Creating Systems

We are an organisation, within another organsition within another organisation, and so it goes.
And we love to create oranisations...maybe we are in the image of the One, maybe we were created in HIS likeness (excuse me ladies ..).
 
But we have definitely not evolved as much as the one whose likeness we inherited.
The fundamental difference is he created evolving, selg organising systems and let them run.
 
We, humans still focus on creating elements of the system, and try to evolve it.
 
A plane difference, that is what it is.

The LifeTime Offer

Vodafone India ₹ 499 LifeTime Offer Today, as I was having lunch, I received a call. The caller identified me by name. Then proceeded to explain she was calling to offer me a great ‘postpaid’ plan. From Vodafone. Why? I was already on a Vodafone pre paid. No Answer. But I figured. A few months earlier, I had figured that the bill being charged to me was too much for the services I was availing. So I did what a right minded Gujju would. Switched to pre-paid. Now mind you, I have been on post paid for over a decade before the switch. Back to the call.  She : I am suggestiing a Rs. 499/- “lifetime” plan which would include some 700 minutes of local talk time, 500 SMS and 2 GB of 3G data. Me (Thinking) : Now that is a pretty decent plan for someone with my kind of usage. My curiosity is piqued. Me : How long is “lifetime” Her (irritated voice) : lifetime means lifetime. Me : What if Vodafone shuts down this plan. Her : Kya Sir, aisa kabhi hota hai kya. Vodafone...

Why Mumbai will never be free from traffic

2004 : Regular commute on the western express highway (which was barely a total of 3-4 lanes) all the way to Seepz, sometimes via Aarey Colony/JVLR. Chai pe discussions (borrowed phrase) over why are they bothering to build a highway in the middle of the city..why we just cant have a metro from  Ghodbundar / Kashimira  to atleast Bandra , since we were anyways building the commercial district of Bandra Kurla Complex  and the  Bandra  Terminus. Anyways Delhi had a metro since the 1990's, and we being the hip and happening Mumbai deserved our own. That, we all know did not happen. And, in the meanwhile, atleast I now have good understanding of why something like that or similar will have opposing forces : Lost Fare - Such a move would render thousands of auto fares/taxi fares needless. Think about Rs. 1 to 2 crore lost on a daily basis. In this context, think of the cycle of increasing taxi-auto fares -> increasing taxi/auto permits -> increasing fa...

Formation of Indian States & National Unity - India in Danger ?

Welcome. Please ask yourself which state do you reside in, and the further, the basis of formation of that state.   States, in India, have been formed based on percentage population of people speaking a language . Such a basis, coupled with other factors, have set India on a path to disintegrating which should gain momemtum, in my estimtates within the next decade, with visible extreme negative results by 2025 . The intensity of this problem has aggravated in the last decade, simply due to the change in technology, making people more connected, in many cases amplifying perceptions of injustice to a particular group.   Why such a basis of division has been accepted, and used so far, is a question that needs serious answering. Worse, the momentun of such activity has been increasing in the past 15 years, bringing us periliously close to a Europe like reality.   Chattisgarh - formed 1 Nov 2000, separated from Madhya Pradesh. Uttarakhand - formed 9 Nov 2000, from ...
