United We Stand, Divided We Fall

AN AMERICAN VISITED INDIA AND WENT BACK TO
AMERICA WHERE HE MET HIS INDIAN FRIEND WHO ASKED HIM
HOW DID U FIND MY COUNTRY?
 THE AMERICAN SAID "IT IS A GREAT COUNTRY WITH SOLID ANCIENT HISTORY
AND IMMENSELY RICH WITH NATURAL RESOURCES".
THE INDIAN FRIEND THEN ASKED, HOW DID U FIND INDIANS ??
AMERICAN SAID "INDIANS?? WHO INDIANS?? I DIDNT FIND OR MET A SINGLE INDIAN THERE IN INDIA".
WHAT NONSENSE?? WHO ELSE COULD U MET IN INDIA
THEN??
THE AMERICAN SAID .." IN KASHMIR I MET A
KASHMIRI, IN PUNJAB A PANJABI IN,BIHAR,MAHARASTRA, RAJASTHAN,
BENGAL,TAMILNADU,KERALA I MET BIHARI, MARATHI,
MARWADI, BENGALI,TAMILIAN,MALAYALI,
THEN I MET A MUSLIM, A HINDU A CHRISTIAN,
A JAIN,A BUDDHIST AND MANY MANY MANY MORE BUT NOT A

THINK HOW SERIOUS IT IS.. THE DAY WOULD NOT BE FAR OFF WHEN INDEED WE WOULD BECOME A COLLECTION OF NATION STATES AS SOME REGIONAL
ANTI-NATIONAL POLITICIANS WANT ...
FIGHT BACK - ALWAYS SAY I AM INDIAN - "JAI HIND - MERA BHARAT MAHAN"

The monkey merchant


Once upon a time in a village, a man announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs 10. The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them..

The man bought thousands at Rs 10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort.

He further announced that he would now buy at Rs20. This renewed the efforts of
the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.

Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to Rs 25 and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it!

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at Rs 50! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on behalf of him.

In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at Rs 35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell it to him for Rs 50."
The villagers squeezed up with all their savings and bought all the monkeys.

Then they never saw the man nor his assistant, only monkeys everywhere!

Welcome to the 'Stock Market' ! :)) =))

Perception.

 There is a story about Swami Vivekananda, the first yogi to come to the U.S. and Europe more than 100 years ago. While he was in Germany, he stayed with a well-known scholar. They happened to be conversing about a book on the table, which the scholar was speaking very highly about, and Vivekananda said, "Give me the book for an hour; let me see what is in it." The scholar felt insulted, "For an hour? What will you know in one hour? I have been reading this book for weeks and I'm not getting anywhere. And above all, it's in German. You don't know German, how will you read it?" Vivekananda said, "Give it to me for one hour."

Vivekananda took the book, placed it between his hands and sat there for an hour. Then he gave back the book and said, "There is nothing worthwhile in this book." The scholar thought this was arrogance. Vivekananda did not even open the book, it was in a language he did not know and he made a judgment about it. So he told Vivekananda, "This is nonsense." Then Vivekananda said, "Ask me anything about the book." The man said, "Okay, what is on page 663?" Vivekananda repeated it verbatim. He couldn't believe it, so he asked, "How is it that you know?" Vivekananda said, "That is why I'm Vivekananda." Viveka means "perception." His birth name is Naren, but his Guru named him Vivekananda because he is of such perception.

How did he arrive at this? Vivekananda is not reading the book; he is reading the one who wrote the book. He is reading the mind of the person who wrote the book itself. That is not intuition; this is a completely different dimension of perception.

Is My Time Up


A middle-aged woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table, she had a near death experience.

Seeing God, she asked "Is my time up?"

God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months, and 8 days to live."

Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a facelift, liposuction, and a tummy tuck. She even had someone come in and change her hair color.

Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.

After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was killed by an ambulance.

Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 40 years? Why didn't you pull me from out of the path of the ambulance?"

God replied, "Sorry, I didn't recognize you!"
