There is a funny story I heard which explains a lot about different perspectives, even on something that we take so much for granted.

Long ago, there was a king in England who had never seen or played Football.

For his birthday, somebody organised a football match with the best players from across the country.

The king sat through the match. With every minute of the match, his eyes started filling with tears. The match ended in a draw, one all. The king stood up. He said, with tear filled eyes and tremour in his voice, “My dear fellow contrymen and women, I did not know our country had so much poverty. The poverty is very clearly illustrated by the fact that some 20 odd players were chasing the one solitary ball and they did not even have a ball to play on their own. I promise you that I will eradicate this poverty”.

The spectators and the public were dumbstruck.

It all depends on the perspective.

The society typically frowns when we hear news of older women marrying younger men. But, there is no harm in it as long as both the parties have a liking for each other. But, how does one gt to know about younger men and if slightly older women would like to date them, where to find them?
Here is where the cougars comes in. The cougars.net site enables older women to date younger men.

We all want progress. But the key question to ask is whether the progress is a sustainable one. If decades of growth gets undone in one moment, is it progress? If a natural disaster strikes, and there is a great calamity, it is understandable. We can hardly do anything about it. But, if the disaster is a man made one, then that is where the pains start.

Also, progress must be inclusive. It should include all the people. If it includes some but excludes others, then also it is not a good progress. Because, it would lead to divisive feelings in the nation or in the world at large and that is going to result in some tension and war somewhere down the line.

When people talk of progress, we need to ensure that it is sustainable and is an inclusive one.

You get a call in the middle of your business hours. You don’t know who called. You don’t want to call back without knowing whether the call was genuine and who it was that called you.

You get a call in the middle of the night. The call was there for some time but by the time you reached for the phone, the call had stopped. You would like to know who would have called at that unholy hour.

A call comes and stops. It then comes and stops. The moment you take the call, it laughs and stops. You would like to make a complaint but you are also worried that your friends may be playing some pranks with you.

But how does one get to know who is calling?

There is a facility. National Phone Listing helps you find out who is it who just called. When all you have is just the phone number, all you need to do also is just to enter that number into a box provided in the page. It gives you all key information. It tells you whether it is a land line or a cell phone. It tells you where the call came from. It even gives you the name and address of the owner of the phone. Now, you have the complete information on the call. You can now decide what to do.

One of the most important Hindu Epic is mahabharata. It can be taken as being opposite of the other epic, Ramayana. In Ramayana, the brothers are united and they fight a demon. In Mahabharata, the cousin brothers are not united. In fact, they hate each other so much so that the gauravas get destroyed by the pandavas in one mighty war.

It has many lessons for us. Why it is wrong for us to be jealous of others; why it is wrong to hate each other; why it is important to care for others and so on and so forth are explained beautifully through stories.

One of the avid readers of my blog the other day asked me innocently, “Hi. What you write is pretty interesting. But tell me, what is the meaning of your blog?”

I was slightly taken aback. What he basically told me within the lines was that he did not know what the word “erudition” meant.

I was wondering why I was not completely surprised. We all are very happy to live with some basic vocabulary. We don’t really want to learn many words. “What for? I am not going to go for the spelling bee contest” is the typical refrain I hear.

But, knowing many words is not just about competing in the spelling bee contest. It is about loving and knowing words so that one can expres better.

Well. Erudition means well learned. Erudite means a person who is well learned. Peak of erudition means somebody who is so very well learned.
