Whats there in a name !




Mahākula kulinārya sabhya sajjana sadhavah
Amarakosa, (Sanskrit Thesaurus ca. 450 AD) defines Aarya thus: "An Aarya is one who hails from a noble family, of gentle behavior and demeanor, good-natured and of righteous conduct.

Airyanəm Vaējah

The word "arya" (in the form āriyā, آریا), in the modern Persian language, also means "noble", and is derived from the ancient Farsi word `Ariya', which itself is derived from the ancient Persian word `Arya'.

After a lot of deliberation (9 months & 9 days actually ;-)) my folks have taken the second decision as 'parents' (the first one was where to give me the BCG shot - my bum or my arm) !!!

Thank you for all your blessings.

Time for poo-poo...

O Aarya, ye of noble family, etc etc, none of the admirable traits that your name foretell shall help you in this demented planet that you have been fated to be born..
I am sure albeit you shall make your forebears proud by shining forth thru your life nevertheless...
