How Difficult is it to be happy with what you have!

I now realize it how materialistic I have become. There seems to be no contentment in what all I have.. There is always this feeling of having more n more n more.. Where does it stop..!!!

May be this world is not a place for those who are contented... Not sure about it!

As a rule...man is a fool.

May be this is because I've not yet got what I dreamt of years back! lots of money..That's why my dream is still in progression.. Though there has been a slight moderation.. in terms of being happy and content and looking forward to today and tomorrow while in a state to earn that doesn't keep me devoid of anything I wish for..

May be that is why a career means.. There should always be a tomorrow and hope of something better.. I'm happy that I have that in my lyf..to the least. Enough for now!!

Premium Gods You have really become a tough-reach! Is it our sins or insecurities.. or something entirely different that I’m not yet aware of at my present level of Emotional Maturity? ... ...These thoughts have started penetrating my soul since day before yesterday when I stood for around 6-7 hours in the queue for Tirumala-Tirupati Lord Balaji' s Darshan.  Before my intent & message in this post becomes contextually incorrect, let me clarify that I was not at all affected by the wait-time. Because, I’m such an astute believer of Transcendental Powers, and I believe God exist. And these temples are really places where you go seeking their blessings. This needs a lot of efforts both physically & emotionally. And I'm really always ready to endure because the endurance is what magnifies the overall transcendental experiences. So, coming back to the wait-time let me first explain the title of my Post first..! I’d like to Define Premium God a...

How Will You Measure Your Life?

How Will You Measure Your Life? A wonderful work I found on HBR... and the forum that it created.. I'm still in the awe of these wonderful people around! Thank you  Clayton  for reminding us in such a brilliant and clear way that life is multidimensional; and for bringing sense to it. It is easier to hold on to your principles a 100 percent of the time; but whether or not THAT is the right/better thing to do - must be subject to the scrutiny of your very principle.  After all, its our moral frigidity that creates conflict, prevents co-existence and tolerance and brews superiority and judgement. The choice and successful pursuit of a profession is but one tool for achieving your purpose. But without a purpose, life can become hollow. Ironically, a man realizes the true meaning of his life only after the stark realization of its transcience. If more people follow the path of their heart rather than the crowd mentality of commercial success, the world would be...

Random thought on the occasion of Women's day!

I so very much know that "woman is the glory of creation" ...and the value that woman brings along with her on the planet earth. Beyond all the obvious projections of her being a so selfless.. Mother, Sister, Friend, Girlfriend, Daughter, and may be many more... I am forced to analyse it beyond all these manifestations... by taking some real life references and stark situations. The idea behind the celebration of Women's Day was to showcase equality for women, but even now women are not treated with equality. Just the other day I was trying to get a rickshaw - already late for work and none of these miserable autorickshawwallahs were in sight. Five minutes pass. A triplet of college girls arrive to my left. Finally I see a rickshaw in sight and I'm waving at him like a madman. The SOB totally ignores me and stops for the females. And these females gladly step in and go off to their destination, which will probably be a college where they will sit outside and have ...
