Saturday I went for the mumbike... I feel i should ride more just to free my mind... but this ride was different.. it made me think...
As usual i stopped to visit the ganapati temple in Mahad... and there i saw a board urging people to buy swadesi products... it was enough to stir the thought process...
I am proud to be an indian... but what about the desi products?? am i indian enough?? i had no doubt about that... but the doubt seeks proof and i looked at myself for confirmation... i was appalled to see that none seemed pure indian...
My shoes... socks.. cap... backpack.. watch... jeans... t shirt... jacket... even underwear ... not to forget my beloved bike... with honda covering half of the name, it cant be....
One thing i know when the mind starts guilt parades on you... create a dilemma... i started searching for something Indian.. i found something... a Karma T shirt... it's indian... and why not non Indian brands when they are made in India... infact i am the person who bought "Made in India" shirt from US...
The dilemma did the trick... my mind left me alone with the meagre issue of my life...like marriage..
today some bay decoration theme in office which showed India as a superpower made me think again...
I googled "Karma T shirt company"
What i found in the results ... none of them was Indian...
Only this time my mind had only one emotion to spare... smile...:D
