- A emotional poetic spirit, a artist.Now in service of Mother Nature.Working in a movement which originates from deep compassion , concern and empathy for Nature, society and my ecological heritage.It is KVM -The Movement for Natural Farming and Ecological Restoration of Punjab based at Jaitu,Faridkod. Ecological Spiritualism is my religion as I always say God is omni present in entire nature and hurting nature is violence against the God . One should see the divine in fields and farms . Isopanishad says "Esavasyamidam Sarvam Yatkinchit jagatyam jagat, thena tyaktena bhunjeetha magrudh kasya swiddhanam" , which means that whatever we see and feel around us, material or spiritual, belongs to the Divine. So we have to share it according to the Divine Law. This develops a holistic consensus globally for the consumption of the available resources and their distribution and availability to the mankind. We as nations or as individuals are the trustees of the possessions that God has given us.

Aroon Purie is an Indian businessman, and the founder & editor in chief of India Today, a leading newsmagazine of India. He has served as editor of the magazine since founding it in 1975. India Today is printed in several languages other than English.
A chartered accountant, Purie first revived Thomson Press. He then set up Living Media to publish India Today, which has redefined magazine journalism in the country. The India Today group which has grown out of the magazine, is one of the largest media conglomerates in India.
.
Apart from a number of publications, the group also controls TV Today, which owns the popular Hindi news channel Aaj Tak in December 2000. TV Today, whose CEO is G Krishnan is a listed company whose shares are traded on the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange. Other than Aaj Tak they also run three other channels – ‘Headlines Today’ an English language news channel, which has not been able to dent the lead of channels like NDTV, ‘Tez’ a snappy-format news channel, using a concept borrowed from CNN Headline News but in Hindi and Aaj Tak Dilli a local news channel for Delhi. A Business news channel in collaboration with Bloomberg is also expected shortly.
Aroon was educated at the Doon School, as were two editors of India Today (Suman Dubey and Inderjit Bhadwar). He earned a BSc Economics from the London School of Economics in 1965. He is married to Rekha Purie,a former model. He has 3 children, Kalli Purie, Koel Purieand Ankur Purie. His brother-in-law is the famous heart surgeon, Dr. Naresh Trehan.
India Today magazine was started by Aroon Purie’s father, V.V.Purie and his sister Madhu Trehan. Aroon Purie had nothing to do with it until he took it over two years later when his sister returned to the United States and they couldn’t keep any editor they hired. His sister Madhu Trehan was also instrumental in taking the India Today group into the television media, when she started Newstrack and then Aaj Tak. Aroon Purie"s youngest sister, Mandira Purie worked as a photojournalist with India Today. |
