Throughout my life, I have always been extremely passionate about knowledge and wisdom
At one end of the spectrum, I am extremely passionate about knowledge management for individuals, teams, organizations and global communities and networks. It became my profession, as a knowledge management consultant, since 1995.
At the other extreme, I am passionate about what you might call 'higher knowledge', philosophy, especially moral and spiritual philosophy and/or ethics. I am passionate about both the ancient wisdom, especially eastern philosophy, and modern scientific knowledge, whether it be about quantum theory, neuroscience, nanotechnology or even molecular biology and molecular computing.
I am interested in all the major world religions and their universal teachings of Love, Compassion and Wisdom. I have a special interest in the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism and the Hindu Vedas and Upanishads (Books of Knowledge).I am interested in the study of consciousness, and practice yoga and meditation.
I am also a Director of Intellectual Property for a Film, TV and Video Production Company and I am passionate about great storytelling, using the best entertainment and information technologies.
My work with knowledge management, my study of the ancient knowledge and wisdom, and my contemplation and meditation over the past 25 years, has led me to believe that, at a deeper level, we are all interconnected as one. My work on the world wide web involves daily communication, collaboration, learning and knowledge sharing. It is very easy for me to perceive the web as a prototype for the development and understanding of the notion of a collective human brain, or one thinking global mind .
More intensively, my work has led me to believe that all human beings are capable of achieving a higher state of knowledge and knowing. Some call this special insights. Some call this the 'sixth sense' beyond seeing, hearing, feeling, touching and tasting. Some prefer to call this intuition. I believe that this higher knowledge is also accessible through meditative states of mind. I believe that an enlightened state of mind is achievable by all.
But my greatest belief, and my greatest concern today, is that many people around the world, if not most, do not believe that we are all connected as one, at all, but, based on our five senses alone, the belief is that we are completely separate individuals. And this is the primary cause for all the problems and suffering that we have in the world today. It's just like flat world / round world thinking.
People would immediately act completely differently to one another if they felt a sense of interconnection, a sense of oneness. Quantum theory is based on notions like quantum entanglement, superposition, and phenomenon like wave function collapse, which postulate a highly interconnected world, and the world wide web can enable us to connect all our thoughts across the planet in radically and fundamentally new ways. I am convinced that it is only a matter of time before science and/or technology will be able to help us prove oneness in an ocean of mind..
The wisdom of the ages teach us to 'treat others as you would like to be treated yourself' . This is absolutely right, ethically and physically, and especially in one highly interconnected world.
If you are interested in my thoughts and my work with knowledge and wisdom, whether it is about practical daily issues and challenges of knowledge management, or whether it is about my perspective and experiences about the meaning and purpose of life, or both, you can find my work as listed below.

My area of interest is writing ,reading books,and managing things.Request you to view few of my articles in this knol like Role of mentor, Change agents etc.These kind of ideas always revolve arround my mind.I am always busy thinking.As per my idea there should be a person who just have to think and deliver solution.I myself feel comfortable in managing rather than sitting and writing a thousand lines of code.I am interested in Quality management.Since I am a very young to the industry I need some guidence ,that will help me in order to build my successful carrier.
