Difference between a Yes Man and a Leader

Last updated on: December 27, 2012 at 6:08 pm By Desh Kapoor

A ‘yes man’ is a dangerous man. He may rise very high, he might even become the Managing Director of a company. He may do anything but he can never make a leader because he will be used by his superiors, disliked by his colleagues and despised by his subordinates. So shallow– the ‘yes man’. – First Indian Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw Read more

Prisoners of Conscience, a movie – from the years of Emergency in India in 1975

Last updated on: December 27, 2012 at 5:33 pm By Desh Kapoor

Today, the country is again seeing a repeat of the emergency – albeit, undeclared one. The mediamen and women are crawling again, when asked to bend – as the famous saying went during that time in 1975. Here is a flashback to that era of political prisoners, which again seem to be a reality. (Hat tip: Saptarshi Ghosh) Now watch and read on. June 26, 1975 is remembered as a black day for Indian democracy. On this day, 36... Read more

Greater Jwala Hindu Temple near Baku, Azherbaijan has Sanskrit and Punjabi inscriptions

Last updated on: December 27, 2012 at 12:53 pm By Desh Kapoor

The influence of Hinduism beyond the normal borders of India has been well known. Here is an inscription from the “Fire Temple”in the Surakhani town of Azherbaijan. It is in the suburb of the capital Baku. The inscription here clearly starts with श्री गणेसाय नम: Atesh in Persian means Fire, and Gah means bed. This area was over a natural gas – which has since been exhausted, and since natural fires would start over the natural gas crevices, it had... Read more

Important lesson for India from Sweden, the World’s Rape Capital (30 times more rapes a year than India)!

Last updated on: December 26, 2012 at 11:18 pm By Desh Kapoor

Sweden recorded 63 rapes per 100,000 inhabitants this year. That was 30 times that of India (2 per 100,000 inhabitants). Compared to India, Sweden must be the worst when it comes to safety of women. Not just unsafe, but 30 times unsafe! Right? And what was that talk of having open attitudes of men towards nudity and women all about? Scandinavian countries have the most liberated women in terms of their decision making and freedom of expression and life. So... Read more

Jesus was born in Bethelehem, but NOT the one near Jerusalem

Last updated on: December 26, 2012 at 9:51 pm By Desh Kapoor

Was Jesus born in Bethelehem? A new study and archeological find says yes and no. Yes, he was born in Bethelehem, but not the one where the Christians flock to, like they did this Christmas. Many things are in favor of this new place that has been found by an Israeli archeologist. About 100 miles north of where the pilgrims gathered, shepherds still guide their flocks through green unspoiled hills, and few give notice to the tucked-away village with the... Read more
