"XIX Commonwealth Games" a race for success..!

We are today watching "Connaught Place" the very "Heart" of this city, going through an 'open heart surgery'. We don't yet know how long the 'operation' will last. However what we know is that this "Heart" of Delhi" has to be found "beating healthy" and 'strong' in just about '263' days. The "roads and flyovers" ,the very "Arteries" of this city remain chocked up with anything that has "four wheels and something". We don't yet know if the 'authorities' will be able to make these roads and flyovers "accident free". However what we know is that these "Arteries" has to flow without 'blockade' in just about '263' days. "Transportation" which are the very "limbs" of this 'city', are currently hanging 'loose' on the 'shoulders'. The "low floor" 'DTC' buses are "catching fire' almost on a weekly basis. We don't know if the 'authorities' will take serious notice of this. However what we know is that these "limbs" has to be back on the "shoulders" and swinging fine" in just about 263 days. "Localities,colonies and streets" the very 'skin' of this city, remain "poke marked" with "crime,rowdyism and hooliganism". We don't see any treatment in progress for erasing these 'marks'. We don't know as yet if the authorities are prepared enough to safe guard "human lives". However what we know is that this "Skin" has to be all "glowing" and "scar free" and remain "safe" for all human lives in just about 263 days.
There are still scores of "Commonwealth" projects that will not have the luxury of a "9" months wait for "delivery". We don't see if the 'authorities' are geared up for a "Cesarean". However what we know is that these "projects" have to be 'delivered' and remain "fighting fit" in just about 263 days..
Our CM Smt Sheila Dikshit may have used the word "nervous" as a matter of "expression". However the fact is that the "City" today is on the verge of a massive "hemmorage". However what we know is that the "hemmorage" has to be arrested and the city made all "Gutsy" in just about 263 days.
The year 2010 "Commonwealth Games" scheduled to begin this "October", may look a "mission impossible". However what we know is that in next 263 days, Delhi has to be glittering and playing a most "hospitable" and charismatic host for "XIX COMMONWEALTH GAMES" scheduled to begin on 3rd of October 2010.
Let us be the part of this "Race for Success".

CLARITY IN CHAOS

  The Bhagavad Gita is a living scripture  universally relevant  today as it was 5000 years ago in the battlefield of Kurukshetra. It is a divine conversation that took place in the battlefield of Kurukshetra  between two best  friends, Lord Krishna the Charioteer and Arjuna the warrior.  'Bhagavad Gita' is an integral part of of Indian mythology  I have always believed mythology is not for everyone including me.  So when my friend, the author of the book  "Understanding Bhagavad Gita", gave me a  copy to review , I was not very comfortable.  I like  'Arjuna'  started looking for excuses . However one day not very soon , "The Recipe For A Better Life " the part of the title  hooked me into reading it The author has covered the essence of 'Gita' inside the  160 pages, through   eighteen Chapters.  Every chapter has an "Introduction", a "Summary" and a "Reflection" The simplicity of his writing gives...

In conversation with Bapu....

With 'Sare Jahan Se Achcha' and 'Abide with Me'the Soul-stirring martial tunes and solemn drum beats at the majestic Raisina Hills the "Beating the Retreat" ceremony marked the conclusion of the week long ceremonial functions of India celebrating her 62nd year of Republic.As the illumination lit up the edifices of Imperial India..my thought reached out to that day into the history of independence that finally dropped the curtain on a life called "Gandhi"...the man whose experiment with truth may not have jelled with today but his name has truly become the brand that remain most misused & manipulated both in trade & politics.As I key-in these lines I can read out the conversation that would have transpired between the "soul of Nation" (SON) and "Mahatma Gandhi"(Bapu)....Read on what I read..... SON: Bapu it's me,are you sleeping....? BAPU: How can you ask that...don't you know this day in the year 1948..I was gu...
