"The Philosophy of Ethics"

-
Last year I did a course on a topic completely unrelated to my academic background - a course at Oxford on the 'Philosophy of Ethics'. The course choice was driven by questions I have about what is the right thing to do - a question we often face in our work and personal lives. We had 4 months of (online recorded) lectures, discussions with ‘classmates’ (all online) and multiple assignments. It was an intense journey and so insightful! Sharing below some of my theoretical and practical lessons from the course:  Overall, we delved deep into four major theories on ethics: Virtue ethics by Aristotle : According to Aristotle, the right action is the one that would be chosen by a virtuous person, and the virtuous person would know what is right, will do what is right and does it for the right reasons. In this theory, reason trumps everything else and is the only driver of virtuous actions. Also, Eudaimonia (happiness) is the aim of life. Eudaimonia is a lifelong pursuit that ...

Movie Review : 3 Idiots

-
Given the hi-profile launch of this movie, as well as the raving reviews it received, I went in with very high expectations of the movie. But the movie failed to deliver upto those built-up expectations (Am aware that many people do not agree with this at all, but unfortunately that's my view:) ) The acting is fine, the concept is fine, the story is fine.

There were some parts in the movie which stretched just too much, there were flaws in the story flow and lot of things which were just so unrealistic.

Would give the movie just 3 stars, which given the kind of reviews the movie has received elsewhere, dont match. As...

The Madrid museum series - Sorolla

This fall, I got a chance to spend a few weeks in Madrid. Madrid has always been known for its art and painting scene but I never explored it much in my earlier trips. But this time, it being lockdown season with limited things to do, plus my recently discovered love for painting led me to spend a considerable amount of time exploring the various museums of Madrid. This time around for sure, I was able to appreciate them more plus learn a bit about how I can improve my own paintings too. I visited the Thyssen, Reina Sofia, Prado and Sorolla museums during my stay. Most of them when they were free to visit. Given the pandemic, one had to book online even for the free slots, to limit the number of visitors. And surprisingly, the slots got booked very early on. All these museums are different from each other. Thyssen has paintings from a private collection and so has an eclectic mix of painters from different eras, of various painting styles. Prado covers the pre-1800 art while the R...
