Shed a tear and rinse our sins!

Let's shed a tear for all those trees we massacared to furnish our homes

Let's shed a tear for all those animals we slaughtered in the name of sports

Let's shed a tear for all the rivers we polluted
In the name of prosperity

Let's shed a tear for all the mountains we mercilessly chopped in the name of growth

Let's shed a tear for all the pollutants we dumped in the seas and suffocated the life there

Let's shed a tear for all the birds we made homeless to build homes for us

Let's shed a tear for all the bees who lost their way, for us to check social media nonstop on our phones

Let's shed a tear for all the forests that we burnt with the fire of our greed

May be then, when all of humanity cries together for the sins we committed for generations, may quench the fire we ignited in the breast of mother nature. 

Then may be she will cry for us too, like a mother who sees the repentence in the eyes of her devastated children.

May be then, we will earn her forgiveness and she will help us rebuild our lives and rediscover our connection with the larger universe.

And when we find that connection again, we have the chance to be truly free!

May be again we will cry tears of joy together and sing the songs of happiness with all the creations of mother earth.

Come my friend cry a river and wash our sins
That's our only route to redemption!

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...
