God
God never made the rules, we did..
This is a true incident that happened about three decades ago.. The afternoon sun was having a field day, gleaming with a fiery smile all along the roads of Madurai.. “Damn this scorching heat, am not able to peacefully enjoy my pilgrimage trip”, thought Ramachandran as the walked down the street towards the famous Meenakshi [...]
Why is life unfair, most of the time?
Yes, it’s a very common question that everyone asks themselves; at least at some point in life. A couple of months ago, I met some of my friends after quite a long time, and we were discussing all the earthly things – about money and jobs, and wives and girl friends. There was certainly something [...]
How to tolerate PAIN?
Well, if there had been a definite solution on tolerating pain, the thought of God may become secondary in our minds. Ain’t that true? Most people think of God only when they need Him; only when they are in trouble, or want something to turn up in their favor. Otherwise, God is just God – [...]

I don’t know if these apparitions are true or just made up for the sake of scaring people via the television. Whatever it is, the video clippings are freaking good. The ghost footage [...]

World over, atheists are related to being either the communists or negative thinkers. I pity those ignorant, though educated, souls that cannot do a simple reasoning of who is who or what is what. Communism was written, since the days of Plato, to scientifically manage the society. Communism may have failed in many ways (people always talk about the Russian failure, but they seldom comment on the success of China..
As the mind thinketh – an informal survey
It was a nice saturday morning, 6:26 AM. I was staring at the deep orange eastern sky sipping a cup of hot coffee…lost in a train of thoughts. I’m aware of the chirping of the birds, and an occasional flap of the wings of birds flying hither and thither silhouetted against the orange sky. ‘I wish I were a bird’ – that was the first thought that came to my mind when I envied at their happy life, not needing to worry about salary, escalating costs due to inflation, saving money, investing in real estate (or rather protecting it from the cluthes of the tax department), paying for my car and educational loans, and so on..
