The bloody virus has plagued every aspect of our lives, in ways that we do not even fully comprehend, yet. Our exploratory endeavors educate us of something new, progressively incriminating about the pathogen- we lose to it, every day! But as we’re wired to suppose – we keep reminding ourselves of the need to be…
Action in curious times!
We’re in confusing times, making choices have never been more taxing, as a result, more often than not, we find ourselves attaching the cart before the horse. Humans have never quite known the future when I say this I discount the audacious claims that the astrologers make. We have, however, mastered the art of basing…
Co-existing with COVID19!
कारवाँ गुज़र गया, गुबार देखते रहे (Gopaldas, ’Neeraj’) Yes the Virus is here, yes it is highly contagious and yes it is deadly! So what do we do? Fight, Freeze, or Flee? I’m afraid to inform you ‘Fleeing’ is not an option. You gotta either confront the virus or hibernate into oblivion, perhaps…
Essentialism, care to try?
People have, I’d assume unintentionally, made possessions the yardstick of success. A large part of who you are gets defined, at least, socially, by what you own; consumerism is a powerful force.

Undemocratic India!
Discrimination by the law is unjust, on that account both Article 370 and 35A, did not have a place in present-day India. Special status by definition is discriminatory and particularly hated by the Indians who live outside J&K and did not benefit from its provisions. The gripe, however, has been getting relentless support from the…
Impediments to change
You won’t find very many disagreeing with the universality of the statement – “Change is the only constant and, yet, there is only a handful changing for real. How can a virtue which has such paramount acceptance have such abysmal application? Well, for starters, let’s just say, all of us have lied at some point…
Antidote to insecurities
Do you know what is the funniest thing about insecurity? That it is a good thing and also a bad thing at the same time. Yes, you heard me right. And this my friends is not just an academic argument but also a practical one. Your disagreement with me at this stage of the article…
