German Bakery -Pune

A really tranquil peaceful place outside the Osho ashram.
I have been their once.The place is always buzzing with activity
with people from many nationalities.
The Bakery has an exotic menu list.
A good collection of continental and indian bakery products and beverages.
Sad to hear the place has been firebombed with a huge casuality list.

Their was tremendous opposition to Osho too....
But he prevails.Hope the German bakery will prevade too,inspite of the terrible mishap.

I bought the Monks Ferrari-Ravi Subramaniam-Book Review

A catchy oxymoron from the title of Robin sharmas original novel.

Ravi Subramaniam takes a shot at achieving big in life.
Drawn mainly from his own experiences in the banking sector.

The book is about achieving the "ferrari"-the dream sports car,
a metaphor for achieving big possesions which very few people
actually reach.

So,here we have the route to reach the ferrari by a professional who has
succesfully tread the conventional path to get his ferrari.

The book is interesting,nevertheless gets preachy at times,and
ends up taking the cliched route which many motivational book authors take.

A good pick for a one time read nevertheless.
