What We Do in the Name of God: An Account of My Visit to SriKalahasti Temple

Image
Yesterday, I visited an ancient, renowned temple called SriKalahasti with my family ( 8 people ranging from age 5 to 6).My account of this visit is from the perspective of an agnostic who is hesitant to travel to another state just for pooja and darshan at a temple. SriKalahasti Temple As soon as we stepped outside the bubble of our tourist car, we were surrounded by several unkempt, hungry pilgrims. They all began speaking at once. They had traveled from far off places and had no money. One of them requested for money to buy food. My uncle opened his wallet and handed over a few rupee notes and coins. That was enough to attract another bunch of saffron clad pilgrims. We managed to evade them and enter the temple premises. The inner premise of SriKalahasti was constructed back in the 5th century A.D. whereas the extended area was built in the 12th century. It is only expected that the structure would be imposing and awe-inspiring. We were told that the puja was not to beg...

One Solution to All Problems: Tips from the Tamil Nadu Government

Image
A recent visit to my hometown, Chennai left me longing to get back to Delhi. From the moment one enters the city, the exorbitant cost of taxis and autos empties one's pockets. The meters in auto-rickshaws  are showpieces which have probably been corroded to dis-functionality. No government standards are followed. A 25km taxi ride in Delhi costed us about Rs.500 as compared to Rs.800 in Chennai. No auto-rickshaw will charge less than Rs.70 for a 5km ride. There is not a soul to control the atrocious behaviour of the auto drivers of the city.  That was just one of the many problems in the state: a failing education system which only produces marks-scoring machines; power shortage all over the state, rampant privatization of higher education institutions - leading to granting of degrees like laddus in temples; widely prevalent caste based issues; poor infrastructure; widespread corruption; extreme poverty... the list is endless.  O...

Tales from Abu Dhabi

Image
Airports seem to be the place for unique experiences. While waiting to board a midnight flight from Abu Dhabi to Delhi, the passenger waiting area was full of immigrant workers - all men. Regardless of how safe the airport was, being the only female in a hall full of testosterone can be a frightful prospect. To my relief, a middle aged  American woman walked into the waiting area. She looked equally relieved to find a female face in a sea of men. We made sure we were seated next to each other. Later, a few more women walked in. Still, on a flight with over a hundred passengers, I could count the number of women on two hands.  During the flight, I learnt that the woman I had the just met was an entrepreneur. Engrossed, I asked her if her trip to India was a business trip. She replied in the affirmative. She ran a clothing line in Mexico whose production was based in Jaipur. She often visited India and some more Asian countries to oversee the production and in search of ne...
