On the Buddhapurnima, I take the opportunity to bow my head in reverence to Lord Buddha - the Shakyamuni.
His parents named him Siddhartha...the one who acheives his AIM. And he did acheive it when he went searching for the truth of life.

His Father Siddodhana, feared him to become an ascetic , thus kept him away from all religious stuff.. but all...

I have heard and read about Rabindranath Tagore..........the writer, the poet, playwright, philosopher, composer, artist, the nobel Laureate,..since I must have been ten or so. But he was never a hero in my sense of the word.
It was my visit to the Jallianwalla Bagh in Amritsar , a few years back that I realised his heroic streak. It was after this incident that I tried to find more of this versatile personality.
Not many had the courage to defy the colnial English rulers, but not him....

Something so important in our today's times happened , relating to Bapu Gandhi... so how could my inner self not feel something and how could it be that I do not discuss with my IL friends.

We all have seen in the last few days how the whole of the world has gone crazy fighting for the few things that a collector had of Bapuji. The reason for the number to be few was that Gandhiji did not believe in collecting, rather in disseminating. He gave away all he had. Did not leave trusts...

YOU FOUGHT BUT NOBODY SAW THE SWORD
He led by example, he was all for non violence and worried for all , without any pretentions. His adopted children got his love as his own.

दे दी हमें आज़ादी बिना खड़ग बिना ढाल, साबरमती के संत तूने...
