26/11, The Day Of Terrorism and Tarzanism... The day will be remembered as the day of danger-stricken, faith-broken and civility-shattered Mumbaiker as well as Indians. Along with it, the day will also recognized as the day of integrated efforts made by Indian Police and Army to stabilize the civility and faith in the service and patriotism. It was a day when about 164 innocent people were killed and more than 300 were injured brutally. Not only the civil ians but guards of civilians were also shot to heavens. i would like to salute the officers,(Hemant Karkare,Ashok Kamte, Vijay Salaskar and Tukaram Omble ) naming them as patriots and express sheer shame on failure of the intelligence department and the coast-guard security. And what to be ashamed further that our government(always being the center of blames) couldn't provide enough compensation to the dead. Let alone the civilians, they have not paid well even officers martyred and living brave-hearts. If terrorists are bru...

Tiger Tiger Burning Bright! Just i saw a Tiger turning into flames and merging into the five elements of the universe…. i couldn’t hold my self remembering those famous lines of sir William Blake’s poetry ‘Tiger tiger burning bright!’ . May be with the different context but this tiger of Maharashtra was burning for people of Maharashtra. By his flames of aspirations he has enlightened  millions of Marathi souls. Nonetheless he has also ignited a patriotic fever among the people of the country by his simple yet strict remarks in his speeches. People may name him any way but it is also a truth that one can either love him or hate him but one can’t ignore him. He was a staunch opponent of the reservation policy. He was a person who thought beyond the caste who believed only in two castes all over the world, one the rich and the poor. He had opined in an interview with Arnav Goswami, the Times Now News Editor, “Make the poor rich but don’t make the rich poor.” ...

दीपावलीच्या पहाटवेळी... दीपावलीच्या पहाटवेळी पणत्यांनी प्रकाशपित्याचं स्वागत केलं. फटाक्यांच्या गजरान सारं गांव जागं झालं. तेल-उटण्याच्या मार्दनानं मग प्र्यत्येकानं अभ्यंग केलं. रांगोळीच्या गालीच्यानी आंगण सजवलं. सुंदर-सुंदर वेशभूषेन थोर-मोठ्यांसह लहानांना नटवल. काकड आरतीच्या घंटांनी नाद्ब्रःम्माला साकडं घातलं. फराळाच्या मेजवानीन खावैय्याचं पोट दुणावल "शुभ दीपावली ! शुभ दीपावली !" असं शेकहेंड करत आलिंगन देवून प्रत्येकाला सांगितलं. दीपावलीच्या पहाटवेळी पणत्यांनी  स्वागत असं प्रकाशपित्याचं केलं. .....इलेश.

Those Precious Five Minutes…..           Who is this chap to describe the value of time?  Readers may immediately start thinking so, if they are least bothered of the value of every passing second.  Some may not have the time even to read about the value of time or they may consider it as wastage of time to read about it.           Jr.  College Students, before five minutes of their exams, keep their heads submerged in the Classes notes or the Omnipresent and Omniscient Navneet. In our good old days, it was not like this.  Yes, ‘Old days’.  Though i am not so old and experienced, i have to term it precisely as ‘Old’.  This world is evolving at fast, faster and fastest speed.  It is fast enough to call the ‘past days’ as ‘years before’ and the ‘past years’ as ‘ages’, isn’t it? When you work at more than five institutions in a year as a teacher, your expe...
