'TeamWork'...what an idea ! SirJi..!!!!

Oh.."NoJi" .....'teamwork' is never an "idea" ...it is simply 'action'.when.. "like minded" people join in for actioning a defined 'agenda' for achieving individual goals..that will be rewarding & mutually profitable. This is 'true'..and that is "Satyam" in Sanskrit. Such coming 'together' with a common intent always makes 'impossible' a possible 'deliverable'.In corporate parlance this is called "Management by Objective". By the way did you know "ethics" never enter the"Board Room". This gives a privilege to the 'members' of the "Board", their associated 'committee' and the so called statutory "watch dogs" to remain unscrupulous in all their 'transactions'. Well, well... don't start scratching your head ..I have this nasty habit of never able to come to the 'point' without beating around the 'bush&

The 'gone' 'year' and the 'gone by' years may have made "terrorism" a 'towering inferno'...yet the zest to be 'alive' and be around in a 'terror free' world runs high within us...I call this the "Towering Optimism". I am a normal middle class mortal..and remain happy enough to stay high on 'hopes'.. picking up optimism in my life... and I will not call this "Towering Optimism".This is my way of looking at life as it lasts... I have greyed my hair trying to own a Maruti 800...but still I have not given up my idea of buying a "Ferrari". I still run into calculation errors...every time I plan a vacation for my 'family' even... if it is... just about a train journey.However I don't take this as a set back to my plans for a "cruise" vacation for my family. I have never received an opportunity to attend any of those Indian..... "Fat Wedding"..still I am confident of

Who is "KING"..?

Scene..1 He was so stubborn that he never gave up his desire to "snatch" 'her' away… The blood bath,the human butchers going wild and scary, the pain, the agony and the humiliations of millions..never touched him…..'NO'... he was not 'inhumane' …he was passionate …passionate for a 'cause'.. that he called “PAK” that was 1947. .. Time has moved since. Today no one any more believes in something called "PAKEEZAH"………probably now …….life bleeds …&….heart hardly beats… This is today……CUT..... Scene..2 He was so moved and deeply hurt.The blood bath,the human butchers going wild and scary, the pain, the agony and the humiliations of millions made him to 'give her away' ......NO... he was not a 'coward'... he was passionate for a cause that he called "AHIMSA". that was 1947....cut...cut.... However in spite of their different "passions"...both of them believed that "Religion" is a personal

."Whenever you are in crisis ...'don't Panic just 'call him'..he will 'bail' you out from the situation." His grand mother always said this to him.He always believed his grand mother...because.. she was everything to him. . He was now 20 and very handsome.... had come all the way from Delhi to this city of dreams to become a hero.He was crossing an adjacent street somewhere near to Mumbai stock exchange..when he heard the earth shaking blast and was witness to all chaos and screams that followed....he was on his feet the entire night running the the victims to the hospitals and; pulling the dead from the debris......He was so focused in his Samaritan work....he just forgot to 'call him'. It was 12/3...1993. He was 32 now and just married. He & his wife where busy eating the 'Gol Guppas' at a corner shop in 'Sarojini Nagar'..suddenly the entire area rocked with screams of people and street turned bloody...he and ; his

My 'GOD' & 'Me'

GOD : Of late I don't find you coming to the temple.. Me : Cutting through the over crowded bazaars,..jumping all those pot holes on the roads,.. trying to navigate through a chaotically managed mad traffic, & inhaling the suffocating stench of urine & garbage pile-ups,...the walk to the 'temple' is becoming more of an ordeal than a 'shrdha'. As though this is not enough...the absence of street lights in the evenings & the local hooligans free play all around ..it is ... literally making my trip to the temple a nightmare. I have therefore stopped going to the temples. GOD : Nightmare ..!and ..for you !...I don't believe it..looks like you have got everything you wanted.. and so you think you don't need me any more. Me : How can you say that?.You are my only HOPE. GOD : Don't give me that humble talk..you know & I know .... you are virtually the power that stalk the length & breadth of this country. Probably it is your greed for more
