A lot of changes have taken place since January 6, 2006, when that blog was posted.
Now, in August 2009, Rajarajeshwari Nagar has grown into a preferred area for residence and business. It continues to grow.
There are more than 20 schools and also a junior college. Nearby are several engineering colleges.
Reachout in Rajarajeshwari Nagar, a periodical, is published here. As many as 10,000 copies are distributed.
In spite of influx, it is still a peaceful area to live and work in.

For the Love of Painting
Painting is a passion for me; something I must do.
I see colour in everything and beauty in the natural world around me.
You need to find your OWN passion about your art and your growth as an artist.
Art is an evolving process, not a single product.
It is a journey whose end might be dreamed about but never quiet reached.
Because, if you reach it, what more is there?
There are no shortcuts to good painting.
Good drawing ability comes with repetitive lessons. Draw every day.
Paint what you love.
You need to practise, practise and practise.
Learn from others. Take workshops and apply the knowledge there to your own work.
Learn about design, value and composition.
Art is a journey, not a destination.
You will go through the beginning stages of copying finished works, copying from photographs, painting from your imagination, then, hopefully, combing your developed vision with only a moderate tipping of your hat to source material.

Peace has Many Names
In India, the word shanti means peace.
In Spain, the word paz stands for peace.
In South Africa, the word vrede denotes peace.
In France, they use the word paix for peace.
In Germany, the word for peace is frieden.
In Israel, the word shalom means peace.
In Japan, the word heiwa is used for peace.
In Sri Lanka, the word Samaya means peace.
In China, the word heping denotes peace.
Remember, names may differ, but all of us want the same peace.
You will have peace when you: see what is good, hear what is good and speak what is good.
Hence, see, hear and speak good to have peace.
