Intention + Action!

Namaste everyone, you know people always support a lot of things. Their intention is very good, but unforunately, that's not how it works.
Just having a good intention, is it enough? You need to act isn't it? Need to do something which clearly displays that you are doing what you intend.You know a poor thief, has a good intention, he just wants to steal medicines for his health? Is it okay?
You know if you are thirsty, and you intend to drink water, but you are too lazy to walk to the Kitchen!Is it fine? You know maybe after 13 years , if you are not lazy enough, if you walk to your kitchen for a glass of water. You have a full glass of water, and suddenly 50% of water in your glass dissapears? How does it feel? Maybe you can try it out on a day when you are very thirsty. This is a fact, by 2030 India will have only 50% of water required for Survival.

We are a democracy, it is for us to stand up and act towards something! How long can you hide behind and say, I really support ,but I will not be able to participate in any way?

We need the right Intention + Action. Just intention ,may not be enough to take us anywhere!
Rally For Rivers is campaign by the the people, for the people, let us all support in some way!

P.S. From the Border Forces to celebrities, Everyone is supporting Rally For Rivers, let us do the same!

Miss you Maa!

My grandmother's life revolved around her family, whether it was shopping for her grandchildren, planning for their weddings, doing evening Bhajans with them. The family was her central locus of operation, from keeping tally of house expenses, daily pooja, visiting temples, traveling. 5 years ago she had a paralytic attack which left her left leg paralyzed, she was able to recover from it with her strong will power but it was never the same, a couple of months later she started showing symptoms of dementia and Parkinsons, her dinacharya and responsibilities took a toll though she never gave up doing Hanuman Chalisa and Sunder Kand every day. We still managed to go out at least once a month for a temple visit along with eating her favourite food Paani Puri outside. In 2019 we went for a small pilgrimage to Kanchipuram along with her and some of my relatives for darshan of Athi Varadaraja Swamy when he was raised from Amritha Saras which happens once in 40 years, unlike us she couldn...

Sabarimala,Women and Menstruation!

All right, so this issue of women of menstruating age, aren't allowed to enter the Sabiramala Temple, and the recent judgement which comes as a relief to the previous blunder of defying the practice. When movies like Padman, Toilet are released worldwide, it gives us an idea of what the general mentality of people is, with respect to hygiene and menstruation , in modern day India. Though it is sad to look at , what's even more depressing is the take on the situation prevelant, trying to potray it as a culture which considers menstruation as something impure, women a class lower to men. It is indeed disappointing to see all the cultural failures, when people fail to recognise that the Kamkhya Temple,Assam where the devi here is worshipped in the form a Yoni. They celebrate the Ambubachi Mela, a festival marking thedevi going through her annual mensuration cycle. A culture where menarche is celebrated in many places across India as Ritu Kala Samskara, whe...

Where is this thing called peace?!

Namaste everyone,this being my first post on my blog,I would like to share something on peace. Everyone in this world are looking directly or indirectly for peace,not ultimately but yes.Everyone in this world deserves to be peaceful,yet it is not so?Have we ever thought why?Let me be clear that when we talk about peace it is not siting quietly in meditation, it is the state of being stress free,whether while working or eating or whatever work it is! So let us get back to the question,what is stopping us from being peaceful? From not finding car keys, to exams, to day to day work, to rocket science,there is something which is not letting us be peaceful? So what is this something, it is our own attitude towards Peace! NO Peace and KNOW Peace, both sound the same,both may look to be different,but are they really different? Just knowing about Peace is the same as NOT knowing about peace, only if we are able to live by so, only then KNOWING and NOT KNOWING about Peace ...

Sexuality and The Divine!

It is the sad reality of modern India, that we have become subservient to Western/ Victorian Morality, we are slowly turning into such sick hypocrites that it is difficult to even start a conversation, in these lines. So, if a thirteen-year-old boy/girl who has just hit puberty, getting into their teens and they go to watch a movie with an intimate sex scene playing right out there, what to do you expect? You expect the boy/girl not go get aroused, not to think in those terms, just watch it like it is a passing scene, act like they are 40-year-old grown-ups? It is not very simple as it sounds, what is it that is the repercussion, consequence of it? Either you accept the western way, accept that intimacy in teenage is quite common, and it's all right to choose that path, or are you looking at it from a point of view that it's not the right age, and maybe hence not morally just, to choose it. But herein lies the problem, you don't have the guts to debate either of th...

Free of Cost?!

I was at my office and a lady walked in, started her story of how she came to Bangalore with her children and husband and, how she is staying at the railway station, and needed some money. She trying to play the emotional victim, threw at me a list of people who have given her 100,200 rs each. I just asked her one question, what have you done in the last 4 days to find a place/job to work? She tried to reinstate her community card and I was adamant at the question. All the drama stopped, she took her piece of paper and walked out with sense of anger. I continued to do my work. You drive to a signal and there's a man dressed in a saree trying to molest you and take some money. Alright in Sanskrit I learnt Puling (male), striling (female) and napunsakling, it is very clear that our ancestors knew that its alright, there was no need to negate or promote it. But now, for what it seems(at least 80% of the cases) is that, it's a very easy way to earn money and moreover on what ba...
