Most of us don’t move enough. In fact, we don’t walk much or even fully breathe. The human body is made for movement, which is life. When movement stops completely, we call it death. Movement starts with the very first experimental kicks of the foetus within the mother’s body. It registers as a tickle and […]
Soli Sales-Tax thought no end of himself. He genuinely believed that that he is God’s gift to women and often called himself Soli-Sharukh Khan. Whenever he met a pretty woman he would spread his arms wide and say, “SOLI… naam toh suna hoga!” On a lucky day, the girl would say, “Get lost.” On an […]
In Occultism, we learn that everything is cosmic-energy. Every single thought is powerful energy which has a far-reaching effect, on not only us and our outside circumstances, but also on others. Cosmic energy is all around us, flowing in a constantly evolving upward spiral. Hence, all of us are constantly bathed in a sea of positive […]

Every soul comes to planet Earth for a purpose, which may be to pay off its Karmic-debts, balance its own soul-energy, sacrifice an entire lifetime for others, to heal itself, to heal other souls, or to gift something to others, like great music, great art or great literature. As per numerous religions, before incarnating, the […]
As soon as the lockdown was partially lifted, Meherbai’s Mandli, which was totally pent-up and frustrated confined to their homes, arranged a short trip to Lonavla. They met early morning at the designated place in Dadar Parsi Colony, where their cheer-leader Rusi-the-rock-star awaited them. Dhanji had worn a ganji and shorts to look natty. Farida-fuiji was bursting […]
After we all reach a certain age, beauty can come only from a loving heart and a friendly nature. Those unable to give and receive love can’t be beautiful.

The khanar-pinar, farnaar-harnaar, masti-majha-karnaar Mandli met for lunch at their usual South Mumbai club for lunch.

Because the form said. ‘Fill up in capital’. So, he went to Delhi! […]
Marriages may be made in heaven, but today, most do not last too long on earth. So, what goes wrong? Why does the wedlock turn into a deadlock? Why does a ‘better-half’ become a ‘bitter-half’?

Meherwanji was sitting quietly on his easy-chair on Saturday morning, reading Parsi Times. Meherbai felt neglected… Meherbai: I wish I were Parsi Times! Meherwanji: Why? Meherbai: Then, you could hold me lovingly with both hands every Saturday morning. Meherwanji: Ok – but keep in mind that I don’t read the same Parsi Times every Saturday! It’s a brand […]
