It is now more then 14 months since my son entered the world. While he is so tiny, he did cause some huge changes for me. I started waking up even with slightest cue he makes even in the middle of the night. I started looking at his face in pictures instead of mine. I don't like the quite environment when he is not around. My patience level is atleast doubled. I never thought I will love someone so much even whey are the cause of my sleep deprivation. This small fellow became the prime factor when I make any decisions. Source of my feelings moved to him. If he is playing, I am happy and if he is crying, I am worried. I am more happy with his tiny milestones (like crawling and walking) then my personal achievements. My photos became scares on my phone, they were replaced by my little one. My screen time for non-work related stuff reduced drastically.

While I find many poems, short stories in Telugu language by google search. I find it difficult to find them in Telugu Lyrics. Also, many times the searches will show an image instead of text in Telugu. To make it easy for any other Telugu language lovers like me, I started another blog dedicated to stuff from Telugu language. I am starting with Vemana Padyalu. Please find the link to my new blog below- https://trilingabhashasahityam.blogspot.com

While everything that is happening on that day is unexpected and scary for Mahesh, what happened last 2 minutes only made them multifold. Relieved to see the scorpion pushed away from his thigh, Mahesh turned back to see who that is. There Mahesh saw a man with brown skin tone.  That person is carrying a stick with sharp nails at the end. That looked like a hunting tool. He is wearing something similar to glasses that covered his whole eye without any opening. The cloths he is wearing looked very strange, in the world of Mahesh, he would be beaten and driven away for wearing these cloths. His cloths looked like multi pieces of thread hanging from top to bottom without any gap. Mahesh, with all his knowledge of history, never knew about these kind of clothing.  Mahesh suddenly got a doubt, did he travel through time backward or forward? Is he still in Hyderabad or does he moved to a different location while traveling through the time. It might be hardly 10seconds since Mahesh s...

Krishna : Arjuna, a true yogi is the one who performs the tasks he is responsible for with no desire on results obtained through it. But not the one who just performs religious duties and abandons his responsibilities. Performing tasks without the desire is the tool to meditate. He who doesn’t have material wishes, and abandons desires is a true yogi. Remember that a person is responsible for himself. He can either become his own friend or enemy. You can experience the divine by not getting effected by happiness or sadness and respect or shame. A yogi should be able to get content with his knowledge and raise above his senses. He sees both sand and gold as same. He doesn’t distinguish between friend, family, enemy, wise and ignorant. Yogi should have his mind and senses under control, and dwell with himself without any wishes. He should continue his learning with concentration in a clean and flat place. While learning, he should stand with a straight body posture, look straight with co...

While there are many awesome sweet poems in Telugu. This poem written by Alasani Peddana in "Pravaruni Swagatam" stands out. I read this in my 10th standard Telugu. But, after about 18years, I still can recite this poem. This poem is so lovely. అటజని కాంచె భూమిసురడంబర చుంబి శిరస్సరజ్ఝరీ పటల ముహుర్ముహుర్లుఠదభంగతరంగ మృదంగనిస్స్వన  స్ఫుట నటనానుకూల పరిఫుల్ల కలపాకలాపి జాలమున్  గటకచరత్క రేణు కరకంపిత సాలము శీతశైలమున్ 

This TEDx talk is so interesting to see what a person goes through in his entire life. A study on human development for this long might be rare if not unique. But, the findings in this study are profound. Though the study is conducted in United States, I am sure results from a new place won't be that different. I recommend everyone to spare 13 minutes of their life watching this video. It may change your perspective of life.

Mahesh walked with all those questions in mind for about an hour. He doesn't know what time it is, what date it is, what year it is and what place it is. He is getting thirsty and his feet started to pain, he is not used to walk outside barefooted. The skin tight cloths he is wearing are making him even more uncomfortable. He continued his journey in a random direction. He is not able to guess the direction he is going as it is already mid day. Atleast if it is morning or evening, he would have guessed the direction based on the position of Sun. After walking for about 30 more minutes, he saw moving water. In his whole life Mahesh never felt the taste of water till then. He drank water by using his palms and washed his face. The cold water touching his face on this warm day has brought a wonderful joy to him. But that joy remained with him for only few seconds before the questions came back to his mind. With very tired body, tired mind and with hungry belly, Mahesh sat below a tree...

Arjuna : Krishna, you are praising both Karma Sanyasa (Detachment with duty) and Karma Yoga (performing once duty) in parallel. Which is very confusing. Please let me know which one to follow and which one of them is better for me. Krishna : Both these are great. But in my opinion, performing once duty(Karma Yoga) is better than trying to detach with their duty(Karma Sanyasa). Also, it is not possible to attain Karma Sanyasa without performing Karma Yoga. In short, you can attain Karma Sanyasa by performing your tasks(Karma Yoga) without lust and expectations. Once you are able to carry your duties that way, you will also attain Salvation. He who performs his tasks with self-conscious mind, pure heart and considering every living creature same as self will not be bounded or effected by his duties even though he performs them. He performs all his tasks, but still be the person who won’t dwell on them. He does his tasks only for purifying his sole but not with interest. The ultimate rule...

It is 4 in the morning. Everyone is having a sound sleep. But, it is not the case with Mahesh. Not that he is worried about the tight deadline in office. In reality, he is not able to stop thinking if he really wants to use the device for time traveling or not. If he uses it, he won't be able to deliver the project he committed for. Again, opportunity like this won't present to everyone. Not utilizing it doesn't sound good for Mahesh. His thoughts still wandering and making a list of pros and cons of using the device. Then his thoughts slowly blurred and Mahesh went into a deep sleep on his comfortable bed. His sleep is disturbed by the sound of his phone ringing and vibrating continuously. Not knowing the time and with much difficulty, Mahesh answered the phone. He felt that there is a huge noise from other end and before he can make what it is, the call is ended. Mahesh gained little consciousness, and realized that it is his Manager on other end. He also found that the t...

While we know about many toxic chemicals like Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide, Hydrogen Monoxide and many other. One chemical that we often ignore is Dihydrogen Monoxide(DHMO). The way it is effecting every human is unthinkable. While its side effects are historically considered minor and are ignored by people, no scientist denies the significant side effects caused by Dihydrogen Monoxide. In fact, it acts as a shelter to major source of bacteria and viruses. These bacteria and viruses attack human and cause severe damage to health, when a person gets into close contact with this compound. In few unfortunate cases, it is even fatal for the human. It is time to acknowledge that the risks associated with DHMO has increased multiple fold now. This might be the correct time to consider banning DHMO from public use. Consider the number of people that will be saved by avoiding the diseases brought by DHMO. Diseases caused due to DHMO is only one of the major side effects. There are multiple ...
