Observe your boss for a few days with a neutral frame of mind. Regular meditation can help you to develop a cool and neutral mindset. Understand your boss and his or her priorities. Listen to what he or she says very carefully. Try to listen to what is unsaid.

Try to understand that your boss may be a very good person in personal life but targets and deadlines can put huge pressure on him or her and that work pressure can get transferred down on subordinates.

Art of managing boss is more often art of managing the pressure downloaded by the boss. And to manage the pressure, one needs to be in cool frame of mind. Trust me folks, regular deep breathing and meditation helps to develop this cool mind.

After meeting, email minutes of meeting to your boss and colleagues to ensure whole team is on same page. and get assign off from your boss. On regular intervals, send him status of work allotted with deadlines and tasks completed. This will ensure, that boss is updated on regular basis of work status.

Why Tulsi (Holy Basil) is planted at entrance of house?

Article : Sudhir Pai

As a child, I was fascinated with lot of things I observed around me. Some traditions were faith. Some were blind faith. And yet another had some scientific thinking.

I always used to wonder, why Tulsi (Holy Basil) is planted at entrance and worshipped. And I used to ask this question to lot of people and my elders and each one of them had their own version of story as they heard from their elders and friends.

But I was looking for a more scientific explantion until I met an engineer who had more interest in Ayurveda and Indian tradition and I felt his explanation was closest which answered my logical mind.

He first told me benefits of Tulsi plant and leaves which are as follows:

1) Tulsi plant emits oxygen in abundance.

2) Fights cancer.

3) Improves immunity.

4) Fights bacteria and viruses.

5) Useful in cold and cough.

Tulsi leaves can be boiled with tea and milk and drink for healthier life.

You can google and youtube for more information.

Bottom line - Tulsi plant at entrance was a reminder to take (eat tulsi leaves) daily dose of immunity before you go for outdoor work, so that you always remain immune to external harmful viruses and stay healthy.

So, eat tulsi leaves for a good health.

What is courage?

To accept the challenge of unknown inspite of all fear and insecurities and work towards it is courage.

Courage is the ability to come out of logic and reasoning of past experiences, challenge status quo, try out something new, something different and emerge out victorious. Courage is not the absence of fear. Infact, it is acknowledging the presence of fear, accepting fear and overcoming it.

It is infact, the ability to let go of our past experiences and venture out in the unknown. Courage is not essentially positive thinking but more of possibility thinking. Positive thinking may help to reduce fear, but possibility thinking will help us to overcome future, think of innovative solutions and ultimately emerge out as winner in life.

Courage is the self-affirmation of being inspite of the fact of non-being. It is an act of asserting our inner powers and strength over our weakness.

When I first decided to quit job and start something on my own, I had lot of fear about future, about financial burden and how I will manage my career. It took almost 5 years to fight with my fear and ultimately I quit my job and started my consultancy business.

I wrote 2 books, first one was Think Like A Winner, which has proven new age techniques of how to develop a winning mindset. and second one is Live Your Dreams, about those 10 ordinary real life people who became extra ordinary because they followed their heart and pursued their dreams.

Life of Radhanath Swami

Radhanath Swami (Richard Slavin) was born in comforts of Chicago (USA). As a teenager, he embarked on a fascinating journey of hitch-hiking the world in search of self discovery and spirituality that ultimately led him to join ISKCON (International Society of Krishna Consciousness)

During 1960s and 1970s, there was a general disillusionment amongst European and American youth about society and materialistic pleasure and hippie movement started where unfortunately many young folks got trapped in drugs, rock and roll and sex.

 

Something similar was happening to Richard Slavin. He was young. He was confused. And he left home, leaving behind his family and comforts of US life and started spiritual journey.

Growing up in Chicago, he was restless and had plenty reason to be unhappy. Civil unrest, Vietnam war and general aversion to trappings of material life.

He wanted to be free. He wanted to experience freedom and liberation.

In his book, The Journey Home, he gives colourful details of his spiritual journey from Chichago suburubs to caves of Himalayas. he gives an intimate account of the steps to self-awareness and also a penetrating glimpse various mystic traditions across the world like Arabia, Rome, Greek and finally he lands into India.

His spiritual journey ends with becoming an ISKCON sanyasi and now heads the organization and run food program for underpriviledged kids by name of Akshay Patra where around 1.6 million school kids are fed with nutritious meals on daily basis.

Hare Krishna !

Operation Clean Ganga - Guddu Baba

Source  : DNA
Writer  : Shivani Sinha / Edited by Swati Bhasin

First man to rise up to the cause

Forerunner of the ‘Save Ganga’ campaign, Guddu Baba sat on a 48-hour long fast at G.P. Circle in the city on December 31, 1998  after his encounter with the man bathing in the sewage. He wanted to draw the attention of the authorities in slumber. “I shared this incident with Captain Vijay Bahadur, instructor of flying club, Patna. We wrote to all the higher officials of Patna appealing them to work for Ganga,” he remembers.

His slogans –  “Ganga ki dhara ko wapas lao” (Bring back the clean currents of Ganga), “ Ganga putro jago” (Wake up! Oh, son of Ganga), “ Ganga ko pollution free karo” (Free Ganga of the pollution)– and his initiative of cleaning  Ganga soon found resonance among Patnaites. It was for the first time that a common man had come out to save Ganges. Guddu Baba was already featuring in headlines.

Drug Addiction and Indian Youth

I am not into drugs,” she repeats five times in course of a single chat. And she changes the storyline of her first brush with drugs in Delhi so often-in one she is offered a joint by a call centre colleague in the office car, in another a stranger cajoles her to snort in a toilet at Hotel Samrat-that you start doubting her claims.

Whichever version you believe, there’s no dithering when she describes the “cocktail” that quietly changes hands every midnight shift at her call centre: “Cough syrup and rum, pepsi or coke, with crushed spasmo proxyvon tablets and a bit of iodex.”

Tendulkar gets his golden jubilee

Sachin Tendulkar scored his 50th test century on Sunday but it looked unlikely to save India from losing the first test against South Africa .Tendulkar had batted for five hours in scoring 107 not out, sharing a defiant seventh-wicket stand of 172 with captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni (90) as India reached 454 for eight wickets when a storm ended play on the fourth day at Centurion. His landmark century, which came in 258 minutes and 197 balls of great composure and technique, had helped India reduce their deficit from 294 runs to 30, but the world's number one ranked team have just two wickets remaining.

Good morning world !!!

26/11

The terror attacks scarred mumbai like nothing else . Two years on , bloodied but unbowed , the city has come to terms with the tragedy with heroic fortitude , and moved on . Mumbai has been repeatedly devastated ( riots , blasts , floods ) and repeatedly it has picked itself up and got along with the business of going on . This ineffable quality is most frequently conveyed in vulgar truism , one that people reach for as a shorthand to convey the city's indomitable nature : The Spirit of Mumbai .

Request all of you to light a candle of faith tonight at 9.30 pm .
