Hey Aachi,

Really profound.

I've found myself asking the same Question a couple of times too. I feel it's a kind of an indicator/buzzer that sets off automatically whenever we find ourselves entangled in the web of thoughts ("smaller distractions and temptations" as you rightly said) and feel lost in our journey (aka Life).

In such moments, I try to use this indicator by taking a quick break from my routine, give myself some extra space/time, sit & think about what's really bothering me (if I feel something is) and then its time for a fresh action-plan or a thought-chart so to say.

That's it. Its almost like a routine servicing required by an engine. Our mind (the engine) needs such overhauling too (some people do it every few days/months/years & some can even do it almost on the fly & some simply don't do it).

Just my way though. :)

Would like to read other's thoughts on this one.
:)

dear Aachi,

i always felt i had too many desires and too many goals ..and at the end ..i used to always reach a point where i would question myself :what is it that i want from my life..
one of the things which i truly believe guides me is my gut instinct ..its the inner compass which shows direction ..if only each of us could find the courage to listen to our own inner voice without the worldly distractions ....

Dear Surya,

lovely way of expressing...sending an engine for servicing. it is a very important act to keep the engine running...in the right direction too.

Dear Preethi,

Obviously we are like children who end up in front of an ice cream parlour...we want all icecreams...but really need one.

what is that we want requires a little introspection and that intro comes from asking us...what do we want?

gut insticnt is the most trustable form of answer we can look forward too.

thanks for the share.

lots of love

Good Morning everyone!

Dear Aachi,

"where do I go from here?"

Well, as far as I am concerned, I rarely ask myself that question. I am someone who believes in "go with the flow". Yes, sometimes it can be frustrating, not knowing where you want to go, or what you want from life. But, I trust my heart and my instincts (with you on that one Preethi) for I believe that even if I have taken a 'wrong' decision it will ultimately be for my own good as a lesson that I needed to learn.

So I take life as it comes....

Dear Aachi,

That is such an important question. And I must confess that even at times when this question comes into my mind I am unable to find an answer to it or I am unable to decide and as you have rightly put it 'feel confused'in the web of thoughts.

Surya I am going to try out your servicing approach.

Preethi, so true. I have often ignored my gut feeling, instinct whatever we might call it and realised later that I should have listened to it. We condition our minds so much that we forget that nature has given us the 'instinct' to think with. (Animals on the other hand who are closer to nature solely use their instincts.) We suppress the gut and the instinct and end being caught up in the web.

We need to listen to our instincts more.

Dearest Aachi

I have been trying to figure out what exactly it was in my post which inspired this article but am at a dead end:-) Anyway that is so irrelevant (just as elbow licking is:) because what I really want to say is that Bravo for this piece. It's an eternally central question to ask. Kithe jaavan aithon? I guess when there is a larger goal in one's mind then this question becomes merely technical in nature. However if we lack a central goal in our lives then it is the only question worth focusing on.

Have I confused the issue?

lots of love

Dear Buddy

Another powerful whammy and in my language too(BTW perfectly correct I might add!). Hmm as I often notice about your posts here, they come at the right moment(for me)with the right message almost like you are the Cosmic mistral heading our Divine Committee. :-)

To clarify, just yesterday spent an entire day figuring out where to steer Ifsha, the blog, how, what is needed what is relevant etc. So there you go.

Generally speaking I feel this voice always enters as a clarion call of caution from our 'infinite potential'. Course correction, if you will, to remind us that actually for the longest time life is only about cross-roads and one needs to be aware and choose with as much clarity as is possible that each choice will ensure a particular outcome.

Separating temptations/wilful desires/self-destructive instincts from the 'high road' we all carry coded within us, must be the prupose of this eternal question. And today I also realize it must be the call to remind us over and over again what a piceless gift life is and that only our life choices will make it so.

Thank you fair friend

Achi just 40 minutes after Jasjit:)[computer clocks]
tchhhh

I have to second her thoughts, for me too your posts come just in that nick of time.I think it must be some ESP sort of thing:)

I have been pondering on this question (Kithe Jaavan Aithon...by the punjabi is just fine)now for 2 years, the engine has been worn out by the overhauling, but the good part, for me, has been the distractions have come in various forms and i have just gone along, mostly, happily through the process.

Hi All

Many of the comments refer here to 'heart/gut instinct and flow' as signposts of where to head.
I wonder if there is any way of knowing what we term the heart, instinct and flow really comprise a deeper truth or could be the melee of confused/unmet needs impersonating as true desire?

Madhavi uses a word 'distraction' which set me off thinking and I wanted to share this Zen quote which maybe of relevance.

"One the whole people suffer from two kind of problems :oblivion and distraction. Distraction means that the spirit is racing and oblivion means the spirit is unclear. Distraction is easy to cure, oblivion is hard to heal. Using the metaphor of illness, one that involves a pain or itch can be medicated but oblivion is a symptom of paralysis, where there is no feeling. A distracted mind can be set in order by focus but oblivion is unformed darkness, in contrast to distraction which at least has some direction."

Kithey Jaanvan Aitho must be a very muffled self in the oblivion of seeking succour through people/relationships/ambition/money and instant gratification. The untended low self-esteem which seeks 'completion' through all these must not even be visible as is often the case.

Distraction on the other hand must be the single greatest energy waster to chew up the question everytime it tries to help us search for our road.

Just some thoughts

I am new here..... or should i say a silent observor from sometime..

I was wondering, if only Arjun knew, where he was to go, Geeta wouldn't have happened.

chill guys, just enjoy the journey...I've noticed everyone on this blog seems to be pretty much enjoying their journey

Why to know where to go
Just know the goal or read Jasjit's piece on ganga to know it & flow fearlessly.

Cheers

Naina

Naina

that was really funny and very accurate as far as the Gita was concerned. Here's to the flip happy side of kithay jaavan aithon:)

Dear Naina,

Welcome to the blog! Good to know that you have been a part of this blog for sometime now and even happier to know that you chose to participate this time :-)

Totally agree with you there!

Cheers!

hi aachi, was really wondering when you will ask this question? and i knew you will ask it, have to ask it in one of these days/months/years.

remember, in one of my emails i asked you your age? you must have wondered why i asked it. i asked it to know when you will ask this question and then of course find an answer and be quite an other man at least for a few decades. yet more intriguing? let us see...

was drawn as much by your question as by the very good punjabi in which it was written.

hi anusheh, jasjit and all others!

Dear Harb

Hello. Good to see you. Aachi your Punjabi has brought old friends back:)

Hello Harb

Good to hear from you again. let's share some punjabi while you are here. Just lines of Bulleh I think from somewhere- 'Kithon aaye kithey jaana, kyon ey rog lagaye nein.' were a great comfort to me once along the road.

:-)

Hi all,

Dear Shubhosree,

At one time too I had the same philosophy of life. But as time passes on, and life is becoming more complex I begin to wonder where am I going? and where do I want to be.

Dear Naina,

welcome to the blog. :) If Arjuna knew....nice perspective....isnt it the very fact that he wanted to know that geetha was born?

Dear Anusheh,

I felt inspired by the story of the two women who KNEW where they wanted to be, irrespective of societal persecutions. I asked myself if I was as passionate about something in life as they were about their love. that is when I thought...what do I want in life?...riches? fame? a nice family? ...I dont know...

Dear Buddy,

:)... I think we are all connected in the thought plane.

Dear Madhavi,

:) I am glad.

Dear Chaitali,

I wonder what propels the gut feeling?

Dear Harb,

:)...its wonderful to see you back. I feel you are able to deduce more of my thoughts than what I understand myself. thanks for the input. well lets see....:)

anusheh, it is not really totally aachi's punjabi which brought me here but your post at intent. it in some way so touched me. i felt the same way even before you when someone (who to me speaks like a parrot lol)tried to lessen the piognancy of your post by frivilous remarks. though i dont feel like writing much, feel dont have anything to say, yet felt like coming here and show my presence just to say that i am as friends with you as ever. on coming here i saw aachi's post and it became further point of attraction for me.

jasjit, bulle shah's words remind me of a book "Menu samajh sataya" by some writer whose name i have forgotten.

anyway, while on punjabi, i am these days enjoying teaching punjabi to one of my online friends from the west. and teaching it becomes quite hilarious sometimes.

btw, do you know of any english-punjabi and punjabi-english dictionary in which punjabi script is written in roman script? i am not sure if such a dictionary exists but my friend wants that.

thanks both of you for the nice welcome.

harb

Hello everyone! A very Good Morning :-)

Dear Aachi,

Thats true. At times life compels us to sit back and think, where are we headed? The self introspection is imperative from time to time. But I feel the self introspection is more about what makes you happy and then the clarity about where are we headed just happens ...

Just my take :-)

Good Morning Harb

Teaching a language can be so much fun because I find it actually makes you re-discover it all over again, since so much of our learning in childhood was just instinctive. I have called a publisher here to find out abut a Punjabi-Enlish dictionary in the Roman script I'm sure they exist. If I find it shall I buy it send it to you or will you be able to find it there?

Love

Dear Harb

Thank you for being there and here:) Parrots I guess serve some purpose too lol. All in all a very learning experience, especially when one is beyond feeling either flattered or dejected by others comments. Thank God for that!

love

hello jasjit, thank you. as of now i am at patiala. just tell me if such a dictionary exists and the name of its publisher. i will try to find it here. if it is not found then i will let you know...

today is my granddaughter's second birthday. just enjoy what my western friend wrote to me in punjabi:

subh janamdin tikar tuhadi dohtari...

now i am going to explain to her the difference between dohtari and potri (she picked these words up from some online punjabi teaching site.)

hi anusheh and aachi...may write something more later...just now i am going to bring the cake lol.

aachi, just to add, many times when i read your question an answer automatically probably in lighter vein comes up from within me: dilli aaja! lol.

Aachi

If Harb says Dilli Aaja as in come visit us It sounds like a great answer. Maybe then we can all have a heart-to-heart on Kithey Jaiyee aithon. And who knows what that may yield!
:-)

Harb
A joyous birthday greeting to your little angel and a big hug for her. Today is Chaitali's birthday too so it's a birthday day on the blog. It's a a special number day for there are two 8s in it (double power of transformation) and the total is a number 7 -special divine energy blessings.

I'm locating a publisher in Amritsar who is also kind enough to mail books. I should be able to speak to him tonight and will send you his number.

Hey Chaitali,

Wish you a very happy b'day.

So u r an Arien.

Our zodiac signs depend on when our mothers concieve us, right.....Thinking of which I've a question

Can v "arrange" for a good future for our child, based on astrology?

....if v wish to know "where to go"....will v not want to go in the best possible direction ?? Or design the best possible direction for our child ??

I think I was better off "silent"...this is addictive...-:)

Cheers

Wish you a happening year ahead Chaitali.

Hi Naina

It is addictive, isn't it:) Just some thoughts on what you said.

Is there really any ideal star sign? Each one brings its own challenges. And then again even if you have the brightest and the best what about life's challenges which are unique to each one of us and end up shaping who we are the most perhaps? Sorry I actually just ended up asking you some questions:)

A very happy birthday to little Harb:) and to Prasun. May the year ahead bring light, love and joy. And Chaitali we have of course wished already but just for prosperity, Happy Birthday Chaitali....may it be a year filled with wonder, lightness and new discoveries.

Well the way we wish to design ourselves or our child is very relative as it depends on our vicinity, the situations that we have confronted, time & again...

For example, Tarzan won't design his child to run computers & blog like us no matter what sun sign he might belong to...:-) So how we choose to design our child is related to what we have experienced in our lives.

But no matter how much we plan things..we become as what we choose to & with whatever we use & misuse that life gives us..
As u said that the life's challenges make us truly what we are....

So the only designing we can do is to design ourselves such that we are as discerning as scorpions, as free as aquarians, as sturdy as taureans, as meticulous as ariens, as charming as virgos, as strong as leos...and whatever best each sunsign holds...

But When we observe all of this in us, we take a leap (because then we ask "kithey jaawan aithon") to be beyond all this to radiate the colourless self via the prism called life so to exhibit our true self.

I feel that we & the zodiac signs function like a solar system. Its the sun which is forever radiating & these planets have an identity in its light. Similarly, we being the sun give an identity to these planets & yet prefer to be labelled under their banner as an arien, aquarian...so on..

Well Chaitali, I just wish you an undesigned yet wonderful discovery in this year which'll brighten up your path on the eternal journey such that in that light u'll flow fearlessly & accquire traits that every other sign offers...such that u know where to go after all that because there is so much more....

Anusheh, I hope I make absolutely no sense with this so that you aren't motivated to reply. Silence was nice.
Don't pull me in this entropy dude.

Hi naina

Will attempt to answer your question. According to Indian astrological wisdom firstly the mother's astrological arrangement(of planets ruling her karma/life) are the greatest influence (and closest to the child's configuration especially at the time of birth). This is why between the ages of 28-32 (called the rings of Saturn)all humans experience a tumultous time of 'change' since the planets again become closest to what they were at the time of birth i'e when our karmic blueprint for this life got created.

In essence this is the time also of great potential for transformation for those very challenges come before us which are our life's karmic blocks. Unconscious of this, most people just experience it as a time of trauma and fail to take heed of how courage/wisdom/clarity and inner strength if garnered effectively, can lead us to making a quantum leap. This is also the period called the Great Death if we let the transformation happen.

Therefore Indian astrology underscores the power of influence of the 'mother' over our lives tremendously. The 'umblical cord' is metphoric of the karmic bondage which has tied us back to being reborn. The mother has to therefore reflect the same bondage since she literaaly and metaphorically is instrumental in your formation back into human form. Breaking away from her karmic patterns(hence her umbilical cord) is what 'Rings of Saturn' bring to us. Now this brings a new side to your question. Since most mothers burden us with their karmic baggage at birth (just the way karmic cycles are designed) where is the question of them choosing our 'best' astrological interest. We further the problem by being hoplessly entwined in their patterns, deformed by their unresolved selves and told to deify them by all and sundry.

For any mother to choose therefore the best life for her offspring she can ONLY begin by undoing her karmic residue, healing it consciously before impregnation and by doing so ensures her womb (read nurturing self) is equipped to invite a higher consciousness. For that is what in effect happens. The soul that enters (which does not BTW happen at conception) the womb chooses the mother knowing how her 'baggage' will ensure his/her karmic struggle and place before them the oppurtunity to 'transcend' and evolve in a particular birth. Unfortunately after birth the 'awareness' gets buried deep within us and we begin to struggle/emulate/bemoan the 'difficulties' which lie before us due to the life we choose.

SO frankly your question just raises the most critical short cut to transforming your being. If you look deep within at the distortions transferred by your mother (nature of her love/indifference/anger/insecurities/apathy/manipulation/ego/desires etc)and work towards transforming them, the karmic cycle gets CUT.

So to surmise my rather verbose answer. A mother's best gift to her offspring is to tread the path of consciousness herself, chop at her karmic challenges, transcend them. And she will ensure a womb which is light, free, truly nuurturing and ideal for a wonderful soul to visit her life. :-)

Sorry Naina

Your request to be safe of the entropy came a little too late. i had already posted. It must have been written in your stars. :-)

Here's wishing Chaitali, Prasun and Harb's grand daughter a fabulous birthday! May the year be full of love and joy for all of you :-)

I am missing out on a lot of cake ... Chaitali are you listening? :-D

Jasjit,

Quite a reply...But i am very confused. I swear I'll go into my "comfortably numb" zone as soon i get this new load off my head.

If its the karmic baggage that a mother passes on, as you explained, are you suggesting that other than our own samskaras from our previous janmas, we are also dealing with her distortions???

Or are you suggesting that our samskaras matched the best with our mother & hence we chose that particular womb ??

So, in a way, my initial question of us having a capacity to design our child's life becomes irrelevant because without us knowing, the soul we are giving birth to is choosing us.

Also, what role does the male play if its only the female parent's karmic baggage we are carrying ??

So what you are also suggesting is, that an offspring, grows up to have impressions of its parents or just becomes a true reflection of there's & looses its own "self" & radiates there distortions through out his life.

So each one of us, as a child & "to be" parents need to clear off the load. The earlier, the better...huh??

Dear Naina

As long as you continue to threaten to go back into your 'numb zone' we can comfortably keep wrting long, intense posts to you. :-). From your words you don't sound like one who suffers from self-inflicted 'numbness', so what's this really about eh???

To respond to your questions. Have you heard that many Enlightened beings Buddha and Jesus to name two, have a confounding/controversial piece of advise- kill your parents. Now non-violent as exalted beings are what could they have possibly meant? Precisely that the road to discovering the Self/cleansing karmic baggage is to PURGE all the selves/identities created by them. ANd in doing so do you truly not only free yourself, but free your self of them (for otherwise we spend a lifetimes (read my post on sexual cycles of karma)) of reacting/responding to that basic twin stereotype of the world and and hence all intimate spaces just, means them all over again. Which is the answer to your : "So what you are also suggesting is, that an offspring, grows up to have impressions of its parents or just becomes a true reflection of there's & looses its own "self" & radiates there distortions through out his life."

BTW once purged, you truly learn to love them and offer them the gratitude of what you owe them for their caring too. Before that its only a struggle of guilt/anger/neediness which makes up the play of our interaction with mum & dad.

Now this is a subtle point. Our Samsakaras as you call them and our mother's distortions reflect each other. that is how/why we choose. At another stage when we finally understand what it means that the entire world is an illusion and mirrors all that we are- this fact becomes totally clear.

So then 'choice' needs to be understood in this context. The soul chooses you because you reflect what it needs (both the light & dark) and the child is also the karma you are attracting to push you further to recognize your challenge. That is also the 'gift' of your child to you, to act as your mirror. Seen in the perspective of indivsibility one realizes that life is indeed perfectly orderly, benevolent and infinitely gracious to our highest potential. Our own blindness, self-inflicted ignorance and ego are the only real demons.

Finally what do mum and dad really mean? Dad brings the challenges to our Yang/masculine side, fashions/pushes the requisite karmic buttons for that (broadly speaking because we also pick Yin and Yang sides from each of them further). Mum rules over the deeper/subtler Yin selves. She is the one yielding greater power (karmically) because the Yin is the principle of cosmic wisdom.The Yin (within us) has to connect powerfully/subtly/esoterically to the Great Self and we make a quantum leap to merge with the Cosmic self- beyond Yin/Yang. Hence she (mother) influences our planets as an indication, nurtures us, becomes the source of how we receive and translate the cosmic emotion called Love. That itself says all.

Hope this will sustain your coma for a while. :-)

sorry if it is too long...

Q: How many Arians does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Just the one. You want to make something of it, eh?
A2: None: Arians aren't afraid of the dark.
A3: Only one Arian, but an awful lot of light bulbs. (*smash*)

Q: How many Taureans does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: One. But only if they can celebrate afterwards with a ten course meal and some great sex.
A2: None: Taureans don't like to change anything.
A3: One, but just *try* to convince them that the burnt out bulb is useless and should be thrown away.

Q: How many Geminis does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Two. Plus a portable phone, an Internet link and a copy of the "Bluffer's Guide to Changing Lightbulbs."
A2: Two (of course) but it will take all week and when they're done the light bulb will do your homework, speak French and shine any colour you want from it.
A3: Two, but the job never gets done --- they just keep arguing about who is supposed to do it and how it's supposed to be done!

Q: How many Cancerians does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Just one. But it takes a therapist three years to help them through the grief process.
A2: Just one, and they'll use a non-disposable diaper too!
A3: None: A Cancerian would worry herself to death with the problem.

Q: How many Leos does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Leos don't change lightbulbs, although sometimes their agent will get a Virgo in to do the job for them while they're out.
A2: One: He holds the bulb, and the world spins around him.
A3: None: A Leo would order somebody else to change it.
A4: None: Leos are so enthusiastic they carry their own light.

Q: How many Virgos does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Virgos don't have time to change their own lightbulbs. They're too busy changing them for everyone else.
A2: Approximately 1.000000 with an error of +/- 1 millionth.
A3: Let's see: One to spot the bulb, one to record the time the bulb burned out and the date it was bought, one to decide who's fault it is the bulb burned out and ask why that brand was chosen in the first place, ten to decide to remodel the house as long as they're changing the bulb ...

Q: How many Librans does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Er, two. Or maybe one. No --- on second thoughts, make that two. Is that okay with you?
A2: Why change the bulb? Isn't it more romantic in the dark?
A3: Well gee, I don't know really. I guess it depends on the bulb and where it burned out. It might perhaps take just one if it's just an ordinary bulb, but maybe two if the person doesn't know where to find a new light bulb, or perhaps ...

Q: How many Scorpios does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: None --- they'd rather sit in the dark.
A2: So who wants to know? Why do *you* want to know? Are you a cop?
A3: That information is strictly secret and shared only with the Enlightened Ones in the Star Chamber of the Ancient Hierarchical Order.

Q: How many Sagittarians does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Look, ask me when I get back from India, okay?
A2: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out light bulb?
A3: A whole bunch: I can only keep them in the room long enough for them to give the bulb a quarter turn apiece.

Q: How many Capricorns does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: None. Capricorns can't afford new lightbulbs --- unless they're a legitimate business expense.
A2: I don't waste my time with these childish jokes.
A3: None: Why should I bother? It's probably just going to burn out again tomorrow anyway.

Q: How many Aquarians does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Well, you have to remember that everything is energy so...
A2: A hundred, but they'll all be competing to be the one to change the bulb and bring light to the world.
A3: Like, why don't you just get out of my face and stop asking me to do all your work for you? I'm, like, really totally sick and tired of you asking me questions.

Q: How many Pisceans does it take to change a lightbulb?
A1: Lightbulb? What lightbulb?
A2: Huh? The light's out?
A3: None: only the inner light matters.

Ramlath that was hilarious...thanks.

Too good Ramlath!!! :-D

Thanks for that hands-on Zodiac Ramlath

Sez it all! Hilarious.

love

Hey Aachi pal,

amazing thought..."Kithe Jaavan Aithon"

What immediately came to my mind on reading this was...
"ki likhkhya main ??" (what do i write ?)

Thinking :-)

Dear Harb, Jajit,

Dilli ki maza sardi mein hain...will try to come this winter.

I just love the night beauty of dilli...the orange street lights and the smog (!).

It is bad environmentally but the haze is so beautiful.

well this is one time where I think I can answer winter mein kithe jaavaan...

ans: probably dilli.:)

buddy that should have been 'jasjit'

oops. :)

happy birthday chaitali! so you are my granddaughter's birthday mate lol.

hi aachi, we usually ask kithe javan in winter but then begin looking up north beyond dilli...like kulu manali, dehradun masoori, hemkunt and so on...have you been to those places?

thank you jasjit, anusheh, subhosree for great wishes for my gd. thanks kaskit again for trying to locate the dictionary, i shall be waiting for any information.

harb

Happy birthday chaitali :)

lol, jasjit i never knew you were also called kaskit ....in some previous birth perhaps?? (lol, just touched at k instead of j but then never looked at the typed word, sorry had just completed my journey back home from patiala.)

Thanks everyone for the B'day wishes! I was catching up on what's been happening on the blog but was unable to go through all the comments because "Ki kara paanji, khatam hi nahin honda!"

Harb belated B'day wishes to the little one. Prasun wish you a very happy b'day from one fellow arien to another :)

I will be back after I read through all the comments bloggers.

Jasjit...
I appreciate your command over English. But english is basically a medium of communication and nothing beyond that.

It will be great if you can summarize your reply. I understood Naina's question. But I was not able to comprehend your answer. People who know most - rarely use Jargons. Karmic, Cosmic etc are jargons to me.

PS: Just for the humour sake - If your answers were aired on DD and Karmic, Cosmic etc were beeped out, we would hear ..BEEP BEEP>>>> :)

Just to add onto my comments.

In a book by Stephen Hawkings titled Brief History of Time - Mankind built up a super computer to answer any question posted to it. It had all the intelligence from world in terms of philosphy, psychology etc. and super duper computing power.

A question was posed to that super computer - "What is Life". Super computer verified the question asked and then went into silence. (This was its method of thinking)

1 year passed ... 5 years passed .. 50 years passed... People asked their next generation to wait for the reply .. 100 years passed... so this happened over some generations and then one fine day after 250 years suddenly computer came back to life. He said that he has found an answer to the question "what is life".

Whole world was awaiting the reply. The screen flashed the answer and it was "42"

Well I guess you will agree with me that answers to these questions should be simple as life is simple.

(Of course .. it might not be as simple as 42 :))

Dear Hmmm/Beep Beep

Thank you for visiting our blog and for making me smile first thing in the morning. Its always good to have someone come up and remind you that your thoughts/words are meaningless. Since you are one who appreciates/understands simplicity it will be a pleasure to learn it anew from you.

:-)

Ramlath the zodiac descriptions were very accurate :)

Naina and Jasjit I am going to read the dialogue between the two of you once again carefully. It's very interesting.

Hey Aachi looking forward to your visit to Delhi!

And Surya Bondhu where are you? Have you gone for one of your servicing trips :)
