Blog for all the members of Manamantha group. Friday, July 06, 2007. కొన్ని తవికలు. రెమినిసింగ్ (Reminiscing). జ్ఞాపకమనే మూడో నేత్రంతో. గతమనే గనిని వెతికి చూస్తే. చివరకు దొరికింది తీయని అసంతృప్తి. ఇన్సామ్నియాక్ (Insomniac). నిద్రాదేవి అందని తావి. తప్పిన గురి - నా జీవన ఝురి. ద్వంద్వం 2. ఇవి ఆలోచనలు. వీటికి హద్దులే లేవు. నిరంతరం ఆకాశమార్గానే వీటి పయనం. ఆశయాలు, ఆశ్లేషాలు, ఆవేశాలు. వీటిని విహరింపచేసే రెక్కల గుర్రాలు. అవి చేసే పనులు. వాటికి ఉన్నవే హద్దులు. మా పాపాయి. మా పాపాయి. అమ్మ - నాన్న.

Blog for all the members of Manamantha group. Friday, May 15, 2009. By now I must have watched the movie, 'Gandhi', at least one hundred and odd number of times. I always get intrigued some of the incidents shown in the film. One them is, the foreign correspondent character, Vince Walker, played by Martin Sheen. In the movie, Walker met Gandhi few times, and he was eyewitness to a raid on 'Salt March', satyagraha movement. Http:/ www.galileolibrary.com/history/history page 166.htm. Dungri consisted of a ...

Blog for all the members of Manamantha group. Tuesday, August 05, 2008. I lived 17 years in India before moving to USA. I have great many fond memories of those days. I know the new generation can't imagine the time when there aren't any cameras (not to mention cameras which use 35mm film). Until 1988 we didn't have a camera of our own, even then none of us used to use the cameras as carelessly as we do now. A ball which look like an elephant. Ended-up playing cricket with it.

Manamantha's Blog: Human Spark
http://manamantha.blogspot.com/2010/01/human-spark.html
Blog for all the members of Manamantha group. Wednesday, January 20, 2010. I am a big fan of Alan Alda. I don't know how many of you know of him. He is a famous Hollywood actor, and famously known for his role in television show M*A*S*H* (1972-83). Even though I like his acting, I am fan of Alan Alda not because of it, rather because of his intellectual curiosity. I used to watch his shows on PBS few years ago, Scientific American Frontiers. Here is an excerpt from the latest episode - "Brain Matters'.
