25 Years Old! Did I see the whole world?
The Answer is No.
I am from a small town called Narsipatnam , in Andhra Pradesh,India. Since my Dad was an Officer in a bank I grew up in several places, travelling widely around the state. That is where I got a chance to have a glimpse of this beautiful world..
People... different people...different attitudes..different colors..different languages..They are just different...I used to wonder whaT it would be like if all people look alike ,talk alike and think alike.. You got the picture?It was one of my funniest imaginations when I was a child.
As I was born in a Brahmin Family, I am greatly influenced by the Religious Philosphies of Hinduism, which I proudly follow even today..
This doesnt mean that I get up early in the morning Do the SandhyaVandanam, recite some Vedic Mantras and sport the typical Brahmin Ponytail.
My Dad is a great man, he taught us the morals of life, how to love and care other people, though I dont recollect any cinematic relationship with him, I always had fear and respect for him.He is an ardent devotee of Lord Venkateswara. He taught us the great values of being disciplined in life ,slowly induced the Bhakti Cult onto me..With his inspiration I learnt lot of Mantras in my child hood itself..some of them to list are Hayagreeva Slokas, Raghavendra Slokam,Saraswathi Suktam..He insisted me in learning Vishnu Sahasranamaa..but I was always lazy in learning it as it requires a lot of patience to enchant it.
As days passed by I grew up old under these principles and I believe , I started looking for more Divine intervention in my life ;) I voluntarily started learning the Lalita Sahasranamam in my Plus 2 Holidays.. I strongly feel that because of the Divine Mother's blessings I was able to make it into the Engineering..During my Engineering I had a bad spell (Shani for 7 years) so I took up Eeswara Slokas to pacify the Shani. The Engineering was a dud for me..I was an above avg student till my plus 2 with 83% in my 10th and 84% in my +2. I passed my Engineering with a meagre 66% and my future started looking Bleak!
I had one of the worst phases of my life after my Engineering, with a first class under my belt and my cousins going through the campus interviews, I had a very rough time for 3 months with no job ..Then One day I started looking towards God for help..I started Learning Vishnu Sahasranamam..Guys you might not believe within a Week I was landed with 2 Job Offers..
One with Computech BizSol and TCS..Ofcourse I chose the latter...
You might think that it was a miracle and Lord Vishnu has done it for me ..But I have my own version..I strongly give credit to my Dad's relentless Efforts in worshipping Vishnu..
All these years I never Had any trouble in my academics though I havent studied straightly for an hour..It was my Dad's prayers that fished me out from all troubles I faced and still guarding me from the upcoming Ones..
