arrogance and pride
your expensive lenses
camera your egoistic
soul deprived ..you
are more dead as a
photographer than
alive tears on the
soul of a tourist guide
did you really shoot
india the camera
replied ..
And that one talent which is death to hide
Lodg'd with me useless, though my soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker, and present
My true account, lest he returning chide,
"Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?"
Humility is the richest Jewel you can wear....and you know how I love Jewels.....it is the greatest ornament of life...even more than my tatoo!...so go to all of your tasks and greet the day with a humble most gracious heart<3!

This is my first ring for RAW 2011. It is stainless with 8 inset .5 carat brilliant cut diamonds. This ring brings the "Show off" element to a minimum while still being internally extravagant. The piece is a humble brushed stainless steel, with diamonds that can only be seen if the ring is taken off of the finger. It's brilliance and value are only known to the wearer and whomever he/she chooses to let in on his/her little secret. It is what is on the inside that is of value.

Humility does not mean thinking less of yourself than other people, nor does it mean having low opinion of your own gifts. It means freedom from thinking about yourself at all.
-William Temple
This picture may look kind of lame. But I guess there is a reason. I don't want this project to feel like this, to feel like I'm being conceited and just taking pictures of myself every week to feel good. And I most definetly don't want it to come off that way. I put a lot of thought in these and i have a lot of ideas. So hopefully next weeks will be better.
If not, who cares. I'm doing this for fun.

I Thank all my Facebook friends in humility for remembering me on my birthday , and I reciprocate your wishes with love hope and a good life ahead for all of you.
Now there are people who often forget their birthdays for reasons known and unknown, even their closest of kin dont remember them on their birthday, and some are unfortunate like me to remember their birthday as long as they live on the face of this planet, I say unfortunate because my dear childhood a life living man forcibly closed the doors of his life , he just gave up the fight , and strangely we lived to live like him , he was our strength and our hope , we were a coterie of friends , but we were also three closely bonding friends with a happily lived and shared past.
We studied at Holy Name High School and two of us passed out the unfortunate friend left it prematurely becoming a successful entrepreneur, we all three got married , we had kids , we kept in touch.
We met at Strand Hotel that was owned by Ramesh Mulchandani one of the three , we were really very thick as friends almost blood related , and this picture was shot near Shelly's hotel close to Radio Club , the lane we passed as Ramesh Mulchandani stayed at Garden Hotel Road.
Ramesh Alva Anna was the third friend , a Shetty , he made the two of us a Shetty too, gave us a taste for South Indian cuisine and stayed at Sangeeta Building Strand Cinema, I stayed at 3 Mohini Mansions, a few blocks away..the other friends in our group were Mohan Sadhwani, Ram Parsani, Jaggu and Bharat Mulchandani..
But yes the three of us were quite inseparable ,we were destined with good wives ,great children, and on 10 December Ramesh Alva just left us and decided to call it a day.
It has been several years now and though we hardly keep in touch, with each others family this day is a day of sadness and remembrance .. that we too will have to go one day.
I dont celebrate my birthday at all but I wont impose my sadness on any one of you , I reciprocate your good wishes , and because I am a Hindu Shia born in India , following the tenets of Islam pertaining to Hussainiyat , am in the midst of Moharam , we are austere , we wear black clothes we mourn and relive the Martyrdom of Imam Hussain the Gandson of the Holy Messenger .
So this is 10 December as a footnote of my life as it adds another page bewildering me all the more , I have skipped a poem as life is nothing but a drop of tear within the soul of Humanity.
I pray to God to give Ramesh Alvas family the strength to move ahead in life with his guiding spirit as the soul of a Father never dies ... he is always there Om Shant Om..

Fra Angelico's Virgin of Humility (ca. 1436-38) from the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam dates to the artist's period of artistic maturity. In a radical and innovative departure from the accepted canon of artistic symbols during the Italian Renaissance, the friar's Madonna holds a stiff sprig of lily (a Christian symbol of the Virgin Mary) in her right hand, usually reserved for interpretations of the Annunciation. Seated on a throne covered by a golden fabric with intricate designs, Fra Angelico painted the Virgin Mary with the sweeping folds of her monumental deep blue cloak. The Virgin Mother holds the infant Jesus in her left arm; the Christ Child gestures gently to grasp his mother in an endearing expression of sensitivity and humanity.
The holiness chart shows the summarized level of your personal holiness in 100 different areas of your character and conduct, as it seen with God's eyes.The holiness chart acts like a MIRROR in which you can clearly see what you are going to GET! in your life in each of 100 areas in return to your own conduct in these areas, based on your holiness level in them (as in old sayings: “You get what you give”). The qualities for which your URGENT! attention is required due to the lowest levels of your holiness in these areas are marked with a spark. Start working immediately to raise the level of your holiness in them to avoid enforced humility from God. Also www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yAjdyVX0Qs&feature=youtu.be

The Hinduism I shoot is pristine sacramental and has humility as its essence through the cosmic eyes of divinity .
I shoot Lalbagh Chya Raja every year for his followers and my Hindu friends ,,I have a camera I make positive use of my pictures to spread the beauty of my cultural inheritance and the power of our collective ethos as Indians .
I only hope and pray that the humility of Lord Ganesha in the avatar of Lalbagh Chya Raja touches his volunteers that they dont get carried away by spiritual arrogance ,, which is a heady substance that does not sustain the spirit of the Lord..and his message of Peace .
Soon I will be shooting Goddess Durga her workshops her pandals and her Visarjan too including the Pitru Paksh that I have always shot come what may..
I am thankful to those who helped me shoot Lalbagh Chya Raja the karyakartas the committee members of the Lalbagh Chya Raja Mandal and Mr Sudhir Salvi Mr Ashok Pawar without their help I would have not been able to shoot this visarjan set of 781 pictures all shot in a few hours at the Pandal and in and around the Pandal.
MANNING NATIONAL GUARD ARMORY, Albany, Georgia, April 28, 2014 – With the humility of its namesake, the Manning National Guard Armory dedication ceremony was unpretentious and earnest Monday afternoon. The crowd of family, friends and former Warriors-in-Arms paid homage to the Georgia National Guard’s first senior enlisted advisor and State Command Sgt. Major William ‘Billy’ Manning with the renaming of the home to Company ‘F’, 148th Brigade Support Battalion, Georgia Army National Guard. Manning’s ‘Make it Happen’ leadership style made a dramatic impact on all he encountered including the State of Georgia National Guard’s seventh Command Sgt. Major and first African-American to be accepted into the position, James Nelson. Now an active U. S. Army National Guard advocate Nelson credits Manning with getting his career underway.In an interview in 2011 Nelson reflected on his career and the man who made a difference by turning is career around.“It was early in my career and I was an E-5 (Sgt.) contemplating leaving the Georgia Guard after a reorganization,” Nelson recalled. “After speaking with him he said, ‘give it a minute,’ was able to transfer me into a different (job specialty) and it was my first introduction to making it happen by taking care of Soldiers.”Manning would later pin the rank of Staff Sgt., E-6, on Nelson and becoming a mentor to the fledgling noncommissioned officer.It was the State of Georgia’s eighth senior enlisted advisor, Command Sgt. Major Phillip Stringfield who initiated the designation change to honor the legend who was famous for his heavy-handed training tactics to punctuate the need for situational awareness when you are in the business of combat arms.“His style could put you off initially,” Stringfield said. “Sgt. Major Manning was a direct, no-nonsense leader whom I’ve attempted to mirror in my style of leading our Soldiers.” (Georgia Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Tracy J. Smith)

That guy is coming into the Church of the Nativity through the "Humble Door" (also known as the Door of Humility). We went out through it.
It was created in Ottoman times to prevent carts being driven in by looters, and to force even the most important visitor to dismount from his horse as he entered the holy place.
If there is any advice Col. Kirk Gibbs can give to his successor, it is this: Lead with honor and humility.
As Gibbs, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District’s 61st commander, prepares to relinquish command of the LA District July 19 to Col. Aaron Barta, he offered up some advice and reflected on the past three years as the leader of one of the largest Corps districts in the country.
There are many things Gibbs said he is proud of when it comes to the LA District, but three things stand out: the District being recognized two years in a row as a "Best Place to Work" in the Corps; completing Weed Army Hospital at Fort Irwin, California – the Department of Defense’s only Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-Platinum, carbon-neutral, net-zero certifiable hospital – on time and within budget; and the one-on-one time he was able to spend with employees in the District.
It is the people Gibbs said he will miss the most – the employees and the District’s close partners across the four-state area.
“I have never focused on relationships like I have here in this District, and I sincerely believe it is part of the District's culture,” he said. “When projects are tough, the close relationships get us through those challenges and ultimately deliver the program.”
During his time with the LA District, Gibbs has overseen a multimillion-dollar program that provides engineering, construction, planning, contracting, real estate, emergency operations, environmental and regulatory services to military, federal, state and local governments across a 226,000-square-mile area of Southern California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. That also includes leading about 750 military and civilian personnel with a wide array of expertise.
But leading people is nothing new to Gibbs, who has served for more than 24 years as an active-duty Soldier, leading both military and civilian personnel.
“Each person is different, and I have learned that good leaders get to know each person individually and then lead them in a way that brings out the best in that employee,” he said.
Providing priorities and a solid intent on the District’s missions, particularly disaster response operations, helps employees stay focused on what’s really important, he said.
Gibbs will now serve as the chief of staff at the Corps’ headquarters in Washington, D.C. There, he said, he hopes to be an advocate for all of the Corps’ districts nationwide.
“I feel that this District and the great people are responsible for giving me the incredible opportunity of being the Corps’ chief of staff,” he said. “The people have taught me so much, and I will take that with me to make a positive impact on the Corps’ enterprise and help our Districts deliver our programs in civil works, military, Interagency and International Services, real estate and regulatory.”
Gibbs knows how the importance of mentors and having a good support system have played in shaping his career, and he credits his parents with instilling in him respect for others; his wife, Kim, who taught him to endure all challenges, no matter how great, with grace and dignity; and his former chief of staff – Col. Steve Hill – for giving him tough jobs to prepare him for success.
“(Hill) gave me tough jobs that I thought he could have done at the time, but as I look back, the toughest assignments he gave me in that civilian organization at the Corps headquarters prepared me for District command and enabled me to achieve the goal of commanding at the battalion, brigade and District levels,” he said. “I also remember he told me I would be a chief of staff for the Corps one day. He was preparing me for that. I didn't believe him, but that is my next job.”
And, as for additional advice he can share with Barta, Gibbs provided these words of wisdom:
- Be prepared to change leadership style when leading a District of professional civilians. Don't lead them in the same way as Soldiers;
- Engage with people and get around to see them across the District's entire area of operation. Don't sit behind a desk;
- Study hard initially and learn the policies, processes and programs. “You will never be the expert, but you must prepare yourself to make effective decisions as quickly as possible”;
- Always provide a commander's intent and an end state. The civilian workforce appreciates that; and, lastly,
- Lead with honor and humility. “It isn't about you. It is about the District's people and our vital mission.”
As for the future of the LA District, Gibbs said he hopes future leaders continue to change the culture to an organization that is more risk tolerant in streamlining processes and moving projects forward; deliver the Department of Veterans Affairs and Customs and Border Protection programs phenomenally – on time, within budget and to the highest quality; and to remain a "Best Place to Work" in order to retain and recruit talent to the high-cost living area of Southern California.
“I want the District to do what it always does and ‘knock those programs out of the park,’” he said.
[Jesus] humbled himself. -Philippians 2:8
Tibetan-born Sherpa Nawang Gombu and American Jim Whittaker reached the top of Mount Everest on May 1, 1963. As they approached the peak, each considered the honor of being the first of the two to step to the summit. Whittaker motioned for Gombu to move ahead, but Gombu declined with a smile, saying, “You first, Big Jim!” Finally, they decided to step to the summit at the same time.
Paul encouraged the Philippian believers to demonstrate this kind of humility. He said, “Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” (Phil. 2:4 nkjv). Selfishness and superiority can divide people, but humility unites us, since it is the quality of “being one in spirit and of one mind” (v. 2).
When quarrels and disagreements occur, we can often diffuse them by giving up our right to be right. Humility calls us to show grace and gentleness when we would rather insist on our own way. “In humility value others above yourselves” (v. 3).
Practicing humility helps us to become more like Jesus who, for our sake, “humbled himself by becoming obedient to death” (vv. 7-8). Following in Jesus’ footsteps means backing away from what is best for us and doing what is best for others.
Jesus, You gave up Your life for me. Help me to see each sacrifice I make as a reflection of Your humility. In putting others first, let me honor You.
Humility promotes unity.
