About me
Am a contradiction of sorts. i love going out and having a good time with friends, and i can also stay home chill out over a book or a movie..
Am very passionate about writing, so give me a topic and watch me float away into wonderland... Love reading books- sometimes i read 3books simultaneously, crazy about music- need it all around me, all the time and ofcourse, i totally am ga ga goo goo over my 7yr old naughty brat- Floppy!! errr, Prince Floppy!! :)
He stood there, at the intersection glowing under the light.. I have no idea who he is or why there is a statue for him out here in Hospet... No signboard, no plaque nothing...
This was a statue we passed by when walking towards the bus stand.. Shimmering under the light, this person was definitely an artist of some sort, maybe a poet.. but nobody knew of him... I came back from the trip, and posted this on Instagram and a friend of mine solved the puzzle. She said he was
"Saint Kanakadasa. A poet philosopher and an important person in the Bhakti movement of Karnataka.His compositions are famous and sung even today by leading Carnatic exponents."
Have you come across such mysterious things during your travels? Do share stories...
The Marina beach in Chennai is the longest beach in the country, stretching across 14kms... There is a Mahatma Gandhi's statue almost at the center, and it is a beautiful one at that....
This photo was taken during an early morning [7am] walk along the beach with uncles and cousins....
There are so many statues lining the beach, hope to capture them and share them all during the coming month :)
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Buddha
Everytime i see an image or a piece like this of Buddha, it catches my eye,stays in my mind and makes me smile!! There is something calming about Buddha.... I long to bring home a Buddha statue, just yet to find the ONE!!
This Buddha idol i saw at
Odyssey bookstore in
Express Avenue when i had gone with a friend on Sunday.... Quite liked the play of colours, but dint understand why there was a strange earring with fake white stones on it... Click Click on my Blackberry i did :)
