Random Thoughts...


Sitting down to pen my thoughts

Thoughts entangling flurry of emotions

Emotions filled with tint of bloom and joy

Joy with the hope to sustain

Sustain for eternal life

Life of dreams with gleam and glory

Glory to outshine beauty of  naive soul

Soul with brim of innocence 

Innocence spreading smiles to miles

Miles to reach to encompass my scattered thoughts...

Wholehearted Tribute to Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji 🙏🙏🙌



With approaching  100th post here, and celebrating 100 years Birth Centenary of great Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji - can not have more beautiful coincidence and more beautiful reason to pay tribute to the great man, great saint of this century.
Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji was the tenth Guru of Jain Shwetambar Terapanth Sangh, born in a small village Tamkor in Rajasthan, inspired by the religious inclination and spirituality of his mother, decided to enter monk hood at the early age of ten. And from there onward started his journey of  enlightenment. He was fortunate to receive the guidance of Acharya Shri Tulsi which led to acceleration of his intellectual development.
His life was a great inspiration in every sense. One of the mantra of Mahapragya ji was 'Walk, Acquire, and Give' - also quoted by our former president Late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, who was also influenced by him. Walk signifying travel continuously, Acquire is to gain the knowledge and Give symbolizing giving and contributing whatever you can to the society. He was the greatest preacher of Ahimsa and throughout his life encouraged people to follow the path of Ahimsa. He was a firm believer that the root cause for all the problems prevailing in the world such as crime, poverty, pollution, war, etc. is brutal and violent thinking. The spark of  Ahimsa ignited by him speeded across the nation. Per him, Non Violence and Ahimsa would lead to world peace, all harmony, mental health therapy, and morals and can turn out to be life changer. Currently where the world is terrorized by the pandemic Coronavirus, Mahapragya ji had spoken about this in one of his speeches 50 years ago that if there will be so much of violence in the world, then the war will not happen through arms instead it will be from virus.
Acharya Shri came up with the solution of Ahimsa Yatra, and covered thousands of Kilometres journey on foot to advance the principle of Non Violence and Ahimsa.
His aura and persona was that of a great scholar but he never got a chance of attaining any formal education. He laid the foundation of courses like 'Science of Living'  which aimed at improved efficiency in studies and better  concentration and stress management. Also, Mahapragya ji was a proficient writer and has authored close to 300 books. His work dealt with meditation, spirituality, human psyche, Yog and Sadhna, Mantrasadhna, and much more. Also he had strong command on subjects like philosophy, economics, politics and that too has written with equal depth and power in these subjects as well. His vision could be seen by his work. He has also co-authored one book with former President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam named as 'The Family and the Nation'. Mahapragya ji extensively believed in Preksha meditation, same can be read in many of his books, he firmly practiced meditation along with its different techniques.
Birth and Death are very normal, not in our control but what is vital is life. Life full of influence, service, sacrifice and meditation. And that is how Mahapragya ji's life was. All his teachings are still alive among us. Heartfelt homage to such Mahapurush Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji.

Below is the video showcasing our honorable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi, paying tribute to Acharya Mahapragya ji on his birth centenary.
Amidst all the tensions prevailing due to Indo China attack resulting into violence everywhere, the silent and balanced approach chosen by our PM to speak for the great saint Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji who showed and preached the path of Ahimsa and Non violence - is worth a praise and deserves a big salute.

My first flurry :)

Building this post from my beautiful memories. An experience I wanted to jot down since quite some time. And let me tell you, the amount of joy and excitement I was infused with, at that time, I can still recollect it all. Seeing Snowfall, though might look to be minute wish, but was something that I had wanted and waited  to envisage since my childhood and finally got the opportunity (yes would call it a 'golden chance') on my U.S visit. Not just one extreme but many many in series. That's the glory of staying  in a State that is known to throw freeze warning off and on with the minimum temperature crossing  '-40 degrees centigrade'. Yes, that's true.
Well, let me quickly jump on to pour some words encompassing my lovely experience.

 Misty and frosty weather outside, one crazy  weekend to ease
Yearning for that wintry chill, wait of years to accomplish
Finally appeared tiny flakes dropping, draped in all white
In elation I leaped sneaking through the pane, staring with amaze
Rushed through my closet to cover with furry fleece and boots, not to forget gloves and hat
Straight ran down for wider view, spreading my arms to feel the delight
Tender and fluffy hail I started to play with, juggling the snowballs all with joy and thrill
Flurry it was such soft and cuddly, falling one by one to kiss the land gently
Loved the lasting of fall for the day whole, it was my first after all
Underneath the snowy sky, standing to capture the sight, craving for the perfect shot
Racked up  the courage to request the anonymous for few clicks, was something not to be missed 
Riding with glee and waiting for more, thinking of the magic of nature
Yes that was my encounter with blanket of snow, time now to head to dreams that come true..!!!

Human without Humanity???



With so much happening around , looks like 2020 should already be termed as year of turmoil. So much negativity prevailing, every day we are waking up to some shocker or the other. Especially since when this Corona thing has started, it seems like world peace is alarmed. We are waking up to the news of increasing death toll across the globe, migrants battle,  forest fires, border tensions,  locusts attack, cyclone warnings, shaky earthquakes, riots, racism attacks, mass protests, mayhem, and what not- all leading to disaster. Still people are instilled with enough courage and hope that they can fight all this, adopting all safety measures they would emerge as true warriors, this pandemic is not as deadly as it was thought. Every one is running behind a crucial agenda of saving human lives and that's what we have been taught. The global economy coming to a standstill ,worldwide business facing crisis because they say life is of utmost importance, hence all infeasible efforts to save humans.
But, amongst all this, am just forced to question myself, will human count to any value without  littlest of humanity being left. Yes, and I think this is the ask of the hour and each one us should be posing to same quest from within our inner selves.
Woken up to the below piece of news today which totally led to a wave of utter shock, totally unbelievable and brutal act by  a group of monsters who call themselves humans
"A pregnant elephant was fed cracker stuffed pineapple by unidentified people in Kerala which exploded in her mouth, damaging her jaw and eventually took her life."
Just imagine the amount of grieving and pain the poor life had to undergo just because she was speechless, she was hungry, she was innocent, and after all she was just an animal??? Has Human  become this superior today that he can take life out of any living soul?? How can one even think of committing such a heinous crime?? At this point, can't visualize anything more inhumane and cruel that can happen.The act has surpassed all the limits of barbarism. Have we completely lost humanity?? Right to Education is being questionable when such heart wrenching incidents occur in the state that accounts for literacy rate of 93%, the state that is known as 'Gods own country'.  Sheer irony it is, all education and morals leading to such immorality. With the lack of empathy and kindness, nobody deserves to be called as human. There would be no purpose of saving population just for the sake. We have no right to hurt any existing life on this planet. These innocent souls have looked upon us since ages for food, shelter and all support we have provided to them. We can't lose that trust and let such ruthless incidents to happen.Search is still on for those heartless monsters, definitely they must be having the devil's horns on their heads. 
 Considered myself a thick-skinned but such horrified incident has perplexed me to vent the agony and unfortunately we do not have any solution. This is so much disturbing. Can just wish for the guilty to be punished soon with the worst possible way exposing to strictest of the laws. We can't let go such vicious crimes of betrayal. Justice needs to prevail at any cost.

Passion vs Profession??

This piece of mine can be treated as a random ranting or rambling . A general perception that led to the flow of series of thoughts.
'Engineer by chance and blogger by choice' - read a tagline or let me be true to you all, I somewhere feel this for me. And same could be story of many.
This is an age long battle, strongest of the dilemmas to follow passion or not, and seems to be a reality check now. Always there has been a thick line difference between passion and profession. But despite that many of us in fact most of us tend to give up our passion. And I completely follow it's one of the toughest choice indeed and thus has been a chapter for strong debate over years. We are bound to enfold our dreams knowingly or unknowingly. Because the fight always has been is what we love will not pay us as much.  So eventually one has to chose between passion and pay , pay to yield benefits that may support  good living. This leads to burial of innumerable dreams. But always we should not stand to blame anyone, as there might be valid set of logic behind this for most of the cases. Various factors contributing  the inclination towards booming professions and career options may include parental pressure, peer pressure, financial liabilities, responsibilities, late realization, and other related situations. Though 'pressure' is the only one here which might be dreadful. But, the end result is that the passion is crushed somewhere in the journey, journey in the pursuit of success. Though we may have to pay a heavy price and face endless struggle in the race of reaching new heights, and of course many fail in the same as well. The one question we need to ask ourselves is that is this the right parameter to measure success. How long one can sustain leaving behind the undone dreams and aimlessly running behind money. Though success thus achieved is capable of fulfilling the needs but the joy is very short-lived indeed. The contentment and the feeling of self accomplishment  achieved on pursuing passion is definitely incalculable. But pondering upon the factors that led to choose the career path can not be ignored even. If not always, many a times, the helplessness and compulsions traverse us to unusual path. And if that's the scenario, barring any sort of pressure, I personally don't think there's any wrong in choosing the way out  that would assist in paying the bills which in turn holds true essence for the survival. Keeping in mind that one is able to seek absorption in the chosen path thus possessing relevant skills which would be needed to be engrossed and achieve delight. In short all efforts to be made so that the interest keeps on dwelling. This may sound stupid though. Amongst all this, the point to be emphasized here is not to forget our passion, if within ourselves we hold perseverance to achieve big, we should be capable enough to keep that dream alive, though taking it as a parallel rather than mainstream job. So, to my belief it's never late to revive the lost passion, why letting it perish.
But yeah, highly fortunate are those who are privileged to make  worthy livings out of passion.

Taking best out of CORONA..!!!

With the ongoing pandemic Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) hard hitting the entire world, several critical steps are being taken by the governments of all the impacted nations to slow down and eventually stop the transmission of the virus. Few specific terms we've been prominently hearing now are Quarantine, Isolation, social distancing, Lock down, face masks, hand wash, etc. And  owing to the factors such as contagiousness of the infection ,no such treatment or vaccine being available as of now, the exponentially growing active cases, and increasing death tolls, it's really high time that people understand the severity and seriousness of the spread and strictly observe the prescribed guidelines.
The 21 day imposed lock down might seem to be burdensome to many, agreed that we are not used to confine ourselves into restricted boundaries, but this is the ask of the hour and the only solution at the moment to break the infection chain and defeat this deadly virus , also proclaimed by the experts.
Just wondering that if this lock down period and self isolation can be utilized in introspection and sharing the thought process on some of the areas. Also the intent lies in reflecting positivity. Penning down the few thoughts here.
  • Advice to use face masks - It's recommended that person infected with COVID-19 should wear masks to prevent spreading it to someone else. If we try to dig into Jainism, will learn that the Jain saints cover their mouth with a mesh/cloth/mask aka Muhapatti (mouth cloth) with an intent to avoid inhaling and killing of insects or any living being through the process of breathing. This also prevents any harm done to the microbes. So, I believe that  a certain part of our culture is already compliant to what the whole world is being advised to observe today.
  • Maintaining Social Distancing - this being one of the major factor in order to prevent the spread of COVID. If we take a step back and take a look at our Indian tradition, when there wasn't any western impact, the only way of greeting was a 'Namaste' - with joining hands -which has been adopted by the globe today thus ditching handshakes and hugs.  Also, recently read somewhere that  "When we put our hands together and hold it close to the heart, it stimulates the heart 'chakra'. The 'Namaste mudra' benefits the thoracic region, including the immunity of the lungs", thus with 'Namaste' going viral, definitely it's a sense of pride for us.
  • Appreciating the front line workforce - 'Stay at Home' has become worldwide motto. But there is a force that is available to work and serve to keep the things going in such trying times. Be it the healthcare professionals like doctors, paramedical staff, nurses, technicians, pharmacists, etc., or policemen , civil servants, delivery persons, grocery workers, sanitary workers, media and many more. They all tend to provide essential services and act as first respondents, thus are lifelines in this situation. They truly deserve huge gratitude and heartfelt thanks with immense appreciation.
  • Work From Home - with this lock down, Work from Home/Work at Home feature has emerged as a mandate and not a choice anymore. Many sectors, though observing this for the very first time. This would definitely change the way we have operated , from traditional way of working to getting connected virtually will definitely change everyone's perspective, taking us a step ahead towards globalization, it has much more to offer beyond increased flexibility and productivity.
  • Innovation at its best - with surge in the count of COVID-19 cases, there has been an increase in the need for  isolation facilities - Indian Railways have come up with an inventive solution to meet this demand. Rail coaches to be converted into quarantine hubs - this would definitely prove to be a resourceful solution that was utmost required in this situation.
  • Changing attitude - Have observed that people are becoming more empathetic towards each other, be it neighbors or family and friends. They are coming forward extending  concern and help in best possible ways during this  stressful situation which in turn is a very positive sign. This quality was gradually shrinking amidst our busy lives.
  • Opportunity for Indian market - COVID-19 has vastly impacted the global economy and has created a huge void by disrupting the supply chain network. With China's production activities getting disturbed -this may create a set of new opportunities for manufacturers  and industrialists esp. Indian market to attract foreign business and investments.
Thus, the list can go on and on with more thoughts to ponder upon. But seems to be good for now. Help the nation fighting this invisible virus by Staying at Home. Unleash your potential, explore your talent, know your inner self, incline towards spiritual devotion, be a supporting hand for family, and most importantly Stay healthy and Take care!

Had an urge to post something..and after turning on the thinking cap for some time, thought of putting up few lines that I had penned sometime back for my Great Grand Father - who has been a true source of inspiration for our entire clan. Though he may not be present among us, but he is the one power that has tied his generations with an intense bond.
Though these are very generic lines but these words are so true that they make me proud - proud to be part of his generation, offers a great learning and motivates me till depth whenever I listen about his stories -be it his business vision or his personal accomplishments.
Had written these lines for the website that is being designed to depict the business goals and lists all the trading firms that are being operated by his multi generation family as of today spread across different parts of the nation.




Shri Pem Chand Ji Baid  an iconic figure from the history of Baid Genealogy, a man with eminent characteristics, conferred with enormous sanity and intelligence.
He was the man bestowed with immense wisdom and intellect. Countless incidents we have heard of, where he exhibited super heroic strength during the times of struggle, always standing as a backbone for family.
Always showcasing patience, he had a very composed personality. All his success stories till date imbibes into the growing minds of his fourth generation of kids, implanting a spark of inspiration. Showering love and affection in abundance was one of his distinct qualities that would be adored by generations.
A flourishing empire enriched with values of harmony and peace is something he always envisioned of. He was the one who valued other members opinion before taking any business decision, and thus gave every one an equal in depth opportunity to think independently. His philosophy and intelligence reflected through the strong business sense he carried. As an outcome we can see that it’s all due to the great learning from him which has let his generations uplift the pillars of success thriving in this world with a weave of skills and competency.
To us, he truly is the man behind the growth of ‘Baid Lineage’. He indeed was a person with silver in his hair and gold in his heart.

Facebookism to Shopaholism!!!

Whether you are a billionaire, multimillionaire or a lay man, one activity to get intrigued with - 'shopaholism'. The sole thing to drive you crazy, and especially in this era where world has shrinked into a small web, we have been provided with the ease of online shopping, the ultimate divinity.
And when coming to celebs, how can we leave behind our very own, Mr. Zuckerberg who has created a revolution in the world of social networking. Yes, got a chance to catch up some chit-chats from Zuckerberg's life through a daily magazine and this time something apart from wall, posts, likes and signing the big Deals.
It was really nice to get a all together different glimpse of the man behind the Facebook.
Would like to mention a small portion over here.

  

Like every man Mr. Mark too has to deal with a series of complications, a list of tantrums and of course a few tit-bits as he owes a lady love in his life. Yes, am talking about his girlfriend. And when it comes to girl friend, even a small demand leaves you in a panic situation at times.
Very simple, it was their Date Anniversary approaching and the very thought of girl friend's list of expectations left Mark with goose bumps. What was the trick applied to gather help?? Any guesses??
An advise was asked via the question posted on Mark's page on Facebook and an assured prize to the best advisory. Wow, sounds a great deal. It seemed people a.k.a. fans turned in a huge number with n number of options and suggestions ranging from visiting the fashion stores to surfing different brands, but the creative one amongst the all has to win the heart. And on reading the idea, believe me I too stood spell bound. I know we all are much aware about online shopping and the flexibility it provides but really not sure how many of us have heard about the one great shopping site where all shopping sites and huge brands are clubbed under one umbrella granting enormous offers and guaranteed discounts. Truly amazing to learn, yes it was 'Baggout.com'. The idea behind this great shopping website just influenced Mr. Zuckerberg and to add ice on the cake his shopping experience with Baggout left a craving in me to log on to the mesmerizing web page as if I have found my destiny. lol - what more a girl can demand for.
Coming back to Mark's shopping mania after he found this 'Baggout'. He could relate himself to one of those luckiest guys upon whom the Almighty showered the power of bliss and joy.
He found out the key to happiness for his girlfriend and had the strong gut feeling that he would be able to make his anniversary one of the finest and memorable. Yes, Baggout could provide that all what his list held. With no compromise in the brands and quality, and great offers and guaranteed returns with quick delivery options. Great in all sense. Mark, thus planned a hefty purchase from Baggout with a wide range from clothing to cosmetics to foot-wears, all set for huge pampering the lady love.
Also, he recommended the use of this ultimate website, especially to people who get stuck in the situation like his. The crisp and clear method for using 'Baggout' as explained by him just says it all.
Hats off to creators of this master piece  and Hats off to you Mr. Zuckerberg for illuminating us with this fine idea. Much Thanks!!!

My Monday Morning..!!!



A ray of  hope with gleaming sunshine
A vision to lit the lucent mission,
A dream in half naked eyes,
A desire to conceive,
A firm belief  to rise high,
Marks the onset of  my Monday morning!

The flowers ready to bloom,
The birds waiting to chirp,
The dew all set to melt,
All thrilled to welcome Monday morning!

The words unsaid,
The thoughts unread,
The riddles to resolve,
The puzzles to unlock,
The determination to leave back ashes ruthless,
The aspiration  to start afresh,
Filled with new Hopes and Expectations arrives my Monday morning!

Desire to achieve the 'S' Factor!!!

And here ends the week long wait. My plate of Brunch is just incomplete without the Sunday Brunch. For years, Brunch has been making my Brunch spicy with a tint of masala which I can't resist any more.
The Personal Agenda being most revered section of all, I quickly flipped the pages .Ah, here comes the celeb of the week, the beautified persona 'Piggy Chops'. The one thing you want to change in yourself...my eyes went straight to the question number four. 'Hair', I heard my conscience speaking and you know this inner self  always speaks the truth, how bitter it may be. Yes, the very moment I think of my hair, I get submerged into the ocean of worry and fear.What not I've been doing in order to attain the 'S's. The shine,style,smoothness,silkiness,and to keep pace with this emerging fashion the biggest 'S' of all -Straightness.
What these girls do to their hair, what pious tonic they apply, I just keep on wondering.
Have been running from door to door, visiting all consultants from Mr. Habib to Ms. Luthra. Exhibiting a sincere attitude, have used  wide range of hair grooming material - shampoos, conditioners, masks, serum as per recommendation.But, my hair needs some magic wand to be rolled upon.
And, do you also think on similar lines like my mom ? She thinks that, I'm least bothered to care for my hair, according to her there are enough of natural remedies to be used in order to get the hair straightened and smoothen, and she is just hard to convince for any of these chemical oriented treatments,  as per her these are just meant to damage the nature's gift. Oh, to hell with this gift. Let me tell you, how much efforts I've put in for gaining the 'S' factor, and still all your tips and suggestions are most welcome, I beg of these.
I've tried the craziest and wierdest existing idea that has emerged into this brain factory, with complete help from the various sources I've known. But Alas, all my experiments turned out to be futile so far.
Have been a true Tech-savvy in this context, using all medium of techno networking available at glance, ranging from all sorts of electronic, digital to paper media.
The Internet being most reliable of all sources, gave me an endless list of remedies , going through each I dreamt of straight, smooth and silky hair, the perfection for which I've been longing for.
But, useless.I tell you, all these posts in 'Search' context are meant  to fool the innocent faces like me. Sigh..!
Not even a single known magazine I've left so far, It seems everything in this world can be summarized to3M - money making medium.

Our very own God- the Google who claims to know every single thing in this world, says- Honey - It works as wonder - the natural hair straightener. Apply honey to hair strands,leave it to dry, go for a hair wash and you'll be amazed by the results. Yes, you were true , results just left me surprised and shocked. All I was left was with glu on my hair, the stickiness took days to get off. huh!





 'Fasting and Yoga for straight long smooth hair'  read the Title of  the monthly edition of Nirogdham's article.Fasting for hair, sounds foolish, isn't it?

Me being a great foodie, fasting and me are just opposite poles, but when it comes to my hair how could I ignore this mantra.And exercise, am a big lazy bone, but hair, I want them as shiny and straight. The regime constituted living on a salt free,sugar less diet for a month, skipping a meal every Tuesday , and doing Headstands - an yoga posture - position lowering  head below your body--several times daily (15 minutes each time). I was filled with so much of enthusiasm that I continued the entire activity for 2 months, but sad, all mighty efforts in vein. Not in vein actually, as definitely it must have helped stimulating other parts of body.




Laying down in such a way that your hair fall on an iron table, and ironing the hair. This sounded a bit illogical but technically good idea. My mom came screaming with all force from the world, "Ironing your hair, gosh you are going to burn your head now". I know mom, this sounded little vague to me as well but this is all chemical free and with no cost associated and see I've started caring for my hair, I need to straighten them.But to an amateur like me, this one came with a little of straightening effect but not any of the other  'S' factors and even missing the quality of straightening I wished. Believe me, I've no guts to give it a try for the second time, requires a huge expertise to put the hot iron on your head.

Let your hair lose and do some jumping and hip-hopping. The air in the surrounding will make your hair go straight  leaving them silky as ever. Laughing out loud, don't remember from where I got this tip, but was worth a try. 



'What you eat is what you are' I quoted somewhere and have heard it holds true for your body and skin, then it should apply to your hair as well, I pondered. Noodles, the very next thing striked me, and to add to it my mind started picturing Chinese girls, how straight and smooth hair all of them have. God, I figured out the reason, there was no limit to my excitement. Noodles,noodles and noodles, how on the earth these china folks survive, munching noodles may or may not give noodles shape to my hair but led to a severe impact on my digestive tract.


And thus the list of my wacky experiments with my hair  goes on and on.
Of  lately , have heard that 'Sunsilk' who believes that 'Life can't wait' is about to come up with Hair straightening solution in order to end my wait. Fingers crossed, my last hope!!! Just waiting for the Sunsilk Expert Range to hit the Indian stores.
All I desire is the 'S' Factor. Am I really too demanding ??


Oh God please help me!

This Post was intended for Sunsilk 'The Straight hair Experiment Contest' on Indiblogger. , but some how I missed the deadline. Never-mind :)

Risking---Mantra of Life!




Amidst the peaks and valleys,
Browsing through highs and lows of Life
craving for that very strike of success
the path is not as evident as it shows

duality it offers to chose
Risk is in which optimism you should owe
Fear never Ventures any
Learn to play with adventures

Feat and Defeat  should not be the reason to aback
for each has a substantial dominance
never reckoning to aftermath of regret and bruise
evolving with the tower of learning
in the end, you'll be the one
upholding the beacon of triumph..!

I live with your vision!


Sighting  through you,the world in whole
I've been living my years with you
Together we've seen the times and tides
the glory of shine and hue.

Since the days of my innocence  
you came in as spirit of togetherness
adding a magic to my vision,
just raising my perception
playing with you  as fancy,
treating you as a blessing,
as you became the essence of my survival,
attached to the tag of my identity.
have grown with you, owing you as a adored possession
for you,  i ought to have an obsession 
you gonna show me entire sphere,
you gonna bring hopes to my dreams and desires,
you gonna make my mission clear.

Thanks in plenty for being with me,
 promising to be my persistent part
for taking me on the ride to explore this universe,
for showing me mighty's  enchanting creation,
for making me live this life with your vision,
for you are my true companion,my dainty spectacles.!

Donate Blood...Save Life...Make a Difference...!!!


Have you ever thought that you can help in saving a life. Yes, you can really be a saviour for someone counting breaths. Doesn't this sound something miraculous. Many of you must have been donating blood from time to time or as required. But I still feel we need to spread the awareness among the lot. This reminds me of a saying - 'Be a blood and organ donor. All it costs is a little love'. What if we can spread some kindness, which in turn can make a difference in some one's life. Believe me, the feeling is marvelous, a deed done totally out of generosity and goodness, for the welfare of others. I experienced the same recently, though for the very first time. Found that, have really missed something. Just reciprocating my feelings and perception over here. All you need to be hale and hearty, and must thank the mighty for blessing you with supreme health. Let's make an attempt to gift a life to some one who is solely striving for it.Believe me the feeling of giving is different within itself, so why deprived from such a benevolent act. Give a thought..:)
Stay Healthy. Save Life..!

Integral essence of day,
lying there quantum of letters read and unread
News from all spheres, morning messages , jokes to laugh ,
and information momentous it encloses
Bridging the gap between miles,
marking the tip and toe of a day
Ongoing action of composing and receiving,
running round the clock,checking from time to time
Xeroxing or scribbling, Creativity to compass,
articulating thoughts new , wait n hope keep it alive..!

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile...

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile... Yes, this was the mere thought that drove me towards the program - 'U-CARE Friendship Program'. Much Thanks to my organization for giving me such a striking opportunity, a scope to enlighten few hearts , a chance to meet few kids from 'Vidya' - a NGO School. All it required is to charge those naive faces with the spark of confidence, with the wings of courage..to nourish their dreams , to up bring their desires..!
Every fortnight, how I urge to get an hour out of my monotonous work schedule, to meet those faces, to mentor those tiny tots. Can't express the smile they bear, the innocence they outburst with. It gives me a feeling of immense satisfaction, an sense of doing something, by putting in bare minimum efforts though. Believe me, these kids have enough in them, the talent to outburst, the only thing they need is to show them a ray of hope, an illusion of right direction.
To showcase, I've an instance. How the loud voiced ambitious learners demanded every one's attention , the words are still dancing in my head, enough they had to share about their experience, with us so far. Leaving behind the hesitation, each one could stand to address the class.
"I love this place. My knowledge has increased .I've learnt tenses, mmm gk, and states. My didi name is Madhu didi. She teach us very well. She makes sure we understand everything. never scolded us. I love to study."
Wow. I feel so glad to hear those words from one of the 6th grade trio of my group.Earning those words is superb, but trust me nothing I have done is out of the world.no struggle, no sweat.
Anything you dislike about this place : "hmmm..yes 1 thing . (ceegrate peena.. what it is called ? ..smoking,I replied). When we came i saw few people near gate smoking. it looks very bad."
Just imagine, how sharp they are to sense the fact.
Can we say something to every one..the chorus blew up: "We wish you and your family a very happy Diwali. We love you all".
Lost was the stumbling and so was the shyness.

Love you little kids..!!!
Proud to be associated with you all..!!!
Keep going and God bless...!!!

All we need is to infuse more spirit and spread more smiles. To touch few hearts and to shower the kindness.To teach in few and to learn a lot. A minute effort to make a difference, an utmost desire to inspire some one dream high.

Let us come together and do something to Make some difference.
Reiterate the great words by Mahatma -
"Be the change you want to see in the world"

Let us spread the aura of love and compassion all around.
Reminds me of lines by Hannah Moore
"Love never reasons but profusely gives; gives, like a thoughtless prodigal,
its all, and trembles lest it has done too little."

So, why not we can make a an effort to give something to our society , a bit of what we have achieved.A sense of giving is something that soothes us at the end of the day, isn't it?

SBT City Walk..An Experience to quote..!!!

Have you ever thought of walking down across the streets of Delhi and that too in an early hour of Sunday morning. Yes we were wide awake, to experience the break of dawn. The purpose was to cherish the rising dreams visible in the eyes of a young street boy, the dreams as vibrant as those city lanes he took us to. The walk was supposed to be led by the guide of the day -Ajay alias Max-as he loves to be called as. The journey started through the backstreets of Delhi, followed by his experiences, his attachment with the place as couple of his childhood years were spent on the same streets. What bought him there, how he'd spent his life , what odds he'd faced, how and what led to transformation in his life, were some tit-bits of instances being shared by him. So it was more of a walk towards the memory lane for him, 'Walking the past in the present'.
Ajay was one among those thousands who chose railway station as a mere shelter for them, having no clue of home or family. Drug addiction, starvation, pick-pocketing were something that came as part and parcel for Max during that period of life. As it's well said that 'every dog has it's day', there came a turning point in his life. His face shone with glitter of pride as he mentioned how SBT discovered him. Max continued by telling about his transformation from a drug addict then, to a chocolate lover now, from bullying around then to spending his hours in learning now. Yes, he is entirely transformed, a change leading to betterment of society, a change which could be felt. Ajay has a strong mission now, the power to chase his dreams. He has left behind his past and moving forward, not only earning today but studying and learning foreign languages as well, which was highly remarkable and solely motivating for us. A clear vision could be seen in his eyes when he told his dream to become a train driver, owing to his deep attachment for providing him roof. His deterministic attitude while sharing his future plan to go abroad for higher studies, is something worth mentioning. His words were an eye-opener for us, his story was a spark enough to ignite us. The way he expressed, the confidence he carried, the smile throughout on his face was enough to leave a strong imprint on everyone's heart.
Followed by few more streets, railway station of course, he took us to one of SBT's shelter homes for small children. It was an awful experience, seeing such small children over there, those innocent faces, all clueless and homeless, surely insisted us to think about the cruelty of life. It was a totally incomparable experience, spending some time with those 'bundle of joys' who splashed the aura with their talents.
SBT, you deserve an applause for restoring the world of childhood, taking them from a dark end towards the brightness of new learning, showing a ray of new hope.This is indeed a marvelous effort.!!!
P.S. - 'Salam Balak Trust' City Walk is a program that aims at making us aware about the street life through the stories of street children who'd lived their lives through these streets, and thus it's a unique way of providing an insight into the lives of these children and an opportunity for them to improve their communication and speaking skills.
