'I was born into the Hebrew persuasion, but when I got older, I converted to narcissism' is a famous quote by Woody Allen.
He is more aware of the core belief than most of us, who harbour the belief that we are not in love with ourselves. The truth is we only love ourselves - t...
Meditation, Spiritual, Journey, Self, Isha, Tolle, Yoga, Consciousness, Presence - these have become buzzwords today. Almost everybody I know is aware of these things even if they are not actively practising. There is an aura or mystery around the whole spiritual journey which fe...
Saying YES to the moment is a buzzword these days. Surrender to what is will ring true if you are on a spiritual or self-growth path. And like anything profound and straightforward - we have managed to complicate it because we think with our minds. Our mind is flawed when it come...
I recently saw the movie, 'Stand and Deliver' based on the real-life story of Jamie Escalante, a math professor. He is famous for teaching calculus to high school students in Garfield High School in East LA. Most of the students are of Hispanic origins who passed the test.

There is a lot of news about the suicide of the Bollywood Actor - Sushant Singh Rajput. It has raised questions on the powerful few who own most of the industry - which movies make it, who is the hero etc. Soon after that, there was another post from a singer stating that it is t...
With the coronavirus shutdown, I am finding it easier to go inward. I had already started an introspection journey this year, so the lockdown came as a pleasant addition.
I wanted to share some experiences with you.
Engineering Days: I was not happy about the fact that I got ad...
Coronavirus - Let's start with THE topic on everybody's mind. Even if you do not want to hear about it you have no choice - it is impacting almost everything. We finally gave in to the fear that we might have no food at home (which made no sense) and Adam decided to make a trip t...
I have mentioned in the past that I do run a Bollywood Dance Class as a side hustle. It is my creative outlet for me, given the rest of my work is pretty organized.
It so happened that I choreographed wedding dances for three couples and one of them included proposal as well. An...
For reasons unfathomable at this point, I had watched Karate Kid sometime ago, and the line that stood out for me from that movie was - 'We think with our eyes.' We see something that feeds into our mind, and we create our lives through that.
It is very much like a computer - yo...
I am sure all of you have used rubber bands - they are very elastic. If they were stiff, then there is no point in using them. Each rubber band has its breaking point, but for the most part, they are flexible when it comes to holding things together - be it a small bundle of pens...
It is 2020, a new day, a new year, a new decade. Technically speaking, this is just another day with twenty-four hours in it. Non-technically speaking it is a big deal. People stay up till midnight to usher in this new dawn. Resolutions are made, relationships are built or broken...
While growing up at home in India, I was not very observant. But now that I am away and I come back - I see more and more. Like my parents make tea for the watchman and our maid everyday. My parents went to our neighbour's wedding, who also happens to be the Ruby Fruits shop' own...
As some of you know, we have the most gorgeous, most handsome, loveliest of all pups - Aki. His Instagram handle is iamluckyaki. Some would say that he is a little spoiled and they would be right. He gets daily massages, owns the house. He goes to daycare a few days in the week....
I was discussing with my parents on our weekly skype about a talk from Sadhguru about love and relationships. He talks about relationships in this quick 10-minute video(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwiWFQSDriI). And what he said made me think. He says that these bonds do not...
A scenario from work: Let's say I have an employee reporting to me and let's say there are some performance issues. And it is impacting her peers as well. I have a constructive conversation with her and feedback is received well. After a week I check in with her peers. Feedback i...
