Photo on Visual Hunt Don't get any ideas guys!  Getting on top of a lot of chores and especially those which are life-changing can be quite a task. The idea of being on top of things is to set pace to a life that is seemingly glorious at every step.  For that glorious, free, body hugging, love and embrace sort of life we all need, what's important is putting our mind and body to perfect themselves on being in the present. Not easy as it looks! Where the mind wanders, the body saunters. Where the body pushes its limit, the mind bears the brunt. Yet, we are made to believe that the mind can go through a quagmire of emotions, allowing the body to relax and re-flux; basis everyone's threshold value.  We've heard the mind and body talk on multiple occasions, however what can be done to ensure we are on top of our lives -  Break the Bullshit : Definitely doesn't come easy. We're surrounded by a lot of nonsense, that isn't especially needed for us...

Also, no right wing fringe group, has the authority to demean a woman or man, by issuing a bounty for their heads and culled organs, in return for restoration of community pride. We aren't living in the 12th century, and we surely haven't stooped so low, that we start killing our fellow citizens. Sanjay Leela Bhansali (SLB)  has been caught in fresh controversy again ( read: Ram Leela, Jodha Akbar ), as his Rajput pride, magnum opus movie releases. This time, we just don't have some flimsy sects of people, who brand themselves...

There are natural calamities and attacks on humanity, leaving our spirits in shambles. There are incidents, whose scars promise to heal with time, yet, it takes much more time than anticipated. There are support systems, that promise to be at our aid, whenever needed, however, we understand that it cannot be possible always!  In spite of all that transpires within our ecosystem and beyond, we pick up the shattered shards of our lives, with the hope of putting it back together!  Yes, we believe that we shall overcome!  Never before has humanity seen so much death and destruction, never before have we seen this magnit...

Every minute, or perhaps every hour of the day, is a perfect time to remember the Lord, for the countless blessings bestowed upon us. The image above was randomly clicked by yours truly, while shepherding a group of intellectuals at an event. In a country like India, where culture, heritage and beliefs are deeply rooted towards pure existence, the lighting of the lamp, made of an alloy of brass and copper signifies much. The height of the lamp, tends to say the following: Bless you all, in a manner befitting to your actions, that shall define your path to salvation. Spare a thought for the world and ensure there is peace of mind at all times . The shiny jutted-out edges, where the cotton wick is placed,...
