Anger

On the spiritual path , you have some things that remind you that you have a long way to go. One such dipstick is Anger. And especially if it gets activated due to the actions of others.

If only we can control it , we think. Well we cant. Cause its man mouji. It cannot be controlled, if it is internal. But if external , a controlled path can be made available for it to pass , when needed.  But even doing so is not without its implications. Cause though water douses fire, there can be fire within water also , and even that (fire within water ) can burn .

To forgive both the stimulant and the one who gets consumed is important.  For where forgiveness lives , anger cannot.

Bhor

Khoob soche, tumko milke kya ho jayega,

Kahin rab to nahin yeh dil pa jayega.

Paani mein bhi Meen thi pyasi,

Sote hua bhi neend thi baaki ,

Kya kehte hum ,

Kya tum sunte,

Woh ankaha tha,

Woh jo na suna tha,

Koi dor thi jo khiche,

phool khile bagiche,

Bhor ho aayi,

Chand phir bhi dikhta tha,

mathe pe tumhare teeke,

namak hai phir bhi pheke

Kuch to tha baaki,

Aan rahi thi Kalki.

Sooraj bahar aayega,

ujyala le aayega,

dikhegi woh raah tumhe,

jo saath tumhare chalti thi,

pass magar na dikhti thi.

Bhor ho aayi.

Rich vs Wealthy

Rich vs Wealthy .

 

So a certain someone asked me – What would you rather be rich or wealthy ?

 

 

I answered wealthy then , but it has been on my mind for some time.

 

What is the difference between rich and wealthy ?

 

First I believe that both are used interchangeably in normal conversation. But when u talk about a Bill gates or a Mukesh Ambani one talks of wealth. They are rich , no doubt , but they are wealthy. People, magazines etc try and put a figure to their wealth and not their riches.

 

Whats the difference?

A rich person could be defined as a person who has money. A wealthy person may not necessarily have that much , but may have access to it. A wealthy person might have a lot of paper money , or assets which are not liquid in nature. Their true valuation may not always be found in that very instant. At the same time a wealthy person usually can afford to not work for some time and still live the same lifestyle that he/she has.

Eg . if Bill Gates or Mukesh Ambani were to stop working they would still be able to live  their present lifestyle. Also if they were to loose everything they have a higher chance of not ending up broke all their life as they have the potential to bounce back.

 

A rich person on the other hand , has become rich or has money due to his work or skill. Eg , Sachin Tendulkar or a winner of Kaun Banega Crorepati (Who wants to be a Millionaire). Their two generations down may not have the same money as they have today .

 

A rich person has money , while a wealthy person knows how to make money. Usually (not always ), a wealthy person is a person who does an investment or takes a calculated risk.

It is said that if all the money in the world were to be distributed equally among all the living , in 10 years time we would return to a similar inequality as exists today. Cause to have money is one thing, but to keep money and grow it is another. A wealthy person knows how to grow money, and thus may not always make as much as a rich person in the start.

Its similar to the XY story , where X makes Rs 10,000 a month and Y makes Rs 50,000 a month. X saves Rs 6000 every month , while Y spends Rs 45000 every month. X is not rich , but he is wealthier than Y.

 

Wealth can be of many types. Rich is mostly about money. It has been seen that most wealthy people will give back to society and most big trusts were formed by Wealthy People and not Rich people. A wealthy person can afford to donate a big chunk of his/ her wealth and still not affect their state of living.

 

 

 

Stanley ka Dabba

Just saw Stanley Ka Dabba. Loved it . I think the best films are those where they can make a connect, an emotional one. I believe the best years of my life were spent in school. It is what I most cherish. The dosti, the fun , the sharing , the caring , the fights …., it was just perfect.

School is where there is just a lot of interaction , and learning happening. I am even thinking of starting a  scholarship for deserving Parsi students , where their schooling will get paid for. Am gonna be working on this , as well as starting it ASAP.At least one childs life can be changed.

Why only a Parsi kid? Well I dont know yet , so am gonna think about that.

 

 

All You Can Eat

The unlimited buffet or All you can eat for one fixed price , can fascinate people.  Its something that makes one wonder, If I would have had ordered 2 dishes, the cost woudl have been say Rs 500 and here I have a choice of 10-12 dishes, and I can fill the the plate as many times I want.

AYCE can start from Rs 40 in the form of unlimited thalis, and go on till Rs xx,xxx per head in some private bookings. But lets discard teh private bookings in Five Stars as there you are paying for something other than food mainly.

Whats interesting is that the Veg and mostly Gujarati type Thali are the most famous and visited places in India. There are chains of such restaurants also now and they are no longer cheap.

So how do they offer unlimited for x amount?

Well first of all what’s important to note is that they will always have starters/soup. The idea is to fill your stomach with stuff that is cheap first. Some places will offer chaas/ cold drinks and they can fill your stomach even before you have started. Then the idea is that not all five fingers are the same. Some people will eat less and some will eat more , but usually its like the unimited internet option. Less than 5% of the total people max it out . Same is the case with AYCE. In case of veg / non veg options, well usually people will be not coming to an AYCE alone and will follow table manners and keep in mind how many times they got up for a refill.

Also in a AYCE , the restaurant has to invest less in people to wait on tables and will have a fast rotation as people are not waiting for food to be made. What it also does is free advertising ? WOM is always there if people liked it or not.

The food is usually always rotated and reused. Thus the same meats / potato will be reused in making something else. Also the food is used to serve people in A la carte. The money is made usually only when the rotation and number of people are enough, otherwise the diner will always loose money.
