I am from a country where...

"I sometimes don't understand what is happening around me... And yet I am called a Swami who knows all - I don't understand that either"

I am from a country where...
  • people are actually fighting to be called "Backward" and show proof also to support it
  • most people are either khota or under quota
  • people become happy for introducing more reservations and quotas and don't realise that it is dividing people on more lines than already existing
  • the benchmark for calling someone minority got erased long back. There exists only one rule - Hindus are majorities, everyone else is a minority
  • people run marathons for causes... that's it! [Artistick makes fun of marathons here]
  • I am made to listen to opinions of a VJ (who was uncomfortable because there was nobody to press the *BEEP* button) who is sitting with top Army officials and top politicians about diplomatic issues.
  • I am made to read the opinions about any thing on earth of the same fashion "gurus" who do nothing more than booze, get caught with drugs, appear on page 3. (And you call ME a Swami who knows all...)
  • people throw stones at random shops and break window panes and wind shields of buses because an actor died a natural death. Hey! That's the way they show their remorse... But I wonder why they were grinning though
  • we have a majority of minorities
  • the media is capable of swaying a large number of people at the same time, and many times, the media is wrong themselves.
  • students are committing suicide for a separate state. One precious life lost, and I am not sure how their deaths are supposed to do anything.
  • the grandchild usually gets to hear the result of the case fought by the grandparent.
  • everyone wants to be number one when it comes to traffic, and nowhere else
India continues to be the single greatest country in the world - Many people may not appreciate it and may point out at the various flaws, poverty, illiteracy, etc. But we continue to progress in spite of all these issues.

Just imagine the situation, if we didn't have corruption, and value was given to merit, and speed of justice was increased ten fold...

Swami Gulagulaananda said: " When in a game, play... " I have won several lotteries organised by Shell, Coca Cola and other companies. Each prize was no less than 500,000 GBP. And I have also been fortunate to share my surname with super rich heirless millionaires, facilitating unscrupulous lawyers to wire their enormous funds into my account so that I can send them their share for making it happen. Considering the number of lotteries I have won and number of inheritances in my name, I am richer than Bill Gates ten times over. But alas, we are aware of how scams work. Some of us, at least. So I continue to be penniless as before. Recently, I got an email - The brevity of which prompted me to reply, and then began an interesting conversation. from: Robert Adair to: r-adair@hotmail.co.uk date: 17 October 2013 21:29 subject: Your revert awaited having a proposal to discuss with you To which I replied, with equal conciseness...

THE CURIOUS CASE OF RAHUL GANDHI - Nitin Gupta(Rivaldo)

Swami Gulagulaananda said: " If there is one thing which annoys me more than lying, it's hypocrisy " An excellent read this is - Share it with everyone. I picked this from a blog and the author of that blog picked it from an email. So anyway, I thought it was appropriate to give credit to the blog - http://shilps882.blogspot.com/2011/05/curious-case-of-rahul-gandhi-nitin.html?spref=fb ------------------------ Got this article via email forwards. The article is signed by journalist Nitin Gupta(Rivaldo) of whom I learnt only today. It is a good read! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DISCLAIMER: I DON'T ENDORSE ANY POLITICAL PARTY. NOR DO I ENDORSE ANY OF WHAT MAYAWATI IS DOING. I WAS JUST TAKEN ABACK BY RAHUL GANDHI'S HYPOCRITICAL COMMENT AT THE RECENT FARMER AGITATION IN UTTAR PRADESH. Rahul Gandhi: "I feel ashamed to call myself an INDIAN after seeing what has happened here in UP". PLEASE DON'T BE ASHAMED

To each his own

Swami Gulagulaananda challenged " It's time to have the greatest discussion now for a face-off... I dare all religious 'experts' to come here and put your thoughts across " The reason I am writing this article is simple - I recently got some scraps on Orkut from a person who calls himself (montse) Jesus Loves You . And they were some really interesting scraps. They are pasted here as is: (montse) Jesus : hi i don't know u, but all i have to say is that Jesus loves you, died for ur sins believe Jesus for eternity Nik : Hi, I don't know you - But I want to tell you that Sri Krishna loves you - Read the Bhagavad Gita and free yourself from the cycle of rebirth. Believe in Him. (montse) Jesus : but none died for your sins except Jesus, you should receive your salvation only by believing Jesus as your saviour Nik : See, that's where you are wrong - You start off with the assumption that one has to die for someone else's sins. Sri Krishna makes
