and amunitions, some nations do not let the clouds of war disperse from the
world.
If pilgrimages were so sacred then why do thousands of pilgrims become victims

jealousy, partiality, selfishness and stubbornness.
There is a deep connection between mind and body. If the acid level rises in

your miseries will disappear at that very moment.
Are we Hindu and Indian? Christian and American?... Or a unique human being
born on this earth? The choice that you make here will decide the path of your
life.

your 'ego'. Ego, the one who is doing the things, and witness, the one who is
watching all that happens.
How profound is your religious depth can be assessed from the number of
assurances and blessings you still need for your life.
