Celebrations???

The new year has dawned and it simply makes no difference to me. I am up against the people celebrating new year with a frenzied madness as if it is yet another diwali or christmas or ramzan. After all, this new year is not even a regular central government holiday and it is merely the start of yet another month. I strongly feel these new year celebrations show our addiction towards the western culture, and it  has demoralized and spoiled the Indian tradition and culture. With an increasing number of divorce cases and an increase in the number of the so called "crimes of passion", it seems our tradition and culture will become a thing of the past. Every new year symbolizes an increase in the number of parties and nothing else. I just wonder what Bharathiyar would have dreamed of had he been alive today!! He would have wished for a sensible and a responsible younger generation!

A Forgotten Hero

In the years to come, the growth of India is going to be tremendous certainly. With a rising middle class and promising young leaders, India will be in a respectable position atleast by 2030. We may not be able to do what China has done in the last few decades. But certainly we will be a stronger, more self reliant and a developed country by that time. When we turn back and see where it all started, the roots would be lying in the vision of this great man. It is astonishing that the country and media has quite forgotten this great leader, who showed the way how to perform even when people around him were digging traps for him. His speech in Ayodhya a few days before the demolition is possibly the only thing which makes people feel bad about him. Except for that Vajpayee was a man who deserves the maximum respect.
He did not bow down to U.S pressure. He was bold enough to lead us during tough,testing times. He gave his heart out to develop good relationship with Pakistan. He was a strong and a tall leader.In an era where most of the Indian politicians seem reluctant to retire from active politics for the sake of power and money, this great leader announced his retirement from active politics!! Whether he is conferred with it or not, he is really a Bharath Ratna!! Happy birthday Atal ji!!

It is great to have a cup of tea inhaling fresh air gazing at the beautiful mountain behind my home. . With a single 60 watt bulb and the lonely satellite of our planet to light it up, the terrace is the most beautiful place of our small home . We are barely a kilometre from the foothills of the mountain,which houses a lonely temple at its top. 10 years ago, there was hardly a green patch in this gigantic mountain. Thanks to the efforts of  jakki vasudev, the mountain has turned greener and we no more feel its radiations during hot summer. In ten years time, I am pretty sure that this mountain becomes as green as any hill in Yercaud. It is very hard to accept that I have to leave my hometown in three or four years time.
I am just wondering what sort of creatures those non returning Indians are!! It is shocking to know that 80% of Indian students going abroad for studies never return back to India.  How can they miss their homes, their families, their loved ones for the sake of stupid careers? What sort of bloody satisfaction do those American dollars and British pounds give them? What makes them run blindly behind money ? What are they going to achieve in life by means of huge bank balances ? Leaving their aged parents in loneliness and not attending them even during their last days, what really drives them is quite a mystery.
Only donkeys can eat paper money.

This single letter is going to be so influential in my career and life. The Students Quality Club is pretty interesting. The concepts of Quality , and the joy and pain of team work kindles the flame in me to become a leader. Even if I had been a member of some other club or forum, I would not have had this much satisfaction.  I feel like am at my school with my people when I enter this SQC building. Thanks a lot SQC!!

Antha arabi kadaloram

Despite a very long travel , poor organization and a worse food crisis for vegetarians, goa IV is certainly one of the best things in my life so far. A terrific rain in goa, saturday being a holiday in the oceanography institute(our iv spot), the DJ nite at cruise , the restaurants which price beers at Rs.15 and water at Rs.20, the beautiful train journey along the konkan coast , the mind blowing journey standing at the steps of the train,screaming something. yelling O's and Aaaaa's for almost everything. ( My favourite one was "EF batch attu figure ku oru aaaa podu") , watching Narasimma movie in bus, going for a trekking and reaching the top of a hill to have a look at the centuries old caves, shooting of narasimma-2 with anand sir and sayeed sir. Hmmmmmm.. These 5 days will never come back again in my life.

He is the great man who stood up against almost every hurdle in his life. His poems can guide you in times of difficulties and when your confidence level is low. I can proudly say that I have read the works of this great Indian. Thanks to puducheri Government which has come out with a website in his name.I have no qualification to speak about this hero .
