When a person says “I hope that..........”This is a lazy person, because he/she wants that the wishes be granted by God, the cosmic or somebody, but it is when a person says “I expect that ......”This human being is an actor in the stage of life not a passive spectator. First I dream of poetry, then I act to find those poems that will motivate my life. First I dream of color, then I seek colors to make my life more enjoyable. Read more
Here is a slideshow of some pictures I took in Dwarka in Delhi. I liked the skyline and how it looked with the wide expanse of Delhi! Read more
An old Sikh man in California was waiting for his second package to be delivered, when he accidentally looked at the first package's receipt on UPS website. And what he saw was shocking! Instead of his name in the "Signed By" section, he saw the UPS driver had entered "Terrorist". The family of Blbar Singh (sic) [probably Balbir Singh], is obviously mad and not taking it kindly. This is not the first time that a turbaned and bearded Sikh gentleman has been called a terrorist, ostensibly in a reference to him being an Arab Muslim. Some clarifications are needed in this country surely: Read more
Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) has now defined who a "Sikh" is [1]: "a believer can not be a true Sikh, though born in a Sikh family, if one trims hair and beard." So men and women who trim their hair, moustaches and beard are neither Sikh nor Sehajdari Sikh (non-baptised), though born in a Sikh family. says Avtar Singh Makkar. This shows how religions degenerate and make a mockery of the original spiritual teachings. Guru Nanak Dev, the First Sikh Guru, was known to speak against the ritualistic tendencies of his times and now all that is left of his teachings and great thinking is Hair! Read more
Laptop has become the way to do computing for most people now. Specifically with its mobility factor and the, now, ubiquitous wi-fi + broadband facilities in almost every house (most of the homes I visited in India have wi-fi + broadband - in fact MTNL's broadband router also has a wireless router built-in), laptops are becoming more visible. Last quarter the notebook shipments rose by 40%. In fact this is the first time when the Laptop sales have outstripped Desktop sales - 38.6 million to 38.5 million. HP has the highest laptop sales with 18.8% share and Dell has 13.9% share with Acer at the 3rd position at 12.2.[1] Read more
We will get a new inspiring point of view long ago forgotten buried under many layers of years. We will surely gain a lot understanding how children see our adult world. With the the present digital cameras is quite easy to see what they see. How they are able to appriciate our good moods, as well as our ugly side when we get angry or impatient with them. Read more

On this ocasion I will talk on the behalf of many people. I’m just the designated spoke person today. Yesterday I prayed for some pounds of ideas, but God sent me tons of them. If we are spiritual beings having human experiences then we are mentally and spiritually conected, so what is good for me is also good for many other human beings. As I’ve already told you I asked God for some ideas for next year and He sent me an avalanche of them.Please help me out! Here are some of the topics: AVOIDING THE TREMENDOUS WASTE OF OUR BEAUTIFUL HUMAN RESOURCES. Read more
Finally, reached Houston after a long flight which almost never happened! I lived a nightmare that I have had for so many years of taking an international flight. On Dec 27 night, I reach the IGIA gate and show my ticket and itinerary and the guy points out that my flight was at 1.20 AM on Dec 27, so I am about a day late!! I was like WTF! How could I have made such a basic and fundamental mistake!?? Well, he was standing there - a smart tall Tamil guy - smiling at me. With an understanding tone, he suggested I go to the Air France office across the gates and talk it over with them.. "hopefully the office is still open".. he said with a lingering doubt. I immediately rushed with all the bags in the trolley to the office. Somehow made it and announced my stupidity and the guy also smiled at my plight.. adding that it was a common mistake.. even frequent flyers out of India make that mistake. Phew! I aint alone on this "planet of the morons" I thought! Read more
