The Brand- ISKCON: Hare Krishna Hare Rama!!

DISCLAIMER It’s hard to satisfy everyone. So if someone can get offended, please don’t continue and close the browser window, and the one who want to read on this go on. Happy reading :-) ************** I am crazy about brands, how they are built, managed and how the propaganda is set for generations to come. While every brand has different USP on which it prospers, it uses two of the most important parameter to count on its success- Consumer  behavior  and Market research.

Secularism’s seed was buried by the great King Akbar. He married queens of nearly three major religions to show how secular he was and tried every possible position of Kamasutra during the night to get his “religious” descen...

I t all started when the angels fell and the devils descended on the planet, a altogether different amalgam was discovered. The descend of   "the fallens" The period of alchemy is rising again,again the discovery of methods to deem a metal into gold and rising is the day when the poor are on the verge of extinction and rich are enjoying their own mouth-melting delicacies and warmth of gold under their wandering pillows. Life is in upheaval, the throne has been abicated well in advance to understand core of wisdom Mr.Paulo Coelho might have a simple answer to not so simple "thinking" as he sparkles his wisdom in his "the alchemist" by saying that- "wisdom is only metal for god's spirituality".. But where we live spirituality exist till the abalone's mother of pearl and scrutinizing more deeply I would say it lies in coveted donation box. Though some of us will say its "aberrant" but for poor its the shortcut to mint...
