| Yesterday The HT reported how a group 0f 70 -80 hoolingans romped in the New Year by openly molesting & doing a "draupadi" boldly - throwing all caution into thin air in Mumbai & thereby making a mockery of our rotten law & order & its useless caretakers. Seeing the picture in the Newspaper my 7 year old daughter asked me innocently, " Papa ye kya...

| Travelling to New Zealand |
| Day one On the way to the airport in Tuticorin the road was very bad. Air Deccan called to say that the flight was advanced by half an hour. I was shocked, I had never heard about a flight being advanced but then Air Deccan is known to be different. I told my cabbie to hurry up. He gave me a dirty look which said ‘Look at the road man, you want to...

| I studied Hindi in my earlier schoolings for 4 yrs, so I can read and write Hindi, however I can’t speak in Hindi at that time (2004). Though I worked in North India, I was unable to learn Hindi at that time, because of the Tamil guys who around me for all the 11 months. And I never bother to learn at that time, now also. All matter of communicatio...

Even so, I accept that all the concepts in the Gita are entirely great and inspiring. But I wonder... the Bhagvad Gita is essentially seen as a Hindu bo...
