SG Ruminations Vol 1 by Sabari Ganesh (booksvooks .txt) 📖

What is the point in giving importance to relatives? I am here today; with some people around me; focus is to be good and ethical to those around. Life is a very short journey. I am amazed at the amount of politics and malice around. Everything is inherently impermanent. Passing clouds. Human heart should beat seventy two times per minute; even if two beats are missed, we are no more. Such is our guarantee..

When such is our guarantee; where is the question or place for us to claim that we have achieved something?.. Everything is predetermined. We are just puppets in the hands of the almighty. The mere thought that we perform is an illusion. Sheer stupidity. Sensible to be humble.

As long as the thought that we perform exist, karma exist. As long as karma exist, cycle of birth and death exist. The thought that "I am this body" is our punishment. The body of a person dead naturally a minute ago; in front of us. Every body part is intact; but nothing is functional. Reason out.

This body is a machine. I am neither this body, nor the mind, nor the intellect. Hence, superior or inferior based on any of these is baseless. Life is a very short journey. Our ability and intention to spread positive thoughts and actions in the betterment of people around beautifies it.

Enhance employability - Focus on skill sets - Match it with the demand factor of companies. An MBA minus skill sets is the real issue. "Knowing" and "Performing" are two different and distinct entities. The focus of aspiring professionals in colleges should be on skill sets than test scores, aggregates and branded institutions. Change in corporate India - hierarchy, formalities and red tape gets a beating. Employee's personal life and recreation are given importance.

The best medicine to our economy is to simplify the life style of our citizens. Minimise wants. the public utility services should be overhauled. An efficient and effective public transport system should minimise the number of private vehicles on road. Sheer management.

Good People give Happiness. Bad People give Experience. Worst People give Lesson. Best People give Memories. Life is a conglomerate of all.

Happiness is a derivative of materialization of our desires. The struggle we endure today fills us with the strength that we need tomorrow. Happiness is a choice. We are as happy as we choose to be..

Nothing awe about Efficiency and Perfection. Proper focus and planned repetition bears perfection. Confidence matters. Simple. Best way to efficiency - Understand the process; split it into successive tasks; map requisite skill set to individual tasks; hire accordingly. Factors of Success in HR - enhance employee productivity - individual responsibility and accountability - flexible rules - work-life balance.

Treat every child like adults. Respect their behaviour. Give them a patient hearing. Ninety nine percent of child abuse issues can be prevented. Good Parenting 'tis called.

Complete trust is the base for any relationship.

Trees chopped down; Multi-storeyed buildings on cultivable lands and ponds; Road full of polluting vehicles; Global Warming and Melting Glaciers are mere indications of the myopic mentality of mankind. Development is when every citizens basic necessities are fulfilled with considerable ease and finesse; not in making luxuries as necessities.

Human Body is made up of the same five elements of the Nature. When we abuse nature and its resources; we are abusing ourselves. Simple. We are not intelligent but foolish and deluded.

Money is directly proportional to problems, as long as we have it; But becomes inversely proportional to problems, when we don't have it. Be simple.

Development of technology and intellect when reacts with the selfish attitude of people would only result in destruction. All said and done; what do we humans need? Technology to fight with others? or ability to forgive and live in peace? When advancement in science dictates deserting ethical sense; scientific temper to what avail?

Temples and pilgrimage centers are not centers of business dealings. They are such places where we sacrifice our ego and self-centered attitude. What is the point in running around temples and pilgrimage centers; without the much needed attitude of complete surrender?. Self-deception.

Blasts in religious centers occur due to the miserable failure of these centers to identify themselves with spirituality and humanity. Violence; child of hatred; grandchild of discrimination; great grandchild of partiality; great-great grandchild of selfishness.

Peace among nations shall be possible only when we understand each other mutually based on our religious outlook and uphold humanity. Even if all our military and technological might is dismantled, we would fight the other with sticks if we do not possess this understanding. Religious clashes occur due to our inability to perceive humanity.
