The Beauty In Knowledge

Dedicated to: Vanitha Nadaraj.

Mountains denuded of trees
Plateaus carved by human hands
Humans seek to be free
To live in Nature’s land

Where am I to go, I ponder
Away from my motherland?
Even the fields spread asunder
With my own two feet here I stand

A picture paints a thousand words
In poetic caption to tell the tale
Even halted at literary crossroads
This picture will set the sail

Not to uncharted waters of destination unseen
Even with a heavy pen between weary fingers
Amidst the misty white clouds and mountain green
I draw with Nature’s hand for memory to linger

Top Ten Water Fountains

Feng Shui is often discussed as excessive and somewhat misleading to those who are sceptical about its potent “chi” force. It is because of the world’s fascination for invisible, mysterious forces that gets many of us to talk without much understanding about them.

Feng Shui is a natural science. It is based on natural laws and its formulas have been created after centuries of observation of the repetition of the earth’s natural patterns.

Water fountain, be in a miniature in the appropriate corner of the living room or a bigger one in the garden, it symbolizes one’s desire to harness the ch’i. Water is used to activate or slow down ch'i in a room, being highly beneficial for health, wealth and relationships.
A well-balanced water fountain possess the quality of auspiciousness.

Even the smallest trickle of water from any water fountains catches the reflection of light, it attracts the eyes like the natural flow of water in a harmonious way creating the energy of ch'i.

Have you ever wonder why the more colossal the building is, the bigger is the water fountain? No matter from which part of the world, businessmen somehow will not defy the natural force of ch’i.

With the impeccable positioning of the water fountain, the negative forces are compensated with the positive to make what they are “harvesting” sustainable. What do you expect from a casino?


Those who do not believe in feng shui, or ignorant of its power will take the relaxing sound of a babbling brook in their environment as a way to control the humidity level which in turn decreases dust and pollutants.



This ancient science was based on the idea that ch’i (Life-Force Energy) is present in everything that exists in nature– the cosmos, earth, plants, animals, humans– and can never be created or destroyed.

It does not hurt to find out what is feng shui (geomancy) and you will be surprised to learn that ch’i is around us.

These human water fountains require ch’i too, not feng shui (geomancy) but “tai shui!” (big water). They can have an amazing effect on your wealth, romance and general well-being when release as it should and at the right time.

Says him!


He says, believe it or not, take it or leave it!

Can We Blame Him Who Was Only Born Yesterday?

Malaysia can never run short of power-crazy individuals. He is one of those waiting in line ...

This is what he had uttered.

“It is true the BN did not do much for us in the past 52 years but the Pakatan Rakyat has done even less for us in the past two years,” he said.

“BN under Datuk Seri (Najib) is beginning to do for the Indians in major areas and we welcome it. We want to work with him to get a fair share of the nation's resources,” he said, giving reasons why Najib was invited to launch the party and open the annual general meeting.

“We invited Selangor Chief Minister (Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim) to open a culture night the same day but he declined,” Thanenthiran. “We tried… you can’t blame us.”

Najib’s decision to launch the Makkal Sakti party is a milestone in Indian politics in Malaysia.
