God is an introvert

God is an introvert - a clever one at that.

Evidently He never meets with people in person. Never speaks with them in words. Never comes out in public. Never arranges press conferences. Never argues and never takes sides. Doesn't make his address or telephone numbers public. And yet he is so popular!

He always wants to remain obscure, so much so that some think He is aloof or doesn't even exist. He is enormously creative, meticulously thorough but obstinately reticent.

His most intelligent creation - Humans - could understand the chemistry, mechanics and all the Science behind His creations but that clever dude never planted the "circuits" in human brain to let them know & understand Him or His world or even themselves.

Do yourself a favor today. Step out of your home and behold His marvelous creations. Go and see for yourself any vein of a leaf or any drop of rain/speck of dirt on it, any feather of a bird or any petal of a flower, any fur of an animal or any antennae of an insect, any trajectory of a river or any grain of sand, any sound of a waterfall or any call of a bird - they are all so unique and so complete and so different from any thing else out there. Only He could have created them. Only an "aloof introvert" Him could have managed that much time and thoughts to put so much of detail in each of them.

Fasting and Feasting - Part 2

Image
So after a huge success of the last post  (before anybody protests, let me remind "success means different things to different people") and enormous public demand (I have the gift to read people's unexpressed thoughts) and having survived the TOUGH fast I am back with the part 2 of the Fasting and Feasting in Singapore. Let me start from where I left in the previous post. I slept with all my mind and house filled with the delicious aromas of the fasting dishes and happily dreamed eating those one-by-ones tastefully with the divine rhythmic chants of  Har Har Mahadev . In the morning, I was getting ready for the office when Amisha casually asked me about the address of the Lord Shiva temple so that she and her friends can visit the temple later. I will leave it to the Cricket connoisseurs to declare it a "clean-bowled" or a "stumped" as even after spending one-and-a-half years here, I have no clues about the whereabouts of "orthodox" sacred ...

What % of population is required to bring about a change?

So what's the minimum number of people required from a population to bring about a change? Most of the people may say "At least 50% or slightly more than 50%". If you also thought so then you are in for a surprise. According to a research, it takes only 11% of the total population to stand up to bring about  ANY change. Yes, just 11%. They studied all the major changes in the world, all the major revolutions and then arrived at this figure. They found that if at least 11% of population is in favor of something then the rest of it is more inclined to adopt the change. Isn't that a pleasant surprise? We often want to change some thing but don't move ahead because we are afraid that the majority may not be with us. So, the good news is we don't really require a majority. We just need 11% of like-minded people and once we get them and move ahead properly we can see the change happening very quickly. According to a survey, 48% of Indian population is with te...

Going Home - Part 1

About a year-and-a-half ago, on an evening like this, with nothing to do, I was sitting on a metallic park bench of a HDB unit in Singapore. Sweating. Due to humidity. And possibly also due to the enormous decision that lay in front of me. There was no wind - characteristic of a typical Singapore evening. Some kids playing on neatly manicured grass. Some other kids cycling on a well-tarred narrow cycling cum jogging track. Still others playing on the swings and slides atop a rubberized earth. Constant sounds of basketball dribbling emanated out of the adjoining basketball court where few shirtless teenagers were practicing the sport. Amisha was holding little Vihaan's arms and making him slid on a slide. Vihaan gurgling his excitement every time the descent started. "Let's go back home", shouted Amisha, "he's hungry". "Home is too far. Let's go back to our flat rather", I winked. She smiled. After a small protest Vihaan relucta...
