Revolution. This is more than a mere buzz-word today. This word has evolved into an attitude, a way of life, a symbol of independence, and something that we all want to be associated with… Revolutions are there in technology as well. One of the newest revolutions that is on its way to India is the...
Conversations can never be answers. They can, at best, be guide-posts leading somewhere… within or outside the self and they can be desirable or undesirable, discovered or yet untouched, needless or vital for survival, or simply a place or a moment where you sit and let your breathe become normal before getting up and resuming...
Evil isn’t born in a day. Evil also isn’t born in solitude. The evil that I am talking about is the maha-demon called Ravana. This maha-demon was the one that was killed by Lord Ram… but then that is a past story. That Ravana exists now as effigies that are prepared every year to be...

No, my name isn’t Warren Buffet or Bill Gates. The Ambanis, Birlas, Tatas, and even my next door neighbour is far richer than me. When I go to the market, supermarket, or one of the many Malls, I get attracted to almost everything there and God only knows how I am able to restrain myself...
Walking leisurely by the Thames with Pushkin, my son, on my right and my wife to my left, we were happily watching people ambling, rushing, cycling, and jogging… there were others who were inhaling, exhaling, selling, telling, and no there was definitely no yelling… ‘Everything is so different here,’ began my wife, ‘and the difference...
No, this article isn’t about Mangan or Sikkim or the recent 6.8 on Richter earthquake that was followed by another with an intensity of 4.8 on the Richter scale. This isn’t an article about this earthquake or any of the others that have rocked the world quite so often in recent times. However, we shall...
