Cost Effective Solution to save Coconut trees during forth coming water scarcity months due to El Niño : Olla Irrigation - Ancient Wisdom for Modern Droughts. 🏺 Echoes of Ancient Clay pot Irrigation Long before the term olla entered agricultural vocabulary, ancient Tamil farmers practiced remarkably similar methods. In Sangam‑era Tamilakam, clay vessels called “ māṇ paṇai ” or “kulam paṇai” were used to store and seep water near tree roots - especially for coconut, banana, and areca palms.   These pots were often placed in earthen basins (thottam) lined with coir, husk, and leaf mulch, creating a natural moisture‑retention system. Inscriptions and temple garden records from regions like Pollachi, Thanjavur, and Madurai mention such paṇai neer vaḻi (pot‑water channels) as part of sustainable irrigation networks.  This continuity of wisdom - from ancient Tamil pot irrigation to modern olla systems -  shows how indigenous knowledge can guide regenerative farming in the...

Alcohol Is International Number One Killer

Alcohol is the number one killer Internationally - WHO report. It is sad. It is even more sad when governments are sponsoring it. Recently I read an article that there were lot more young widows in India because of death of their husbands who were provided with more alcohol during this election. It is really sad to see young children growing without their fathers. It puts the family into below poverty levels and society becomes spoiled. When WHO warns, then it is something to be taken very seriously. The number went high because there are more drinkers now in India 


and China. 

Alcohol is evil - Alcohol is so dangerous and it can cause high level damage to individual. family and whole society. I have seen young people bolstering and taking pride in drinking alcohol. It is completely wrong. Alcohol will damage so many organs in your body and lead to an early death. There are so many institutions that can help to end the alcohol abuse. Google and join them if you need help to stop using alcohol and become a better human resource. 

My earlier articles about rise in alcoholism and it's evil causes. Hoping and Praying that we can eradicate this excessive alcohol consumption problem from the face of earth.



Say no to alcohol. Drink fresh fruit juices and eat healthy food instead. Be healthy to play with your Children and Grand Children instead of succumbing to drinking alcohol and leaving the young ones to suffer. It is not worth it.

I also feel satisfied that I have personally made several people to stop drinking alcohol, come up in life, enjoy time, support and life with their kids. I sincerely Thank God for giving me that opportunity.

On 2017 - Still Alcohol is causing more deaths. However good to know there are People like Mr. Harman Singh working against curbing the sales.

Greening the Environment

As deforestation is occurring in the name of development especially road expansions all over World,  it is very important to plant more and more trees to green the environment. Trees are very important for the environment.  They not only provide important oxygen but also are very important for rainfall for the areas they are in, apart from so many other benefits. Every one knows it is one of the important tool to fight the human induced climate change as it acts as great carbon sink. In India, Great Dr. Kalam envisioned the importance of trees, persuaded many to plant as many trees as one can. Recently, I had privilege to communicate with many volunteers, who want to plant as many trees as they can to reap the benefits, especially by the future generations.
