My Gold Mornings

Mornings are beautiful...

Morning’s serenity feel senses amazing. What’s actually hidden in the morning which actually makes one full of optimism, full of radiance to begin a day with?

Well according to me, the beauty nature bastion upon us every day goes completely unexplored every morning

Bluish sky, orange rays emerging amongst the sky, right mind lowing away the green leaves of the tress across my window, lovely parrots, pigeons playing pee-a-boo and getting engaged to begin their day with!

Well such a calmness, tranquility is what gives a sense of assurance in me to live the day happily , to thank god for blessing me with another day & pledging to shine with all around me .
Further these good mornings are often converted to gold mornings when I adore the nature sipping with a cup of coffee and I have my kid sitting beside me with lots and lots of question on our mother earth. On this nature, well so much is hidden in this beauty which can be narrated to give a positive direction in one’s life {I realized this post answering the questions of my kid}.

This 30 min session is usually followed with meditation & yoga to preserve the energy gathered, to bring some peace in life before start of a hectic day.

Not just these, a fresh morning breathe is equally important to self. So the credit for my gold morning goes to Colgate . With Colgate toothpaste Colgate 360 Charcoal Gold toothbrush & its recently launched charcoal bristled “ Gold brush “ , which not only converts Good to GOLD Morning  , but also gives a sense of smoothness , a sense of freshness , a sense of purity & a sense of cleanliness

Impact of Solar Power

As we look around from  Metro city to Tier-1 to tier- 2 and lately to country side, the number of hours electricity is available reduces from 24 hours / day to 2-3 hours a day.  Although  situation are better in state like Gujarat , Uttrakhand but states like Uttar Pradesh , Bihar , Jharkhand observe regular frequent power cuts which runs in days .
Most affected by this problem are not Corporate which may run their operations on Diesel Generator or Urban household who have Energy Storage devices (Power Inverter – Batteries) but farmers whose main source of income is agriculture and for which they need to Run Water Pumps.
In villages, the power shortage is severe and despite government assurance’s, the availability of power during peak season of harvest remain as low as 1-2 hours. Due to which,  the dependability of farmers on monsoon is very high and possibility  to have multiple crops during a year using irrigation facility remains a dreams resulting in poor yield per square hectare of land per year .
Sun is an Infinite source of power which has been available to us since inception of life on the earth. .We have been trying  to use the sun rays in by converting it into different forms of energy as required …But a decade before , Conversion of Sun Irradiation directly into electricity was a technology available in labs only under testing condition due to High cost investment and low efficiency . But with continuous R&D work and Wide scale Production, Technology has evolved to adopt this at Mass level and available to all for use .
This tech is proving a BOOM for agriculture sector and in India the adaptation is growing faster than ever. The Reason is farmers can install the system at their farm/roof and can use to lift water from underground and run it’s drip irrigation system. As India have almost 300 Sunny days in major of states and for duration starting from morning 9 am – 5 pm, when the load demand is maximum.
These solar systems reduce the dependency of consumer on govt. to provide connection and timely electricity. This system will help farmers with having multiple crops in a year with better water availability to grow them. Also Solar system can be used to charge Batteries in idle day’s which can help run Fan/Lights/Computer/mobile at home.
So these Solar power pump goes way beyond the usual benefit and help in bring education , better healthcare facility , improved living condition , better source of income and connectivity to outer world . Solar Power is clean source of energy and it maintain the ecological balance of Land without need of any rehabilitation and can be harnessed at point of consumption without need of running kilometer length or transmission or distribution lines .
We are bound to see multiple application of Solar power including Nuclear/Coal Plants be soon be replaced by Solar farms ,  Steam generation , Hybrid Vehicles and Small application like Mobile charger , Water Purifier , Solar Fan , Solar Fencing etc.
This revolution has already been started taken place at grass root level and this gives ray of hope. An optimism that sector employing majority of Indian Population is bound to get upgraded, impacted and that too in Green form with betterment in their source of income.

Solar power has the capability to impact every aspect of life and all in positive way.

Music - Empower your soul !

Technically Music is Defined as – “vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion.”

But ask a layman and you are going to hear something like this  - “ Music is one which can’t be explained but only felt “ “ one which touches your heart and souls and transform to other world “ .

It happens many time when you don't want to talk to anyone, time when you brain stop processing any information, time when your loved ones look like mad crowd to you . Other time , you just don’t want to talk with anyone , don't want to discuss anything . At Times when any artificial light seems to drain energy from you.

It happens when body and mind wish to go in “HIBERNATION “Mode and only savor seems to be Music. As saying goes “One size doesn't fit all “, similarly everyone has different taste for music. 

Even depending on situation, conditions, surroundings and most importantly mood , same person wish  to hear different genre of music . There is a logic and science behind how music tends to soothe mind and soul. Even Doctors and psychiatrist prescribes patients to listen to instrumental music especially Indian classic to help heal body quicker. Now days expecting moms are advised to play and listen to specially created musical content which helps in better baby growth.

Most of the top performing sportsmen, leaders, politicians admit to hear their favorite song / music before any big event which can be a Major game play or Public speech.

Ages since Ages music has survived and have been growing and it’s difficult to find anyone on this planet at least who don’t like a single genre of music.  Millions of people have built their entire career across music and it goes way beyond our regular Bollywood numbers. For adventure seekers sound of ocean waves serves as music, for mountain climber’s music is what played by wind at 20,000 plus feet height, for Moto- enthusiastic roaring of a engine is music to their ears.  What can be irritating for one can be melody for other?

Now Question arises why suddenly I started writing an Impromptu post with every fifth word as” MUSIC “.Reason behind is the discussion happening between me and my friend. He believes Music causes distraction and waste times and decrease productivity. On the other hand , I am music junkie believes and support listening to music is like medicating or performing yoga which actually help me in concentrating and act as steroids for my creative side of brain .

Although, his example too hold good when violent /aggressive side of a person takes over his soft side when he is continuously exposed to dark side of music. But then it’s true for everything in life. It’s always comes to interpretation of everything which defines how we wish to use it. Same argument is going on for ages for technology, weapons, education and numerous other things.

So as a reader of this blog, I would like to know people who have been reading this post what their views are. Let’s keep this as an open debate and hear what all perceives.


As an Individual, My theory remains – Music is the Gateway to our souls

Impact of your deeds - Kal ho na ho

Yes. Life is unpredictable and perishable . It’s gone soon enough before we realize what we really want to do out of it. Between the two extreme phases try to make an IMPACT , one which will be remembered forever
Days over days, months over months followed by years we keep on living the dreams and goals set by the society or family for us. I know, it’s good and important to give ears to their advice and opinion on way to lead life but making it the destiny we wish to conquer is way bad.. This makes us herd of sheep, who only move in group and never give independent thought on what if I go in any other direction.
Small example is what we celebrate as festival are derived according to dates marked on calendar , So season start with new year and end with Christmas and entire School , Collage , Office and Even Families plan around them .
Help Kids on the street, because at end of life we don’t want to see our life wasted on acts which are mirror of what people done to us.. Let’s our inner-self not guided by deeds of other rather by what we truly are  , a  person who wants to believe in the 0.01% hope. Help everyone , may be as small a guiding a blind or senior citizen in crossing road to distributing sweets to road side kids or as big as leaving my day to day job to start a venture which is 99.99% surety of failure but our heart sees a hope and wish to do it …
When we actually start doing this, then only we can celebrate every moment of life, because consequences no longer affect our attitude towards life and its situation. Be like a child, who is happy every time he saw you, every-time he learns a new things, every-time he is faced with new roadblock he keep trying and trying. These small task gives us confidence to try and fight with bigger one and beyond a point we don’t care about the outcome of your efforts , rather we start enjoying the efforts we are putting it .. When we can judge ourselves and get in habit to put a pat on the back as we set higher and higher benchmark for ourselves we start loving every moment.
So a street beggar can be more happy than world’s richest man, because as Gandhi ji said” There is enough for man’s need, but not for man’s greed”.
All this can be summed up in two songs which are on top of my play-sit and i hear them a ritual whenever i look for support /motivation and wish to feel good.
First One : ”
 Title Song – Kal Ho Na Ho ”
Second One ”
Haste , Haste Kaat jaye rashtey ,
Zindagi yuhi chalti rahe  !!!
Khushi mile ya gum , Badlenga na hum ,
Duniya chahe badalti rahe ”

Bringing back the peppy side - My better half

Life has become so fast paced that we forget to even count how quickly the days or even weeks pass- by and we are unable to acknowledge the deeds of our near-one who are always thinking and working for us behind the scene in their wishes , thoughts , prays and deeds .

My wife is one of the peppy gems, who act as the creative director of my real life film. As famous proverb goes “Behind every successful man, there is a women”, but in my life there were four of them. Started with my mother, 2 sisters and then come wife as i advanced in various stages of life. It has been 5 years of Marriage and due to professional responsibilities, the so called work -life balance was nowhere to found and the scales are heavily tilted towards work, which took almost 13-15 hours every day and similarly every weekend passed away in attending seminar/conferences/corporate events. Whatever time left behind gets divided into attending family functions and taking care of household duties. So no matter how much I feel  and keep telling my wife sorry for not giving personal time to sit /talk/eat/drink/travel with her and to understand her expectation and perspective of life , Helplessly all I have been giving her is a dead smile . 

But this time, I decided to break free from this routine before it breaks me. I booked a resort at Lansdowne over long weekend on HOLI for just 2 of us. Lansdowne is a Hill station situated approx 250 Km from Delhi in Uttarakhand State. When I told her about this plan 1 week before actual travel date, she was very skeptical and based on my history of postponing everything for work; I expected this doubt naturally from everyone. Finally the day arrived and we packed our stuff in car, which I decided to drive and keep driver at home to utilize the travel time to open up. As we started, I have mentally prepared to hear complaints and issues related to home and my attitude towards her. Surprisingly, Reverse happened and she actually praised me as how i have been putting my wishes and comfort at stake to give entire family financial security and help in crafting a better future.  For next 3 days, we watched movies together, Relived our 8 years of togetherness which included 5 year of marriage and 3 years beforehand. We eat/drink/sleep/laughed/played like old collage days and had zero communication with external world .There was no alarm clock ringing , no cell phone buzzing , no sudden burst of anger /frustrations . What was there was two of us in present form and a believe that no matter what happens we will remain on each other side forever and keep inspiring each other to fulfill our duties along with not forgetting our love for each other .

At the end of trip, we promised to keep a week apart from world just for each other every year and go on a holiday/vacation which will keep us going for remaining 359 days of year.
