I have been, a couple of times, very strongly advised to read The Geeta by someone I have a lot of respect for. Almost 10 years back I indeed started for it, but could read only one page in a couple of hours that day, as the book appeared to me so deep in its content.

Ramdasji heard him out and gave him permission to do so. Shivaji was happy

Successful people are those who can make career decisions with two things in mind — `Will I be happy at work’ and `Will I be happy at home’.

Few people think of the revolution in the film industry as a success of economic liberalisation. Yet, it was made possible only by the deregulation of a great many sectors - filmmaking, banking, capital markets, TV, theatre-building - plus the lifting of price control on tickets.Click here for the full article

While this may seem the simplest enough line of questioning to follow, it is in fact the most difficult to live. For to be honest to it, you must brutally and unflinchingly question. It is not widely popular, because it is time consuming. You will not arrive at your answers today, or tomorrow, or probably even in this lifetime.
