I made this logo, I really did! a fictional short story by Gaurav Rastogi The Restless Sannyasi Deva Ananda Mishtiqiya was distraught.

Henry David Thoreau wrote, “The bluebird carries the sky on his back”. What did he mean? Photo Credit (link) A small little creature, free and beautiful, blue above and brown below, and living between heaven and earth. Above it, the sky is open to infinite adventure; below, the solid earth offers nourishment and company.

Here’s to the Crazy Ones

Last updated on: February 27, 2023 at 1:07 pm By Gaurav Rastogi

Hope and dreams are the dollars and change of Silicon Valley. ‘Unicorns’ was the name derisively given to startup companies with a Billion Dollar valuation, because they are all too rare and mostly fictional, but not a day goes by these days before someone sights another Unicorn, and the sightings of ‘Deca’horns (companies with $10Bn+ valuation) now considered a common as the corner Starbucks. Mass produced miracles. (This note first appeared in print on India Currents). — In the Yoga system,... Read more

Imagine a career that doesn’t flat-line

Last updated on: February 27, 2023 at 1:09 pm By Gaurav Rastogi

We often hear the words ‘career’ and ‘job’ being used interchangeably. However, the two terms are distinct and the sooner we can tell them apart, the better will be our outlook. A job pays the bills and gives us something to stay busy with. A career, on the other hand, is the story we tell about ourselves today and in the future.
