నా తల్లిదండ్రులు...

అత్యంత దైవభక్తి గలవారు. అటువంటి సరళమైన కానీ మహోన్నతమైన ఆత్మలకు జన్మించడం నా భాగ్యం. నా తండ్రి మీద నాకు ఉన్న ప్రేమని నేను గుర్తించి, వ్యక్తపరచడం మొదలుపెట్టిన తరుణంలోనే ఆయన ఊహించని విధంగా మమ్మల్ని విడిచి వెళ్ళిపోయారు. ఆయన ఉన్నంత కాలం నేను బాధ్యతల గురించి ఎప్పుడూ ఆలోచించలేదు. ఈ రోజు నాలో ఉన్న ప్రతి గుణం, లక్షణం మరియు నేను ఏ స్థితిలో ఉన్నానో, వాటన్నింటికీ వినయపూర్వకంగా ఈ దంపతులనే కారణమని చెబుతాను. వారి పట్ల నాకున్న కృతజ్ఞతను మాటల్లో వర్ణించలేను. తల్లిదండ్రులుగా వారిలో ఉన్న గొప్ప విషయం ఏమిటంటే, మేము పిల్లలుగా ఏమి అవ్వాలి లేదా ఏమి చేయాలి అని వారు ఎప్పుడూ మాపై ఒత్తిడి తీసుకురాలేదు. మాలోని ప్రతిభ సహజంగా వికసించడానికి అవసరమైన వాతావరణాన్ని మాత్రమే వారు కల్పించారు. ప్రణామాలు...

The musical journey....

Read in: English | മലയാളം | தமிழ் | ಕನ್ನಡ | తెలుగు | हिंदी   1982. I was 12 years old then. My interest was in literature during my school days. I won many prizes at the school level, district and state level youth festivals for story writing, versification etc. My mother wanted me to try out my talent in music. She thought some instrument would be a good choice. She very deliberately chose the violin for me because it is very handy and sweet. Summer holidays after my 7th grade started with Carnatic violin lessons with Saraswathy Ammal. She was basically a Veena player who just knew the basic finger techniques for carnatic violin. An year passed. She taught me up till the first Ganesa Geetham 'Srigananatha'. One day when my Amma came to pick me up after the class, the kind teacher told her that I had real talent and interest in music and that I should be taken to a violin teacher since she handles only Veena as her primary instrument. Amma was glad to get the positive feed ba...

omana thinkal kidavo......lulluby sung for my daughter to sleep Just at the age of three-and-a -half she started to catch up with the musical notes I played or sang. She's so playful about it but pitching is quite natural to her. Her interest in music is incredible. She always reminds me to teach her music. If I sing a small song for her to repeat she wants the svara first. In my music classes for other older children, she'll just sit through and listen without disturbing. She has got a beautiful voice and inherent talent. Grateful to you Nandu, to have born as my daughter........... Nandu making her on two minutes maagi noodles. In between she is asking whether it is properly boiled or not.  She likes to be called as Nandootty! Nandootty observes her mom cooking and she wants to try it out all by herself. working  4th b'day  laughter drawing surprised hot sun!  before prayer! naughty happy oh m...

Wedding story.....

Read in: English | മലയാളം | தமிழ் | ಕನ್ನಡ | తెలుగు | हिंदी Read in: English | മലയാളം | தமிழ் | ಕನ್ನಡ | తెలుగు | हिंदी Leading 35 years of unmarried life was a well thought decision. Getting into marriage was also another well thought decision. Probably those were not mere thoughts and perhaps no decisions were made. They just happened on their own accord. Combination of both the experiences added a wide spectrum to my life complementing each part. Being a lone star in life was in many ways a very fulfilling and enriching experience. But always there remained a void that needed to be fulfilled. At a point, life reached a stagnation and there was no more meaning or motivation to move on. Done with the meaningful part of life, now time has come to experience perhaps the meaningless part too to make it a complete whole. After all meaning is what we add to life. Life as such is comprised of neutral experiences. Life is a black and white canvas just consisting of days and nights. We are ...
