parisodhana.com is about -
"revisiting, rediscovering and redefining Progress, Discipline, Character, Seriousness, Purity, Responsibility and Loyalty which form the core values of Human Beings. The world is facing a serious problem of Illusion. Illusion is dressing/covering the absolute truth. A syndicate of selfish and utterly irresponsible humans in the form of money launderers and power mongers have hijacked the steering wheel of world progress by successfully creating illusion. Parisodhana is about identifying and characterizing illusion. The illusion is the root cause of failing economies or misery. Illusion is affecting countries, society, individuals, intellect, science, technology and progress of the world as a whole. Every Blog/post probes indirectly or directly this problem."
Here I go, down the memory lane!

- Got Civil Engineering in a Private College - 1991 EAMCET
- Then, 1991, thinking of Private college and paying for fee of Rs. 10000/- per semester was a huge burden. But my parents decided to take the burden. My attitude then was to complete Ph.D. whether by Engineering or by B.Sc,M.Sc. I was thinking I would do B.Sc, M.Sc Electronics if I dont get Engineering and decided not waste time in 2nd / 3rd attempts. That I considered waste of time
- Sept 21, 1991, I got interview call from Andhra Pradesh Agricultural University (APAU) then. Now its ANGRAU ( Acharya NG Ranga Agricultural University) - Government. I had two options, Dairy and Food Engineering and Agricultural Engineering.
- At the end of counseling, I got Agricultural Engineering, though I had inclination for Dairy and food since I had this desire to apply what ever I study. The happiest thing - Got in a Govt. College, Still in Engineering, More Applicative ,Directly related to Farmers and Agriculture, my favorite too and over and above the financial burden is completely eliminated from my parents head - Rs. 1000/- per year (may be less). - That's God's play - I say to my self.
- I always consider that the 4 years (1991 - 95) of Engineering Life was the best part of my life - Pure, Innocent, Meditative, Highest Learning Activity, Energetic, Freedom, Divinely, No Maya/Illusion/GIRL influence, Complete Control.
- The most comprehensive engineering training: The Subjects
- Mathematics - Semester 1, 2 and 3
- Physics - Semester 1, 2
- Chemistry - Semester 1, 2 and 3
- Botony - Semester 1,2
- Agronomy - Semesters 2,3
- Some pesticides , fertilizers related course - 1 semester
- Electrical Engineering - 2 Semesters
- Surveying and Leveling - Concepts of Civil Engineering - 2 Semesters
- Mechanical Engineering Concepts - Workshop - Foundry, Molding , Carpentary - 2 Semesters
- Heat and Mass Transfer - 2 semesters - One of the toughest subjects - Ragged my Mind - So that became my Favorite Subject too
- Food processing engineering - 2 Semesters - My Favorite Subject too
- Farm Machinery and Machine Design - 3 Semesters - One of my favorites - tractor design, plough design, etc..wow!!
- Thermal Engineering, Psychrometry - 3 semesters - my favorite
- Engineering Drawing - 2 semesters - The subject I admire most - this actually give dimensions to my mind - from 1D, it incorporated 2D, 3D and 4D as well.
- Agricultural Engineering - 2 Semesters - Best Subjects
- Irrigation - Wonderful Subject
- The best parts: Industrial Training - I think it was 1 month in Ballary, Karnataka. The first time I spent money for clothing, dress. First time I bought Jeans for myself. First time I came to know about North Indian Food - I meant Roti. The real north Indian tandoory food I came to know only in MSc - 14th - 18th Oct 96. We practically learnt about various farming techniques, irrigation , Nala bunding etc. I got an opportunity to fix the surveying and levelling instrument. I felt happy I applied my mind.
- In my 3rd year , final semester, the college conducted an essay competition - 'Novel Ideas in Agricultural Engineering' - We were supposed to identify a problem and provide a solution. Initially I felt disappointed because I was not getting ideas. That was a very embarrassing situation. After 3 years of study, if we cannot identify one problem relevant to farmers, it should be considered shame. The next thing I did was : I started looking around, while walking, while traveling, while playing and while listening to lectures. Within 3 days, I identified 5 different problems and provided solutions to the same and submitted that as my essay for the competition. I was not expecting but it was a pleasant surprise, I got that prize. Its not prize that was satisfying, it was the journey, the process that was more satisfying.
- The most satisfying event of my Engineering was : One of the 5 problems/solutions was accepted to be taken up as my 1 year project. It was given the best project ranking for that year. We designed a knap-sack multi-nozzle boom sprayer. The satisfaction was getting better since, it was put in 'Kisan Mela' and 'Kisan' came and asked me when it will hit the market and how much does it cost. - Wow!! that was the day - I realized what is research, what should be the objective of research, where it should finally reach and why.
- Essentially, realized - Our studies should solve our problems - Period
