Oh my God!

Hmmm.. Which god... what god... its basically the system... things we control and things which are out of control... I feel Religion is necessary... God too... I feel every god is a ....
way of expression... But the problem comes when one doesn't like other's expression... Religions are here as some rule for life. India as such has lot of religions but the crux of it hasnt been understood we leave people to use our religion politically. Religion is all about belief... The world would be a better place if people can follow things that are good... Coming to Religions Hinduism one of the oldest...main religion in India... Christianity Wide spread... Islam followed in specific regions... Buddhism.. Jainism... All have many Messengers of God... Some messengers are Gods...We show interest on the God, the messenger...why are we forgetting the message...Sometimes I feel very sad when the Religion is taking the front seat... I am very much against conversion ... why do you want to get converted ... What do you know about your existing religion... If thats for just the Monetary benefits wats the point when the new religion which you moved doesnt support you after sometime...Are you going to change... I believe religions were just for grouping us and adding some disipline to our way of life... Whatever said and done the religions are about love... If a person who can help if you get converted ... if he helpd you even before doing that... that would be true love... thats where he would gain respect on the other side ... People who are lazy and jobless should stop depending on religion ... I accept the fact that every religion wants to help others as thyself... But that doesnt mean you need to be lazy...I guess it would be boring if all of us follow the same religion... There will be very limited holidays... Blasting Diwali ... Jingles of Christmas...and ofcourse the Biriyani on Bakrid... different cultures ..different ways of life... but one link ...LOVE...

- This was a post which I wanted to write after watching the movie The Message movie on Prophet..it was long pending but .. recent news on the cleansing of a Temple on entry of Muslim person ..made me write this..I guess its not the Temple that needs to be cleansed its our minds ...

I leave you with an interesting e-mail fwd.. Incase of any copyright concerns please lemme know... There is one interesting link http://www.bbp.co.in/ ....Cool site with a lot of India related visuals... You can download the ARR's songs here... People promote brand India in a Positive way...

Cooooor(G)reeeeen!!!


Cool Green ...Coorg... Madikeri ....if you really wanna get a glimpse of greenery go Coorg...


Some places which will still give the joy that can't be got thru any theme park... We get a refreshing feeling when we taste mint... One could get a similar feel through your eyes... Relaxxsssed! ... Real nice place to visit... Plan for a Long weekend that shoud do ... Get a Place to stay... I guess you dont have to spend much on that bcas our objective is to Enjoy nature... you can opt for a normal room in KSTDC's Mayura... One Tip here try to Check in in the Afternoon... We missed a Park known as Raja's Seat Hope I will Check that out next time...But still our weekend was lost in the Omnipresense of Natures Beauty... You would get a Information Sheet on the Tourist Locations...

I believe 2 days would be enough... Some Places which I guess can be done in a Day are Raja's Seat, Talkaveri(Thalai Kaveri) - Climb the Bramhagiri... Enjoy the Misty Wonder, Abby Falls ... Which is part of a Private Estate... very picturesque, Namdroling Monastery's Nyingmapa Buddhist Vihara - the Golden Temple Really amazing Structures ... Representing The strengts of Tibetian art work (http://www.namdroling.org/) ... There is a Shopping center near the monastry where you can buy some souvenir...Quite big piece of Land... you will easily spend 3 Hrs including some Shopping.....I meant without the ladies :).....Dont cramp many places to visit because places like Nisargadhama wasn't worth spending time you could have them If you have an extra day....

Day 2 you can plan for Irpu falls which is quite far from Madikeri... I would recommend this place because this is where we enjoyed a lot... but beware of leeches...Nagarhole Sanctuary was boring for us because we didn't spot as much wildlife you could find in Bannerghatta.. neways if you wanna go to Nagerhole go early ... you Cab guy would be able to guide you... Oh did I miss those Coffee plantations...Cardamom...and Ginger Fields ... But you wont miss em .. Its pretty Common there.... As for shopping em Honey... you can get on the way from Talkaveri and Spices too ... for Coffee lovers better get it in Madikeri ...again consult the local guy there ..that wud be really fruitful... Writing this was like goin again for a tour ...Green Memories I Guess... Hope to visit some more places like this...

You could always find details on these in site like the one below.... Go for Google....

neways guys who are planning ...Bon Voyage...

Reflecting nature over time

The Picture I had taken almost a year Ago... Since then have been trying to put my thoughts on whatever pictures I try to take...Ok coming to the thought behind the Picture...How often do we use our Idle time to admire the things happenin around...Sounds pretty easy but its really tough... You might even ask me if this in necessary... I feel it is... There are still things beyond Work... I took this one when i was waitin for my daily pickup vehicle to Work... We never know how much time is left in our self made... stressful ... competitive lives...

Cool Malls in da Hot Chennai


The Chennai Becomin more Suave and Stylish... Thats what I can say... I had my friends who had International Experiences thats wat they felt... I've been in Bangalore.. I thought we got infected by the mall culture...but wait .. dont we have a Spencer's Plaza for quite a long time... and its quite huge... Wats the difference... I feel its the People... ya the People have changed... We have lots of people moved from various parts... but isnt that pretty common thing to happen for a metro... That shud be normal Ah Hah ! But for the Products... you get the Best in Chennai... gone are those days when you would get a Mobile or Watch or any Gadget in Grey market.... Now its fun time for Gadget lovers .. and you cud see them..feel them and even Buy them in these Malls... and food you got em all all varieties ... and Great Movie Experiences too... and more Malls comin up ... It wud be more and more spending... Its a Bird ...Its a Plan ... no its money thats vanishing out of your wallets ... may be we shud have a term to address that .. some thing like Mach3 ... Are we Richer now... Who said that... We still are pooor guys wearing those ultra expensive ATG's and blah blah... One way I feel bad that all our Indian products are coming to us with great International brandings... when is the day we can Identify great products with our own brand...when is it gonna come... WHEN?
