The XIV Dalai Lama
The XIV Dalai Lama can be a case study in facing life's challenges. His is perhaps a miraculous survival story. Don't know what divine powers or spiritual ancestral background or his own will power helped him in travelling through the paths he created for himself bypassing several dead ends. He keeps smiling. He's able to tease bearded celebrities by pulling their beard in public and get away unhurt!
Narayani Ganesh tells us* that Shanti Deva's "A Guide to the Bodhisattva Way of Life" is his favourite book. I have today ordered a copy of the book which has just 100 plus pages. I loved Lama's assertion that "If a problem is fixable, if a situation is such that you can do something about it, then there's no need to worry. If it's not fixable, then there's no help in worrying. There's no benefit in worrying whatsoever.

India-US trade deal*
This refers to the report "White House optimistic about striking a trade deal with India very soon" (The Hindu Business Line, July 2). The White House Press Secretary's confidence and optimism signals to the US approach to trade relationship with India.
It's the new 'blow hot, blow cold' strategy adopted by Trump II that is confusing the outside world. It is apparent that the two countries are clear about the objectives of the current trade negotiations and the constraints of both sides on core policy issues.
Deadlines and threats can bring pressure, but both US and India are aware of mutual dependence in the current scenario. India today is not just a strategic ally for US. Mutual friendship has outgrown commercial transactions.
