Finally a "Golden Sindhu."

Ace badminton star P V Sindhu at last broke the 'final jinx' to adorn the gold medal in the world championship. This time she defeated her rival so convincingly that the final score read 21-7, 21-7. Her achievement is a lesson in perseverance and never say die attitude.

As Saina Nehwal broke the glass ceiling to prove Indian women power on the world badminton stage, Sindhu corroborated it today with her gold winning effort.
Hope this should usher in a new era in Indian women's badminton.

As it is said in cricket Dravid was known for his supreme technique but never created a fear in the opposition bowler. On the other hand when Sachin was at the crease opposition bowlers feared, such was his dominance. In my view similar is the case with Saina and Sindhu. Saina may be technically an excellent player but Sindhu on the court creates fear in her rival. On her day she can destroy any opposition.

As Modiji ascribed his 2019 electrol victory saying 'E Savasso Carode Bhartiya Ka Jeet Hai'. So is Sindhu's today's victory is the victory of all Indians.  We wish she would continue her winning streak to make Indian flag flutter at the ensuing 'Tokyo Olympics' by occupying Pole position on the podium.

A Tribute to a Political Saint

19th century spiritual Narendra (Swamiji) and 21st century political Narendra (Modiji).

It has been for some time whenever the thought of political Narendra occurred in my mind unconsciously it jumped in drawing a parallel to the 19th century spiritual Narendra. Today it gave a vent to its pent up feelings.

It  can easily be drawn a comparative portrayal of two greatest sons (saints) of India (one is spiritual and the other political) who have mesmerized the collective consciousness of ordinary Indian citizen with their extraordinary rectitude and selfless service. Both have took the world by storm with their magnetic and mercurial personalities.

Both have proved their manliness with an  utter disregard for worldly pleasures. Being   in the midst of world still untouched by its enticements. Both are epitome of what simple and pure mind and selfless attitude can be an inexhaustible source of perrinnial energy and inner source of strength.

Aphorisms of spiritual Narendra are well known that it's not all if one is confined to his Pooja room worshipping god for his salvation and gave a new definition that one can attain salvation in the service of poor and needy. In a path breaking way, he  told atheist is not the one who does not believe in God but the one who doesn't believe in himself. In all his efforts, he tried educating the ordinary mass in understanding the greatness of mother India and thereby lifting the morale of countrymen.

When the the Indian political landscape was and has been infested with venemous self serving demons in the robes of public servants with the only intention of serving their personal ends at the cost of country,  there emerged a hope in the form political Narendra assuring despondent Indians that      'Acche Din Aagayahe' and rest assured them that they are in safe hands.

His 2014 political victory surprised many. And even hard nosed political pundits who predicted hung parliament had to bite the dust. And the 2019 victory more than anything is a proof enough of his power of goodness.

It is well known that the heroics of spiritual Narendra casting his spell on the world with his diminutive and luminous devine personality.

But it has always been intriguing for me as to why the whole world is going 'gaga' with political Narendra? An old man nearing his seventies with his beard and grey hair not even a very handsome personality for people to go crazy after him. He is not even the prime minister of the most powerful country in the world. If for all his good work, people of his own country would appreciate him is the norm.

Then why is that the whole world love and admire him? As an ordinary man, I think he is not just run of the mill politician who has come as a succor in the distressed time. In my view, he is a saint in the form of politician. That's why the world loves him and salutes him.
