The grooving journey of GRUBMODE -Vaishnavi K.U

The India Saga Saga |

Vaishnavi, from Bangalore, is a graduate in bachelor in business management, a jewellery designer and a growing blogger. With her skills in business and jewellery designing, the combination has been perfect for her to create and ensure to portray upcoming fashion and designs.

Vaishnavi began her journey as a blogger back in 2015 with nothing but dedication to start this journey on her own. And when everyone doubted her professional choices, her family believed in her. Her husband and in laws have been a tremendous support system and she keeps growing with their blessings and love. When they saw her passion towards blogging, they knew Vaishnavi would never stop till she achieved her goals, and thus, supported her on every step of her life, with every downfall and wins, her family has been her backbone, always. She began blogging as GRUBMODE to create awareness about small and budding businesses and street food outlets which were growing and were actually really amazing. She also creates content on outfits and styles to wear for events or occasions and affordable clothing hauls and basically her lifestyle in general!

Vaishnavi‘s need to create content every day made her feel content, as if she has achieved something on her own. It was never like ‘the need of the hour,’ it was more of ‘I really want to do this’ for her. She creates her content with all the love and passion that she has towards her profession, and with the sense of giving her audience some amazing and worthwhile content. That is when she realised this is her forte and this is what really keeps her happy and satisfied. “Mantra can be defined only when you’re satisfied with your own self and your own work, if not trying to aim until we are satisfied with our work. I am my own boss and responsible for everything I do is what keeps me going,” says Vaishnavi. With her dedication and hardwork, she truly is one of the finest ones to look up to for motivation.

Vaishnavi has often come across questions regarding and if her marriage has created some drawbacks in her career and blogging life and how come she’s okay travelling alone without her husband, to which she says, “Marriage shouldn’t stop you from pursuing your dream, if either of us have to travel for work, it’s absolutely fine unless your partner understands you and supports in your decisions. I am grateful to find my person who doesn’t differentiate in opinions.” Now that’s one ideal marriage and the way the two support each other is just what we all need to do in our own lives. Support our partner’s decisions and always be by their side, no matter what.

Her life hasn’t been the easiest to cope with, yet somehow Vaishnavi managed and enjoys every aspect of her life. She believes in living in the moment and spreading love and positivity, always. Live and love is what her life mantra is and she has been living that mantra ever since. Facing challenges and just being out of your comfort zone to simply live in the moment is truly a magical experience and that is an applaudable thought.

Lord Shiva is both figurative and abstract Nirakaar or Sakaar

The India Saga |

Lord Shiva is revered with the hundreds of synonyms. Shankar the Well Wisher, Mahadev The lord of lords and Parmeshwar The Supreme God.  Shiva is a part of Trimurty the Hindu trinity that includes Brahma and Vishnu.  Shiva is the Supreme Lord who creates, protects and transforms and destroys the universe yet revered along with Vedic Gods Vishnu and Brahma. 

Shiva has pre-Vedic tribal roots having his origins in primitive tribes, signs and symbols as the explorers have found early prehistoric paintings at the Bhimbetka rock shelters near Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. These carbon dated pre-10,000 BCE period rock paintings are depicting Shiva dancing, Shiva’s trident, and his mount Nandi. Rock paintings from Bhimbetka is depicting a figure with a Trishul possibly as Nataraja seems to be of the Mesolithic age. The Pashupati seal was found during the excavation of the Indus Valley archaeological site of Mohenjo-Daro carbon dated 2350-2000 BCE.  It is showing a possible representation of a yogi or proto-Shiva figure as Pashupati the Lord of the Animals. Pashupati is one of the form of Lord Shiva as per Shaiva philosophy. It establishes that Lord Shiva is originally a Dravidian God. 

There is no reference of Lord Shiva in Vedic period of Aryans except for once in Rigveda.  The Vedas describe Rudra a Rigvedic deity with fearsome powers and who  was the god of the roaring storm. There were 11 Rudras. Shiva shares many features with Vedic god Rudra and viewed as same personality in later Hindu scriptures such as Upnishads, Brahman Grinths and Aranyaka. Hymn 10.92 of the Rigveda states that deity Rudra has two natures, one wild and cruel (Rudra) while another is kind and tranquil (Shiva).

 It seems to me as a conciliatory acceptance of each other’s gods by Aryans and Dravidians when formers arrived in India.  Aryans went a step ahead accepting Shiva as Devadidev or Mahadeva means Lord of lords or Supreme Lord. Shiva is also known as the patron god of yoga, meditation and arts.

Lord Shiva is both figurative and abstract Nirakaar or Sakaar. The iconographical figure  of Shiva is wearing a serpent around his neck, the  crescent moon on the head , the Third eye  on his forehead , the Trishula or trident as his weapon, the holy river Ganga flowing from his entangled  hair, and also holding a  musical instrument  Damaru drum. He is usually worshipped in the form of lingam the phallus God  emerging from Vagina. Shiva is revered widely by Hindus in Indian continent including South East Asia. The Shiva temples out number all other Hindu deities dotting entire Indian landscape.

Lord Shiva is also known as Pashupatinath, the lord of animals. The Pashupatinath tradition is one of 6 major tradition within Shaivism. The Pashupatinath idol is a complete merger of Rudra and Shiva with eight faces. The eight faces represent the various aspects of Shiva in regional Shaivism theology such as Bhava, Pashupati, Mahadeva, Isana, Rudra, Sharva, Ugra and Asani. It is referred as   Ashtamukha or Ashtamurti. There are two Pashupatinath temples which are well known in the world. One of course is very popular as located at Kathmandu in Nepal while another is situated at Mandsaur in the western side of central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The Mandsaur Shivalingam is much larger than Kathmandu Temple. 

The ancient city of Mandsaur has a glorious past in the Indian History.  The City surrounded by villages with fields where farmers grow opium since ancient times. The colorful poppy flower bloomed fields turn the landscape beautiful in seasons. A river called Shivna flows through the city. The famous shrine is nestled on the banks of this river. 

In the early sixties an Ashtamukhi Shiva Linga was found in the riverbed of Shivna by a laundryman, Udaji,  who  used to wash clothes on a huge stone on the banks of River Shivna.  According to legends, one night while sleeping, he dreamt of Lord Shiva telling him that he was washing clothes on his idol.

Next day, it was found that the stone on which Udaji used to wash clothes was  actually a very beautiful huge Shivlinga with eight faces and he was washing clothes on the broad head of idol.   When people of Mandsaur tried to carry the idol to Ujjain, the bullocks did not move a mile. That night Udaji again dreamt of Lord Shiva instructing him that the temple should be built there only. This is the beginning of  constructing Pashupatinath Temple at Mandsaur.

The eight face Shiva found in the reconstructed Pashupatinath temple is from the 1st millennium CE and possesses a rare iconography. The Shiv Ling in the temple is 8′ x 10.5′ and weighs 4.6 tons.  It has been re consecrated into the temple. The upper part of the linga has four heads in a line, while the other four heads are carved below them in the second line. The faces have open eyes, with the third eye on their forehead visible.  Each face has elaborate hair probably reflecting the culture of its time for men. Each wears jewelry such as earlobes, necklace and many other ornaments. As described aforesaid, the eight faces represent the various aspects of Shiva in regional Shaivism theology: Bhava, Pashupati, Mahadeva, Isana, Rudra, Sharva, Ugra and Asani.  According to some historians, this Mandsaur linga is likely from the early 6th century. It was the same time when Nepal  kings constructed  Kathmandu Pashupatinath temple. The eight-faced idol is still the same as it was left by the sculptors in that era, the lower faces have been partially worked upon and they are not as clear as the upper four faces. The shrine has four doors in four directions. The temple built on the river is 90 feet long, 30 feet wide and 101 feet tall. On top of the temple is a 100 kg gold plated pitcher. Every monsoon the water level in the Shivna river rises to touch the holy Shiv Ling of lord Shiva. This phenomenon is termed as “Jalaabhishek” which means worshiping god through the water.

A question comes to mind whether any temple existed in the area in the ancient times  ! Certainly the archeological antiquities and ancient historical references in and around area indicate it. The history of the site is traceable to the 2nd-century CE when it was already a Hindu pilgrimage site and region was known as Dashapura as per ancient inscriptions found around Mandsaur.   It is mentioned by the ancient Indian poet Kalidasa, who praises the women of Dashapura as “so practiced in their seductive movements” in his epic Maghdootam. Ten inscriptions found in the area suggest the Mandsaur site was an important cultural and religious center in the first half of the 1st millennium CE. Nine of these inscriptions are Sanskrit poems, most dated between 404 and 487 CE, and all include invocations to Hindu gods such as Vasudeva and Shiva in various forms. They mention kings of Gupta Empire era, as well as temples of Dashapura.  The sculpture from the temple and other archaeological findings such as the Mandasor inscriptions is called by the historians as the longest and certainly the most beautiful of the Gupta inscriptions reflecting the flavor of life at its best in 

The inscriptions also suggest that the sculpture and temples of Mandsaur were built with resources pooled by the common people, such as silk weavers of Dashapura, who had settled there from Gujarat. However, these inscriptions mention a Surya (Sun) temple, a Vishnu temple and others. They do not mention the Pashupatinath temple. Excavations have yielded several brick temples of Shiva which have been dated to the 6th century, suggesting that Shiva was a prominent deity along with others in ancient Mandasor Gupta times. Discoveries of Sanchi Stoops and Vaishnavite caves depicting huge Varah Awatar and Lord Vishnu resting in the lap of colossus serpent  in Udaigiri Vidisha are the rare highlights of  Golden Gupta periods. Both the destinations are not far off. 

The discovery  of Yashodharman’s   early 6th century two  pillars with Sanskrit  inscriptions on them from a village Sondani  about 4 kilometers from Mandsaur is another solid evidence of the era during which this beautifull Shivalinga was carved.    These record the victory of Aulikara king Yasodharman over the Hun king Mihirakula.  According to historians,  these are notable for their outstanding literary, calligraphic and historical value.  The inscription adds to the evidence in Buddhist texts, such as the memoirs of the Chinese pilgrim Hsuan Tsang who calls Mihirakula as extremely cruel and barbaric, one who killed monks and destroyed monasteries in  Gandhara.   The Mandsaur inscription praises Yasodharman, describes him as having rescued the earth from rude and cruel kings of the Kali age, who delight in viciousness. It also throws lights on the contemporary times.

Finsbury London® launches the world’s first-ever clothing label which deals exclusively in women’s dungarees

The India Saga Saga |

The year 2020 was all about loungewear because the world worked from home but the year 2021 is going to be a little more structured sartorially, hence dungarees may just be the new lockdown look for ladies who want to stay home but still stay in touch with their inner divas. With a protective bib on the chest, tight straps coming from back to front, and one-piece joining bottom to the top, dungarees are the ultimate outfit that keeps you snuggled and free at the same time. It is this inspiration that propelled FINSBURY LONDON® to become the world’s first womenswear brand to present the world’s largest collection of handmade dungarees. It goes without saying that each piece in this collection is unique and a fashion statement in itself.

What makes FINSBURY LONDON® different from other women’s wear brands is that instead of dealing in everything from bottom to upper, maxi to mini and tops to dresses, this clothing company has chosen to focus on just one thing – Dungarees. Each dungaree, thus, is a tribute to young women who love wearing this extraordinary outfit and remain on top of their fashion game.

The company has described the outfit to be better than other outfits because “you need to carry other outfits but a dungaree carries you and sets you free so that you remain focused on what you are doing in each moment.” The FINSBURY LONDON® dungarees are designed in the UK and handmade in India. The brand offers free shipping on orders delivered to both India and the UK while standard shipping charges are applicable on orders to the rest of the world. The brand outfits can be purchased from the company webstore – https://www.finsburylondon.com

The designs, developed after years of research and development, are aimed at staying relevant for longer. The fact that each one of their designs is unique, original & registered under The Controller General of Patents & Designs & Trademark makes each dungaree a piece to own and cherish. The uniqueness and variety of these dungarees is visible in the designs such as infusion of prints with denim, crystal works contrast threat stitching and contrast hem, etc. Some of the most popular articles in the FINSBURY LONDON® collection are – Zebra print women’s dungaree, Blue Gingham Check women’s dungaree, and Zed Black Jogger’s Denim dungaree. Positioning themselves as “not just another clothing label”, Finsbury London’s mission is “to design and manufacture the widest range of sturdiest dungarees for every occasion and each season.

Apart from using only sustainable fabrics, the company ensures that all its trims are developed keeping the highest possible quality in mind. From the metal used to create buttons and buckles to the elasticity of adjustable straps, FINSBURY LONDON® believes in going for the best of the best for the collection.

Not in the ‘rat race’ of cheap manufactured goods, FINSBURY LONDON® is the promoter of slow fashion that is super-premium in quality and limited in quantity. As of now, 90% of their manufacturing work is done by hand, which lends that ‘beautiful inconsistency of human touch’ to each piece, making it unique to wear. The company is proud to announce that all their dungarees are made in India, in a factory that doesn’t indulge in child labour practices, and where each worker gets fair wages and works in a socially compliant environment of the highest standard.

Cyber Attack by China led to the biggest power failure in Mumbai

The India Saga Saga |

Last year, in the summer of 2020, Chinese and Indian troops clashed in a surprise border battle in the remote Galwan Valley, injuring each other to death with rocks and sticks. Four months later a sudden incident happened in Mumbai, India. Trains had shut down and the stock market closed as the power went out in a city of 20 million people. Hospitals had to switch to emergency generators to keep ventilators running amid the coronavirus outbreak which was undoubtedly the worst of India’s time.

“State-sponsored” Chinese programmer bunches had focused on different Indian power centres, the Union Power Ministry said on Monday yet added that these gatherings have been obstructed after government digital organizations cautioned it about their exercises. While the public authority would not verify or refute a New York Times report, in view of a U.S. online protection association’s case mentioning that the Mumbai blackout in October 2020 was essential for an organized cyberattack by China. It said it has endured “no data breach” because of the danger.

The malware was discovered by Recorded Future, a Massachusetts-based company that reviews online digital threats. It identified that the majority of the malware was rarely enacted. This implies just a little extent of malware prompted the Mumbai power blackout. 

The report additionally added that the China-connected danger movement bunch RedEcho may have planted the malware in key force plants in India. “RedEcho has been seen to deliberately use progressed digital interruption methods to discreetly acquire traction in almost twelve basic hubs across the Indian force age and transmission framework,” said Stuart Solomon, head working official of Recorded Future.

Think North Consulting: Building India’s most admirable brands makes them one, too

The India Saga Saga |

Branding, marketing communications and marketing technology firm Think North Consulting carves out a niche for itself in the impact space.

Innovative firms that develop clean technology to deliver safe water, future-facing organizations that further the cause of women leadership, young companies that promote sustainable farming and production practices — these are just some of the impact-driven brands that Think North Consulting services.

A dynamic young brand themselves, Think North Consulting was established in 2019 with one unique mission — to leverage their expertise to help companies make a difference. True to its purpose, it has attracted and aligned itself to brands that create the biggest impact across the globe. Think North Consulting helps these organizations create their brand identity, establish their digital presence and spread awareness about how they are making a socio-economic difference.

The Think North Story

Ever since its inception, Think North Consulting has kept its sight firmly set on a path that takes it ‘Upward, onward, inward’. The firm’s founder Anuradha Agarwal is a self-confessed optimist who believes in the power of introspection and being true to yourself. When she set up Think North Consulting in 2019, she decided to tap into what she knew were her strengths.

Her strategic planning capabilities and acute media intelligence had already earned her some recognition as one of the country’s Top 3 Marketers Under 30 — she was a Young Lions Finalist (Marketing) in 2018 and 2019, as well as a Young Spikes Finalist (Media) in 2018. In addition, an advanced program in AI-Powered Marketing from IIM-Calcutta, coupled with an M.Sc. degree in Communication and Entrepreneurship from the University of Nottingham, had also given her extensive know-how in marketing technology. Anuradha brought these strengths together to establish Think North Consulting — the digital consulting, marketing communications and marketing technology firm that takes brands upward, onward and inward.

From the beginning, Think North Consulting was powered by relationships. Their very first team was made up of a handful of trusted digital experts who all shared immense faith and belief in each other’s capabilities. They were backed by a few trusted clients who offered unwavering support. Together, they worked tirelessly to establish the young firm and build it up from the ground. The team was always genuinely invested in their clients’ journey — picking up their passion, developing in-depth knowledge about the business vertical and adding a unique marketing spin to each brand. Sometimes they would foresee an effective

strategy before the client even realized its need. This practice of going beyond corporate SOWs and adding a personal touch is what helped Think North Consulting attract so many clients from within the impact space. By the beginning of 2020, they had already set themselves apart as a firm that goes the extra mile to drive results.

The 2020 Test of Faith

2020 was a challenging year for many brands — and Think North Consulting was no exception. As retainers were slashed and marketing budgets pared down, Anuradha had a new priority. She had to keep her team’s morale up so that they could continue trusting their own capabilities and keep doing what they do best.

Her optimism and empathy, together with her introspective, human-centric leadership approach worked again. The team leveraged every bit of their cumulative expertise to think on their feet, improvise and adapt, even as the crisis unfolded to reveal new complexities every day. Together, they enabled clients to identify their strengths and reinvent themselves in a way that would help them stay relevant. For some clients, this meant going digital for the very first time. For those in the essential services space, this meant navigating the crisis with a reimagined brand strategy that would enable them to continue their operations as seamlessly as possible. These efforts worked, and clients discovered unexplored new opportunities for themselves. Even in the tumultuous year, Think North was named the ‘Communications Leader of the Year (2020)’ and Anuradha made it to Business Mint’s list of ‘30 under 30 in Marketing and Advertising (2021)’. The firm was named ‘India’s Most Admirable Brand (2021)’ by The Brand Story, and was featured with a digital publication in Forbes, India.

Thinking North, today and always

Today, Think North Consulting’s own goals are very closely aligned to that of their clients — they want to use their expertise to contribute towards a better world. They are always excited by the opportunity to work with impact-driven brands, women entrepreneurs and innovative young startups to help them amplify their voice and influence.

Right from the beginning, Anuradha and her team have always maintained a strong focus on constantly educating themselves and updating their skills to offer the best marketing

know-how to their clients and partners. This has not changed through the years. The team is currently establishing themselves in the Marketing Technology (MarTech) space, in order to be able to craft even more efficient strategies for clients.

“It is rare to work with so many digital experts who are all individually committed to growth and improvement. It makes the atmosphere very creatively fulfilling.”- Sanhita Mukherjee, Content Strategist

“Delivering value without compromising on our values is the mainstay of Think North Consulting.”- Saif Ansari, Senior Account Executive

“Creative quality and ethics — these are two things that are never compromised here at Think North Consulting, come what may. This is something that sets us apart.”- Sachin Rane, Art Director

“Power and kindness is what we at Think North Consulting stand for, and this also helps us thrive every day!”- Anuradha Agarwal, Founder (Think North Consulting), Director (JanaJal)

Anuradha herself is involved with an organization that develops technological innovations designed to give all communities equal access to essential resources. She has played a role in training young minds through speaker sessions at Jindal Business School, and various Young Accelerator Programs. She has also been part of prestigious sessions with the industry experts and world leaders at Horasis India and Asia Meeting (2020) and Horasis Extraordinary Meeting (2021). Enabling equal opportunities for women in corporate and entrepreneurial spaces is another cause that is close to her heart. She is a part of several female mentorship programs through which she guides and advises young girls with ambitious dreams.

PM Modi takes first shot of Covid-19 Vaccine, the second phase of vaccination begins today

The India Saga Saga |

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi was administered the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on Monday morning at AIIMS, Delhi.

Post receiving his first dose, he tweeted “Took my first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine at AIIMS. Remarkable how our doctors and scientists have worked in quick time to strengthen the global fight against COVID-19. I appeal to all those who are eligible to take the vaccine. Together, let us make India COVID-19 free!”

Today, with the country’s PM receiving the vaccine, the nation enters the second phase of the vaccination drive. The registration will start from 9:00 AM for senior citizens( above 60 years of age) and for 45-60 age of people with comorbidities.

Since many states encounter a sudden upsurge in the Covid-19 cases, this phase of the drives aims to cover 30 crores of the priority population who are most vulnerable to the virus.

Registration Process

For receiving the vaccination, an eligible person will have to register on Co-WIN 2.0 portal or through Arogya Setu App.

An individual can register as many as four beneficiaries through one mobile number. However, the beneficiaries will have to produce identity proofs individually. 

The center has listed seven different photo identity documents that can be produced by the beneficiaries during the vaccination process. The seven documents are:

  • Aadhaar Card/Letter, 
  • Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC), 
  • Passport, 
  • Driving License, 
  • PAN Card, 
  • NPR Smart Card and 
  • Pension Document with a photograph

The first phase of vaccination received a lukewarm response from the people. Though the nation aimed to vaccinate 30 million health workers and frontline warriors but was able to achieve only half of them. The second phase aims to vaccinate a huge number of people.
