How to be Happy All the Time.

For the past few years, I have been exploring Spirituality and Self Development. I realized that it has had a tremendous effect on my life and it has changed for the better. I wanted to share this information with my parents, friends, and relatives in India but all the material I studied was in English and I couldn't find similar material in Marathi, my mother tongue. A few days ago I realized if I know both the languages then why not do it myself and I did :) I started a Youtube channel that explains various concepts in very easy manner in Marathi with practical examples. This morning I realized I should create a blog in English as well so the message reaches a wider audience. This blog will be the English version of my Marathi videos on Youtube. Our topic for today is How to be Happy All the Time. We can do a lot of things to be happy but today we are going to look at just the 2 of them. The first is to look at our life as a continuous journey and not a race . In a ra

A special birthday wish from my 85 year old friend

A special birthday wish from my 85 year old friend…. Padmakar Joshi has been living alone at Pen (My Hometown) for almost 10 years after sad demise of his wife… I used to go to his house, talk to him and sing for him. Its been almost 2 years that I am not able to visit him frequently and this year I even forgot to wish him on his birthday, which I always used to do with a Greeting card and a new song. Yesterday evening I got a call from an unknown number and I teared up to hear his voice. And then almost cried when he said “I m sorry that I could not call you in the morning as I was in hospital”. I told him how nice it felt to hear from him and could visualize him smiling. It really made my day and once again made me to thank GOD for blessing me with such beautiful people around..

All Stir Fry Review

After insisting so much, finally my friends agreed to take risk and decided to throw party at one of my favorite restaurants in Pune, All Stir Fry at E-Square. I Guess one of the reasons is, they know that being born foodie and raised in family where women have excellent culinary skills, I am extremely finicky about what I eat and experiment a lot with my food (which generally people don’t like/want to do and most of them go with tried and tested menu. How boring!!!). I have been to All Stir Fry quite a few times and always loved the food. As my friends were new to the place I decided not to experiment and go with whatever I had earlier and liked. Vegetarians had no chance but to experiment as I never ate veg at All Stir Fry (BTW, the fact is I seldom eat veg rather refrain from eating veg while dining out :) ). This is one of the very few places in Pune where you get authentic oriental food unlike other restaurants where all soups taste like Manchow soup. Now lemme tell you ab

My Trip to Ajanta-Ellora

I always wanted to go to Ajanta-Ellora caves and Last weekend I finally visited the place... it was a 3 day trip to Ajanta, Ellora, Bibi ka makbara, Daulatabaad fort and Panchakki... First day was entirely spent at Ellora caves , there are 34 caves. As you move along the caves you realise that they start with influence of Buddhism then Hinduism and Jainism. Cave 16 and 32 are must visit and these caves still have remains of the wall paintings which are as old as more than 1500 years. Second day was at Ajanta caves (about 2.5 hrs drive from A’bad city). These are 29 caves arranged in inverted U shape around a point called View Point. As soon as you enter the first cave you drop your jaws looking at paintings on the wall and ceiling. It really made me wonder how many efforts it must have taken for those Buddhist monks to create such master pieces with rudimentary tools used then. After seeing Ajanta-Ellora I don’t find it worth mentioning about Bibi ka Makbara nad Panchakki (both
