🌿 Breathe with the Rain: A Journey to Inner Stillness In the sacred hush of a rain-soaked forest, time seems to exhale. This serene video— a blend of gentle rain sounds and the peaceful gaze of a moss-covered Buddha —offers more than just meditation music. It is an invitation to return to yourself . A sanctuary where the world fades, and only the rhythm of nature and your breath remain. Whether you're seeking focus, healing, or simply a quiet pause in a noisy world—this is your moment. Let it wash over you.  

The Royal Riddle of Jaipur’s Budhi Teej”

Budhi Teej Festival : Pink City Jaipur Rain Festival  When Elephants Walk and Rain Gods Watch...... Welcome to Jaipur, Rajasthan  — the city where buildings are pink, history is gold, and festivals are extra spicy, just like their snacks. If you think festivals are just about balloons and cupcakes, hold tight. Because Budhi Teej (yes, "Old Teej" — no Botox required) is here to redefine what it means to party like it’s 1727 . 🎉  Budhi Teej Festival -  A Festival So Old, from Grandma days. Budhi Teej isn’t your average “let’s dance and take selfies” affair.  No, no — this one has royal swag, weather negotiations, camels with eyeliner, and a procession so glamorous, even Versailles would look like a budget affair. It dates back to the 18th century , during the era when Jaipur was still learning how to say “Google Maps”. It’s celebrated in the month of Shravan (July/August) and marks the reunion of Goddess Parvati with Lord Shiva — a story so romantic, Netfli...

Someone just spilled Red Bull on the switchboard. The Wi-Fi is down. HR is panicking. And yet… he remains calm. That, dear reader, is your System Administrator . And today, we pretend to care for him 🧔 The Legend of Ted Kekatos: The Sysadmin Who Dared to Dream Let’s rewind to 1999 — the year we thought Y2K would destroy us and Backstreet Boys ruled the airwaves. Amid all this, one brave American sysadmin named Ted Kekatos looked at a Hewlett-Packard ad — where a sysadmin was being praised and gifted for installing printers — and thought: “Wow… must be nice to be in a parallel universe.” So Ted did what all underappreciated heroes do —...

 29th July : International Tiger Day Because  the tiger deserves more than just being a logo on your sports drink...... “Thanks for coming. I used to rule continents.  Now I’m a punchline in your ‘save the planet’ memes.  You bulldozed my home, fenced my path, sold my whiskers...... and now you want a selfie when you see me?  No thank you. I’m on strike.”  Once Upon a Jungle… Let’s rewind to the early 1900's . India had more than 40,000 tigers roaming our lush forests like VIPs in a private club. Global numbers? Over 100,000 . Tigers were literally the Bigg Boss of the jungle. No eviction, no voting, just pure royal attitude. Fast forward to today We have fewer than 4,000 tigers left in the wild. That’s less than the number of Instagram reels a Del hi influencer posts in a week. T he Rise and Fall of the Striped Royalty Once the undisputed rulers of the jungle,  wild tigers had swagger, silence, and the kind...
