Presently, I am jealous of two persons in our fraternity : Shri Subbaraman and Shri Franklin Misquith, for their good luck that Dame Poesy is at their beck and call. The latter's poem on Senior Citizens Day falling on the 21st is quite enjoyable. Fathers Day, Mothers Day, Teachers Day : Such days are not meant for those concerned to rejoice on the days allotted to them. On the contrary, these days are reminders to society to respect them. These are actually redundant if the society is an ideal one. ***. *** 2) M G Warrier Mumbai Shared a link : https://www.livemint.com/news/ratan-tata-invests-in-sr-citizen-companionship-as-a-service-startup-goodfellows-11660638983187.html “You do not know what it is like to be lonely until you spend time alone wishing for companionship." -Ratan Tata (When someone doesn't pick up your call or you don't get the response you expect, stop expecting.

One of the most significant landmarks of Madras now Chennai Egmore has a history in itself. In those days of 1950s Train Journey was a pleasure and memorable one. We were living in Luz and we used to go to the Egmore Station to go to Madurai where we usually used to spend our Summer Holidays with atleast a dozen of our cousins. We used to take our luggage in Tram, a very relaxed mode of transport. We used carry all our belongings in a 'Hold All' !which was designed in such a way to hold all our dress, bedsheets etc. No Computer bookings in those days and we used to go and get tickets at Egmore directly. We used to be excited since the train journey was relaxed and comfortable. We used to fight for the corner seat to have a glimpse of green fields. The return journey to Madras Egmore was a sort of home coming for us. Egmore RS is 100 years young and we salute Egmore! Egmore and Central are twin children of our Chennai! G Quotes on Srikrishna https://feedingtrends.com/lord-shri-krishna-quotes-mahabharat-lessons-dharma-karma Yada yada hi dharmasya glanirbhavati bharata, Abhythanamadharmasya tadatmanam srijamyaham . Paritranaya sadhunang vinashay cha dushkritam, Dharmasangsthapanarthay sambhabami yuge yuge. The meaning of these two slokas (above quote) is — Whenever there is a decay of righteousness, O Bharata, And there is an exaltation of unrighteousness, then I Myself come forth; For the protection of the good, for the destruction of evil-doers, For the sake of firmly establishing righteousness, I am born from age to age. H Ethics a soldier lives and dies for* Maj Gen Raj Mehta (retd) Please show me the dead bodies of soldiers,’ I had repeated my request to the CO with empathy. As a Rashtriya Rifles sector commander (Brigadier) in troubled South Kashmir, I was at an encounter site in Bijbehara tehsil of Anantnag district. Standing on the outskirts of a notorious hinterland village — a terrorist haunt nestled between bare karewas (hills) connected by radial kutcha/broken tar roads where IEDs could be easily planted — we were reviewing the unit’s night-long anti-terrorist operations. Things hadn’t worked out as planned. We’d neutralised three terrorists but lost three soldiers, their bodies covered under a hastily spread tarpaulin. However, it was the CO’s reluctance in complying with my request that was puzzling. That’s because the CO was capable, steady under fire and led a battle-hardened unit. He knew I hugged dead soldiers before saluting them one last time. Yet, he hesitated. We’d got intelligence that a big terrorist conclave was planned in an abandoned outhouse on the hill overlooking the village. The planning was meticulous, including that for contingencies. The unit, in a recent encounter, had taken out a top terrorist and was on a high. Yet, war-fighting has its own ebb and flow. Visionary Prussian Field Marshal Helmuth von Moltke wrote in 1871 that the finest war plans don’t survive first contact. That frosty morning, his prediction had stood the test of time. Despite our preparations, mistakes were made. It is easy to be judgmental when things go wrong. However, our military ethics teach us otherwise. Naam, Namak, Nishan — honour, integrity, flag — has said all that’s needed to be said for the millennia, and that day on the hilltop it was no different. As the elder in this small group of soldiers, morale had to be instantly restored. I demanded that they repeat the unit’s war cry thrice after me. That did it. My next job was to honour the dead. Finding the CO still inexplicably stricken, I turned to my ‘buddy’ (a soldier who shares symbiotic behaviour with you in that you guard each other’s backs in encounter situations) to do the needful. My buddy was carefully selected; an ever-smiling, tall, wiry, alert, very fit soldier. That morning, his scream on uncovering the dead soldiers haunts me. Among them lay his younger brother. ‘Mujh se bahut accha tha saab,’ he said, controlling his emotions as I hugged him after hugging his brother. The CO knew and had acted with great restraint. I saluted him. As we celebrated Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, I hope people spared a thought for those whose ethics in life, and death, will forever remain Naam, Namak, Nishan. *Received from K Balasubramanian --
