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...

    I was the youngest of the 4 siblings and the only son ,but that  never  made me precious and  pampered by the family. My father was in the army. We all  grew up in cantonment environment, hopping almost every 2 years  from one Cantonment to the other  Like from Allahabad’s Draupadi Ghat we came to Calcutta’s Fort William and  then to  Bangalore Cantonment  Bangalore was the only city where we  remained stationed for almost 5 years before getting  shifted to Delhi Cantonment in 1961, 4th of July to be precis It was the year 1959-60 and I was about 10 years old  studying in the 6th form in the Army’s  Regimental school . Around this time my  father decided to put me into “King George Military School” .This  was a ‘day’ Boarding School exclusively for Defence personnels . It is now called “Rashtriya Military School”. There was an aptitude test which I cleared but failed the written test. I was happy, a...

DE LHI Gasping!!

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
