Decoding AAA - Part 1 Disclaimer: This write up is based on author’s experiences. There is no intention to hurt anyone’s sentiments. Any resemblance to any person is purely coincidental    "Triple A " is one of the most powerful words on this planet. Depending upon the situation and one’s state of mind, it can be decoded. In this write up, I will decode Triple A as Alcohol, Anger and Arrogance. Mental imbalance need not be necessarily after alcohol intake. Anger and arrogance are powerful stimulants which causes aggressive behavior. The brunt is borne by close family mainly spouse and children. The seeds are sown in-utero or during early childhood. A new born soul is pure, pious, peaceful, powerful. The surrounding environment shapes his personality and character.   A soul which harbors either of these will create an invisible fort around for their protection, rather than for people around them. The behavioral pattern is same in all these cases. There are periods of

Need  of the hour # Man empowerment! Since time immemorial, there has been hype about empowering women, the weaker sex, the fairer sex. Hypocrisy lies in the fact people who talk about such things have been brought into this world by a woman. How can a cat bear a lion? Only a lioness can bear a lion. All this heavy word talk carries no meaning and should be discarded as useless. Why label the female gender as weak and then talk about empowerment. If the label is removed, all of us will see women as an individual. None can judge the power of a woman who carries a child in her womb for nine month. The ability to bear pain during child birth, the patience to nurture a child, the selfless nature to leave her childhood home and make a man’s four walled house a home, only a woman can do. If man wants to survive, then they should rise above their ego and acknowledge woman as their counterpart and not as rivals. There can never ever be a comparison between a man and a woman. For comparison

18 th /19 th June# my tryst with love & grief *P.S. It’s not a sad blog In my family, we remember 18 th June as day of “Death of a saint.”As on this day in heaven, Baikunth doors were open. As per Hinduism, in the year 2015 this day was the most auspicious day for any soul to leave the mortal coil to be with the Almighty as God himself was welcoming such noble, pious souls. These thoughts help a little bit in coming terms with the loss of my mother # Momsie. My Maa, lived life on her own terms and left this world as per her own will. Rewinding back by twenty three years, I alighted from Mumbai-New Delhi Rajdhani express on this day (18th June). This one forward step on the New Delhi railway station changed my life forever.  On 19 th June, I met the love of my life and my status changed from single to engaged. Fast forward sixteen years, grief engulfed me as we lit my mother’s pyre. A part of me went with her in the pyre. Every year these two days bring a tsunami of mixed e

Does truth exists?   Of late, truth has intrigued me. How do we quantify a truth? Does it really exist? If yes, then who defines it? In ancient times, there were clear demarcations between right / wrong, true/false, ethical/ unethical etc. As mankind evolved, the demarcation line seems to have blurred. The transition zone has been gradually expanding and absorbing from either side. In later half of last century, there have been many movements related to empowerment, liberation and equality which have also contributed. Everyone has their own sets of truths. Universal truth still holds the highest position. Man is busy in his own pursue of truth so much so that the universal truth is often overlooked. This process starts building up since childhood and goes on throughout life. It’s an ongoing process. A neutral person can help in finding out the truth. Situations which are being encountered these days are different. A person standing on head end of table will read the letter 6

We meet to part and we part to meet!    We cross paths for a reason. There is a divine purpose behind every soul we meet in this journey of life. Many a times, God sends just the right person who helps up in wading through difficult times. Whenever one feels in midst of challenging times, a gentle reminder that the situation is temporary and will pass off helps in facing it. Such challenges are ‘His” way of expressing his love, concern and the need for that particular soul to evolve. The only thing constant in this universe is ‘Change’. Yet, we live life with certainty and seek stability. Still water stagnates, harbor algae formation. Everyone likes a change and seeks a break from the monotony/ routine.  There are certain changes which our soul doesn’t approve. Like children leaving home, high school student entering college, graduation days nearing completion with hostel days coming to an end. Even changes as simple as changing one’s sleeping place, eating place, study pace, par

The right time to leave your child’s hand! Disclaimer: This write up is my personal view point. Readers are free to differ. And can write their views in comments section.   Children belong to future. They come through us but we do not own them. If each one of us remember above two lines, life will be much easier for each one of us. None of us are born parents. We become parents after the birth of our first born and here one’s child is one’s teacher. Each child demands different style of parenting. So, there is no rule book to master to become the best parents. There is no competition or race. Each parent does the best job as per their own knowledge, wisdom and instinct.   When is the right time to leave your child’s hand? This is a million dollar question. Each one is bound to have their answer. I always believe in holding the hand of your child till they leave it, and not parents releasing the hand clasp earlier. The intention is pure and pious, the unconditional love for th
