The year it was -2011 -ಸಿಂಹಾವಲೋಕನ

" चलना  ही  ज़िन्दगी  हे   चलती ही जा रही हे   "....
                                         An year of mixed bag  ,it had every thing ,from Cricket World Cup success , 2G scams to land scams ,Anna Hazare  Movement and finally an year end hit Kolaveri and a Don 2 which  was a real  Kolaveri : (.Waiting for the boxing day bash now .
                       This was a year where nature showed its anger in Japan with a Tsunami.But Japan was up and running before we even blinked our eyes.Kudos to them and their conviction.
               What exactly is the significance of the new year whic is coming in a weeks time ?When i ask this question to myself i believe "There is only one time when it is essential to awaken. That time is now",so it doesnt really need a new year to have resolutions .But why a look back at the year gone by ?

Answer for that would be -as  lines of a Great Roman Orator goes  :

"Not to know what has been transacted in former times is to be always a child. If no use is made of the labors of past ages, the world must remain always in the infancy of knowledge"

Finally thanking an year where i made great friends,some good happened on career front and an year where i still remain a mystry for myself !

And let me end it with
                                  " Live for nothing ,But die for Something "


                                                         Life As It Is
                                                                               Continues ...
                                                                                                                   Always Yours ,
                                                                                                                         Pavan

Guide karke Baazi Jeet ke Prem Pujari Chale Gaye. RIP Dev Saab ...

" आदमी  मरता है  उसकी  यादें  नहीं ." The body of work of Dev Anand is such that it will always remain in our hearts for a long time to come.
                                         Dev Saab "तोह  ज़िन्दगी  का  साथ  निभाते  चले  गए  और  हमारे  दिल  उनकी   यादो  से  अभी  भरा   भी  नहीं  था "
                                Navketan Pictures gave Indian Cinema some of the best know classics.

One filmmaker who believed in the abilities of people and not on the laurels they had previously achieved and their stardom while making films.
                Dev Saab "के  बारे  मैं   बात  करना  तो  सूरज  को  रौशनी  दिखने   जैसा  है "

                        दिन  ढल  जाए  हाय but Dev Saab आपके  याद  तो   हमें  सताता  रहेगा 
    R I P ... To the evergreen romantic hero of Indian Cinema . . .

ಶಂಕರನ ನೆನಪಿನಲ್ಲಿ ,Destiny and Choices

The last line of the poem “Invictus” (the Latin word meaning victorious) by English poet William Ernest Henley reads “I am the master of my fate.” Henley was a man who greatly believed that no matter what life threw at him, he was going to make a choice steer his destiny in the direction he wanted

Shankar Nag made his choices but ultimate truth is -destiny is the master and we cannot override the fate.
Even the destiny's child couldn't.


As i have said in my previous blogs .we can only choose the path not control it.Right or wrong is dependent on the value system inculcated in the individual and there can be no two  perspectives for this.It is either right or wrong .


First thing i notice every time i go to Ranga Shankara is these lines on the Board displayed  in the Place written by one of the theatre enthusiast.
                  "ನೀ ಕಂಡ ಕನಸುಗಳು ಅಪಾರ
                   ಅವೆಲ್ಲ ಆಗಿದೆ ಇಂದು ಸಾಕಾರ
                   ನೀ ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಎದ್ದು ನೋಡು ಬಾರಾ
                   ನಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯ ಶಂಕರ "

As i have elaborated in my previous blogs on path and choices ,this was one God's choice hope i could have changed.Remember choice is an reflection of the path chosen and path is based on the ingredients that the individual possess and this determines the path being right or wrong .In short We have no choices !.We create our path not the choices.This might look confusing but is the ultimate truth .

   Anyways What a Shankar Nag could have done in this age of mobile and computers is anybodies guess and i will leave it at there.
                        Ranga Shankara is a fitting tribute to the legend and more importantly the human being Shankar Nag was.I think it will take a separate blog for those stories though.

  Shankar Nag  took his own decisions .The most successful people I know don’t get all emotional about difficult choices in life – they just make a decision and move on

" ಇರುವುದು ಒಂದೇ ಜೀವನ ,ಎಲ್ಲವನ್ನು ಇದರಲ್ಲೇ ಮಾಡಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಅತೀವ ಆಸೆ " this defines Shankar Nag  for me

Move on in life means not to forget people here.Most people get the meaning of this statement wrong .This simply means the decisions should be not taken with a emotional mind set but with clarity of thought and move on suggests look into the future i.e with an insight into the future.

Life as it is continues .Lets not hurt anyone and spread love .One choice which does not require any decision to make and will always be right .That's were people remember us.

Reminds me of this age old statement 

"The only time, how much a person is loved is got to know when the person dies "

Hope someones listening ...


till then we live like this as Adigara lines -how true ...

"ಇರುವುದೆಲ್ಲವ ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಇರದುದರೆಡೆಗೆ ತುಡಿವುದೆ ಜೀವನ"...

ಅಡಿಗರು
These lines at least should  make people think .!


Hope i get the love to be loved by all .Till then ...
                                                                         ನೋಡಿ ಸ್ವಾಮಿ ನಾವೆರೋದು  ಹೀಗೆ 


ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯ
ಪವನ್
