Enjoyed these jokes much much!

 

i remember watching a Major General who was in the Indian army being

interviewed by a journalist in India. The journalist was addressing the

Major General in all his questions as " Major " ...and " Major you said... " and

" Major why did you.... "

 

The journalist had unceremoniously demoted him four full ranks. The General

of course bore all this with a smile.

 

Many years later i heard someone relate to me an incident when Swami

Ranganathananda Maharaj, the present head of the Ramakrishna Mission, in

one of his trips to the US a devotee asked him a question during question

time and began with the words

" Swami Ranganath... "

 

The future president of the Order did not take this as stoically as the

General.

 

He shot back...

" Why do you deprive me of my Ananda? I am fully entitled to that Bliss "

 

I use that same line when my father calls me Jai rather than JaiRAM...i

plead with him why he deprives me of my RAM?

Not to much effect ...i might add!
