Last time when I saw the god named Sachin Tendulkar






                I was at VCA cricket stadium in Nagpur. It was a second match which I watched on the VCA cricket stadium at Jamtha. First international match was between India and Sri Lanka and it was a worst match to watch as India lost this match. Only sixer that any of the Indian players hit came from Ashish Nehra. 
             So you can guess what kind of feeling it gives when you go for watching T20 match and end up watching only sixer of the match that too by the bowler. So like millions of Indians I was upset and eager to watch another cricket match. Lottery of the life came in the news that there would be a test match in the Nagpur and Sachin is going to bat at Jamtha.
    
           

          Finally the day came and we found ourselves in the area of Vidharbh cricket association ground. It was six am in the morning when we entered ground and we got the tickets  after three hours of hardwork.




   
            Dhoni elected to field first. So it was nice chance to watch Indian players. When pacers were bowling, Sachin was fielding at mid-on so we were unable to view him closely. After some time Dhoni introduced spin. To our surprise we saw Sachin coming on the boundary line. There was no limit for our joy. We danced like  small boys.
             The concentration of Sachin was fully on the batsman. However, whenever ball was bowled he used to come closer to the boundary and used to please crowd. This was the time when his greatness was seen by us. He knew that people do come here only to watch him. He is their hero and he has to respond. So without any attitude he was taking crowd's wishes and was wawing his hand in the response. 
              Someone from the crowd was shouting "Long live Bharatratna Sachin". He heard it but his humble behavior showed that he was not overheated by it. There has been a lot talked about Sachin Tendulkar. Now he is retiring after a series with West Indies. From the Last 20 years he has entertained India. 
              Sachin's contribution to Indian cricket is immense. For nearly 20 years youngsters targeted only 10 Indian seats as they knew that 11th seat was reserved for god. For the most part of twenty years he was only dependable soul of Indian cricket. 
              When the name Sachin comes in our mind we remember Sharajah series when he just outplayed mighty Australians. The fear which Shane Warne showed was real and unavoidable. We also remember the previous day press conference when Andy Caddick said that Sachin performs only against the weaker countries. I bet Caddick will never forget the next day pull shot six to his ball. And who will forget that 200 run great inning with South-Africa. At that time all the main bowlers of Africa were present in the match and Sachin just showed them different parts of the ground. 
             Whenever he will retire, lot of people will cry. The love of Indian people with Sachin will never going to vanish. He has given them courage when their heart was weakest. They will going to give him courage when his heart will be weakest.

The curious case of loksabha elections of 2014

        The election campaign of major political parties across India is in the full swing. Like always happens the issue of development has been forgotten. The usual typical Indian politics of religion ,cast and minority related permutations and combinations has been started. Right wing politician tried to give religious color to politics by starting various Yatras. However, on being unsuccessful, they tried to turn to their favorite subject that is religion. The effort to turn small issues into major riot was successful in the Uttar-Pradesh. The issue has given enough air to fire between Jats and Muslims of UP.
       On the major platform of politics Rahul Gandhi the next PM in waiting  for congress has failed to influence both that is politics of religion and that of development. On the other hand Narendra Modi the PM candidate of theBJP is looking nice. He has highjacked the late Congress giant Sardar Patel's legacy for his own business. The statue of unity politics is taking Modi far ahead of his counterparts in New Delhi. He is not only playing the development card well but also concentrating on every issue related to religion polarization. The recent serial blast  in his own rally has given him chance to make concrete of Hindu votes across Bihar. Modi has become unchallenged autocrat who can go to any height for winning PM's post.
       On the other hand Congress is surely feeling the Narendra Modi's heat. They are doubtful over their series of pre-elections creams such as food security, land reforms and other virtual subsidies such as MGNREGA. There is no doubt that Congress MP's have lot of money for funding this election as compared to the BJP. This is mainly because of the continuous rule for 10 years. However, still one section of Congress is fearing a landslide loss in the Loksabha election. This is mainly because of strong media campaign of BJP.
          Another section of the Congress is working hard to bring Priyanka Gandhi on the main stage. However, central leadership of the Congress is cautious dealing with Priyanka Gandhi. They don't want opposition to take advantage of war which does not exist. So even to promote Rahul's campaign congress is not taking free help of Priyanka Gandhi. It will be interesting to see what will be the mood of the nation after the elections going to take place in five states. The local election of theDelhi will be election of prestige for all parties. As religion does not hold main issue in Delhi so major political parties will be pouring a lot money in Delhi. The grip over the Delhi helps every party to distribute resources across the nation. The picture will be more clear after five states election. Until then we can enjoy the drama and cunning politics. However, nation will have to remain cautious as many of these parties will try to break communal harmony. So with little bit of precautions we can enjoy the process to select the most powerful man of India.

Why does U.S.A need to take India seriously

             During the time of India-USA nuclear deal we saw Manmohan Singh to be the one of the most courageous persons of all time. I think the event was historic as it happened for the first time when PM has put his own party in a possible danger for the sake of the deal. At that time, PM's decision was criticized by every party . The situation became critical when members of his own party including party president Sonia Gandhi went against him. However, PM stood for the cause and for his own imagination to go forward with nuclear deal. 

            Now, three years have been passed, but the deal's promises have not been fulfilled from American side. If we look at our friendship with Russia then we can see that Russians do take less time compared to Americans. Though the projects of nuclear energy production were delayed in Kudankulam but Russia showed patience and delivered nuclear power plant. Russia completed this in minimum possible time as promise to Indian bureaucrats.


              Another concern with America is that their continuous wastage of taxpayer's money on Pakistan. It seems good as they invest billions dollars in Afghanistan, Iraq and some other middle east countries for the sake of fighting against terrorism. However, India can't understand as why US spends so much money on Pakistan specially after the death of Osama Bin Laden? Why do Americans turn a blind eye on the fact that Pakistan uses same money against India?
          

              India is the biggest customer of American soft power. In other words India is the only country which promotes American soft power. This is because India has highest number of FDI investment of America than any other countries. The culture of malls, music, movies and capitalism is directly inherited from American side. We have seen that Indian economy is recognizably impacted by American Federal Reserve bank. 

           Last time when Federal Reserve president Bernake decided to reduce bond purchasing, the Indian economy virtually collapsed. Rupee went its lowest value of 70 rupees a dollar from 60 rupees of its earlier value. However, when American bank decided to delay the reduction in bond purchasing, Indian rupee became slightly stronger with 60 rupee a dollar. So all this factors show that India has made itself complying with America. 

           Many a times India has sacrificed its national interests only to continue friendship with America. However, expect from some high intensity word of affection nothing has come to India's side. 


           A permanent seat in security council is India's long dream. If America will decide then it will not be hard for them to include India in security council. Looking at the changing scenarios in world politics, it becomes important for world to give India a veto power. This is because world knows that Indian credibility stays in the fact that India is the only country which will be the ambassador to world peace.

The last inspirational story

              The story which I am going to tell has given inspiration to many people. You might have heard about KAIZEN theory of Robin Sharma.  In his book 'The Monk who sold his Ferrari', he taught about  habit forming way. At the same time you might have heard about fear of success theory given by Paulo Coelho. However, the story which I am going to tell  is the one of the most awesome and amazing stories.
                  Robin sharma in his book mainly taught about rule of 21, in which he explains that any habit can be form if we do that thing continuously for 21 days. The great man Coelho taught about how fear of success is the only difference between a ordinary and extraordinary man. There is no doubt that these two theories have inspired  generations. However, there is problem with these two theories and that is after a small interval of time we just forget them. But my story will be unforgettable in whole life.
                  Once upon a time, there was a team of  men from circus who were searching for a baby elephant, so that he could be brought for performing various acts. After long search and hunt  they captured a two year old elephant. The very same day they brought him in their circus. He was then tied by Iron chain in a small portion. 
                   On the very first day elephant tried hard to escape from the the chain. He used all the force which he could gather from small but powerful legs. Throughout the day he tried to escape but the chain was so strong that it was impossible to break it. On the second day he repeated all his efforts and tried even harder to break it but again he was unable to do it. Similar thing happened on third and fourth day. As the week progressed his power increased but still he was not able to break it. After trying the same schedule continuously for a month he finally gave up.
                    After a year or so elephant became master in all the circus entertainment shows. He became grown up and performed various jobs such as  pushing the car and lifting the wooden planks. His power was so strong that he could even pull a line of three trucks. However, whenever he was tied to that chain,  which became small compared to his size, he never tried to escape. There was self assumption in his mind that he can't break it similar to his previous attempts. So even if he could break that chain with a simple pull, he never tried it.
                     Human nature is same as that of elephant it never tries to break away from the shackles of assumptions. A person never tries to break assumptions based on childhood or past incidences. Though he becomes strong to face new challenges and is capable of turning fortunes, he never tries to step forward in a bold way. His past always hunts him, the fear of failure based on previous incidences never empower him to accept the fact even if he have become strong to face them.
                      However, there were men in world who stood for their vision irrespective of their past. After loosing every small election, Linkon finally became the president of U.S.A. After trying ten hard years of continuous work, Alexander Fleming  finally discovered Penicillin  When question was ahead as how to kill Hitler so that Germany could be rescued, Hitler's own commander Staffenberg was sure that he can do it. He did not think of his loyalty to Hitler as he was doing it for his motherland. Unfortunately mission Valkyrie  to kill Hitler failed but till date Staffenberg is in the list of world's brave souls
                     13 publishers rejected the Harry Potter work of J.K Rolling but she did not allowed her 13 failure attempts to haunt her future. It's just a question of how we allow the influence of negative people in our own life. People will criticize as some of them are born to criticize. People will laugh at you for your mistakes since they are jealous of your work. Let the influence of these non-performing minds should not overpower the creativity of your mind. Let's be bold and face challenges which life puts ahead. That's is the onlyt way how we evolve.

Why do people born in nineties are special

              When we were born lot of  things were happening around us. First one was the closing of cold war which had put immense amount of pressure around the globe. The event was just like global freedom which came after long time and gave the world a space to breathe. During early nineties the Silicon Valley was in a great form and hardware revolution achieved its pick during this time.

Why the book Atlas Shrugged changed millions of minds

              Novel is a war between Dagny and some force or man who takes away her every resource. Some power which is hidden and is taking away every talented man who was wanted by Dagny to run a railroad which is a pulse of U.S.A. Slowly every talented man starts vanishing. Someone in order to suffocate America and its talent starts taking away people. Question arises who is that man? Who is taking away talent from America?

                       Who is John Galt?

            Miss Ayn Rand had already revolutionized whole world with her first book named as 'The Fountainhead'. In this book she mainly concentrated on explaining that only individualism is important. However, in her second book she explained that society also plays an important role in the life of an individual.
            This is the story of railroad enterprise and wrong policy of irrational people which caused brave and talented people to loose their moral value and self respect. Story starts with Dagny Taggart a woman  who is trapped in the middle of bad men and their policy of parasitical adventure which wants any work done even at the cost of self value. 

            Since Dagny always wants everything to be done in a rational way, She fights for the values against executive body of U.S.A in which her own brother is her enemy. Dagny always believes that working for wrong people is not a bad thing. It is the only chance through which we can bring the necessary changes in our people. Meanwhile story becomes a cause of a suspense since an unknown man starts taking away talented and skilled people throughout America on some secret destination.

            While there are others in the story who believe that we must stop working for people who can't understand creative power of an individual and does not respect his skills and use his skills only for self profit.
            Hank Reardent is such a guy and he is Dagny's friend who believes that working for wrong people or people who are not rational is a crime against humanity. We should not give our hard earned self respect for the sake of looters who feed themselves only on the  skilled people. There is Francisco D'anconio who is also an industrialist and he himself starts destroying his empire of industries since he also believes that giving our talent and skills to people who can't understand rational approach is a highest crime. Working for looters, moochers or parasite is a crime against ethics and morality.

             People always tell us that helping others without asking for favor is a good thing. People always tell us doing a work of social service without asking anything for self can lead us to a life of greatness. People even tell us that helping a poor and giving them money is a great thing. If you too think so then you have to change your thinking. The big question will be why? Ayn Rand has explained it in her breath taking novel of all time. Welcome to read one of the greatest novels of the century which changed the life of millions.
              Novel is a masterpiece by Ayn rand which has established itself in the leading list of top 30 novels of the century. One not only learns but believes that asking for the payment of our work is the most important thing to do. Why working for wrong people is a highest crime? Why our self creativity is our asset and why we should not sacrifice it for others? 

             While reading this we totally established ourselves towards Dagny Taggard's side who believes having philanthropic and altruistic work is great but as novel progresses and mystery of that unknown man who is taking away talent unfolds, our side changes. The main character of that unknown man is introduced very late in the novel so mystery and enthusiasm starts picking up as we unfold every page. Join the journey to know Who was John Galt and why he fought for saving rationality.

Otto Skorzeny and his brave mission to rescue Benito Mussolini

                                
                      When we thought about brave military missions, happened on the back of the world, which required tremendous planning and brave hearts with soul of a lion, our eyes fixes on three incidences. First of course is 9/11 this is because of sudden and unexpected blow to great Americans and superb planning by Al Qaida to pinch New York in its heart.  Second mission is about the brave military planning done to assassinate Hitler by colonel Staffenberg in a mission Valkarie. 

          Staffenberg is considered as a most fearless man in the history of war. Third story is different from both of these two because it had a great deal of danger than that of mission in which Osama Bin laden was captured. This story is about world war second’s most dangerous planner and executioner colonel Otto Skorzeny and his world famous mission to rescue Benito Mussolini.

          ‘Europes most dangerous man’ as been said in post war trial by judges, Skorzeny was born in Austria. The effects of World War 1 caused his family severely poor condition. In his young days he joined German military as an engineer. His special skills to design trunks which would pass oil tankers  to the ship earned him higher rank in military. During war in Poland he used tactic of wearing opposite force’s uniform and suddenly ransacking them.  These special skills forced him to answer Hitler’s call when these leaders order him to join a special secret mission to rescue Benito Mussolini of Italy. Mussoliny so called as duke was Hitler’s only ally. He was overthrown by local government.

           First challenge by Otto skorzeny was to find where Mussoilini is placed. Italian government just tracked the codes of Nazis so they knew that something fishy and Hitler will certainly try to rescue Mussolini. They brought him to Ponzo one of the secret I-land. Skorzeny who was on his search came to know about his location but before he could act Skorzeny was shifted to some other place. After hunting for his location for over two months they finally got information about Skorzeny. There is an interesting story as how skorzeny got his info.

            Skorzeny  revealed that in a bar they saw a girl who was upset on inquiring she told him about his boyfriend who duty was canceled. She told them about Grann Saso, a place which was 6600 meters high. So skorzeny and his men started searching for the place. In a role of environmentalist they started looking for clue and best way was to start conversation. Once Skorzeny obtained to have conversation with a guy who was soldier placed at a base. After talking about few minutes skorzeny said ” I have heard that benito is been shifted in a rome”. The soldier in a hurry of showing that he has real info, “No he is not there Last night we brought him here.”

            The next task was to rescue Mussolini and it was indeed difficult as Mussolini was Placed in hotel well above 6600 meters from the ground. After researching on different options, Skorzeny decided to use Parachutes. So on 12 September 1943 they left to Grann saso with the help of Gliders. However their mission was halted when their gliders were attack by airplanes of opposite force. Only two gliders were remaining and the thing which considered as a grass was actually a steep slope which they forgot to mark. Despite these difficulties they landed on the the hotel. Skorzeny was badly injured. 

            However, with the help of remaining teammates he fought bravely and rescued Mussoliny. "Furrer has send me to take you", said the skorzeny to Mussolini. Mussolini hugged him and then they both went to Hitlars place with the aircraft which can accommodate only two person, however, brave Skorzeny ensured Mussolini that nothing will happen. When they meet Hitler he said “You have just made the history”. In a later mission Otto Skorzeny was awarded with Iron cross, a highest military medal in Germany. The rescue mission is considered as most daring in the history of world war.
