An ideal life is like a blog post.
Not necessarily long.
Profound to that person.
Senseless to most others.

A friend at the RTI camp wondered what we would ask if we were to file an RTI petition to God. Here’s what I thought of.

1. Are you there?
2. What is time? Do you feel it?
3. Does anything matter?
4. Please provide a graph of average human happiness index vs time (the time axis being on a scale of 1 day)

What would you ask?

Lebanon

Kandhal aanaalum thaimadipol oru suhamvaruma, varuma?

Sorgam endralum sontha oorpol suhanthiram varuma, varuma?

Kan pirantha thesam inge, kan moodum desam yenge?

Life is the ultimate reality check.

Another conversation

Him: **** (eV’s note: I don’t remember the statement)
Me: That is not true. What evidence do you have to prove it?
Him: India won independence in 1947. Show me the evidence you have to prove that.
Me: * A strong aha feeling *

There is no truth.

P.S: The conversation went on thus…

Me: I am going to blog about how what you just said matches with the philosophy that there is no truth.
Him: *@#$@#

Me: nice try i'm gonna stay up that late watching 22 ppl fighting for 1 ball :P
Him: Thats the beauty of soccer, dude! :-) It's much better than staying up late and checking out Kim and his puppets' grand scheme for nuking the world.

There is an ever-widening chasm between the real and the possibility of escape from isolation! And the self, which is pulled apart and stretched tight in between the two like a carcass in the jaws of fighting wild dogs, lives in pain – in longing! See… see – oh, this is so frustrating! Longing is… longing is… is where the two illusions – the senses and the dream – meet, it is where they recognize themselves in difference from the other! And the self, possessed and deluded in turns by both but belonging to neither, lives in the purgatory of the living – in longing!”

The Long Reverie of Partha Sarma by C. Sriram.

Avan naaldhorum poaraadinaan.
Yaen endru theriyaamal.
Thideer nyaanam vanthathu.
Kaaranam therinthathum, poaraatathai kaivittaan.
Thookam avanai kaivittathu.

Hmm...

According to Election Commission records:

1. On the day the Union election results were announced in 2004, a trust run by the Birla group donated Rs. 1000 Lakhs to Congress(I).

2. Reliance did not donate a paisa to Congress(I) or BJP in 2004.
