I first came into contact with him thru my colleague and friend, Mr.Srividhya. I found that we shared common interests in book collection and Homeopathy. These strengthened our friendship. He used to visit Health Institute, Karaikudi, and deliver lectures on various aspects of Homeopathy, which we found highly interesting and useful. Then we used to exchange notes about books. Now he is settled in Bangalore.
He has been showing interest in my blogs, which is a great encouragement to me. During the initial days of my blogging, he gave me an interview, which finds a place in my blog, BOOKS, BOOKS AND BOOKS.

63,122 views
Published on 28 Mar 2012 by MarcoBelgrade
A guide for teenagers to achieve financial independence and success.
Jim Rohn covers the three places to begin for any teenager (or adult) in their quest for a future full of success, happiness and wealth.
1. Price and promise - the power of vision and setting goals.
2. Personal development - expanding your knowledge through books,
tapes, seminars and other successful people.
3. The principles of wealth - earning, saving, giving and investing.
Over the years, Jim Rohn has heard from thousands of people - many who saw or heard Jim early in their life who later went on to achieve success. Don't let yourself or your family miss out on this powerful 56 minute video that can inspire, teach and lead you to success.
"A very big thank you to Jim, all his staff and all his associates for helping me becoming more valuable to myself, family and the marketplace. Thousands of participants in my banking courses have watched Jim's "3 Keys to Greatness" video. It's been a great way to end my courses. It has been my greatest satisfaction and joy to see faces brighten up as neon signs. They all depart with "It is Possible and I Can" attitudes. May God's best and richest be yours." -- Micah
"I am a huge fan of your "words of wisdom" as I call it. After watching your "3 Keys to Greatness" I have to say, Great, and thanks!" -- Rob McKinney.
Grateful thanks to MarcoBelgrade and YouTube.
Eyecatchers-163: Intolerance

Grateful thanks to Mr.Soli Sorabjee and The NewSunday Express.
My Photo Album-167: Suri with two friends
First is Dr V Yegnaraman, who became the Director of CECRI; next is Suri; and the third one is Dr R Janakiraman,who retired as a General Manager of Hyderabad Batteries Ltd. This photo was taken at the CECRI Men's Hostel during 1970 when the three of us were just Lab Assistants; self being Junior Lab Asst and my two friends, Senior Lab Assts. I retired as a Private Secretary. This is yet another photo I cherish. As the saying goes, with great people, there are ordy people who say they went to school with them or they worked with them. How true!
A Thought for Today-592: Einstein
A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty - Einstein

My Photo Album-166: Prof.Dr.PL.Sabarathinam
Prof Dr PL Sabarathinam addressing a FASOHD meeting. I got acquainted with him when we planned to organize a National Tamil Seminar at Annamalai University, Chidambaram. He was then Registrar of that University. My friend, Dr P Subramanian, introduced him to me. We were working together in connection with that Seminar and that brought us closer. That Tamil Seminar, first of its kind, organized by FASOHD ws my idea and it was a grand success. After that, we requested him to become a Vice President of FASOHD and he very kindly agreed, which brought us even more closer. He was supporting my various ideas and was extending all possible support to us. I cherish his association till this day. May God bless him!
