Beyond steel

Thirty-plus years of coils, contracts and container schedules is only half the story. This page is the other half — the meditation that keeps me steady, the poetry and songs that keep me alive, and a few moments I like to remember.

Vipassana

I am a committed follower of Vipassana, the meditation of seeing things as they really are. It has taught me to watch the highs and lows of life — and of the steel market — with a calm mind, and to come back to work each time with a clearer head.

If there is one thing I would recommend to anyone in business, it is a ten-day course.

Poetry & songs

I write ghazals and nazms in Hindi and Urdu, and I love to sing. A few recordings and posts:
