Dear Sister

Jai Guru Deva, Dear Alka, Your tears would take the heart of mine. oh God! Your loss would not allow you to be fine. Your courage  would inspire a coward. Valor in the blood is your reward. Your salute is powerful than a bullet. Bravo! your war cry would thunder my heart every minute. Sarvejana Sukhinobhavantu, -Karthik

Today's message from Guruji!!!

Image
Jai Guru Deva, here is the message from Guruji today: Life will always move in the direction of the best. On the way you may find some rough roads, but they will lead you to a better life. Difficulties give you depth and joy gives you width. The wise see their past as destiny, the future as free will and are happy in the present. The unwise regret the past, think the future is destined and are miserable in present. The choice is yours. Keep smiling. The past has taught us many lessons; what we should be doing and what we should not. Every pain that we went through brought us some depth, and all the joys and pleasures gave us a new vision of life and hope for the future. Sarvejana Sukhinobhavantu, -Karthik

2014...

Jai Guru Deva, 2014 had witnessed me getting promoted to a manager and on personal side I had become a father. My son Sathvik was born on 26th Oct 2014. This is the biggest event for 2014. the year started with my promotion getting confirmed and the scope of my work had increased with time. I started taking newer responsibilities and as expected my work load also increased :) This did not bother me much as I was prepared for it but it does bother my wife a lot as I got averse to going out on weekends. On the other side, we had witnessed few escalations in the forecasting that I am managing and I started building a base for better managing the forecast activities. Come March-April I had travelled to Vancouver and that was a memorable trip. I could not forget the view of Mt.Hood when I came out of my hotel room and see out side.. that was a manifestation of purity of mother nature and one of the greatest sources of joy for me in that whole tour. On  a professional note ...

Thank you M.A. Jinnah ;-)

Jai Guru Deva, My politically ideology is definitely against two nation theory but after seeing this video I cant help but feel glad that Pakistan is a separate country. Cant believe such behaviour from elderly gentlemen and particularly from those who are well educated. Here goes the video Sarvejana Sukhinobhavantu, -Karthik

Thy name SATHVIK

Jai Guru Deva, Today I want announce that we have named our son as SATHVIK. He is born on 26th Oct 2014 and will complete three months this weekend. His complete name would be "INDRAKANTI VEERABHADRA SATHVIK". I have added our family God's name as I want him to be covered with divine grace that was protecting our family for several centuries. We have selected Sathvik as the name because me and my wife have thought that its good name before our marriage. Also when we were doing the chanting for Lord Siva, one of the names was Sathvik and it is then right infront of the havan I have decided that his name will be Sathvik. When he was born I thanked the Almighty for blessing us with him and let the grace be flown on him. I have not thought that he will become so and so or he will do so and so. All I prayed the almighty is to let him become a responsible human and make a positive contribution to the society he is part of. Request everybody to bless the little one...

15th Jan 2005!!!

Jai Guru Deva, On this very day ten years ago, me and my friend Ravi won the prize in paper presentation competition in Vignan Tech Fest, Guntur. This was my first prize in paper presentations. Though I got several prizes for quiz etc in 2004 getting prize in paper presentation was always special. I had a sound sleep that night. Yes, between 2000 and 2005 there were very less days when I had a lengthy sleep. Every minute I lived, every breathe I took, I craved for success. particularly from 2003, nothing seemed important to me than my self development. Perhaps for this reason I got several prizes and awards during this time. However, icing on the cake was my GATE rank. will write later about it. Coming to our Vignan adventure, it was a typical Karthik-Ravi comic episode. Serious preparation, amazing concept, spectacular missing of some simple but important thing and finally pulling it off with sheer grit and stubborn attitude. The concept of our paper was Computer Integrated ...
