Cappie bro :-)
how r the things with ya? Long tyaam no Si..
seems u r pretty much occupied these days, ya kinda same with me..just started school and uuffff assignments and those never ending lectures....
Abt that book 'JANGA BAHADUR' ya bro, it was a wonderful read. Not actually it touched my heart, soul n mind but it was one of the memorable books. After going through this book I came to know many things about history of Nepal and immediately read 2 other books to follow (Seto Bagh n Basanti). This book is somehow fabricated (so writer calls it novel) and it mainly deals with Rana regime focusing on the one 'Junga Bahadur'. Its a quite handy book written by Shree Krishna Shrestha.

Mohan B,
Ya this book 'Glimpses of Golden childhood' perhaps is the most influential bulky book Ive ever read so far. More than that I enjoy every word and sentence. Its about extraordinary childhood of Osho, its exciting, interesting, spiritual, funny and worth read once in lifetime. Every single sentece is beautifuly well crafted.
just for example, I am typing the text directly from book. Right now, I am holding the bulky book and typing straight from there. For your sake :-)
'It is a beautiful morning. Again and again the sun rises and it is always new. It never grows old. Scientists say it is milllions of years old. Nonsense! Everyday I see it. It is always new. Nothing is old. But scientists are grave-diggers, thats why I say they look so grave, serious. This morning, again the miracle of existene. Each moment it is happening, but only very few, very very few ever encounter it'
The word 'encounter' is really beautiful. To encounter the moment as it is, to see it as it is, without adding, without deleting without any editorial work- just to see it as it is, like a mirro... The mirror does not edit, thank God; otherwise no face in the world wold be able to fit its requirements, not even the face of Cleopatra.
