Coconut ladoos with a surprise inside!

On the occasion of Rakshabandhan (A day on which sisters tie rakhi, a decorative thread on their brothers' hand and serve sweets to them whereas in return they receive gifts from their brothers), I prepared these simple and delicious coconut ladoos with a surprise inside them.

Any guess what could be the surprise?

An evening at Taj Hotel!

I was invited for dinner at Taj Palace Hotel, New Delhi. It was more of a high party then a business meeting. After some business related discussions, dinner was served. Although there was wide range of cuisines but on my plate there was only a few slices of guava and water melon. And no alcohol.

Its me simple! Its my 550th post! :)

GOD stands up?

I was doing my prayers in a temple. And I was about to move then a person, stranger to me said "You must listen to me! It is beneficial for you!!"
Out of respect, I stayed to hear him. He stopped two more persons of different age groups in the similar manner.
"When one bows his head before GOD like this." While narrating, he put his head on the slab in front of the deity. And the priest put his hands on deity's feet and then on his head, showering GOD's blessings on him.
"Then only GOD stands up to shower blessings to us. And when GOD stands up what else one wants."

Do you think it is a spiritual teaching or a mere stupid joke? 

Romance on chandelier!

What a beautifully painted ceiling and walls! And Pigeons are romancing!!

An artistic place they have selected for romancing. Haven't they?

Adventurous goat

This goat was standing on near about 12 feet high wall. How did it reach there without using these steps? 

Eco-friendly art work

While my trip to Jaipur, I clicked these pics of eco-friendly art work in which metal is molded to give different shapes. I liked them very much.

Dear readers, can you recognize all of them?

Hurt by snake and human being

I read somewhere on net

If a snake bites an individual he never gets angry with the snake (even if it is a poisonous snake and has potential to kill that person.) They never have a bitter feelings towards that snake. Why? because that individual accepts that it is the nature of the snake to bite and may be kill too.

Our relationship with other individuals is always different though. Everyone gets hurt deeply with few words if they are unacceptable. Those words destroy several days of our life. The memory of those words stays in mind forever.

Why it happens so? Because we can accept a snake can kill, but we cannot accept a person can hurt with words. We have a different set of expectations from people and snake.

Dear readers what do you think is it easy or difficult to practice this philosophy in life?
