This is my nth attempt at blogging and I still do not know how far my renewed enthu will take me into this endeavour. Well, this time I am into inspired blogging, i.e., am inspired by all those people who are blogging around me… Amir Khan, Sekhar Kapur and my next door neighbours in IIT B. But more than the stars and superstars, it’s the people closer at home who inspire me into blogging, part of the reasons are the same “Js” — “he/she owns a blog, why can’t I?” and the other part relates to this idea: “got to document my feelings/experiences somewhere, lest I actually become famous and have no time to hire a biographer
:)”. These are sources which need both citation and acknowledgement. Well, then here I am! But interestingly, these days I am frankly more intent on desgining and aesthetic building of my blog than any serious content writing. Anyways, who cares for what I write! There is so much better masala to be read from the Internet that poor atmas like me are left wordless in wordpress
.
Hey! That reminds me! How d y like the name Iris? Any guesses as to what it means? Hmmm…of course u guessed right! It is the name of a flower (remember Van Gogh’s famous painting “Irises”?) But it is also the name of a Greek Goddess…the Rainbow Goddess spreading colours all through the rain dappled skies…
Hmm Iris also means the colored part that filters and controls light in the eye. So Iris can also be called “filter” and the “eye” can be comapred to the mind for the mind alone visualizes. So “Iris” refines information and allows selected stuff to enter the mind. Keeps the mind pure and a pure mind is a necessity for miracles !
Thank you Surya for that amazing interpretation of “Iris” …. Yes, I was aware that Iris meant the core of the eye…something which is called “Putli” in Hindi and it has a significant purpose. But you have given a beautiful dimension to that purpose. Thanks once again

This line was sufficient to make me believe that this blog is a good one
I’ll keep visiting
Iris
You should continue to write. There are very few quality blogs around. You should stick on.
cheers

I am sure you have rediscovered yourself to warrant an updated version “About me”!
‘About me’ is the least in Iris’s agenda of things to be done. I have emotional connection with this ‘about me’ because it is the “first” post on this blog. Can’t update it or change it. Anyway, what is there in a name?
Just wanna input that you have a very decent web site , I the design it really stands out.
You must be a part of a competition for one of the most useful websites on the net. I’d personally absolutely propose this great site! In addition, I mentioned yourself on my very own Bebo webpage, with any luck , that’s cool.
LJVcuO Every time I come back here again and don`t get disappointed..!!
