When I say 'nothing new' tha...Dear Harshal,<br />When I say 'nothing new' that doesn't mean I invented that thing...it means I already know about those things, have read or heard already, very simple. I don't claim that I invented but just say that information is not new to me. <br /><br />I am ready expressed my opinion about Rajiv Dixit, I listened to some of his talks and saw same pattern in them and based on that I commented. I don't say your thinking is wrong or you need to refine your thinking just because it doesn't agree with my thinking but it seems you think that way. I already told you if you find him relevant, then listen to him, follow him that's your choice but I find his talks somewhat biased and that's why listen to them rarely just to get some relevant information or to learn some Hindi that's all..I have not commented anything about what work Rajiv Dixit did, my comments were just about his lectures.

Why he didn't do that rather than just criticizing one movement which is at least trying to correct something rather than nothing?? Big question for me??Vinayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809381214735615158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9116259194112701133.post-56105384821892770512013-03-29T09:37:27.839-04:002013-03-29T09:37:27.839-04:00Why do I have to know reality of anyone?

I care about their thoughts and if they appeal me, educate me, inspire me or teach me something new I don't care from where they come, for me origin is not important but the content is. <br /><br />I know very well about anti-superstition wing and their activities, read a lot about them and I have no problem with their name "nastikmatwadi manch". I don't consider atheism as untouchable thing or threat to society rather I believe they are very important pillars of any society.<br /><br />What Lagoo does in his home is none of my business, he is free to worship anything he likes that's his personal choice. I heard Rajiv Dixit many times, he talks sense many times but his views are too pro Hindu, always anti-west, anti-congress and very one sided, he loves to show only one side of issue and score points on it, his excellent oratory skills helped him lot. I love his Hindi and get educated in many ways from his talks but I don't believe blindly in whatever he says. Will comment about this particular talk soon.

But these people are Aetheist only related to Hindu gods. (by the way, Ganapati is still worshiped in Mr.Lagoos' house, but he won't tell us). I have met him few times in the Jungles of Kothrud, Pune, where he comes for evening walk. I definitely know these people better. <br /><br />anyways listen above provided short audio clip; awaiting ur feedback.Harshal Naikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07437443959806355847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9116259194112701133.post-58751369370624985262013-03-03T09:54:35.416-05:002013-03-03T09:54:35.416-05:00Actually it’s very difficult to find any name whic...Actually it’s very difficult to find any name which is not associated with anything, whatever names we have are associated with some culture or other and there is nothing wrong in it, that is how it is. As I said simple process of naming your child is really interesting. Both parents have equal right to name their child and there is no reason why father’s opinion should count more or only is name should be the middle name or family name should always from his side, I am not against this but the system should not be that rigid. May be I am wrong in thinking like this, but I think that name of any child normally reflects parents own beliefs, it has really nothing to do with child, we all take pleasure to name them as per our own beliefs or to make some kind of statement and most of the time many parents look at their kids as their statement to society or their own reflection or means to fulfill their unfulfilled ambitions, we all are part of this process to some extend (knowingly or unknowingly). <br />But in this process some parents become control freak, they forget that their child is separate entity and only biologically related with them. They want to mold their child only in certain way (their own way), control every part of their life and some allow them to choose their own life and live as freely as possible. With all limitations and drawbacks which I have I try my best to give them maximum possible freedom to become independent person and believe me most parents will say that they do the same thing. The situation becomes complicated and very testing when your own child doesn’t agree with your ideas and want to take totally different path not aligned with our ideas, beliefs or expectations and you know how most parents behave under these circumstances.

Its very deep rooted habit of society which is transmitted from generation to generation in every culture and society, I think we need to get rid of this habit for good.Vinayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809381214735615158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9116259194112701133.post-25046228945345919392013-03-03T08:12:05.305-05:002013-03-03T08:12:05.305-05:00Just to remind you that no one named children afte...Just to remind you that no one named children after Pran the great actor but names of his co-actors were willingly given...why is simple...no villains in my family...lol :-)cmvairalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02699676887884625721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9116259194112701133.post-86185170078232320882013-03-02T18:32:44.644-05:002013-03-02T18:32:44.644-05:00I really wanted to give my child a name which nobo...I really wanted to give my child a name which nobody can associate with anything. One name I liked and would have been crazy for whole world was FREEDOM, I myself is so rooted to freedom and wanted name to be gender independent as well. Needless to say, my wife wasnt on the same page and I am not a forceful person since she shares 50% stakes in the child :). Next name AAZAD/AAZADI (this had to be gender specific, but this was religion independent and also means freedom which is something close to me) was also on top list, but since we did not know child's gender, my wife did not agree with aazadi, and somehow we forgot aazad in the process. While discussing after reading this post, we just realized that our child's name wud have been aazad as its a boy. But anyways, finally we settled for Nirbhay as I want my child to live a fearless life (another thing close to my life). I always lived a fearful life and paid (and still paying) dearly for that. Luckily my wife liked this name. I never cared about what my family thinks and they already know that. They did not like Nirbhay as well and they have started calling him Yash.
