Goa

The Goa trip... all of our batch mates have been to Goa and back...some have even gone twice...
The place has an amazing laid back quality to it...you don't feel like doing anything...just lying on the beach...drinking beer and listening to the surf hit the sand...that's all...and of course lolling in the water later on...
This was the essence of the trip to this pristine place... beaches are the most beautiful that Ive ever seen and the water is clear and inviting.
Holiday bola to Goa hi yaad aata hai yar!

Spirtuality and Lunch

What brings us here and makes us do the many things and chores that we go about doing in our daily lives is a question that haunts many of us even as we go on doing our tasks. And one day bored of it all we take a break and wonder aloud - "What am i here for?"
Whats my calling? ... is what you and i wonder ...
That's the question that one of my friend faces and with whom i had a good hour long discussion, at 2 in the afternoon ... we talked about moksha, awakening the spiritual within us, and life's objectives in the comfortable confines of my air conditioned car.
"How ironic is that???!!" - you would think!
But that's exactly that - A poor man would never understand let alone relate to such talk
He is in dire straits as to where his next meal is going to come from. That person would not even begin to ponder about liefs origin and its ultimate meaning
I guess its best left to us well fed college going pseudo intellectuals to mull over.
By the way we had a hearty meal of a very filling and smacking thali later that day - i enjoyed it and i suggest Mahabhoj to everyone (vain aint i????)
