KRD Pravin

Here I am supposed to write about myself. Professionally, I am quite serious and a workaholic; personally I am an individual who enjoys what he does and takes life as it comes. I am passionate about my work and actions and empathetically careful, attached and committed to them. All this makes me a fierce competitive professional and yet a compassionate soul, the Yin and the Yang together. Balancing is the art to be practiced using the middle path.

Is Curiosity a Lost Art?

Remember the days of limited educational choices?

Fast forward to today, not only there are so many boards Read more

Mindful or Involuntary action, are you spiritual or religious?

Involuntary action of bowing in temple does not make one religious. Reverence must come from within, it’d be a mindful act. You shouldn’t be God fearing religious, be God loving.
