Ya man, these two ANANDINI and 8th wonder are terrible... such negative personalities... 8th wonder is not part of skotak gang i think he is mamashri or WBB...but ANANDINI is definitely partof skotak gang... i dont know how skotak has such worms as followers... if someone praised me to the skies like this and behvaed badly with other popular boarders i would have skinned him... but skotak seems to ignore all his brats.

i also felt like this when i was new but now wherever i go in India they are robbing me, every flyover everything stinks, everybody is fighting for parochial interests so i decied MMB just represents the cosmos that India represents.. i have gotten used..

The vedas say

BE LIKE THE LOTUS WHICH IS UNTOUCHED BY THE MUCK IN THE SWAP AND ADDS BEAUTY TO THE SWAMP

Birdie,

I dont think ANANDINI is a woman.. do u think she is... will a woman ever write this way? All gibberish skotak`s followers write on their home pages.... and thats the reason mod does not give autopublishign rights to skotak coz his followers trouble popular woman a lot... his followers want all women in India to roll chappatis.. thats how ugly they are.

Hey Chiddu was looking so good in suit at the G meet, come back fast so we can discuss things that matter. Why cant all our ministers be dressed this way and speak this way.

Dear Mod and god,

I am not reacting to jokers like ANANDINI, 8th wonder, Accolade, Mamashri, etc.. so what will u give me in return for such restraint?

I want to see a beautiful India....

1. where folks look rich, fresh, neat,

2. Where all palyas, oorus and villages look like english counties

3. Where folks would think its primitive and degrading to the soul to be noisy.

4. Where corrupt politicans cease to exist. All politicians who rule the roost should be as smart as Ramadoss. The likes of Devegowda and Karunandihi or Jaya should vanish from the scene.

Thats what i expect for the self restraint i am maintaining against a pack of jokers most of whom belong to the skotak gang! LOL

All those who practice righteous restraint should seek righteous boons like me.

Happy Guru Parab - Pranky!! :)

Searching for direction in the market?

Time to start buying again!

Searching for direction in the market? This article is for you!

The fall in the Indian Equity Market is due to systemic global risk that is common to entire market and not specific to Indian Market. This has happened due to financial system instability caused or exacerbated by idiosyncratic events or conditions in financial intermediaries elsewhere (read US and Europe). Now that the growth in these developed economies have tappered greatly, the Emerging Markets will feel only ripple effects, which will however be compensated by domestic demand. Therefore, if both developed and emerging markets have fallen propotionately, the emerging markets, with their relatively higher growth rate, should send buy signals much sooner.

Out of these Emerging Markets India has reached the point where one can press BUY button and GO LONG. Now, I will elucidate the reasons. Indian GDP rate “may” fall marginally, but it will still remain the second fastest growing major economy. The dollar rise will make exports competitive once again. The negative effects of dollar rise will be adjusted by the falling crude price. As I mentioned earlier, the fall globally has been initiated by the over ambitious finacial players. The Indian finacial system is one of the most robust in the world. The government and RBI have shown commendable speed and sense of responsibility by taking timely monetary and fiscal measures like CRR cut etc. (If sources are to be believed, more are on cards – something like a mini budget). The pay commisssion and loan waiver will further fuel demand.

I would say, for India, it has been a bear market within a long term bull run (extending till 2040) caused by external factors beyond its control. This is definitely reason for Indian investor to be cheerful and look for buying opportunities, whenever they apear.

I consider that Indian market is at its bottom or very close to it. At this point I would like to bring in a fact which bring out that India is already over sold. We all know that the US market is close to recession. But legendary investor Warren Buffet has called BUY in the US equities. These are some of his famous words which he uttered on 17th october 2008.

No solace in revenge

Posted by : day_trader

In the new Bond film Quantum of Solace, the chief protagonists, Secret Agent 007 and the attractive Camille, shoulder the unbearable burden of revenge even as they emerge physically unscathed from whizzing bullets and hot pursuit.



While Bond looks to avenge the death of Vesper, his ladylove, Camille seeks to mete out justice to the Bolivian general responsible for the violent death of family members.

The underlying theme of vengeance is not entirely new to the plot of a Bond thriller. This, despite Bond-creator Ian Fleming’s only contribution to this story being the title, Quantum of Solace. It is taken from a short story in For Your Eyes Only.

Quantum’s screen narrative includes insights from Bond’s friend Mathis and the sultry Camille. Consider Mathis’s last words to Bond as he lies limp in his arms: “The dead don’t care for vengeance... forgive Vesper, forgive yourself...” or words to that effect. And when the distraught Camille finally avenges the death of family by killing the Bolivian general, she turns to Bond and says: “I want to free you from your prison...”

Does she mean that revenge puts you in a prison of your own making while forgiveness sets you free? Did she want to free Bond of the burden of revenge by helping him kill the person who caused his girlfriend to die? Or does she want to free him by revealing to him the worthless emptiness that engulfs her once violence is returned in full?

It is worth contemplating because even a Bond film can offer many spiritual lessons on troubling subjects such as justice and revenge.

Alexandre Dumas’s story of the Count of Monte Cristo is all about betrayal, obsession and revenge. Set in the Napoleonic era, it revolves around the wronged young Edmond Dantes, who was thrown into the dreaded Chateau d’if for no fault of his own by those who he thought were his friends. He eventually manages to escape, finds a treasure trove, returning as the rich and powerful Count of Monte Cristo who went on to befriend and betray those who had ruined his life. Yet, it is in the final twist – when revenge and fury give way to regret and contrition – that Dumas really creates a masterpiece.

The reader is able to identify closely with all that the troubled protagonist is going through. It is only when Dantes can no longer shoulder the burden of revenge that he feels the need to forgive and move on. That’s when he truly experiences peace – with himself and with the world, having found release from the self-created dungeon of hate and vendetta. He is finally free of the demons that have been haunting him to distraction.


Go back a few million years to the Mahabharata. The underlying theme of the great epic is vengeance. When Draupadi vows to avenge the humiliation
she suffers in the court of Duryodhana, Yudishtira tries to talk her out of it. He enumerates the virtues of forgiveness in the face of all injury because he says, this world and the next belong to the one who forgives unconditionally.


It is a great aspiration and almost every religion and code of spiritual belief preaches the virtues of forgiveness. “Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do,” so prayed Jesus for his tormentors as he was crucified and left to die a painful and slow death. The sentiments of this moving and heartfelt prayer were echoed by Australian Gladys Staines when – with seemingly effortless magnanimity – she chose to forgive those who burnt her missionary husband and two young sons alive.

Anyone who travels India’s highways, particularly in the north of the country, would notice the many interesting, sometimes witty, sayings painted on the back of trucks. One of the most common is the warning: “Buri nazarwale, tera muh kala” or may you, who wish us ill, find your face blackened. But even more inspiring and evolved is the message displayed by some truck drivers: “Buri nazar wale, tera bhi bhalo ho”, or the simple and graceful hope that good may come to all, even those who wish us ill.

An eye for an eye would make the whole world go blind, as Mahatma Gandhi pointed out, even as he relentlessly promoted the practice of ahimsa or non-violence even in the face of utmost provocation. For, as Vidura says in the Mahabharata, “Fire falling on the grassless ground is extinguished of, itself.”

What about capital punishment, the power the state has given itself via the judicial system to take the life of a convicted murderer? Is that not a form of vengeance too and in complete disregard of the timeworn traditional concepts of atonement and forgiveness? Jainism regards forgiveness as a way of expressing compassion and ahimsa. So, too, the Jewish Yom Kippur and the Islamic Ramadan, which are meant specially for believers to atone, repent and forgive.
