Economical way to Talk to India from Singapore

A person of Indian origin living in Singapore, gets habituated to making calls to India to talk to ones near and dear ones. So what is the most economical and best way to speak to india from Singapore? Lets see here some of the ways are mentioned here and compared as well.

1. 018 call using Starhub mobile Phone services -15 cents per minute (most expensive)
2. Airtel call home service (http://www.airtelcallhome.com/ )-240 minutes in 10 $ (Service not very good and a lot of times the phone gets corss connected to some other numbers, callback service is not properly supported as well)
3. India magic Phone card from little India. (300 minutes in 8.5$)
4. Access Phone card from Little India (250 minutes in 8.5$) -BEST OPTION and GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY

The easiest way to call India is using the 018 service provided by starhub which helps you make a call to India for the same amount as a local call in Singapore which is 15 cents, but of all the options though teh quality is the best, this is the most expensive option. I used to use this option when i was new and was not aware of the other options available.

Then i started using Aurtel callhome service, which is an online account which one can top up and start making calls after registering the phone number. But this options was not very good because many a times i was connected to wrong numbers though i dialed the correct number and also the service operators said that they do not support teh call back facility which makes it a very bad .

After using Airtel call home for some time, i decided to use the phone card India Magic available from Little India as one of my friend suggested it to me, but i soon realised that the card does not give actually 300 minutes as promised and there are a lot of loop holes. The first loop hols is that 5 minutes gets deducted every day one you activcate the card irrespective if you use it or not. Then the card also has a per call minimum talk time which my friend said was 15 minutes per call... but i failed to understand the minimum talk time as the minutes got deducted from my account very erratically even when i spoke just for 16-18 minutes at times full 30 minutes was deducted. So this option proved to be expensive as well. The quality of teh call also was not very good and there was a delay in the voice.

Finally i decided to used another phone card called Access Card from little India as well, and i am satisfied using this card so far. There are no minimum talk limit on teh card and it has per minute billing and no extra minutes are deducted. The quality of the call is also better than India Magic.

I hope you benefit from this and make a wise choice when making a call to India

Marriage as per guru granth sahib...

Various religions (though here religion should only mean a way of life and not something which divides us) specifies various definitions and ways of marriages. Here i am trying to bring forth something which i read on one of the sites about what does the Gurugranth sahib mentions about marriage which is marriage as per Sikh faith. The Sikh goal of marriage as articulated in Guru Granth Sahib is : “Those who are one-spirit in two bodies are to be considered the husband and the wife.”

There may be much more meaning in the single sentence above. One may wonder how can there be one spirit in 2 bodies? it will not be technically possible. Isnt it?

What it means is the consciousness levels of the couple normally comes at the same level. When this occurs, the above sems to be true to some extent. Some of the indian/hindu beleifs and texts, mention the same above fact by specifying the importance of a relationship by mentioning the fact that after marriage, the couple becomes so close that ones actions are pre understood by the other without any special effort. This may be somewhat similar to the attachment concept put forth in the english Relationship.

Virginia - They say it is for lovers

I would call it beautiful virginia. While remembering the good old memories of the beautiful place. I was in North Virginia... while away from the hustling and busy life of the city, NOVA was a comfortable place with huge lush green trees around everywhere specially in the summers and spring when the roads were full of multi coloured leaves.. Virginia also boasts of the many vineyards.. and lakes and falls which are well kept by teh nature . USA was an experience i will not be able to forget... though While my short year in US i did not really travel much to many places just a few which i could count on my one hand may be...

Quote for the day

When flowing water...meets with obstacles on its path, a blockage in its journey, it pauses. It increases in volume and strength, filling up in front of the obstacle and eventually spilling past it...Do not turn and run, for there is nowhere worthwhile for you to go. Do not attempt to push ahead into the danger...emulate the example of the water: Pause and build up your strength until the obstacle no longer represents a blockage.
