All my sense organs, including the mind, had left their places and come to stay in my eyes alone, for the purpose of meditating upon the Guru.

“No” From IIT -JEE … But Big “YES” from Stanford University !!!
Visually impaired Delhi student Kartik Sawhney has repeatedly been denied permission to appear for the IIT-JEE in the past three years because of his disability. However, in March 2013, he was awarded a fully funded scholarship to pursue engineering at Stanford University in the US. This is his story.
On May 27, 2013, when 18-year-old Kartik Sawhney scored 96 per cent in his Class 12 CBSE examination, he became the country’s first ever visually impaired student to have achieved the feat in the science stream.
Appearing from Delhi Public School, RK Puram, he scored 99 in computer science (his favourite subject) and 95 each in English, mathematics, physics and chemistry; his total is 479 out of 500.
Recalling some of the challenges, he says, “Studying with normal students wasn’t easy, and neither was choosing a stream of my choice.”
Determination and perseverance are the key factors to his success — he simply would not take no for an answer.
“A lot of people think that disabilities limits you from doing certain things. But I think success comes to those who believe in their strengths,” he states.
Sawhney, who comes from a middle class family — his father Ravinder Sawhney is a businessman and mother Indu Sawhney a homemaker — confesses that aiming high and making tough decisions at every stage was still easier than executing them.
For three years in a row, he has been denied permission to appear for the IIT-JEE; he was told that there is no provision for blind students to take the competitive exam. But he did not lose hope and applied to universities abroad.
And in March 2013, Sawhney received a fully funded scholarship to pursue a five-year engineering programme at Stanford University. Once armed with this degree, he intends to “improve the condition of visually impaired back in India”.

501 Reasons Why Brian Lara was the Best !!!.. 6 June 1994..A Date To Remember !!!!
Cardiff, June 6 — Nineteen years ago to the day, Brian Lara authored one of the greatest moments in the annals of cricket. Edgbaston, June 6, 1994. If that doesn’t mean anything to you, you probably don’t qualify as a cricket nut.
In this part of the world, the cricketing slang Nelson (derived from the one eyed, one armed, one legged English Admiral Nelson) evokes a great deal of trepidation. It applies when a batsman or a team is on 111. Lara, of course, wasn’t one for superstitions.
Full Nelson
The Trinidadian started the day unbeaten on 111, after rain washed out the third day’s play and following a customary rest day on Sunday. By lunch he had already raced well past 250. Gladstone Small, his Warwickshire teammate, recalls the instant when Lara made his intentions clear. “We were sitting in the dressing room at lunch.me, Brian and Keith Piper (the wicket-keeper). He said, ‘I’m going for the record’. I asked, ‘What the 375?’. He said, ‘No. Hanif Mohammad’s 499’. I asked him ‘Are you serious? You’re still 250 runs away’. He said, ‘You watch me’,” recalled Small.
As a plethora of records fell by the wayside, the teammates began to take notice. By the time tea was taken, he was just 82 shy. “We then realised that Durham could walk away 30 minutes before the end of play, because the match was heading to a draw,” remembered Small.
Nick of time
As Lara reached 497, two runs shy of Mohammad’s 36-year-old record, the fact just dawned on him. John Morris, a part-timer who had hit a double ton for Durham, was bowling the over.
“The fourth ball of the over he bowled a bouncer that hit him on the head. The next ball, he hit a beautiful off-drive, and we declared the innings. If he hadn’t hit those runs, Durham would have walked off. As soon as he hit the boundary, skipper (Dermot Reeve) declared the innings,” said Small.
The legendary moment would have never arrived had it not been for a bit of luck early in his innings. Lara was bowled off a no-ball when he was on 12, but the decisive moment came on 18. “The form Lara was in that season was just unbelievable. I reckon he must’ve edged just 3 or 4 balls all season. For an attacking left-handed batsman that was incredible. But on 18, he nicked one and the Durham wicket-keeper Chris Scott dropped it. He said at the time, ‘I hope he doesn’t get a hundred’.”
A century, of course, was the least of his concern. The innings capped a memorable 50 days for Lara, who since he broke the Test world record with 375 against England in Antigua, went on a run of 7 hundreds in 8 first-class innings. Bradmanesque!
The other love
The season was also a defining one for Lara, his first in English cricket. Warwickshire won the treble, and he found his other great sporting passion – golf. “The Belfry Golf Course (which has hosted the prestigious Ryder Cup) is on the outskirts of Birmingham. At the time, Lara had never played golf. Brian was one of those guys where batting was the only thing he did left-handed.
He bowled right-handed, signed autographs right-handed, he even played golf right-handed. He had a twenty handicap, but he played so much golf that year. His great Trinidadian friend Dwight Yorkewas with Aston Villa (Birmingham based) at the time and two would always head to Belfry when they would get time off. Roger Twose, the New Zealander, was also in our team and he played lefty. His golf clubs were also left-handed. Brian borrowed his clubs, but he couldn’t play golf that well as a southpaw,” recalled Small.
A day after the match Lara headed to London to do the breakfast show circuit, many interviews were lined up and he spent a good part of the day there. In the night he went out partying to celebrate the momentous feat. The next day, Warwickshire were playing a domestic limited over match. “He was really tired, he could barely keep his eyes open.
He asked the skipper to be put on the boundary. That didn’t work out. He then asked to be put at slips. He just couldn’t keep his eyes open and he asked the umpire to go off the field. We were set a target of over 250. We lost a few early wickets, he somehow managed to get it all together, and went out to bat. He got 70-odd and we won. What a player!”
Indeed. What a player!!!!

Solve This Math. Problem!!! And Claim $1 Million from Texas Banker !!!!
Texas banker and self-taught mathematician D. Andrew Beal has increased the cash prize for proving a conjecture he discovered in 1993, the Associated Press reported.
Held by the American Mathematical Society, the $1,000,000 cash prize goes to the first to prove the Beal Conjecture, an offshoot of the legendary Fermat’s Last Theorem proof that was solved by Andrew Wiles in 1994.
Here’s the problem that can make you rich.
Fermat’s Last Theorem went unsolved for hundreds of years. It said that no three positive integers a, b and c can satisfy
ax + bx = cx
when integer x is greater than two. While this may seem somewhat simple, and if you play around with it it becomes self-evident, it’s a complete pain to prove.
Andy Beal had been working on Fermat’s Last Theorem when he stumbled upon a different problem. At the time, he was using computers to look at similar equations with different exponents.
Beal’s Conjecture is related. If a, b, c, x, y, and z are all positive integers and x, y, z are greater than two,
ax + by = cz
is only possible when a, b and c have a common prime factor.
Beal found during his computations that the only solutions to the equation were when a, b and c had a common factor — like how 8, 6 and 10 all have a common factor of 2 — so he contacted folks in academia to confirm that the problem was new, then set up a prize with the AMS for the person who proves his conjecture.
So, if you find a proof or counterexample to Beal’s Conjecture that gets approved by the AMS-appointed committee and gets into a journal, you get a million bucks.

Action Replay of “The Birds” … Alfred Hitchcock Movie !!!
A scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds released in 1963. Tourists visiting the Farne Islands have been forced to dive for cover in scenes reminiscent of the film ” The Birds ” during visits to a huge nesting site !!!
Thousands of terns nesting on the isolated Farne Islands are dive-bombing and pecking people’s heads forcing them to take cover during visits to islands off the coast of Northumberland.
Even bird watchers trying to photograph them are watching helplessly as the creatures attack their cameras.
Will Scott, National Trust Ranger, said: ‘The terns are trying to protect their eggs and also to protect their chicks.
‘Obviously they nest quite close to the board walk which gives them a bit of protection from the gulls who come and take their eggs.
‘It’s a bit of a love hate relationship because the humans that are protecting them by chasing away the gulls are also quite close to their eggs which is why they are pecking head and can drop a little present on you as well.’
But the attacks are not putting off tourists visiting the islands.
One visitor said: ‘I think they’re fantastic, it is the first time I have been for years. I’m not scared, what’s the point in being scared, they’re just friendly. I really love them.’
Another said: ‘They are absolutely fantastic, this is the second time I have been and I’d recommend it to anybody.’
When asked about visitors being scared of the birds, she said: ‘They know what they’re coming into, they should be prepared and bring a hat. It’s no good hitting the birds, they are just protecting their nest.’
The Farne Islands are a group of 20 islands and are home to hundreds of seals and one of Britain’s largest sea bird colonies.
Mr Scott said: ‘The Farne Islands are really important for arctic tern. We are one of the largest colonies in England and one of the most successful as well.
‘The presence of people makes the terns a lot more successful, a lot more collective as a colony and produce a lot more chicks because of the lack of
predators who come and steal their chicks while they are raising them.’

“திருக்குறள் படிக்க வேண்டாம் “…என்று மகாபெரியவர் சொன்னாரா என்ன !!!!
ஒரு பத்திரிக்கைக்காரன் என்கிற முறையில் பரமாச்சாரியார் பற்றி இரண்டு முக்கிய செய்திகளில் நான் பங்கு பெற நேர்ந்தது.
ஒன்று – நான் நிருபராக ஒரு மாலை பத்திரிக்கையில் பணிபுரிந்த போது . வயது இருபது தான் இருக்கும்.
அடுத்தது – assosiate editor ஆக வார இதழில் பணிபுரிந்தபோது !
அது 1962 என்று நினைக்கிறேன் . அன்று ஞாயிற்றுக்கிழமை . மாலை பத்திரிக்கைக்கு பரபரப்பாக ஏதாவது வேண்டுமே! அன்று நானும் நியூஸ் எடிட்டரும் என்னன்னவோ செய்தும் – பெரிய சேதி கிடைக்கவில்லை .
ஒரு மணி . எல்லாரும் சாப்பிட்டுக்கொண்டிருக்க , நான் தபாலில் வந்தவைகளை பிரித்து பார்த்துக்கொண்டிருந்தேன். மத சம்பந்தமான ஒரு இதழ் . பிரித்து பார்த்தேன். அதிர்ச்சி அடைந்தேன்.
‘திருக்குறளை படிக்க வேண்டாம்’ என்று பரமாச்சாரியர்கள் சொன்னதாக ஒரு செய்தி . அது மார்கழி மாதம்.
திருப்பாவையில் – பாவை நோன்பு கடைபிடிப்பது பற்றி ஆண்டாள் . ‘ நெய் உண்ணோம் . பால் உண்ணோம் ‘ என்று வரிசைப் படுத்துகிறார். அப்போது தீக்குறளை சென்றோதோம்’ என்று அந்தப்பாடலில் வருகிறது.
இதற்குப்பொருளாக – ‘திருக்குறளை படிக்கக்கூடாது ‘ என்று பரமாச்சாரியார் கூறியதாக அதில் இருந்தது !
தீக்குறளை சென்றோதோம் என்றால் – ஒருவரைப்பற்றி ‘ கோள் ‘ சொல்வது – புறம்கூறுவது செய்ய மாட்டோம் என்று தான் பொருள்.
திருப்பாவை வேதத்தின் சாரம் என்று சொல்லப்படுவது . ஒருவரைப்பற்றி பொல்லாங்கு – கோள் – சொல்வதை வேதம் மாபெரும் பாவம் , தவறு என்று கூறுகிறது. ஆண்டாள் அதைத்தான் கூறினார்.
பரமாச்சாரியார் இப்படி கூறியிருப்பாரா ? எங்கோ தவறு நடந்திருக்கிறது என்று நினைத்தவாறு – அந்தப்பகுதியை நியூஸ் எடிட்டர் பார்வைக்கு அனுப்பினேன் . பிறகு மறந்தேன்
அன்று மாலை பேப்பரை பார்த்து திடுக்கிட்டேன்.
‘திருக்குறளைப் படிக்காதே – காஞ்சி சங்கராச்சாரியார் உத்தரவு !” என்று வெளியிடப்பட்டிருந்தது. இது பரபரப்பு ஏற்படுத்திவிட்டது .தமிழ் அறிஞர்கள் திடுக்கிட்டார்கள் . பெரும் கண்டனம் தமிழ் அறிஞர்களிடம் இருந்து கிளம்பியது.
எனக்கு வருத்தமாக இருந்தது. நிச்சயம் ஏதோ பிழை என்று தோன்றியதை செய்தி ஆசிரியரிடம் கூற தவறி விட்டேனே என்று உள்ளம் உறுத்தியது.
மற்ற தமிழ் நாளிதழ்களிலும் அடுத்தடுத்து வந்த நாட்களில் தினமும் இந்த செய்தி பெரிதுபடுத்தபட்டது. தினம் ஒரு கண்டன அறிக்கை !
ஆச்சாரிய சுவாமிகளிடமிருந்து விளக்கம் வராது என்பது எனக்கு தெரியும் . யாராவது அவரிடம் போய் பேசினால் , தவறு திருத்தப்பட வாய்ப்பு ஏற்படும்.
அதற்குள் ‘ குமுதம் ‘ இதழில் இது குறித்து தலையங்கம் எழுதப்பட்டு விட்டது. தலைப்பு –
‘யானைக்கும் அடி சறுக்கும்?’
குமுதம் தலையங்கம் அக்காலத்தில் மிகவும் விறுவிறுப்புடன் இருக்கும் . சுடச்சுட விஷயங்களைத் தொடுவார் எஸ்.ஏ.பி.
இந்த தலையங்கம் பலன் தந்தது . திருமதி சௌந்திரா கைலாசம் , காஞ்சி பெரியாரை தரிசிக்க சென்றார்.அப்போது இந்த விஷயத்தை மெதுவாக எழுப்பினார். பெரியவர் கூறியது தவறாக வந்திருக்கலாம் என்று சுட்டிக்காட்டினார்.
காஞ்சி பெரியவர் கூறிய விளக்கம் அடுத்த குமுதம் இதழில் செய்தியாக திருமதி கைலாசம் எழுதினார் :
“மார்கழி மாதம் கடவுளைப்பற்றிய நினைவுகளுக்கு மட்டுமே செலுத்த வேண்டிய மாதம் .
தீக்குறள் மட்டுமல்ல – திருக்குறள் போன்ற மிக உயர்ந்த நல்ல விஷயங்களைக்கூட கூறாமல் – கடவுள் நாமத்தையே சொல்ல வேண்டும் ”
பெரியவர் இப்படி மார்கழி மாதத்தில் இறைவனை மட்டுமே நினைக்க வேண்டியதை வலியுறுத்த சொல்லி இருக்கிறார் !
இந்த விளக்கம் வந்தவுடன் அமைதி ஏற்பட்டுவிட்டது . சௌந்திரா கைலாசம் அவர்களுக்கு என் மனம் நன்றி கூறியது.
அடுத்த நிகழ்ச்சி – 1987 ம் ஆண்டு .
ஜெயந்திர சரஸ்வதி சுவாமிகள் காஞ்சி மடத்தை விட்டு வெளியேறியதை அடுத்து ஏற்பட்ட பரபரப்பு நிகழ்ச்சி.
பல்வேறு அவதூறான செய்திகள் வந்து கொண்டிருந்தன. எனது இதழுக்காக உண்மைகளை சேகரித்தேன்.
காஞ்சிபுரம் சென்று ஸ்ரீமடத்திலும் மெல்ல தகவல் சேகரித்தேன். மகா பெரியவர் – ஓரிடத்தில் அமர்ந்திருப்பதைப் பார்த்தேன். இந்த விஷயமாக மகா பெரியவரை பேட்டி எடுத்தால் என்ன என்றே தோன்றியது. 1962 நிகழ்ச்சியில் – ‘ அவசரப்பட்டதுபோல’ இப்போது கூடாது . எதிரே காட்சி தருகிறாரே … கேட்கலாமே என்று மனசாட்சி கூறியது . பணிந்தேன்.
சுவாமிகளிடம் நான் பேச முற்பட்ட போது சுற்றி இருந்த வயதான பக்தர்கள் தடுத்தார்கள். ‘ பெரியவரிடம் இதைப்பற்றி எல்லாம் கேட்பதா ? அவரை பேட்டி எடுப்பதா ‘ என்று சினந்து என்னை வெளியேறச் சொன்னார்கள்.
“என்ன …. என்ன …. அவன் என்ன கேட்கிறான் ?” என்று சுவாமிகள் நாற்புறமும் திரும்பி
விசாரித்தும் – அதற்கு பக்தர்கள் பதில் கூறாமல் என்னை விரட்டுவதிலேயே குறியாக இருந்தார்கள்.
நான் ஸ்ரீமடத்தைவிட்டு வெளியே வந்து , டிபன் சாப்பிட போகலாம் என்று நினைத்தேன். அதற்குள் ஒரு வயதான பக்தர் ஓடிவந்தார். ” பெரியவா கூப்பிடுகிறார்” என்றார். நான் ஓடினேன்.
“என்ன சந்தேகம் ….. கேளு ” என்று மெதுவான குரலில் பரமச்சாரியார் கூறினார். நான் கேள்விகளை பணிவுடன் கேட்டேன்.
“பரமாச்சாரியாரிடம் கோபித்துக் கொண்டே ஜெயேந்திரர் வெளியேறினாரா ? என்று கேட்டேன் . பக்தர்கள் முகத்தில் கோபம் பளிச்சிட்டது.
‘ அப்படி இல்லை . அவருக்கு என் மீது ரொம்ப அன்பு . எனக்கு கனகாபிஷேகம் செய்து பார்த்தரே ” என்று பரமாச்சாரியார் கூறும் போது ஜெயேந்திரர் மீது அவருக்கு இருந்த அன்பு வெளிப்பட்டது.
” ஸ்ரீ மடத்திலிருந்து பணம் எடுத்துச் சென்றாரா ?” என்று கேட்க நேர்ந்தது.
பரமாச்சாரியார் மறுத்து தலையாட்டினார். ” அவருக்கு எதற்கு பணம் ? அவர் நினைத்தால் பணம் கொட்டும் . இந்த மடம் ஏழை மடமாக இருந்தது. அதை மாற்றி – பல நல்ல காரியங்களை செய்பவர் அவர் ” – சுவாமிகள் கூறினார்.
வெளியே சொல்லப்பட்ட வதந்திகளை நான் கேட்க நேர்ந்தது.
“இம் மாதிரி நிகழ்ச்சி ஸ்ரீ மடம் பற்றி மக்கள் என்னவாறு நினைக்க செய்யும் “….
“மக்கள் மிக உயர்ந்தவர்கள் . அவர்கள் கருத்து எதுவானாலும் அது முக்கியம் . அதை அலட்சியப்படுத்தமுடியுமா ?” – பெரியவர் கூறினார். இன்னும் பல கேள்விகள் எழுப்பினேன் !
பத்திரிக்கையில் இந்த பேட்டி பரபரப்பாக வந்தது. ஜெயேந்திரர் பற்றிய வதந்திகளுக்கு முற்றுப்புள்ளி விழுந்தது. அடுத்து சில நாட்களில் ஜெயேந்திரர் திரும்பினார்.
பரமாச்சாரியாரிடம் சங்கடமான கேள்விகள் கேட்டதற்கு ஒரு சில பக்தர்கள் என்னை திட்டினாலும் , ஜெயேந்திரர் பற்றி பரமாச்சாரியார் அந்த பேட்டியில் உயர்வாக கூறியிருந்தது – தமிழகம் முழுவதும் இருந்த பக்தர்களுக்கு மகிழ்ச்சியும் உற்சாகமும் அளித்தது.

“Wash and Reuse” Notebook!!!…An Innovative Technique !!!!
When 21 year old engineering student Indrajeet Ghorpade saw waste paper bins at his college hostel overflowing with used notebooks at the end of every semester, he was horrified. If this was the waste generated by a single institution, he could only imagine the scenario at schools, colleges and universities across the country at the end of every academic cycle. Thousands of tonnes of paper wasted each year just on rough-work and calculations. Considering that India recycles only 26% of its paper,this amounted to shocking misuse of a non-renewable resource. Something needed to be done and fast.
The first step for Indrajeet, was admitting that despite technology providing us with paperless alternatives like laptops, tablets etc, the conventional paper notebook at least in the Indian context was here to stay. Although, access to technology is rapidly increasing, it remains out of reach for the poor student. Besides, writing and learning is still the most popular method of studying in India across the economic spectrum.
The question that kept doing the rounds in his mind was how did one come up with an environment-friendly alternative that was affordable and yet did not disrupt the preferred method of studying? At last it dawned upon him. A reusable notebook that uses washable synthetic sheets instead of paper. So simple.
“These sheets can be washed, dried,re-bound and used again,” says an enthusiastic Indrajeet. “Thus you end up saving electricity and trees that go into the manufacturing of the conventional paper notebooks as well as the money that goes into buying new books”.
“Since stationery can be very expensive,” he says. “This is an attractive alternative for the students. One does not fill all the pages of a book in a day, so you don’t have to wash it everyday. Most likely you’ll only need to do it once a month and its as simple as doing your laundry.”
The Reusable Notebook: Wash and re-use!When showcased at the Innovation Jockeys contest last year, the reusable notebook became an instant hit. Buoyed by the positive response generated by his product, its proud creator says it’s only a matter of time before the reusable notebook hits the market.
“I have presented my idea to few of the leading stationery manufactures and organizations that support eco-friendly innovations and have received a positive response. With efforts channeled in the right direction along with smart marketing strategies, we should be able to see the product being used in every household, school and college in near future.”
In his final year in engineering at the Vellore Institute of Technology, Indrajeet has already landed a cushy job with a prestigious internet company. However, he dreams of striking it big on his own someday. First on his agenda is creating an “educational Institution where teaching will happen in an unconventional way with a complete emphasis on gaining practical skills, encouraging creativity and innovation.”
Other dream projects include, turning his house and eventually the entire neighbourhood into an eco-friendly zone. A beach-side café also happens to be on the list.
However, the die-hard fan of Vint Cerf and Tim Berners-Lee insists that innovators today have a more difficult challenge ahead of them. Environmental sustainability must be a part of every solution. For him,a true trailblazer is one who can think diversely and “come up with a technique that is efficient, cost effective and supports sustainable development.” Much like the reusable notebook.

Laughter …The Best Medicine !!!…Lively Interview !!!
“When did India get independence?” A Candidate was asked.
“The efforts began a few years earlier and final result was in 1947” he replied.
“Who was responsible for our independence?”
“There were so many. Whom to mention? If I name one it will be an injustice to another.” He replied.
Is corruption the number one enemy in our country?”
“Some research is going on the subject and I can answer with certainty only after seeing the report” He replied.
The interview board was very pleased with his original and thoughtful answers and asked him not to reveal the questions to others, since they were planning to ask the same questions. When he went out naturally others were curious to know what was asked. He politely declined, but Suppandi, a persistent man, would not leave him.
“At least tell me the answers” he pleaded, and our friend obliged.
Then it was the turn of Suppandi. When he went inside, since his resume was slightly illegible, the board member asked him.
“By the way, what is your date of birth?”
He replied, “The effort began a few years earlier and final result was in 1947.
Somewhat puzzled, they asked another clarification.”What is your fathers name?”
He replied, “There were so many. Whom to mention? If I name one it will be injustice to the others”.
The interviewer was incensed. “Hey! are you mad or what?”
He replied. “Some research is going on the subject. I can answer with certainty only after seeing the report.”
