    Saw you got yourself a copy of Indian Philosophy, let me know what you think. That is about fifth on my list, but I might switch around. Just finished the short intro to Heidegger.

    Thanks Debasis, I need to keep updating it, I seem to be buying more books than I can read anymore, not the worst vice.

    1st year students of MBBS were attending their 1st anatomy class.
    They all gathered around the surgery table with a real dead dog.
    The Professor started class by telling two important qualities as a Doctor.
    The 1st is that NEVER BE DISGUSTED FOR ANYTHING ABOUT BODY,
    e.g. He inserted his finger in dog's mouth & on drawing back tasted it in his own mouth.

    Then he said them to do the same.
    The students hesitated for several minutes.
    But eventually everyone inserted their fingers in dog's mouth & then tasted it.

    When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said:
    The most important 2nd quality is OBSERVATION, I inserted my Middle finger but tasted the Index finger.
    Now learn to pay attention.

    Randy D says

    The joy we seek lies less in something new happening and more in our opening our hearts more fully to the love in our lives already. Only love can make us happy, and only we ourselves can determine its presence or absence inside our hearts. To acknowledge love is to increase its capacity to heal us; to ignore love is to let it slip away.

    Look around you while you are in public somewhere or gathered with loved ones. Look into the faces of the people you see, and silently say: 'The light of God in me salutes the light of God in you'. Do it for five minutes, minimum. I defy you to do this each day for at least five minutes and not be happy."

    Hello Debasis; thank you for accepting my friend request :-) I love the philosophy section of your shelf; I'll have to brush up on my '-isms' so we can have some discussions.

    All the best,
    Terre
