Magnetic power at places of worship

Visited Andherichya Raja (Ganpati Pandal) on the auspicious festival days. It is always said that the sanctum sanctorium of a temple or a place of worship has some magnetic field , some powers which we can't really explain.

The wait in the queue was close to an hour and i was quite bored. The approach was mired by uneven platforms to walk on. My mind was wandering. However as soon as i reached the place of worship, i closed my eyes to offer prayers and went into a deep trance like focus. I could feel some power over there. I can surely say that if that kind of focus can be retained for whole day every day, we can achieve whatever we put our mind to. It was an amazing experience

Chess Title received

I have now received the chess title of "Candidate Master" from FIDE (the world chess federation).

Eye Power - well done Patanjali !

Today i had a eye power checkup. The basic intention was to actually switch from an anti glare lens to a special lens which will also block rays from smart phones and keep eyes cool.

To my surprise my power has actually gone down from -1.25 to -1 in one eye and from -1 to - 0.5 in the other. Not sure whether such a thing happens frequently with all. I attribute this to Patanjali agurvedic Mahatriphaladi Ghrit which i was testing for a few days and the immense trust i place in the brand.

Sales incentive and minimum wage

Every few months i see new notifications of rise in minimum wages across states in India.  While this does hit businesses, the hardest it hits is the section of sales force - the feet on street.

Sales force thrives on incentives, within the ambit of incremental revenues and affordability. Just imagine a sales executive with base salary of INR 10 k per month and the opportunity to earn incentives upto 60% of the base pay...so another -INR 6k per month.

Now you get a notification that the minimum wage for the particular category has been increase from 10k to 13k. Fine, you implement that. What happens of the sales incentive potential? Are businesses growing so fast? No. So what then happens is that the potential is to be either reduced from INR 6k to INR 3k or reduce the sales force to keep similar incentive earning potential as earlier.  Decide where to jump - on one side is a well and the other side is a deep gorge. This remains an interesting challenge for sales incentive professionals - to draw a balance

Social reformer - Vijay Mallya

We have had great social reformers in India-those who tirelessly fought against the evils plaguing our society and made it a better place. If i have to identify someone who has had the greatest impact on society in the last few years- it would be undoubtedly Vijay Mallya. He is in the news for all the wrong reasons. But he has delivered one amazing punch by highlighting the inhuman state of Indian jails. It has become an international talking point and Indian government finally has to answer and laboriously explain the state of jails to someone.

This is a landmark phase and i believe will awaken the babus from their deep anti-society slumber. You may even wonder how we have managed to keep the jails so bad for so long. What the hell was govt. doing all these years? In this context, i hail Vijay Mallya as a social reformer.
