There are many people who will give you the purpose of life; they will tell you what the sacred books say. Clever people will go on inventing what the purpose of life is. The political group will have one purpose, the religious group will have another purpose, and so on and on. So, what is the purpose of life when you yourself are confused? When I am confused, I ask you this question, "What is the purpose of life?" because I hope that through this confusion, I shall find an answer. How can I find a true answer when I am confused? Do you understand? Read more

One heck of an interesting coincidence here.. A computer error gave two women in America called Patricia the same social security number. When the two women were brought together in an office to rectify the blunder they discovered that * They had both been born with the names Patricia Ann Campbell * Both of their fathers were called Robert Campbell * Their birthdays were on 13th March 1941 * They had both married military men in the year 1959 (within eleven days of each other) * They each had two children aged 19 and 21 * They both had an interest in oil painting * Both had studied cosmetics * Both had worked as book-keepers Read more
Something unknown is pulling the Universe to it. And the speed is more than 2 million miles per hour. It is as if the "thing" [Dark Matter - uncreatively characterising the unknown as "Dark" by the scientists] is outside the Universe and is relentless pulling stuff from our Universe. Maybe our Universe is after all NOT just it.. but part of a Multi-verse. So, says a study by Alexander Kashlinsky, an astrophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland Dark flow was named in a nod to dark energy and dark matter—two other unexplained astrophysical phenomena. The newfound flow cannot be explained by, and is not directly related to, the expansion of the universe, though the researchers believe the two types of movement are happening at the same time.

This was a prank played on Sarah Palin - who was so close to becoming the VP of the US! It must have been so embarrassing for her.. but the way that guy was talking and the sort of remarks he was making, it was pretty clear that he certainly NOT Sarkozy! But it takes a little bit of experience and smarts to understand that! First of all, the entire team was idiotic to even allow such un-vetted call through.. and then Palin was as stupid to even speak to that guy... Read more
Wanted to bring to you some questions from the 129th hymn of the Rig Veda. These are questions that are indeed worth pondering upon... they point to a mind that does not want to create an artificial and intellectual answer and claim the conundrum is "solved". It takes questions and doubts as central to the exploration. 1. Then there was neither being nor not-being. The atmosphere was not, nor sky above it. What covered all? and where? by what protected? Was there the fathomless abyss of waters? 2. Then neither death nor deathless existed; Of day and night there was yet no distinction. Alone that one breathed calmly, self-supported, Other than It was none, nor aught above It. 3. Darkness there was at first in darkness hidden; The universe was undistinguished water. That which in void and emptiness lay hidden Alone by power of fervor was developed. Read more
Part one Let’s choose the year 1,222 A.D the date? It’s today’s date. The countries picked out are: Egypt, Spain, England, Italy, Turkey, India, China, Mexico and Peru. The experienced had by many people interested in time travelling strongly suggested traveling mentally to the foot of The Sphinx. It has a secret pass way, a very long tunnel that ends in the middle of the Great Pyramid. There is a ladder that goes all the way up until we enter the King’s Chamber. Here in this sacred place when we suddenly realize that its four granite walls have been the easy way to travel both to safe time travel as well as direct channel to all the countries on Earths surface. It would be a good idea to start around these three pyramids plus the Eternal Sphinx. At what walking distance is the Nile River? Read more
