HARE RAMA KRISHNA

Dear Subhash!

 

Don't get dissapointed with the silence of the gurus. Sometimes this very

" Silence " becomes a great teacher. This gives an opportunity to introspect

more rather than getting the answer directly from someone else. Believe

me, if you have pondered over the questions again and again, you might

have got many things clear. This might not happen if you get the answer

from someone else.

 

 

I don't know who is your designated guru, there must be someone, otherwise

you woudn't have been here in this list.

 

 

If you are not sure, I ask the list to clarify the same. Gurus please

reply to this mail.

 

 

Please ponder over the questions you asked, and try to answer them, don't

worry if they go wary or quite off the mark. Attempting is always better

than non attempting.

 

 

Your answers are very short. Think a bit more and try to answer them in

somewhat in more details. There is nothing so called correct or wrong

answer. What matters is how you think on these issues.

 

All the best!

 

Sarajit
