Why The Poor Don't Kill Us : Manu Joseph

After the Government of Kerala came back once again with a positive statement on development, the focus has shifted to the poor. The positive outcome of the November 2 claim that Kerala has come out of abject poverty is that the poor are feeling that their status need not be permanent. They have a right to come out of poverty. In this context the question raised by 51 year old Manu who is also from Kerala (and I wish and pray his generation lives to see a Poverty -free world 🙏) becomes relevant : "WHY THE POOR DON'T KILL US" My friend K N Rajan introduced this book in our WhatsApp Group. Ordered a copy of the book from Amazon. https://amzn.in/d/4BEjDf1 Was feeling lazy to put together a response. Unconnected thoughts were making a Tsunami of sorts in the mind after reading the summary of the book* published by Manu who's just days elder to my son Kiran. Proud of his generation. Google searched CSR/M G Warrier. Got enough material to write another article ...

Inspiration : Warrier's Collage on Sunday November 2, 2025

Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On Sunday November 2, 2025 Friends This edition of Collage was not planned. Until 6 45 a m on Thursday when I was reading "Band of Survivors" by John Rosengren (Reader's Digest, July 2024). 15 month old RD was picked up for random reading that day from my accumulation of material kept for future reading. Not necessarily by me! Regards M G Warrier A Cover Story Band of Survivors https://youtu.be/NV7g1f4job0?si=f3WdnRdYiXAqIpbu We have come across several survival stories in the past. In our own life or in the life of one of the near and dear ones, we have seen crossroads which gave way to will power or modern medicine. Here the story talks about someone who walked into his nineties after facing dead ends several times from his childhood. Meanwhile, all through, he kept his passion for music live and is on the stage attracting crowd, dancing, performing and telling his story, as if he is just an eye witness. Saul Dreier, born...

Warrier's Collage on October 22, 2025

Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On Wednesday October 22, 2025 Friends Hope you all have celebrated Diwali 2025 in a befitting manner. Collage wishes a happy and prosperous year ahead 🎈. All indicators are positive. Regards M G Warrier A Cover Story https://www.google.com/search?q=mg+warrier+on+gold+management&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-in&client=safari B Media Response I The Hindu Business Line October 17, 2025 Letters PSB Consolidation* This refers to the letter about "Bank consolidation" (October 17). The concerns expressed are genuine. And naturally this will give ammunition to the permanent lobby waiting to show government initiatives in bad light, for whatever reason. Post-nationalisation, PSB consolidation should have been given top priority, for the same reasons adduced in the letter. But for various reasons, it got delayed and only now GOI is coming out with a rational reorganization plan. Earlier initiatives were half-hear...

Warrier's Collage on Sunday October 12, 2025

Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On Sunday October 12, 2025 This is part of my efforts to restore weekly edition of Collage in a shorter format. Regards M G Warrier A Collage Books The Difficulty of Being Good By Gurucharan Das https://amzn.in/d/aMklWzR Amazon Introduction Why should we be good? How should we be good? And how might we more deeply understand the moral and ethical failings--splashed across today's headlines--that have not only destroyed individual lives but caused widespread calamity as well, bringing communities, nations, and indeed the global economy to the brink of collapse? In The Difficulty of Being Good, Gurcharan Das seeks answers to these questions in an unlikely source: the 2,000 year-old Sanskrit epic, Mahabharata. A sprawling, witty, ironic, and delightful poem, the Mahabharata is obsessed with the elusive notion of dharma--in essence, doing the right thing. When a hero does something wrong in a Greek epic, he wastes little time on self-ref...
