Interesting developments this week

India defeated weak aussies twice.Thanks to MS Dhoni.Former Madurai MP P.Mohan is no more.Very simple politician i have ever seen.Its very unfortunate good politicians die early.He missed victory in madurai because of less honest people.Narendra Modi affected by swine flu and declared out of danger .He is one of most controversial and successful politicians in Indian history.Indira gandhi death anniversary came this week.A strong and controversial leader famous for her emergency,nationalizing banks,war on Pakistan.After her we needed some strong leader which we lack.I expect Dhoni to come to politics soon .

Dhoni dazzles


Second ODI Nagpur . India vs Australia
Dhoni slams Australian bowlers to sixes.When he bats likes this he looks like bheema showing his full strength to the balls.The balls are hit with high force to different parts of ground with speed of rifles.Dhoni is back.After he became captain he changed his batting style too much.When he is natural,he unleashes his power with the bat.He looks best.

To Mahendra Singh Dhoni,
We expect a lot from you, Dhoni.You are a inspirational leader .We learn t a lot from you.Your cool approach to the game is quite a sensation.You lead your team from the front .Continue your power hitting.Make every match a Diwali without pollution but with lot of arrogant batting and pyrotechnics.

Stranger in stretcher

Stretcher was kept at entrance of hospital.A fair and young North East Indian was lying on it.Ram was walking towards entrance.His eyes took him to the rooms on the way to the entrance.There was blood bank room,ortho doctors room,some empty beds on either side of the way.Ram just remembered his first time experience of giving blood the other day when he saw the empty room .Suddenly his eyes went off to entrance.The stranger seemed to be carried off from hospital.The hospital employee was adjusting the position of hands of the stranger lying in stretcher.The stranger was wearing brown t-shirt and had calm face of a monk.
Ram was shocked to know the person was dead.Till then he thought the person was taken into hospital for treatment.He passed a distance from the entrance.He kept his basket containing water bottles and lunch boxes in Cycle carrier and again watched the entrance .A Fast Car came into hospital parking.The driver looked very serious and was busy in a cell phone call.And slowly the stretcher was moved towards Car.The stranger was to be be taken into the car.A other car suddenly came in .Probably that driver didn't notice the stretcher and the deceased to be taken into the car. Ram started to hear some custom made horn.The watch man begged in his indifferent body language to stop the sound.Ram was shaken to see even the eyes of watchmen begged to the driver to stop the horn.He would have seen these deaths frequently in hospital as he is always in hospital.He was visibly disturbed by the death of Stranger in Stretcher.After noticing these events ram started moving his cycle from the place slowly.

Small thoughts

Every crisis is a opportunity and can have a new hero.
Never judge people but judge your friends.Friends have great influence on your life in both positive and negative ways.
Never worry for a problem.Worrying stops you to analyze a problem in some angles.Some cool ideas and solutions emerge if you are fully involved present moment .When you just focus on solving the problem, instead of worrying you may emerge as winner.
Stay away from negative people.Be friendly to them ,but never make them friend.
Never apply generalized ideas and thoughts to all people .Great people don't show their real value openly. Each person may be unique and many time judgments about them may be wrong.
You are different from your mind.Just watch how your mind and thoughts goes all throughout day.This is simple exercise and will help you to fine tune your thought process.Stop being a slave to your mind and try to control it.If you have restless mind, please watch your food and sleep.

Fear and Guts in Stage

I was studying second standard in Harvey English school.There was a story telling competition.I had given name for this competition .My mother trained me .I said story of Cap seller with rhythm.I wore newly bought Nethaji Subash Chandra Bose dress and I will throw the cap from stage after saying this story.


"There was a cap seller. He went from town to town to sell caps. Sometimes he had to pass the forest.

At night he kept his caps and slept under a tree. In the morning when he got up his caps were missing.

He looked here and there and heard some noise and he looked up and saw that the monkeys had taken his caps.

The cap sellers threw stones on the monkeys and the monkeys threw mangoes to protect themselves from the cap sellers.

The cap seller had an idea. He took his cap and threw it on the grass. The monkeys also threw the caps on the grass.

The cap seller took the caps happily. ~The End"
It was small stage in Harvey English school.I got second prize in this competition.If i want to say honestly about my character during those days i was so shy to external world and new people i face in life.In annual day my mother took me to annual day function .There was number of people in the function . Some epic drama,music programmes were held.After some time prize distribution began and chief guest started distributing prizes.I didn't want to go to such a big stage but went ton to get the prize.Small cute lunch box.I used to carry same lunch box till tenth standard.Whenever i see the photo i get nostalgic "Cute little boy timidly holding his hands on tiffin box given by chief guest "

Mind Blowing experiences

Last week i had two mind blowing experiences.The good thing about them was they came in unexpected instances.
After afternoon meal ,I was in deep sleep.I was so tired that i lost all my memories in sleep.When i woke up it took me seconds to recollect who i am?I just thought of child hood,college days,people who i met,my friends,people who suddenly disappeared,every sort of random things which i came across for minutes.Suddenly i went back to sleep and started losing my thought process in sleep.When i woke up again realized Sleep relieves you out of your desires and sufferings for short time.

Death is also form of sleep .I wished to die that moment to forget everything and become static .Not everyday i would think like this.But sound sleep gave a kind of peaceful happiness which gave me desire to die.In one point of view , death is not a sorrowful thing.Its a great equalizer for every human being.
I was returning home after working in office.These days i take alternative route from Velachery to Adambakkam.There is newly built 100 feet road from Velachery railway station to Adambakkam.Bridge construction works are going on one side of road .Mostly there is no heavy vehicles in the road.Riding on my Honda Shine feels best in higher speeds.I would be riding in 60 -70 KM speed in this stretch.After reaching this level of speed i started to control acceleration to same level.It was cool night ride with constant speed with great control.Suddenly i got to great concentration levels in my ride .My senses were in highest level.There was one random thought .What if there is no end for this road ?What if i ride in endless road for my entire life without any other necessity like food,water,shelter and other social needs. I would be in this bike riding for all days.I would prefer no sun,no rains,no traffic,no aging process,no relationships ,no pains,no pit shops and endless fuel.Life will become a ride with no end.It will be a boon to be static person in dynamic motion with no emotions.Planets already have this boon.

Are Relationships social compulsions?

Aug 13 2009 9 PM I just came to home from office.I went to neighbors home.He suddenly started
to speak about relationships.He had updated his Orkut profile."From my past experiences ,Relationships are way of exploitation" .He thinks parents love children's because love on children has become Social habit.Relationships are bound by social compulsions , prestige ,blood relationships.There are less good positive factors involved.I would partially accept this.But he sees these from his eyes.It appears different to others.
His arguments
Assume if a couple dont care for their children's,they will look odd before other couples.Then there are other factors involved like personal feelings like Ego ,Jealousy,Social prestige which will compel them to care for their children .
Once you do a help to people they expect you to help every time they ask for help.Suddenly once you refuse help to them, they forget your kindness in previous occasions and you become a devil in their minds.


I suddenly thought of parents and their love while hearing this.They have always been my good friends for me.I have met so many people in my life who have shown some true affection.Love is best when it is unconditional.I have met less negative people.But there are some people who will act like really close persons.I can never guess their inner evil thoughts.I would realize their darker side only after some time. There is one person i hate a lot.Even in very critical situation this person can think in cool cunning way and cause trouble to others.At same time i should wonder this Emotional IQ in taking decisions in troubled situation.I would hate when logical decisions come without love and care for others.
I remember noted orator Valamburi John speaking about truth and lies in TV interview.He had said "In some issues both arguments may be true and false".There is no one fact in many issues."The way you see the problem ,Way it appears". Judgment is in your thoughts ,not in facts.

Swine Flu

I just heard Swine flu has its second victim in chennai.Second victim is from Adayar.First victim was a four year old boy .I weared masks for couple of days after hearing a four year old died of swine flu.My office is in velachery.For first three day i saw many people wearing masks in the location.But after somedays,people dont care much about swine.People seem to be care free after initial hype.It could be one reason Swine has strong hold on Asian countries.Dense population and careless mindset is dangerous combination for air borne diseases
One advantage for Chennai is very hot place.I hate this punishing heat and humidity .Swine doest spread quickly in hot places.But
Swine seems to be long term problem.Swine or H1N1 virus spreads through air droplets from infected person.TamiFlu drug is administrated for this disease but is ineffective during complicated stages

Story times


Once upon a time I was a small kid .Hearing stories was my favorite time pass.In my generation as a child i had less entertainment.No Televisions..No Cartoons..No Video games..No fancy foods..
Stories were great time pass.
Stories helped a kid like me to know about this world's people,culture,heroes,history, ethical values.They made me to think and kindled my creative skills and dreams.When somebody narrates story I would create my own world in which story will start happening.

To get a good narrator is a boon.
Right flowing narration and exciting content will make story just like seeing a film or watching series of events over long time quickly in yours mind's world.A film or stage play depend on script content and actors.Stories depend on their content,narrator's style and way you imagine things you hear.Let me first say about my favorite story tellers .

  • My uncle is the best person to say stories.He was teacher and knew lot of new stories.I was in grand mothers house during my childhood.I was a big fan of his weekend stories.His intention of telling stories was character building .So he will always say stories with good moral values.If i do something wrong he would indicate it in his stories.So sweet stories with sharp ends...

  • I stayed in a place called paramakudi for a week during my third standard holidays. In my relative's house,a elderly person used to say stories of dasavataram for hours after dinner to me.The kind of knowledge she had in characters in epics like Ramayana,Mahabharata and fluency with which she narrated complex stories was amazing.She said sequences of events in avatars like Rama,Krishna,Narashima ,Koorma ,Parasuram ,Varaha with ease.Narashima avatar is short and thrilling avatar.Mahabharata had great examples of characterizations in human society.Krishnas childhood mis chives were very interesting to hear.Those days were just feast for my ears.






Story Books
Ambuli Mama,Bala mitra,Siruvar malar are my favourite books .I started reading these books regularly.My father used to buy Friday dinamalar for free edition of siruvar malar with it.

Ambuli Mama was quality story material for any child .Vikramadhittan stories had colorful image of him carrying vedhala(a kind of Ghost) .Vedhala used to say new stories to Vikramadhittan and ask questions at end of stories .This is was great way of developing logical reasoning in child's mind.


Siruvar Malar had pictorial stories,Pancha tantra stories,Tenali ram stories,Arabian stories,AthiMedhavi Angurasu .Every week Siruvar malar carried a cute face of kid in its covers.Siruvar malar improved my tamil flunecy and my reading speed .
I had bought story books to know about Tenali raman ,Appaji ,Vikramadhittan Stories.


I would like to know if kids of this generation are intersted in hearing stories.Child's
World has changed a lot.They seem to understand complex stories with ease since they are more exposed to Cartoons,Science films and media. Still parents must develop story telling skills and must say more stories to their kids.Stories are most natural way of saying something to kids.

Film Review -Moodhi Vilayadhu



Cast- Vinay,Kajal Agarwal
Music -Leslie ,Hariharan(Colonial cousins)
Direction -Saran
Genre-?????(Possibly could be Romantic Action comedy movie else Hitech multiplex masala movie)
Theatre (where i watched)- Cinepriya Theatre in Madurai .
Last Friday i went to Moodhi Vilayadhu on first day second show.Frankly i felt it was big mistake after watching the film for 15 minutes.Creativity in screenplay horribly gone wrong!!

Storyline.
Kalabhavan Mani is a cunning industrialist.Through this wrong business tactics he earns lot of money along with enemies .Vinay is his son brought up with a sponsored child(vodaphone dog).Kajal agarwal a student gets in vinays life as work maid for damaging his costly car.Both vinay and his housemate get into love for kajal .Suddenly his house mate gets killed while they travel in car over argument over kajal by Vinays enemies .Vinay loses everything and targeted by paid assassin from Bangkok and his father doesn't take care of his security. He comes to know his killed mate was real son and he was only son for mani in eyes of society.How he overcomes this situation and proves he is orphan becomes rest of plot.




First lets discuss about good things in this film.
+++++++++.......
  • Rich camera work capturing some exotic locations.Real visual treat of some exotic locations in Malaysia ,Bangkok, Dubai.
  • Kajal Agarwal looks gorgeously beautiful in this film!!!
  • Pathi Kadhal song is awesome.
  • Twist in tale after break.

- .....
  • Screenplay is not written well .Director clearly fails in this major point.
  • Vinay has dubbed his own voice for the role.He has to talk like NRI but ends up talking like Telugu guy newly speaking Tamil with some poetic terms.
  • The film has taken one year to complete looks patchy.


Never watch this film if you need good time pass.They have taken this film during their timepass.

Aussies could get burnt into Ashes!!!



















Australia are probably going to lose Second test match in Lords.England are already leading 500 plus runs in just third day.First Win in a series is vital for a side.England would happy to take lead in this emotional series.
Fresh multi talented cricketers in English camp like Swann,Matt prior,Broad have rekindled their energy.Andrew Strauss bats like really cool test match Batsman.This is last series for Big Boy Flintoff.Wish him a happy farewell.

Difference between last test match and this one is improved bowling by England and poor batting by Australia.Surely newly added Onions has spiced up English bowling.Anderson has finally arrived as their major weapon and was instrumental in destroying Aussie lineup which was looking good last match .
Batting collapse is very destructive for any side in test matches and can cause unexpected results.Its unfortunate that both batting and bowling failed badly for Australia this match.















The major problem for Aussies in this test match was their wayward bowling by their bowlers particularly Mitchell Johnson.Johnson was expected to spearhead Aussie attack in absence of Brett Lee.If something is missing in Aussie attack these days,its lack of single Match winning bowler like Shane Warne.

Retirements of Legends from side like Gilly ,Hayden,McGrath had already weakened side.Self demolition of Symonds and Brett Lee's in and out form have done more damage to their strength.

Ricky ponting is looking helpless leader in this test match. He will be having awful dreams of Ashes defeat these days though its a long way to go.With this bowling attack Australia aren't going to win Ashes.
Transition period hasn't been smooth for Aussies.Their Twenty-20 World cup exit only proved their weaker state.Ashes Win is best gift England team can get this time.Freddie would be happy man to go on winning note.

Life and Love

This is my first blog.I wanted it to be my favorite topic "Life and Love".Lets start with love.
Love is a big thing.Just consider yourself as new born baby.Think about people who have loved you throughout your life and helped you.Your parents,friends,neighbors have been with you throughout your good and bad times.Enemies have shown hatred and changed some peoples life.In one sense you can love your enemies for giving drastic changes to your life.
Even negative emotions are malformed love.Negative and positive feelings are complementary .If you watch most people they have this mix of good and bad characters.Life will become obsolete without love.You don't need permission to love anybody.But when you expect love from a person it becomes complicated process .
Life is filled with love.When people love god it becomes devotion.When people love friends its friendship.Brotherhood,Love on opposite sex,religion,patriotism all have essence of love.We seem to love different things like sport,coffee,house, environment,cricket bat.So Love is a habit of people.When you love most things you face then life becomes very interesting.People when they love their job become more masterful in their job.
