CCL

Have a great day.

In 2008 the CCL introducted 'Pat Culture'--that is to reward had work. And the rewards today went to the very higher officials of the Coal sector. What a Pat yaar !

Have a great day.

North Korea

Have a great day.

Can football bridge the gape between isolated North Korea and the rest of the world ? Jong Tae-Sae's uncontrolable sobbing as North Korean national anthem played ahead of its World Cup tie with Brazil left a touching sight and the world should read every drop of his tear, which might symbolise the tears of every North Korean.

Charges

Have a great day.


Please don't frame charges or throw baseless accusations against anybody.

Ethics

Have a great day.

Ethics, values and morals are found in choked drains of .........,crying for attention...have never seen crooks stooping so low that there is no hole to bend more...no work culture, no respect on the basis of fellow human beings following condmenable castism...feeling suffocation, no space to breathe freely...

Jharkhand

Have a great day.

Jharkhand has been in political turmoil ever since it was carved out from Bihar on November 15, 2000, largely because of the politicians' divided opinions and personal ambitions, ignoring state's interests and making it the first state where development has been a virtual non-starter.

They should read and decipher the following lines written by a great political thinker.

"Dogmatism is an enemy to peace, and an insuperable barrier to democracy...(blatant lies and opportunism is the death nail for democracy too)...

"But so long as men are not trained to withhold judgement in the absense of evidence, they will be led astray by cocksure prophets, and it is likely that their leaders will be either ignorant fanatics or dishonest charlatans...

"....becomes divided into rival groups of fanatics, each group firmly persuaded that its own brand of nonsense is sacred truth, while the other side's is damnable heresy...

"Our confused and difficult world needs various things if it is to escape disaster, and among these one of the most necessary is that, in the nations which still uphold liberal beliefs, these beliefs should be wholehearted and profound, not apologetic towards dogmatisms of the right and of the left, but deeply persuaded of the value of liberty, scientific freedom, and mutual forbearance. For without these beliefs life on our politically divided but technically unified planet will hardly continue to be possible."

Realise

Have a great day.

"To realize
The value of a sister/brother

Positiveenergy

Have a great day.

Make efforts to inculcate positive energy in negative persons.

"Negative persons look at the faults; they pick out the shortcomings; they point out the defects; they show the imperfections; they spot the flaws; they focus on the wrinkles; they check the stains; they look for the negatives. They miss everything that is positive and great;"

They never look at your strong points, honesty, perfection, love, affection, sympathy, dedication, devotion, determination, punctuality and above all humility.

Aircrash

Have a great day.

My heart goes out with the victims of the Mangalore aircrash. May the Almighty give strength to their families to bear the loss that could never be fulfilled.

Jharkhand

Have a great day.

Don't stop, just keep trying like politicians of Jharkhand untill you get the goldmine, no matter if it hurts others ? Phewooooooooooooooh! Eh you ! Just kidding, never follow politicians, particularly those from .........

Journalist

Have a great day.

Journalism is a noble profession, and enjoyable too. But surving in this profession is mightily difficult because the nature of many journalists -- who are pseudo intellecutals, particularly in Ranchi --- and such characters can build up a strong network among themselves and start browbeating, humiliate and hound real journalists.

How can a street singer become a journalist ?

There is no harm in becoming one as every one has a right to choose and leave one's profession as per his/her choice.

But those ex-street singers sometimes become a real hurdle in others' careers, and matters become anti-social, for the society will lose a real journalist and the street singer becomes the master of the fraternity. Such psuedo-journalist sows the seeds of disharmony in the society through his psuedo-intellectuality and notions which suit a section of pig-headed politicians.

This street singer, joined by some people with circus background become the real jokers, who gag the voice of the real journalists instead of making them humourous.

త్రౌబ్లెస్

"...And when you run into problems, you will have the calm assurance that they can't get any bigger -- but you can !"

Dhoni

Have a great day.

Please don't target M S Dhoni for one lapse. The same people who use to chase and die at the sight of Dhoni are speaking evil against him. Such people are no less than the politicians, who are anyway scoundrels.

What will you say when Dhoni gets back to his past flair like he did after some idiots, including from the electronic media, attacked his under construction house and burnt his effigy after India's loss to Bangladesh in a World Cup tie a few years ago ?

Keep a window open before criticising anybody.

Lumpen

Have a great day.

Lumpens are growing in leaps and bounds......Can we stop the lumpish ?

Confucious

Have a great day.

"Don't do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself."

Naxal

Have a great day.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has more than once said naxalism is the single most internal threat to India. Following his concern, India's Home Minister P Chidambaram has drawn a strategy to tackle the menace.

Tharoor

Have a great day.

Tharoorji! What is your next book ? Is it 'Sunanda Pushkar, a holy cow'? If so, make it a Bollyhood masala-type.

God

Have a great day.

When you are in trouble,don't ever say, "Oh! God I have a big problem, instead say, Oh! Problem, I have big God!"

dogs

Have a great day.

What will happen if dogs start to speak, human beings will start to bark.

TigerWoods

Have a great day.

"I lied to a lot of people, deceived a lot of people, and I also lied to myself," these are the words spoken by Golfer Tiger Woods-----There could be countless personalities like Woods, who only confess after being caught....Why not follow a self-imposed moral code to avoid such public embarrassment.

'ఫ్రెండ్స్'

Have a great day.

Oh, petty minds when will you grow!

The time has come for shedding your sheep's clothing and giving up hypocrisy. Come on, don't think you are outsmarting others with your foolish mind-set---we are competent enough to understand everything from day one. But just wanted to learn whether negative and conceited characters which we read in fairy tales and panchatantra stories during our childhood really exist in this world.

Now come out from your delusions and illusions about befooling others. In reality, you people have befooled yourself, bescheeching in enormous problems that you people have been facing of late----God bless you dear so called friends.

peace

Have a great day.

Every person is fighting against the other, but nobody knows why...piece together the fragments of brotherhood and experience peace.

Hua

Have a great day.

It's not good cheating, fighting and playing tricks with every one, and than defaming him/her with all sorts of baseless and wild allegations---I would like such persons to read the following message.

"Allow each soul to walk its path....Please don't trap genuine and honest persons, who only respond to keep one's word, for God's sake, otherwise people will stop believing even genuine friends."

Journalist

Have a great day.

We should resist to become a bureaucratic-minded journalist. Isn't it ? Because if you apologise anybody they would term it as grovelling apology, and if you don't they will term it arrogant and hot-head-----people will have their opinion anyway, just ignore them

Problem

Have a great day.

Don't create problems for others, for every one is buried with problems. The following quote found in a very good book is for those who constantly wait to add up to the problems of their friends, relatives and colleagues.

"Problems may only be avoided by exercising good judgment. Good judgment may only be gained by experiencing life's problems."

worry

Have a great day.

Choose your friends, for not everybody can become a good friend...Why worry about worries when worry itself does not worry...

politician

Have a great day.

I thought the world is full of crooks and conceited elements. But after reading the following in a famous book, my opinion changed; but it is a herculean task to spot such persons.

"We will have to learn that not all people are just, that not all people are fair, and that not all people are true. But...for every villain there is a hero, that for every crooked politician there is a great and dedicated leader, and that for every enemy there is a good friend."

Appeal

Have a great day.

Please don't cut cruel jokes on anybody, for it pushes that person into a whirlpool of negative thoughts. This will affect his performance, which is vital to the uplift of any society.

The sorry part of cutting cruel jokes is depriving the victim from sharing qualilty time with people who callthemselves as his or her friend. This is an appeal one should take it seriously.

Harmony

Have a great day.

"What do we live for if not to make life less difficult for each other ?"

Politicians

Have a great day.

When politicans get power they start unveling statues and busts of famous personalities.

When they lose power they give statements against vandals destroying them to spark clashes.

Destress

Have a great day.

Destressing yourself in fifteen different ways.

1-Pray for five minutes daily.

2-Avoid any type of arguement.

3-Don't show your emotions publicly, so that you will not regret at leisure.

4-Ignore disgruntled and frustrated people.

9-Never wag your tongue unnecessarily.

10-Grin ear-to-ear at your best friends and well-wishers

11-Neither take things seriously nor lightly---strike a balance

12-Ignore abusive persons.

13-If you don't like something, speak it out.

14-Set goals and targets to maintain your focus.

15-Amend yourself instead of striving to change others.

LAW

Have a great day.

"Any law is invariably used to supress freedom of speech first, but never acts upon the guilty...Therefore, a good person ought to take care of himself/herself, for you never know about what persons-in-power will do against you for speaking the truth."

Have a great day.

This is for Lalit Modi. --- "The greedy power that lives by cricketers labour."

Courage

"Who has courage or faith will never perish in misery."

Authority

"Authority has often enough sought to fool others and increase its own power. From childhood up we are taught this worship of authority in various forms. It is the service to fear, not of love." Ha ha

FOOL

"The Bearded, the Bald and the Fool"

HELL

If one is in hell one thinks it is the Paradise---one can't change one's mind bent on hellish thoughts.

JAWAHARLAL NEHRU

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru to Indira Gandhi dated March 28, 1932.

Habit

"A habit is something you can do without thinking - which is why most of us have so many of them." --- So friends and relatives should be cooperative so that the person can overcome bad habits.

Minds

"Great spirits have always encountered violence opposition from mediocre minds."

Bureaucrats1

Why some bureaucrats have become so impolite ? Is it because of the pressure from their political masters or unstable governments ?

Hi

Whoa! Who stops you from climbing the ladder ?

Wings

"I thought to fly like a bird but realised I have limbs instead of wings."

Peace

“Know your place, else it will be occupied by somebody else…
…..Who has snatched your bread and butter ?
…….Huh ! Who else than the multinationals.
…………Behaviour is linked with a peaceful mind
………….and for a peaceful mind multi should be deleted to
………….cultivate friendship first and then competion."

"Correcting faults and finding faults are two different things --- one is to encourage a person to improve while the other is to discourage him or her."

रेगिओनल Parties

"Can Regional parties keep the nation united ? Regional parties should come out from their cocoon and look beyond their narrow thoughts ?"

Sardar

Forward mail We all love Sardar jokes. But do you know that Sikhs are one of the hardest working prosperous and diversified communities in the world.

My friend told me about the following incident which I wish to share with you.

It has had a deep impact on my thinking.

During last vacation, his few friends came to Delhi . They rented a taxi for local sight-seeing. The driver was an old Sardar and boys being boys, these pals began cracking Sardarji jokes, just to tease the old man. But to their surprise, the fellow remained unperturbed.

At the end of the sight-seeing, they paid the cab hire-charges. The Sardar returned the change, but he gave each one of them one rupee extra and said, ''Son, since morning you have been telling Sardarji jokes..

I listened to them all and let me tell you, some of them were in bad taste. Still, I don't mind coz I know that you are young blood and are yet to see the world..

But I have one request. I am giving you one rupee each. Give it to the first Sardar beggar that you come across in this or any other city.'
My friend continued,* ' That one rupee coin is still with me. I couldn't find a single Sardar begging anywhere.'

MORAL:

The secret behind their universal success, is their willingness to do any job with utmost dedication and pride. A Sardar will drive a truck or set up a roadside garage or a dhaba, put a fruit juice stall, take up small time carpentry, ... but he will never beg on the streets.

Time-3

Time is a great reminder

"Clock is a machine of great moral value to man,
allaying his concern for the future by reminding
him what a lot of time remains to him.

For a long time it had seemed to me that life
was about to begin-real life.

But there was always some obstacle in the way,
something to be Gotten through first, some unfinished
business.

Time still to be served, or debt to be paid.
Then life would begin.

At last it dawned on me that these obstaacles were
my life."

"We all have our time machines.
Some take us back, they're called memories.
Some take us forward, they're called dreams.

You may delay but time will not.

Time-1

"Time is free but it's priceless.
You can't own it but you can use it.
You can't keept it, but you can spend it.
Once you have lost it you can never get it back.

"Time is more valuable than money.
You can get more money,
But you cannot get more time.

"We are so obsessed with doing that we have
no time and no imagination left for being.
As a result,men are valued not for what they
are but for what they do or what they have-for
theri usefulness.

"Time is really the only capital that any
human being has, and the only thing he can't
afford to lose."

Time

Lost time is never found again.

Time is the strongest force of nature that surely rules both nature and human kind.

Time has three important impressions of its nature; Past, Present and Future.

It ruled the past that is why we call it history.

It rules the present and we call it development.

And it is always prepared to rule the future, so we call it vision.

Every person has different ways to relate and value time.

We often forget to understand its importance.

Some power packed words defining time and its control on ourlives is
perfect to remind us constantly, what a beautiful gift life has given to
us, in the form of time.

Some great quotations or words of expressions are just reflections

of our state of mind, how we feel and relate with life.

To make us understand the value and power of time.

Remember; Lost time is never found again.

Whispers

"The man whispered , 'God , speak to me' and a meadowlark sang.
But , the man did not hear.

So the man yelled , 'God , speak to me' and the thunder rolled across the sky.
But , the man did not listen.

The man looked around and said , 'God let me see you.' And a star shone brightly.

But the man did not see.

And , the man shouted , 'God show me a miracle.' And , a life was born.
But , the man did not notice.

So , the man cried out in despair , 'Touch me God , and let me know you are here.' Whereupon , God reached down and touched the man. But , the man brushed the butterfly away .
and walked on.

I found this to be a great reminder that God is always around us in the little and simple things that we take for granted ... even in our electronic age So I would like to add one more: The man cried , 'God , I need your help!' And an e-mail arrived reaching out with good news and encouragement.

But , the man deleted it and continued crying .

Don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way that you expect. My instructions were to send this to people that I wanted God to bless , and I picked you. Won't you please pass this to people you want to be blessed. Expect the unexpected.....Have A Great Day!"

Prayer

"World will be a peaceful place if people more interested in prayer than finding out the non-believers."

Buddha

Bureaucrat

"Some bureaucrats think they are oblging the society."


"It is shame that some MPs in Rajya Sabha, considered house of elders, almost coming to blows."

Liberhan

Liberhan slams media, says he is not characterless...one wonders why he has to explain about his character...that could speak unto itself....several people weilding power in Jharkhand also lose cool like Liberhan....where is the country heading.....cool down.

Thunder

"Thunder and lightning ! Do you suppose I am going to speak of those cattle that way ? Do you suppose my subscribers to goiong to stand such gruel as that ? Give me the pen !"

Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar is the pride of India --- don't play with the pride of a nation.

Instead of advising Tendulkar what he should do his detractors should should learn the three Ds -- dedication, discipline, devotion---from him.

Dignity

"Is it because of zero tolerance policy against abusive and offensive language that makes one subjet to ridicule ? Help to maintain dignity and decorum by not ridiculing people."

Sachin Tendulkdar

Congratulations to glorious Sachin Tendulkar on completing 20 years on a cricket pitch, surviving sledgings from opponents.

I take inspiration from Sachin to withstand sledgings and double meaning dialogues from my media friends (some of them don't deserve to be friends) in Ranchi. That is why Dhoni avoids Ranchi media.

I wish a century of centuries by Tendulkar before he hangs up bat

…..a painter loves to draw nude portraits….we are human beings, we make mistakesbut if we are right we will be protected by the judicial system….never do wrong or injustice to anyone and you will be on top of the world.…I believe there is only one religion, which is Humanity. Respect human life, it is too precious to waste.

Ants duty is to work 24x7...water's urge is to fill up all the ant holes. Nobody can help, that's the way people too put hurdles on the path of hardworkers.

Cohesion

"How to combine that degree of individual initiative which is necessary for progress, with the degree of social cohesion which is necessary for survival."

Don't jump to conclusions. Respect the feelings of other fellow citizens. You can't demand respect. So, "Only seek peace through action instead of reacting and responding to rotten brains...(because) a lamp is made only to burn and it must keep on burning. Its pursuit is its reward."

Smart

Smartness is good, but oversmartness irritates others-----

"The modern-minded man, although he believes profoundly in the wisdom of his period, must be presumed to be very modest about his personal powers.

"His highest hope is to think first what is about to be thought, to say what is about to be said, and to feel what is about to be felt; he has no wish to think better thoughts than his neighbours, to say things showing more insight, or to have emotions which are not those of some fashionable group, but only to be slightly ahead of others in point of time.

"Quite deliberately he suppresses what is individual in himself for the sake of the admiration of the herd.....what is the use of an eccentric opinion."

Justice

Can we expect justice ? Can we overcome castism, communalism and parochialism ?

"What a commentary is this upon human justice ! What sad prominence it gives to our human disposition to tyrannise over the weak !"

Okay

Why am I so angry, so frightened and so sad ?

I searched a lot; but could not find any satisfactory answers.

Can we get any answer from the following observations made by a great author ?

"....Enlarging (positive) objects of thoughts (can work) as antidote to the anxieties and anguish of the present, and makes possible the nearest approach to serenity that is available to a sensitive mind in our tortured and uncertain world."

Peace

"After ages during which the earth produced harmless trilobites and butterflies, evolution progressed to the point at which it generated Neros, Genghis Khans, and Hitlers. This, however, is a passing nightmare; in time the earth will become again incapable of supporting life, and peace will return."

World

Your hunger should be motivation for your success;

Your desire should be fodder for your growth;

Your impulse should be incentive for your aim;

Your persuation should be your provocation;

Your reason should be your push for work;

Your urge for knowledge should be your stiumulous.

These are the words which give comfort in unruly areas. There is nothing like putting one’s emotions in words. Enjoy how words rushing through your pen to help you out from this present state of turmoil that has been afflicting the society.

Still, you should work for the country with a nationalistic feeling and thinking at the same time for universal brotherhood.

Don’t afraid of people who don’t know their existence, but only know how to look for food----which even a bug, bird and beast do.

People take false pride in singing paeans of Lal, Bal, Pal and Gandhiji. In reality, they are cashing in on the images of these great patriots.

One can't but feel ashamed, pity and angry at those who don’t know how to lead the people...as this his world is not for sensible people, who, anyway, have taken a back seat, leaving people like .... ..... ........ , who have left things in a mess.

A place where respect and affection are equated with a strainer, you can’t expect much. Hooray !

Lawless

Staying in a lawless state is equivalent to stay in a state of mourning eternally. This reminds us to the famous quote ----

"If indeed you must be candid, be candid beautifully; otherwise keep silent, for there is a man in our neighbourhood who is dying."

Hair cut

Inspirational Guru

A person told me that one of his detractors had been trying to dislodge him from his chair to occupy it with unethical means.

I suggested him to read a book written by an inspirational guru.

Following are some exerpts from that book;

"Change Fear into Excitement

Worry into Wonder

Expectation into Anticipation

Resistance into Acceptance

Disappointment into Detachment

Enrangement into Engagement,

Addiction into Preference

Requirement into Contentment

Judgment into Observation

Sadness into Happiness

Thought into Presence

Reaction into Response

and

Time of Turmoil into a Time of Peace' ---Hooray !

Employees

Stop breaking heads teaching pig-headed employees. They can't learn even if your head cracks. Take consolation from the following line and stay cool.

"Pity that the stags cannot teach swiftness to the turtles."

Conscience

"It is easier to cope with a bad conscience than with a bad reputation."

Gandhiji

We are operating in a dog-eat-dog world which Gandhiji never approved.

Naxalism

A senior IAS officer of Jharkhand recently told the Kolkata press that naxalism in Jharkhand had been exaggerated, hurting tourism in the state. A couple of months later, Union Home Minister declares Jharkhand along with Chhatisgarh as the 'epicentre' of naxalism.

Boredom

Backbiting is the outcome of some persons' fear and jealousy. The following lines from a famous author can erase the two dreaded senses from their mind.

"What he had once hoped for the Flock, he now gained for himself alone; he learned to fly, and was not sorry for the price that he had paid. Jonathan Seagull discovered that boredom and fear and anger are the reasons that a gull's life is so short, and with these gone from his thought, he lived a long fine life indeed."

Ravan1

A man and his son had come to a fair where hundreds of people were celebrating the burning of Ravan's effigy.

Here is a brief dialogue between the son and his father over the effigy burning.

Son - Papa, why Ravan's effigy is being burnt.
Father - Because Ravan was an evil and pigheaded character who stole Ram's wife Sita.

Son - But the person who lighted the effigy himself is facing charges of bigamy and swindling of government funds.

The man hussed up his son and headed home without waiting the effigy to reduce to ashes.

Shashi Tharoor

".....To my fellow-citizens-of-the-future, Independence Day merely meant early mornings in starched uniforms on parade grounds, relieved only by the comforting thought of no more classes....

"India's challenge is not to perfect it, but simply to make it better than it now is....

"Economic change must reach the ordinary Indian; it must, as it has done in Malaysia and Indonesia, resulting a visible improvement in the standard of living of the overwhelming majority of the people, including the poorest of the poor. This means that liberalization must produce not only shinier foreign cars for the affluent but jobs for the unemployed food for the hungry, and sending money in the hands of the needy."

These lines were found in Shashi Tharoor's India --- FROM MIDNIGHT TO THE MILLENNIUM.

Fables

"When you want to say something, say it frankly instead of taking the route of fables."
