Are You Safe??

Most Irritating mails are those with the subject "are you safe?". Recently my employer fired somebody(may be huge in number), then i started receiving mails with that subject to my company mail ID. How can i take this in a positive sense that somebody cares for me!! Definitely not, they are smartly bugging me. What they are expecting? I hate those mails. Any way, we can catch up our "Well wishers" by this way... Very positive... Isn't it???

Good Byeeee............. CHENNAI...!!!!!!!

Finally it Happened after 4 Years. Fours years back, I came here to join in M.Tech course. In August 2003, when i stepped in Chennai Central railway station, the very first thought i had, How can i live here for 2 years? But i made it for a long way of 4 years. mixed experiences, yet cheerful and blissful life than i expected. I made very good friends here, who helped me in tough times. 2 years of studies and 2 years of job life. The every moment i spent here is a memorable one in my life. The greatest achievements i made here are, learning to read and write Tamil (Native language of Tamil Nadu). Wow.. i felt like a tamilian afterwards. I learned the advantages of learning new languages. It's not only useful for communicating with the people, but also interacting with the different cultures. Though the city seems to be extreme in temperatures, Humidity and rainfall, this is very safest and secured metro in India. I visited many places in Tamilnadu. Madurai, Trichy, Kumbakkonam, Tanjavur, Chidambaram, Kanchi, Vellore, Pondy, Cuddalore, Mamallapuram and Mayavaram. Yet to see more. In next parts, I will continue writing my experiences in chennai city.

Fun With Torrents

Hail the Torrent Funda.

Last month my colleague Selvaraj Introduced the torrent concept to me. The fun started there. In May 2007, my total Internet usage is 49 GB (24 upload and 25 download). My bandwidth is only 256 Kbps. And the fun continues here. This time my roommate Madan set a record usage of 9GB in three days(weekend). I hope, this month we will set a new record usage in the genre of 256 Kbps. Our estimation is 65 GB. Wish me Grand success.

Vedic Culture

Indus valley civilization is interpreted as Hinduism. Lets talk about our Vedic Culture.
The Vedic culture was a God-centered religious social system. Every aspect of society was designed to help people advance in spiritual life. In the strict sense of the word, religion is meant to be a way of life, which comprises all other activities. With the passing of time, society's trend has been to change from spiritual orientation to the material. Of course, the world has suffered greatly for this deviation. As you read through Equality Based on the Soul, we urge that while appreciating the many comparisons made between these two major religious paths, you take special note to understand how each of those comparisons points toward the principles of equality based on the soul and its natural conclusion, loving service to God.

Religion ????

World Peace: we all hanker for it. Even with the sincere attempts of our most stalwart planning commissions and religious leaders, the world's problems seem unfathomable. As long as crime, disease, racial and religious prejudice, and especially our determined drive for materialism plague us, peace will remain merely an unrealized utopia. Adherents to the Judeo-Christian tradition would like to have the kingdom of God manifest on earth. The Hindu tradition also aspires for Rama-raja, or the kingdom of God on earth. Our mistake is to want the kingdom of God to enjoy, without the presence of God.
An error of modern society and religion is to identify the body as the self. The Bhagavad-gita clearly explains that we should see and accept the spiritual essence (the soul) of each living being as spiritually equal. There it is said, "The humble sage, by virtue of true knowledge, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle brahmana, a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog-eater.

I'm Single and I Love It

Need an explanation? Huh???

God

In other words Super Soul(Paramathma). Super soul is a combination of all souls in this universe. In Vedas it is said that the super soul is divided and this universe is created. Trimurti's (Brahma, Vishnu, Maheswara) are also part of the super soul.

"Ekam Eva Advithiyam"
- one and only. one without a second.
(Jagadguru Sri Adi Sankaracharya)

I like this principle coz it answered all my questions about this life and evolution of this universe.

I will depict the Vedic culture in next blogs.
