being Hindu.....

-
Religion is the only domain that has unlimited tools and applications to keep the human race,running, re tracking & re furbishing their thought,action and wisdom on a faith called GOD. 'Hinduism' is one of such innumerable domains that remain vibrant& kicking everywhere in this planet that we call "Earth"...

Almost 70 to 80 years ago in time my parents were born into a "tambrahm" Hindu family. I am therefore a 'Hindu" by birth and so do I remain now. I am not very religious about religions. I did though soon after finishing my college got into the routine of " a conversation with GOD" wherein I spent 15 minutes of my early mornings of everydays of the week Monday through Saturday asking HIM to make all my big,small great wishes come true

I am carrying on with this routine even today when I have touched 60'. HE keeps me telling that Wishes can never be horses and that I can never ride on them,still I continue talking my 'wish lists' with HIM..

I don't carry my conversation with GOD on Sundays. With God, being God we know that he does not need to rest. However with me being me I know I need a break from my routine once a week at least. I therefore chose it to be Sundays.

The unique advantage of being a Hindu is that you have unlimited choices of GOD to choose from and also you have all the freedom to reach out to any of HIM any time any place and at your own convenience. There is absolutely no rigidity ,no binding. No Do's & NO Don'ts..

What else more a mortal being like me can ask for when I have the choices of speaking my heart out to any of the multitude of God & Goddesses that my religion offers to me and that too with unlimited talk time and without subject to any of those 'condition applied' clauses.

Sometimes as a citizen of this country I do feel irritant of being a Hindu. Probably it is because as a nation we remain so hooked to a philosophy called secularism that at times our own religion in our own country becomes a threat to our own existence. However that's no threat to my belief and my faith in my religion..

I love my religion and therefore I remain absolutely proud and happy being Hindu...

AFRICAN SAFARI.....a Book Review

-
Image
  "African Safari" is an intriguing title for a book that nowhere talks of  any expeditions to animal kingdom in the jungles of Africa. This book is about a cigar smoking business tycoon , a multibillion and multinational conglomerate whose business interest goes beyond his inherited empire of liquor and beer industries and spreads across industries  as diverse  as Airlines, Pharma, Paints, textiles to name a few. The media across the globe dub him as "King of good times".  "African Safari " is the story of "Rana Kapoor" the business tycoon and his business ventures in the French speaking regions of Africa, a continent that is fast emerging as world's big time growth market. The book takes us through  intricacies of clinching  business deals.  It talks about how political lobbying and networking with people in high places and bankers collaborate and become a blue print for M&A  stories. The book tells you that stories of business ventures

Giving words to my thoughts...

I  am returning to this space after 2 years and past 242 posts .It doesn't mean that I have lost my itch  for writing. I have always loved  scribbling words that give voice to the way I look at a situation, or to the way I feel about anything on the ground and under the sky. . My   view  may or may not matter  to the rest. However for me it remains a  mark of my own creativity. My creativity is more about visualizing things that  seldom see the light of the day.   Some call this  “Daydreaming” . I don't mind if people call me  a “wandering mind.” Neither I am bothered about the stigma called  “laziness” attached to it.  I see it as a tonic that energizes me  to think  beyond the realm of possibility For instance no matter how much  ever  I would have   chased my dreams  of becoming a corporate tycoon  I would never have been one simply because I would then lose the privilege and intimacy of being around with familiar and friendly faces sipping beer in crowded bar. I don't l

This Bihar election is the first major election since the Covid 19 pandamic disrupted the political calender and prompted sweeping measures for social distencing. The three Phase Bihar Poll for 243 Vidhan Sabha seats was completed on the 7th. The turnout for the poll as per media report was 58%. Today is the vote counting day. By the time the sun sets today , the dawn  of the next political regime in the State will emerge. Will this dawn usher in a new political 'don' or  the "Sarkar Raj" will continue  with  their  "All is Well " narrative for another 4 years. Will PM Modi, the over used "trump card" political campainer for NDA  be able  to push  back JDU- BJP led alliance once again into rulling Bihar for another four year terms or will he   concede defeat without playing and  crying foul.  Well whatever be the outcome of today's polling verdict, the politics of vendetta and vilifying the  poor will continue. The problem of unemployment, the
