 field from Engineering to Law. We have been blessed
with three daughters. About 20 years ago, as my
olderdaughters became young ladies in their twenties, I
realized and asked myself  if I would accept somebody
treating them the way I was treating my wife. Upon
Our father in heaven never intended for mankind to
live in solidarity, nor did He intend for any ill-will to
permeate perfection...but the fall of man changed all
of that! Suffice it to say, relationships and how we act
within the confines of friendship and Holy
Matrimony paints pictures with different hues on the
canvas of life. Now comes one, Damodar ' Dar' Airan
a contemporary of mine who brings insight on his
convictions about what it takes being that
consumate husband and father figure. He has a
unique way of articulating how men should treat
their wives to elicit favorable behavior patterns for
lasting relationships. I first met Mr. Airan and his
lovely wife, Lalita a while back as members of the
Miami chapter of Rotary Club International. The both
of them, as well as myself are ardent supporters of
mental health awareness. His upcoming book is
being readying for print on the aforementioned
ways of husbantry. I spent time with him espousing
the need for relationships to validate and foster
integral fortitude. Here is what he had to say:

become a better husband to my wife and to set an
example for my daughters. Over the years, I have
become passionate about starting a worldwide
revolution where men will want to become better
husbands and to honor their wives. I believe that in
return, the wives will also honor them and it will lead to
happier families. I believe that it will bring a lasting
change in the quality of life of the people world-wide.

DA: The most relative thing in my life is my family and
that I should be the best husband, and the best father,
that I can be. I am so fortunate to have Lalita in my life,
who is a beautiful, nurturing and generous woman. I
ACR:  For those who may not know who you want to do everything possible to honor her and to treat
are, please introduce yourself! Who are her like an equal partner. Similarly, I want to be the best
you…why do you do what you do, and why father I can be to my three daughters. In my earlier
should the world pay attention to you? professional life, I often had a philosophical conflict -
DA:  My name is Damodar “Dar” Airan. In my should I strive to be a better professional, or a better
