Review: Behram’s Boat 0

Often people spend a lot of time and money on their favorite passion or interest and finally find that no one is interested
Behram’s boat is the story of a retired Parsi insurance agent, Behram Rustomjee whose wife died several years ago.
After his retirement, he has plenty of free time, and he becomes an alcoholic drinking excessively, causing problems for himself and his married daughter Persis.
Tired of cleaning up the mess her father creates due to his alcoholism, Persis gets her father admitted to a sanatorium, so that he gives up his drinking habit.
Due to the noise which children in the vicinity create, Behram is not able to sleep well, so he goes out to shout at children. Upset at his sleep being disturbed he also destroys the paper boats of the children who are lead by Pesi. In the verbal argument that ensues, the young boy taunts Behram on what he has achieved till date.
The Parsi newspaper is owned by Dorabjee and Behram’s daughter works Persis there. Dorabjee publishes an article on the declining Parsi population which was 75000 and will decline further. This gives Behram the idea of having a boat in which the young Parsi people will travel to Iran where the Parsis came from and hopefully they will meet fall in love with each other, marry and have more Parsi children to increase the Parsi population.
Though he initially rejects the idea, Dorabjee realizes that the idea has potential to boost the newspaper circulation. So he decides to go ahead in building the boat in Salaya, Gujarat, with the help of donations from the parsi community and others. Behram is so obsessed with the idea that he gives up on alcohol and works on the boat himself, living in salaya himself. What ultimately happens after the boat is built forms the rest of the story.

Review: The Hooligan Turned Holy Man 0

One of the reasons why engineers from top colleges in India leave the country, is because the government agencies are extremely careless and incompetent making fake allegations without any proof against hardworking professionals from top colleges, to ruin their reputation completely. They then waste crores of rupees of taxpayer
money to find non-existent proof, and refuse to admit their mistake in falsely accusing an innocent person
The government agencies then expect the person who they have falsely accused to agree to identity theft, give up his or her savings,resume, otherwise they do not allow the person to make any money in india, Usually people who make a mistake will not repeat it in future, yet the government agencies continue to slander innocent people
to cheat, exploit them for the rest of their lives. They refuse to acknowledge that people change.
The book Hooligan turned Holy man is the story of Sangli baba, who is becoming increasingly popular in the area where he resides, having a large number of followers. Sindu is a journalist with a newspaper who is assigned to interview Sangli baba and find the reasons for his popularity. She goes to the address she is given and locates the house. She finds that he is living in a old small house with his wife.
Sangli baba tells the story of his life, that when he was young, he was involved in illegal activities, theft, extortion and similar criminal activities for ten years. However, when he took a supari to murder an old man, he was filled with remorse, so he surrendered and was imprisoned for ten years. However, due to good behavior he was released after seven years, and then he wandered all over india for self discovery. He met some naga sadhus who explained the right way to deal with all the problems people faced, using their experience. So he returned to his home town and took up a job in a garment factory.
He then used the sutras he learned from the Naga sadhus to deal with problems and help others who are also facing similar problems. He then describes the different sutras which can help a person deal with their difficulties better.
The book is divided into various chapters like Impossible is possible, living with anger, peace is internal, change your perspective, enjoy the culinary delights, live the stages of your life well.
Kindly note that raw/cbi/indian government employees and their associates like greedy goan bhandari scammers slim bull dog owning sunaina,pooja, tejas chodan, siddhi mandrekar,greedy goan gsb housewife EXTORTIONIST robber riddhi nayak caro, kolhapur/panaji sindhi scammer school dropout naina premchandani who looks like actress sneha wagh, her scammer sons karan, nikhil, bengaluru brahmin cheater housewife nayanshree, wife of tata power employee guruprasad, indore robber housewife bespectacled deepika/veena, gurgaon haryana scammer mba hr ruchika kinge, stock trader amita patel are not associated with the blog in any way, since they do not spend any time reading, writing, refuse to pay the domain renewal fees, yet make fake claims after stealing data, in a financial fraud, cybercrime, government SLAVERY beating Anthony Levandowski’s data theft from Google to get very good government salaries at the expense of the real domain investor, reviewer who is making great financial losses because of the online, financial fraud, correspondence theft.

While the advice is relevant for most people, it is not of much use to the reviewer, who is victim of government slavery, cybercrime, slander, financial fraud, denied her fundamental rights which almost other indian citizens including criminals have .
However, the book is written in simple and easy to understand language, and can help people who are stressed to review their activities, way of thinking and find out if they can handle matters differently.
