Reflections !



Reflections tells who we are. In everyday life we manipulate things around us to suit our needs and interests. For different people, different 'person' we become ! 

However given solitude, we are in our most natural self. We can't hide our thoughts. We know what is right and what is not. We know who we are. 

This is enlightenment. One who experience the true self of himself in reflections is Buddha.


In Focus: Reflection of a middle aged man on mirror of a bike. He is noticing something, probably me, focusing camera on mirror of the bike. Apparently not happy with this, his reaction is dramatic, pushing his chin up making his upper lip touch his nose !

Shot at  Sri Dharmanatha Shwetambar Jain Temple, 4th Block Jayanagar, Bangalore, INDIA on 11/Jan/2014 as part of the photowalk. 

And here is a song for the model in frame above !

God's Gate Keeper

   In Frame : Rani. Do we need to say who she is ? Rani is the elephant at Manarkul Vinayagar Temple at Pondicherry (Pondy) whom one can see the entrance of the temple. She has been trained to shower blessings on devotees who offer her money and eatables especially banana. On festivals she is beautifully decorated with colorful usually red and golden yellow robes and cloth sheets and carries the idols of Lord Ganesha along with the religious processions which passes through prominent streets of Pondy notable among them is JN Sreat and MG Road. Clicked in Aug 2008 at Manarkul Temple, Pondy during my first visit to the temple.

Change Agents In Our Society

Did you share yourself today ? Times Life : 2 May, 2010-05-18 In this artcle Indrani Rajkhowa Banerjee brings into life a very inspiring account of ordinary people who are amazingly trying to create a difference in lives of those to whom small things we never care of can bring a lot of difference. Consider few instance, taken from the said article and other sources: Someone in Mumbai distributes footwear at traffic signals to barefoot people, another man collects the leftover food at weddings to feed hungry kids, in Delhi a gentleman distributes drinking water in shanties of west Delhi, another person never leaves home without packets of glucose biscuits for poor kids, a young journalist instead of visiting church every sunday religiously visits nearby home for aged people and spends her time with them………… A guy collects rickety and torn out bicycles and repairs them and gives them to school kids who otherwise would have dropped as parents are reluctant to send kids far away to schoo...
