New look (again)






For a lark, I decided to shave off my hair when we went to Tirumala. Quite stupidly I haven't been properly documenting the various stages. But for starters here's a photo taken today from my cellphone camera, couldn't find my normal one.
I'm quite kicked by the new look and wondering if I can keep it permanently. Its a bit ironical -- we read that the traditional rationale for shaving your head when going to a temple is that its a surrendering of the ego -- by reducing your 'face value'.

Sneha -- I don't keep in touch with recent cricket so I don't know any bald recent cricketers. But there was one chap Syed Kirmani couple of decades back !

M - Your blog is very cool, but it doesn't sound like you at all. Photos are fantastic and give me a complex. To be a bit rude, I wouldn't have thought you would recognize zazen if presented with it on a silver platter. Do you update your blog when under the influence of controlled substances ?
Sounds like you've been out of the country for a while now ?
Also saw your Mt Rainier thingy -- very cool. I wish I could get my act together to do something like that.

Best, Vijay

Between Britney Spears and you, the former wins hands down (bald or not).

Sunil -- why would you even try to judge me in a talent pool containing Britney Spears ? Wrong sex, wrong continent, wrong universe..
