Land of Water

-



Walking on a land of water

Drenched from head to toe

I heard the water play some music

In its orchestral flow.



Falling on the dense leaves

The shower tinkled down

Puddles around, for me to clown

Several muddy and brown.



Here a slosh &

There a slosh

A jump, a skip, a roll

Danced away with nature’s percussion

My merry little soul.



Gurgle-ish and Burble-ish

A musician I heard

Walked across into the woods

A stream I discovered



Twitter-a-Tick-a

Chitter-a-chick

The birds were fluting on

Ding-a-dong Oh sing-a-song

We all coo-ed along



A distant beat, which joined the feat

Announced its presence then

Looked towards the mighty hills lined with

White clothed men



A tap dance on the rocky floor

With the beat of our rhythm

They performed to complete the show

A jazzy one to fathom



Green & Blue & White & Brown

Our dress codes did the trick

Brilliant artists they were deemed

Nature’s rarest pick!

When The Buddha Smiled on India...

On 12 th October 1973, David Davies- a geophysicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who worked on seismic detection of underground nuclear tests- predicted that India would be the sixth country to conduct nuclear weapon tests. After 7 months he was proven correct by the ingenuity of Indian scientists and the fortitude of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Canada sold a 40 megawatt Canadian-Indian Reactor, U.S. (CIRUS) to India in 1956. India had the necessary manpower and capacity to develop and test a nuclear weapon. The heavy water needed to control Nuclear Fission had been provided by the US. So what made India abstain from performing the nuclear test and from becoming the first Nuclear Power? It is probably the chaste intention to maintain a mellow camaraderie with the other countries or a mere lack of grit in the Indian leadership. Meanwhile India refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty in 1970.  When questioned over it, our ambassador ...

Do you know what a breathalyzer is? The device that cops use to estimate whether a driver is drunk or not. Yes that one in which you breath into the device and it tells you whether you have had alcohol. Well, if there were a breathalyzer to detect the level of stress in a person at a certain point of time we would all be taking the test. It would become a household commodity like the weighing scale. People would measure stress every morning before leaving home and every night before sleeping. Psychiatrists and Psychologists would make you take the test before they call you in for an appointment. Now imagine if this device could measure the stress according to the category of stress - the alcohol analogy would be: measuring the alcohol content by the type of alcohol; how much whisky, how much beer, how much wine and how much vodka has been consumed? Take -stress due to family issues, stress due to social issues, stress due to personal issues, stress due to workplace issues and so on.....
