It’s already mid of Jan 2017. How fast the first week pass by!
Here I’m again, with my Saturday weekly. Let’s get on with it.
“Saturday-Pentacle”
Saturday-Pentacle – Week 2 – 2017
Greetings my internet friends,
Here are some popular links, thoughts, and articles for today’s “Saturday-Pentacle” e-mail newsletter. This is a free newsletter and goes out every Saturday only for my subscribed readers.
Enjoy!
Post of the week – My first vlog (video log) of the year 2017. I call it – “Craving of the yellow diary”
This video depicts my small expedition to South Bombay to see my friend Stuart and his Band’s live performance at The Experimental Theatre in NCPA. Hope you enjoy it, like I did while creating it.
My most popular Instagram post recently — Vienna Store. Well! We should not judge a book by its cover, but in this case, I should be forgiven for not instantly connecting elephants with eggs!
Article I’m enjoying (and pondering) — One Man’s Quest to Change the Way We Die. This guy! You’ve got to give it to him.
Spoiler alert – You may cry in between this story, it’s overwhelming in some part. When you feel how it is to lose three limbs and how it affects your whole present and the future life.
What I’m reading/watching/listening to — I follow the seeker stories page on YouTube and I found this interesting video – Why India’s Youth Are Dating In Secret. Interesting start-up idea.
A Quote I’m pondering on lately –
“Others inspire us, information feeds us, practice improves our performance, but we need quiet time to figure things out.”
— Ester Schaler Buchholz
Until Next Saturday!
Thanks for reading.

Quick endnote – as a few of you guys have told me that emails are not delivering in the Gmail primary inbox and going to promotions tab in your Gmail. I suggest below two pro tips to get my email in your Primary inbox from next time.
- Add my From email address ([email protected]) to your Google Contacts list.
Emails from your Google Contacts always go to their Primary inbox. So go ahead and add me to your contact list.
- Move your emails to the Primary tab.
You can teach Gmail where to deliver your messages. When you move one of my emails from Promotions tab to the Primary tab, Gmail asks whether it should always deliver my emails in your primary inbox. So please do that. You can also read more about these Gmail Help instructions.
