Ramakrishna Mission Math, Bangalore

Vivekanandar – an outstanding spiritual word from my childhood. When I was studying 6h std, I used to read his life and legacy. One of the greatest personality, luring me till date. He is not like other monks or sages – to advise people for chanting god’s mantras.

He pointed out people’s weakness and advised to be strong and very bold always. He redefined the meaning ‘god’. His guts and peaceful face attract me whenever I look at his pose. Like wise, there are hundred and more things I like about him. As of I know/read/researched, he was the one to keep ‘Brammacharyam’ life long.

When I was in Chennai, I used to visit Ramakrishna mission math, which was/is in Mylapore. After coming to Bangalore, I often thought of visiting it – then it never happened. Gladly, I happen to know about Ramakrishna Mission Math in Bangalore.



This Sunday evening I went to Ramakrishna Mission Math, which is in Ulsoor, Bangalore.
An unknown peace is lasting in heart, after long time.



Not because, I am visiting temples, or the kinds its because, sitting in a place and reminiscing a great spirit!



He is a brave, bold, but peaceful soul, I ever like to worship.

Ooty trip

I was not sure, whether I would go and be there.. Mood was keep on changing in jiffies. In one midnight, at last, I’ve decided to go and attend my friend’s bro’s marriage reception in Ooty.

It was a big break from regular work. The climate was so cool and going worse further. I was bit shivering, and looking for a coffee shop in every small interval. AccuWeather.com was forecasting the temperature to swing between 10 to 15 degree.

Many times, I have been to here: Botanical Garden, Pykara, Dodabetta. So, this time, we all (my friends) have decided to go to somewhere lonely – a landscape, where you cant really see humans around you.

Cab driver suggested an idea. That’s a trip from Ooty to Kerala border – on the mountain way, covering around 60 Kms. He said that it should be a quite different journey, as we wished – visiting human less landscape!

We all agreed and journey started. All the way around the road, we were seeing only Tea estates. It was really different, really. Density of people was decreasing, at some point, no body hit at eye sight – I realized we had gone unreachable!

On the way, there was a view point. It was so terrific than suicide point view in Kodaikanal. I was just looking down and searching for the foot hill. It was deep, very deep, indeed. Midst was playing around – it was just crossing us, covering us, hiding us, showering at us!

There were few people, used to live on the roadway. I don’t think they all were well educated and have exposure to dangerous things like computer and internet. I am pretty sure, they still don’t know about java and its history – they were looking happy, frankly happy. My mind went on comparing my life with theirs and both were like South and North Pole. I often think this computer life is just a virtual life. If somebody can ask me how I make my livings, then I will have to answer: “Java” and yet ‘J2EE’. But, both don’t exist in the world really. People could have seen God or Ghost, but no body have seen Java! That’s virtual! Something that doesn’t exist physically, but, lots of things happen because of that! Virtual life, Ice cream life, that I live.

It was evening 6’o clock when we returned.

The next day, I went alone to Botanical garden. It was an evening. Two years back, we were here -- all my classmates. We were sitting in the same grass land, playing an unknown game. I was standing alone and reminiscing everything. I don’t know exactly where every one is now. Now, it is just a history.

Ooty to Kerala -- hill way

Tea Estate -- on the way

Colorful Tea estate..

Small stream...

Botanical Garden

Coffee, everywhere, anytime..


Two years ago memories -- now history!

Pet project

I was running in irritation since last few weeks. I gotta code hell a lot of things in java. Officially & Personally. Life was stuffed with full of NullPointerException and clueless traps in programs.

Also, using all my free times, I've developed a pet project, for personal use. It is a stock analyzer -- loads stock data daily from internet and helps to do complex cross queries over the stored data. Carefully developed it, keeping in mind that, any mindless barbarian should be able to understand the source code. I often used to read best practices/design/principles in coding & developing softwares. But, I never got time (or) chance to apply all those magics. So, I took this pet project as a chance for everything. I had almost lost my mind in thinking better, better, the better design round the clock - there were might nights, when I was thinking why PrintWriter is not appendable in java 1.4 !. Every single variable is designed carefully.

She helped a lot on this. She coded parser & data loader parts. I didn’t know how much time she caught headache. Thanks a lot for her, her work & interest. [She = Jeya]

The first drop of the project is here: http://sab-archer.sourceforge.net I've licensed it under CPL2.0. ('free download & modify the source, as you wish!'). I dont have energy to spend time on it any more. I am looking forward some interested people to join it. Let' see how far it happens.
