THOUGHTS, QUESTIONS & TRIVIA

• To those jails that were once filled by the parents on account of freedom struggle, the children go in; convicted for corrupt deals and crime.

• The quantum of corruption had ballooned exponentially. Bofors scandal was worth just seventy odd crores of Rupees and it cost the person his prime minster-ship. Now it is thousands of crores, and still the PM chair is very much intact.

• One of the most powerful persons of the world is a prisoner to her own security services. Even if the bird is a golden cage, it is nothing but captivity that it undergoes.

• Is leadership a way to amass wealth and power?

• If one nation has really problems of plenty, it is India. Truly it suffers on account of a huge population.

• After a person takes oath in a court to be truthful in his deposition and is found to be guilty later, then why is he not jailed for contempt of court for being untruthful at the first place?

• The crux of every known religion is love and compassion. Then why does religion fight each other?

• If nirvana is liberation from the sensory pleasures and finding the true self/God within, then why do we fanatically go after external Gods/God men for salvation?

• How many crores of Rupees will give you the peace of mind?

• Why do some make rules and regulation for everyone to follow but themselves?

• Who is the culprit that causes your emotions to burst; others or yourself?

• Is it worthy not to act because every action produces equal and opposite reaction?

• When leadership is full of thornes, is followership bed of roses?

• Who will bell the cat? You or your neighbour?

• Are you doing the right thing when you don’t tell someone because it will hurt him?

• Who is most powerful, Jesus Holy Christ or the Pope?

• Countries get rich by selling arms and war goods to others. They progress while humanity kills each other and destroy everything around. Is that what you call progress?!

• What goes around, will it come around? What about that goes to Swiss bank?

• What is true money, the white or black?

• When Buddha was an atheist, why is he called Bhagwan?

• Buddhism teaches Maitri Bhavana and defends it with Karate and Kungfu!

• It is very seldom that we find the words from someone matching with the true meaning of it?

• God is said to be ‘nirguna’, niramaya’ and ‘nirakara’. Then why does God look like human being in our thoughts?

• What is truth and how do we achieve truth?
