ಮರಳ ಕೋಟೆ - ಮೆಲ್ಲಗೆ ಅರಳು ಮಲ್ಲಿಗೆ (Inside our own false fort)

ಕಣ್ಣಂಚಲಿ ಆಗಸಾನ ತೋರಿಸಿ
ಎದೆಯಾಗೆ ಧೈರ್ಯಾನ ತುಂಬಿ
ಆಸೆ ಸುತ್ತ ಅಂಜಿಕೆನ ಸುತ್ತಿ
ಮರಳ ಕೋಟೆಯೊಳಗೆ ನನ್ನ
ನೀನ್ ರಾಜನನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡ್ಬಿಟ್ಟೆ
ಓ ಜೀವ, ಅದ್ಕೆ ನೀನಂದ್ರೆ ನಂಗೆ ಪ್ರೀತಿ
ಮೆಚ್ಚಿದೆ ನೀನ್ ನನ್ನೇ ಸೋಲಿಸಿದ ರೀತಿ!!

ಮರಳು ಹತ್ಕೊಂಡು ಬಂದವರು ಎಷ್ಟೋ
ಅವರ ನೆರಳೇ ಅವ್ರ್ಗೆಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾಣದೆ ಅನ್ಜಿದವರೆಷ್ಟೋ
ವಿಷಾನೆ ಇಲ್ಲದಿರೋ ಬರಿ ಹಾಡ್ನೆ ಕೇಳಿ ಮಣ್ಣು ಅದವ್ರೆಷ್ಟೋ !
ಕಣ್ಣಿಗೆ ಕಾಣೋ ದೂರದಾಗೆ ಹೂವನಿಟ್ಟು
ನಮ್ಮ ಗರ್ಭ ಗುಡ್ಯಾಗೆ ದೇವ್ರನ್ ಇಟ್ಟು
ಓ ಜೀವ, ನಂಗೆ ಹೂ ಕೇಳೋ ಮನಸ್ಸ ಕೊಡ್ಲಿಲ್ಲ
ಆ ಗುಡಿ ದೇವರಿಗೆ ಬೇರೆ ಪೂಜಾರಿನ ನೀನ್ ಇಡ್ಲಿಲ್ಲ..!!

ಕೋಟೆ ಒಳಗೆ ಕತ್ತ್ಲಾದ್ರು
ನಾನ್ ಎಂದು ಮಲಗಿಲ್ಲ,
ಕೋಟೆ ಕುಸಿದು ಎದೆ ಮಟ್ಟಕ್ಕೆ ನಿಂತ್ರೂ
ಆಚೆ ಇರೋರು ಯಾರು ನನ್ ರಾಜ್ಯಾನ ಪೂರ ನೋಡಿಲ್ಲ!
ಓ ಜೀವ, ನೀರ ಮ್ಯಾಗೆ ಈಜಿ ಹೋಗೋಕೆ ನೀನ್ ಬಿಡಂಗಿಲ್ಲ ,
ನಾನ್ ನಿಂತಿರೋ ಜಾಗ ದಡದಾಗೆ ಇದೆ ಅನ್ನೋದು ನಂಗೂ ಹಿಡ್ಸಂಗಿಲ್ಲ..!!

Summary: Our life is the space surrounded by the fort, that we have built for ourselves. Nobody else sees this for but us. Few who enter in this fort,mean into our life see their existence as false impression and run out. Few do not even dare to see what is inside the fort, even when you lower the fort height. The fort gives you the false courage though there are no enemies out there.
We often lose against our lines or boundaries, sometimes wanting to come out of it but unable to.
May be because we think we are safe where we are. that is inside fort of sand. We do know how to get the things we like, but certainly we avoid ourselves to move out of shell to get them. Not only because we are afraid of moving out but because of several other beautiful things which we do not want to lose out in the way to get the things we like. O jeeva, stands for talking to life itself or may relate to soul for which this life is just another space it lives in. Sometimes we stuck being what we are, where are are and relying on time to change things for us.

We will have to go against the "comfort, will and want" to get the things we desire, often leaving out few things which seem moral and ethical. Our conscience never sleeps, though its dark out there, darkness is only for a period of time. In darkness see to the other end and you see the life. Life that you ever wanted to have.

Thanks & Cheerio.

Timepass - Questions and answers

Friends forever
"I will be your friend always" is such a nice phrase... But few times in life you cross situations where you hate these words.. guess when??

When the person you hate tells you?? nooo...!!

The person whom you the love the most tells you that... :) Agree??

Walk in the Hell
Winston Churchill: If you are going through hell, keep going..
One of my friend: Since everything has to end somewhere even hell has to end at some point...
Me: huh..?? What if Hell is like Earth(Spherical)...?? You will reach the same place from where you started sometime before...!

Cheerio...

What Stock to Buy and at What Stock Price?

Though many stocks tips providers put this up in their website’s page, many sites conform to the success of their tips by so called “data editing”. Well, Fancy numbers like 500% returns in a month play with newbie investor’s mind and greed.

Give it a thought, if they could make so much money or if astrology can predict a stock’s future why on the earth they will be posting their tips on a website. Certainly they would be investing themselves or be a billionaire by now and generously giving away their valuable tips.

If you like to be an investor, you got to be an analyst first. Let’s be aware, Stock price is proportional (with certain factors, inversely) to the fundamentals of company and market trends and fluctuations at that point of time.

Luck plays a role too but not over the calculated risks and supporting information you have collected.

My thought on above question is, do your market study, don’t hurry to enter any stock. Give your own time so see a company’s profile, fundamentals before you invest in it.

When I say fundamentals of a company it is not just limited to how much its stock has rose in last week or gained in last couple of months. It is little beyond that; it is the collection of factors that are expected to impact the value of stock in current market situations.

Few of them might be,

  1. Assets of the company
  2. Company performance over the years and past financial quarters
  3. Debts and profit retention
  4. News about the company in near future
  5. Projects that company is planning to take up(This is quite tricky because many such news turns out be just rumours at the end market session. But believe they have some impact)
  6. EPS, don’t really give a serious note for it but partly yes. Most people suggest going by EPS but know what is EPS and its significance before relying on that number. I will write EPS later on may be in next articles.
  7. Volume of shares, bulk deals: Demand alters the price accordingly. This would be the basic fundamental anyone will be keen to see at before investing.
  8. Income statement, revenue, balance sheet, competitor market breadth – These are few things which are not straight forward to understand for the ones who are from financial background. But yes, if you can understand it better, safe is your investment.

I re-iterate, just by going through company fundamentals will not assure you profit. It is the pre study you need to be doing to see your investment safe in that company stock.

Now questions that would flash before us are what other factors might impact apart from fundamentals of a company? Forget not about market itself, market fluctuations, turbulence in country economy, politics or for anything that matter.

Picking the gaining stock when the trend of market is up does not make us smart investors. Money you gain is to be retained not to be lost when trend starts downwards. Money we gain is also ours, which is our asset for our next investments. We tend to think like profit as money which flowed in by some luck and we tend to play without cautions. Last on this article, don’t get carried away by the fluctuations or emotions!
