Be-title

Kuch dino se [shayad kaafi dino se] I have not written much or anything of consequence but today is a new day [or night should I say] and by a happy coincidence I was presented with food for thought by a bunch of bloggers themselves .

I am not what you would call a regular “Geeky” blogger and even though the things I do in my daily life are classified by most as geeky I hate to write anything technical. I mean to say that my blog is a reflection of my personality . It is very easy to form a mental picture of what a person is like by looking at his writings . The purpose of writing a blog is to be able to put your thoughts down in writing.

Power from salt

Read an scientific article today which promised that we could one day generate power from salt . Now thats something new … I mean how easy and simple would it become if we were to generate power from such a source . Reading this article I could not help but notice a parallel in history.

I believe power was generated from salt way earlier , real , manifested , coercive power which brought an entire government to its knees . This power was produced from salt , one of the basic needs of life , which was used as a weapon to subdue an entire populace . I am talking of the SALT SATYAGRAH of 1930 .

Taking a sabbatical

I’ve been writing non-stop for some time now . I need to take a break for a few days .

Caught in the cycle of birth and re-birth

Why does man get so attached?? So much so that he’s afraid of change?? Why do all good things have to end??

What is the ultimate purpose of life?? What do I seek from life?? What is MY purpose ??? What is the reason of my being??

Some pertinent questions for which I have not yet found any satisfactory answer … Plus why did I start thinking on these lines for is it not that one must do his KARM without worrying about the outcome ?? But then again any work or action without purpose is useless , there’s got to be some justification [not those served up by William].. so here I am at a crossroad in life thinking about why I have done things in a certain way , trying to put things into perspective , trying hard and yet not succeeding…

My First Blog-Guys I’m here

Well after much dithering I finally decided , rather should I say got someone else, to start my blog.As always I have been hesitant when it came to starting to write my blog.

Fact is I made up my mind after some of the LUG Manipal guys , namely Shashank and Ankur , pestered me about the LUG Site and stuff . I am supposed to contribute in some meaningful way to the upcoming LUG site as well as with the Wiki but for some unfathomable reason I don’t find the inclination to do it , though at the back of my mind I remember that it is something that I should be doing.

So a big HELLO to all you webies and bloggers.

This  is me Ayush signing off for now.
