The price of war The virulent mobile screens have been flashing non-stop with the video gone viral of our captive Wing Commander Abhinandan. The dignity with which he handled the questions put to him by the captors, purportedly being treated politely, comes across as a stark reminder
EDIT
of the price of war on individual human beings. Yes, we know that there will be human sacrifices when
It drives
the question is one of protecting our national security
home the
Wing Commander in the viral video jolts you out of your
point that ultimately in war, there are no winners
and territorial rights. And yet the vulnerability of the IAF intellectual complacency. All his years of training for exactly such a scenario, in case it ever came to that, was now at play. His calm demeanour, the even tone, the unflinching stance as he answered his captors was like a twist of the knife. The disturbing video drives home the point poignantly that ultimately in war, there are no winners. When you think of their families – wives, old parents, young brothers and sisters, children who are waiting for their father to come back home – it breaks your heart. Is the price we pay as individual human beings in our short lives on this beautiful planet, commensurate with the goods we get in return for war? No easy answers here.

engaluru is a traveller’s delight. It starts with the air conditioned Volvo buses and the pre-paid taxi counter at the airport. Not to mention, the pre-paid auto counters at the city’s railway stations. But the finest example is the ease with which you can navigate the central business district of MG Road and around with the Big 10 buses. You can hop on and hop off at any point after your shopping expedition. But the finest experience will be the first reach of the Namma Metro train running from Old Madras Road to MG Road. Happy travels.

To make last-mile connectivity easier, the Bengaluru Metro has reintroduced rental bikes at specific stations. This initiative was taken a couple of years back but lost its charm due to low demand. It has been reinstated making life so much easier for regular commuters. You can rent a bike for as low as Rs 10 per hour, without any constraints or deposits. BENGALURU

Auto-rickshaws are Bangalore’s ubiquitous mode of transport, easy to hail down, with the metre box that declares the fare fairly. Ideal to use for short distances, or even long ones for that matter, or as a transit transport to get to the metro station. BUSES
Bangalore has a vast network of BMTC buses plying within the city. The best way is to check locally for routes and bus numbers to reach a particular destination. Be prepared for some wait time though. METRO
The Bangalore metro rail system offers good connectivity and speed, and is especially useful for cross-city commute to avoid road traffic. Regulars can opt for a metro pass that can be loaded with currency and swiped at stations. (See detailed metro route map inside).

ith Bengaluru, the sobriquets keep getting added up. From Air Conditioned City to Aviation Capital to Garden City, this small town turned technopolis has added a new word to the American lexicon: ‘Bangalored’. It means ‘to lose one’s job’ as a result of off shoring work to India. That’s not all. The city is emerging as a medical tourism hub in India by offering ‘First World Service at Third World Cost’. What’s more, the best and the brightest multinationals are spicing up the retail scene by test-marketing large format stores like Reebok, Levi’s, Adidas, Esprit and Nautica. It’s become a ‘yuppie heaven’. Now that’s yet another sobriquet for the city. With the Metro Rail opening in phases, things are getting better by the day.

Vivanta by Taj Whitefield has drop down screens and projectors, pillar-less halls and night vision cameras. Not to mention, La Marvella’s iTouch device that lets you control the lights and the blinds at the push of a button. Not to mention, the TV set, air conditioner and room service. Wow, indeed.

Yoga with a twist REBALANCE YOUR ENERGIES AND HEAL WITH THE SLOW GENTLE STRETCHES OF YIN YOGA BY SMITI JAIN NARAYAN In the darkened hall, you lie down in shavasana on your yoga mat with your eyes closed, as the gentle voice of the instructor fades in and out of your consciousness, while an ethereal music that seems to emanate from the bowels of the earth creates an incredibly harmonious ambience
46 | MARCH FIRST HALF| 2019
where you have no choice but to lose yourself completely and surrender to the power of the moment. Yin Yoga is complementary to Yang practice. The slow, languorous stretches of Yin Yoga make you twist your body in unknown positions to unlock your hidden energy points, loosen those knots which you never knew existed, and heal, heal, heal… ever so gently and softly. You don’t need to be a regular Yoga practitioner to handle the slow but long-held stretches of Yin Yoga. It works at the most basic level, the simplicity of the poses belying the power that they wield. The seeming gentleness of the twists and turns of BANGALORE
the body work, most incredibly, to liberate, rebalance and heal through the poses which are very slow but held for a long time, ranging from 2 to 10 minutes. The result is energizing, almost exhilarating. And this is just the introductory session. The origin of Yin Yoga can be traced to South East Asia with its fluid, energizing approach. Regeesh was one of the people who brought it to India at Aayana Yoga Academy in Bangalore and popularised by him and Mrinali to introduce its benefits and healing ability without harsh physical strain. The instructor at the trial session Archana Thakur added her own unique touch to Yin Yoga with the choice of the mellifluous and harmonious music and the lilting call that blended beautifully to create a whole and wholesome experience as you followed the instructions, almost imbibing them subliminally. Essentially, Yin Yoga acts on the principle of being an inward approach that takes you inwards to release your blocked energies and harmonize the body and emotions to heal and strengthen from within. It’s the way to heal yourself comfortably without a struggle through the therapeutic process of slow, long and passive stretching. In Yin Yoga, you don’t fight the body, you yield to it gently and twist it into healing through the poses you practise. There are many different forms of Yoga available today and each type appeals to different individuals. But Yin Yoga is an altogether elevating experience that has to be practised first hand to understand its healing power.

If their dosas and idlis aren’t filling enough, dropping by MTR will please the glutton in you. Feast on the fish curry-rice at Fishland in Gandhinagar or munch on the magai paanwala on St Mark’s Road. From mutton biriyani at the Akhada in Shivajinagar to paneer, chicken and egg rolls at Fanoos in Johnson Market, the city is a foodie’s paradise and a gourmet’s delight.
*Alcohol may not be served at some of these place, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm. 48 |MARCH FIRST HALF|2019

T
he city is famous for its bars and pubs. It’s called the Beer Capital of India. With good reason. But the best reason to pub hop? It’s cosmopolitan crowd and the niche pubs that serve a select clientele. There are lounge spaces for the ladies, retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Not to mention, resto-bars, sports bars, roof-top bars, hookah bars, dance bars and cigar lounges for the casual and adventurous. Not to mention, the city’s first wine boutique pub. Reason enough to rewind, reboot and restart. *Alcohol may not be served at some of these places, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm. 66 | MARCH FIRST HALF|2019

PERFECT BOUNCE INTRODUCES GAIT ANALYSIS
Perfect Bounce provides a unique specialised world-class gait analysis facility, to identify the cause of pain, musculoskeletal weakness or joint deformity to patients, and offers comprehensive and customised treatment plans based on gait analysis. l Motion Capture: The patient’s walking or running motion is recorded by high speed video cameras from different views. l Analysis: The recorded motion is analysed by experts using a gait analysis software, GaitON. Pelvis, hip, knee, foot movement is assessed to pin-point abnormality or cause of pain. For athletes especially, gait analysis helps identify bad movement patterns (biomechanical faults) that can increase injury risk and deplete performance energy. l Treatment Plans: Gait analysis results are correlated with a thorough physical examination and then a customised treatment plan is chalked out in the form of exercises, corrective orthotics and other treatments.
SPORTS TIE-UPS
Perfect Bounce has tied up with several sports events and corporates: Bhasin Sports Tom’s Badminton Academy l Baddyzone l Shuttleboi l Finix Fitness Studio l And several others l l

engaluru is a metaphor of an India that has arrived on the global scene. And this begins with worldclass self-sustaining ‘mixed use’ townships. Not to mention, smart digital homes that let you control your household appliances, lights and even the garage door from the comfort of your office. All you need to do is press a button or swipe a card. That’s making the most of smart technology where Wi-Fi enabled houses can automatically take care of all your household needs like dusting, cooking, laundry, bathroom, security and entertainment. You can not only watch what’s happening at home through Wi-Fi enabled webcams but also control the temperature of your fridge and microwave. This is your very own Utopia. Make the most of it. 94 | MARCH FIRST HALF|2019

f you’ve never been to these places around Bengaluru, you are definitely missing something. There’s Bannerghatta National Park for the butterfly park, tiger and lion safari, Shivanasamudram for its waterfalls during July and August, hill station Devarayanadurga, Hesaraghatta for its boating and windsurfing opportunities, Ramohalli for the fabled big banyan tree spread over 4 acres, Shivaganga hill for trekking and mountain climbing, Channapatna for its wooden toys, Mekedatu for its picturesque locale where river Cauvery offers an awe-inspiring sight and Kolar Gold Fields, the world’s deepest gold mine. If you want to visit any of these places, one call to a tour operator or even a car rental service should do the trick.
