My lovely Varsha....

I met her out of the blue. We talked and I just don't know how soon we grew over the other in affection. In matter of days we became verrrry close. We talked music, we talked music, and we talked about music.... carnatic all the way and some of movies. We were probably destined to meet. She was studying law, and lived in the hostel. If she could turn on her microphone while talking to me, if it was sensitive enough, I would have heard a soft continuous 'C' note which we term as 'Shruti' in Indian music. I asked Varsha how she finds the hostel environment. She said she cant sing aloud or play her music louder and get shouted down by her roommates. When no one is around, she plays them and enjoys. I asked her further more about the hostel. She put me on hold for few minutes and came back to tell me that she had to suddenly kill the 'C' note that was going on for long. I asked her how she did it. 'I followed the note and slapped it on the wall' she said...

TED: Ideas worth spreading....

I picked up this wonderful weblink from one of my friends' favourite video. Fascinating is the Indian student's brain that otherwise wouldn't have 'exposed' as much as he did at MIT. Watch Pranav Mistry and his unique 'idea' of combination of devices that is defined by him as your 'other sense.' 'Jai Ho' to such Indians wherever they are! For other Ideas, go watch in TED

unGandhi media

If anyone else does what Varun did, no one takes a note of it. I wonder if Varun is the pawn for Congress to play against BJP this time? Somehow even the media is happy in supporting the Congress unquestioningly, as they always do. And for the BJP, they have never seem to have matured to handle all this. They have to do a lot more to contain their image. Giving in easily to blood sucker congressmen puts them in awkward situation always. Talking 'secularism' will stop soon. It would have retained its true value if it was sparsely used...

India votes for Religion or Performance?

It's no big deal accusing Varun Gandhi for his rhetoric against muslims. It's nothing new from what we have known for ages happening with BJP. This happens everyday, with everyone. But when it happens with BJP or Sangh, it becomes a cover story that can run huge business for newsmakers. This is known to us too. No big deal! Only weapon against BJP, if you have to put them down in the times of elections, is to grab the 'communalism' slogan. You get support from all quarters who are against Sangh and BJP, and whoever is even remotely 'Hindu' associate. What is the effect of this newsmaking? Every news channel highlights the communalism of BJP, and has absolutely nothing to talk about performances of the Central government or their ministers of State or about their beejaasuraas (one seed of demon begets million such demons.) Ok so what is achieved finally? One point issue. Communalism. Everytime the same story. What is anymore big about this deal?!!!! They do not h...

Atal Bihari Vajpayee's quotes of TRUTH

He made these statements many years ago. But it proves to be TRUE today. " Global interdependence today means that economic disasters in developing countries could create a backlash on developed countries. " " Broadly speaking, Pakistan knows where al Qaeda and the Taliban are. " " If Pakistan implements the assurances given to us, a new beginning can be made. " " The overwhelming public sentiment in India was that no meaningful dialogue can be held with Pakistan until it abandons the use of terrorism as an instrument of its foreign policy. " " The terrorist organizations operating in Kashmir are closely linked to al Qaeda and other jihadi organizations directly supported by Pakistan. "

Sex is above Religion!

Ex-nun's confessions set to rock Kerala Church Shaju Philip (IE. Feb 19, 2009) Whatever the religion is, can you ever stop the human lust? I will not judge this episode plainly based on the news. There could be a bigger story behind this. And the pity is, India is tutored about 'culture' by the likes of people who are culprits in this episode! Check your own house first... If this can happen in a holy place, what can happen in pubs? What would then be happening at various organizations run by them in the name of 'service'?! I can now question them all these, like how they do at Hindus religiously almost every other day. Read on Wikipedia
