Can a few of us make a difference?<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Neha,</B><BR/>Hi sis. All fine. But how come you are not responding to my YM Msgs? Got ma a bit perplexed about it. Hope all is fine with you.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Nerine,</B><BR/>Thank you for those words. I couldn't blame him if he loved that. I'd only have to blame the people who make him that. :)<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Yash,</B><BR/>Thank you. The cat? Hahahaha!<BR/><BR/>Trust me, the suspense is mucha harder on me. All this was so sudden that she certainly needs time to think. Am waiting very eagerly for her response. :)<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Bold,</B><BR/>Agree. Thank you. :)<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Praveen,</B><BR/>Yes, they are. Unbelievable, but true. It is simple, really:<BR/><BR/>Learn some magic, grow a long beard (only for men), wear saffron robes, and set up a "Kuteera" somewhere on the banks of a river. Practice your magic until you become a pro. Get some people to vouch that you are a miracle-worker. You will be rich very soon, and have your share of followers. Then you will be covered by international TV channels and newspapers at no expense.<BR/><BR/>Yes, a pretty decent life, I must agree. :)<BR/><BR/><BR/>Cheers!Pradeep Puranikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616202791619214389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143955077304140062006-04-02T10:47:00.000+05:302006-04-02T10:47:00.000+05:30hey pradeep...good issue out there..i never really...hey pradeep...good issue out there..i never really beleived in all these "magicians"...but thanks to many gullible people out there...they're actually making a very good life out there...Praveen R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13333426404559165980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143891276548517792006-04-01T17:04:00.000+05:302006-04-01T17:04:00.000+05:30Normal healthy, peaceful life is real a miracle.ha...Normal healthy, peaceful life is real a miracle.<BR/><BR/>have a nice day<BR/>cheersRupa (BNB)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00065452057155554566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143869051051310242006-04-01T10:54:00.000+05:302006-04-01T10:54:00.000+05:30and hey!!! wen are u going to let the cat out of t...and hey!!! wen are u going to let the cat out of the bag???<BR/>d suspense is killin us:))teacuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11065262654657659892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143868996876241822006-04-01T10:53:00.000+05:302006-04-01T10:53:00.000+05:30oh pradeep...I soooo agree wid u!!!the human body ...oh pradeep...I soooo agree wid u!!!<BR/><BR/>the human body is THE ultimate genius!!! nothing can beat that!!!nuthing!!! and yes, miracles and all is all fake...skill and a few tricks..nuthing much...i never believed in them anyways:)<BR/><BR/>and no one is gonna curse u!! ur right:)teacuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11065262654657659892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143866712906592982006-04-01T10:15:00.000+05:302006-04-01T10:15:00.000+05:30i can't think of many things to say other than...w...i can't think of many things to say other than...<BR/><BR/>wow.<BR/><BR/>and...<BR/><BR/>eeiiiuuuuuu.<BR/><BR/>pradeep, you are right about david blain. i could see it now. mr. blain the saint prophet. he'd love that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143823155058753332006-03-31T22:09:00.000+05:302006-03-31T22:09:00.000+05:30good post and good thinking brother! :)PS: how r u...good post and good thinking brother! :)<BR/><BR/>PS: how r u doin? and howz life? :)Neha Sinhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06852240355906591822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143813143897771552006-03-31T19:22:00.000+05:302006-03-31T19:22:00.000+05:30Loved the post.

Everything around us is a miracle in its own right. Life is a miracle indeed.<BR/><BR/>All I said is that it is wrong to glorify miracles and to make them the bases of attracting the multitudes to a religion.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Ashley,</B><BR/>A very rational comment. Those who do not see that their own life is a great miracle, get mesmerized and bow to such magical feats.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Keshi,</B><BR/>If David Blaine grew a long beard, wore Saffron robes, and walked the streets of India for a few months performing his bizarre tricks, he could take back at least a few thousand followers.<BR/><BR/>They would frame his photograph in their homes and call him the next Avataar of their God.<BR/><BR/>Please don't get me wrong, I have nothing against that happening. But that would not change the fact that he is just David Blain, a great magician.Pradeep Puranikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616202791619214389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143773683086190842006-03-31T08:24:00.000+05:302006-03-31T08:24:00.000+05:30thats right Pradeep, we ourselves are great miracl...thats right Pradeep, we ourselves are great miracles, well-said!<BR/><BR/><BR/>I think ur talking abt Sai Baba's lingam story...I heard of him doing that ever year during Mahashivarathri...and I also know that he has billions of followers ard the world...what I cant u'stand is that can so many ppl be blind followers if he hasn't got any truth in him?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Keshi.Keshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17147250771662427208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143769177628813352006-03-31T07:09:00.000+05:302006-03-31T07:09:00.000+05:30I admit, I did journey to Puttaparthi to see Sai B...I admit, I did journey to Puttaparthi to see Sai Baba when I was in Andhra Pradesh. I am by NO MEANS a follower. I am very curious about why people believe a variety of things, so while I was nearby I felt <I>compelled</I> by curiosity to see what all of the excitement was about. He is very popular in certain circles in the West. I felt as though I had seen the South Indian version of the Pope. He was a wild-haired, frail old man in saffron clothing. His followers were mesmerized; however.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03625984938283037038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143766771200627632006-03-31T06:29:00.000+05:302006-03-31T06:29:00.000+05:30Through the Law of Attraction, many good things mo...Through the Law of Attraction, many good things move into our lives, apparently unbidden.<BR/><BR/>Miracles do happen, and generally in circumstances when you least expect.<BR/><BR/>look at this commercialization...<BR/>from the eyes of a child<BR/> HE /She would say, <BR/> "I WONDER" ...<BR/>We need to say this several times more than we saying "I think".<BR/>Its the wonder element in miracles which attracts you! <BR/><BR/>Does this post also begin with the word "WOnder"?passerby55https://www.blogger.com/profile/17788718555377390569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023827.post-1143719102067687582006-03-30T17:15:00.000+05:302006-03-30T17:15:00.000+05:30Dear Aiz,Thank you.Dear Amy,Yes, it really happene...<B>Dear Aiz,</B><BR/>Thank you.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><B>Dear Amy,</B><BR/>Yes, it really happened.

Bizarre? That is a very small word, Amy. There are many such "Phenoms" here in India.<BR/><BR/>If I were to mention the name of that man here, people would recognize him immediately.
