Taxes in India: What is the difference between TAN and TIN regarding income tax?
Very often, similar sounding words are baffling and sometimes even misunderstood especially when it comes to tricky subjects such as Income tax.TAN (Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number) is a unique string of 10 digits (combination of alphabets and numerals) provided by the Income Tax Department (ITD) of India to the individuals who are required to deduct TDS or TCS as guided by the income tax department. TAN should be obtained for all those authorities who are utilizing TDS or TCS. A penalty of Rs 10,000 is generally implemented in cases where the individuals fail to abide by the rules of TAN.TAN number can be obtained under the subcategory of "TAX REGISTRATIONS & BUSINESS PERMITS" at a reasonable and pre-determined price. Applying for TAN is very easy and it can be done by both offline and online modes.NSDL is the empowered authority of the Income-tax Department for allotment of TAN. Generally, the TAN number is intimated to the applicant at their postal address mentioned in the application.However, a TIN number is different. It is referred to as Tax Payer Identification Number or VAT or CST number or Sales Tax Number. Similar to the TAN number, a TIN number is a unique identity number. It is assigned by the Commercial Tax Department of each State Government and it is an obligation to state this number on all the VAT related issues or transactions. The idea behind the TIN number is to provide a unique identification to all the dealers that are being registered under VAT and involved in interstate transactions. TIN is suggested for nationwide users through TIN Facilitation Centers (TIN FC) and web-based centralized system which allows an effective and transparent tax administration. Unlike TAN, penalties for misconduct against TIN rules vary from state to state.A TIN number is for traders, companies, or manufacturers who are actively involved in sales or purchase of goods in India. For these individuals, submission of TIN number proof is the utmost requirement while filing a tax return or benefit claims.To summarise this, TAN number is purely meant for a tax deduction for TDS or TCS (direct taxes) while TIN is for VAT transactions and it is not applicable to all the taxpayers (indirect tax).Get a free consultation for TDS and Income Tax Return Filing and business startup by scheduling an appointment with an Unfolding Tax Advisor

Is the cryptocurrency Bitcoin a good idea?
Yes.Here’s the problem: most people who know a lot about Bitcoin can only speak “tech”.I was at a conference recently. I was the keynote speaker but had zero talk prepared (as usual). It was a crowdfunding conference so I “crowdsourced” my talk.I asked the audience: I can talk about entrepreneurship or I can take fifteen minutes to explain Bitcoin without using any technical jargon. Clap for which one you want.Almost 100% of the people wanted to learn about Bitcoin without the technical jargon.People are hungry for this. They don’t want to hear about “crypto” or “blockchain”. They just want to know what all this Bitcoin stuff is about.Back in 2013, I thought Bitcoin was a scam. I was wrong.First, some credentials.In early 2013 I had my doubts. I started reading everything I could. Then I got my hands dirty.I’ve been a coder / programmer since 1985. I decided to code up a Bitcoin only store (maybe the first ever) and sell my book, “Choose Yourself” on it before it was released on Amazon.It was very hard. I had to develop the store from scratch since there were no easy tools to help me. There still isn’t (hint: business opportunity).Once I launched it, quite a few people bought my book. I sold a PDF of my book for 0.1 Bitcoin. Bitcoin was then $60 so I sold it for about $6 per PDF. Right now, it’s as if I sold each PDF for $1600. I sold many copies.I went on CNBC when they heard I was doing this. The anchor asked me, “Did you just do this for publicity?”I said, “Well, I’m on national TV so I guess it worked.”Another thing worth noting: Most of my customers came from one domain name (they had to submit their email addresses for me to process the sale): Amazon.com. Make of that what you will.A few months ago I started writing about cryptocurrencies again. I saw so many people getting involved in scams, I wanted to help.The other day I had an Uber driver who thanked me during the car ride for helping him “get it”.And last night at a restaurant, the waiter at the end of the meal shook my hand and thanked me for helping him “finally” begin to understand what Bitcoin was about.In order for crypto currencies to succeed, people need to understand at a basic level what they are. Nobody needs to learn complicated cryptography or blockchain.Just understand why now. Why this is important for us a society.TWO CRITICAL REASONS BITCOIN IS HISTORICALLY IMPORTANT AND HERE TO STAYJust understand these two reasons. Then you will know the potential for Bitcoin. And you will be popular at cocktail parties.A) THE HISTORY OF MONEYEvery new style of money solves the major problems of the last style of money.BarterIf I have a bag of rice and I need shoes, what if you make shoes but you only need 1/2 bag of rice. Do I get 1/2 a pair of shoes?Barter has a lot of problems. In the above, coming up with the rice to shoes exchange rate is difficult.Then coming up with 1000s of exchange rates just to go out and buy groceries is almost impossible.PLUS, what if you have to move (your kingdom is attacked). How are you going to carry all that rice? All of those shoes?Money has two purposes:as a store of wealth / savingsto make transactionsThere’s a third, which Ray Dalio, the head of the largest hedge fund in the world, Brigewater, told me the other day. But we’ll get to that later.Barter is horrible as a store of wealth. And for transactions, best case it’s very difficult.But problems lead to opportunities. Which leads to…2. PRECIOUS METALS / COINSGold and silver are scarce. It’s hard to mine them.But it’s hard to forge them because you can measure by weight.So the scarcity combined with the lack of forgery makes them good choices for money. I can convert my rice into gold coins, you can convert your shoes into gold coins, and now we can trade and now we can buy whatever we want.(Marcus Aurelius on a gold coin)As a store of wealth, it’s not great but not horrible.If my kingdom is attacked and I have to move, gold and silver are easily stored and carried as designed jewelry.BUT, two problems.One: what if you live in a country that doesn’t have any gold mines. Now you either have to trade for gold or start attacking countries: (this did not work out so well for the Aztecs).Two: What if you wanted to buy a house right now: are you really going to bring a truck of gold bars to the closing? Or if you have to move to another country and you have a lifetime worth of savings: are you going to ship all of your gold bars to your new home?People say that gold is “real” as opposed to (later) paper money and cryptocurrencies.This is not really true. Gold is a rock. But it does have industrial uses (silver is better for this because of price but still…). Gold and silver are great electric conductors, can be used as SILVERware. Can be used as antibiotics (hence great for fillings on teeth).So we can say that gold money is “backed” by something that has real use with value associated with it.But we still have to solve the problems above.3) PAPER MONEY BACKED BY GOLD AND…PAPER MONEYCountries made paper money that was like a contract with the government that all of that money can be converted into gold.This was great for transactions (easy to carry paper money).This was great for store of wealth (put the money in a bank and you can go anywhere). The first banks for paper money backed by gold helped fund every war in Europe in the 1800s. Good job!When paper money is backed by gold it also puts a clamp on inflation. You only have as much paper money in a country as there is gold in that country.(yes, there is a 100,000 dollar bill in the US. Woodrow Wilson is on it).So you can trust the government to not go crazy printing money that is not backed by gold (like German in the 1920s when trillions of Marks were printed and Germany went into an inflationary death spiral that was at least one cause for World War II).BUT, why benefit the countries where gold is easy to mine and punish the countries where gold is hard to mine.Also, the world is expanding in every way: more people, more technology, more innovation, more THINGS.I’m not sure this is a good thing or a bad thing (see: Germany above) but sometimes countries need to balance debt with money printing to manage their fiscal policy.The US went off of gold in the early 70s in order to fund the financial needs of both the Vietnam War and the social improvement programs of Lyndon Johnson.This created inflation.Paper money will often lead to this situation. Someone will say: why do we need the gold part?Again, might be good or bad. There’s a lot of debate. Did money printing save the US in 2008 and 2009? Maybe. Or will their be future problems caused by this? Maybe.Nevertheless, there are other problems with paper money that need to be solved:a. No privacy.If I’m making a sizable (greater than $1000) transaction I’m usually not using cash but either a credit card or a money wire.So that means your bank knows. Other banks know (the bank you are sending money to, the Federal Reserve, the local Reserve bank, etc).Government agencies know (the IRS, the NSA, etc etc).Potentially sites like Google and Amazon know depending on what payment services you use and what you are buying.So you have no privacy on your transactions with paper money.b. Fees.If I send a friend in Korea money, I go through my bank (fee), local reserve bank (fee), Federal Reserve (fee), International wiring system (fee), their central bank (fee), their local reserve bank (fee), their local bank (fee).That’s a lot of fees. Those fees help create inflation because every transaction needs to have a profit on top of those fees.c. Forgery. Something like $200 billion in forged money is circulating right now.d. Human error. This is a CRITICAL problem. There are so many opportunities for human error. When you transfer money, they can send to the wrong account. Or a bank’s software can be hacked and you lose all of your money.Or, most importantly, the Federal Reserve in the US can decide to print another trillion (Like 2009) and, without your permission, the value of your dollar has gone down.In the US we’ve been lucky. But all of South America hasn’t been so lucky (all of their currencies crashed in the 80s. Most of Asia wasn’t so lucky in the 90s (their currencies wiped them out). Russia in 1997 was wiped out.Many countries have relied on humans to print (or not print) money and the slightest human error can wipe out an entire country’s economy.The United States has been lucky. For now. But this is a HUGE error we risk every day.These are the basic problems. There are more (theft, for instance).e. What is backing paper money?Only our trust. I don’t want to be a conspiracy theorist. But the reality is: a dollar is a piece of paper. Just like gold is just a rock.How do they make us trust that the money has value?They put “In God We Trust” on it. They put George Washington. They put the signature of the Secretary of Treasury (pretending it’s a contract.).And, for the weirdos, they even put a pyramid with an eye on it.And that’s supposed to be why we trust it. I don’t trust it.4) BITCOIN (and, btw, Bitcoin is not the end. There will be a “5”).Bitcoin solves the problems above.a. Human error: there is no printing of money. There is a fixed supply of 21,000,000 coins.How do I know this? I’m a skeptic. So I read the software behind Bitcoin. I read it over and over until I could figure it out. In one part of the code they clearly define how many coins can be “mined” / printed (printed is the wrong word but I’m using it here to make the connection with paper money). And there’s another part of the code which “enforces” the first part.(part of the code that limits the total # of bitcoins to 21,000,000. I found this by reading ALL of the code for bitcoin).b. Theft. Like with every other form of currency, an exchange (like a bank) that stores your Bitcoin can be hacked and money stolen.BUT, I only keep a small amount of money in an exchange. You can get a storage drive, store your money, and put it in a safety deposit box. So even if the exchange is attacked, you still have your money.ALL theft can be prevented this way with Bitcoin. You can’t do this with paper dollars because if you have too many dollars, how will you store it? Ditto for gold.c. Forgery. The software guarantees that Bitcoins can’t be forged.d. Privacy. I can send you a Bitcoin and nobody knows who is sending it, who is receiving it, and no government institutions are aware of it.e. Fees.Some bitcoin transactions have small fees. But it’s nothing like the fees of going through six banks in the transaction described above.What’s backing it?There’s about 1000 man-years of science backing Bitcoin.The underlying technology of Bitcoin which involves heavy amounts of cryptography, financial know-how, and basics of contract law, plus the “blockchain” have 100s of use-cases that we have only just begun to play with.EVEN IF Bitcoin is never used as a coin (although note: it’s being used every day as money) there are 100s or 1000s of other uses for Bitcoin that have nothing to do with the basic money use.I won’t get into the weeds here: but suffice to say that ALL of contract law can be (and will be) eventually replaced by Bitcoin.And ALL of logistics will be replaced by Bitcoin (e.g. UPS is replacing all of their internal logistics (tracking millions of packages every day going from millions of locations to millions of other locations) by Bitcoin technology.There’s nothing behind paper money or gold like this.Now…Bitcoin has problems also.Hence the need for other cryptocurrencies. But that’s ok and not the topic for here. Suffice to say, Bitcoin solves all the basic problems of paper money, which solves the problems of gold, which solves the problems of barter.HOWEVER, there is another reason why Bitcoin is here to stay and it’s so compelling.——EVOLUTION OF EVERY INDUSTRYEverything in life evolves. Not only species but ideas.Let’s look at some industries.MEDICINETheism: 500 years ago if you got sick, you’d either pray to a god to get better, go to a shaman, make a sacrifice, or assume you committed a sin that made you sick and would try to undo the sin.Humanism: Post-rennaissance, we had human “experts” called doctors who would either leech us to death, perform horrible surgeries that would kill us, or would pat us on the back, hammer our knee and say, “take two aspirin”.Doctors aren't bad. They’ve saved many many lives. But Humanism has it’s limits. A known fact is that, on average, the moment when a doctor is most effective is his or her first year out of medical school. After that, statistically downhill.Data-ism:Now when if you go to a doctor, you get tests. You get blood work, you get an MRI, an EEG, an X-Ray, the X-Ray might go into a database and an AI algorithm matches it against other X-rays (does it match a tumor X-ray or a non-tumor X-ray?). We even get genetic testing to see if our illness is in our chromosomes.Then, armed with data, often a computer will tell us the correct solution (and even a computer can do the robotic surgery needed), or a human will help interpret the data (but there’s room for human error here).(source: National Genome Research Institute)So Medicine has evolved fromTheism → Humanism → DataismLet’s pick another industry:WARTheism: 3000 years ago if two countries went to war, the kings would perform massive sacrifices to their gods the day before.In the Bible, whosever God was stronger (Baal versus Yahweh being a notable Hebrew battle), that group would win the war.Fragments of this exist right now: May the Force Be With You, said to Luke before he flies out to fight the Death Star.Humanism: For the past 500 years, whoever had the most humans on the ground, the most bullets, then the most planes, then the most bombs. ,would win the war.Data-ism:War is being fought every day now. EVERY SINGLE DAY. Every day, some country tries to bring down the electric grid of Poland.Every day, every Fortune 500 company is attacked by “bot armies” coming from…nobody knows.I’ve been involved in the cyber security space for 25 years or more.I once was talking to a company who helps Fortune 500 companies fight “bot armies”. All of the employees were top Phds who were the experts in their fields.One guy told me, “No matter how smart we are, they are smarter.”Who are “they?” The people making the bot armies. Where do they come from? We don’t know. They come from everywhere. They are just smarter than us.Elections are rigged. Companies are attacked. Information is stolen.We have been in World War III for at least 20 years and it will never end. Dataism has taken over war.Ok…MONEYTheism: “In God We Trust”Humanism: “George Washington”. A picture of Independence Hall. Or the White House. Anything. Anything at all so that we trust humans with what we are given in exchange for the hard labor we do every single day.Do we trust humans? I tend to trust humans. But that is maybe not so smart all of the time. Humans make a lot of mistakes and that’s been the downfall of so many companies, so many families, and so many…everything.Data-ism. Bitcoin and now other cryptocurrencies.1000s of man-years of science. 100,000s of lines of code that has been checked by 10,000s of the best programmers.Data-ism prevents forgery, keeps privacy, re-creates all contract law, avoids fees, avoids theft. And this is just a small sample of what data does for money.“In Data We Trust” for better or worse. But it works.The natural evolution of money has arrived. And it’s not only Bitcoin but other cryptocurrencies.FAQ:Why do we need other Cryptocurrencies?Why do we need more than one currency at all? Why is there a US dollar and a Canadian dollar.FOR NO REASON. Just an artificial border created in 1770 and we have two different currencies.Cryptocurrencies have what I call are “problem borders”.One coin is better than Bitcoin for making contracts (Ethereum).Another coin is better for privacy ((Zcash. A problem with Bitcoin is that although there are no names on a transaction, I can see the size and the time. So privacy is still a slight problem).Another coin might be better for solving a problem of decentralized storage (as opposed to storing all of your photos on one centralizes spot that can be hacked like Google Drive). Bitcoin doesn’t address this problem.Problem Borders create new currencies.Is it too late to invest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies?Right now, this reminds me of the Internet in 1995–6. There’s a bit of irrational exuberance in new coins. Prices are going crazy.There will be a massive pullback. BUT, the legitimate coins are here to stay and will keep going.Amazon, of course, pulled back, when the Internet pulled back. Now it will eventually be a trillion dollar company. Many companies that started in the 90s have survived and thrived and were great long-term investments that have paid off.Cryptocurrencies are the “internet of money”. The internet is here to stay and so is the internet of money.We are only in inning one of the cryptocurrency shift in our money.Will cryptocurrencies replace paper money?Yes. Eventually. It might not be Bitcoin although Bitcoin will always exist.But each country, to solve the problems of paper money, will eventually switch. Countries that are debating it include: Israel, Estonia, Venezuela, Argentina.Countries that will use some aspects of cryptocurrency technology in their central bank will soon include China, Korea, Russia, and yes, the United States.And many countries will reject cryptocurrencies but their population will shift en masse to cryptocurrencies in order to avoid corruption, human error, theft, etc. First on my list for this is Argentina.What will the value of cryptocurrencies be?When I first wrote about this, all cryptocurrencies added up was about $200 BILLION. Now it’s around $750 Billion. Although I do view many of the currencies as scams so the number is really less.That’s the “SUPPLY” of cryptocurrencies.The DEMAND is the amount of paper money + gold that exists.That number is $200 TRILLION.So in order to go from ONE TRILLION to 200 TRILLION that’s a 200x gain. In other words, $10,000 turns into $2,000,000.And if you focus on the legitimate currencies, the gains are much greater.So, again, we are very much in the beginning of this. There is no other investment opportunity in our lifetime greater than this. And we ARE at the beginning.What are the legitimate cryptocurrencies?There are many. I don’t want to get into the weeds here and discuss all the technology.And I also don’t like all the speculative trading that is going on in cryptocurrencies. Speculation leads to scams and bubbles.But just like there were Internet companies that survived the bust and became the companies we use every day, there are cryptocurrencies that exist now that we will use every day ten years from now.You said on CNBC that Bitcoin will go to a $1,000,000? Were you kidding?No.Bitcoin hit $20,000 recently. We just said it could go at least as much as 200x higher. That’s $4,000,000. So even at $1,000,000, Bitcoin will be a buy.How else can one make money in the Bitcoin sector?You don’t have to be a software developer.When the gold rush hit in the 1800s, Levis Jeans became the big winner. And the companies that sold “picks” and “shovels”.There will be many picks and shovels companies in the Bitcoin space.Sites that have the latest bitcoin news and analysis will do well. Exchanges will do well. Companies that help integrate traditional companies with the deeper parts of Bitcoin technology will do well (like whoever is helping UPS integrate blockchain tech into their logistics).Companies that help new cryptocurrencies launch will do well.And on and on.Someone said you called “Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme” in early 2013. Why should we trust you now?First, I’m always a believer that the best investment is in yourself. This will provide greater than 200x returns.That said, I was wrong in early 2013.I’ve been a software guy for 25+ years. I’m able to do my research. Which I did.By May 2013 I had already done enough research to build my own bitcoin store, go on CNBC and discuss Bitcoin, and be an advocate when it was just $60. This is all public info.But, for me, focusing on my physical health, emotional health, creative health, and spiritual health, will always be the most valuable “Currency” I can develop and trade in.Could Bitcoin be just a fad?No.Paper money DOES have the problems described above. Someone has to solve those problems. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies solve them.And every industry evolves. Cryptocurrencies are the “In Data We Trust” way in which money is evolving.And $750 BILLION believes in me on this.Who is Satoshi?Satoshi is the secretive founder of Bitcoin. He is worth many many billions in Bitcoin right now. He is anonymous and reporters, governments, etc have never figured out who he is.That said, a number of people know who he is. I read his blog every day, He is a secretive person and nobody wants to blow his cover.Well, what should I do now?Don’t listen to me.a. Get an account on Coinbase (or wherever). Buy $10 worth of Bitcoin just to taste and feel it.b. Then read. Read a lot.Here’s some books not about Bitcoin that are worth reading:Sapiens by Yuval HurariThe Evolution of Everything by Matt RidleyThe Ascent of Money by Niall Ferguson.Antifragile by Naseem TalebThere’s a lot of discussion of cryptocurrencies on Reddit and Twitter. DO NOT read those. Most of those discussions are filled with trolls although there are some decent sources there.Blogs / Sites: start with Coindesk and CoinTelegraph. You'll find the rest as you read more.

What is Telugu Satakam?
A2A by Nagesh Tallapragada. Thanks for making me brush up my knowledge.“Sata” means hundred in Sanskrit. ‘Satakamu’ means compilation of hundred poems by a single poet.Though literally a Satakam should contain hundred poems, they often exceed hundred by a small number. Say 8 or 16.The characteristics of a Satakam are as follows:Each Satakam conveys a different ideology, depending on the poet’s school of thought.Each Satakam also follows the same ‘Chandassu’ for all the poems in that Satakam. Chandassu is a set of grammatical rules which should be followed while constructing a poem. For example: 1. How many syllables each line should contain 2. Which word should rhyme with which word etc.(for details you can google)Each Satakam has a ‘Makutam’ (crown). Makutam means a phrase or a word repeated at the end of each poem in the Satakam. We can say it is the signature of the poet for that Satakam.Now I will give example of four Satakams, though there are many Satakams in Telugu.A. Vemana Satakam: This is written by ‘Vemana’(Gona Vema Reddy). He became a ‘Yogi’(a person who denounces all worldly things) when he attained his adulthood.Makutam for this Satakam is “Viswadabhirama vinura Vema”. Meaning of this phrase is “Oh Vema, the lover of this universe listen!”. Here Vemana says God is in every person, including him.The chandassu for this satakam is ‘Ataveladi’In this satakam Vemana tries to teach worldly wise things mixed with deep philosophy.Some of his his poems are here.Meaning of the above two poems poems:Salt and camphor look alike. But you will know the difference only after you taste them. Similarly you can not judge a person from his outward appearance. You will get to know about them only after you study them deeply.It is enough if you have even a single ladle of cow’s milk. But it is useless if you have big pot full of donkey’s milk.B. Sumati Satakam: It is written by Baddena Bhupaludu.Makutam for this Satakam is ‘Sumatee’ (which means oh, good hearted person!)The chandassu for this satakam is ‘Kanda padyam’It teaches morals . What to do and what not to do etc. You can say it is a sort of moral science for ancient times.Here are two sample poems:Meaning of the above two poems:Don’t stay in a town where, below mentioned persons are not there. They are: A loan giver (a banker in modern terms), a doctor, a perpetual flowing river, a brahmin (may be another term for a teacher). Stay in a town where all these people exist.It is not a great thing if you help a person who already helped you, it is great if you help a person even if he harmed you.C. Krishna Satakam: This is written by Nrusimha Kavi. All the poems are written in praise of Krishna (Hindu God).Makutam for this Satakam s ‘Krishnaa!” (Krishna, Oh God!)The chandasuu for this satakam is ‘kanda padyam’It tries to inculcate ‘bhakti bhavam’ (devotion towads God)Here are two sample poems:Meaninig of those two poems:A cruel person ‘Ajameeludu’ called his son “Krishna!”.

It consists of 104 poemsMakutam : Daasarthee Karuna Payonedhee (O son of Dasaratha, the ocean of mercy). . Dasarathi means son of Dasaratha, who is the mythological Hindu king Rama.

Athis form of verse have more number of sillabels.In this Satakam Ramadasu worships Rama with all devoution. In each of the poem we can see his pure devoution to lord Rama.O Rama, who is born in the pious ‘Ikshavahu’ caste, who wears basil leaf garland in his neck, who is the epitome of virtues like forgiveness, romance etc, who killed the demons like Kabandha and who protects the entire world; salute to you! Please forgive our sins and protect us.O Rama, the moon born in the ocean of nectar of “Raghu Vansa(family), who helps in getting detached from chains of worldly things, I am submitting to your lotus feet the poems written in ‘Utpalamala’ and ‘Champakamala’ (chandassu).

Meaning of these lines is: “O Narasimha, who resides in Dharmapura, whose body glows with the ornaments, who chase away sins and who destroys sinners”The chandassu for this Satakakam is Sisa Padyam. Sisa padyam consists of two parts. One is basic sisam and another is a small verse either ’Ataveladi’ or ‘Theta geetam’ which follows the basic Sisam. It is one of the beautiful forms of verses.In this Satakam one can see the submission of the poets heart to lord Narasimha. All the poems are written with great anguish/distress/heartache, because he is not able to signNow the lord.O Narasimha, this body will not stay on this earth for thousand(many)years. Wealth is not eternal. When somebody dies his/her family will not come along with them. Servants would not be able to protect one from his death. Any relatives will not protect one from death, power will not be useful(while dying), and even if one is a very wealthy person he/she will not be able to take even a small piece of clothe with them. So instead of thinking like mad dog, why don’t people worship you(know you)?O Narasimha, Nobody brings wealth from his mother’s womb. When somebody dies wealth does not come along with them. Even if somebody is a millionaire, he/she can eat only basic edible things like rice and salt (some taste makers added to grains) but cannot eat gold. If somebody amasses huge amount of wealth, it will go to others but will not come along with one when he/she dies. Like the honey made by honey bees is taken by some walkers by, the money amassed in secret place will be taken by some robbers or kings. So don’t waste your time amassing too much wealth, instead try to find the Lord.For index of more Satakams in Telugu, read ఆంధ్రభారతి - శతకములు - విషయసూచిక - శతక శతకములు శతకాలు.Links for the above poems:Sumati Satakam: à°¸à±à°®à°¤à± శతà°à°.Krishna Satakam: https://www.scribd.com/doc/19681....Vemana Satakam: à°µà±à°®à°¨ పదà±à°¯à°¾à°²à±.Kalahatiswara Satakam: à°à°¾à°¸à±à°à°° శతà°à°.Dasarathi Satakam and Narasimha Satakam: From my digital books.

Can I learn how to read piano notes quicker?
To improve sight reading, you need to learn to NOT read everything. Ill explain it this way, with English first.Read the following : AThat is a single letter word. Easy?Lets add another letter (N) to it. Read this : ANNow try one more letter (R) : RANKeep going, try this : RANGNotice how the meaning changes each time with just the addition of a single letter. And each has its own context. One cannot be used in place of the other.Try a few more, here is the same block with one more letter (E) : RANGEAt this point even the pronunciation changes.Last letter Ill add here (O) : ORANGEOnce again, the meaning, context as well as pronunciation has changed.Similarly, when reading sheet music, you will most likely start off with single note phrases.Later you may go on to two-part harmony, followed by 3 part harmony, and so on.The harmony may be either via counter point or through parallel movement.Your focus should not be on reading letter by letter, rather in the chord block, just as you would read words in a sentence rather than each alphabet within the word.The blocks below are some of the very easily identifiable patterns :You will most likely use the same fingering pattern for most of these chords. So train your hands to play these patterns easily. This is the equivalent of pronunciation in spoken language.Now look at the pattern below :Notice how the inversions above look similar, and your hand position will be more or less constant when playing this ‘6 4’ chord.Learn the positions for each of the figured bass chords, that you come across in your style of music, it will help you play as you read.When you read block chords, look at only one of the notes (lowest or highest), and the pattern (root, 1st Inv, 2nd Inv, major, minor, etc.,) and play. Dont read all the notes.The same applies to reading broken chords in the form of triplets, or Alberti bass patterns.Next, when you come across patterns like these :In the first bar, for right hand, there is a run that starts from D, and goes on for a total of 6 notes, or you can say it ends at Bb.Here, you wont need to read every note in between, just read the pattern as first note, followed by number of notes, or first note till last note, and then play all the notes in between on that key signature.One more pointer before I submit the answer on this one : Look for repeated patterns! In the same example above, notice how bars 3 and 4 have the same melody in the bass clef, as the 1st and 2nd bars for the treble clef. So you already know the notes and rhythm. Just focus on playing them.There are different ways to improve your sight reading further. Always focus on identifying familiar patterns and repetitions.Try reading the following names written in English :This is just to show you that unless you are familiar with this subject, you cannot read these as easily as you can read other words. The same goes with music, and you may not be able to play all the styles as you can your favourite pieces. Some really do take practice and are not meant for ‘sight reading’ by the average musician in general.

What are some good experiences with seeding/promoting YouTube videos? What works best (blog/community outsignNow, ads, clickfarms)
In this post I will try to address the various techniques that you can utilize to promote your video and get lots of views for it. It's important to note that in order to get a lot of organic traffic on YouTube, you will need to understand that its search algorithm is based on: number of views a video receives, the rating and the number of comments. 1. CREATE A LIST OF KEYWORDSFirst thing you should do is a create list of keywords that you want to target with your video. You can use Google’s Keyword Traffic Estimator (https://adwords.google.com/selec...) to help you determine the most searched keywords for your niche. Remember, the more searched the keyword, the more competition it will have, but it also means that if you can beat out competition you will get a lot of views for your video.2. FOLLOW THE LEADERAfter you came up with your list of keywords, go to YouTube and search videos that match them. Once the results are displayed click on the “sort by relevance” link and scroll down to “view count”. This will sort out the videos with most views. Click on the video then proceed to click on the “more info” link. You should see the tags that the author of that video used. Copy those tags into your videos “tags” box. You should do this for as many videos as you like. The more tags the better! YouTube will not show duplicate tags so they will weed out the duplicates for you.This technique will help you get your video to show up in the “related video” section of the videos that are already getting lots of views for the keywords you want to target. This could easily mean hundreds if not thousands of targeted views for your video.3. PINGINGThe very first thing you should do after uploading a video is go to www.pingler.com. In the space provided under “website name or title”, type in the title of your video. Fill in the videos URL. Select a category. Enter the CAPTCHA and click on the “ping my site” button.Amongst other things, pinging informs the search engines that there is new content available for indexing.4. COMMENTINGCommenting on other people’s videos can have a major impact on the amount of views your videos and profile receive. But the first thing you should do after uploading a video is be the first to comment on it! (yes, comment on your own video) This will encourage others to follow along.I have not seen many bloggers or marketers do this but it can dramatically increase the amount of comments and ratings your video receives. Just saying something simple such as “Please tell me what you think… leave a comment” or “Give me some feedback… leave a comment and rate the video” can have a positive effect on your efforts. When commenting on other people’s videos, I usually will try to find the one’s with a large number of views or go the opposite direction and comment on the newest videos to make sure I’m the first.Here is how to find the latest videos in your niche: Start out by doing a standard search for your keyword(s). Hover your mouse cursor over “Uploaded: Anytime” link and a dropdown menu will appear. You can either select “today” or “this week”.To find the videos in your niche with the most views search YouTube for your keyword(s). Once the results are displayed click on the “sort by: relevance” link and scroll down to “view count”. Immediately after you comment on someone’s video, send them a “friend” request. Having a large amount of YouTube friends will boost your credibility and also add additional social proof. Doing this will also increase the likelihood of that person publishing the comment. One of myfavorite strategies to use when commenting on videos is doing the video producer a small favor.Leave a comment saying that you submitted their video to Digg, posted it on your Facebook wall, or even sent out a tweet to all your Twitter followers. Often times these comments will be published without hesitation and some people will return the favor.5. SHARE YOUR VIDEO ON SOCIAL NETWORKSOnce you have uploaded your video to one of the popular video sharing sites, you should share it with as many people as possible. You should start with your own social network and share it on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and other social networking sites. As you share it with your friends ask them to share it with their friends by either positing it as part of the status update on Facebook or asking people to re-tweet on Twitter. You should seek out special interest groups that would be interested in seeing your video. For example, if you created a video about skateboarding, post your video on Facebook among Skateboarding groups and fans of various Skateboarding brands.6. FORUM AND BLOG MARKETINGOne thing that I’ve had success with was promoting it on relevant forums. For example, if it is a video about dog training, it could be promoted on dog forums (there are plenty!). Basically you want to find your audience, and head there. You can put it in your signature, or even make a post about it. Just be careful that you don’t push too hard, as that could turn people off.You should also signNow out to Blogs and first leave your video as a comment, but contact the author as well to ask them to feature your video as future blog post. You should seek out Yahoo Groups and should post your video for their members to see. Post your video on as many places as possible. 7. GETTING YOUR VIDEO RATEDAs you share your video among your social network and on forums, ask people to rate it high. A high rated video will show up higher on search results, and if you target the right keywords will result in higher “targeted” views.8. SOCIAL BOOKMARKINGSubmitting your videos to popular social bookmarking websites such as Digg, StumbleUpon, and Del.icio.us can produce a heavy stream of increased traffic to your videos. Submitting to these sites will also help your video get indexed faster and provide extra link juice to increase your search engine rankings. One of the keys to effective social bookmarking is submitting other people’s content and not just your own. People who use these sites will see your profile and consider your account purely self-promotional or even worse they may see it as spam if all you are doing is submitting your own content.There is a lot of value in passing around quality information and even if the content isn’t your own, you can still be viewed as an authority if you are providing readers with valuable links to quality information.TIP – Always inform the original video/content owner that you have submitted their work to a social bookmarking website. You may get the favor returned.You can semi-automate the social bookmarking process by using a free site: http://www.socialmarker.com/, you can submit your videos URL to 48 social bookmarking websites. Or you can automate the process using social bookmarking software. The two I recommend are: Social Bookmarking Demon (http://bookmarkingdemon.com/), SocialBot (http://www.socialbot.org/).9. WEB 2.0 BLOG DISTRIBUTIONYou can use Posterous (http://posterous.com/) – to distribute your videos across multiple blogs and social networking websites.The first thing you will want to do is set up accounts and a simple blog on these services: Blogger (http://www.blogger.com/), Xanga (http://www.xanga.com/), Tumblr (http://www.tumblr.com/), LiveJournal (http://www.livejournal.com/). (You will also have a blog automatically created for you on posterous). Send an e-mail to post@posterous.com The first e-mail you send posterous should be a“test” e-mail.Place the word “test” in the subject line and just some random text in the email body. Posterous will automatically create a blog for you. You can change your blogs URL and create a username and account. In the top right hand corner of the screen, click on the “manage” link. Then, on the manage screen select “Autopost” of the left hand side. Click the “add service” button to add all of your various blogs.Now you can e-mail posterous (post@posterous.com) and your videos will automatically be post on these various sites.Enter the title of your video in the subject line. You can copy and paste the description either before or after the video. Place the link to your video. Select anchor text. The anchor text you use should be a keyword you are trying to rank for.10. ARTICLE MARKETINGWriting articles and submitting them to popular article directories can be a greatsource of additional views to your videos. Writing an article in under 10 minutes: http://mjthompson.net/257/how-to.... Doing this also provides backlinks back to your video meaning higher search results. A list of 1010 article directories: http://www.directorycritic.com/a...VIDEO SEEDING COMPANIESIf you would like to skip the headache of marketing your video, you can use of many seeding agencies to help you desired amount of views from the demographic that you want. There are a number of seeding agencies in the U.S., among the most popular ones are Virool (www.virool.com), Feed Company, ShareThrough, Jun Group and AlphaBird. Two U.K. based seeding agencies have recently introduced their services in the U.S.: ViralFactory and Unruly Media. These companies basically take your video, charge you a certain price and deliver the desired amount of views that you would want.Most of these companies will not work with anyone who has a budget of less than $100,000 and will charge anywhere between $.20-$.45 per view. They are not a great solution if you would like to just test effectiveness of a viral video as part of your overall marketing strategy. However this is a reason why my team and I created Virool (www.virool.com). Virool is basically an AdSense for video content, we distribute to blogs, games on social networks as well as iPhones. We signNow over 2 million people daily with our videos and our budgets start as low as $1000. Please check us out, e-mail me if you would like to set up a specific campaign: alex@virool.com

How do I register my company and logo in India?
Incorporating a company in India is slightly difficult than you may think. Its better you hire a CS, CA or a Lawyer to do it for you. Nonetheless, here is the process:(1) Obtain DIN (Director Identification Number) from Registrar of Companies, Ministry of Corporate Affairs of all the proposed Directors in your Company. (2) Obtain DSC (Digital Signature Certificate) from any of the authorities recognised by Registrar of Companies of all the Directors. (3) Apply in a prescribed format to the Registrar of Companies for the approval of name of your company. You need to provide a minimum of 5 options to the Registrar in this form.(4) Once you receive the name approval from the Registrar of Companies, you need to file the following documents with that office: (a) Memorandum of Association(b) Article of Association(c) Form 32 (Details of Directors)(d) Form 18 (Registered Office details)(e) Form 1 (Compliance with the Act) FEESThe official fees for which you will receive receipts (for a Company with an Authorised Capital of Rs 1 lakh) will be approximately Rs 11,000. Rest of it will be the fee of the working professional. On an average you're likely to spend Rs 5000 to Rs 10000 in addition to the official fee, so that the total price comes out to somewhere between Rs 16000 and Rs 21000.TIME FRAMEIf everything goes smoothly, you can register your Company within 20 to 30 days. However, if an objection is raised on an issue, it may take longer, as well. Good luck!Nitin

What actually happens in a UPSC interview?
I have had the opportunity of giving 'THE UPSC INTERVIEW' twice, one in 2016 and other in 2017. Both the time I had the same board headed by former Air Marshal Ajit Bhonsale.I was awarded pretty good scores both the times, 184 (in 2016) and 187 (in 2017) :)Before I answer what happens in UPSC interview, let me break some myths.MYTHSInterview questions are not like the whatsapp forwards you recieve. Example : How to throw egg from a building without breaking it?Interview is not a system of rejection or acceptance. It is just a part of whole process , your written marks are added in your interview score to determine your rank. So you may have high written score but low interview marks can mar your chances of rank and vice versa.Interview is not a test of your knowledge. Knowledge has already been tested in written examination. Interview is test of your personality and confidence. Obviously questions are asked to test your confidence but if you don't know the answer you can say “I don't know sir/ma'am” confidently instead of bluffing. You have to be truely honest.Some interview boards are dreaded due to myth that they give low marks but I think every board has its range of marks( Bhonsale Sir board is dreaded but he awarded me good marks both the times). It is just that every board chairman has probably different parameters and ways of testing you. For example : Ajit Bhonsale sir will make you really comfortable but sometimes when you become very comfortable you let yourself loose and commit blunders. On other hand B.S. Bassi sir is very strict ( I have heard) , puts in you in spot for the first few minutes. His strategy is maybe to check you during tough times.UPSC interview is not like a roadies audition. All the members of the board are highly cordial.BEFORE UPSC INTERVIEWNight before the interview is really tough. There are butterflies in your stomach. There is soo much going on in your head that sleeping becomes a task.On the day of interview it becomes quite a task for us girls because we have to tie a saree. My mom was with me so she helped me with that but handling the saree gracefully is your task. I want to tell you that I wore the same green colour saree for both my interviews because after my first interview I thought it was lucky for me :)2016 interview2017 interview ( 5 kg lighter!!)Once you signNow UPSC office on Shahjahan road , you are made to stand in a line outside the gate for verification by showing summon letters. For me this moment for the first time was in 2016 and it was really mesmerizing. I was like Aamir Khan ’s character in “3idiots” movie where he couldnt stop smiling because it felt like a dream.After all verification candidates are made to sit in a room for document verification. There are 6 tables with 6 candidates each. All the 6 candidates on one table go to same interview board. After document checking candidates are moved to a central hall. Here we are finally told which board we are assigned.Candidates are called one by one for the interview and headed towards respective members 's rooms. A candidate is called 5 minutes before the previous candidates 's interview is over. So you are made to sit outside the interview room. This is the most unnerving moment. My strategy used to be: to sit and gaze around so that I don't think about the impending interview and calming myself in the process. And finally after few minutes the peon asks you to GO INSIDE!!DURING THE INTERVIEWHere I will narrate my 2017 CSE interview held on 24 th April 2018:I entered the room I wished everyone good afternoon ( it was around 1:30 pm ). I was asked to take seat. The interview board had chairman (Air Marshal Ajit Bhonsale Sir in my case) and 4 other members seated around a table. There was a member seating very close to me and watching my every action, most probably he was psychoanalysist or something like that.So finally the interview started :CHAIRMANChairman : Shilpa sit down. Feel comfortable. Take a deep breath. I see a young and smart lady in front of me who has a very good academic background. Are you nervous?Me: No sir ( I smiled)CHAIRMAN : Ok then we will start with the interview.Which areas you are expecting that we would ask from DAF ( detailed application form , it is like a CV which contains information about you, your qualification, your hobbies etc).Me: Sir about my graduation i.e. BDS , my birthplace Chandigarh and hobbiesChairman : What do you derive from making greeting cards? ( Apart from reading , teaching/ mentoring , I mentioned “making handmade greeting cards” as my hobby in DAF)Me: Sir, it is a form of creative expression for me which gives me immense pleasure.Chairman : Ok shilpa.MEMBER 1M1 : What are your views on death sentence for rape accused in case victim is below 12 years? Accused are generally known to victim in cases of child abuse cases.Me : Sir ,you are right. NCRB records state that in child sexual abuse cases 94% of accused are known to victim. This may lead to non reporting or victim turning hostile due to pressure from family.Secondly, death penalty is not a deterrent. It has been proven from many reports.Thirdly , now rape and murder have same punishment so now the rapist will not leave his victim alive .(M1 : good point Dr. Shilpa)M1 : Have you heard about euthanasia? What is the recent SC judgement.Me: Euthanasia in common terms means mercy killing. It is of two types : active and passive euthanasia. Recently SC has allowed passive euthanasia in case patient is in permanent vegetative state.M1: Who decides it is time for euthanasia?Me: Sir , It consists of three layered mechanism . A mechanism for living will has been given which is accessed by the doctor. If he feels that there is need for go ahead the permission is send to a special medical board which consists of four specialists. After approval it is forwarded to district collector.M1: What is living will?Me: It is a directive by a patient that in due course of his treatment if stops responding to treatment or is in permanent vegetative state he be considered for passive euthanasia.MEMBER 2M2 : Comment on our relations with our neighbours with respect to Bangladesh , Nepal.Me: Sir , Neighbourhood first policy has been major component of our foreign policy.Good relations with Bangladesh for example recently land boundary agreement was signed very amicably. There is just one irritant in form of teesta water treaty.Nepal we have historical and cultural ties. 'BETI AND ROTI' ka rishta. A buffer state.
