Parenting is one of the four pillars for a country's progression with the other three being Education, Infrastructure and Leadership.
I have been type-casted several times to be Feminist by a Man who would like to see me liberated out of Gender politics...As preposterous as it may seem, I speculate if there is some truth in that inference, I am at a challenge with respect to the virtue and legacy I will pass on to my daughter...
I let my thoughts flow on this subject of Feminism and tried to organize them...
So far I have had a privilege of over hearing the comments, feedback people have towards some of the high profile bollywood movies and mostly the comments can be categoried into just ONE..."Objectification of the lead female actor". People go ga-ga endlessly about the washboard abs, the jhatkas-matkas, size zero and a titillating onscreen kiss...
The script, talent and hardwork is swept under the carpet of a Oomph Quotient...
Today across the cosmopolitan areas, this is a trend...a style statement and a lifestyle option...Women irrationally engage in skin show to draw the attention of Men. The desperation and its long term effects on a woman, family and in a larger sense society's well being concerns me. Wearing a economist hat, I fear the textile mills going bankrupt with the demand of clothing coming down quantitatively. Qualitative degradation is for parents and government to worry about.
I would be infuriated at such comments and would hope to see a Science Invention to cure the Objectophelia in a Man that forces him to see a woman as an object of physical gratification...But even before this I see a gap in parenting here. I would wonder what the parents of boys teach them...Is objectification of women a virtue that is taught in the country that boasts of rich culture and heritage?
A woman is an epitome of love, affection and strength of character...She is a provider...a selfless giver. She manifests as knowledge to compliment the supreme Creator...She manifests as goddess of sustainance complimenting the Primeval Lord of life and she manifests as Power to aid the divine destruction...
She is everything but an object of hormonal gratification...
I would tell my son that a man is a MAN who makes a WOMAN feel like a woman and gives her her true place in his heart...A man needs to aspire for a constructive companionship in a woman that transforms our society responsibly into a healthy environment conducive for individual progression in the path of knowledge...
But I would be wrong if I say that women had no role to play in this objectification process...
At that moment I was reminded of a message my father gave me on the first day I stepped into Pre-University College...He told me I be a woman that a man would want to greet with his hands folded for a salutation blended with humility and utmost respect...
I believe its of primary importance and a responsibility of a woman to conduct herself in a manner that evokes respect and adoration is his heart than arouse the rush of adrenaline into his genetelia.
I would pass on the message from my father to my daughter as a priceless legacy to grow her into a woman who is remembered for her conviction than curves ...
I would encourage a woman to grow as bestower of art, knowledge, love and strength into mankind...
I am not sure if I am a feminist, but I condemn all those actions that lead to objectification of Women...and I would condemn this action irrespective of their gender...

Sacrifice
Sacrifice...The word I loathe the most and the word that has been epitomized by humanity for centuries...a virtue thats in our DNA and heritage...
Sometimes I wonder if people have been in delirium for not making an effort to truly understand the meaning of this word...
I wonder if people have mistook value based priorities or choices one makes in life out of clear rationale, to sacrifices.
9 years ago, I was conditioned to a certain lifestyle while today I have altered to the current context in my life...Have I sacrificed to give in to a nuptial agreement....Not really, its my choice. No one forced me into it and my choices though changed from what they were are totally mine. I value them and stand by them with integrity. From the inconsequential Rice to the Rise of a Nation, it is people prudent choices that has taken humanity from strength to strength...
Extrapolating this, I wouldn't consider the acts of Lord Rama or his devotional follower Mahatma Gandhiji's acts as "sacrifice". But it was their conviction to stand by a value and a larger cause. I haven't come across any evidence of remorse from Lord Rama or Gandhiji's biographies. That clearly implies that they weren't forced into a choice, but they stand today in our hearts as men who symbolize strength of character and courage.
People have three sides to them.
"What they are"
"What they think they are"
"What others think they are"
Most part of our lives is lost in striving to be what others want us to be. Whilst we do that, we are oblivious of the fact that the others are also striving to be what some others want them to be. So each one is wanting to be someone else's characterization but the result is that these people are entering into a weird deadlock where there is no one with original thoughts, vision and conviction.
Now this is "Sacrifice" for me. I wonder whats with these people and the world. Have they been frolicking around with their most precious asset...their "Individuality" and "Self esteem"...
We are born in this world as individuals powered with an exclusive vision of our own. Letting ourselves to be enslaved into a bunch of pseudo-power-mongers, is a "Sacrifice" of one's vision, integrity and character. It is our own responsibility to hold up for our beliefs and stand by our values derived out of a philosophy or science thats "Absolute" but not the one thats relative or subjective. A person need to strive for his individuality fuelled by his courage and strength of character.
Sacrifice of honesty, integrity, values and character is the SIN for third degree that is weakening this world day by day. Its our responsibility not to let the world affect us in a way to find ourselves crippled by emotions...
Make your own choices and take complete responsibility for your choices in life...don't take refuge under a "Sacrifice" umbrella. Its not sacrifice if its your choice...And if you let others choose for you or coerce you into a choice, it would still be sacrifice for you let yourself give into coercion.
Execution of Vision thats value based with courage and strength of character is the ultimate virtue....else I would term that as "Execution" of YOU!

Navigator
I am in love with Howard Roark...
I just havent come across a honest confession of love such as between Howard Roark and Dominique Francon, the lead protagonists in Ayn Rand's masterpiece "The Fountainhead". The only one which came this close was dipicted by James Cameron on the silver screen between his characters Jack and Rose in Titanic(I am flying scene). But the scene between Roark and Dominique is a moment of exaltation created due to synergy of intellect and emotions with a touch of honesty and selfless love...Such synergies should essentially result in a "Big bang" giving rise to a whole new universe.Howard Roark and Dominique Francon created a new universe with their Strength of Characters coming together. A fertilization of their perfections could give birth to a new species who will be the prime movers of the Earth.
I have made my reservations for a flight from Milky Way to "Objectivism"...I am waitlisted as of now...
On silver screen a magical moment can be created, but to create that on paper needs a Stalwart like Ayn Rand...
So far the kind of scenes that evoked emotions within me and touched my soul are from the genre of patriotism, pedeatrical pain and paradoxical emotions due to separation...But I didnt think in the wildest of my imaginations that I would emote in front of a book as my eyes scanned through the lines that described confession of love between Dominique Francon and Howard Roark.
It brings out a new angle to love which a lesser mortal wouldnt vouch for but an elevated soul surely would.It clearly depicts that you can only fall in love with "Perfection" and reciprocated in love if you are perfect, and nothing less. You can only associate yourself respectfully to "Perfection" and command reciprocation of love if you are Perfect. Expecting to derive love, respect and commitment to an anatomy of imperfections is nonsensical. You just cant love, respect or stay committed to an imperfect being. Isnt this just true? We all go through this. We keep asking questions if we have made the right choice, right decisions etc in life when we are ambushed by life's challenges. Why do these questions keep cropping up time and again? All these days when I was hit by such questions, I would feel guilty and categorize myself into those who cant accept reality or cant *adjust* like other humans. Each time I would run to what I termed "support systems" and try to derive some answers out of them, which kept me fuelling for a while. Later I would give myself an action to constructively work on my calibrations and expectations I have from my associates in this world.
After a while, I would be dragged into this battle field of blue planet with yet another epsiode of saga. I felt like a fish out of water being strangled in this soap opera of life with co-actors who are a bundle of imperfections. With amateur people for support systems, I derived amateur answers that didnt fuel me long enough and I kept refuelling with them irrationally. I had to learn to find my blue ocean with the remaining time my breath lasted.
Interestingly though I found a Navigator who crossed paths with me and showed me the way to my blue ocean. He has selflessly inspired me to find my best support system in our rich Heritage which is a Powerhouse of Knowledge and I had no reasons to run out of fuel when I had to have "GNana" for a Gas Station.
Today I swim joyously...totally rejuvenated...
As I read through our scriptures and Ayn Rand Philosophy of Objectivism, I have been re-affirmed that I cant love lesser mortals. I just havent found a reason convincing enough to do so. Being in love with Howard Roark is an experience of its kind thats novel and the one which I consider blessed to have encountered with. It also raises even a profound question if someone loves me at all since I am not anywhere close to perfection. I am a just a 55kgs of imperfections. But I have set on a journey to seek Gyan towards Perfection...The world of Krishnas, Ramas, Howard Roarks, John Galts is light-years away...and its the toughest path I have chosen for myself. But atleast I am assured of a win someday. I dont know when I will get there, but I am happy to see myself out of the never-ending Marathon amongst rats doing stressful, irrational laps around perishing imperfections...
So the bottom line is "Love is not Blind. Its quite rational. If you blindly fall in love without a rationale, you will find yourself one day reviewing your decision. Probably you will learn to *adjust*, but that doesnt get you to any higher altitudes...Just love Perfection and accept nothing less...Make Perfection a Habit and a way of life..."
I extend my token of gratitude to the "Navigator" of my life who has been key in inspiring me and helping me discover a stronger ME...who has refined her choices, her journey and her destination. I thank him for being insturmental in a gravitational shift of my thought process towards brighter sides of life...

Gold Smith
I am 30 years old. Due to an OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE ABYSS DISORDER I suffered, my mind is half my age. But I didn't want to stop my education using my disorder as an excuse. Also my FATHER thought that GYAN had a power to eliminate the worst of diseases. It was time for me to enroll myself to an institution that would aid education to special species like me. I left my FATHER to make a choice for me as I trusted in his judgment. After completing the procedures, the D day arrived when I would first step into the PRUDENT INSTITUTION.
While stepping into the institution, I had no idea of the disciplines that were offered for a course and neither did I knew my major subjects. The moment I stepped in all I saw was a library. There were no teachers, no classrooms, not even fellow students around me to discuss with. Added to all this, there wasn't even a degree I would be certified with at the time of leaving the institution. All that was there in the institution was a light-house within the library that always flashed light on the book I must read and an audio-visual interface to discuss any doubts/clarifications I may have on the books that were on the light house radar.
I went home to my FATHER that evening disturbed and had a long argument with him as to why I couldn't go to schools like other friends of mine where there was soo much fun, colors, philandering romance, sports, outings etc, essentially covering all the ZING things of life. My FATHER had a smile on his face and asked me what mattered most to me? A piece of paper that certifies me as a professional for having ZING things for 5 long years without even having a grasp to handle challenges life bestows us with or an INSTITUTION that grooms a human into a stronger individual that can handle LIFE with all its attributes. I still trusted my FATHER and went to bed with no further questions.
The next day I stepped into my institution and walked up to the book that the light house pointed. It read "Choices to make in Life". I opened the first page and found myself totally absorbed in it. I used the audio-visual aids to learn all about "Choices to make in life" and how important it becomes for our growth. I didn't feel like going home that evening and stayed back for a special hour (like a special class :-) ) to learn about the attributes, factors we need to consider to make the best choices in life. I went back home nostalgic about the Gyan-room. The influence of the Gyan-room was soo much on me that I kept retrospecting the remaining part of the day through the night on the essential GYAN I had derived. It was inspiring and fuelled me to strive for excellence.
Days passed and the lighthouse pointed at various books that dealt with "Righteousness", " Restraint ", " Confidence ", " Precision ", " Completeness ", " Assertiveness ", "Duty", " Detachment " , " Commitment " , " Strength of Character", " Simplicity " , " Rationale ", " Sense of direction " , "Focus" , " Honesty " , " Integrity " , " Absolute truth" and the subjects list went endless. It's been 5 years in this institution and I am still going strong. I didn't care for any degrees or certificates any longer since being associated with as esteemed and noble institution of this stature was more important than a piece of paper that would get dissolved in a RAINFALL. All I wanted for the rest of my life to remain an honest student of this institution.
I took a day off from the institution to go for my routine check. My DOCTOR was surprised to see my disorder cured magically. I had grown to my age finally :-). I kissed my FATHER's forehead for his guidance and judgment to enroll me to an institution that filled in the ABYSS of 10 years in my life. I stood amidst my friends, family and the entire world strong, shining and pure as a diamond. I had developed the immunity to the diseases in this mortal world and moved on hale and healthy.
I would like to extend my token of gratitude to the Institution of Gyan for bestowing me with all the ingredients to move strongly in life...for refurbishing the lost confidence in me...for being that Gold Smith who ensured I came out of the FIRE as a fine piece of JEWELRY than a burnt metal...
No more to my Pen...

21st Century - Essential Gyan
After a busy day at work, I swiftly packed my bags not to miss the evening Office Cab. I always believe to make the best use of my travel time in peak traffic hours and whats better than to get some evening nap. Unfortunately I couldn't take a nap that day due to the Cab driver's novel fantasy for NOISE transmitted across the spectrum of Frequency Modulation Channels. The loud noise played with equalised bass and treble via a decade old squeaking speakers resonated with the traffic only to result in a conducive environment to welcome pressure onto my blood stream.
As I frowned, my eyes struck farewell procession of a departed soul.I could see the bereaved family members distressingly breaking out uncontrollably to which rest of the world stood relentless. My heart mourned for the family's loss. However I couldn't appreciate the loud behaviour and public expression of pain with a background score of street band, which caused a traffic jam and extensive noise pollution.Friends and family were jumping, roaring, pleading for one last glimpse of their dear one's body and all this sure triggered a thread of thought but I had to put it to standby for the time being as my brain cells were busy processing all the noise.
The Cab moved on to another quick traffic signal that was right opposite to a Marriage hall.Here I experienced a cliched scene where the bride's parents were seeing off their beloved daughter. The bride's eyes surely expressed ambivalence where on one side she would miss her home sweet home she was conditioned from her childhood and on other side a million bubbles bursting out in her stomach in anticipation of a abode where she lives "happily ever after...". Once again I noted two extreme emotions that spawned a sub-thread to the parent thread that was triggered in the previous traffic jam. I had put this also into stand by since my brain was hit by a non-maskable interrupt called NOISE, which totally shuts down my ability to think profound subjects.
As the Cab moved more into residential areas, my ears felt a sigh of relief. Co-incidentally the Cab driver also showed some mercy by switching off the radio. For a moment I couldn't believe if it was silence or my ears just got deaf. But it was not long lasted as I was reaffirmed my ears were hale and healthy as I overheard a love-affair-break-up conversation between a young would-have-been couple. Each protagonist went on with their endless list of complaints as to how the other partner had hurt the feelings, emotions, sentiments and it seemed quite devastating for either of them. I couldn't stop comparing their expectations with the couples of yester years' generations and wondered the evolution of relationships with awe. I was left confused with their theory of right-wrong. I noted the expectations of GenX from each other and the need for instant results.Impatience is the new normal our youth have defined. However I had to thank them indirectly for the Job I have in hand. If not for them,we wouldn't have had Multinationals, nationals, governments world-wide shelling out trillions of dollars year after year just to provide solutions catering to their unreasonable needs.I shamelessly added the take-aways from their conversation to the 12 billion rich data mine my organization owns, which later is processed by the Research specialists for next GEN family of connecting solutions. I also did quietly note the extreme emotion. This was thankfully the last one to trigger another sub-thread to the previous two threads.
Finally some solace to my tired soul as the cab approached the stop near my home. I got home and was treated with a heritage mouth-watering dinner composed of Ragi balls and Spinach sambar. The dinner served a rich source of iron for me to spend the rest of the evening pondering over the stand-by thread.
I retrospected on the various events during my travel back home from work and wondered if a man really needs to experience these extreme emotions. Are we going to swing between extreme happiness and pain all our lives? Can these emotions, feelings, attachments be controlled? Should we let ourselves go through the trauma of pain and loss? Should we be really so excited and attached about various milestones we reach in life as a function of time? Be it love or hate, gain or loss, prosperity or frustration, success or failure, cant we maintain a equilibrium in life that results in long term harmony?
I kept bombarding myself with such questions and I had to seek some answers. I picked up to my white-board to derive a solution.
My life is a Golden triangle comprising of vertices's viz my family, my work and my personal space. I am equally passionate about various dimensions of my life. I zoomed into my family life and I could see a mirror of all the extreme emotions which was no different than the ones I witnessed on my way back home that day. I left it at that and zoomed into my work. I didn't encounter any such extreme emotions in all my career. I found it presumptuous.
Let us put it this way:
I graduated as a Computer Engineer and applied to organizations that would need engineers from my discipline. After being shortlisted from a set of organizations and going through a fair interview process I was pleased to receive offers from couple of Employers. I rationally decided on an employer where I saw a good career growth path for myself. I signed on the dotted line and entered into a legal contract with the Employer. I pledged my loyalty to the organization. In the organization I was governed by a set of rules and regulations, code of conduct and rich values which I followed religiously. I worked hard to learn and put in my best efforts to demonstrate my skills. My core goal was to align with the organization's business goals and achieve the targets with my team. From day-1 I was professional with my colleagues and agreed to disagree. At work I rationally put forward my points without raising personal comments on any individual and always arrived at an amicable solution that's best suited for the business after evaluating the pros and cons. For the success of self, team and organization I maintained my honesty and integrity at all stages and did no compromises for any sort of vested interests. I did not fall for temptations of any sort and stood for the principles the organization believed in. All through as an individual, team and organization we channelized our energy into a positive progression. During successes and downturn we maintained our calm and composure and continued to strive for excellence at all times.
At a personnel level, we cared for each other's growth. We supported and encouraged our colleagues towards success. The team work was celebrated. We rationally shared positive as well as constructive feedback so as to achieve continuous improvement that further translates into better performance of self, team and thereby organization. We did not hold any personal grudge or neither did we offer to do special favours since it was not part of our code of conduct. Year after year I emerged skillful, stronger and smarter in this set up.
At some point due to complacency, I decided to move onto a another suitable organization and into a whole new employment contract. I or my associates did not hold any heart feelings on my leaving the organization and neither I fell in mutual love with the new organization. I did see the best interests of self and the organizations I was part of and going to be part of. I surely did carry the lessons, skills and all my brownie points forward to the new organizations.
In the new organizations at an abstract level its still the same set up but with a positive progression of my roles and responsibilities that I truly deserved due to the efforts I put in all this long in my previous organization. For my growth in the new organization I continued by duties with honestly and integrity.
This system framework amazes me. We are still in a set up that has humans and we have relationships. But at all times we are focused towards our duties. We are rational when it comes to dealing with people and are always governed by the Organization's Code of Conduct, Rules and Regulations, Values all defined clearly by the employer. Roles and responsibilities are executed in a well defined and fair system.
This is the life we lead 9-5. The moment we step out of work we let our heart reel around our head and there begins the ambush from the emotions, sentiments, attachments etc.
The world we live between 9-5 has people who feel, emote and attach and the world before or after it also has people too.
The work life has roles and responsibilities we own and its the same in personal life too.
The difference is when it comes to execution of duties defined by a regulatory body like in an organization set up which is clearly missed by the people when they step out of work.
How I wish we lesser mortals could be pragmatic and apply rationale to our personal life so that we do our duties with honesty, integrity and conviction thereby not letting personal emotions interfere and take control over our sense and sensibility. Now it became important for me to look for a philosophy that defines my duties and also provides a rationale that answers the "Why"s and "How"s I am constantly challenged with in life. I also had to seek for a knowledge that's not based on a theory of relativity of wrong but a one that permanent, accurate and reliable.
Days and years passed but I didn't stop seeking for Absolute Truth. The spiritual journey that has enlightened me with a source of knowledge that exists from eternity and shall exist to eternity. The Absolute Truth that clearly defines are Code of Conduct, Rules and regulations plus a set of Core values. All this is controlled by the eternal controller himself who is fair, just, practical and rational.
When I discovered to such a philosophy, I immediately surrendered to it with all my loyalties. From what I discovered, I realized that my work life professionalism can be mirrored into my personal life since now there is system of Absolute Truth, that governs it and I am a firm believer of such a system.I realized that on this blue-planet I have a social contract with the people I am associated with, be it my parents, spouse, child, friends and other family members. I am playing a role and I execute my duties honestly. At all times I am committed to my growth as a soul. I also dutifully participate in mutual success of the people I am associated with. I do not compromise on my code of conduct and always adhere to the rules and regulations set out by the Omnipresent himself. When I am enlightened with a knowledge that what I share with my folks is a social contract for the period of time I am on this blue planet, I have no reasons to lament. There will come a time when this contract is terminated like in case of an employee having to leave an organization for further growth and prosperity in future endeavors. Similarly the social contract with my family is terminated on the death of my body but I move onto my next birth and a whole new social contract for my future endeavors. I do not let success hit my head or neither let failures pull me down. I continue to learn since whatever had happened is for good and as per what I deserve. I move on...I existed, I exist and I shall exist forever and I do not lament for the social contracts I have to terminate during my course of journey towards absolute truth and hence elevation of my soul true to its nature.
I have learned to stay grounded since this system has taught me a valuable lesson to be empathetic to the world around us. Each living entity has a purpose and a destination and we are left to share this planet for a living. Realization of such a profound truth has motivated me to execute my duties with due respect to the system's guidelines and not let temporary spurious impulses or emotions affect my growth towards knowledge and wisdom.
As I frowned, my eyes struck farewell procession of a departed soul.I could see the bereaved family members distressingly breaking out uncontrollably to which rest of the world stood relentless. My heart mourned for the family's loss. However I couldn't appreciate the loud behaviour and public expression of pain with a background score of street band, which caused a traffic jam and extensive noise pollution.Friends and family were jumping, roaring, pleading for one last glimpse of their dear one's body and all this sure triggered a thread of thought but I had to put it to standby for the time being as my brain cells were busy processing all the noise.
The Cab moved on to another quick traffic signal that was right opposite to a Marriage hall.Here I experienced a cliched scene where the bride's parents were seeing off their beloved daughter. The bride's eyes surely expressed ambivalence where on one side she would miss her home sweet home she was conditioned from her childhood and on other side a million bubbles bursting out in her stomach in anticipation of a abode where she lives "happily ever after...". Once again I noted two extreme emotions that spawned a sub-thread to the parent thread that was triggered in the previous traffic jam. I had put this also into stand by since my brain was hit by a non-maskable interrupt called NOISE, which totally shuts down my ability to think profound subjects.
As the Cab moved more into residential areas, my ears felt a sigh of relief. Co-incidentally the Cab driver also showed some mercy by switching off the radio. For a moment I couldn't believe if it was silence or my ears just got deaf. But it was not long lasted as I was reaffirmed my ears were hale and healthy as I overheard a love-affair-break-up conversation between a young would-have-been couple. Each protagonist went on with their endless list of complaints as to how the other partner had hurt the feelings, emotions, sentiments and it seemed quite devastating for either of them. I couldn't stop comparing their expectations with the couples of yester years' generations and wondered the evolution of relationships with awe. I was left confused with their theory of right-wrong. I noted the expectations of GenX from each other and the need for instant results.Impatience is the new normal our youth have defined. However I had to thank them indirectly for the Job I have in hand. If not for them,we wouldn't have had Multinationals, nationals, governments world-wide shelling out trillions of dollars year after year just to provide solutions catering to their unreasonable needs.I shamelessly added the take-aways from their conversation to the 12 billion rich data mine my organization owns, which later is processed by the Research specialists for next GEN family of connecting solutions. I also did quietly note the extreme emotion. This was thankfully the last one to trigger another sub-thread to the previous two threads.
Finally some solace to my tired soul as the cab approached the stop near my home. I got home and was treated with a heritage mouth-watering dinner composed of Ragi balls and Spinach sambar. The dinner served a rich source of iron for me to spend the rest of the evening pondering over the stand-by thread.
I retrospected on the various events during my travel back home from work and wondered if a man really needs to experience these extreme emotions. Are we going to swing between extreme happiness and pain all our lives? Can these emotions, feelings, attachments be controlled? Should we let ourselves go through the trauma of pain and loss? Should we be really so excited and attached about various milestones we reach in life as a function of time? Be it love or hate, gain or loss, prosperity or frustration, success or failure, cant we maintain a equilibrium in life that results in long term harmony?
I kept bombarding myself with such questions and I had to seek some answers. I picked up to my white-board to derive a solution.
My life is a Golden triangle comprising of vertices's viz my family, my work and my personal space. I am equally passionate about various dimensions of my life. I zoomed into my family life and I could see a mirror of all the extreme emotions which was no different than the ones I witnessed on my way back home that day. I left it at that and zoomed into my work. I didn't encounter any such extreme emotions in all my career. I found it presumptuous.
Let us put it this way:
I graduated as a Computer Engineer and applied to organizations that would need engineers from my discipline. After being shortlisted from a set of organizations and going through a fair interview process I was pleased to receive offers from couple of Employers. I rationally decided on an employer where I saw a good career growth path for myself. I signed on the dotted line and entered into a legal contract with the Employer. I pledged my loyalty to the organization. In the organization I was governed by a set of rules and regulations, code of conduct and rich values which I followed religiously. I worked hard to learn and put in my best efforts to demonstrate my skills. My core goal was to align with the organization's business goals and achieve the targets with my team. From day-1 I was professional with my colleagues and agreed to disagree. At work I rationally put forward my points without raising personal comments on any individual and always arrived at an amicable solution that's best suited for the business after evaluating the pros and cons. For the success of self, team and organization I maintained my honesty and integrity at all stages and did no compromises for any sort of vested interests. I did not fall for temptations of any sort and stood for the principles the organization believed in. All through as an individual, team and organization we channelized our energy into a positive progression. During successes and downturn we maintained our calm and composure and continued to strive for excellence at all times.
At a personnel level, we cared for each other's growth. We supported and encouraged our colleagues towards success. The team work was celebrated. We rationally shared positive as well as constructive feedback so as to achieve continuous improvement that further translates into better performance of self, team and thereby organization. We did not hold any personal grudge or neither did we offer to do special favours since it was not part of our code of conduct. Year after year I emerged skillful, stronger and smarter in this set up.
At some point due to complacency, I decided to move onto a another suitable organization and into a whole new employment contract. I or my associates did not hold any heart feelings on my leaving the organization and neither I fell in mutual love with the new organization. I did see the best interests of self and the organizations I was part of and going to be part of. I surely did carry the lessons, skills and all my brownie points forward to the new organizations.
In the new organizations at an abstract level its still the same set up but with a positive progression of my roles and responsibilities that I truly deserved due to the efforts I put in all this long in my previous organization. For my growth in the new organization I continued by duties with honestly and integrity.

We are rational when it comes to dealing with people and are always governed by the Organization's Code of Conduct, Rules and Regulations, Values all defined clearly by the employer.

Better connecting solutions...
A wednesday late afternoon, I was working hard to find a plausible solution for home security using the technical concepts of Sensing Surroundings, while listening to one of the Rahman's materpiece in the background. Without me realizing, my heart sensed the rhythm of the tone playing that touched the latent chords which once was a music of my life. The notes played by these weary chords synchronised with Rahman orchestra resulted in a meloncholy note. My eyes that so far had an image of a Wireless Fidility secured home network was taken a ride into times I could probably eraze with the help of a gadget used by Men in Black.
Dreams on Fire...is all I see...
I am ambivalent when I look at lonely souls in overcrowded cities...
I spent eighteen years just to qualify for an oath ..."I would bring people around this globe closer to their near and dear ones...one step...day by day...thereby shrinking this blue planet with the power of communications..."
and...Here I am today amidst Cannibals set out to gulp in the "Human" within a Living being...
Having slogged in the best of corporate cultures for a noble cause of connecting people using a very human technology...only to realize that at the close of business hour on every weekday I am defeated in my battle against disconnected hearts...
In the process...
I have moved from "Hanuman Chalisa" to Objectivism...
Face Values are evaluated more relatively...
Business impact is more achievable than bridge a broken heart...
I now suffer from bathophobia...
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button looks less mysterious than riddles I have been challenged by life to solve...
I have even come close to understanding the complicated Mathematics that led to this recession and have the whole world sink into a depression...but I havent been able to decode a human emotion "hate" with all the education I have ever received in 3 out of 7 continents...
I am not giving up...I will seek the Gyan that will one day let my dream see the light of the day...
...So now I have taken refuge under the Innovation umbrella...if I could come up with that one break through solution that could help people repair their broken hearts...
Probably a bypass surgery using a forgiveness instrument that would permanently eliminate the hate generating cancerous tissue...
...and from then on the cured hearts to be on a daily health routine of 24 x 7 uniterrupted connectivity ...
Wow...this would almost find its place in the Vision and Strategy of the Nokias...Apples...Googles...
Worth patenting isnt it...Now that I know "What" the solution is...I am just working on the "How" part...
Dedicated to Maestro Rahman, who revived a lost emotion with his unmatched piece of work "Kaise Mujhe - Ghajini" and "Dreams on Fire - Slumdog Millionaire"

Why do we breed when we cant handle it?
Resource based soceity...Or Resource management in the world...
These words kept doing rounds in my thoughts...As an Engineer, I can appreciate how important it is for organizations to keep their business going. Extrapolating this thought, would be it worth for our government to have a vision to manage Population control, based on the Operations Research fundamentals.How plausible is to have a government operate on a thought process primarily used in businesses?
The Problem Statement is intuitive. Population today in our country is the root cause for a number of serious issues like poverty, malnutrition, unemployment, infrastructure planning and growth, raising costs for education/food/water and shelter etc.
As a democracy, there is so much need to educate people on population control. We really dont need to breed if we have to bring in lives onto this planet, only to suffer.
It might be useful to plan population growth in a amicable fashion rather than insensibly breeding. We need to evaluate our resources and plan our growth accordingly. I know I am asking for trouble from our elder generation and many prospective parents. Feelers would petition for a callback for these statements. But hear it out with an open mind and think lateral.
Its time to eradicate legacy Human Development Lifecycle Process following a manifestation of a Phased (Child)Product program, that need to pass the Conformance tests at various phases with a Acemedic certificate, Employment offer letter, Marriage Certificate, a child birth Certificate and finally a unit linked Pension plan. Isnt it a social stigma which people are conditioned to from times immemorial?
Somehow there is a need to de-couple aspects such as love, marriage, love making or even feeding your instincts from a serious matter such as population control. As human we have our freedom to experience some of the best journeys life has to offer like love, marriage, various expressions of love. However, we need to demonstrate a sense of responsibility towards a larger cause i.e. Health of our Society.
The idea is to control population and not curb people from having children. Its okay to have one or a maximum of two children. Look at the state in villages where we see a couple having 8 to 10 kids, when the family is short of feeding even two people.
How are we reaching out to such people to explain the fulcrum of the issue?
It should be a strategic approach.
Strategy for rural areas: We must get to a state where we can educate people not to have more 1 or 2 kids. Its not realistic for us to imagine that only education will get us to where we want to be. We will need Governance and Laws to help us get there.
Strategy for urban areas: We could encourage couples to adopt children where the orphaned children and prospective parents have created a family based on human values reproduction.
So the message is not to impose on people to stop having kids, but its more to control population growth in a sensible manner for better today and tomorrow.
We can bring down a lot of issues to a controllable levels and we will see a healthy parity among the rich and poor.This world will be a better place to live in for the ones who have already entered the planet.
Life is not worth living worry every moment on issues that result out of our improper and unsuccessful population control measures. Lets address this together with a sane thought.
