Friends, this is not my compilation. Found this on the net… Thought of sharing it here… Hrithik Roshan, who had a speech impediment in the past, recently got the best compliment he could ever receive. There was a scene in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish that required him to give a five and a half minuite […]
Watching ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ on television has always been entertaining and fun. But it can inspire too! Today’s episode of KBC was one such episode- which really inspired, taught and reminded me of a few fundamentals which we often forget or don’t bother to remember. Today there was a participant named Yusuf Mallu, from Rajastan. […]

Have certain words frightened you? for a long time? Words like “hakla”? Have you worried how would you react if someone used that word for you?

While searching for new communication exercises for our SHG, I landed up on a page, which could be ideal for some of us. We all have been thru that phase, whether we stammer or not- where every Shyam, Raghu, Lallu and Bhaiyya is getting a job, left right and center, except us! And we just […]

“All misery comes from fear and unsatisfied desire. When we know that we never die, we will have no more fear of death. When we know that we are perfect, we will have no more vain desires. These causes being absent, both there will be no misery–there will be perfect bliss, even while in this […]
“Even though I doubt Your generosity sometimes, I will continue to trust Your love..” “Even though I fear Your justice often, I will continue to trust Your compassion..” “Even though I can not hear You, I will continue to call on Thee..” “Even though I address you as my ‘Master’, in my heart of heart, […]
Yadgar has requested a picture from Leh; so I am sharing the above. On a different note: I brought back a prayer wheel (as in the first picture) and presented it some one I respect a great deal. A gentleman looking at it, commented spontaneously: how mechanical? how childish? Can you think of God with […]
As a child I believed this. It helped to nurse my bruised ego. It was easy to selectively interpret events: I got through Combined Pre medical test at one go- so it meant that I, a stammerer, must be very intelligent! But what about thousands of others who got through similar tests, and did not […]

Trying to solve this great mystery/puzzle of stammering has been such an enriching and exciting experience for me! A few of my thoughts and beliefs that once i was holding on to so strongly and which I thought will help me to “GET OVER” it, seem to change constantly for the good!One of the most […]

This reply from Windstorm was so honest, humble and powerful, that I am taking the liberty of pasting it here. Honesty is a power by itself. If you can be this honest with yourself, I am sure you can cure “stuttering mindset” much sooner than you think, with no external help..This reply was in question […]
Hello. This is WindStorm again. This time, I’ll share my interview experience. You’ll get to know how I broke the paradigm once you complete reading this post.
