For the last time ...

The best things in life are free
But you can give them to the birds and bees

I want your money


(That's what I want) x 7

Your love gives me such a thrill
But your love won't pay my bills
I want your money

(That's what I want)

Money don't get everything it's true
But what I don't get- I can't use
I want money

(That's what I want)

I want money
I want lots of money
In fact I want so much money
Give me your money
Just give me money

- Money (That's what I want) by The Flying Lizards [Link]

FM radio setup in $1

Today on the BBC:

'World's cheapest radio'

Raghav Mahato, a poor radio mechanic, set up his DIY radio station in the village of Mansoorpur in Vaishali district in 2003.

The station proved a big hit with locals - licence or no licence.

"Women listen to my station more than men," Raghav told the BBC. "Though Bollywood and local Bhojpuri songs are the staple diet, I air devotional songs at dawn and dusk for women and old people."

The transmission equipment - which at a cost of just over $1 made the station possibly the cheapest in the world - was fitted on to an antenna attached to a bamboo pole on a neighbouring three-storey hospital.

Read the whole story. [Link]

But alas this popular radio has fallen prey to local authorities and some outdated laws!

The original story on BBC from last Feb. [Link]

Good Breath, Bad Breath

Sorry to throw you off track with the title! No, I am not talking about breath odour here.

My story today is sparked off by the sad demise of Adwaitya (the only one) a few days back. Adwaitya was a tortoise in a zoo in Calcutta, and the oldest member of the zoo, who is believed to have been anywhere between 150-250 years when he died. He's been witness to major part of the history of modern India! It is believed that this Aldabra tortoise was a pet of General Robert Clive of the East India Company sometime in the 18th century. I share the sadness too because I have met this grand old tortoise when I visited this zoo almost 10 years back! [Link]

So, what about my breath? Everything!
So how can an animal survive for so long? If you have been noticing around you, you'd see that animals with a slow breath rate such as pythons, elephants, and tortoises have long life spans. Whereas, those with a fast breathing rate- such as birds, dogs, and rabbits, live for only a few years. There are some insects that live only for 3 days! Man! Some people know how to burn themselves out fast!

Yogabound.com [Link], explains this for us-
... they realized the importance of slow breathing for increasing the human lifespan. Those who breathe in short, quick gasps are likely to have a shorter life span than those who breathe slowly, and deeply.

Rhythmic, deep, and slow respiration sublimates, and is stimulated by calm, content, states of mind. Irregular breathing disrupts the rhythms of the brain, and leads to physical, emotional, and mental blocks. These in turn, lead to inner conflicts, imbalances, personality disorders, destructive lifestyles, and disease. Pranayama establishes regular breathing patterns, breaking this negative cycle, and reversing the process.

So, you'd notice that it is important to know what a good breath cycle is. How to breathe and why? One expert quotes from the vedic scriptures to point out that a human life cycle is not counted by the years we live, but by the number of breaths we take. [Link]
It is said that a healthy human life is comprised of 946,080,000 breaths, the equivalency of 120 years. Through concentration on controlling the breath rate and prescribed nasal breathing, one can live to their full potential.

Physical and emotional imbalances can be corrected by consciously altering the breathing pattern of the nostrils, by purposely closing off one nostril and breathing through the other. In yoga, alternate nostril breathing is a common technique for centering and finding inner peace.

Surya Namaskara- Sun Salutation

I played a composition called 'Surya Namaskar' last night from the album Naman 2. Here's how it goes:
ADITYASYA NAMASKARAM YE KURVANTI DINE DINE
JANMANTAR SAHASTRESU DARIDRYAM NOPAJAYATE

OM MITRAYA NAMAH
OM RAVAYE NAMAH
OM SURYAY NAMAH

(Repeat first couplet here)

OM BHANAVE NAMAH
OM KHAGAYE NAMAH
OM PUSHNE NAMAH

(Repeat first couplet here)

OM HIRANYA GARBHAYE NAMAH
OM MARICHAYE NAMAH
OM AADITYAAYA NAMAH

(Repeat first couplet here)

OM SAVITRE NAMAH
OM ARKAYA NAMAH
OM BHASKARAYA NAMAH

(Repeat first couplet here)

The 12 chantings dedicated to the Sun in the above composition are meant for each of the 12 postures during the Surya Namaskar yoga routine.

The first two lines sum up the benefits of this yoga routine-
He who performs Surya Namaskara daily does not get poor in thousand births. (And poor does not refer to wealth!)

Surya Namaskara means prayer (Vandana) of Lord Surya (Sun God). Surya Vandana is short. Surya Namaskara is an ancient system of Indian exercise. Stand facing the east at dawn and peacefully chant the mantras to pray to Lord Surya and offer red sandals, flowers, rice grains (Akshatas) with water or simply the water alone as ARGHE (libation) and perform Surya Namaskara. This whole process is performed before the sunrise.

The Mantra that goes with this prayer is:
DHYEYAH SADA SAVITRI MANDALA MADHYAVARTI
NARAYANAH SARSIJA SANA SANNI VISHTHAH !
KEYURVAN MAKAR KUNDALA VAAN KIRITI,
HARI HIRANYA MAYA VAPUR DHRIT SHANKHA CHAKRAH |

Why donate?

What on Earth brings you maximum happiness? Sharing... Right?

There is so much suffering, so many negativities in this world. And then there are these few of us who have so much in our lives. Don't we? If we can share a little; a pinch of our resources for a good cause- it does not hurt at all. In fact, it brings so much joy!

Think of it like this:
You are walking down the street with a packet of bread for your dinner. You'd also have some salad, some pasta and a drink to go with it tonight. Suddenly you see a hungry old man at the corner of the street. Wouldn't you just break a
piece of your bread and give it to the old man? You won't go hungry tonight- but how pleased would you be in your heart to think that at least tonight the poor man won't go to bed with a hungry stomach? That's the joy to live for!
So, pick up a few good social efforts in your vicinity and support them!

Giving back to the community for a good cause is one such thing. KEOS 89.1 FM [Link] is an all volunteer community radio station that works selflessly to provide the community with entertainment, knowledge, wisdom and truth. That's a great cause to support! Isn't it?

It's our Spring Fund Drive!
KEOS depends on support from listeners like you to continue providing the radio programming that you've made a part of your life. Every dollar that you give goes directly to work for you and all KEOS listeners! We have a secure site, so that you can make your donation with confidence. Here's the [Link]. If you don't feel comfortable pledging on-line, please print out your pledge to mail in.

Be the change you want to see in the world! - Mahatma Gandhi

Voices you might like to hear more often

Aparisim Ghosh, chief international correspondent for Time magazine. Read Time's story "One Morning in Haditha" [Link]

Pratap Chatterjee, managing director of Corpwatch [Link]. He is the author of a new piece on the Dubai ports titled "Ports of Profit: Dubai Does Brisk War Business" exploring how the U.S. depends on UAE in it war efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Arundhati Roy, acclaimed Indian author and activist. She is author of several books including, "The Ordinary Person’s Guide to Empire," "The Checkbook and the Cruise Missile" and her Booker prize-winning novel, "The God of Small Things." Her latest article, published on The Nation website [Link] is titled "Bush in India: Just Not Welcome."

Arun Gupta, investigative journalist who writes frequently for Z Magazine, Left Turn and the Indypendent newspaper in New York. He is an editor at the Indypendent [Link] and a former editor at the Guardian weekly in New York.

Rahul Mahajan, editor of the website EmpireNotes.org [Link] and author of the books "The New Crusade: America's War on Terrorism" and "Full Spectrum Dominance: U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond."

Techculture overshadowing Agriculture?

A banner in a village in Maharashtra- India reads:
"This village is ready to be auctioned. Permit us to commit mass suicides."

While every Indian is proud of the continuing economic rise of India- let's not make the same mistakes that some of the 'developed' nations have made in the past few decades. We do need an economically strong India- but not at the cost of self-sufficiency. India has always been and should be a strong agro-based economy, and that's the secret of our strength. If we can feed our billion natives without borrowing a morsel- we can call ourselves a super power one day (though that's not the goal). Nuclear weapons, information technology, and industrial technology alone cannot do the wonders.

As millions and millions of acres of farming land are being sold off to developers and builders, we are slowly but steadily losing the soil beneath our feet. The farmers are helpless because if the economic policies of the nation continue to ignore them- they are left with no choice but to give up the profession of their ancestors. Why can't our brilliant minds come up with solutions to create Tatas and Birlas behind the wheels of our tractors?

Several decades ago, Mahatma Gandhi said- "Independence must begin at the bottom." He envisioned a strong India built on the foundation of strong villages powered by self-governance, and self-sufficiency in every regard.

Read more on the plight of our villages today... 'The end of Gandhi's dream: India's economic boom and bust' [Link]

Have we forgotten those beautiful words?
  • "mere desh kee dharatee, sonaa ugale, ugale hire motee"
India is probably the only nation in the world that has fed generations after generations through farming. But our ancestors have not just been taking from our lands, but giving back too. No wonder Mother Nature has blessed our lands with an evergreen fertility- let's stay true to it forever and treat it with due reverance. Read more ... [Link]

Gandhi's Dandi March still inspires

On Sunday March 12, 2006, a group of anti-war protesters set off on what will be a 241-mile march for peace across the Mexico-US border and through California. At 6:30 Sunday morning the marchers set off from Tijuana Mexico. They crossed the Mexico-US border later that day, and plan to end the march with a rally in the California city of La Paz.

Key organizer Pablo Paredes, an Iraq war resister was a Navy petty officer who refused orders to board a ship in 2004 heading to Iraq. He draws inspiration from Mahatma Gandhi's 241 mile Dandi march and non-violent struggle to generate public support. [Link]

You can extend your support here: www.swiftsmartveterans.com

Quote from the website:
Despite embarking on a very bloody and costly war with no just cause; President Bush insists on disrespecting Mohandas K. Gandhi memory by visiting his grave to lay down a memorial wreath. Fortunately, many in America do understand Gandhi's teaching of peace and non-violence. On March 12, 2006 3 young latino conscientious objectors and 1 parent of a fallen latino will lead a march for peace inspired by Gandhi's 241 mile salt march. The march will coincide with the anniversary of the war in Iraq, the anniversary of Gandhi's salt march and will end just as congress reviews key war related legislation. High profile activists such as Cindy Sheehan and Dolores Huerta will also support and participate in this effort.

Dekho Holi Aayi!

Ayi Holi ayi, sab rang layi,

Bin tere Holi bhi na bhaye;

Bhar pichkari, sakhiyo

Bhigi more sari hai hai ....


Celebrate the arrival of spring by splashing colors on one another today!

Holi is the Hindu festival that welcomes the Spring and celebrates the new life and energy of the season. Although Holi has religious roots, not much religious activity is involved in its celebration.

Holi is the most energetic Indian festival, filled with fun and good humour; even the strict rules of separation between castes are abandoned.

Holi is also called 'The Festival of Colours', and people celebrate the festival by smearing each other with paint, and throwing coloured powder and dye around in an atmosphere of great good humour.

Holi is seen by some as the Hindu festival that is nearest in spirit to St. Valentine's Day.

Join me tomorrow on FM 89.1 for a fun filled evening with Holi songs.

Fogs of war

Religion and politics have always got entangled with each other and lead mankind down a precipice. What we see happening with our world today is familiar- things that have collluded between kings and bishops for generations. Religion is being abused for just one thing and one thing alone- power. And power is nothing but a fog that clouds clear thinking and vision.

Think people think! Let's think and do what we do! We have that amazing talent- why not make use of it? We need to think for ourselves ... if we allow the mullahs, rabbis, bishops or Rupert Murdoch to think for us- we are perpetually doomed. Slavery did not end all over the world, it just took a new form. We thought we were free but that was just our imagination.

Thomas Paine once said- "My country is my world, and my religion is to do good!"[Link]

Media has become the nastiest WMD of this generation! Everyone with an ambition for money and power vies for some of the lime-light. Over and over again they sugar-coat the messages to tell us which soap is right for our skin, what vehicle is right for us, what medicines are good for my heart, and who in the world is evil.

Believe it or not, majority of what we hear on the media channels today is not what it really is- but what they want us to believe it is. And they have their own reasons to do so. You see- once there is corruption or wrong doing in one section of the society, it percolates into every other section; and everyone who gets his hands dirty- colludes due to fear, shame, greed, guilt and all things evil. And then they ignorantly hurt themselves and others in the process- until one of them has the courage to stand up, clear the fog, and think clearly.


- Some of my thoughts blended in with former British MP Tony Benn's.

Little angel and tiny minds

Rubiya, a teenage girl from Kerala is too wise and talented for her age. She's an ace dancer, a class topper and an outstanding cadet. But she and her brave parents have a price to pay- being ostracized by their religious community.

Belonging to a Muslim family, Rubiya is shunned by her community for practicing a popular dance form called Bharatnatyam and performing at Hindu temples. But even this little girl understands that art has no boundaries. She remarks- "God is one. When I pay ritualistic obeisance through mudras [hand signs], I am imploring not just the Hindu gods but the supreme creator, which we call by different names."

Perhaps, she has found the spirituality in her beliefs which continue to elude her elders at the mosque. But surely destiny will favour the brave. Read her story on BBC. [Link]

Go East young man!

India has been a land that has always welcomed outsiders. It has been a favourite destination for travellers and invaders for generations. Now we are all set for the high-tech invasion.

Take a look at this recent coverage by CBS:

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/02/28/eveningnews/main1356810.shtml

A report on young Americans who have made India their home, and another calling India a land of contrasts.

Some tips for the daring ones before they embark upon their trip to India:
1. Make sure you take some elephant riding lessons at your local zoo. Pay special attention to the nuances of parallel parking,
2. Make sure you memorize atleast a hundred names of Indian Gods and Goddesses out of the millions documented so far,
3. Practice the squatting technique for atleast a month or else beware of the great Indian loo, [Link]
4. Mark 1" circles of different colors at forehead level on your wall and practice focussing on them every 10 mins. You'd need this technique to identify one woman from another in India,
5. Resist all urges to use cutlery while dinning out from now on. Practice techniques of using your fingers and palm of your hands in several dynamic contortions to manouveur your food.

Whatever you do, you cannot resist falling in love with this beautiful country- a country so diverse yet so unified!
