Merry Christmas!

On this happy occasion, here's another of my little secrets:

Every day morning when I wake-up, I remember the love, forgiveness, and compassion that Jesus showed even in the most difficult moments of any human being's life; how He transcended beyond the mortal body and the pain associated with it; and how He remained calm and composed even in the worst times. All true signs of divinity by any religious standards and beliefs.

I gratefully cherish the 17+ years of my education in catholic schools in India and US so far and look forward to more.

Merry Christmas!

Two of the gems from our ancient scripts, in this context:

Ekam Evadvitiyam (There is only one God; there is no second) - Ch. Up. (6.2.1)
Indro Mayaabhih puru-roopa iyate (God, on account of Maya is seen in many forms) - Br. Up. (2.5.9)

Manager's Job Satisfaction

A manager's true satisfaction lies in the number of people she
helped succeed and not in the extent of power exercised or
the number of layoffs authorized. Vishnu Pendyala

Always Attend to the Source

Plants grow when the roots are watered, creation blooms when the
creator is catered to, life flourishes when the parents, ancestors
and God are gratefully remembered. Vishnu Pendyala
