preach

Social media is a loudspeaker and one place to observe someone’s practice and preach duality. I keep meeting friends who work at various startups whose founders are the thought leaders on social media platforms. They laugh at how these leaders have different opinions in reality. The more I see social media more I realize the …

lost

We are all lost. Some with deep desires to be someone or leave a mark on this universe. Many disappeared into the darkness and gave up on life. Some are grieving and healing themselves. Some ended up losing life to alcohol and drugs. It is easy to get lost and disappear from this world. It …

Energy

People and your company can make or break your life. We all radiate some energy from within the universe. Some spread warmth, cheerfulness, and calm. Some others spread anger, jealousy, negativity, and hate. This energy and company shape us: monkey see, monkey do. We are the sum of our consciousness and experience. What will you …

own

When we are attracted to something, We want to own it. Why is it so?Why do we have to own or control things or people we like. What do we have in our control other than our consciousness? Why do we have to buy everything or expect everything has a price? With age, I am …

fearless

One piece of advice I will give to my younger self is to be more fearless. Take more risks, venture more into the journey unimaginable and get out of comfort. It is humbling to see 18-20 years kids have figured out what they want. When you are fearless, you have a world of opportunity that …

Internship

The concept of the internship was different in our times. Our seniors were more empathetic and were excellent guides. These days I feel we have rewritten the definition of an internship. We are asking way too much from these kids: offering them money and expecting them to be more like full-time employees. It does not …

onions

We, humans, are like onions. Every layer has its own story, and for an outsider, we are just projections of the version we portray. Nobody cares what is going on in your other aspects of life but wants to see more of you and your bikini pics or jokes on Twitter. We are all lost …

bubble

There is a big bubble brewing in the financial market. The trillions of paper /currency US treasury minted are not helping. The stock market is at an all-time low. I have been speaking to founders and investors off-late. Some predict a meltdown for the next few years. I graduated in 2007, in a recession. India …

trust

Capitalism has put trust in the back seat. Old days we had a family physician, butcher, or milkman. They cared for us, and we trusted them with their quality of service. With time we are merely limited to buying or consuming. There is a pure transaction at play. We are just another face paying for …

others

Why do we have to let our happiness be dependent on someone else? Whose life are we living? Why is this dependency? We are the sum of people around us and our thoughts apart from how we react to adversaries. Still, why do others matter so much? The sooner we realize that life is painful …
