Are we humans doomed from the start?

Indian mythology talks of three Gods - Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Brahma the God of creation, Vishnu the God of sustenance and Shiva the lord of destruction. It is said that we are now in the Kali Yuga where the lord will destroy the world and the world will again begin from nothing.

Humans are actually quite recent phenomenon. The world existed billions of years before humans. We, humans are around 13000 years old on earth and that's like a blink in the lifetime of earth.

Are we the messengers of Shiva? The lord of destruction? Born to destroy the world and create it from the beginning?

We have consistently destroyed the surroundings. We are responsible for the disappearance of so many species from this world. We are polluting the atmosphere. We are killing the oceans. We are on the verge of melting the polar caps. Hell, we are on the verge of killing ourselves as some Harakiri where we are creating robots which will ultimately directly indirectly willingly unwillingly eliminate us.

We are on the verge of killing all forms of life on this planet so that the planet is again ready to sow the seeds of life once again and start life all over again.

And we will all merge with the soul of the universe and be free from the vicious cycle of life and death. We will merge with our creator and be whole again.

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!

Love is all around me!

I remember this peppy song from my childhood with these lyrics love is all around me, everywhere I go...I have forgotten the singer, the lyrics and everything about this song. But these few lines have stayed with me all these years.  Truly, if we look around, there is so much to love and be grateful for....from the view of the rising sun from my balcony, to the books I read, to the food I eat and the energy I feel within. It's beautiful. The whole universe is within us and there is so much to be happy about....only if we truly open our eyes and see. Life is so tiny. Today we are alive but tomorrow we may not be. So why not inhale all the beauty around so that when we close our eyes in the night, we feel the divine bliss within and cherish it, without a regret in the world. It's a beautiful life, I feel pity for thr people who waste it hating ! May God bless their souls and may they too learn to see the beauty all around, so that this earth can truly become a beautiful place to ...

Can the exhibition industry go virtual?

Exhibitions and stalls are an integral part of direct marketing in almost every industry. But can these exhibitions go virtual? The stalls could be virtually created and virtual meetings fixed from the comfort of one's own location. Imagine the amount of time that can be saved in travelling, planning logistics, managing hotel reservations etc. And ofcourse the cost. Imagine if virtual reality was able to give you the same feel as you get when you are inside an exhibition! You look around and be part of the traffic just as you are in real world.... Imagine animation, 3D and other graphics can add life to your stall. Just like an animation film, if  you are able to create a virtual reality.... If today you are able to attend eight meetings a day, may be you could attend twelve then as you will save the time of commuting physically from one room to another. Can it happen in the near future? I feel it can! Would love to know your views. ---------------- The views expressed are m...
