Review of Shiva Trilogy by Amish Tripathi: ---------------------------------------------------- Finished reading all three books of Amish Tripathi's Shiva Trilogy. They are simply Outstanding! Truely Amish deserves the comparison with Paulo Cohello. His storytelling skills mixed with his immense knowledge on Indian mythology and Hinduism created nothing but magic. The trilogy is about how an ordinary Tribal lead (Shiva) from Tibet became the God Neelkanth/Mahadev by his Karma. The story revolves around defeating evils but just like a great writer Amish has revealed the suspense in the second part only that actual evil is not the tribal Nagas, but it is the once good "Somras" which was creating disaster in the form of contamination. The first part was excellent in depicting few outstanding characters - Sati - Shiva's love and a woman with highest dignity and courage, Parveteswar - the noble general of Meluha, Ayurvati - the Mewluhan chief doctor, Shiva himsel...

The best and most nostalgic TV series (1988-1993, US) I have ever seen. Kevin, Winnie still make me cry, sad and happy. We really miss this kind of series now a days. Truely evergreen!!!

Just thought of posting it here also in case in future it helps somebody. The result was WL-23 and I was sure that it will convert and so it was. However didn't join the course due to several reasons - placement stats was not clear an was not sure whether ROI was justified. But again it was also true that this was the best opportunity to learn which I had given away. Not sure whether this decsion of not joining will haunt me always. ********************************************************************************* At last My Intv experience!! It is pending for long, so finishing in haste before I go to sleep, please forgive me for the delay. ((btw.. I am an extraordinarily ordinary IT 7+, starting from secondary to GMAT, only good thing is a lot of awards for my EC). Three professors (one lady), Jamshedpur, one fine morning... P.

Still remember in 2003, when India lost to Australia and the hostel was deep down in frustration. After 8 years, the cycle seems to be completed- India won against Srilanka and I came back at SIT as 'Guest of Honour' on 3rd April, 2011!! In between I had 8 years of diverse experience across 4 organizations. It was real honour, things have changed so much, you can not recognize the college boundary, but SHI-UM is still there, now 3rd year hostel! Organizers had done great job considering this was the first reunion. Opening of alumni website by me was also an unique experience which I can never forget.

Finished AOL Part-1 course(25th - 27th March, and follow up on 4th Apr), really a nice experience. The breadthing techniques - Sudarshan Kriya is really very innovative - it really helps in reducing stress, increasing hapiness. Now the Sadhana should be practiced everyday with 100% commitment for desired outcome.
