'In
the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. But in the keen-eyed world
of cricket, a fellow with just one good eye-and-a-bit has to settle for
something less than the perfection he once sought. Lucky me, despite this, to have
been able to play the game all over the world in the company of giants.' Pataudi about himself.
I was taken straight to what was like an ashram with a temple. There in a room slightly spacious with carpets spread all over the floor in the middle sat Yogiji on an asana with his disciples, I presume , around and also some visitors. I was introduced to him and he called me straight to him and made to sit near him for many hours. He was talking in Gujarati, not Hindi, but easy for me to understand. His face, radiant, his smile so broad and never leaving him, his protruding teeth, slightly shriveled body, upper part of the body totally uncovered is what I vaguely recollect now, after four decades.
He retired, joined a private service in the meantime but was still eligible for that promotion which was denied to him.
He cane again two days before the confidence motion of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and asked me if he could get it now when he seemed to be on the top of the panel prepared for this most prestigious promotion which is equivalent to that of a High Court judge. I said nothing could deprive him of the post this time.
But there loomed the uncertainty of the future of the prime minister Manmohan Singh himself he said. I said that since the ouster of the UPA government did not take place before June as the leftists had a poor sense of timing, there was no chance of the fall of the government. Something like July 26 1993 could happen when P.V.Narasimha Rao managed it through corrupt methods.
That happened on the evening of 23 July 2008 when he UPA government survived through the staggering defections of fifteen voters and ten abstentions. Then Manmohan Singh got time and signed the file at the earliest and this friend of mine got the prestigious promotion and joined his post as early as Saturday 26th.

He rang me up today and thanked me.
He is running the dasha of Saturn-Venus-Sun in Vimshottari dasha--Saturn is the tenth lord and Venus and Sun are in the tenth house.
In dashamansha Saturn is in tenth house in his own rashi and Venus is in lagna in his own rashi while Sun in the eleventh house shows that big elevation which has created heart burn in the hearts of his colleagues intriguing against him and the former political boss who wanted to promote his own man of his own region and caste.
In Chara dasha it is Simha (Leo) from where the atmakaraka and Amatyakaraka are in the eleventh house aspected by Darakaraka forming two rajayogas.
The Antardasha is Meena (Pisces) from, where all these rajayoga forming karakas are aspecting the tenth house.
The Pratyantara dasha is of Kumbha (Aquarius) from where these karakas aspect the eleventh house.
There is no need to beat about the bush and go into all complicated new fangled untested dashas on doubtful divisional charts.
