Dilli Meri Jaan..!

It’s been some time; no it would be more apt to say it’s been long time since I had any special opportunity to go out of the way to praise my city. This doesn’t mean that my heart doesn’t beat for my city. It does of course and will remain that way till I reach my final destination like every one has to, one day or some day.

My city has always stayed on the head lines and been a very frequent ‘breaking news’ for all the TV channels.. From Pot holes to Open drains, from hit & run cases to rapes on moving cars, from bride burning to chain snatching, from political scandals to political scams, from mob violence to political gheraos, from terrorists attacks to espionage, from swine flue to bird flue, from sting operations to deingo, if I let loose my fingers on the key board this listing will remain unending. Truly my city has been on all CAPS for every wrong reasons and as though this was not enough, now the “Commonwealth” “Game Swindling” is almost ripping apart the city’s’ credentials and creditability. Also very close on heels we now have ‘caving of roads’ as river Yamuna after ages decides to flow majestically, which innocently opens up the “Pandora box” in city administrations.

I know that I, both as a part of a crowd and as a face in the crowd remain most vigorous when it comes to cribbing, or when it comes to expressing my woes of being in this city. However what I have never tried enough is to look around the city and take note of some positive vibes”. I call this a common human behavior pattern...I wish to change though...

Of late when I see my city drenched in apathy I am looking around for some opportunity to put all my heart and shout “WOW”…....

Now here as my eyes hit the today’s front page news “DELHI METRO” reaches Gurgaon...I am suddenly finding my self so excited that I heard myself saying loudly “WOW” what a remarkable achievement....!

My set of teeth don't remain well placed between my jaws, otherwise I bet my million dollar smile at this moment would have been any camera's delight… Mogambo Khush Hua! Dilli Meri Jaan…!

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...
