Jaspal Bhatti Death Numerology


Astrology is among my favourite subjects and Jaspal Singh Bhatti who died few months ago was among my favourite personalities.
Recently, in my leisure time I thought of doing a numerological research on his life. I was shocked to see the association of numbers in his life.

(Note- All these predictions are on the basis of Vedic Numerology only)

Firstly I will start with his name numerology-

J+A+S+P+A+L=17
S+I+N+G+H=17
B+H+A+T+T+I=17

Number 17 indicates that the person would be remembered after his death. He had three times 17 in his name so power of this number gets increased. Hence, He will always be remembered through his humorous shows.

If we add 17 i.e. 1+7 we get 8. It has been observed that three eight bring prosperity and richness. He was definitely a rich man because his name makes 888.

8+8+8= 24 and he married his wife Savita Bhatti on 24 March.

His Date of Birth was 3/3/1955. So, his soul number was 3. This makes 12, 21,30,39, 48, 57, 66, 75, 84 his auspicious numbers. He was born on Thursday and it is a day of Jupiter which represents number 3 in numerology. This increases the power of 3 in his life.

Number 3 indicates that the person would be a simple, truthful, assertive and humorous. I believe he had these qualities in him. This number also makes you a good leader and administrator.

One thing which will surprise all of you is that he took birth on Thursday and died also on Thursday. He died at the age of 57. As mentioned before, it was among his auspicious numbers.
He died on 25/10/2012. If we add 25 i.e. 2+5 we get 7. Seven is a holy number. I believe he must have got heaven.


Rest in Peace Bhatti Sir.

5 Problems of the Government Sector of India

I am working in the government sector of India and I have observed that there are some common problems in all the sectors. The problems are as follows-
1.  Too Much Written Communication- Written Communication is useful because you can keep a record of it and can use it for future evidence. But, too much written communication becomes a headache. You spend a lot on the purchase of papers. The maintenance of these papers becomes a challenge for the staff. Unnecessarily, they have to keep such documents which have no value. These useless documents also occupy lots of space in the office which could be used for other purposes.
Employees do not keep records or keep incomplete records because they
have a mindset that no one will ever check them. It becomes very difficult to know the past position of any organisation. Bundles of documents you can find in any government office but only handful of them is useful. These records can be scanned and can easily be maintained in the computer. E-receipts and bills will also be useful. But, this old tradition of record keeping is so prevalent that no one wants to change it.
2. Lack of Planning- When we plan things we get a direction for our work. Future is very uncertain but through planning we can determine the solutions of the problems beforehand. This helps us in being proactive.“If I will get 8 hrs for cutting down a tree. I will spend 7 hrs in sharpening the axe.”- Abraham Lincoln. In the government sector of India not much focus is given to planning.  Things work on a Big Guess. Everything is speculative than being calculative.
3. Non-Acceptance of Lady Boss- It is difficult to become a Leader but if you are a Lady then it is even more difficult. Mostly, in any corner of the world it is men who are working and women look after the house. When Men see that a woman is leading them then they take that thing on their Manliness. They don’t say it but they become more non-cooperative and non-obedient under a female boss. My advice to all female bosses is- Lead like a Mother. Women are superior because God has given them the position of a mother and mother will always be superior to anything. Bring out that hidden potential in you and you will become a great leader.
4. Ego clashes of Higher Authorities- “I am not afraid of an army of Lions headed by a Sheep. But, I am afraid of an army of Sheep headed by a Lion”- Unknown
It is very difficult to become an Officer in the government sector of India because of the High Competition. People who beat this competition and get the seat of authority become so much egoistic that they do not even bother to listen to someone below their rank. A cold war goes on among the Officers just to prove who has more dominance. They leave not a single point to ridicule each other. These ego clashes hamper the functioning of the whole organisation.
5. Under Utilized and Unskilled Labour- A computer operator is looking after the accounts section. A clerk is acting like a superintendent. In short, you can find Mr. X doing the job of Mr. Y. It happens majorly because of two reasons firstly, He or she is in the favourites of Boss and secondly, He or she is not in the favourites of Boss. They are given the job which nowhere has connection to their past qualifications and experience. These are the Under Utilized Labours.
Unskilled Labours are those who are doing a job but as they don’t have complete training of their work they always under-perform. Proper training is required to be given to all these people. Else, More Errors- More Troubles.

Fear of Criticism

According to a research the second greatest fear after death was fear of Public Speaking. I don’t ridicule the study but as per my observation the greatest fear of mankind is Fear of Criticism.

Students cheat in exams not jus’ because they want good marks but because they fear that if they will not secure good marks then their parents or friends will criticize them. Women tolerate violence of their husbands because they think if they will leave their husband then people will criticize their failed marriage. Employees take bribe because they fear that if they will not expand their standard of living then people will criticize their economic condition. People lie because they have a fear of criticism and punishment.

 We slowly in life lose the courage to be ourselves because deep inside our heart we have Fear of Criticism. Anyone in this world can manage success but it requires strong mind and esp. Strong emotions to manage failures. If we want to do any solid work then we should control this fear of criticism first.
If we will read Bhagvad Gita, a holy book of Hindus, one word which comes again and again in it is Be Fearless’. 

We must recognize our rights and stand-up for them if you do not then other people will define your role; you will lose your freedom and life space.
How to conquer criticism?
·         If you feel someone has hurt you then always answer to that person. No matter whether he’s innocent or not
·         Take a pause and think of an effective answer.
·         Never let a criticism stopping you from doing something you like.

Your progress depends upon the response you give to your fears and failures.

What are the similarities in Bible, Quran and Bhagvad gita?


Once I had to write an essay on Mahatma Gandhi. I read some articles on him and a short book covering his major life events. I came to know an interesting fact about him. He read Bible, Quran and Bhagvad Gita to connect effectively with Christians, Muslims and Hindus. I liked his idea and I decided that one day I would also read these religious books.
Finally, I have read them. I have observed that there are 21 common messages in these books and they are as follows-
1.      There is only one God of this Universe
2.      He is formless and believe in Him
3.      Remember God through prayers
4.      Preach about God and His creations to other people
5.      No religion matters to God, only your truthfulness matters to Him
6.      God gives us life and He only kills us
7.      We are responsible for our actions
8.      God gives us rewards and punishments for our actions
9.      Earth is only a resting place for us
10.  Every living thing has a Soul
11.  Angels, Hell and Heaven exist
12.  Good people go to Heaven and Bad people go to Hell
13.  Idol worship is the lowest form of worship
14.  Don’t find God in idols
15.  Give respect to the resources that He has given to you
16.  Give charity to the poor and needy people
17.  Do not lie
18.  Do not steal
19.  Do not commit adultery
20.  Do not hurt people physically or emotionally
21.  Speak gently
These messages may sound general or common to few but it's a FACT that all these books talk again and again about these 21 messages only.

Myths of Leadership


From past 30 days I am working in a government organisation. Here, I meet a large number of people daily. They have their own problems and methods of dealing with them. I also meet the supervisors/leaders of the different departments. After meeting, so many people for so many days, I came to a point that there are certain myths which people have on leadership.
Myth 1- Leaders are dominating. So, one who dominates more becomes a better leader.
Reality- Leaders are pleasing. They are like energizers. Whenever, you see them you get a positive energy which motivates you to perform efficiently. If you get an ill feeling while working under your boss then he or she is not a leader for sure.
Myth 2- Leaders give orders.
Reality- Leaders give suggestions. They never meddle in others work. They only monitor the work and give their suggestions to improve it. A leader has to learn to give powerful suggestions not orders.
Myth 3- Leaders shout too much else no one listens to them.
Reality- Leaders persuade to get things done. Donkey and Dog both make tremendous noise but that does not make them a leader among other animals. When you persuade people you give them valid reason(s) to follow you. In my observation, people follow the right person automatically. You don’t need to force yourself on anyone.
Myth 4- Leaders are highly intelligent people.
Reality- To become a leader you don’t need to be highly intelligent. A great leader of history Changez Khan- was an illiterate. He didn't know to read and write. To become a leader you only need to have an ability to understand the feelings of others. What people want and how you can help them is the center of focus for a leader.
Myth 5- Leaders have strong Luck.
Reality- Bullshit!!! Leaders make their own destiny. I don’t deny that luck factor does not exist in any success. But, people succeed in life not just because of luck. They succeed because of discipline, direction, determination and dedication they have for their goal. Many leaders lived a very misfortunate life. They received lots of embarrassment, criticism, danger and risk. Some of them even lost their family. Their life was not easy. They managed their failures properly and kept on persisting towards their aim.

What are Values?


I often see people talking about values. Once, my teacher said, ”Great Leaders succeed because they have values in them.” But the question is What are Values? How they are helpful in our own personal and professional success?
The word value has been derived from Latin word valuta which means to be of some worth or to be strong. Therefore, value is something which makes us strong and valuable for others.
Now we can say that, “Great Leaders succeed because they are strong and valuable for others.”
In my opinion, values depend on the role you are playing e.g. Value of a religious person may not be as same as the value of a political person.
Values can be classified into 6 forms-
1.       Political Value- People who have political value also have extreme Need of Power in them. To do competition with others and then trying their best to defeat their opponent can be easily seen in them. Force and Fraud are part of their values. 
      2.  Business Value- People who have this value have ability to calculate their gain and loss easily. They are focused on their personal progress. Anything that can bring success to them is part of their value.
3.       Societal Value- This value is based on the Need of Recognition. People who have this are very image conscious. They want people to love them- respect them. These people can do anything to be the Center of Attraction. They can even get nude to get attention of the people. Film Stars are clear example of this value.
4.       Skeptic Value- These people do not accept things easily. They question everything. Scientists have this value that is why, they strive to discover the truth and hidden mysteries of the world. Their main objective is to find the truth and for that they can do anything.
5.       Spiritual Value- This is the best value. It makes us realize that we are not just human beings but also spiritual beings who want to get connected to the Infinite Power. This value makes us united and helps us in controlling our negative emotions.
6.       Artistic Value- These people don’t want to get into any conflict. They are good in negotiation and are also good in adapting with the environment. They are busy with their own work and their own world. This value is common in Diplomats.
Many people have a Myth that Values are firm but actually they are not.
In reality, Values are semi-fixed. They may change or they may not change. Circumstances have direct effect on our value system. 
There is nothing like good value or bad value. " Every good thing becomes bad at certain level and every bad thing becomes good at certain level" - Swami VivekanandaJust do the right things with right values.

5 common mistakes Investors do in a Share Market


I have done my internship in a company dealing in Financial Securities. There I observed some good investors and some average investors. But some mistakes which were common in all investors are-
  1. Blind Trust on Broker- Many investors don’t know on which share they should invest. They never study about the rise and fall of the market. They give complete authority to the Broker to decide a company and number of shares for them. Some Brokers for good commission ditch their clients and compel them to invest on some share which has a high future uncertainty. You buy a share or you sell a share, your broker will get a fixed commission on your every transaction. My Uncle lost a good amount of money because he blindly trusted his broker. After that incident he never ever invested in shares.
  2. Lack of Knowledge of Financial terms- If you are investing in a share market atleast, know what is the meaning of a share? Beside that you should also know about debenture, dividend, interest, debit, credit, brokerage, liquidity and commodity. I have met people in share market who don’t even know what is a share and then also they invest on it. Without the knowledge of financial terms investing in the share market becomes more complex.
  3. Share Astrology- Astrology is a good science but very limited people have its accurate knowledge. Astrology can predict whether you have good analytical and speculative skills or not but it can never predict that which share will rise or fall. Many investors get into the trap of Share Astrologers who predict a share for them and they invest on it. In a share market, believe more on your own intelligence than on any kind of occult science.
  4. Not studying at all- Learning is a continuous process but unfortunately after getting a job people stop it. Share market is a place where you will have to be aware of what is happening around you. New plans of the company, New plans of the competitors of the company, Political changes, Economic stability of the country, Potential of the sector you are investing etc. You should know. Even things like War and disaster can affect the share market. Purchasing a share just because it is rising is a dumb philosophy of buying a share which many investors and brokers both practice.
  5. Lack of Patience- Patience is a great personality trait. You can achieve anything if you work and wait. Many investors want to become rich in one night which is next to impossible. There is no shortcut of success. When they lose even a small amount of money either they stop investing or move to some other stock option. If you have analysed about the company you are investing deeply then there are 70% chances that you will not fail. Every plant grows slowly let your investment also grow.
