UN conducted a survey. The question was:"Would you please give your honest opinion abt d shortage of food in d rest of d world?" The survey was a failure as.. In Africa d people did not know what 'food' was. In China they did not know what 'opinion' was. Europeans did not know what 'shortage' was. Pak and India did not know what 'honest' meant. Saudi arabia did not know what 'please' was. And Americans did not know what 'rest of the world' meant!

Guys, I was browsing through Vikram bhaiyas blog and found an extremely intelligent and hilarious war of words - German v/s English. Its too good. Just couldn't resist sharing http://www.vikramhazra.com/2010/03/bit-of-banter.html See above link or read below: The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.  As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".  In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k".

The last five days I have been meeting him daily. His presence exudes peace and awareness. His words bring solace, intrigues the seeker and kindle wisdom. I am in awe of his wisdom, I am inspired by his dedication, In his presence, my heart wells up in gratitude and my soul feels elevated. A few excerpts from his Gyan Vani: Being with nothing is Meditation, Doing for nothing is Seva, Singing for nothing is Satsang.

Words that bring neither solace nor give direction to the listener are best not spoken. Six reasons to use words: 1. To inquire about life 2. To bless 3. To praise 4. To delegate work 5. To give knowledge 6. To tell Guru stories More may follow, or the best thing is meet him...

When ur girl friend / boy friend ditches you resulting in a break off...: 1. Thank god/guru it happened now instead of much later which would have put you in a deeper bigger mess. 2. Know that emotions are like fishes in the ocean called YOU. Fishes play in the ocean and with the ocean and even fight amongst themselves. Fishes will perish but the ocean remains. Who is bigger? The fish or the ocean. So don't become a slave of your emotions, YOU are a temporary abode for them, sooner or later they will leave you. YOU still remain. YOU are infinte. YOU are eternal. 3. Some karmas of the past births or this had brought the two of you together. If the karma quota is over then your struggle to unite again could turn out to be an endless one. Just let go. And who knows there may be someone better in store, but your holding onto the past is postponing the new arrival. 4. Isn't it a relief to be off the close circuit surveillance? 5. Once married you will never get a chance to be single...
