  Mini Stories on Wisdom and Life "Style wins over Substance" "What is more important in your view- style or substance?", she asked him. "I am not a Guru. I can share my experience only. Perception is the only reality because most of the people look at the surface. Only few have the wisdom to dig deep. Therefore style often wins over substance", he shared the gist of his experience. "I am in a profession which focuses on style. Yet I have more substance than style", she continued. "When substance develops style, it becomes unbeatable like you. I used to sing for you- I am in love with you I like your style", he replied. "So men fall in love with style not substance? And I don't have substance perhaps?", she asked. "I had seen your 'style' only in those days. Now I need to add 'substance' to the song's lyrics", he smiled. --------------------------------- "Unless" "T...

In the race for professionalism, state of the art technology and success, one thing has gone missing in our world-the human touch. Our business world is divided into B2B, B2C and now C2C, but isn’t something critical being left out in this classification. Perhaps H2H or Human to Human element in our interactions is what is often missing in our world. So when I met Mr VM Bansal, Chairman of NDIM, his warmth and human touch took me by surprise. When we talked in detail about the unique features of the institute, he especially emphasized about his open door policy for parents and students and the warm welcome they get every time. He also shared with pride, "MBA at NDIM is internationally accredited by the International rating body, ASIC (UK) with Premier College Status," a rare international recognition. R. Chandrashekhar, President NASSCOM visits NDIM The kind of exposure students get at NDIM is certainly a class apart. Recently NDIM had invited Mr R. Chandrashekhar, ...

"Of Lights and Stars" "Oh WOW you look so soulful in this photo as if", he said and paused. He liked creating mystery and suspense. "Ahaan as if what", she sounded restless for sure. Nothing troubles a woman as much as an incomplete compliment does. "As if you are not made up of flesh and blood. As if you are made up of lights and stars", he continued. "You know the art of complimenting so very well", she replied shyly. Brimming with joy inside. Trying hard to hide her smile outside. ----------------------------- Sweeter than Solitude "It seems every handsome hunk already has a girlfriend and every beautiful girl already has a boyfriend. I am the only idiot around who is single", she told her cousin. "You know you can never find the right relationship under peer pressure and competition. You first have to love yourself and then find someone who is sweeter than your solitude. Someone who...

Mini Stories on Wisdom and Life Moods "You have two very contrasting moods. I wonder which one you are in today", he pulled her leg. "And what are those two moods?", she wanted to know. "One is as if you want Dating. The other is Intimidating", he replied in a mischievous tone. -------------------------- The Chaos Magician "Leave me alone today. I am in a state of emotional-mental-spiritual chaos", she told in a feeble voice. "Then you have the right friend next to you", he replied. "And what does that mean?", she asked. "I am a chaos magician you know", he replied trying to cheer her up. "And who is that?", she questioned again. "Someone who can channelize the chaos into order with magic. Someone who can move the wrongly positioned stars into the appropriate places", he answered. "You just placed one misplaced star at the right place perh...

Mini Stories on Magic   Magic happens to you when you do it to someone else "You know that you have become my magic, my savior, my Aladdin", he told her. "WOW. And I thought you were the magic in my life. Tell me the story", she asked. "The day you had come to me and asked for help in decluttering your mind, I was somehow inspired to do magic to your life. My guidances to you were my outpourings of affection. Later I realised that magic was being cast in my life too", he sounded calm and grateful. "Oh. This is the power of unconditional love perhaps", she was touched indeed. The biggest secret of life is magic requires generosity. Only when you become generous enough to cast magic on someone else's life, you find the side effect has been that magic is happening to your own life suddenly. -------------------------------- Never at the surface, Magic lies deep "I have experienced many beautiful aspects of li...

Mini Stories on Wisdom and Life "Noise is your untold story" "Why so much noise is there in my mind? Why my mind is so cluttered with thoughts? I feel as if I am swimming in chaos O' master", she was overwhelmed with clutter of thoughts. "Noise is the untold story. You keep suppressing pain and don't share. You fear becoming vulnerable and people taking undue advantage. You are scared of deeply personal pain getting leaked to unwanted people. All fear and pain has turned into noise and clutter. Noise is nothing but your untold story", master was wise in real sense of the term. She determined to find peace, deep peace which she deserved. She decided to share her untold stories to strangers and closest friends. And thus began her journey to Nirvana...... ------------------------------ Heart to Heart. Mind to Mind "I prefer heart to heart relationships in personal life. But some people use only mind. And some people start with th...
