The last'est' time that I will talk about my rejection at JNU...

So while the Americans continue to save the world for us...here's an interesting development that might have had some karmic connection with my life...

remember the comet that NASA blasted to smithereens so that they could configure some more elements of the universe...ironically they have left a much Deep'er' Impact than they thought on human life...

at least a Russian astrologer thinks so...she is planning to sue NASA coz she believes that the latter have interefered with her cosmic balance and changed her horoscope by making a celestial body disappear...

in simple Mumbaiyya lingo she is asking, " kya boss? baap ka raaj hai kya? NASA matlab kisi ko bhi udayega kya?"

i am thinking...maybe...just maybe...this comet that NASA blasted could have been the key element in my fate that could have got me a seat at JNU...now with that gone...obviously the trajectory of my future has also undegone a change...

so i am also thinking...i can't change my fate...might as well join the Russian freak...at least i might stand to make some good money!!

moving on and forward...

“There is but one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide.Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering thefundamental question of philosophy. All the rest – whether or not theworld has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelvecategories – comes afterwards. These are games; one must first answer[the questions of suicide].”

- Albert Camus in The Myth of Sisyphus..

In Turkey..one fine day...some hundred odd sheep decided to jump off a cliff and end their lives...shepherds say this was most bizarre...suddenly when their herds were grazing..one sheep went charging towards the end of the cliff and just jumped off...and almost immediately..several others just decided to play Follow the Leader!!

I am thinking... the developed world is really developed...at least in terms of the kind of disorders that they suffer from...it is said that as a naiton develops the kind of ailments that affects its people also changes..from lower order diseases such as cholera, typhoid, malaria, etc...people graduate on to Psycho-somatic disorders such as Shopping Stress (was discussed at length on Oprah's) and other such fancy ailments...so now lower order creatures start jumping off cliffs for no apparent reason...sheep with existential angst is more than what this world can handle...my 90 year old granny would just blame it on the peaking effect of Kalyug!
