Parks of Varanasi

This post is triggered to place on record comments made by me on mygov.in with regard to invitations for Ideas the Parks of Varanasi.

These should be widely applicable to all parks in general, in a country struggling to efficiently deploy its resources for the benefit of the struggling masses.

Trees can be planted in several places and not just in parks...
People can have walking paths in other places and not just parks...
People can invest time, money and effort in making other essential things better like helping the poor, homeless, ill and not just pour resources into parks...
Politicians like parks...MAYAWATI made many many parks...

BETTER is to make these parks RESPONSIBLE for Recycling for the AREA around them..
All manure used should be self-generated..all surrounding locality Garbage should be processed (segregated) there and then dispatched further..
SALE of recyclable waste and taking effort out of municipality will make these Parks as self-financing or revenue-generating centers...

Nobody usually likes a revolution, except when the alternative is to eat the (in)famous french recipe cake. But communism was an idealistic, bold experimentation to the bourgeoise general apathy. It went beyond just economic equality by adding to the new French recipe of libertie, egalite, fraternite. Womens's equality and voting rights. Yes, what was so progressive seems regressive, just because the ideas of co...

Management greatness

We have so much to thank modern management for. Penicillin, the A bomb, computers, internet, automobiles and air travel, high yield crops and electricity. Everything about human progress depends upon management contributions. That is the reason it is the greatest thing ever and most talked about and well paid profession, since it is so essential for progress. How could we ever do without it?

Of what purpose, happiness?

Happiness is an end unto itself. After it is what it is. Purpose of life is after all 64 (and happiness). A self fulfilling goal. No need to inquire about the purpose of our actions, what is right or wrong with a deeper understanding. Be happy, purposefully. Easy? Right? Perhaps a bit too easy or Simple but not easy?
