24,25 and 26th :An octogenarians meet

We had a short whats-app interaction on Sunday the 24th in which only Akshat and Babloo joined. I told Akshat about the 16th question answer which fetched one crore to a 19 year poor boy in 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' episode on 24th in Sony television. It asked which 'Upinasad' mentioned  'Atithi devo bhav'. There are main 108 'Upanishads'. Important are ten : Isha, Kena, Katha, Prashan, Mundaka, Mandukya, Tattiriya, Aitareya, Chhandogya and Brihadaranyaka. The expression occurs in 'Tattiriya' Upanishad. He answered correctly and won 1 crore.

On 25th attended a Lunch get-together of 1964 batch IPS officers available at Delhi,hosted by a batch mate at IIC in which almost all were octogenarians except one who was 79. In an over 3 and half an hour togetherness we shared past memories. All of us had lost much of speed in our walking and also balanced gait.A group photo of us on the occasion is given below :
