Nimmy said...: AoL...is an obvious guess. :-) But is it that or something else that you're referring to?; 7/02/2009
Anonymous said...: I do read your blog regularly, pretty lazy with comments though and it is not only your blog, but elsewhere as well.

Yes referring to Kriya! If Kriya can't control the restlessness of the mind, then I don't know what else could!; 7/02/2009

3,2,1...Go!

This blog would love to meet introspective, life-loving and enthusiastic folks and book lovers. If you are a Plum (PG Wodehouse)/ C&H (Calvin and Hobbes)/Swami Vivekananda/Ilayaraja fan, we may be one of a kind...!

I generally ponder over Life, Spirituality, Knowledge Management (KM) and 'Nonsense' . Creativity, Innovation, Leadership, Ethics, Branding & Advertising, Books, People, Learning, Education, Children, Music, Poetry, Pets, Birds, Paradoxes, Change Management, Travel, and Cartoons are some of the other topics I extend my thinking to frequently....

herE GOes......

I enjoy being creative. Creativity, to me, is the best thing in life...! And...my love for life and learning are two great intrinsic motivators.

I have wanted to be almost everything in the world - a detective, an astronaut, a teacher, a scientist, an architect...a leader...a director, a musician, a painter, a singer, an ornithologist - you name it! To cut a long story short, the only thing I did not want to be was a Doctor! :) But destiny wanted me to be a KM professional. And I love being one!

I have a passion for the paradoxes and mysteries of life! I enjoy and cherish dreaming of magnificient achievements...those that have the potential to make the world a better place to live in!

Some of my all-time favourite quotes

Problems exist only in the human mind - Anthony de Mello

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it!

Put your heart, mind, intellect and soul even into your smallest acts. This is the secret of success - Swami Sivananda

This above all; To thine own self be true - William Shakespeare

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle - Albert Einstein

"The faithful see the invisible, believe the incredible and then receive the impossible" - Anonymous
