Remembering Mahatma

Today, being January 30, newspapers and electronic media will remind us about Mahatma Gandhi and his dreams about India. Yes. Destiny created Mahatma from M K Gandhi who lived for 78 years and died premature succumbing to bullet injuries on Friday, January 30, 1948. We couldn't realise his dreams. It's still a work in progress as V Anantha Nageswaran concludes* in his article "Steady, Steady...Go" published in The Economic Times today. *Concluding paragraph of the article "Steady, Steady...Go" by V Anantha Nageswaran, CEA, GoI, published in The Economic Times on January 30, 2026 : "India has done well since the pandemic. It's doing better today. But the world is more unpredictable and more dangerous than before. The next phase of India's growth won't be easy. It will be constructed through patient capital formation, relentless competitiveness, disciplined public finances and a state that learns to think entrepreneurially. In a world of ...

Soul Climate By Inez Baranay

Soul Climate By Inez Baranay I know most of you visit libraries. Please tell me how do you select books for borrowing? I know brief answer is not possible. Ok. Suppose you are at a Mega Books Exhibition. You have a budget of less than 1000 rupees to buy a book. The book you have been carrying in your mind for the last 3 months is just before you, priced within your budget. Which is that book? As age progresses, whatever the WhatsApp University teaches you about living the moment forgetting the past and not worrying about tomorrow, a lingering feeling that time is running out flashes in your mind (read 'my mind'). Then we turn to the realities of life and if you are spiritually inclined, think of one's role in the scheme of things of this billions of years old Universe. On a lucky day one stumbles by accident upon reviews like this giving food for thought for a few days. Read this in The Hindu Open Page and have just ordered a copy of "Soul Climate" by Inez B...

The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind

The Book On My Table The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind By Joseph Murphy Suresh recommended this book. Ordered on Jan 14. Received just now. Good book for knowing more about the human potential. Humanity is the most selfish species in the Universe so far. Every individual, the moment sees the light, starts crying and believes and expects the world around existed to serve her/him. Going back to "Bhoomiyude Avakasigal" the individual forgets that her/his right to the resources available is the same as the earthworm or elephant and it is for the individual to recognise the challenges and meet them to capture the space allowed. This book will help us get out of the maze. More later.

M G Warrier A Quote Of The Day https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/books/features/quote-of-the-day-by-ernest-hemingway-every-mans-life-ends-the-same-way-it-is-only-the-details-of-how-he-/articleshow/126120957.cms The quote One of his most iconic lines is “Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.” Here Hemingway reminds us that death is universal. No matter who we are, rich or poor, famous or unknown, everyone reaches the same final point. What makes one person different from another, he says, are the choices in between: how we love, how we work, how we handle fear, and...

Warrier's Collage on Sunday December 21, 2025

Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On Sunday December 21, 2025 Collage Editorial Collage took a short holiday. When I was listening to Sri Sri Ravishankar speaking at UN on the World Meditation Day [Please see the link below] once again remembered the Art of Living programme I had attended and a question from the Program Moderator in the concluding session : "What way you think people will remember you, when you are out of sight?" My answer : "From whatever impression I'm able to leave in their minds or later, from whatever they come to know of the work I may continue to do" Last week one day Dr D Ajit and I talked for 19 minutes over the phone. We were colleagues in RBI and stayed in the Gokuldham RBI Quarters during late 1980's. Lost contact with him sometime by the end of last Century and we were getting reconnected after a gap of 3 decades. Ajit was occasionally following my FB posts and had a fair idea about my pursuits. Though I am on the FB and...

Flight disruptions & IndiGo's role

Good Morning Copied below is my media response on the flight disruption. After travelling by an IndiGo flight on December 6, 2025, I have been responding in the media in some contexts. Though I have to my credit thousands of published LTTEs(Letters To The Editor) and a collection of 80 plus such letters published in book form, none of my responses on the current flight disruptions was found printable by the editors. Perhaps they want me to write an article on the subject! Read on : The Economic Times December 11, 2025 Chat Room Flight disruptions This refers to the report "Disruptions were Not Deliberate" (December 11). We travelled by Mumbai-bound IndiGo flight from Calicut on Saturday, December 6. Except for a 3 hours delay due to logistics or technical issues, our journey was normal. While waiting in the airport, because the flight was delayed, IndiGo served us refreshments. But from the moment I reserved the air ticket to the time of landing in Mumbai, my r...
