            The mystery of universe is indeterminable to the noesis of common man. Even so, based on the levels of one's reflective analysis; multiple theories on the origin of universe and life on earth has been asserted. Developments in atomic science has ascertained homogeneity of every entity at the sub-atomic level. The results arrived through scientific research is found to extol the propositions of Sanathana Dharma. Still, the fact remains that the posits of Sanathana Dharma transcends the reach and dimensions of scientism.

            The sole objective of every human activity is to secure peace. Irrespective of the activities decreed, the purpose of any religion is to steer the human mind to rest in peace. Peace is a state when the mind is subdued and eventually dissolved due to devoid of desire. The duple substratum of desire is perception of duality and the thought of performance. As long as the mind perceives another object, the seed to emotions is sown. Peace is unattainable up to a time the mind oscillates amidst feelings of sorts.      

            Among the multitude of religions that prevail, the gravity of Sanathana Dharma is in its ability and practicality to dismiss the human mind from external stimuli in a phased manner. The consequential perception of the vacuousness of materialistic pursuits grants absoluteness in attitude, articulation and actions. Absoluteness is the singular quality that bestows inaction in action; hence eternal peace. Sanathana Dharma has asserted two succeeding levels of psychological maturity to peace.

            The penultimate stage is termed as the "Maarjhaala Kishore Nyaaya"; wherein the attitude of the sadhaka is akin to the instinctive nature of an infant cat. The assertion is to remain psychologically detached from every human effort and opine each experience as divine blessing; irrespective of materialistic results. Just like the effortless nature of a baby cat, when the sadhaka repudiates one's experience and efforts, gains tranquillity. Psychologically, though actions are performed through the sadhaka, mind remains aloof.

            The substratum of such a psychological disposition is the clarity in thought that every activity is as ordained by the divine; hence free will and emotions arising out of attachment to circumstance is an illusion. The detachment gained thus stabilises the mind on the activities to be performed as one's duty. However, since the severity in spirit is unfeasible to the common man doused in the thought of performance and possession; the Sanathana Dharma has asseverated a stepping stone – the "Markadaga Kishore Nyaaya".

            The elegance of Sanathana Dharma is in its sensitivity and compassion to empathise with the psychologically immature sadhaka overpowered by the sense of performance and possession. Hence the dictum of rituals and activities aim to manoeuvre the mind towards the various forms of the divine. The attitude, articulation and actions that revolve around the thoughts of the divine, owing to the acknowledged supremacy of the deity adored subdue the mind, maturing to the "Maarjhaala Kishore Nyaaya".

            The averment of the rituals and prayers as decreed by Sanathana Dharma that aim to demand the grace of the divine canopied under the "Markadaga Kishore Nyaaya" slakes the mind due to the psychological displacement of anxiety to the celestial. The objective of this philosophy is to clasp one's mind on the divine as firm as the natural grip of a monkey. However, in reality the human mind is akin to the nature of a monkey on all materialistic aspects, except clinging on to the divine.

            The immaturity of the sadhaka; to remain steadfast on the ultimate truth – Adwaitham, to perceive every incident and accident as an enactment of the universal singleton, due to the provoking thought of performance and possession; and the inability to decoct and manoeuvre one's mind exclusively on the celestial, has generated the need to an alternative route to salvation. The benevolence of Guru is the link of compassion between the aeonian pronouncement of Sanathana Dharma and the envisaging escapist attitude of the sadhaka.

            The external similarities in the human form of the divine as Guru, establishes a profound link with the ideating sadhaka to influence and initiate on the righteous path to salvation. It was at one such eventful moment in the history of the human race; did the universal Guru – Sri Adisankara appeared to prehend the rapscallion mentality of the escapist sadhaka immersed in wishful thinking. The result is a splendid orison invoking the blessing and beneficence of the divine.

            Just as the dictum of Sanathana Dharma – the "Markadaga Kishore Nyaaya", Sri Adisankara accepts the vacillating human mind to resemble an infant monkey. Even so, citing the expression of the divine form – Lord Shiva – a Brahmin who begs for alms; alludes to appear as monkey charmer! The GURU creates a symbiotic relationship between the human mind that vacillates like a monkey capable of domestication by the divine grace alone; and concurrently escalates the stature of Lord Shiva to smoothie than a mooch!

            The inherent profound inference is the fact that even the occurrence of the thought on the celestial is dependent on the grace of the divine. Hence free will is negated in totality. Either the ability to remain a detached spectator to the incidents in one's life journey as the game of the divine, or the belief in engaging efforts to secure the divine grace; is a mere reflection of the benignity of the divine. When the mind subsides; fate appears to guide, hence peace; else fate appears to coerce, hence trauma. Fate reigns.

            The postulate of Sanathana Dharma is a predetermined chain of events, as the frolic activity of the divine. The other life forms are designed to lack reason; hence act on instinct or remain dormant to development. The experience of psychological peace or pressure by a human is due to the presence of intellect. However, depending on the direction of flow and application – peace when directed inwards to realise the cosmic caper of the universal singleton; else trauma when exerted externally to examine and experiment materialism.  

            The primary route to redemption is the perception of Adwaitham, unimaginable to every common man. The secondary route to salvation is to situate one's focus and functionality firmly on the divine – an impractical totalisation. Supplication of the celestial to nest and nuzzle one's thoughts and actions on the divine ensures present practical possibility – the ternion salvage!

            The mystery of this universe is unfathomable through rational analysis. Human intellect is ever enervated in extricating the enigma enveloping the egression of life. However, cognition on the origin of life and its consociated conundrum has always been available amidst humans in the form of the Veda. The crowning annunciation of the Veda is Adwaitham – the singularity of the Aathma that permeates every animate and inanimate entity of the universe.

            The practical application of the Veda is the focus of the Dharmasastras. The cognitive content of the Dharmasastras is to curtail the skiving temperament of the mind towards sensual pursuits. The result is the attainment of psychological steadiness termed moderation. Attaining moderation in attitude, articulation and action is the vital link that connects the known materialistic worldly experience called Dwaitham and the unknown ultimate termed Adwaitham; the eternal substratum.

            The ability to reason is the prime factor of differentiation that hails the supremacy of humans over any other life form. However, it is the sole thriving medium for the perplexity in antagonistic recalcitration between the theists and atheists. Hence the evidence that substantiates the colossal maltreatment to a vital calibre of humans. The progress of developments in scientific research has opened the doors to cogent evidence that manifests the sensibility inherent in religious activities, effectively minimising the prevailing conflict.

            For instance, when people with scientific temper considered the universe a flat plate; Maharishis have always professed that the creator of this universe is termed "Brahma"; and the product created by him is "Brahmaand" indicating that the universe is elliptical, like an egg. Also, when scientific episteme considered that it was the Sun that revolves the Earth, the postulate of Maharishis the "Gaurava – Laagava Nyaaya" envisions Sun and Earth in the Guru – Shishya relationship; hence it is the latter that revolves around the former.

            Such significations sensibilise that the abilities acquired by humans through reasoning and rational reductionism must be exercised and enforced with respect and regard to the Veda. Factually, the Veda transcends every religion. The popular belief of Sanskrit being the language of the Veda is erroneous. The Veda is a collection of sound in a systematic format called "Chandas". Chandas is a terminology that indicates a measurement of sound – Metre. Chandas is the source of the language – Sanskrit.

            It hence can be extrapolated that sound is the educated emanation of the entire existence. Decrypting the sound in its own course towards source point is the purpose of the Veda. Dharmasastras aim to qualify the human body, mind and intellect to effectively handle the Veda. The idea of containing the Veda as belonging to a specific religious belief is incorrect and neritic. For instance, the practice of circumambulating deity in temples is a conscious replication of human's significant subconscious activity.

            Every entity on this planet irrespective of religion and/or level of cognition, circumambulates the Sun subliminally. Even the calculation of one's age, whether theist or atheist; is a mere count of such circumambulations! The essence of the Rig Veda can be inferred as hailing the supremacy of "Agni"; as, the beginning and conclusion of Rig Veda refers to "Agni". The gross visible "Agni" is the ball of fire – the Sun! The wisdom on the impermanency of materialism is the subtle "Agni" that cauterises desire in one's mind.

            The religious practice of "Aathmapradhakshinam" performed during the conclusion of worshipping any deity is the facsimile of the axial gyration of the planet Earth that we have inhabited; hence a subconscious act of every human! The practice of Sarvaangapradhakshinam in temples, is a conscious combination depicting the rotation and revolution of the planet Earth around an influencing object – the Sun. The concept of destiny that nullifies every human effort evidences the fact that the rotation and revolution of planet Earth is executed and sustained by the gravitational pull of the Sun!

            Limiting the Veda as belonging to a specific religion and the denouncement of an ultimate source termed 'God' is an act of infantilism. The intellectual development of humans is a contrivance that must adhere to appropriate methods of implementation to remain welcome and utile. The Dharmasastras describe an omnium-gatherum of life forms associated with the divine; however, the status of explicit divinity is accorded to two specific beings – the cow and the elephant. Scientific and rational analysis of the beings – cow and elephant with regard to the Veda and the Dharmasastras indicate their supreme qualities that must be imbibed and utilised for human welfare in an apposite manner.

            The versatility of the elephant to lift huge objects as well as miniscule stuff marks its uniqueness. Being a vegetarian, devouring discarded dry twigs; despite its somatic strength and retentive abilities, the disposition of the elephant to remain convivial, authenticates its divinity. The excreta of every living being emanates foul odour, except the cow dung. The antiseptic properties of ash obtained from dung is proven. The smoke that emanates out of incinerating cow dung along with ghee has the ability to circumvent the harmful radioactive emissions; larger the benefit when accompanied by Chandas.

            Owing to its nativity and indigenous availability, the gaseous fuel obtained from bovine dung is an excellent replacement to the imported petroleum based energy. The milk obtained from purebred native cows of India termed A2 milk, finds similarity to human milk; hence nutritious; unlike the yield of hybrid cows. It is reported that the compost manure prepared from the dung provided by a single bovine animal is sufficient to nourish at least quartette acre of dry land. The demand for providing such a utility is the stubble that is otherwise discarded waste.

            The dung and urine of cow are integral elements assisting the process of ayurvedic preparations. Economically, the amount of dung obtained from one bovine upon desiccation is fuel equivalent of wood from sextuplet hulky trees. Hence the proper focus of utilising dung is in preserving the green cover of the Earth. Butchering the bovine for its flesh and skin; than utilising the dung provided aplenty 'womb-to-tomb' that preserves forest; is an anserine act.

            It is an age old practice of cleaning utensils with the eco-friendly ash of cow dung than the high-priced synthetic detergents. India has always remained and identified as a source of spirituality to the entire world. The essence of spirituality is humility that bestows the ability to live in peace and harmony with every living being. The technological developments in India must adhere to the utilisation of its natural resources in a sensible manner amicable to every other live entity.

            Managing Balance of Payments, and aiming surplus in exports; lacking focus and efforts to sustain the spiritual spine of India would effectually exterminate the soul of the world. Concisely, the issue is neither the call of a single religion and its followers; nor addressing the demand for a specific product in the world market aiming the nation's economic prosperity; rather validating the sensitivity of humans in their abilities to ratify decisions and activities that vouches sensible derivation of value and utilities, which in course furthers amity among every living being – not just humans.

Unless and until the value of value is valued; sensible and sustained progress is inconceivable!

            The volition of mankind to categorize good from evil; and the incisive ability to precise communication are the bivalent bedrock upon which has luxuriated the human race. The accompaniment is the knack to utilise the assets and abilities as tools to development that has guaranteed exceptional efflorescence and edification. The denouement is the blossoming of each individual as a powerhouse with a potpourri of skills and expertise to be utilised for the constructive development and progress of humanity.

            The deep-seated inimitable quality that secerns man from every other life form on earth is the facility to communication propelled by a legion of languages. However, it is the incontrovertible dictum of nature that any merit transmogrifies antagonistic to purpose upon traversing the sensible limits. Communication as a tool to development, through exchange of estimations and experience, to benefit the entire human race gets tweaked upon cavalier conduct and misuse.

            The activities and attempts of every ordinary human is propelled by senses and sensual pleasures. The extraneous flow of senses coupled with the innate impulse to lethargy and leisure has a sacrilegious shock on the rational and ethical stature of human activities. The result is communication among people being ripped off its morale; which, twinned with the extraneous flow of senses transmutes as idle and irresponsible confabulation and palaver on every unconcerned aspect.         

            The maunder conversations that sans obligation and objective is innocuous as long as the subject of discussion is value neutral. However, the expense of time and energy spent in vagabond natter results in the loss of utile man hours and productivity. Ever since the sophistication of communication among humans, vagrant schmoose has remained a tool to socialisation and acculturation. The exchange of sentiments and suasions within an unceremonious assemblage elevates the disposition of the psychologically subjugated.

              Tarradiddle is a seditious and subversive form of attack by the debile and decrepit on the ceremoniously accomplished. Inherently democratic; motivated by malice and fury of impotence, building muscle upon the power of information is salacious barren gratification rollicked at the expense of the productive and prosperous. Psychologically, communed dissident whimsy on those in absentia might seem to aid social bonding; however it is the credibility of the parties involved that is sacrificed.

            In an organisation, causerie among employees is an indication of failure of corporate governance initiatives and lack of an integrated, structured, open communication channel. The evident aftermath of chin-wagging is the breakdown of trust in the minds of the employees to function as a team ensuring productivity, and also on the precepts of the management. The resultant conflicts and its associated arbitrations would chew up the productive man-hours of workforce; creating an environment of stress and ambiguity.

            However, history evidence an interesting element of utility in the origin of tattletale; as an effective attention grabber of the lady undergoing the trauma of child-birth. Also, the claver among people on one's experience in a company's product or service has a decisive and critical impact on demand; irrespective and immaterial of the product specifications or services. In short, chaffer on people or products is a kind of storyline which in its naïve form is a link between cause and consequence.

            The impracticality of scrapping story-mongering among people owing to their natural instincts; the Dharmasastras have effectively channelised this obstinacy with structured narration of tales on the divine. Moreover, every religion cautions people to refrain from gabbing - the eight fold path to enlightenment in Buddhism warns that gossip is contrary to the concept of right speech. So is the case with Islamic texts too that forbid man from dishing. The following quotes from the Bible are instances that proscribe humans from jawing -

“You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people.” - Leviticus 19:16

“An ungodly man digs up evil, and it is on his lips like a burning fire.” - Proverbs 16:27

“The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly” - Proverbs 18:8

“If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless” - James 1:26

"For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." - Matthew 12:36

            The prima facie attraction for media gossip; and sensationalistic press is the inherent entertainment factor propelled by curiosity evoked to ensure survival; belies ethics, morals and principles; hence cheap. However, biographies on eminent personalities though deal with their personal life are esteemed, as the narratives are corroborated with hard facts and substantial evidence. The general illation on hoi polloi committing to idle talk is the acceptance of one's inability to induce motivating consultations that rely on cognition.

            In any case, being the subject or participant of chaffering effaces productivity and sensibility. The preeminent technique to avoid gossipmongers is engaging oneself in creative absorptions that would enhance the professional and/or the personal self. Developing the practice and custom of conversations based on authenticity and factuality would annihilate the interest of the tattler. Besides, exfoliating an atmosphere of positive attitude and temperament would result in a natural cessation of vicious causerie.

            The lack of rationale in divulging unnecessary and gratuitous information on one's own personal or contained events is the thriving medium of scuttlebutt. Hence limiting conversations based on essentiality is prudence. An ethical culture and transparent forum of communication would ensure the eradication of vaunting and deplorable idle talk in an organisation. Implementing a transpicuous and scientific method of evaluating professionals based on documentary evidence of performance would obliterate furphy.

            In conclusion, owing to the ubiquitous stature of gossip and the natural tendency of humans to tittle-tattle; the act and focus of the sagacious and sapient is to trivialize shooting the breeze to the extent possible. Long live Gossip - the invincible otiose art!

            Planet earth has witnessed multitude variety of life forms even before the existence of humans. The phenomenal success of humans in achieving rapid development, evolution and edification could not be met by any other. The ability of man to unite and function as a huddle is the unique substratum of refinement. Propelled by the incisive ability to precise communication, the fundamental attribute is the focus to create value for the entire team. Distinguished efforts of man along this sphere of activity are now termed Personal Branding.

            The primal requisite to any effort on personal branding is the psychological aptness to consecrate the resources within one’s reach and command in the betterment of others. Contemplated efforts to position one’s professional and personal self as unique as possible in the light of positive value addition to the society observes the advent of personal branding. The palpable result is the identification and development of specific qualities and virtuosities in oneself as potential secernments amidst competition to elevate positive identity of worth and regard in the guild.

            An ingrained professional and personal individuation instilling perceptions of prominence, based on skills with a chiselled utility to the target segment of the social club open up the doors to constructive considerations. Consequence is inspiriting sensible professional sympathies amidst huddlers to focus upon progress and development of every entity concerned. On the personal front, consolidation of core competencies in a professional to sync with the nature of the person confers psychological contentment and economic success.

The effort of branding a person is inevitable and predictable. Calculated efforts initiated by the person proactively would grant a more positive brand image, than to remain profligately branded by the social circle depending upon the raffish perceptions of one’s psyche, behaviour and routine. Elements of branding include an engaging peripheral manifestation of personality; ruminated intents and aspirations that accord to one’s sketch of activities; the instinctive and evolved endowments, acquisitions and competencies that collectively demonstrate a unique value proposition to escalate the positive impression in the minds of the audience.

The chartered trajectory of personal branding is the ability to create a meaningful link of relevance with the audience; while remaining focused on one’s own value system. The blatant fact remains that the act and effort of branding oneself is no surrogacy to incompetency or a deviant itinerary to accomplish goals. The success of personal branding efforts is directly proportional to the establishment of trust, significance and relevance in the minds of the prospects. The critical element of success in branding oneself is to remain authentic to the real person that one is naturally, than designing an imaginary illusion of perceptions in the minds of the audience.

            Harnessing the trust and conviction of the professional circle in one’s abilities through efforts of personal branding is a double-edged sword that could prove to be sinisterly obnoxious if the projected image is deliberate, sly, shallow and larger than life. The essentiality of the appropriateness of the projected image to sync with the real person and professional; as well as the market with regard to the values and benefits shall provide a phenomenal impetus to the professional. Relevance of values and skills to the dynamics of the demand of the market is a preemptive requisite.

            Personal branding efforts of any kind are dynamic in nature so as to remain pertinent in the dissertation of the deepening dynamics that decree and determine demand. It is hence an imperative precondition to remain updated on the a la mode emerging trends in one’s industry or diligence. Advancement of associated adapted adeptness ameliorating professionalism that sync with demand and apperceived appraise ascertains one’s authenticity. The result is an incisive voluble content that broaches a momentous conversation stimulating sensible and sensitive professional affinity.

            Personal branding delves rich and thick as one's professional focus and promise of performance vouching aspirational growth and integrative progress. The use of genuine communication and legitimate substantiation is a fundamental ingredient. Also, the proliferation of communication platforms demand ineluctable astuteness in a professional on the choice of the appropriate medium and type of communication that would exploit the reach to one's professional guild. The resultant is a positive reinforcement on the demand authors to focus on the creation of a fertile and prolific substratum of mutual betterment and furtherance.

            The precision in presentation and persuasion pleaching positive stimulants effectively trivialises the rate of errors and trials, to collective success thereby providing prodigious progress and prosperity. Actuation of personal branding efforts is the choice and development of skills and passion that complement the assortment and add positively to the professional whole kit. However, the inevitable confinement of the professional to a certain degree of specificity demands an unambiguous synchrony between the natural person upon which the professional has been engraved.

            The act of personal branding is a conscientious art that would effectively escalate a professional to leadership levels, if adequately supplemented by sensible interpersonal skills and appropriate societal behaviour. Personal branding is here to stay in supremacy owing to the shrinking of the world as one global village and borderless movement of talent and treasury. The success of a professional shall soon be determined by the level of commitment and determination in one's efforts to personal branding. The defined future!
