Felt Like Writing in Hindi

अर्थ, काम, देह सब नश्वर है|
रूह को छूने वाला ही इश्वर है||
वो अतुल है, पावन है, वो पृथक है|
उसका मर्म, उसका ही जीवन सार्थक है||

पृथ्वी और अम्बर का अजब नाता है|
रूह की गहरायी शायद दर्शाता है||
आत्म का अस्तित्व तू ही है|
खुशी, चंचलता, हर्ष रूही है||

तेरा हर लफ्ज़ ज़िन्दगी के नए मायने सिखाता है|
करुणामयी पलकों को जैसे प्रेम से सहलाता है||
सरलता, सुमति, सौंदर्य का तू संगम है|
माया से मुक्त, तू ही खुशी, तू ही ग़म है||

Mohanlal Sons
Finest Menswear
Now at DLF City Centre Gurgaon
HURRY!

Now, all that being good, the point worth considering is that it could be read as Mens-wear or as Men-swear. Not that one would tempt the men more than another, but if the finest men swear and they happen to be all Mohanlal's sons, shouldn't the rest of us stop worrying about grooming our children?

The Religion of Science

This piece of news had me hooked.

Makes one wonder how different Science and Religion are, or if Science is turning into yet another religion, not in terms of faith, but blind faith.

This statement in particular was very revealing: "I brought my baby to touch the wall, so that the power of Darwin can purify her genetic makeup of undesirable inherited traits," said Darlene Freiberg, one among a growing crowd assembled here to see the mysterious stain.

I wonder. I thought Science was the answer to the 'miracles' that took place in the mystical world.

I'm back!

Well, okay, the hiatus continued a tad longer than I'd expected - couple of unplanned trips and some work. I'll try and be more regular now and come up with more innovative posts that'll keep you hooked.

Later, then. Everyone.
