Life beyond Life

I am shocked frustated and anguished at the attack at IISc Bangalore

I strongly condemn who ever did it for what ever motive and would like to share that its always easy for one to attack than for any agency to protect or foil such attacks.

However, is this a terrorist attack or a personal rivalary or simply a lunatic on run with a gun??

These questions may not be answered easily and the answers may not be consistent for us to get the real picture ever.

However, I personally believe that there is more to life than what we can ever see and understand. Human beings have their limitations and i am one of those with strong belief in destiny and law of karma which postulates that any experience for any being is pre-determined and concurrently changing based on thoughts & actions of the being. Our physical existence is merely a part of a very big overall cosmic play.

Thus there are events which we don't like to happen and infact feel dejected and sad to see, however the motto of fulfilling this physical world is - show must go on.....

While many of us would condole the death and would like to contribute in some positive way to build on this issue's aftermath, this is neither the first nor the last time that we are faced with this challenge.

As an Indian, I pledge to work for Global Peace more than ever I have done so far.

I committ that I would use my physical life to the best of my abilities to protect mecca's of our society from such incidents.....

I am not wanting to be a matyr or even a Satyendra Dube or any other whistle blower...i will remain a family centric person with my self interest above all other social committments yet I will work beyond the usual to do my two cent....Lets get going to work....

Dreams never die....

Friends Today is World's Aids Day - well we are already having several other interesting days to do something good, for me some how, this day is standing out as over last year & half, I have had chance to meet / interact with a few professionals engaged in tackling this challenge...those interactions did sensitize me to the subject a wee bit better and I would like to contribute my bit on this subject as & when I can. Lets make "The Promise".

If you are interested to read more, check a nice article by US Ambassdor to India which published in The Indian Express on the subject.

As such this year again I shall be walking on 3rd Dec'05 for an awareness campaign being coordinated by CII in Chennai...my company will have a participation there as part of the contingent

Have a nice day,
