Primary, For the past few weeks I was working in first shift so I have to get up early in the morning (5:45 am to be precise), today I was called in second shift so had a great sleep this weekend.Secondly, The bike was accepted for servicing even after exceeding the mentioned time period for the service (It was overdue), for which I was a bit worried about. As mentioned in the manual the first free service can be availed only if the owner summits it for service after 500 km or 30 days from the date of Purchased. Which I told was exceeded.Lastly, I have just finished with the book "Zen in the Martial Arts" By Joe Hyams.
Joe Hyams, the author of the book as a result of his years of disciplined study in this book explains how mastering a martial art can foster a student's personal and spiritual growth.
My sincere thanks to Mr Anand (Sourcing Department, Cummins India Limited) from whom I borrowed the book. I am thankful to him as he as made me theme so clear about the book that I really feel like reading in a single shot. My sincere thanks to Mr Satish Khaire (DM, Press Shop) who asked me come in second shift to monitor Press shop for this week. This has given me enough time and courage to read and work in the second shift, as I am the only head in second shift, so nobody really bothers you work sleep or read.
About the book, this book named "Zen in the Martial Arts" teaches you the learning, which one can implement in his life through the experience gained by Mr Hyams during his mastering of different arts.
My learning from the book is "A man who has attained mastery of an art reveals it in his every action".Thursday, April 20, 2006
