Is mankind the cancer for the universe?

On Hindu mythology, we believe that there is Brahma the creator, Vishu the sustainer and Shiva the destroyer. Man has been around for more than a million years, however it is only the last 10000 years, where we have really moved ahead of every other species. We have grown and multiplied from 4 billion to 8 billion in less than a 100 years.

So are we entering the era where the world will be coming to an end? Are we growing uncontrolled like the cancer cells destroying everything else around us?

Are we the ones who are killing ourselves for a new earth to be born? We are in the Kaliyuga as per Hindu mythology. Which is the beginning of the end for the world. Have we reached the end? So that all the development culminates in the end of the world as we know it? And the beginning of a new world? Are we the last of our race to step into the unknown by becoming robots or the terminators as James Cameron portrayed in his movie? Are we headed out to the space to be lost there forever?

So many questions but no answers. I guess only time will tell where we are headed. Till then, let us pray so that God is kind to us and guides us on His divine designs. Amen!

It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...

The mountain between us

The film mountain between us is a simple story. A storm, A mountain, two professionals, one recklessly sick pilot and a dog. Meagre ingredients for a movie. But the movie touches you deeply. Hits you hard like the sinking Titanic and it's soulful background track. The mountain in the movie is the metaphor we all have in our relationships. It's the mountain and the storm that brings people closer. The lonely souls wandering in the sea of souls, looking for something neither knows. It's so true in our modern lives. We are all living busy lives, chasing dreams. Then life takes over sometimes, creating situations and circumstances that gets us meet people whom we were otherwise never going to meet. Call it destiny or karma or whatever you choose. But these people, places and circumstances help us reach deep within ourselves and find us the anchors in the sea of life. Then life is never the same anymore...there is positive vibrations all around and we follow the vibrations to r...
