Biryani of Life

 Biryani of Life.


- Dr Tripti Milind Galgali
Hubballi, Karnataka.

Biryani....a dish brought by the Mughals ...
Or before them Persian invaders.
Rice,spices,meat....mainly.

India introduced variants in the Biryani  ...
The Vegetarians in India replaced the meat with vegetables.....
Some added even Fruit- Jackfruit.....as they couldn't eat meat in Shravan and festival days....
Life is just like Biryani.
Every one can eat it.You maybe rich or poor...powerful or weak ...man or woman.....or 3rd gender.
Biryani doesn't see color, caste, religion, place.....
Each place has its own variation of Biryani.
The Rice- Represents Family.....whether a very costly Basmati....or free distribution from Government.....broken Rice,steam Rice...white,brown,black .....
Biryani tastes great.
You may be born in any family.....life is always beautiful.
Variants- Meat,Vegetables, Fruit,Paneer,Tofu,Mushroom......anything....It's individual choice.
In life,a person makes individual decisions and choices.The other person may appreciate or condemn.
But individual choices are favorable for that person.....bring happiness to individual  ......whether other persons approve or not.
Spices- Key ingredients for real flavor in Biryani......absolutely essential.
Spices could be friends,surroundings, lifestyle.......
Extra Spices are like luxuries,frivolity, extravaganza......over do it.....kills the taste of Biryani.....
So one always should spice up their life judiciously.....wisely for the right flavors.
Biryani tastes great if cooked on mild flames very very slowly......Dum Biryani.
Life also needs to be lead patiently.
Everything takes time to give good results.
Succes in life is achieved by hard work and perseverance  .There is no short cut.
Life has ups and downs....
But in long term......
Just like Biryani......
It tastes great....cherishing forever. .....
Ah! each bite taken with rich flavors is enjoyable and satisfying.

How much......is too much?????

  How much ....is Too much????? I happened to visit my Paediatrician friend. An IAS officer brought her 2 month baby for check up.The baby was crying while passing urine.Urine tests and culture showed no infection. The concerned Mother showed a methodically maintained book on number of times the 2 month was breastfed,pooped, burped,passed motion,flatulence..body temperature..etc etc....We were surprised by minute details noted every moment of the newborn by the apprehensive but diligent new Mom. Now we come to the part .....How much....is too much???? To maintain asepsis....the overtly careful mom.....had wiped the private parts of the baby ...each time it passed urine or motion.....with concentrated hospital Savalon antiseptic solution...... This resulted in inflammation of the baby's soft mucosa over private parts.....making every passing of urine agonizing and burning....... Today,we have Apps and gadgets....Technology and information.....which help us monitor and modify ou...

I QUIT!!!!

  I Quit!!!! Yesterday, my kids favorite teacher,a very motivating person who helped so many students perform better .....a disturbed student, a student finding it difficult to cope,an average or below average student  ....so many of them,he not only taught them to fare well but boosted confidence into them to do well with their life......such a person QUIT......He ended his life by hanging himself in his house....leaving a bereaved aged mother,a dependent wife and 2 very small children behind. Few days back,a Radiologist committed suicide while another Post Graduate student succumbed to Depression. Life is a challenge. Life is unpredictable. To all. Just as a Sinus Curve....there are Ups and Downs in life. Students have pressure of exams. Youth have professional career pressures. Adults have umpteen challenges. Finance,Relationship, Career,Illnesses....Peer and Society pressures.....Loans and EMI  .....Bull And Bear Stock Market add to the pressure.If added Addic...

Agnee- Path

  Agnee-path Agnee = Fire Path- in English means Way....Road. Feiry Way....... Do you remember of village melas...festival fairs..... A man would blow fire.... Walk over hot charcoal fire...... As a kid all this would be exciting to see...... I would wonder.... Can I too try these stunts???? Childhood is full of innocence and simple life Small things give immense joy. As we grow.....Expectations increase. When reality doesn't meet the demands of ever expecting mind....... We start blowing out fire.... Path we tread....feels like Hot Charcoal...... Ambition is good for growth. But an impatient mind.......wants that growth to be fast...... Expectations race ahead..... Reality lags behind...... Peer Pressure adds fuel to the developing frustration...... Social Media makes us Cynical...... Is Social Network bad???? No.Technology and Digitalisation has made life easy. Social Media has made communication easy. Globe has shrunk.Anything ,Everything....Anyone....Ever...
