Craigslist is extremely useful. But the way this lady intended is certainly not the most efficient use of that site! Its a bad idea to try and knock off your lover's wife in order to marry him. Things get a bit worse when you use Craigslist to advertise for the hit killer! This lady obviously lacked smarts when she went to Craigslist and was offering people money to eradicate a lady in North California! Read more

Two people who have lived together for a long time have an image of each other which prevents them from really being in relationship. If we understand relationship we can co-operate but co-operation cannot possibly exist through images, through symbols, through ideological conceptions. … Read more

Mathematicians are more religious than their scientist brethren. A survey by National Academy of Science shows Mathematicians are 2.5 times more likely to believe in God than Biologists (14.6% Mathematicians vs 5.5% biologists). Well, that is a lot of people of number believing in a God. No match against a common Canadian. Canadians, in general, have a score of 80% - their scorn for conservative led Bush Government notwithstanding! As somebody said: With or without religion, good people will do good, and evil people will do evil. But for good people to do evil, that takes religion So, does the concept of "God" need to oscillate between disbelief and belief? Read more

Well a tough question...after having couple of unsuccessful experiences, my theory towards love has changed. It is no more unselfish dedication, care, belongingness, understanding, a hindi word "SATH" & emotional bonding. Now love is a complete package of need and " Zarurat " a hindi word. and when it is completed people leave the person behind and walk away. The word has completely lost its meaning. Sukriti Read more

Love is losing of identity. To be immersed in the universal ocean of consciousness. When you can receive or want to receive, it is not love anymore. True Love cannot be "directed".. for what is directed toward someone/something, is directed away from someone/something. And Love cannot be away or against anyone. Read more

In years gone by, when we were all growing up in India in the 1980s, do you remember how you saw your TV? Not everyone had a TV at home. Only some had it. And some of us would go to neighbor's house to watch that odd movie. Remember? I am sure everyone would remember the time when your household got their first black & white TV! Do you remember? Which TV was it? I still remember. Our 1st and only B&W TV was EC TV. We had just returned from Haridwar when we came home to see this TV that my Dad had bought as a surprise for all of us. The program that we had on was Krishi Darshan - a program for the farmers. There were only a few programs that you would get on the TV: Samachar (News) - both in Hindi and English; Chitrahaar (movie songs - MOST popular program); the Sunday movie (do you remember the movie that was always shown during a solar eclipse? for answer look below somewhere); and the Samachar. Read more

When I say I know you, I mean I knew you yesterday. I do not know you actually now. All I know is my image of you. That image is put together by what you have said in praise of me or to insult me, what you have done to me – it is put together by all the memories I have of you – and your image of me is put together in the same way, and it is those images which have relationship and which prevent us from really communing with each other. Read more

Reminiscing about my brief stay with the communities one particular incident left an everlasting impression on my mind and am sure so shall it influence every worker. Having been assigned the task of touring some villages in Tehri during one of my training segments we had planned to tour some interior villages in the Upper Balganga valley (Origin point for one of the tributaries of the Ganges). En route to the village we saw women and men working in the fields. When the meeting started to our dismay we found that there was not even one man who was in a condition to talk. All of them were drunk and dead tired. One person in some of his senses told me that most of them have toiled hard in the field from morning till evening and are not in a condition to even sit straight. I asked him that may be the same should have been the case with the women. The even more surprising reply came that now they have to take care of the household as well. Gender definition of roles was crying for Redefinition. Read more
