Almost set to travel, but never ever quite set. Flying to Dubai...a destination I hated at first experience, and had declared I will never fly to, and here I am.
Anyways, here is a strange headline encountered. This odd man in Kolkota, India, preserved his mother's body in a freezer with chemicals, so he could keep withdrawing a pension PM, using her thumb impression, for a good 3 years!
talk about Creepy. Finally the 90 year old father..still helplessly lingering on in the house, divulged that she had died and her body was still in the house.
Since we have such high Journalistic standards, no illuminating details are forthcoming in the article.

Was reading up on UG. I listen to all the self-help industry stuff, from time to time. Much of it is tosh and my mind rejects it out of sheer boredom. But U.G. strangely ...the anti self help guru as it were, I keep coming back to. I see he contradicts himself at times...but still he is unique in not ever milking people's credulity for some kind of egotistical empire. The knower of God and universe and blah blah.
He will not play people's emotional chords. He is not a manipulator. He is clever...intelligent, astute, contradictory even in a few things, but he is not unethical, or manipulative.
He refused to be part of any Holy business. I was reading the blog www.ugkrishnamurti.net
Like he said himself...he has no teaching to impart. Only a warning that the holy business is bunkum and the chase itself is what will prevent you from getting it. A part of me recognizes it as truth, though it does not operate in my life completely.
