Dearer than Lapis Lazuli

I always wondered why every wedding anniversary were linked to some theme, why 32nd was left out from the list. Though loosely I have heard of it being linked to Transport (rightfully so), maybe it was left for me to fill in on this amazing milestone. Spoke to a NRI friend who explained why it was linked to Transport – his take was that if some pair has stayed married for 32 years (in that part of the world, 32 month is considered a record period) it is to convey as an example that this journey of 32 revolutions of the Sun together has been navigated successfully, through the roughs and troughs, through joy and sadness, through challenges and bliss – all dealt with successfully TOGETHER

Happy 32nd Wedding Anniversary to us

Not that I need any special linkage to be grateful to Aparna who has been a married companion for 32 long years (for her). You know something, of all the fishes in the Ocean, I am glad I caught you (not my original saying, but heard this in a different context from someone)

Proud and Extremely Happy Grandparents celebrating the 32nd with Apple of our Eyes

Dearest Aparna,
Thank you for giving me the love that I cannot live without. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and to everyone who is part of our lives (Check with them and they would agree with me completely). One of our Manasik Daughter asked us, if you were to pick up the best moment of these 32 years, I had to go back to my memory….errrrr… my Maths to work that out. The best moment was not just one but 1,009,152,000 (Someone can figure out the significance of this number). It is not for this tribute blog but for real. It has been such an amazing journey of blissful togetherness.

We also had a word of caution to her. Like in anything in the world or in any relationship “We worked to make it work” Cordiality and bliss in Every relationhip is free but not a gift. I have to confess that she shared significantly part of that work than me. It is not being the jolly, naughty, laughing and freaking couple all the time.

We as family had our shares of Challenges and what made it work was her “calming” presence. Divya and Vishnu tell me, I am lying when I use the adjective calming – she gets flustered even when the boat is slightly rocked. But I say her presence was real – constant support and inspiration to everyone and reassuring that we will surmount it and Thanks to the Divine – we did it successfully each time. She was always around, looking over our shoulders, telling us never to give up and we will sail through.

If Divine were to give a chance to change something from 31st March 1991 and relive the past 32 years, (I wish He really offered it), you know what! Wait Wait, Don’t Celebrate – I am not going to let go even in imagination, I would do exactly what I did that day all over again and live the 32 years excatly the same way.

Looking eye to eye (for a change)

Here is to another year of growing closer and sticking together throughout our lives. Cheers to yet another year of growing strong together.

The NRI friend also suggested to gift Lapis Lazuli on this occasion, which in all humility I welcome and accept from Aparna or anyone else. Please keep this coming.

Lapis Lazuli – Gemstone associated with 32nd Anniversary
From all of us to the Anchor of our Lives. Thank you Aparna

What else? A friend like no one else. Here is the song dedicated to you

India will not break – Trust RSS

Yet another contributory article from Adv Anil Kappilil ji a practicing lawyer from Kochi. who has written a great piece, a real tribute as an Proud Indian. I agree with him 100% on each word he writes here. Here we go in his own words

It is always about Bharat Mata Swayamsevak

To begin with, let me make it clear that am not an RSS karyakarta or a member of any political party. I am proud to be a nationalist Hindu.

After getting political independence in 1947, there were several attempts to break India both from within and abroad. The first among them was the partition of India. The decades-long Congress rule accelerated and colluded in the efforts that witnessed not only breaking India geographically, financially, morally, philosophically and politically but also civilizationally. Because Congress had no vision other than power and loot inherited from their foreign predecessors.

So what and who enabled India to resist the attacks and catastrophic fall of the greatest nation? The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and the Hindutva ideology.

Pujyaneeya Sarsanghchala Mohanji Bhagwat – Vijayadashami Celebrations

None can break India because RSS is there. None can break RSS because of its core philosophy is Bharateeyata and Hindutva. And because every Karyakartha is self-driven swayamsevak and Pujyaneeya Sarsanghchalak is a Karyakarta of Sangha first and from top to bottom they enjoy the same responsibility and authority. RSS is like Sanatana Dharma which just exist and a way of life. No one can define it in a simple manner. Every Swayamsevak is highly disciplined and committed in every walk of their life dedicated to the cause of Bharat Mata and Dharma

The Discipline and Unity of Purpose – starts with small things like this

A careful scrutiny of the policies and legislations made during the Congress rule would reveal that they followed the British dogma of divide and rule India. While Congress reduced itself to a family organization of Nehru family RSS has grown itself as the largest Hindu Undivided Family Conglomerate revered and respected, accepted and assimilated by global polity.

RSS has global presence and it is more powerful and omnipresent than all super powers of the world. The political dwarfs cannot comprehend the might of RSS and their rhetorical barks are nothing but akin to weak howling of jackals at the full moon.!

When I say Hindutva I mean not the superficial definition of being known as a Hindu in birth certificate. Hindu is the one who is born to Dharmic couples and nurtured and nourished by dharmic values and practices them in life. Any person whose birth in any way of life or religion can become a true Hindu only when he practises a life that is predicated in various paths of Hindu dharma. But no person who is born to parents having Hindu names can be a true Hindu because he doesn’t practice Hindu dharma. Communists are not Hindus even though their names may suggest so. So are those who dont feel pride in calling Bharat as their mother land and respect her as Bharat Mata. Religious bigots have no place in this holy soil except for their burial and the epic stories have confirmed the perilous end of Ravans and other demonic characters. Remember, Hindu dharmma is the only civilization that allows anyone to be a non believer in God and yet be Hindu. Charvaka is treated on par with and revered as a great sage in Hindu dharma.

Confrontation through physical force is not the Hindutva way of dealing with adversaries. But it has the most poweful means of consolidation of any threat to the civilization. The Yogis are not ordinary mortals. The seven sages in the sky control even the umpteen number of galaxies.

India is unbreakable. Those who try to break or weaken this phenomenon, will get destroyed and erased completely. Because Karma is indestructible. RSS is indestructible because its foundation is for the good karma.

  • By Adv Anilkumar Kappillil
India and Indians are Safe – Trust a Swayamsevak

Disqualified – by Court

The text as received from Adv Shri Anil Kumar Kappilil, a practicing lawyer from Kochi. Who is responsible for Rahul Gandhi‘s disqualification? Not Narendra Modi ji, not Judiciary, not BJP.

It is CONgress and only CONgress which is squarely responsible .

The Only Truth on his Twitter account

CONgress knew that Rahul is a political liability. They encouraged him to speak utter nonsense against anything & anyone. Lacking common sense & good judgement they knew he would utter nonsense and one day land himself in trouble.

Extinct CONgress means end of career politricksters who once thrived during CONgress rule. They knew Rahul cannot be removed, sacrilege to even think removal of CONgress supremo Sonia’s son and with him around, it was certain that 2024 is the END!

This could well be their sinister plan to fix the thorn in the CONgress neck by sending him to jail and bank on sympathy for the party. It is not new for CONgress – in the past has successfully executed various unscrupulous strategies to grab power.

The cause and reasons for the assassinations of Rahul’s father and paternal grandma still remain unknown. But the effect we saw in both incidents is that they brought the Congress party back to power when it was almost got extinct.

Disqualification from Parliament in view of conviction in a criminal case for defamation is not political but legal issue. He should introspect that current hullabaloo of his party against Government is not going to go down well with people of India.

Clearly , Action as a result of a legal order

Some Congress leaders, kitchen cabinet of Sonia has portrayed Rahul as political incompetent systematically over time. Same coterie did to Rajiv in Bofors scam & IPKF that failed in Sri Lanka. Rajiv was nothing less than a politically naive person.

She should have completed this – A rap on his skull

Sonia and Rahul must be wary about the sinister games of the charlatans in their own party and the rants against Modi government are not going to get them back anywhere near to power again

Why is Sonia not realising this?

1. Sonia is not Indian culturally & emotionally to understand Indian political dharma sutras of Chanakya. Politics of Dharma is the core Indian Psyche and it is powerfully embedded in Indian culture and civilization.

2. She has no knowledge of the language of the majority Indians. Reading a scripted text has no emotional involvement which is exposed.

Inability to read Indian Pulse

3. Trust deficit. Sonia and her family that has made Congress a private enterprise has lost trust of Voters.

4. Out of 150 crore Indians, almost 130 support Narendra Modi because He speaks his heart extempore (and some think Teleprompters make one so talented to make such passionate presentation) followed by concrete actions.

And People are still searching for a Teleprompter – If you heard this address in Ayodhya, any True Hindu would know

Yes. Political illiteracy and sheer incompetence of Sonia & Co is no alternative for a leaping lion like India. People knew it a decade ago. And even your one time close aide Chiddu endorsed it too recently

India is Bharat and a Hindu Rashtra. More emotionally intelligent and competent than all super powers put together.
