Quote* for the day:
"What is meant here by saying that existence precedes essence? It means that first of all, man exists, turns up, appears on the scene, and, only afterwards, defines himself. ... Not only is man what he conceives himself to be, but he is also only what he wills himself to be after this thrust toward existence. Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself."
-Jean Paul Sartre

A Interaction
1). V Babusenan
Wordworth and the Reserve Bank of India:
If Wordsworth's all words are worthy, Galsworthy's all words will be galling. Wordsworth had a direct relation with French Revolution. He, being quite young when the Revolution took place in1789, naturally wrote:
"Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive
And to be young was very heaven!"
One may ask what connection this 18th century poet can have with the Reserve Bank of India? Yes, there is some connection, but a rather remote one.
Santha Rama Rau, a writer of repute of yesteryears, was the only daughter of Benegal Rama Rau, the 4th Governor of the Reserve Bank of India. When she was a small girl, Lady Rama Rau took her to the Westminister Bridge across the Thames in London. Standing there, she taught the girl Wordsworth's famous sonnet on the bridge, beginning with:
"Earth has not anything
to show more fair.
Dull would he be of soul
who could pass by a sight
So touching in its majesty...."
(Collage: Let's read the full poem:
Composed upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802
Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty:
This City now doth, like a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie
Open unto the fields, and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;
Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
The river glideth at his own sweet will:
Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;
And all that mighty heart is lying still!)
2) PKK Nair, Bangalore

Looking forward to hearing from you 🙏-Warrier)
3) K P V Karunakaran, Mumbai
All along we have been talking about banks independent of corporate influences.
Now suddenly why RBI is having a change of heart and inviting
business houses to start banks? Moreover this is against logic and
rationale of Nationalisation of banks.
(Collage View:
Very relevant thoughts. Someone who may know more about the
background of bank nationalisation may respond to your doubt with more clarity.
My understanding is that bank nationalisation was a political decision
which wasn't followed up with policy and regulatory support from GOI and RBI till date.
Excerpt from another friend's mail:
"Rajan and Acharya were eased out of RBI only because they were themselves
growing into POLITICAL BEINGS."
Now accept reality. We have destroyed the image of public sector
using the same tactics vested interests used to disintegrate UTI.
RBI was saved because Rajan listened to sane voices inside RBI while handling
FSLRC Report when he was Governor-Warrier)

Excerpts from the RBI press release:
"The report is placed on the RBI website today for comments of stakeholders
and members of the public. Comments on the report may be submitted by
January 15, 2021 through email. RBI will examine the comments and suggestions
before taking a view in the matter."

Copied below is a Birthday Message posted by
Ramesh Warrier on his FB page recently.
We need to express/record appreciation,
memories and our prayers and blessings when possible.
Thought of sharing Ramesh's Message with you just to
think loudly about this.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANKHITA ... 👨👩👧👦🌼
MANY MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF THE DAY !!!🎁💞
The world is not really full of "Go-Getters". In fact the world also has simple,
reserved & sensitive people, who are artistically inclined.
My Grandfather Capt. A C S Warrier who served Indian Army during World War
II was also known to be a brilliant Artist.
His Watercolor Paintings Were Legendary. My Mother's Eldest Brother
C R Achutha Warrier was a well Known Artist. Many Of the Churches
Across Kerala Sport Large Format Oil Paintings Made By Him.🤩
Ankhita A5 Of The A6 Sisters is That Type. Yes ... Simple, Reserved & Sensitive.
An Amazingly Talented Artist ... She Effortlessly Handles Large As Well As Small
Format Paintings & Art Works. At home With Traditional Art Forms -
She Learned Mural Painting From - Legendary K K Warrier Himself While
She Was At Guruvayoor Spending Summer Holidays With Her Grandmother.
She Also Handles Graphic Art forms Neatly. Currently Doing Her Graduation
From Manipal. Her Interest Is To Specialize in Restoration Of Antique Art Works.😍
I Remember Her As A Small Child Scribbling & Drawing On Walls of Our Home. I
Told Her .. "Ankhita I will Give You A Room. You Can Draw to your Heart's Content
In All The Walls Of the Room" .. Her Face Reflected utter Disbelief ... Yes !!! She Was
Thrilled Beyond Words. When All walls are Used .. I Arranged Some One To Repaint
The Room So That She Can Start The Drawing All Over Again. Growing Listening
To Adventure Stories By Me & My Father. Imagination Came Automatically to her.🥰
Driving Around In Bhabi's Kinetic Pride & Visiting Various Temples Across Kerala.

(By such narrations, in a way, we pass on a portion of the
heritage wisdom to the subsequent generations. Decades later, Ankhitas
will proudly tell someone about Major Harippad A C Sankara Warrier and his
contribution to society -Collage)
