An End, A Beginning...

"What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from." - T. S. Eliot

The elements that had given shape to my life and to which I had committed my all seem insignificant now. Everything around appears so fragile including relationships. Things change, people leave. With the passage of time everything that made sense in the past seem derisory in their present form. Life's contrariness beguiles me.

As I attempt to make sense in repose, the only thing that strikes me is that there is something wrong with reality. Is this an irreversible phenomenon? 

Today, I have reached a point where I question everything. I seek answers and I seek them aggressively. Eventually, life has to make sense. Things have to fall in place. That's what I am told..!! I definitely cannot reach the end of my existential rope in this note without knowing the calling of my life. But, to do so, the only recourse I feel is to make an end to spur a new beginning where I explore the limits of my former self and worldview as an observer, a learner and step into a whole new world order that will connect the dots.

An End, A Beginning...

A Legend Lost. A Legacy Forever.

 On October 9, 2024, India lost one of its most cherished industrialists and humanitarians, Ratan Tata. His last words on social media, " Thank you for thinking of me. " were quintessentially Tata—humble, understated, and full of grace. These parting words have reverberated across the nation, encapsulating the quiet dignity with which he lived and led. In an age where public figures often tower through grand gestures, Ratan Tata’s approach was markedly different. His power was wielded not through public spectacle, but through quiet action, compassionate leadership, and a relentless commitment to integrity. From his role in expanding the Tata Group into a global conglomerate to his advocacy for animal welfare and support for start-ups, Tata's legacy is one of kindness interwoven with visionary business strategy. What set Ratan Tata apart was not just the scope of his achievements, but the human touch he brought to them. Even as he orchestrated some of India’s most signifi...

Embracing the Flow of Life

In our fast-paced world, we often try to control the outcomes of every situation. We want things to happen a certain way, on our terms, and according to our timelines. However, there’s a simple yet powerful philosophy that can help us navigate the unpredictability of life with more ease: "If it comes, let it come. If it stays, let it stay. If it goes, let it go." This mantra encourages us to let go of resistance and embrace the natural flow of events. By adopting this mindset, we learn to welcome opportunities without fear, accept stability without clinging to it, and release what no longer serves us without regret. It’s about living in harmony with the inevitable changes life brings, instead of fighting against them. 1. If it comes, let it come. Life often surprises us with new possibilities—whether in the form of relationships, opportunities, or challenges. By letting things come naturally, without forcing or fearing them, we open ourselves up to new experiences and growth....

Revant Himatsingka: The Man Who Took on Big MNCs to Expose the Truth Behind Packaged Foods

 Revant Himatsingka is a name that sends shivers down the spines of many multinational corporations (MNCs). Known for his relentless mission to expose misleading marketing practices, Himatsingka has become a hero for health-conscious consumers in India. But what makes his story so compelling? Why did he risk a lucrative career in consulting for a cause that seemed destined to attract powerful enemies? A Childhood Built on Misinformation Revant's story begins with his childhood, where the products he grew up trusting were actually setting him up for poor health. Iconic brands like Bournvita , Maggi , Chocos , and Tang were staples in his diet, marketed as healthy, nutritious choices for children. The promises on their packaging – of vitamins, energy, and a better future – were part of a carefully crafted narrative that Revant, like millions of others, believed. However, as he grew older, the truth started to unravel. The Tipping Point: Fake Health Claims It was the constant false h...
