Finally we sold our Bangalore property. Being an NRI the process is tedious. I will give all the steps here so that it might be useful. Below are the main steps
1. Power of Attorney - this is first step if you don’t want to go to India for registration. Take 2 witnesses 1/7
If Apple tells you your iPhone needs a new battery because it keeps dying, do this first.
I went from charging three times a day to 48-hour battery life in one night.
I hope this helps you as it has helped me:
Apparently, this is one of the earliest known photographs of the sacred Kedarnath Dham, taken in 1882.
Couldn’t take my eyes off it.

Just the abode of Lord Shiva, cradled by the Himalayas
Back then, the yatra demanded time, endurance, & faith. The journey wasn’t incidental; it WAS the pilgrimage.
Today, access is easier. And that’s a good thing because it opens the experience to many more.
But perhaps something still needs preserving?
The ability to slow down & savour the experience of traveling.
Because journeys are about who we become along the way.

“While spacewalking I realized something, I used to think I was scared of heights but now I know I was just scared of gravity.”
― Artemis II Astronaut Reid Wiseman
I’ve often used the Samudra Manthan as a metaphor that is invaluable in business and policy-making.
Because whenever you churn deeply, whether in society, business, or within yourself, the first thing that often surfaces is toxicity.
The Amrit comes later.
When facing turbulence,
Strength comes not from spreading the toxicity.
But from containing it.
When poison rose from the ocean, Lord Shiva did not react in anger.
He absorbed & held it.
May we all cultivate stillness, resilience and the courage to transform.
Best wishes to you all on the auspicious occasion of #MahaShivratri2026
