Snippets

"Any team that turns up for a match will have good chances of winning a test match" - Kevin Pieterson (We knew he is one of a kind, but does he really believe this, or is he trashing the Indian team?)

"Let me put it to you bluntly. In a changing world we want more people to have control over your life" - George W Bush (Can't get any blunter than that, not even a Neanderthal!)

"Nuclear powered vacuum cleaners will probably be a reality within ten years" - Alex Lewyt, President of the Lewyt Corp Vacuum Company "Next Christmas the ipod will be dead, finished, gone, kaput" - Sir Alan Sugar, the founder of Amstrad, in 2005 "Nobody would ever need more than 640KB of memory on their personal computer" - Bill Gates, 1981 (Hard to believe he would have said that. May be he meant the human brain?) "Two years from now, spam will be solved" - Bill Gates, again, 2004. For more of the ten worst predictions in the world, here,T3 magazine,

"Once somebody asked me, "Swamiji, nobody is happy in this world!" "I agree with you hundred percent", I said, "because No-body alone is happy. Spiritual life is remaining a Mr.Nobody. No-body has no thoughts, no worries, no doubts. Therefore No-body is all bliss". How do we become Somebody? Mr.Somebody is a coolie carrying the load of the total past and exhibiting the collected garbage in the present. There Mr. Nobody is living in the utter present, when you have no past to carry the load and be misrable under any load. Everyone is miserable, let it be the load of debts, achievements, failures, realtionships... The list is infinite. "Children are happy because thay are nobody and hardly have any load of th past. The older the age, the longer the past and stronger the somebody and the most miserable expression of life happens such as novody nderstands me, mountains of regrets and loneliness in the crowd" _ Swami Anubhavananda.

"I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it" -Pablo Picasso
