Currently, listening to the following songs:
Su Che - What's Your Rashee - It's an awesome song sung by Madhushree AKA Sujata Bhattacharya.
I am also trying to read the book FREEDOM at MIDNIGHT, by Dominic Lappiere and Larry Collins. You get an unbiased truth of India during the partition era from point of view of 2 foreign authors after extensive and trustworthy research. I have read about 250 pages of this 700 Page book and at this stage only, one can clearly understand how our History that is quoted in textbooks in forged to appease the Ruling Class.
Apart from this, I am doing a part time study and research on Advaita, Dvaita and Vishitadvaita and esp. works of Sri Adishankaracharya's BHAJA GOVINDAM.
The vacuum that was kindling me for a long time finally has got an outlet to satisfy it's humongous hunger for this voracious SOUL. Thank you CHINMAYA MISSION for sheer coincidence of relating and networking me with the Divinity transgressed already with other fellow humans with mine too...

Da Weekend
It was a contented and satisfying weekend. After office on Saturday, came home and watched KANDASAMY. It was a nice entertainer.
Then, visited the DENTIST. As usual ,had lots of fun there that ma'm thought me the proper way of brushing! I met a cute kid there and had lots of fun playing with it. I also helped an old grandma cross the busy Sampige Street and that gave me immense satisfaction.
Sunday morning, I cleaned the house and washed my clothes. Then had a hearty meal at IYER mess. Thought of going to Kanden Kaadhalai, but plans did not materialize. Came home and watched EERAM. It was a very different movie, an enjoyable one too.
Evening, I had been to Shankara Mutt and Ayyappa Temple. Came home and watched Al Pacino's CARLITO'S WAY.
Well, that's it my weekend!!!

BACHELOR'S BEWARE!!!
Embarrasing Incident
This happened on 25 October. Me and my friend went to a small restaurant to have some snacks after a movie. It was inhabited only by us and an old couple. As my friend was very hungry, he was munching on his menu, but I was having a cup of coffee.
We were doing some small talk about the movie and the producer and politics of South India, etc... We were talking in the lingua franca of our own: Sanskritized Tamil. In the middle, the old gentleman interuppted and started rambling about the political system and the flaws of perpetrators in Tamil Nadu and quoted the harrowing experiences he himself had undergone. Then, he asked about our caste, community and place of work,etc... We, both innocent guys :-), gave the details with utmost sincerity to the old gentleman and his wife proudly.
Like a bolt from the blue, the old man told that he is looking for a boy for his relation and that the girl is working in TCS Bangalore and blah blah. He even went on to ask our addresses. Man! Both of us felt very shy and pathetic at that point of time. We felt embarassed to the core. He sensing our shyness, asked us to atleast give our parents' address. My friend, a little fickle-minded, told me that let's give the address.
I thought I've had enough of this and bluntly told the old man that we have parents who will take care of our marriage proposals and moreover we were only 23. Then the old man duly apologized saying that the girl was already 26. I heaved a sigh of relief.
So, (Eligible) BACHELORS BEWARE!!!
