TIDINGS  OF  LOVE


                              Tidings of love are coming along the morning breeze 

                              White clouds of joy are floating in the sky with ease 


                             There, new season paints the horizon with colors rife

                                Here, pangs of love bring new charm to my life


                                 Within my heart, buds of desire are sprouting

                           Into my garden, encore entrance, the spring is making


                         Lover's arrival at my doorsteps, makes my heart flutter!

                               Where is my fate going to take me, I wonder! 


                                                                                                 Ramesh Shah

ISM      Ism is an ideology held with such fervor by its believers that it leads them to forcefully oppose any system which differs from their own. History is replete with such ideologies and they are prevalent even today. The genocide of Jews that took place in Europe during the middle of twentieth century under Hitler's Nazism (belief in Aryan Supremacy) still makes our heart tremble with disbelief. Under Stalin's communist rule in Soviet Union, millions of innocent people lost their lives. During the campaign of collective farming enforced in 1950s under Mao's communism, hundreds of thousands of people died of starvation or systematic killing in China.      We have witnessed the collapse of communist economic system near the end of twentieth century. We have also seen deep recession that occurred in U.S.A. in 2008, when capitalist market system was allowed to run without any checks.      No one holds monopoly on truth. Mahatma Gandhi's lif...
