This Diwali, trade the city lights for Ladakh’s autumn gold.
There is something extraordinary about Ladakh in autumn—sunny days and crisp nights.
The Postcard in the Himalayan Willows, Leh, already voted among the world’s most stunning resorts, sits amidst 13 acres of willow orchards with spectacular views of Stok Kangri. An all-suite retreat with signature 800 sq ft heated suites, just an hour’s flight from Delhi. A beautiful base to explore Ladakh.
Call 79995 55222 to plan.
Escape to a new luxury. Escape to Ladakh @PostcardHotel

I am a bit sceptical about what we call blessings. I believe the ultimate source of blessings is within us. A good motivation and honesty bring self-confidence, which attracts the trust and respect of others. Therefore the real source of blessings is in your own mind.

Nobody can take one to the heavens, so purely, so instantly, as Van: put him onstage with music around him, and the transport is instantaneous. No need of long-winded talk of the Perennial Philosophy, just listen to the Man: youtube.com/watch?v=6IuNJuTx…

By studying samples analyzed by the Curiosity rover, scientists have taken another step toward understanding whether life could have ever existed on Mars.
A new study suggests that non-biological sources cannot fully account for the abundance of organic compounds found in a sample collected by the rover.

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:
“It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.
“There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.
“If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the ‘medicine closet’ and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That’s why you should always have a nutrition choice!
“Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity.”
