verse in the Rig Veda

There was neither non-existence nor existence then ... There was neither death nor immortality then. There was no distinguishing sign of night nor of day ... Who really knows? ... The gods came afterwards, with the creation of this universe. Who then knows whence it has arisen?

Nishkaam Karma

The nearer the goal, or the more visible it is, the more are we motivated to slog for it... If that's true (is it?), then how practical is the philosophy of nishkaam karma to follow in real Life?

First Mobile Post

Hi all. Posting after a long time. This is my first post from my mobile. I've become a huge fan of mobile internet and mobile apps. I've almost stopped using my laptop, sticking only to what's doable from a mobile phone (except when I'm in office, of course, where I've no option but to break my head with my beautiful desktop). Anything that's not feasible on my mobile, fails to push me beyond my laziness threshold. Besides, computers - laptop or desktop - seem like turnoffs now.
Addicted to Opera Mini and Nimbuzz these days. I strongly recommend these two apps. They rock!

Art

One very interesting thing about works of art is that you never know while creating whether people will like it or not, but being your creation, you love it very deeply. I guess it's human to crave for acceptability but then you also crave for a chance and means to express yourself, in ways you find most convenient and feel most comfortable with. But artists are not often good marketers, although they realize the sad reality that they need to stand with their art in the market and sell themselves to be allowed more opportunities from life to create, which to them is the only thing that makes sense in their lives.
