Year 2003 every one thought India now has started his journey from where it left in 1984 when the contingent of 15 men under the commandment of Kapil Dev left, yes the year India made it to the finals of 2003 ICC World Cup. Although the result were dismay for India but never mind at the end of the day some one has to put their head down and some one has to be  boisterous with joy. In recent  time India has always shown a dismal performance at the International stage, be it some “onsite” tour or some domestic encounters. The reason is crystal clear, cricket engagements is now limited to some bacchanalian parties, high price tagged commercials and pompous grandiloquence status in society.

The chorus might have not change the theme of their song but yes the beats are certainly heading toward new tone and notes. The much talked about IPL was in news for some recent weeks, when it was revealed and some senior members of the IPL team were under allegations for venal crime. Obviously a country with cricket as the second religion you can expect such crime and it is not bad to considered it as a venial undertaking, for the first time from pinnacle of the pyramid to the grass root level of the system it was clear that IPL is one of the most corrupt body of India, a system where money is flowing in the hands of game maker, among such names are Lalit Modi, Sharad Pawar.

Being an Indian I am used to such kind of scams in India, as the old man says, you are not a good politician if you are not evolved in such allegations of scam, the politics did not leave Shashi Tharoor, one of the most learned politicians of India nominated for UN, has some unmatched publications. The gloomy news for this new episode is the appointment of new ICC president Mr. Sharad Pawar, the smoke of the IPL scam is yet to abate, the news of such magnitude is setting a new epitome for corruption. Mr. Pawar who is also under suspect of being envlolved in IPL scam is all set to lead the International cricket.

The shocking news was when one of the Australian contender was thrown out of the race. In the lights of what are the achievements of Mr.  Pawar, I am in now ways surprised to see him the ICC President, considering that now whole cricket fraternity is corrupt, obviously the brethren court needs who can adjust well the room.

Part – II of the sad story is the current position in India political ambience which he has been holding. The food minister, well  Annapurna is the name given to the one who provides food. Well the stats I have don’t show a very promising achievements for our Union Agriculture minister, or may be sinister. India is ranked 88th on world food Hunger Index, now that’s what I call a paramount achievement when you are the Agriculture Minister of the country.  With IPL allegation and with such international stats on Indian Hunger Index I am confident enough that Mr. Pawar will add new dimensions to the cricketing fraternity in his rule.

On a personal level, I am least bothered about these things s long as I am getting my salary and bread to eat I am more than happy to watch cricket with a bowl of popcorn and jug bear, but when I share this news on a national bench, with patriotism I find I have to agitate the motion once again and bring the resentment among the masses again. Clearly the Indian have a chronic problem of amnesia where they grant amnesty to all who might have committed the  most brutal crimes.

Giving the verbose flow of my thoughts a pause I end up saying that in a country like India cricket is the best crop to reap on, Mr Pawar’s stake in IPL and BCCI will help him to get this job done even more meticulously.

15 Aug, 1947 is a memorable day for all of us, it embarked a new era of freedom where any and every Indian is free, not politically but socially. There was no punitive government who would debase us, rather a political body that stands on democratic grounds. Every new born life is not bound in chains of slavery, no wraith of white skin on us. Its is the day what we call today FREEDOM, thas independence we are talking about.

Over the years we are celebrating this event with sublime zeal. The very thought of this day unites us all, a day where every one stand for a common cause, under a common tri-color. Folks on roads can laught without seeking any one’s permission. However another day is also kept under consideration, 1992, where our biosterous citizen were given the right to trade freely, there were no painstaking in opening a new firm, we call it three pillars for the modern uproaring Indian economy , we call it  Globalization. That was the time and today, India has undobtly has changed leaps and bound.

From mud roads where kids muddled to turf flyovers in cities, not only infrastructes changed, Indian society also saw some new trends where women were given a healthy status,  education flourished like never before, life style is flipside what was decades ago. Sounds perfect ! we are among those spectators who are watching only one side of the coin. This time grass on the other side of the  fence is slight pale and even dried.

With the advent of IT in India, mushroom number of IT oppurtunity have gone up, the IT pool can be said to be at its pinnacle. In all this we have not seen one thing, the growing concern among fellow citizen. With population as the source behind these beautifull IT endeavours, there is no shortage of technical man power, this has now become a problem for the man power itself.  The It company are now treating employees nothing more than a technical labour, some time worse than that. A 10 hours of work by no standards can be called humans, I still remember a time when a software geek was a matter of respect, now its just flipside.

With such a hectic schedule of work we hardly get any time for our personal life. People often work from home to keep their supervisor happy, or the very next day he would has his replacement, this is in turn increasing the stress level. The client is considered as a god for these IT boss, what ever they said is considered to be final verdict, there is no argument on that, for me it is no different from what India was before 1947. A simple mistake from any folk is considered to be gaffe, for which there is only denunciation. Is this what we dreamt of as Independent India.

No doubt with such IT boom, and oppurtunity we have got many things, but the play which I am watching might have a very ruthless ending. I am still a naive to this, may be some one better can comment or may be rectify me.

Looking forward to hear from you !!!

If it happened before yet you are thinking about it, It is happening Now!

Your thoughts have a lot to do with nutrition and your attitude to what you eat. You can see how your thoughtscan influence you with regard to nutrition, taste and health concerns.

Like repeating thoughts, whether consciously or not can make you believe them to be factual, whether true or false. If your mother told you that it’s unhealthy to drink water with your meal, that notion may remain with you to the rest of your life. I had also a such type of notion from my mom in childhood that never ever comment on your food whatever you are eating, having food is itself a God’s greatest bliss. So whenever I don’t like any dish, I just keep quite.

Whether true or false, the ‘wisdom’ of your teachers must constantly be challenged as new nutritional discoveries are made.

I thinks our thoughts also have some taste and they compare it to some taste which our mind  have already sensed.

How do you react when you hear a bad report on the news? The media may ‘warn’ that “everyone who does not get the ‘flu shot will be seriously ill and chances are blah, blah, blah,” Those are all spoken words!

You can choose not to entertain all the negative news coming your way! Instead, make a conscious choice to replace it with positive thoughts and words. You can direct your destiny with how you think and what you say!

The more open your mind is to trying new things that you know are good for your health, the more your attitude will change and your taste buds will follow!

Something about Dutches are said that whatever food a farmer is not familiar with, he does not like. In other words, if he’s never tried it, he has already condemned it in his mind by assuming he won’t like it and therefore won’t even try it!

Enjoy God’s ample variety of deliciously nutritious provision to keep your body functioning at optimum health!

Life is what  you want to make it. Happiness and Sadness are optional, it’s totally up to you what you want to choose. First time when I read this in Bhagwad Geeta, I was not able to understand this at that time but when I saw this video today, I thanks to God for what I am.

Cricket is a gentleman’s game, the lights of Garfield Sobers, Gavaskar,  Clive Llyod,  Sir Don Bradman, Sachin , Brain Charles Lara clearly make this adage true. For India Cricket is more than just a game, I will call a religion that has no caste associated with it. Folks around the globe, follow the game with same passion. Well there have been controversies for this game, giving it a black star, nevertheless still cricket is in hearts of million of people.

The spirit of any game is put down when we try to destroy its integrity. Stars like Cronje, Azzarudin will always be remembered for what they did. Still the spec of corruption is present in the game, and for the matter of fact it will remain, when there is a huge following there are chances people to do some acts that are not accepted.

A new turnaround took place when India launched IPL- t20 for the first time, a new dimension to the sports was added, giving the chance to domestic players and international player to play at the same platform. The plan was perfect as the domestic players will grow in confidence and improve the standard of game. Skills apart, the concept will generate revenue, many domestic player who end up playing Ranji and walking away bare handed will now have lofty bank balance.

Corruption has its own strange ways to peep in to the system, speculation were made for the bidding of teams, that some under table transaction are going, but no proofs, until the kochi owner rendezvous sports declared what stunned the whole cricket community.

The owner were bullied by the minister to walk away from the bidding podium with a bribe of $50 million. Clearly if the IPL- committee can offer this huge chunk of money, we can expect what it would be getting in return.

Well I know this is just a news that will route every television, ear, news paper for a day, a week or may be a month, we Indians have very poor memory and soon we will be watching the IPL matches with a mug of beer of pop-corn in our hand. What is sad that level of corruption has creep-ed  in so depth that nothing can escape from it, even the game like cricket, which is the next religion for the country.

Long time ago when I was a student I read a story LOVE ACROSS THE SALT DESERT, the story was a perfect example that whatever be the cultural difference among us, love has no boundaries. A love story of a boy and girl who belong to different country. Religion, caste, ethics become just words when the air is blissed by love. Memory loss has wizened my mind so I don’t remember what was the climax.

Then I saw a movie Heena, again a story on a similar line where the climax was not happy, the boy from India and the Girl from Pakistan, similar to that bollywood again made another movie staring Abhishek  and Karena. Sorry cannot remember the name. Well if you think that all this anecdote is just on papers, I would say its now you have a memory loss.

Pakistan Cricket maestro Shoiab Malik and Sania Mirza the Tennis icon for India made this story a success. Well their relation seems to be in a little controversy as of now, but they have taken a pioneering step and set an example that still India and Pakistan have some feeling of love for each other.

The facebook has a special page for greeting Sania Mirza as “Welcome Bhabhi “, clearly the immortal apathy among the two country men seems to be coming to an end. The only question I have will this marriage bring any harmony among the countries ? Or their story will be another LOVE ACROSS THE SALT DESERT.

The present India Pakistan relation is self explanatory, the relation in recent decades have not been so good,Future is difficult to judge, what I can do, is to wish that they remain happy and may be thier step could bring sweet thoughts for both the country.
