God's hand on the Goal post...

My knowledge of football is as limited as my knowledge of cricketing. However watching FIFA world cup has always given me the kicks & excitement which has ever remained a missing factor while watching the IPL series .It is sad that even in spite of Lalit Modi & his team's work out to spread the outfield with semi covered cheerleaders, the cricketing pitch has not been able to produce any knockout games, they merely remained a series of glam & glamour. Well it is not right to go foot loose kicking cricket every time & every where. After all it is the one game in our country that scripts overnight rags to riches stories outside of the silver screens.

Football & the world cup has always been for long a part of my day dreams.One of my life time goal is to see myself cheering my "INDIA" at the FIFA GOLD CUP. Since it may take a few more of decades to see that coming true I do wish I am able to survive that many decades and also remain hail hearty and as excited as I am today about Football and the world cup.

Now for this FIFA 2010 “Argentina” remains my all time favorites and it has nothing to do about my love for Bacardi…a drink I will love to raise a toast with for the good health of my all time favorite “Diego Maradona. I look forward to watch Mascherano (Captain) and his team-mates setting fire on the pitch, when they play Germany for the quarter finals today& hope the team gets the honour of lifting the Trophy on July 11…till then it is "God's hand on the Goal post"…

MY MODISTORY

I am one among 900 million plus "nuts and bolts" of our Democracy , who become "faceless" faces in the crowd after every 5 years. Year 2014 election was in every sense historic It was beyond doubt a landslide victory for BJP and the beginning of the so called "MODI" Raj In year 2014 my reason and my josh for casting my vote for BJP was "Modi". His speeches were "sparkling confidence" that set ablaze the confidence of the nation that was trying to rise up from the cesspool of corruption Looking back now after 11 years I realise that year 2014 was also the beginning of era called "Political Branding" that would covert a "politician" into a larger than life "Mega Leader" Perhaps that is the reason that today in politics "anti-incumbency" does not matter at all . Here are in brief a Common man's bunch of thoughts on "Modi Story". These ...

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...
