Today it was around 6:30 PM..i was near koramanagala first block citi bank ATM. there was no crowd in the streets..reason could be evening rain or IPL cricket match.. ..already the salary credited to my account..was busy in collecting the cash..the meantime one grandpaa entered in to ATM. very .carefully inserted the one envelop in the cheque deposit box .. later he quired in kannada to  the ATM security about the cheque collection time..security could not able to understand kannada..:(  this time grandpa queried in hindi..security replied tommorow morning 8'o clock..some aggression in grandpa's face.
.you work in karnataka dont you know kannada?? okie what is your native place..
orissa

i thought things getting worse just intervened..grandpa asked me in english where are you from ?? UP or Punjab? i replied to him in kannada..i am from tamilnadu...Grandpaa slightly got relaxed now..he continued....i asked the security only to make awareness ,like we old people suffer a lot because of this language communication..i said yes..the rain started at mean time..grandpaa could not able to move...i offered lift to him in my car..intially he did not accepted but heavy rain would have forced him to join with me..

i played kannda songs from the movie 'Super' in my car...i was able to see relaxed sensations from his face now..finally he said bye bye ..i

while coming back to home lot of thoughts were going around !! there is no chance of this kind of conversations either in Chennai or in Mumbai or in Hyderabad.. in chennai without having the knowledge of tamil no one can survive.same applicable to other metro's as well.. but in karnataka without learning their language without respecting their culture anyone can survive !! what a pity is this ??? the outsiders like us taking over advantage of the the kannadiga's..
i mingled with various sections of the society.. different ethinity but i never seen such a wonderfull people like kannadiga's ..always cool..always respectfull..hightly patient group..

there is always an negative image portrayed about kannadiag's ..but its totally wrong..i live bangalore for long time.. traveled across so many places in karnataka..i never witnessed any negative aspect from them.. i have more kannadiga's friends when compared to my tamil circle. hmm finally to say..the kannada language speaking group is diminishing in bangalore..its not a good sign .. we should not ignore the original inhabitants of this land..

its boxing in day in tamilnadu, even i lost the touch with day to day moments across my home land few things still makes to flutter over there..
this time jayalalitha contesting in Srirangam the place where i lived for more than 5 years. even though i attracted by the communist principles few exceptions are there..i want jayalalitha to sworn the power again in tamilnadu.. untill few years back i had sympathy over DMK but when started knowing things better..found jayalalitha a charismatic leader   and lot of influence over the people which was earned with pure affection. there are enough arguments can be given on her efficiency ..the way she handled TN government staff strike, the way handled the law and order problem,, perhaps like any indian poltician she too carries lot of lotting records..but if i think for a better future for tamilnadu i will vote only to her..we can speak lot about jayalaitha, the way the innocent talented kannada school girl transferred in to a actress..later as a CM. i will write in detail..

Satya Sai Baba

Few may call him as a magician few may call him as a god...but his popularity can 't be denied . the one of the powerfull man in the indian history..good things in oneside lot of issues on other side. but he has pulled so many people towards advaitha . i believe none of the personalities in this world does not has any dispute background..

i believe Shridi Sai baba and i m one of the follower for him..but my mind always takes backward on satya sai baba.. though he claims the successor of the earlier but i hardly believe. though satya sai has predicted his successor will born @ 2025 in mandya but only the coming years can tell more about this..

wherever more wealth is involved the corruption spoils the show..thirupathi temple is best example for this..when first time i visited the thirupathi temple and saw the god i had a feeling like had darshan of the real god. but successive trips to thirupathi always shows one more more bitter things because of the temple staff corruption.

Puttaparthi ashram also generates huge income , till this date the part of income were spent for public welfare like Hospital in whitefield, irrigation and water supply for royala seema, drinking water for chennai city..now i believe this trust would be taken over by AP Govt..any cash rich resources handled by government will end up with chaos and corruption..i pray for Satya sai baba for at least stopping this action , he should recover fast.
