Corner stone...

Corner stones are very important for any building, without a proper corner stone the building becomes weak and stands a fair chance of collapsing from its glory to ruins. Though in modern day buildings, corner stones were taken over by pillars yet the importance of corner pillar is very important for the stability of the building. Every building has four corner stones holding the walls together and carrying whole lot load of the building. Corner stones decides the integrity of the building.
Similar to the building, our life is also an enclosed building resting and thriving on the corner stones. Those corner stones are family, teachers, friends and society. We become corner stone for others expanding the simple cuboid into a complex social structure with interdependency on one another. In this complex structure if one corner stone is disturbed it will disturb the complete balance of the intertwined human lives.
At an early age we were taught by our family members, then mentored by teachers in school, influenced by friends, we move into the society to teach, mentor and influence. Stronger the corner stones, our life remains strong. All corner stones are equally important.
How to keep corner stones intact? Make sure to abide by family values, follows the morals of life, share wealth and knowledge with others and finally reflect yourself in a positive manner.
What happens if you don’t keep the corner stone? If any corner stone is lost-- its like chair with only three legs, life becomes unstable like balancing on a highline.
Is your corner stone strong enough? Take a deep breath, think for a while, locate your corner stones, assess the condition of your corner stones. Take up a restoration process if required before it gets too late.
In this fast and materialistic world most of the times we forget our corner stones. We are highly focused on success and accumulation of wealth which will harm the values of lives. Our younger generation learn from us so we need to be vigilant and pass on the values of life. Lifestyle can change, life's priorities can change, fashion can change but the corner stones of life shall remain intact.
Hope this article act an eye opener and helps us keeping our corner stones and values of life intact.

India and cultural diversity

Image
India is  a beautiful sovereign country and is one of the most culturally diverse country. Anyone in the world would easily accept India as a cultural capital. The list runs miles when we talk about the cultural experience in the form of art, festivals, customs, social behavior etc. In many countries uniform culture is adapted, whereas in India every 100KM one can experience a new cultural variant and in every 500KM can easily experience a completely different culture. If anyone wishes to witness the rich cultural heritage of India, watch the republic day parade on 26th January every year, where cultural diversity of India is demonstrated by a colorful parade. Every state of India showcase their cultural heritage with great pride during the Republic day parade.

Are you ready for hefty traffic fine..

It’s a great pleasure to write a blog for a social cause.. Recently government of India increased the traffic fines by almost 10x times hoping that the hefty traffic fines would force public to follow traffic  rules. I have tried to give a dimension to this whole episode with respect to the responsibilities of the Government, Individuals & Institution. The increase in fine has created  uproar as well as support among the public. It is usual in any democracy to have such split opinions. I think I was in 9th grade when my class teacher was very fond of imposing hefty fines. In those time a fine of ten rupees was hefty for a ninth grader. I have been in the construction industry for almost 20yrs. Apart from the hazards at the project site, a constant threat was travel related safety. Hence we were educated to follow the traffic rules time and again. Coming back to the topic, I happened to hear opinion from friends, Indian colleagues about  the hefty fines which have sent shock

A tribute to the fearless man with a turban and big moustache

It was early 20th century... It was more than 50years since Sepoy Mutiny(1857) happened, Well, British governance was facing tough agitation from Indian tribal leaders, Nawab's and Kings in many forms. By then British were  ruling India for more than a century and they have no plans to leave India because of the wealth it possesses, abundance of raw materials and cheap resources . They started Indian rail, planted tea gardens, developed hill stations and India has became a county( I guess) and integral part of Great Britain and Indians became immigrants in their very own country While British were developing infrastructure for the sake of rich and the powerful, we Indians were busy fighting against each other in the name of caste, creed and religion. Many castes were prohibited from entering the temples, denied formal education and women had no respect and rights  in the society. Child marriage, bonded labor  and satti were in practice. India was in dire need of personali
