Volunteers for a better Brigade Gardenia #vbi

By
We live in enclave. It is easy to create an isolated world. Become insensitive to issues that bother us and are created because of us.

There are some Neighborhood concerns to share:
  1. Uneducated neighborhood
  2. Disconnected neighborhood
  3. Dying and dirty lakes
The community around has created a lot of support in terms of housemaids, security staff, car cleaners/drivers and more.

There are few local issues to the enclave
  1. Pigeon menace
  2. Dog menace
  3. Ogling eyes 
  4. Public smoking/spitting and release
  5. Flowers/Leaves plucking
  6. speed biking 
  7. foul language from early age
What can we do so that life has an equal distribution?
Here are few ideas 
  1. Educate neighborhood -  value of girl child, prevent kid and female abuse (wife beating)
  2. Reach out - create common cultural programs (your cultural event can be theirs too)
  3. Rejuvenate neighborhood lakes  (poor chunchunghatta lake is a dirty mess)
  4. Create awareness on de-addiction (alcohol/cigarette)
  5. Meet up with local government officials (educate on corruption free workplace)
These solutions are also inline with the driving force of  volunteer for better India movement. 

Disasters always do not happen on streets of delhi. They can happen in and around your neighborhood. 

So time to wake, a little shake off and add an hour in your day to give back to your community. 

Act now to prevent an ugly tomorrow for you and your coming generation. 

You can become a volunteer too. It can be your movement too.

Shivani, Brahmakumaries and Aastha channel

By
She comes twice on TV from 7:10 PM to 7:40 PM and 10:30 to 11:00 PM on Aastha channel. The spiritual channel story in India is on same lines as that of Aaj Tak , which was run by local ads before the big boys put ads on them. Today Shivani, a Brahmakumari mentioned that 99% of the cause of anger and frustration is elsewhere, it is not in the spur of the moment, when you hurt somebody or get hurt by somebody. Instead of reacting instantaneously , or pestering the reaction in the mind post the incident till eternity , can you wonder "Why is that soul so angry, what is bothering her? I am sure there is something more than what she has told me now?". The chain of thoughts that emerge lead you to compassion, releases love vibrations into the air. Love has a very subtle medium to reach out. You cannot yell and throw around love and claim that you are helping somebody by your love. You have to surrender to love and let love take over. You cannot correct the world. You can onl...

Success is exchange of energy

By
The definition of success is very elusive. It means different things in different phases of life to different people. When I was in school and college it was to pass somehow. When I was in 12th it was to get into engineering somehow. When I was in job it was to make more money anyhow. When you were in marriage it was to demand happiness and feel proud in pronouncing to yourself that every act of a frustrating job was for the sake of family and their well being. I was focusing on doing. I was focusing on achievement. So whenever I reflected back in life I always felt less. I could have been an IITian, I could not crack CAT. I could not join an organization during their early stock offer days. I could not go to US and earn in dollars. I simply missed doing too many things.  Now I feel lack of achievement. Now I feel lack of doing. Did I miss out on something while I was undergoing all this doing? Why was I nervous all this while? Why did one achievement led to other? Why...

pay bbmp property tax online 2009-10

By
A neat way to pay property tax online if you have a property in bangalore. As launch offer BBMP is not charging extra on credit card payment. You can go to http://218.248.41.198/ and choose form IV or V depending on whether there has been any change in your property from last year. You will need Application number from assessment year 2008-09. The number on top right corner of pink form. If you are lucky to have saved it to your files. Not the white receipt. You will reach a pre-filled form which either you can print to pay in nearest BBMP center or if you have started to trust online gateways and carry a credit card then choose to pay online. Remember to note down the new application number NOW. You never know when you will need them. Online option will lead you to IDBI gateway and there you need to have your credit card handy, your tax details comes pre-filled. You are done with the payment in your cosy little bed. Time for the receipt. You have still not invested in printer. Okay,...
