We have received a link from Vivek (Pune). It is an interesting article. Here is the “soul” of it: “..The fact that all participants appeared to benefit from this study’s combination of treatment focused on speech management and treatment focused on acceptance of speaking differences also speaks to another important debate within the field of […]
Today i tried a new stuff with my speech…..the basis of my trial was that the biggest fear that occupies me is that i will get entrapped into a big block and will not be able to speak at all. So, why not try it consciously?? Why not, with a stranger, I just go into […]
When I was 18, I used to think that I will rather be dead at 50 because life of old men can be so tragic and painful! I am 54 now, and think that I am doing fine. In fact, sometimes I feel that quality of life has never been so good: free of impulses, […]

Yesterday, a young man (sensitive, well educated, regular guy) came for counselling. After some “blah blah theory” we went out for “practicals”. Something happened- interesting but really painful for the young man. I hope he is reading these lines. Names are not important- we are all same- under different labels- fearful and insecure. So, friend, […]

आजमाले आजमाले आज खुद को आजमाले , फिरता है तू कबसे ये दिल सम्हाले|| बोल क्यों ये लब(होंठ) पर रुके है, तेरे सजदे में झुके है,पल पल बिखरे है कितने उजाले(प्रेरणा), क्या करू क्या सोचता है,चैन दिल का ढूंढता है, अपनी किस्मत को जगा ले, बीच का पर्दा(खुद और खुद के बीच में) उठाले, […]

I found this very relevant passage, from Dr Sheehan, a pws and an authority on speech therapy for pws in USA: Acceptance of the problem belongs at the start of therapy, not at the finish. It is the role that the stutterer must accept, not the old stuttering pattern. That is what the stutterer entered […]
Friends, I was always quite fascinated by Buddha’s life and message. He talked about four noble (eternal) truths but remained silent on being questioned about “God”.. This silence has been interpreted differently. Most people think that he talked about misery and the way out of the misery since misery (dis-satisfactoriness of the world and its […]
There is a girl. She was excellent in her school life, was average in college and was just good in her engineering. Her performance and passion was decreasing day by day from school to engineering. The girl always thought that what is the reason behind this declination but she never got any conclusion. That girl […]
In Indian philosophy, there is a well known trick: Neti, Neti (Not this, Not this). Path of exclusion. When you have explained what Spirit is NOT, whatever is left is BOUND to be Spirit; When you have decided what all you DONT want to do on a particular evening- you are left with very clear […]

I had an presentation in front of my class on this Friday. Before saying anything about this presentation, I want to say something about my first presentation. It was in my first year. I had a lot of fear in my mind, and always thought that I would not stammer at all in front of class. But […]

Hello to all my stutter friends. Perhaps I am writing a post here after a little long time. I really enjoyed my first national conference which I attended with my friends. It was never forgettable experience for me. I enjoyed every moment which I spend there. Now stammering doesn’t seem like a problem for me […]
