Editorial Note - Happy New Year -2025

Editorial Note - Happy New Year -2025

Another year passes by to bring us to another moment of reflection, reckoning, anticipation, resolution, hopes and dreams... We as human beings have our destiny tied up with space and time inextricably. I have a growing realization that many a times what we consider as an individual approach to change in our lives, our mental models or preferences is nothing more than effect of the time and space we belong to... A country being economically, socially and technologically less evolved might exhibit Family Values, Professional Ethics and Societal Norms of what an evolved country exhibited 20 years earlier when they were at that stage ....Same things apply to individuals....when you observe a change in behavior of a certain person, check whether the person has different circumstances now as compared earlier times... People living in small houses with lesser amenities often exhibit closer family bonds then the ones living in larger houses with all luxuries... it is the adversity that fosters humanity or kindness; good times seems to foster alienation, aloofness, distance... There could be exceptions but generally, there are patterns to our behavior. We tend to focus on the person while in fact it is the time that has changed and not the person. The person might only be reflecting the effect of the change in time... Very closely observe the space around a person which would mean their affiliates, friends, acquaintances , their locality, possessions, and the times they are in their life.. sad times, happy times, affluence, penury, fears, insecurities etc.. There is a concept in Buddhism called  eshō-funi which means Oneness of Self and Environment. This typically means that the environment acts like a perfect mirror to one's inner state of life...While to an individual it provide an opportunity to understand the changes to be internalized in order to improve their circumstances; to an observer it means; watching and understanding the environment of a person and uncover the Inner state of life of that person with perfection and accuracy... unmistakably...Many a times we find that the people were getting materially elevated while experiencing ( and accepting) free fall of their moral values and sense of justice.. and both were manifested in their environment as a true reflection of their inner life states.

New Year gives us an opportunity to reflect on our spaces and times and look back and ahead.. We wish each other a promising future and surge of positivity suffuse the planet earth. I also take this opportunity to open a new chapter of my writing journey by launching 'Delta-To-Sigma' in its new outlook. The journey that started more than a decade back has been a truly rewarding experience of my life. I was able to connect with many readers from across the geographies and make some everlasting friendships. The stats shows a widespread reach across countries like US, UK, Germany, Russia, France, Sweden, Ukraine, Hongkong, Singapore, Portugal, Latvia, Finland, Luxembourg, Canada, Columbia, Poland and Israel.

I am thankful to all my readers for their constant encouragement and insightful feedbacks and guidance. I cherish each one of you and truly hope for your continued patronage.

Wish you a very very Happy new Year!!! May god bless you all with great health and vigor to dream big and make every dream come true. May this new year bring you more awareness of your own space and time. May you master your minds fully and become keen observer of the inner life state of others and awaken them to their true selves. May we all evolve to be free of the fundamental darkness and conquer greed, anger and envy so that our biases do not pass into a generation of Artificial Intelligence creating a magnified versions of our lower selves. May we all become enlightened before inventing machines that are self governed and have immense power to influence.

!!!Happy New Year!!!

Editorial Note - Happy New Year

Editorial Note - Happy New Year 

"As we usher in the new year, it’s worth noting that AI has made significant strides in the past year. AI has been used to solve complex problems and make our lives easier. From self-driving cars to personalized medicine, AI has the potential to revolutionize the way we live and work. AI is a giant leap for humankind, and it’s exciting to see what the future holds. With AI, we can make better decisions, solve problems faster, and create a better world for everyone. The possibilities are endless, and I’m excited to see what the future holds! 🚀🌟

 In 2023, the topic of AI evolution was a hotly debated one. While some experts warned of the potential risks of AI, such as the possibility of destabilizing civilizations and escalating misinformation, others were more optimistic about the benefits of AI, such as its potential to transform the labor market.

In March 2023, over 1,000 technology leaders working with AI signed a letter warning that AI technologies present “profound risks to society and humanity.” These experts suggest that research should be paused, and new regulations considered before any further development of AI bots like Chat-GPT.

It’s important to note that while AI has the potential to revolutionize the world, it is still in its nascent stages and has a long way to go before it can replace human intelligence. As such, it is unlikely that robots will take over humanity anytime soon.

Wow!!! What a great reflection of the last year and anticipation of the new year completely created by Generative AI ...I thought of starting my editorial note using this great technology   to co-create the Headline picture and Opening passage with GenAI tools. It is indeed thrilling to see the enormous power it adds to our imaginations and capability as humans. I think the debate of AI overtaking Humans could be shelved and all fears vanquished with more communication around it and world leaders taking lead to collaborate and lead Responsible AI initiatives across the globe to benefits all citizens of Earth equally instead of using it to destructively against each other as a tool of intimidation and subjugation. Humans have misused most technologies to create divides but the potential of AI as a technology is too big to be left for ungoverned use and to be mishandled. 

I thank all the readers from United States, India, Russia, Germany, France, Ukraine, Portugal, United Kingdom, Poland, Israel, Canada, Indonesia, Australia, Latvia, Sweden, Romania, Singapore, China and other countries for sharing their comments. It feels nice to note that there are many posts which are liked by people across the globe and that the world longs for peace, humanity and love to be the values to cherish. 

This year was overwhelming in my personal experience as an observer. Being an observer, fills me with immense curiosity about changing values. I observe an unstoppable urge in people to shun any heavy lifting of emotional commitments - I saw family members immediately after the funeral of their elder bursting into laughter’s and jokes and all kind of small talks, I saw family members posting their pictures of dancing with joy within a week of the death of their loved ones. I was at loss whether it was growing insensitivity towards any human connection or just a culture of being in constant high all the time or just self-centeredness and indifference under the delusional growing up followed by denial of incompetence.

I saw great leaders ensnared by the fawning retainers into taking unfair sides and losing their stature...I saw people talking in groups rather than connecting personally... I saw appreciation becoming a greed than being a need... I saw many sincere people living under constant stress and discomfort and I realized there were fewer guardians of their Psychological safety....Being nice, duty bound, sincere, well meaning, respectful, honest, truthful, simple, hardworking,  committed, scrupulous, intelligent was no longer appreciated as much and people were emphasizing the importance of being street smart, connected, networked and mutually thriving on common interests....I saw the sense of right and wrong losing its relevance.. with too many eloquent people around anything could be challenged, questioned and  destroyed and virtues of great achievers were the soft targets for the colluding minds...Very sad but the optimism prevails and hope never dies in me for a better tomorrow...

 The year also proved that the collective wisdom of  human minds was getting ready for achieving greater outcomes...It appears that space shall be next big thing where thinking of travelling and even settling will become a practical reality soon...Machines are getting embedded more in our lives and soon we shall see transformative effects of another quantum leap of human evolution of merging with machines...It appears that very soon, we shall not have to train ourselves into some skill until a quarter of our life to be able to earn our livelihood... This job could be easily done by Machines...Humans shall be ready to take a different role...a role of making choices and making and contributing ideas that could be executed with the help of machines at a much larger scale transcending the boundaries of our planet or galaxies.... making real advances in connecting with other civilizations in the solar system ...Expanding our power by multi-fold and becoming super humans. 

From the loftiest heights to the bottomless abyss.... we have unbelievable swings as a human being!!!

Please keep sharing your views and blessings. Please keep sharing the messages of humanistic values. 

Please protect good people. They are the hope.  

They keep the world going amidst all absurdities. 

Wish you all a very Happy new year once again!!! 

 Stay Optimistic, Positive, Kind and Compassionate to give hope to everyone around you!!

                                                                                                                                From- 

                                                                                                                                Manish 'Pakhi'  

Editorial Note 2023

Warm wishes for each other for a very happy new year float around. There is celebration and joy and a sense of looking forward to a new year so vibrant and illuminating that every soul on this planet earth is healed in its light. For a moment , for a day we become all so very different...so very benevolent...so very well wishing... so very kind ...so very joyful!! May this Bon-homie last forever.. May this bliss never end.. May we all rise above our lower selves and lend a helping hand to the needy. May all of us " Humans" uphold " Humanity" and live in a "Humanitarian" way. 

Once again, my deep gratitude to all my readers from across the world. The stats shows that the no. of readers from United States are becoming equal to the no. of readers from India. This is followed by Russia, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Ukraine, Portugal and United Kingdom as the top ten countries in readership. I thank all my readers for liking the blog and sharing your feedback and comments. 

Today I would like to talk about Aging and the Attitudes about aging. My mentor Dr. Daisaku Ikeda has stated and I quote

" None of us is immune to old age. Shakyamuni once spoke of the need to conquer three forms of pride...pride of youth, of health and of life. Drunk with the pride of youth, people have an aversion to those bent with age. Drunk with the pride of health, people have an aversion to those suffering from illness or disease. And drunk with the pride of life, people have an aversion to the dead. But by looking away from the realities of aging, sickness and death, we deny our own future; we reject or inevitable fate.......

The rich life experiences of older people constitute a precious and irreplaceable resource. It behooves us, to pay attention to the way we view aging and to create a society in which the elderly can experience fulfillment and live out their lives as they wish. ....  

It is terrible when the aged, who most likely grew old during long years of service to their families and to society, feel cut off from that very society. Often, they respond by closing their minds and isolating themselves. The elderly, aware that they cannot do many things as they once did, understandably find the problems and limitations difficult to accept. " 

Unquote. 

Today we find people increasingly becoming intolerant to aging and elderly. Intolerance to elderly manifest in different ways such as Admonishing, Ignoring and  Abandoning. I see young people  insulting elderly with a smug and complacent air as if they are immune to age. They seem to disparage the wisdom of the Elders and mock at it. I find many well to do children are not able to find time to visit their elders, talk with them, nurse their needs and help them to ease their anxieties into a sense of fulfillment. Even when they talk, the arrogance in their tone and pitch speaks of their uncivilized mind first. Why cant' they be a little humble, polite, well mannered and cultivated? Why..Are their hearts so full of grudges for their own woes of life that they want to blame their elders and make them pay for it with their disrespect...how pitiful.. 

If it is not about elderly, in general I find there is growing intolerance towards aging people. Elders are being challenged by their younger ones not today but from ages...The difference is that earlier this challenging was a part of growing up to assert one's individuality and evolving identity with a shade of youthful innocent protest...now the innocence from the protest is gone and replaced with a haughtiness....I find the younger ones addressing their elders in the most disrespectful manners, talking over them, taking precedence and main  stage rather than humbly standing aside....I remember a gathering in the recent past when in a condolence meeting for a deceased relative, the younger brother opened the address instead of respectfully bowing down  the  occasion to the elder brother who was also present. The solemnity of the occasion, the dignity and the grace were all taken away by this very act of insolence. On another occasion I saw a young person admonishing the father on who knows the medical science better.. " You or Me"!!  and the father felt  devastated  remembering all those efforts he did to make that child a doctor. I also find that in social chat group many youngsters address their elders not by their salutation or relation but a sign of @ appended to their names. This simply reduces the person to a Variable Name as if in a programming code. Such way of addressing each other has no feelings in hearts but only big hollow voids.... How Vacuous.. !! 

Such intolerance is intolerable and unpardonable.. 

 

Why is so that the some younger ones do not want to take their elder's advice, guidance and directions. The answer is simple and a bitter truth.. They have grown up with years but their experience with life and its vagaries is very limited... The pretend to be grown up.. mimic to show their wisdom.. They are not grounded and live in fantasy of their own minds.. They lack understanding of real life, real pain, real sorrow, real joy, real loss and real gain...In other words, their limited knowledge and exposure make them believe into know-it-all disposition in a very unreal way.. They are not Connected...

I wish the coming year brings lots of wisdom and understanding of the role of elderly in our lives, in our families, in our workplaces and  in our societies.  Wish to see the youthful spirit combining with the elderly wisdom to create the most beautiful world  around us. A world of compassion, Concern and most genuine care...

Wish you a very Happy new year once again!!! 

Stay healthy, safe and let your spirit soar the highest to a life condition of unparalleled compassion!!

                                                                                                                                From- 

                                                                                                                                Manish 'Pakhi'  

Editorial note 2020

Once again the new year wishes resound all around. Once again there is positive charge in the air. People wishing each other the best. Good vibes pervades our being. This is yet another amazing moment. 

It is more than a decade of blogging for me now.  A decade of an avid readership following and liking the simplest things in life; poetry, music, writings, art and the inspirational vibes that touch the heart.

Readership extended to countries like United States, India, Russia, Germany, France, Ukraine, Portugal, Latvia and United Kingdom. I thank all my readers for their valuable feedback and encouraging  support from the bottom of my heart. 

One thing that universally comes out from the myriad responses received from the readers all across the world is that how people across cultures, ethnicities and religions yearn for accumulating treasures of the heart. Accumulating treasures of the heart may not bring material gains but it certainly enrich your soul and nourish your inner self. This leads to expiation of karma and suffuse you with a feeling of joy. 

The Joy of Life!! 

The joy of being in rhythm with the universe!! 

The Joy of helping others!! 

How many lives did you help finding their goal? How many lives did you help bring a smile to their face? How many hearts did you illuminate with the rekindled hope? 

The peril of being misunderstood, being hated, being shunned, being   envied, being slandered and being persecuted is inevitable when you selflessly help others or do good to them. It is unavoidable when you accumulate treasures of the heart. 

Nevertheless, keep doing good, keep helping others, keep encouraging people and keep giving them hope: Undaunted and undefeated, with humility and gratitude accept undoing the ties of Karma knot by knot until emancipation. 

It is not as over complicated as spiritual awakening or nirvana...

 It is just the simplest way to live life joyfully with effortless ease and no heavy burden of negativity and wrongdoing. 

It is human, it is natural to our soul, it is most simple!! 

Do it! !

Wish you a very happy new year once again!!

Editorial note: Happy New Year 2019

Delta-to-Sigma, today compeletes a decade ; a journey  of  sharing heart warming, encouraging, so very kind, so very soothing,most touching quintessential human spirit to impart hope and inspiration to people.

This human spirit most easily and naturally permeates the core of our being and nourishes soul. It creates the synergy of universal consciousness and individual's free will to unleash Mystique,Magic and Miracles.

Human spirit is invincible &  indomitable. In its most subtle form, it transcends the barriers of space and time. Human spirit is the celestial celebration of the magnanimity of the unbounded space in the microcosms of our lives; when we become 'Aware' of this ceremonial consonance, an optimal experience is the construct: An experience called 'FLOW' : a mind state in which we are captivated into an immersive interlude to create what could be a piece of music, a poetry, a painting, a discovery, an invention, a foretelling, a visualisation, a deja vu, a reverie and above all love!!

Delta-to-Sigma has been an attempt to capture such magics and miracles to instill confidence and hope in people without being therapeutic or didactic.Every expression, every inspiration, every page of this blog is imbued with the human spirit in its most spontaneous orchestration. There are many people, many lives it touched in last 10 years!! Many victories, many turn arounds, many many of them. Intense, passionate and Reassuring.

Everytime human spirit is hurt; the flow is disrupted. There is only one power that heals!! The power of FAITH.

Faith!! The gateway to optimal experience.

Feedbacks and comments from all the cherished and most respected readers from all parts of the world including USA, UK, France, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, Canada, Slovenia, Brazil, Australia and India; Without this encouraging support from all the readers, Delta-to-Sigma journey could not have reached to this milestone. My sincere gratitude!!

New year is  buzzing with the best wishes all around.How auspicious!! Power oftelecommunications technologies bring everyone together to generate a momentum that fills the air with positive vibes. There is a charge in atmosphere; the best of human spirit.

For me, the year of 2018 was an year of achievements and pleasant victories; Publishing my anthology of heartwarming poems, a musical performance as my heartfelt gratitude and tribute to my mentor, Translations of more than 40 chapters of a Buddhist scripture,  an academic pursuit, visiting my childhood province after 35 years, an old friend reunion after 17 years and many many more.

I once again thank you all for your blessings; from the bottom of my heart!! Keep reading and sharing your experiences as always.

 I wish you a very happy, exciting, scintillating, rewarding, inspiring, enriching, fulfilling, heartwarming, victorious, trailblazing and enlightened new year of 2019!!!

With deepest regards and gratitude,

- Pakhi- 

Editorial Note - Happy New Year 2018

Editorial Note - Happy New Year 2017 

On the 9th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma, I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to readers all over the world who have been giving their valued suggestions, comments, and inputs. Many of them wrote as to how this blog turned their state of life into positive, optimistic and joyful feeling looking towards the brighter tomorrow, hope and faith in the power of good. 

The year of 2017 turned out to be a year of transformation just as I had hoped in my 2017 new year note. Significant developments took place across the world - globalization started shrinking into insular shadows, the Borderless world saw borders being enacted, Cryptocurrencies surged, Artificial Intelligence did rounds in the discussion circles and social media turned out to be a great transformative force. On a personal level, this year was the year of inner transformation with actions at the breathtaking pace. I started learning how to carry your own cave with you which means developing an unflappable temperament. 

Once again thanks to all the readers from all parts of the world including US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Russia and many other countries. 

I Look forward to Year 2018 as the year of Achievements. Achievements are so natural when the actions, thoughts and deeds are Right. A right path, a right approach, a right attitude make all the difference.  Those who are on the side of right always find them in minority. The sly, cunning and clever evildoers find ways and means to make even good people become their instruments. I saw some very good and principled people succumbing to the contrived and impenitent wrongdoers. The path of Right is not easy...It brings rejections, banishments and disparagements..yet In the end ..it is worth coz. it never fails to WIN..  

Achieve, Achieve and Achieve more .... More than ever in this new year !!!

Achieve a state of life so full of JOY & GRATITUDE  !! 


This year too we lost some of our near ones..We pray for their quick rebirth in good circumstances..  

Do not depend on people... Depend on the strength of your faith..because people change faster than seasons.. Faith is forever !!

The New Year day is again abuzz with excitement and warm wishes. Everyone is wishing everyone else loads of good fortune...May this bonhomie be engraved in each heart and reflect in actions for each other..

Happy New Year to all of you and waiting to hear your Achievements. Nothing inspires like achievements!!  Keep writing and stay blessed . Cheers!!!

                                                                                                                                - Pakhi-

Editorial Note - Happy New Year 2017

Editorial Note - Happy New Year 2017 

On the 8th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma , I  express my deep gratitude for the continued patronage of all my dear readers from all parts of the world from US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Russia and many other countries.

I have received many messages to write more and I know that there is lot more than that we need to do, lot more to write , to connect, to touch lives , to revive hopes,  to help, to encourage , to inspire and in the process evolve ourselves to beome better and better human being. 

Some of the posts I shared last year like Joan Baez - We shall overcome is my all time favorite. Her singing is so full of understanding and empathy that a connect is almost instant. Such is the intensity of emotions felt and expressed- imbued with sincerity. Among others My Real Self received many comments. Sensei's Fan dance is ever youthful expression of dignity and courage.

I Look forward to Year 2017 as the year of  transformation. A transformation deep with in with no cosmetic airbrushing. A disruptive initiative to redefine ourselves...if not now then when!! There is no other moment more real than the present moment. Now is the time to break barriers, push boundaries,  challenge our limitations FEARLESSLY. A new version of self, an avatar that really puts us in new orbit ...a quantum leap.. a turn around and a complete make over.

DETERMINE, REDETERMINE & REDETERMINE.. 

Like all years there are some who are not with us as we usher in the new year. We sincerely pray for them to take rebirth in good circumstances. There were some who gave us shade in tumults..We remember them and cherish their contribution to our lives forever. 

A child is closest  to God in purity of emotions. Adults cannot even fathom the hurt they can cause with their insular thinking to a child's innocent heart. Those who realize this kneel down to hold the hand of the child softly and murmur sincere apology...those who do no not are not benedictory..lets learn from children - innocence and love .

The New Year day is again buzzing with excitement and warm wishes and Bonhomie. Amazing, awesome and captivating. Expression of  benevolence, bliss, mirth and unlimited freedom.

Happy New Year to all of you and waiting to hear the success stories of  Transformation of self, transformation of families and society from all of you. Keep writing and stay blessed . Cheers!!!

                                                                                                                                - Pakhi-

Editorial note : Happy new year 2016

On the 7th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma , I once again thank all the readers  from US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Russia and many other countries for their contributions, comments and suggestions.

I have received many messages to write more.. I am thankful to all the readers who found this small effort to glean inspirations from all over and encourage those who need it..

A word of encouragement, a word of appreciation , a word of praise bring out the true potential of a person. Today we find most people struggling with their lesser self , hurting themselves as they hurt others... The true purpose of life being nowhere in sight..

It is unimportant how long a life one led... how each moment was lived is most important.. 

It is dangerous to rely on our fluctuating mind which has limited wisdom, foresight and sense of right and wrong...

A mentor is needed to shows us the true path...
A philosophy is required to work as anchor of our life.. 
A conscious effort is required to do our human revolution to realise our mission every day.. 

The journey of Human Revolution is long but every step is rewarding..

This year I met some fantastic individuals ..I will remember them forever...

The New Year day is again buzzing with excitement and warm wishes. Why can't every moment of year be charged like this , when we wish each other the best, congratulate them and celebrate the joy and sorrows both with aplomb and equanimity accepting life as it is ... 

Lets do this this year !!!!!

Happy New Year to all of you and waiting to hear the stories of  human revolution and grand victories.

                                                                                                                                - Pakhi-

Editorial Note - Happy New Year

On the 6th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma , I once again thank all the readers  from US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Russia and many other countries for their contributions, comments and suggestions.

With multitudes of Social network platforms, Instant Chat and Messaging applications proliferating and connecting minds across the world, new year buzz of  wishing happiness, success, peace, safety, love and fulfilment electrify the atmosphere. 

The power of these platforms of bringing minds together unites the solemn and seeking spirit of each one of us to be and make everyone happy fills every moment of the day with nothing but positivity. 

This positivity  getting unleashed is the real treasure of the human heart..a chorus for peace..  

Each year, on the new year day, we say goodbye to the previous year not realising that every moment of that year & the years before that has sublimated into the depth of our being... 

A building up of our past in terms of words , deeds and actions.. Karma... 

A new year therefore presents to us an  opportunity to change our Karma..

We look behind & ahead and take resolutions.. Some people follow them, some  lose them half way and most others forget them the very next day..

Lets translate this great buzz of new year wishes into a determination to change the lives of people including ours to bring about happiness.. 

Lets look back and see 

how many lives we touched 
how many lives we changed
how many friends we made 
how many friends we lost
how well we took care of our elders
how well we took care of those less endowed than us
how good as human being we evolved..

This determination itself expands the life state by multi-fold and creates a buzz in our own life that propels us to take interest in people, in their diverse nature, in their viewpoints, in their circumstances, in their weaknesses and in their strengths and accepting this diversity as something very awesome, intriguing, and amazing. 

IF WE HAVE ANY SPECIAL ABILITY OR STRENGTH,  IT IS GRANTED TO US BY GOD FOR NOT BULLYING THE ONES WHO DO NOT HAVE IT BUT FOR HELPING THEM WHO NEED IT.. 

Let everyday be a quest -  whom can I help today.. silently, behind the scenes , unsung..

Let this real buzz start connecting the hearts

lets us all become help centres in our own right 
let us make this new year a fresh start to connect with more and more lives
lets change more and more lives
help more and more lives 
&
discover indestructible happiness!!!

Happy new Year to all of you and waiting to hear the stories of  Changing Lives  from all of you in the new year.. That alone can and shall make the new year A VERY VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.

                                                                                                                                - Pakhi-

Editorial note - Happy New Year

On the 5th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma , I thank all the readers  from US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Poland, Russia and many other countries for their contributions, comments and suggestions.

Like all new year days, once again the air is buzz with greetings. Heartfelt wishes flowing across and reciprocated. No doubt everyone look forward to a bright and fulfilling year ahead but wishing the same for everyone elicit the most fundamental desire of humankind : Peace and Harmony.

Music is melodious because of mellifluous harmony of the seven different notes. Have you ever seen a large no. of audience captivated in a spellbound musical performance. Irrespective of their class, creed, language or ethnicity they all get inspired quite similarly and feel enriched. Something fundamental deep in everyone's life is tickled to create such unity of response. However , this something fundamental is not easily manifested. This something fundamental need inspirational performances to breakthrough the depths of hearts and unlock the caged humanitarian instincts.

Let the year of 2014 be the year of such inspirational performances on the stage of life by many of us to inspire many many of us to together unleash a wave of humanity that nurture humanity.. Lets all determine to change something with in us to bring about human revolution in our lives and give such inspirational performances..

Forbearance, I recently learned an explanation for this word which I find quite germane to the context: Good natured tolerance to the delay or incompetence perceived in the action of others..

I feel such forbearance shall be the core of all the human revolution that we need to undergo for the grand spectacle of inspirational performances.. 

Happy new Year to all of you and waiting to hear the stories of inspirational performances from all of you in the new year.. That alone can and shall make the new year A VERY VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.



                                                                                                                                - Pakhi-

Editorial note - Happy new year 2013

As we celebrate the 4th anniversary of Delta - to - Sigma , I sincerely thank all the viewers for their encouraging comments and ideas. The viewers came from US, UK, India, Germany, Russia, Slovenia, Australia, Canada, Poland and also Brazil. 

There were  ideas & suggestions received from some noted people in their fields too which was very inspiring and we shall make efforts to include them into our forthcoming posts.

Every year the New year charges the air with messages of best wishes, resolutions, hopes and happiness ,joy and celebrations.  This year too is the same. It is indeed very heart warming to receive and reciprocate these best wishes for each others happiness and joy. 

It seems like a dream when the humanity rejoice together and express their gratitude to its creator by pouring out the sublime and quintessential HUMAN Spirit.  

Having survived the Mayan foreboding of an apocalyptic end of the world,  we need to take firm steps  to preserve our  environment, ecosystem and humanity. Anything that belittles  Dignity of  LIFE is violence and violence must end.

Editorial note - Happy New Year 2012

On the third anniversary of the Blog , I once again extend my heartfelt thanks to all the viewers for sending encouraging comments and ideas through out the year. I also wish all the audience a Very Very Happy New Year -2012.


The Blog has grown tremendously in the last 3 years with the viewership extending from United States, UK, India, Germany,Russia , Canada,  Australia, Poland , Slovenia & India. The overwhelming response for the posts My Expressions - Package, My Poem - Mother and The Iridescence, My sketch - Water and Wind to name a few particularly was very inspiring. It is really heartwarming to see people expressing their conviction in the power of "GOOD".  


The New year as I always say has a buzz in the air..Buzz of  Best Wishes for each other , every other and all others ..Determinations, Resolutions, Hope with a bit of reflection on the past create positive vibes that resonate to illuminate every heart.. as if the humanity comes alive to celebrate Life..


Behavior as the Human Being - Well Mannered, Compassionate, Caring, Helping, Thoughtful, Motivating, Inspirational, Persevering & Respectful :  is the need of the today's world.....


Some may refute this as a maudlin cry... Some may agree with a know all attitude, Some may add a pragmatic note to this, Some may deride you for being idealistic & simple...


We shall not loose hope and continue to march ahead with our own Human revolution..


This is the New Year Resolution of Delta- To- Sigma Family..


Wish you again a very happy new year.

Daily Life - Happy 2011

Second Anniversary of my blog as the Year 2011 usher in with renewed determinations and hopes in hearts of millions of us. This a very special occasion as we all wish each other success, prosperity and happiness. We want all to be Happy and Cheerful.

Today also happens to be the Birthday of a very special person - one who design,innovate, care, and over all smile very warmly...A very happy birthday to the Grand Lotus ..

I feel encouraged when many of you say my blog has helped you overcoming the blues. I feel a strong sense of appreciation and gratitude should drive us rather than arrogance and ego. There are people who scoff at such suggestions as being foolish and unrealistic. They feel being emotional is not being worldly wise. I feel being worldly wise with emotions is difficult and need individuals human revolution hence many people take the easier option of remaining narrow mindedly focussed on their self interests.

Recently we attended an outdoor workshop in which there were certain activities like rock climbing , river crossing etc. were performed by participants. Many of these participants were not fit enough to even attempt such activities but I noted that cheered up by the crowd and the cries of BuckUps , propelled their hearts and they did these activities successfully. The crowd supportive applauds worked wonders for them to go beyond their abilities. I was wondering if they would have done the same if the crowd was shouting deriding, threating or scaring remarks.

My Expressions - Happy New Year

Today is the first anniversary of the Blog and I really thank all the readers who have sent me encouraging comments and notes. I also thank my fellow beings to keep giving me food for thoughts, gems of wisdom and the experiences to enrich my own repertoir of hopes & dreams.

The new year opening is again abuzz with the rustle of optimism and bon homie.The Greetings and best wishes, determinations and resolutions are illuminating the hearts once again.

As we advance our journey with renewed vigour, let us make pledge to value each of family member, friend, colloegue & neighbour.Each of them have a mission and a role to play in our life.

Many times we treat them in an unjust manner or ignore their contributions in our life and bear grudges. Such grudges become the roots of unhappiness in our own heart. Let us rewind, relook, rejuvenate the strained bonds.

Wish You a very peaceful, happy and fulfilling new year with stupendous successes.

Happy New Year - 2009

As we usher in the new year of 2009,the heart is filled with new hopes, aspirations & dreams.

Warm wishes for happiness fill the air with an upbeat alacrity and in this backdrop of joy and optimism I humbly unveil the Blog Delta-to-Sigma to all of you.....

Delta denotes Differentials and gaps  and Sigma represents the integration and completeness...

Our life too is journey through the plains of Deltas and Sigmas driven by the inspirations we pick and drop..

To me this space is an  extraordinary milieu to connect to millions of hearts ....a bit thru my self expressions in the form of My poems, My Artshade and My Expressions..and much more thru learning and sharing by all with all..Brave Hearts, Whiz Hearts and Zoom Hearts and many more to discover......

 Delta to Sigma -

A life has lot of meaning, a life a has lot of voids. 

Dreams realised and hopes shattered. 

Happy moments and sad memories. 

Hard struggles and tough victories.

Peaceful tranquility and gory wars,

Reasons of logics and absurd plans,

But in the end - it is all about,

What you think is what you are.

There are times of  mellifluous singing 

There are also times to rise from ashes

Deltas are differentials...

Sigmas are integrals...

Delta signify the microcosmic 

Sigma denotes the macrocosmic..

It is about 'Part' and the 'Whole'...

And the 'Part' that contains the 'Whole'...

It  is about the drop in the ocean

It is about the ocean in the drop..

Deltas  are the nine worlds of hell, hunger, animality, anger, rapture, tranquility, learning, realisation and compassion..

Sigma is about the universal consciousness.. The one truth....The Buddha within us...

Delta to Sigma signify the transitions from nine world  to the one truth and vice versa...The drama of our daily life...

Delta to Sigma is the joy amidst the differentials and integrals of life.... Joie de vivre

The joy of life

The joy of simply being alive...

And thus Delta to Sigma will capture nuances of our lives....
More fulfilling, 

More joyful 
and More Heart warming..

Examples of fortitude, courage, spirit, love, determination, joy, togetherness, pain, hurt, mind, heart, music, poetry, writings, art... All constructs of of daily life...


It is about the sheer mesmerism of the panchromatic planes of our lives...

OUR LIVES!!
