My School prayer

Mind Without Fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;

Where knowledge is free;

Where the world has not been broken up

into fragments by narrow domestic walls;

Where words come out from the depth of truth;

Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;

Where the clear stream of reason

has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;

Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action---

Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.


- Rabindranath Thakur

Of The Week

For about a month now I have been regularly following the online telecast of the show week that wasn't. It's a usual take on the present news, aired on IBN, anchored by Cyrus MTV Broacha. This is one show that truly is hilarious. The way it is presented, it seems like an extension of the Cyrus on MTV, and in fact it is. I love it anyway. Actually about half the jokes are not funny at all and the rest are PJs but somehow it does manage to tickle you and sometimes more than just that. The joy and enthusiasm with which Cyrus speaks is just awesome. Where it actually scores over the other cnews channel comedy shows is its 'no holds barred' approach. Unlike the other hosts, like Shekhar Suman, who always is wary not to insult the people, well, this team doesn't care one bit. An MTV approach to a news channel comedy show. Try it. It's different.
