Sea Fever by John Masefield

I MUST go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

Comment on Mr. Tridip Suhrud's opinion in the Indian Express

If Tagore warns Gandhi and through him the nation : "Power in all its forms is irrational", it goes beyond debate. Rest, I am very much supportive of Mr. Tridip Suhrud's comment, "Not in the Mahatma's name" when he criticises any power which is nonrestrictive. In my opinion, Mahatma alone was not capable to bring India freedom, rather there were a lot of causes and effects which yielded India into a free India. Not hesitantly, but boldly I will support and accept that it was non-cooperation movement which cracked spinal of the colonial economy resulting which ROIC of India was decreasing day-after-day and British tax-payers forced their government to quit India, but, Gandhi can not be credited alone for free India.

Now coming to Mr. Hazare and Baba, I would say that we all have full freedom to keep our words before the democratic set up and it is the democracy, but when we enjoy power and are trying government to coerce with our all ideas, we are misutilizing power we enjoy from a few means. Do not forget, any Indian government, at the moment, is elected and represented by people. Any attempt to prove them wrong will be considered disrespect of the Indian citizen. Mr. Anna has, of course, seen world which i have not because of his age and experience, but transparency to a level is good not for all. It was debated when Anna started his fast for Lokpal bill that this may be a trend to blackmail government with the support of public and trend started very well.

We all know M3 in Indian economy is above Rs. 600000 cr. Will it be prudent to demand demonetizing high denomination notes?

Language of education should be the same as the masses of the world have because language is a tool to express ideas, and if our language is not convincing and understandable for others what will be the its end use?

Baba Ramdev: Is he nation's face

When Baba Ramdev says he the face of the nation (Main desh ke mukhota hun), can anyone ask him to explain the sentence. How he can be a self proclaimed nation's face. Nation is not an individual rather it is assimilation of many people and different cast and creed. It is very much unacceptable that he is the face of the nation. India has many saints who are better that him and they are also the part of the nation. Baba should control his language in future so that nation's character will not malign.

Anna Hazare and work

I am very much surprised to hear that the civil society who was part of the drafting committee and self proclaimed Nation's mask are absent from their job on June 06, 2011. It is time to awake on the issue and not to be fooled by these kind of people who make naive and gentle people fool from their emotions and provocation. Can i raise some question to ponder over the fact that these people are least concerned about the taxpayers money rather they are more interested to misuse the taxpayers hard earned penny? They do not take interest in their work rather give them chances to be involved in gossips and ansans i.e. protests against action of the government like political parties and politicians.

Priya Kumar

Lets share Priya Kumar's idea with you:

"The unknown brings adventure, it brings growth, it brings with it the promise of change and progress, it brings a new beginning and en end to the old. I have embraced every opportunity ever since to take that step towards the thrill of not knowing what will happen next. A step forward into the unknown has more power than a stationary existence."

Baba Ramdev and Capital Punishment

So, sisters & brothers, you are ready to watch new high profile drama in Ram Lila Maidan. There is no confusion about Baba's political stand. I am not here to give any judgement whether he is right or wrong rather, i would like to draw some kind attention towards Tax treatment. Why Baba is not asking government to levy tax on the trusts which have huge amount of surpluses? Why Baba is not donating his trust's surplus to our poor government who will deploy the fund for social benefit? In a humanitarian world where we protest capital punishment even for a terrorist, is it legitimate to demand capital punishment for another offender?

The devils advocate is not pleading on behalf of culprit rather he is in favour of rigorous punishment for culprit but not capital punishment. there is an urge to intelligentsia to be a part of anti capital punishment because unless and until we can not give life to another; we have no right to snatch life from others.

It is very much easy to blame others on no fault but can do we punish ourselves when blaming others for no fault.

World of Terror

If we believe the public sentiment over Syed Saleem Shahzad's death, we will not find ourselves in any state of shock. History shows ample evidence, one who has revolted against the power has either been rewarded with national prize by the govt. of the state or been killed by the means of terror. Mr. Syed who has exposed Nevi - Al Qaida links was murdered this time in Pakistan. But, it is a fact that not only in pakistan rather whole world has the same confrontation. Whether you grill the government by all the means available, you can not check corruption unless and until you yourself are not willing to change your wrong attitude in good one.
