His early education was from Hare School, a premier educational institution in Kolkata. It was during his school days, that he inculcated a strong sense of determinism in achieving his mission.

TO REALISE BRAHMAN, IT IS EASY FOR THE NON- INTELLIGENT BECAUSE THE MORE YOU ARE INTELLIGENT, THE MORE YOU ARE ATTACHED. SEE THE NON HUMANS, THE ATTACHMENT THEY HAVE WHEN COMPARED TO HUMANS, IT IS ONLY FOR FEMALE. A BIRD IS THERE TILL ITS YOUNG ONES ARE ABLE TO FLY, IT GIVES PROTECTION. SUBSEQUENTLY THE LITTLE ONES ARE LEFT FREE AND IT GOES AWAY WHEN IT DESIRES. IN THE SAME FASHION IF YOU SEE THE QUADRUPEDS, (COWS, GOATS, ETC) THEY ARE ALL ATTACHED TO THEIR LITTLE ONES ONLY FOR A LIMITED PERIOD. SUBSEQUENTLY, WHEN THE CALF IS ABLE TO WALK AND SUSTAIN ON ITS OWN IT ‘GETS AWAY FROM ITS MOTHER’. -KAMAKSHI BABA Dear Member, “Why don’t you wait here for some time? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?” Guruji asked Neeraja one day when she had visited Guruji’s house in the morning.

  • Free Trade: What Now? by Jagdish Bhagwati This Is the Text Of
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Columbia University Academic Commons Free Trade: What Now? By Jagdish Bhagwati This is the text of the Keynote Address delivered at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland, on 25th May 1998, on the occasion of the International Management Symposium at which the 1998 Freedom Prize of the Max Schmidheiny Foundation was awarded. Ever since Adam Smith invented the case for free trade over two centuries ago in The Wealth of Nations, and founded in the same great work the science of Economics as we know it today, international economists have been kept busy defending free trade. A popular children’s story in the United States, by Dr. Seuss, has the refrain “And the cat came back”. The opponents of free trade, ranging from hostile protectionists to the mere skeptics, have kept coming back with ever new objections. The critiques we have had to confront have often come from those who fail to understand the essential insight of Adam Smith: that it pays me to specialize on what I do best compared to you, even though I can do everything better than you do. Economists call this the Law of Comparative Advantage: each nation would profit from noncoercive free trade that would lead to such specialization. When asked by the famous mathematician Ulam: “What is the most counterintuitive result in Economics?”, the Nobel laureate Paul Samuelson chose this Law as his candidate.1 Skeptics within Economics But the most compelling skeptics have come repeatedly from within the discipline of Economics itself.

  • Aleksandar a R
    D ALEKS URIC For ReviewA only ND ALEKSANDAR A R BEYOND BORDERS DURIC WITH GLENN WRAY BEYOND BORDERS THIS IS THE INCREDIBLE STORY OF “An inspirational read.” ALEKSANDAR DURIC Bryan Robson Former captain of England Born in Bosnia in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and Manchester United Aleksandar Duric overcame a difficult childhood to become a junior canoeing champion. Against all odds, he made an unlikely appearance at the 1992 Olympic Games whilst the fires of the Bosnian War raged in his homeland, a war that had tragic consequences for the Duric family. A nomadic career in football followed, before Duric finally found his feet — and his home — in Singapore. It was in this Southeast Asian nation that Duric truly made his name, becoming an all-conquering force in Singapore’s top domestic league and going on to represent the Singapore national team more than 50 times. Told in a refreshingly frank and honest manner, Beyond Borders is far more than a footballer’s memoir. Duric’s tale of tragedy and triumph, adversity and adventure, is as surprising as it is inspiring. “A gripping account of hardship, heart and hustle with almost no connection to the glamour and glory that fans associate with the modern-day game.” Steve Dawson, presenter, Fox Sports Asia Marshall Cavendish BIOGRAPHY/SPORT Editions ISBN 978-981-4751-05-6 ,!7IJ8B4-hfbafg! For Review only “Aleks has been a superb ambassador for Singaporean football. His professionalism is exemplary and to this day he remains a role model to all professional footballers for his discipline and dedication.
