Tata Consultancy
Services India hired him as a software Engineer in Feb 1993. In 2001, he was with
Standard & Poors Credit Rating division, New York, USA. By then, he was
suffering from dreary kidney disease. As a result, he nearly died. His wife was
seven months pregnant then. They landed in India on emergency in Dec 2001. God
blessed them with a baby girl named Nivetha on 9th Feb 2002.
His younger
sister offered one of her kidney and he underwent Kidney
Transplantation on 15th May 2002 at Apollo hospital Chennai. He is
distilled with a second life, a renewed hope. He helps to orphanages, sponsors
the hill tribe children, visits the missionary fields and stand as a witness in
churches as a missionary. He attempts to reunite the separated couples,
counsels the deserved; mentors the needed; and encourages people to pursue
their dreams.
He
is the Chief Technology Officer in a growing Corporate and building career to
the young Engineers and giving business solutions to Business Managers. He is a
role model for those fighting the dreaded disease. He reminisces, put away the
memories of life; expressing out his experience in writing. He looks out
neither an unparalleled career nor a highest civilian award, but, to serve the
poor and teach the Gospels.
The
book is an experience of some of the storms in his life and how he gets along
with. It’s about how he is on the way back to life. In his early thirties, he
had everything – education, money, wife, job, home, successful career. But, in
later thirties, he lost everything for a while.
‘Life is empty,’ he says. Everyone come to this world in empty hands and
everyone will leave this world in empty hands. "In the end, when it's
over, all that matter is what we've done," he quotes.
This
book has 4 divisions: his youth days in India, his stint in the USA, his
survival back in India and his joyous journey as a missionary. He looks for a
spiritual transcendence. He is interested to work for the hill tribes’
education.
