“Who gave this fine technique called Meditation to the world?”
This question was asked on Quora, I thought of putting my answer (http://www.quora.com/Ashish-Lal-5) here also as a blog post because this question brings out many important points that modern day people would want to know.

Your best friend is your closest soulmate
I’ve been blessed with many caring and loving friends and relatives. They’re always there whenever u need them and otherwise as well.

Met a dramatic roadside ‘Misri’ Baba 15 minutes back!
15 minutes back while I was walking back home from an audition, a pandit sitting on the road’s pavement in the Sab TV Lane, Andheri West, called me. He said a few things about me (all the generic nonsense) and said that he wanted to have tea. I gave him 10 bucks. Then he made […]

Ever Heard This Before – “I’ve many great story ideas”
One of my acquaintances long time back said – “I’ve an awesome idea for a film, it’ll be a huge blockbuster for sure but people just don’t value real talent. They’re just making crap movies, huh.” He actually narrated me the idea and it was really good. He also described to me a couple of […]
Weather Cribbers
I’ve met several ‘Weather Cribbers’ so to say: – In summer, their main topic of cribbing would be heat and sweat and will wait for rains – In rainy season, it would be water logging, dampness and road blocks and will wait for winter – In winter, it would be about such low temperature, sardi-khansi, […]
