Why do Senior Managers and above need drivers for their cars in India?

I was wondering the when the people purchase cars in India, initially they like to drive on their own and enjoy driving. Initially they have smaller cars, and they drive themselves, which is not such a pleasure but when they rise up in the ladder of the management , they buy big, sedan class updated cars, which is pleasure driving, but still they keep drivers and they drive then to their office and back home. I always wonder why?

May be because they grow old and get tired while driving. No i don't think that can be the reply for not driving. Even i have seen people staying near by, also have drivers and they don't drive it themselves.

They feel afraid that they might do accidents, and bang their high end cars with other cars and fall in to embarrassment and payment of dues. If the driver does the same, then they can scold him well, but the driver wont do that deliberately but of course by mistake. So they don't even want to commit that mistake with their car, though in offices they can take any wrong decisions during the meetings with their clients and goof up there.

They wonder, if they don't keep drivers, all their colleagues will feel either his salary is not good, or he is a miser, scrooge or stingy in  his approach. So they keep drivers so that everyone should feel that he is rich and no miser too. Well that can certainly be the reason.

But the main reason i feel is this that the higher management people have to drive many other things in their office. They have to drive the deadlines, the project meetings, the resource management drives, and initiate other important drives in office, which their drivers cannot, so they keep drivers to at least drive them home after such a long and tiresome day of initiating so many drives.

Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home

When there is "Om Ee Om" everywhere, and when it enters in our mind and soul, our heart glitters with this wonderful word, then our homes surely gets enlightened with "Om", everywhere,on the walls , the roof, the floor, the corners, and the entire place starts echoing with this sweet syllable, Om ee Om, Om ee Om , and then our home becomes the most sweetest place to reside and we can call as our "Home Sweet Home."

Om , the syllable, not considered as word, but a true God, is the ample positive energy in itself. Where OM comes in, all other negative and bad thoughts do not emerge there and only the enchanting smell of love, joy and happiness is surrounded around us, the encouraging sounds of care , compassion and courage echoes us and the twinkling lights of humble, strength and prayers cover us. This is a symbol that help vanish all the bad and wrong emotions within us.

I also recall Ohm's law of Resistance. This law states that more the power of "Ohm" unit, the more is the resistance, and the opposite of this is law of persistence and that is measured with the unit called "moh", which is read as "ohm" backwards. Similarly we have "Om" that we can compare with "Ohm law", the more the value of Ohm, more is the resistance,so more the name of "OM", it will reside in our hearts and we will keep worshiping, more will we be resisted to fall in this worldly affairs and pleasures and we will be brought closer to 'OM'. Same way "Moh", the persistence unit, in Hindi we call "Moh" as "attachment. So the more we have attachment with this worldly things and worldly affairs, more we will be persisted and attracted towards this world and we will be left away and taken away from God "OM."

Therefore leave all your "Moh's" away and tend towards leading your life full of "OM"
