Every thought from earthly to unearthly

  • The fish will fly in next birth

    The phone rang for unusual number of times today. My sister or her daughter is generally not that late to pick up a call. When I heard my sister on the other side, I said – “Hi! didi, what are you doing? Where is Chinu?” Her response took me aback. She said – “Chinu and…

  • Terrorist meets The Buddha

    I heard a news that ISIS has sent a threat message to Sri Sri Ravishankar (Guruji). This blog is inspired from that message and story of The Buddha and angulimala. From This blog – …My Engineering college professor Dr Anand Swaroop Saxena told me some time in 2001 – “inherently people are not flawed, situation drive…

  • Economics concepts and equality

    I was thinking about this strange experiment. What is we conclude end of day today that, everyone is given a new currency DMV (Digital Monetary Value) 2000. Any currency anyone has in his /her account is NULL except DMV 2000 after end of day today. Any other assets whatsoever are also NULL. This will bring everyone on the…

    The Buddha only spoke about scientific path of liberation – Meditation. According to Indian philosophy there are more ways, one is Bhakti or devotion.

  • Drop meets the ocean

    In 2006 I was new to Mumbai city, when I met Anisha. She was studying in 9th standard. My distant relative asked me to meet her and guide her for preparing for IIT-JEE (I’d prepared for JEE too). When I met her, I felt as if she has accepted the things the way they were.…

  • Free market, corporate espionage & Government

    What is free market? A very straightforward definition of free market is – a market system where prices of goods and services are set freely by consent of sellers and consumers.

  • Symbol of Faith

    Let us have question mark as symbol of Faith! Hope this will help us question the blind faith.
