Music Of Life !!!

Well what is this I am writing today ? Well is it about something about someone or something , I don’t know but then I am writing this because maybe I have never felt like this before, why I am writing this Blog, well I just live and love writing and I believe that’s the only way through which I can express myself and I have always done that. Blogged a lot, people will never understand my blogs, because some find it very tough to grasp what I write, some say that I have very deep meanings in my blog and what I have to say to them is BullShit!!! My blogs are just BullShit , I have never written a blog which really had a true meaning a meaning which I have always wanted. I know that I am no altruist though I may pretend to be one , but then I know that I hate every individual around me, not because they are there existing , because they try to get a difference in my life by one of their acts and that’s what I hate to see and feel. I hate to change, I don't believe that change is something which is required for a person. Why does a person love anyone? Its not a compulsion, no its just that someone invented this word and then he said that he discovered the feeling. Why is that being close to someone and the so called feeling of caring and all the things the so called people do is called love. What if I say its all about building a hate for each other . Hate why Hate , because its all about asking something from each other in return , yes its all about asking something in return . Think about it , why do you love your parents its all about that you need them. Why do you need them , yes of course , you need them , you needed them every moment, if you did not have them , their education then you would have been even worst than a stray dog. Why a stray dog why did I compare you with a stray dog, its because , a stray dog can go wherever he wants and eat whatever he wants but you cannot ,you are not made up of that system. The place and the genes from where you are built would not permit that thing to go inside you and you would become even worst than a stray dog. This is not again targeting someone, but its just too personal. I am not reading again what I have written, neither I am going to check the grammar or the words spelling what I have used in this blog so, its like I am just writing, why am I talking to myself Just too frustrated !! Frustrated!! Frustrated of what , frustrated of every fucking thing around me , the way the people behave the way they try to intrude in my life , (aahhhh someone stop this music around ) the way they try to make a difference in your life.. What I am doing thought about studying but end up writing something , why did I end up by starting to write up again ? That’s just a mere frustration of myself. This time of the year I don’t realize what’s happening? People say History repeats what is History a mere illusions of the memories? What are memories a certain flash back of time , and what are those certain flash back of time , nothing but a pure way of loosing your self where you don’t know what are you living for in the present that you have to go back in time, to find yourself and help you to come out of the present. What is Past Present and Future. Physics !!! Physics of what ? Physics of Time ! Yes its all about the Physics of time ? How do you define Time ? Is it the clicking of the clock , those small sound you hear , of the clock ticking away ? That ticking, technology has taken away and what you hear is not the ticking but you see the clock moving!!! Time is just a mere true expression of your life, when gone never comes back and what I believe is that you should never try to let it come back maybe that’s is why I don’t keep the promises which I keep , but then If it comes to the promises then why cant I forget all the flashbacks, why cant I prevent it from coming to my mind and then let them hallucinate them and cause a Catastrophe in ymy life. Ok I have an excuse here also , lets say that we haven taken an exam, the exam is gone , gone back lost somewhere in time, but then what happens is that you get your result and what the hell is that result it gets you back to that time. I hate taking favors because I believe that its also very much similar to those exams where in what happens is that, those favors are the same as exams , where in you may get the results of those favors when you are not supposed to expect those results and what you find yourself is that you are just too obliged to give them the signatures of yours receiving the result. The whole community is about altruist being together, but within everyone there is an egoistic person residing where in they expect you to accept the result and they expect you to be obliged to accept the result. Why I am writing this is just to try to explain myself that its very tough for me to forget those pasts but then I have to forget everything , and be focused not to listen to others, there are thousands instrument used in an Orchestra, but then it has to be that one voice or the instrument which is to be recognized, that sound which lets you ignore the complete other instruments, the sound where in you may start expecting it to come again , that sound which makes you focused about trying to capture the very first time it gets played again and you start listening to it , even though its repeated you forget what was the last time it was played and you experience its freshness every time it is played or repeated in the orchestra , and that is the sound of your self the sound of yourself. Making you more focused and egoistic. This is Important !! You know that certain things are not the end, even a small distortion should not effect that sound, its too perfect to be out of your mind !! So what are you waiting for, what are you reading? What is written here is just bull shit, its just crap !! Its all about explaining what I am going through and what I have felt at times when that has happened ? What is the use ? There is no use ? Its just gone ? But then this post is for me and supposed to last !! My favorite post to last because, its to make me feel and understand that its not what I am and have become, its to make me realize that I should not let that sound get lost in the various distortions of the pathetic, horrible, paranoid, annoying and worth abhorring MUSIC OF LIFE !!!

My quest for nothing!

Where am I heading for? This is a question which is cropping in my mind since a long time. What do I need in life? What is life? Why was I born? How am I supposed to define myself? So many questions... Can someone help me to answer it? I learned speaking from the surrounding, why I cannot take up other things from surrounding. I never learned how to drive a car. My father bought a car a long time back and I was always a silent observer sitting at the back watching every maneuver. First it was confusing, but then I took it looking at the speedometer how his hands changed the gear. I knew it was 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. But then when to change was something absurd, after continuous watching, one day I surprised them and everyone in my surrounding, by driving the so called FIAT. Once I realized the pain my father had in reversing the car, as we had a huge path say 50 Meter long and few meters wide, where he had to reverse the car. Then one morning I took the keys and tried to reverse the car , and to everyone surprise I did it and then we had an exact of 4 fiat cars in my apartment and all of them tried doing it , but never could and ultimately I helped them a lot many time. Well I knew that time that it was not that change happened unknowingly, but then it was like it was followed. Someone did it and then there is someone else follows it. If everyone follows it, it becomes a trend. I do have seen some most stupid guys following something which is really absurd and makes no sense. Like the same place some one bought a huge jeep and he tried to reverse it there at the small place, and he got himself stuck. A nearly bumper to bumper with a wall. I bet if I had a video camera I would have shot it. My quest is also something the same, I am trying to follow to many people at the same time. Trying to avoid their foolish activities and trying to emulate them. Maybe this is a reason why I took up engineering. Maybe I wanted to emulate few of my relatives who boasted themselves to be engineer. What is now that I have to do? Who invented IT, who invented journalism, who invented Marketing, who coined these terms? Can’t I be one who will coin a term, that would become a trend and I would be unique? Well is it not that I am following these people who invented these terms. Am I not following the trend of inventing? Then what should I follow.... Nothing............

Funda Of Life ( From My Previous Blog )

To decide if you believe the thousands of people who have seen life. ... Have you seen life or had an encounter with life?
It opens the door to a very serious definition of life as we know it... do we know it ... Ah come on .. its all an illusion . an illusion which is very deceptive . Life is very short. Man is a traveler and Along the way he encounters and learn to distinguish between life and death ... Life is a circular, not a linear process ( Once said by a Great Buddhist monk ) ; but has anyone tried to express in the form of a polynomial where every expression can have its own meaning . how can some one say life is a circular process. Its a process which has an equation , whose limits tends to infinity . Every physician or a mathematical can has his own equation of life . Some great physician can describe life as a sin-u - sdel wave with ups and downs in his life . Some mathematician would love representing it with some curve where he is sure that it lies in a particular quadrant . Well well well ....... How will you define life ... If you want you can read my next blog where maybe i can define life in my sense of the So CALLED FUNDA .. 'FUNDA' is a word which has been associated with me since a long time ............................ Even this is Funda........

Don't expect me to stay ( From my previous Blog )

When you're one of the few to land on your feet! What do you do to make ends meet? Your dreams are limited , but we still have to go to the dreamed of world !! Mighty waves come crashing down, The spray is lashing high into our eyes, but then there is more to come in from these dizzy heights !! And if you survive 8 , there will be people who will be breathing in , but you have to breathe out to reach those hieghts !!! Lets make to those heights , where they say that there are diamonds but i am looking for thrills !! I don't care if we get there on time.Everybody's searching for something, they say.I'll get my kicks on the way.Over mountains, across seas,Who knows what will be waiting for me?I could sail forever to strange sounding names.Faces of people and places don't change.All I have to do is just close my eyes, To see the seagulls wheeling on those far distant skies.All I want to tell you,All I want to say is count me in on the journey.Don't expect me to stay.

Politika ( This is from my previous Blog )

Suddenly i realize today about the reservations system, or i should say that I am realizing about the complete system. Politics is killing us man! Politics a strong word, was conceived by as some people say, by the great, Chankaya and some people say, by some Greek. Though this word had its name derived from the Greek word 'Polis'. Have i understood the dirt of politics? Am i waking up? What is happening? Where is the spark? What about me going in for agitations. Is it that my responsibilities have eaten the half part of me? Media brought a lot of things out, but then where do we all stand. India a secular country! How is secularism being hit? India a Democratic country! How? Well we have all been learning since our school days about the preamble …JUSTICE LIBERTY EQUALITY FRATERNITY... We resolve to const India in to Socialist, Secular, and Democratic Republic. When we are trying to do this, what we get in return, Lathes... Is it that we are trying to go to the Mahatma Gandhi's way of achieving independence? I still am in a state of dilemma, Reservations for what, Taxes for what? Politics!! Me working for what? Me, Struggling for what? Politics! Let’s take an example here, India going into Globalization, is this the right time to think about reservations. Few years back when BJP was in power, they tried to reduce the fees of IIMS, well what is happening, do they want to capture themselves into every sector of ours. This is something really strange. Whom are we living for, have we ever tried to just sit down and think and analyze. What are we doing, are we gaining something out of it? Well give a thought to it. Maybe i will be giving that a thought today. Let’s get to the other part of it, i go with my best counterpart somewhere, and there is a small argument with someone, and i shrug, what if that person has political or police contact! Why politics first? There is something really weir happening in this country. Can someone relate this: Stocks Market falls, India Looses, Finance Minister Says "RISE" and Stock Market Rises? Politics? My head is spinning!! Is yours too........ Give it a thought

A Drive in the Night

Pretty Strange, Walking down the road at 2:30 AM in the night all confused and lost though not drunk , I was just amazed at the city. Just tried comparing life with the long road, and was amazed to notice that life is just the same as the road. All the Lamp posts as if people trying to lighten up a certain distance of the life and then need some one else to lighten up that portion of the life. Are we so dependent on other people that we need other people in our life. Faced so many jobs interview and was amazed to notice that , the most common question asked was not Polymorphism or MultiThreading but Can you Work in a Team ?
What is a team , and why do you need a team , cant you do something all alone, well am amazed to notice that no person, in this world is not dependent on other. Thinking about Howard Roark , in fountainhead, even he needed Dominique when he needed to destroy Cortlandt. Well why am i writing this? Today being Christmas, just went back to the memory lane back into 2003 Christmas, it was all a girl and me together in a small restaurant in a small town where my college was, with a few of my batch mates around and what i was doing there at that place is what I don't know , but then I was there, sitting with her laughing. Suddenly all seems to be all lost, just a lamp post on my way which may have lighted a part of this distance, and suddenly never ever to visit the lamp post again. Today again I have this strange feeling of loosing a lamp post I don't know what?
Its all a very strange thing, when I went for the lunch ( normally I don't ) , but then as I wanted solitude all around me there was a wasp of people all around, murmuring in some strange language, and looking at them it made a clear impression of what they were, suddenly I got up to share the seat ( the seat there usually permit 4 people to sit ) , and 4 people came and sat there, just out of guts I told the 4th person to get up and find him a place as I was sitting there from before and half the junk people turned around to see me , out of anger or whatever. Well as I sat, it was all again back to the Lemon Pepper Salt and Onion , people looking at me, but I not bothered and people kept on looking, suddenly out of curiosity asked someone who are you and got the answer what i expected. Suddenly realized that those days are not far, where this country will be ruled by those set of people, who will not only have education , but have education without knowledge, the country ruled by people of Negatives Merit. A country where in I compared the roads of a city with my life, and the lamp posts with the people very close to me , those lamp posts never to be lightened again , because of the negativity into this county of ours.

The English Patient

Just completed The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje. Though have not read, its predecessor, In the Skin of Lion, from where the characters of Hana and Caravaggio has come, the novel is all about the Burned Man. A perfect and a genius way to plot the story, where in the novelist definitely try to take you from the Italian Villa to the Sahara, and this I really loved. The expression to describe the feel of Dryness in the villa and the desert to the wetness of the Oasis in the Desert and the Fountain in the villa is just impeccable. Characters though many have been introduced, substantially only 4 characters, are there around whom the Novel revolves

1. Hana

2. The English Patient

3. Caravaggio

4. Kip

Kip out of the place is an Indian Sikh, where maybe the author has tried to show some pity on the Indian condition during the colonial times. A novel trying to show, hatred but love, emotions but hardness. Tried to amalgamate the Luxuriant land of northern India, with the 5 river names i had long forgotten, (let me see can i write them again here) Ravi , Jhelum, Beas, Chenab, Sutlej(No need to google).

The novel doesn’t seem to get you that musty feeling like the other war novels, where in you just read about the mutinous people, who are jaded by the war and think that everything which the war has brought into is irreparable, though the lastly mention of the Atom Bombs, have tried to get that, but the ironical way it has been put up shows the way you can abhor the west to treat the eastern country like that.

The perennial love story of the English Patient has not to be missed here, which was precocious though the same when compared to the Kip's Love story, Kips story was very preposterous and obtuse.

At sometime it may though seem to be a pell-mell, but then over all, the book is very peremptory leaving the reader no chance but to complete the same.

In the Government Now

In the Govt now ( This is my modified version of the Song in the Army now - Status Quo )

A vacation in the Mumbai land
Joy does the best he can
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Now you remember what the old man said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

You be the hero of the FAMILYhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Hand flying over your keyboard
Word flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the Shift now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Trains pass out in the dead of night
The boss calls (stand up and fight)
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

You've got your orders better work on sight
Your finger's on the keyboard
But it don't seem right
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now
You're in the Government now
Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

Oh, oh, you're in the Government now

CATASTROPHE

100 ... 150 ... 200 ... Woooooooosssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh 75 .

"75 Questions 300 marks, IIM sealed Qualtiy, 4 marks each question 1 mark for wrong answers each section has 25 question"

This is what was expected when a neat packet of white crisped bonded sealed pack of polythene was given to the person at the cost of 1200 INR. On opening, the quality of 2/3 of the product was below the par and then further even after 10 minutes of solving the 2 parts of the 2/3 parts, it was just anomalous. The paper was completely malnourished with no intergradient of intelligence in either of the two section whether DI or Quant, and was amalgamated with a tinge of adulteration, which are as listed:

Set 111

QA

Q 56: In Set 111 and Set 333, instead of “September: 8” it should be

September: 28”

Although the same question in Set 222, 444 printed it correctly

Q 59: Correct Answer should be 15 Kg, which does not appear among the option

Choices.

Set 444

VA

Q 30: There are only 3 choices instead of 5

Option (3) is incomplete

Two questions, which were worth 10 marks, will this be a reason for a catastrophe in a student's life. Is it again the time for a CAT Retest? What do you think? Is it not that 10 marks in this exam will cause a lot of difference. As per the different institutes reporting different cutoffs is it not that the students who spent the time in solving the above problems will suffer. Think about set 444 where only 3 options were printed.

I believe, CAT Authority will definitely have a say on that, wherein they will say that ,they have the right to ignore any questions, so what about this take of mine, "Let them scrap off the DI and Maths Section and only give calls on the basis of the English Section". This is to tell the people around here that this bumptious behavior of IIM will just not be tolerated; this cannot put the aspirants off. This blow of the IIMS would have caused a concussion, concussion to the minds of the student, yes we all agree, but can it put us into a state of condolence, condolence for what? Condolence to ourselves! Should this thing be condoned? I don’t think so; my take on this is that, a congenial explanation and a solution should be provided for this. What i think is that any decision should not leave anyone in a peculiar predicament. I am not demanding a full restitution for this but want to question in the end only on this "Was it not required by the IIMS to show great prescience in setting the paper and just checking the same before it was sent out".

I have lost my Tranquility!!!

Lage Raho India

A very strong word which came into the existence suddenly after a movie called Munna bhai was released was ‘Gandhigiri’, never saw the movie completely but then remember one part of the movie where Gandhi comes in and talks to the famous hero of the Bollywood (India’s Hollywood) Sanjay Dutt. A scene from the movie which came into my mind after a statue of Bhim Rao Ambedkar was allegedly found vandalized in Kanpur was when Gandhi's Statue was also vandalized and Gandhi himself asks to bring down and tear off all the statues and his photos, not because he does not want them, but where in just the opposite he wants to be remembered always, not when someone sees his statues or photographs.
Well there are many question which could be debated on, but the last two incidents of violence due to the vandalizing of two statues first of Mita Thackery (wife of Bal Thackery ) and yesterday of Bhim Rao Ambedkar has brought me into a state of dilemma. Several incidence of violence have been reported in the different part of the country and people are trying to find out the culprits. Then was this the right way to show the sentiments. Burning of train and causing harm to the public property is just not and should not be accepted, and those who commit this atrocity should be definitely tried and punished.
A famous celebrity or an Entrepreneur whatever you call him, commented once after the famous Mandal Case, " India is the only place in the world where you fight to be of a backward class”, even though this was talked about a lot in the media, one thing which was not debated was that how come a person who is supposed to rule the world in one field, be so much into the class system.Is this a new division of the country? For ages India has been divided, and this division is not on the basis of any religion, but its on the basis of one word which has always haunted India, starting from the early evolution of the mankind (a famous story of the same in Ramayana, where in there is an old lady called Shabri who was a Shudra) and that is ‘Castism. Ok before going more into this let me take you through some basics. Through ages India has been divided into the following 4 categories:
The first is Brahmin. The Learned, professors, priests…
The Second is the Kshtriyas: The warriors, soldiers, and protectors…
The third is the Vaishyas: the Commercial community, shopkeepers, and traders…
The fourth is the Shudras: The working community, those who serve the first three
What we have not understood is that, even after such a long time, Globally no one is categorized into these categories. In India immigrants (whatever this maybe defined as if people are coming to South from North, Or West to East, the people migrating have been called immigrants) have always been successfully assimilated into different communities, and this is what they should understand. We have always commiserated with them and what we don’t understand is that, we have been continuously accused of consistently and callously ill-treating them.
Clemency is one part, which has been the weakness of India and there are always few people who are just Cankers in the society. These cankers even though they maybe passionate about whatever they do, they are never cloying or sentimental. What I would call them is Insane. Points to be assimilated and thought over at this moment is that rather than giving a boisterous welcome to such an incident, we should drive on these incidents with a blithe disregard for the different intentions of the culprit. There are always certain people in the different communities who take a sadistic pleasure in doing things which tend to attenuate the peace of the society, but if the people stop being so sanctimonious, then no wonder this would has a salutary effect upon the peace of the society.

CAT-O-MANIA

With the D-Day approaching fast and me one of those 1.9 Lakh people competing with the others this is really getting on my nerve. Have already had two nightmares on the same. Hope the worst is getting over. Well is it getting over or the worst is yet to come?
No one knows what is in the books for the D-Day, people are speculating about what may be the pattern etc. Do I have a take in it? Yes I also have a take in it , believing that there will be something like less questions and 5 choices with the last choice being non of the above. This would not only make the 2.5 hours coming to thorough problem solving with no other choice left for the student. Am i trying to descry? To be honest yes, definitely no one knows what will be the pattern and would it leave the student derelict or not let that be a guess.
After a sort of exhaustive studies and last few days of midnight oil burning, we all know even that may not be sufficient for the D-Day, oops that’s the height of being pessimistic, better to be one, with the exam like CAT I believe to be at a height of being pessimistic, rather than going there with a hardcore confidence and screwing up everything for your good. People say that CAT is nothing exorbitant, but then if that is the case then why are the students at IIM treated the same way the CAT is thought about? Why are people out of the same place, placed at a high cadre when compared with the others? Maybe I can answer them if ever I am there..........................

My Immaculate Dream

Have I ever been maudlin? Did someone make me maudlin about someone? Did anyone make my sight nebulous? Well what I am writing here is idiosyncratic.
It was just a fatal attraction which was holding me really fast. Beauty which was, ineluctable. The first time when I met, for me it was an enigma of whether it is an encounter with an entity or a paragon of God? An individual, who is not bourgeois but hates bouillon,. A simple but an ambitious entity. Embedded with Anger which is virulent and something which can obliterate anything on the way, and can repudiate anyone in the next second.

As a child to the Parents , the child has been given by God a scourge , which could have led to a secession , but then it has never been a withdrawal , though there are revulsion, which is inevitable in the present case, the feelings have been an abysmal of emotions, but still no sign of renunciation. In this case the child is just an Amazon.

A thaumaturgist, because of the entity theosophy, with a voice like timbre, for me everything is immaculate about that entity. With stamina indefatigable, there are times when the entity has been really iniquitous though innocuous. Anyone would be forced to genuflect in front of that Entity. A breath which is Aromatic and an attitude which is assiduous. Whenever that Entity is around its all so concurrent. Everything around seems so disputatious, but docile.

Well this is all I can say about the Individual. My vocab for adjectives end here. I just hate to be estranged from that entity.

Is the Pen Still Mightier than Sword?

A loosing battle! A Prez, loosing his grip. A war veteran! What all I cannot say about this person? An idea in the mind, a thought in the brain, love on the tongue, and weapons in the arm. I am talking about the person who has created a history between lines. A line drawn parallel between two words: Control and Fire. But still, only a word comes in my mind when I think of this person Aboriginal. After many abortive attempts to take into the possession of the area further behind the Line of Control, the president comes to the other side with Line of Fire. Its very arduous to be on the side of either of the people , every one is diplomatic now days, but then , what you once portray , it remains in you , and the truth once out can never be hidden. There maybe hundred of counters to the particular truth, and even though the truth maybe a lie in itself, but then it may and will always pave a way open for the other truths which until now were unknown and hidden. These were the ones which never thought about, leave apart being open to the ‘erthzens (my slang for residents of Earth including animal). Coming to the latest to be Best Seller, to be maybe the most Argued and Debated book on the various topics oh, topic concerned to the most 'contra topics of the Decade, this book is here to stay and create a history. More than an Autobiography I believe this book to be a debate among the world's one of the most powerful and the controversial countries of all times.
Let me take an excerpt from the famous newspaper of our times:
"General Musharraf readily accepted our invitation and came to Delhi. But at Agra, during our talks, he took a stand that the violence that was taking place in Jammu and Kashmir could not be described as 'terrorism'. He continued to claim that the bloodshed in the state was nothing but the people's battle for freedom," Vajpayee said.

"At the 2001 Agra summit, I told Vajpayee bluntly that there seems to be someone above the two of us who had the power to overrule us. I also said that today both of use had been humiliated. He sat there, speechless"

Well, did he? Whatever must have been the scenario, Vajpayeeji and the General knows, and to strengthen the statement of the general, Vajpayeeji never cross questioned this in his latest backlash to the president. What the point here is that, is India still trying to be under pressure? Was it justified of Vajpayee not to comment on this when this was portrayed forward by the General? On the counter it was said by the so called ,one of the to be thought most powerful leader of the Indian post Independence Era, that it was 'Fight of Freedom' as portrayed then by the general. But why was it not put out then? Does the citizens of the country not supposed to know by its elected Government the reason for the failure, rather than , the same being brought up by a demagogue (as thought by a million ) in a strident and minatory way.

Well looking at the excepts of the book published in many places of the web, it has shown that though in this age , wars are fought through Nukes etc, today a debate can still be picked up with a pen . What it shows is that India still today is not autonomous, it is being continuously being governed by somebody and that some body is nothing by Money and Egoism and the Governing party here is corruption and ego. This may look something out of context, but then why I would like to get this up here, if we get a chance to look up at a particular page , in the book , where the General tries to Blame the most powerful agency of the world, it has cross fired and have even asked the general to change the required lines or words, on the contrary when half of the book may have been lashed against a nation like India, people here would be sitting in their cozy chairs in the good to be coming winters and praise the either of the two countries after reading the book. Some fledging reviewers may give their views but those would be long forgotten and discarded the same very day.
What I am trying here is not to be choleric, but I want to bring out the crass nature of the writer of the book, where in the issue of Kashmir, which has been in the Climactic issue since over a long time, and deciduous for the neighboring country, has been tried to be pulled ahead again, in a very fallacious manner.

Eklavya Cuts the Head of DronaCharya

"Gurur Brahma Gurur Vishnu Guru Devo Maheswara;Gurur Sakshat Para Brahma Thasmai Sri Gurave Namaha Have we heard of this somewhere. This was my Sloka in my Sanskrit book when I was in my class VI or VII, though i dont remember this exactly. How many of us have really respected their teachers and how many teachers have really respected their students. People will obviously be amazed as to why do we want the Teachers to Respect their Students? Well today a teacher would argue that its tough to get a student life Eklavya.Eklavya ! Who is this Dude? Ok let me take you back thousand of eras back . I dont know how many of you have heard of Mahabharata,a small introduction though is sufficient : "The Mahābhārata (Devanagari: महाभारत), is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being the Rāmāyana. With more than 74,000 verses, plus long prose passages, or some 1.8 million words in total, it is the longest epic poems in the world." - source Wiki. There was a battle fought between the brothers, some justify it as a Battle Between Right and Wrong, and I would justify it as a Battle of Royalty and Kingdom.The two brothers were known as Pandavas and Kauravas, both taught by the greatest Guru (some over speculate this ) , Dronacharya . Eklavya, at that time was from the Lower class (mind you there were no reservations at that time for Backward Class ) , and being from a lower class he was refused to be taught by this famous Guru , and he somehow learned from him though unknown , again as mentioned in this famous Epic, all the learnings were from behind a tree, and since he confessed being taught by Dronacharya himself, dronacharya , asked for his Thumb as a part of GuruDakshina.Eklavya without hesitation cut his thumb.Eklavya at this time knew that without his thumb he can never use Bow and Arrow, and this was the thing which he had mastered, but it was all because of this Guru Request he without hesitation cut away his thumb.Ok , so that was more than an introduction.Coming back to the point , so teachers argue , that its tough to get a student like eklavya , and students argue that there are always thousand of teachers who are ready to ask for a thumb , or are ready to stand against their favourite pupil , for the loyalty to another , maybe greed or whatever. Though dont want to get much into it again , Arjuna was a Pandava, favourite student of Dronacharya,and Dronacharya fought against the Pandavas. Amazing isnt it ! I find it absurd. All these things are bygone days. Bygone days why ? People give various examples, of the past , mentioning that , students have always worshipped the Guru.Even i have mentioned about the same, but then again what about Pandavas killing Dronacharya, and even the hindu worshipped God, Krishna was behind them . So where did the things go wrong? Few days back , I was turning the pages of a Newspaper and saw a column where it was mentioned about few students manhandling few professors, and this resulting in the death of a professor.Yes , I am talking about , Prof H S Sabharwal, who died in Ujjain last week after being allegedly attacked by students. Is this more of a Student-Guru relation which people speculate or is it the play of the Power. This is though a debatable topic, I would definitely tild towards the play of Power here."
Well this is all I wrote a way back . And what is happening now ? Nothing. Where is the Media ? What about the people who were accused ?

A Strange Encounter with a Strange City

May - 1993
I just celebrated my 11th birthday. 2 months have passed, since i have had a strange encounter with a strange city known as BOMBAY. It was the 93' blasts, it was all over the news, and somehow I remembered my first cousins staying in this city. Bombay, which was till that time was not known to me as a Glamour City (to be worth mentioning here that I always thought that the film stars are all from Delhi). Well as I had scanned through the Newspaper, I was a bit shocked. Anyways, who was bothered, with my exams over, we had decided to go to Mumbai for our Vacations, to meet my first cousins. Well here it all started the affection, the attachment with this strange city. Boarding the second class compartment in the scorching heat, made me growl, but the site of the Wheelers (Indian Book Selling Stalls at the Railways Station) made my appetite for the brain (some weird, and real absurd people say I don’t have one), for some comics. This made me forgot the heat and i took the upper seat, forgetting the entire world around me, engrossed in an Enid Blyton Book.
Suddenly the train 'cooed its way, and i was fast asleep. Little did I realize I was about to fall in love at such a tender age with a city which has been a life line of India.

August - 2003
Again that was some where close to the blasts, what the hell? Anyways forgot that , just fresh after the wounds of my Girl Friend ditching me , I was here in this city for no purpose, though strange, I just loved this city , so decided to be here

February - 2004
Fanatically I have been calling my first cousin, to get me a project at any company in Mumbai; anyways i know he will get me one. Will he? God please help me, I need one, and it’s my career ‘ka sawaal’. I am on a train to Mumbai. I have a project. This was the time when I got to explore this city, was introduced to lots of things, this include Drugs etc, and really happy that I was a furlong away from all this. Did my projects have a job here at mumbai, and then suddenly everything went hay wired and is on a flight back to Bangalore. WHY???

Today - 2006
Nothing much happening....Is it!! Oh I have explored half of this dream city and amidst all the major ups and downs. The latest Mumbai Bomb Blast the recent one 7/11, this is still my dream and my favorite city. Roamed half the city 100's of times aimlessly wandering from one station to another, just trying to glimpse the life , visited the biggest shows of India to the biggest Slums of this Continent. Seen people slogging themselves, some earning lakh and then met some earning units. Leaned out of the fast moving trains, been squeezed between people in the trains, and trapped in fully crowded Bus. Walked on cleanest Beaches, which is still unknown to half of the mumbaites’. Chased thieves (No I am not a Police Man), stood in queues to give my blood, what all not, and I still Love this City. Been around those waterlogged areas, suffered the wrath of Shiv Sainiks, walking for few kilometers before I reached my home and I still love this city. Went to the Aazad Maidan, for shouting slogans against the Reservation System, felt a little scared, with police van standing a hand away, but still was confident about my love towards the city.
Why do I still Love this city? Just Check, my next blog…………

An Aroma of Success (This Blog Post is a Waste)

Hahaha! I am laughing because I am writing this without any success, all I have been facing since past few days is failure. Oh maybe I am nostalgic and it’s in the Air somewhere, that I am getting the Aroma of Success. Oh is it that I am Insane, people have called me insane since day one. Oops this is a mystery then as to why I am writing this. Oh a success of convincing people, yes today I was able to convince a person after a long time. Maybe I am getting that air back in my head, my college days. Is it an elegy? Elegy why? Who is dead, our dreams our ambitions.
I am not an assailant I have not assassinated anyone, but yes then I have murdered someone, that someone is my Dream. It’s not a bawl, but then i want to be audible. Why my hard is work not Biennial. Biennial! why? Confused!! Ok let me take you through a small history, we all know we are biped, right! We have been asked to concur over something which we believed never to be true. We have been a sort of Coxswain, whenever dared to get into those storms have been swept away, and ultimately desponded, we get despondent. Oh that’s a bit of confusing! Well ok let me get it straight , Sunday I boarded the train Happy and Gay ( Gay Oops ) , no I don’t mean that Gay , but then its a phrase 'Happy and Gay' thought to get straightened, who knows what people may think !!Suddenly i have this feeling of like what i have done in my life is not useful for me in sense of attaining what I wanted to attain , I just could not do it , and whenever tried to it was all a burning stinking smell of failure with a lot of bad criticism all around.
This is getting a bit of complicated where I am not able to express myself as to what i want to put across. Maybe I am letting out my frustration, thats what I have been doing, studying working like mad since the past few weeks and the results are nothing but an abyss of Failure, me conquering the lows of negatives (yes now i am speaking my mind out), I want things to flow the way I can maybe if I could rebel when i Wanted to against the things the people, everything even the Universe if I think that it is not going my way! Really can i do that but then what will i achieve out of this, I don’t know! Yes I can achieve Aroma of Success!!
This Blog Is a Waste

Just a Little Pin Prick -

Was there to a doctor few days back for a medical checkup and the best part was the Syringe did not seem to scare me , like it has always done before. It was just a little pin prick and there was no more. A full bottle (10 ml) of blood!!
Thinking about this made my memories go back to the picture of 7/11, where there were bottles of blood being taken to the Hospitals, long queues of people there voluntarily to give their blood to the victims. Liters of blood being lost and liters of blood being transferred into the Victims body! A Sikh Blood into a Christian guy and so on. Did they bother about cast or religion? It was all about saving the life. Try and save it! Who is bothered? Was any religion written on the bottles? Why are we then fighting this War? What has made us get into this war? Is it fanaticism? Fanaticism What!! According to philosopher George Santayana, "Fanaticism consists in redoubling your effort when you have forgotten your aim." What is our Aim is it that we wanted to restore peace and calm among the mankind, and we have forgotten it and we are fighting and looking in just the opposite direction. Ok let me get more into it : "The difference between a fan and a fanatic is that while both have an overwhelming liking or interest in a given subject, behavior of a fanatic will be viewed as violating prevailing social norms, while that of a fan will not violate those norms (although is usually considered unusual).(Thorne&Bruner 2006) ""Religious fanaticism - the most extreme form of religious fundamentalism, which typical takes on violent and potentially deadly dimensions." http://www.answers.com/topic/fanaticismIts not to be pointed to a particular community .There were times, when different religious groups have shown this nature and have taken a very extreme form of what we know it as Religious Fundamentalism. There are groups who have talked themselves of being a fundamentalist, but are they really one? This is what is happening, this is the best way I could define it. Coming back to the blasts, what was being tried to be created was a Chaos, Havoc and a Catastrophe. Great leaders talk about eliminating these “Fanatics" or "Fundamentalists" from their roots, but then the point is that; can they ever remove them? This is causing not only confusions, but the reason of hostility when one community tries to meet the other, in the other dominated space. Why are the innocent people targeted over this, is a reason which is still unknown. Some believe it to be a way of creating hatred among themselves, but then we need to know after this hatred spreads, and the people are targeted, the blood flows , and the blood transferred is of the ................... ENEMY. Is it the ENEMY?

Longevity.............

What does longevity mean? Great duration of life! Where does this stand in the dictionary of the people of Mumbai? Is it the Longevity which is defined as an addition of one new day in their life? A Day! How do you define a day? When you see the Next Day morning Sun , or When you see the fan blades rotating at a high speed above your bed on the ceiling, after a tired day's work trying to get or a better word catch some sleep in the noisy environment. A noisy Environment, everywhere! Physically and Mentally! You lie down for a peaceful sleep and suddenly …. The cries of some one ringing in your ears, some one trying to scream loud to you! Some one asking you to save him! Someone begging for a rupee to feed the hungry child on the lap! Someone shouting at you for some silly thing which was not your mistake! All this, and you find yourself in an Asylum, where people are shouting, and then suddenly you hear a mosquito buzzing in you ears. Snap! There is the dead mosquito lying peacefully in his palms .Suddenly there is a silence surrounding, and he can't speak now and he is asleep waiting for the day to end. Waiting for Tomorrow, hoping that he would be again lying tomorrow, with the dead mosquito in his palm, and not as a dead man in the palm of the world or this city.............

Indefatigable

Was there a better word i can think of? Well no!That was a perfect word i could think of , when I tried to define "Mumbai". There are some catastrophes every year, when everyone, start from the political parties, to the citizen, have had no difficulty in incriminating (a strong word) each other. There were a total of 7 blasts ( I am keeping it 7 because I have heard the confirmation from the Gov officials in the news ,of 7 blasts, though media and other say 8 ) . The blast, cast a lugubrious shadow over the evening yesterday. Evening was a maelstrom of emotions, people were confused , trying to reach every near and dear, and thanks to the s ‘spectrum owners’ of our country, where they boast about the various services they have to offer, the various offers, their services ; gets to an abyss of failure during such occasions. Will write more about this, in my next post. The blasts emphasizes two things ‘cowardness’ and pity , cowardness’ of the terrorist and pity on the so called democratic government of the country , which is again " By the people , for the people and AGAINST THE PEOPLE " . This should be sufficient, to express what i want to. The NEWS of the blast brought shivers down the spine, and suddenly the thought of my whole bunch of friend who daily travel through that route, and also not to forget, a person here who means the world to me traveling through the same route, was a paranoid feeling. Suddenly, this thought of them , was an amalgamation of both fear and tension. I was scared to the core, and thanks to the mobile phone I could not reach anyone of them. The news spread like fire on petrol, with speculations, about the places where the blasts took place initially. But within minutes it was clear, which were the places which were hit. And within an hour time, it was for any layman to draw up the conclusion that it was a very well coordinated activity (If anyone notices all the previous blasts in the few years, whether it was 9/11, all were well coordinated and within few minutes a series of them took place. As if the prime aim is to cause maximum mayhem).Wish if our system would have been so well coordinated. After few minutes of the blast, everyone displayed an almost maudlin concern .All the compartments were completely obliterated by the blasts .Bodies strewn everywhere, a complete chaos and a disaster. The complete system was down within minutes, as if a stop clock stopped suddenly and then again starts ticking away. Here a worth mentioning coordination - The western railways up and running within few hours (kudos to them). Within few hours there was a red alert sounded in the whole country. Although the rumors started heating up the discussions, all were later ruled out by various authorities. But one question which was lingering in every individual's mind except The Misanthrope was: ‘Who is it? ’ Whatever, Whoever, Whenever, Wherever! It is very important that the people should appear nonchalant. We all know many would have lost their lives, living behind people, who would always feel the vacuum of their presence in their life span. Many of them would be left handicapped missing those parts which were the most important part of their life, and few would have escaped unhurt. The end result, “We are here not to bow ourselves in front of these fanatics, we are here to fight them and tell them its not you, but it is us and we will Win” "The aim of life is no more to control the mind, but to develop it harmoniously; not to achieve salvation here after, but to make the best use of it here below; and not to realize truth, beauty and good only in contemplation, but also in the actual experience of daily life; social progress depends not upon the ennoblement of the few but on the enrichment of democracy; universal brotherhood can be achieved only when there is an equality of opportunity - of opportunity in the social, political and individual life." — from Bhagat Singh's prison diary, p. 124

Overt and Covert

There was not a better heading which I could think of for this post. India's credulous nature has always led others to take advantage of her, but then are we really taken advantage of? AGNI-III they said has been not successful, but then do we have any proof except media, which lends credence to this theory? India, we all agree has been the cynosure off all eyes, but then I believe that every measure both overt and covert has been taken. India's self protection date back to the late 40's when Nehru said, "As long as the world is constituted as it is, every country will have to devise and use the latest devices for its protection. I have no doubt India will develop her scientific researches and I hope Indian scientists will use the atomic force for constructive purposes. But if India is threatened, she will inevitably try to defend herself by all means at her disposal."
This sentence shows us that India would never bow down to anyone’s pressure and rise as a nation when it has to prove its worth. India maintains a "no-first-use" "minimum nuclear deterrent," nuclear policy in the event of war as enunciated in its Nuclear Doctrine, released in 1999. India has always surprised the world in terms of power, the last surprise though dated 8 years back when they tested their second Nuke at Pokhran.
India tested its most advanced ballistic missile. The launch was perfect, but in between it developed a technical snag, and dropped short of its target. All eyes are on North Korea who few days back tested their intercontinental Ballistic missile and this Test went unnoticed by the International Media, and even if it was noticed, it was not covered properly. In India this was overshadowed by the small riots in Mumbai, with a political party going on a rampage.
As if Agni III crash was not sufficient for the Indian, Insat 4c launch also failed. The main reason though for both have not been open. For the failure of Agni-III many reasons are being said, the main reason for this failure is till not known. The whole point now being debated upon is, if the concerned authority new of the various technical drawbacks, why was the missile test fired?
The important point here is that even though China has an advanced missile program, a successful launch of this missile would have definitely added into the Indian arsenal, a shield against the various threats and a sword to strike deep into the Eastern Asian subcontinent. This would have definitely filled the gap of the huge vacuum in the Indian arsenal, when compared with China, and also the world would have witnessed the acme of India's collection. Its time now that India should increase the tests, and the media rather than a castigation of her tests, should try to support her.

My Connection with a Word Called Marketing

It was my life first interview as a sales associate, when i was in my seventh semester. They had just asked me one question, “Sell this pen to us". Loads of answers came to my mind. But then there was one answer which never came from my mind. “If i had to sell a pen to you i would have joined some company like parker, why you”Was i selected or was i not; well i was, but then its history. I have been a sort of guy who can always get people into confidence and that’s where i stand in marketing. Marketing has always been a passion in my life and i want to do it desperately, but then my luck i could not. Why i also don’t know?You never get what you want in life, its again a "Quest for Nothing". There is one thing where i have always remained constant and fixed is that about marketing, why i want to do it and what makes me the right person to do it has been answered. But then i need a so called hyped up education MBA.Responsibilities a strong word though, makes me not go for it. I was selected at IIT Kharagpur, after my Final year, for further Post Graduate and I did not go... Why? Got calls from few MBA colleges did not go.Why? Well these are few things which i have not been able to define. Well my friends often have asked me why marketing. And for that also i don’t have an answer. I still don’t know why????

All about SSP

Dont you think that its important to know what is sardar sarovar project all about before going into the other details.An Abstract from http://www.sardarsarovardam.org/"Arable land and fresh water are two important resources of India. India's arable land area is 30% more than that of China which is as such three times India in size - geographically. India's surface water estimated at 1952 BCM is about two-third that of China. India's northern region makes up the World's largest alluvial plane and the soils rank among the most fertile in the World.And yet India remains poor and underfed : Then, what is the handicap? It is two-fold - first our arable land is spread out stretching from Kachchh to Brahmaputra valley and from Deccan trap to planes of Punjab, while bulk of surface water sources are concentrated in about a dozen river basins; second, 80 to 90% of surface water is available only in monsoon months, and flows down the sea if not impounded. Therefore neither water nor land is utilised optimally, depriving the country of their full benefits.The Sardar Sarovar Project, or any other large water resources project for that matter, has to be viewed in this national perspective.In course of 50 years of planned economic development of our country, we have taken tremendous strides in agriculture sector. Our country which had to depend upon imports to feed even a population of 350 millions (35 crores) when we became independent, has attained a position of self sufficiency with some exportable surplus even with a population of over 1 billion (102 crores). The Sardar Sarovar Project was first conceived in the 1940s by India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, but the project did not begin to become a reality until 1979. The goal of the project is to create around 3200 small, medium and large dams along the length of the river, with the Sardar Sarovar dam being the largest.Suggestions like water harnessing, small dams, watershed development etc. often flaunted by anti dam activists which may look deceptively simple, become totally irrelevant and grossly inadequate to meet such situations and for such arid areas for which transfer of water from surplus regions can only provide a real and lasting remedy. Sardar Sarovar Project is essentially a vehicle for taking plentiful waters of Narmada basin which are to-day flowing down the sea, to the water starved regions of Saurashtra, Kachchh, North Gujarat and Rajasthan. It can be compared with transfer of water from Central USA to the arid areas of West USA.Such water transfer also enables optimum use of arable land and water when they are apart from each other. While land can not be transferred, water can be flown to distant places. Otherwise land one side and water away at other place, both remain unused, unproductive. And if in face of hunger and poverty, water and land are allowed to remain separated and unused, it can be regarded as a crime against humanity! The core issue of development in a country is to manage its natural resources. And as Development Economists often say, a country is poor, not because it does not have resources, but because it does not have either will or ability to manage its resources. In Sardar Sarovar Project we have undertaken this task of managing our water resources for National interest - our food security, energy security and upgrading the quality of life - including that of people who would be required to shift from submergence areas. It is a national project in the true sence.It is intended to present the factual details and basic data relating to the project, also highlighting its multidimensional contribution to welfare of the people of the participating States - e.g. Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat and Rajasthan and to the national economy.Like many other projects of developing countries from Aswan of Egypt to the Lesotho Highlands water scheme of South Africa and Tehri in India, Sardar Sarovar Project has also become a focus of a concerted international anti dam campaign, carried out by its local loyal supporters, resorting to disinformation intended to create confusion in public mind. As has happened in the case of Aswan Dam in Egypt, time will vindicate the wisdom of planners and leaders who have helped in pushing ahead with this project with determination and commitment."

ABOUT MY ATTACHEMENT WITH NARMADA RIVER

In his Highlands of Central India Captain J. Forsyth speaks eloquently about the infinitely varied beauty of the rocks: "the eye never wearies of the ... effect produced by the broken and reflected sunlight, now glancing from a pinnacle of snow-white marble reared against the deep blue of the sky as from a point of silver, touching here and there with bright lights the prominence of the middle heights and again losing itself in the soft bluish grays of their recesses. . . Here and there the white saccharine limestone is seamed by veins of dark green or black volcanic rock; a contrast which only enhances like a setting of jet, the purity of the surrounding marble." Well I wanted to write since a long time about Narmada River. Since my childhood, there has been a special attachment with this river. Why? Well I have been staying at that place where this river, flows through one of the most beautiful gorges you would ever come across in the country. Originating from a small town called Amarkantak, this river is considered to be one of the most pure rivers in India, though the reason may sound very absurd, but then it is said that Narmada the Goddess is not married. Well leaving this apart, the river flows through the deep forest ( Sal and Bamboo ) of Madhya Pradesh , inhabited by hundreds of animals like Sambar, Cheetals , Cheetah , and quenching the thirst of millions , species present on the planet Earth (Don’t forget Human Beings are also species ) I believe that many of you would have definitely seen the Gorgeous Kareena Kapoor (I used this word because i really like her), dancing on a small raft, on the tunes of Anu Mallik and Sandeep Chowta (not sure who composed raat ka nasha). This is where Jis desh main Ganga behti hain was shot,the very same place where Rekha was pushed to her death in Khoon bhari maang and Nargis sang with Raj Kapoor in Awara.If you have ever been there then you would be amazed with the boatmen calculation of the depth of the river , starting from a mere 10 feet to a whooping 600 feet (thought i have never ever figured it out that how they calculated the depth ). Boating on a moonlit night, when the whole stretch of water is transformed into a sheet of liquid silver is a site to cherish is absolutely magical and enchanting. Not been there ask anyone in Jabalpur if you are there to take you to Bhedaghat , the holy river flows by tranquilly flanked by the towering cliffs which reflect in it like a mirror the changing moods of nature,(there are volcanic seams on these rocks of different hues – black, green, brown and sometimes pink) Narmada! I still remember, when i was small used to get reduced to a small stream of river, during the summer, but the building of the dam, not only solved the problem of water for the people living in the area around Jabalpur, but then also, gave a new hope to the people around in terms of trade when it comes to fisheries. You can see the greenery around the dam, when you cross the area. Also, a huge bridge is built over the river Narmada near Tilwaraghat, which is unique of a kind, with a road built over the canal. That is the place when we all friends , do go whenever we are at jabalpur during our vacations .Beautiful days and cool nights we all friends have spent lingering around on the Tilwaraghat Bridge shouting and don’t know doing what all not. Being so emotionally attached to the city and the river which flows through it and quench the thirst of millions of people , when we are not protesting and are not against the building of the Sardar Sarovar Project, then why the so called Social Element of this country are creating all hue and cry of.

Why Marketing?

Development is a part of software, where your life is confined just to the screen and the keyboard. You get to meet people during the coffee breaks. This is not ultimately what i believe in. I believe in not only delivering the best to whom i am suppose to deliver, but then i want to be the delivery man , to whom i was delivering the thing. I want to meet out people and help them get what is really good for them .Basically want to live out to the people expectations not as someone who is a part of a back office, unknown and not heard, but to meet them , help them in believing that what we deliver is the best. Building that confidence and faith , that what we would at the end of the day be helping you achieve , something which will not only be beneficial in terms of short term monetary gain, but help you to achieve what is most commonly known as the Brand Name. I know that Even though it’s just out of my field, I think that it’s in me to go out and get the required in for the firm.

My Understanding of Marketing

My Understanding of Marketing
1. Marketing on the internet differ from marketing in other regular medias
First internet marketing is a part of e-commerce. What i believe is that differentiating Internet from other media will not be a reasonable one, if it is in terms of communication to the customer. How do i then differentiate it? One most common way to differentiate it from regular media is that the ease of buying option which internet marketing offers. If you are giving out a ‘3 – P (price, persistence, pleasure) product, and you have it as an advertisement on the Net, the viewer right now who is viewing that advertisement, can become the customer of the product within few minutes, and that too just on a click of mouse. With India’s growing economy and the increase in the number of internet users, Internet has become a popular media of communication and advertising. For example, the retail sector which is now the happening sector is concentrating more on youth, and the increase in the number of youth as internet users; I believe it would definitely open Internet as a bigger market. The only challenge which internet marketing has when compared from the regular media, is that of advertising through television. Though that day is not far when television will be a part of internet .I think that, coming are those days when people will believe only on Internet - Marketing.
2.What works in marketing? Maverick behavior or meticulous planning?
Both, they are something similar to the two sides of the coin. How? Take the 5 rupee coin, the digit 5 is the Maverick Behavior and the National emblem at the back is the one related to meticulous planning. Why?Because, the national emblem required meticulous planning to help it identify its authentication .Digit 5 is in itself a maverick behavior, what you are gaining from it!I would take up maverick behavior here because; meticulous planning is what always everyone does to survive. Maverick behavior has many words like strange, unfamiliar combinations, seems impossible to handle, etc related to it. And that’s what is needed, you need to hit it right when you have to and when you don’t feel like hitting it, then you should not. The dictionary meaning of maverick is, Being independent in thought and action or exhibiting such independence. This is what you require; you cannot borrow ideas in Marketing. You can not be repetitive in something which your competitor has already done. You need to be a maverick. (And I would love to have my call sign as ‘maverick)
3)Why towards Marketing from a company really challenging?
Well , the company which would target to go toward marketing , would be 2, one the company which would want to establish itself as a brand , and then other the later which has established itself as a brand and wants to sell its product as a bulk consumer , which would be another phase of marketing through advertising . What they need to target on this is youth.What i think is that if you have the youth power with you, and you are among the happening among the youth then you have the power.Well no one was born intelligent, Albert Einstein though he had an elongated piece of mind, had to work, and show the world that what he has done is worth. What i think is that if we have something good to show to the world, then it will never be tough to convince someone of what you want from them, even if it is asking then to invest a fortune in. This is something very similar to a process of an IPO, if you have enough backing to show to the investor, He will definitely not say no.
4)Why me into marketing ?
Rather than going in for a research, just hit the market raw, and get some deals in. I believe the company should hit the market. On the way start collecting data, analyzing it, and on a targeted date, hit the road, for the Red bull. Come out with a bang, go ahead with the data, the research and get the horns honking. This is how I believe myself as I would go ahead. I would require help in terms of other material thing, but then if I am allowed to handle something, though would not be able to immediately show results , like not would come up with a diamond in a go, but then I would definitely slowly within a span of time emerge as a go getter. But then as time flows, there are many aspects here, what I believe is that, even though something can be done alone, there are few things which cannot be done alone. I would be requiring a team to work in. There are places where obviously a team view should match, the view that should match is respecting each other views, and basically recognizing the profitable view. This would sound like something absurd but then, the point here is that i would try to build a strong team (if permitted) also on the way which would be basically divided into two categories, one who have the ability to hit the road once they are in and the other to do the research and analysis handling the risks related issues and everything, so that all the things which are vision by the team is achieved. I not only want in the end to emerge as a leader alone but what i want are the Winning strokes.

India Israel justified is It ??

"India, 28 others demand end to Israeli military action"

Eventually what is this country trying to do? I am talking about India. This is the second time when India has voted against an allied country. Allied country here I mean Israel. How do they justify this? Is this now because of Russia this time, as Russia voted in the favor of the resolution which was passed?
Let me take you through the whole issue,
“Agitated by the abduction of one of the Israeli soldiers by the Hamas Govt, Israel launched a military action in the Palestinian civil area on June, 25. The UN decided to send a special mission headed by the Special Rapporteur to the area for getting the details. After 2 days the session adopted a resolution on the Human right situation. Ultimately this resolution was passed and India and 28 other countries voted in favor of the same”

Let me take you back on a flashback
“India supports the Israeli method of handling terrorism”
"Israel Offers Support to India in Fighting Terrorism"
"Israel-India nuclear cooperation gets attention of the region"
"Israel assures all-out support”

What does India want? Is it giving the votes in favor because they want a permanent seat in the Security Council or does it want Shashi Tharoor to get the top UN's post? What India is doing is that it trusts those aids which they should definitely not. This country should realize that in the long run they have support from few countries, Israel definitely one of them. India should be careful not to condescend to its allies. A congenial solution here would have been not voting or try to be normal.

Brolly - Parasol - Umbra - Umbrella

'Rain Rain go away come again another day “Its monsoon time again. And every one have their umbrellas out. This is my 3rd monsoon in Mumbai and I just love the monsoons out here. Be it my way to office, to my girlfriends place or anywhere, i just love the way this city has always taken the monsoons. Though this time the situation is a little paranoid after the 26th July, catastrophe.
People would really hate me if i dig into the negative side of the monsoon, as this is smeared in the media, as if it is the only thing which they have to cover. Well leave apart the negative quality. Have you ever smelled the perfume of this wet earth, the way it fills your nose with the intoxicating smell. Being in the closed 4 walls of your office and then in your small car is not what these rains are for. I hate people who love to stay in their so called air conditioned office, cars and homes during these monsoons. You ask them have you ever smelled the wet earth and, you will be amazed to hear them say in some funny accent ‘It stinks man/dude'. Well that’s the bad part.
My way to office is somewhat something very funny which you would not see much in mumbai, one side of the road you would see big salt beds, which are normally full with rain waters during the monsoon, making you feel like a carpet of water all around you , the other side big unused green land , with tall buildings visible faraway as if trying to envelope everything around you. What it tries to depict is a competition between the Man and Nature. Who knows who will win?
Even though mumbai is a concrete jungle, you would love the small brooks formation on the various hills around the city which makes it lively, contradicting the dull illogical designed concrete structure of this city. I have not tried to cover the Arabian Sea here as that would be a complete injustice to the beauty torridness of both the torrential rains and the Arabian Sea. I will definitely try to cover that in my next blog….

'Reticent' Are We !!!

Having written all those stupid and no-sense blogs, it seems like a real time waste. I was never been leveraged upon by anything in my life , but then now it seems more like a umbrage to me and my life that i have been so sporadic in my daily activities. Insipid - Would be a very good word to call life. Very monotonous and the Salacious part is obviously missing. I was just glancing across my old school magazine and to be honest it was amazingly very nostalgic. It seems that we have been vanquished by our daily life and we are forgetting what we actually are made for. Though this argument may seem arcane to those who are not working, but then now every one has become brazen about the whole affair , whether its politics , whether it is sports or whatever. It is definitely being shown here of our ceding authority to them. Them!! ‘them’ here is a strong word and basically covers a very big community. What we do is just commiserate with the losers on their defeat. We all know that they, in the past, not taken cognizance of any protest unless there has been some show of violence. Leave apart being a colossus of this movement are we even a small part of it? Is it really a thing to be cogitated upon before giving up? Even if we do this, we always put forward some cogent reasons not to anyone else, but ourselves for abandoning the plan. The cardinal member of us is missing, it has been lost!!!!!!!!!!
