Friend Philosopher Guide...words easily bandied but impossible to live up to. Well Vijay did it with ease and I am grateful to have come across this force of nature - in his intellect, emotion, generosity, care and of course this man was born mature. When folk like me were struggling to know they were, what they stood for (if anything) at college and in life - Sathye always knew! and Sathye would always deliver with a clarity and simplicity so profound that you would kick yourself and think - shit I dint even realise that. Yet Sathye had no airs - completely untouched by the force of his own intelligence (far more men have been far more proud about far less) and later his deserved success. So untouched in fact...that for many decades he had the ST Bus challenge that we kept refreshing (but dint actually undertake)...that after decades and some success could we travel on a State Transport Bus without being bothered. Like so many tests Sathye faced, I am sure he would have left us all in the dust in that challenge too. My eyes cloud over so many times just thinking of him and writing these few lines that do him scare justice. Shine on Sathye...for you certainly will in my heart.
