About Me - Chirag Patel

Namaste!

I am Chirag Patel. I was born in Vadodara, and lived in Godhara, Vansada, Vadodara, Lansdale, Souderton, Harleysville at different times. My parents - Bansibhai and Rohiniben, nurtured me with all love and care and material things that they possible could give. I have lovely siblings - Payal and Kunal. My native place is a village - Heranj near Nadiad.

I married to Parul. She is a very lovely woman. She supported me well in all different situations. She gifted me with our son - Vrund.

I am fortunate to have wonderful and supportive relatives/friends/familiars.

I did Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics from M S University, Vadodara. I attended Penn State for Master of Software Engineering, but felt disheartened continuing it.

I work as Senior Engineer, Embedded for QLogic. We develop Infiniband switches for High Performance Computing (near SuperComputer). I worked for Anjaleem, Inrange (CNT/McData). I am fortunate to learn from my very able supervisors in all the companies I worked for.

I like writing with words that come from my heart (with some sort of Dhyana). I like reading a lot. I am a supporter of Gujarati and Sanskrut. Couple of noticeable books that have influenced me: Bhagvad Gita, Bhagavatam, The Dancing WuLi Masters, A Brief History of Time, The Tao of Physics, RajaYoga, Yoga Vaashistha, Atmakatha - Gandhiji, ChandiPaath. The list goes on and on. I very much like spiritual music and Indian classical music. I am also a fan of A R Rehman. I appreciate any good music (that I like) irrespective of its origin and age.

I practice Raja Yoga every day. Atma-Dhyana is also a part of my daily worship to MAA.

    After reading a comment on my poem, I was eager to know about you naturally and lo ! here I find you on SWRANJLI ! I am very much pleased to know about you that you are so much interested in music, literature and love for Sanskrit.I have liked the article by Bansidharbhai Patel in which I find poetry in prose, something very captivating.
