I suggest you pick up a copy of vol 2 of Isaac Asimov's collection of short stories (it ought to have it) and read it. Very creepy.<BR/><BR/>I still stand my case. I'm talking about perspectives.

The examples in this post indicate that you were just looking at the finer details of the surrounding around you, which you had missed earlier.<BR/><BR/>It is always difficult to know the 100% truth of events and people arround us. The truths largely depends on the context in which they are referred. Some things in life are just so complicated that no opinion or fact about it can be called "the complete truth". <BR/><BR/>And I know that you are very fascinated by this concept that everything arround us is a big farce. I remember you telling a similar story you had read somewhere about a foreman and a briiliant scientist who discover the truth and then die mysteriously. <BR/><BR/>In fact, a long time ago I had read an article in scientific American that said the this whole universe is nothing but a big hologram...which is after all a farcetruptihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07891101983868382000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2255624821032667233.post-37847068141880807582009-03-14T11:18:00.000+05:302009-03-14T11:18:00.000+05:30@Falconer,My response was not aimed at you.

However, your examples are way off the topic, and deal more with the unawareness, which is still in the "fake world"! <BR/><BR/>Nice post, but I'd have liked it more if you hadn't mixed the two issues.abhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10338997498421433534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2255624821032667233.post-41831241591604213692009-03-12T15:44:00.000+05:302009-03-12T15:44:00.000+05:30Do not try to bend the spoon, because that is impo...Do not try to bend the spoon, because that is impossible. <BR/>Instead just try and realize the truth<BR/>There is no spoon.<BR/>Then you will see that its not the spoon that bends, only yourself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2255624821032667233.post-90435019039804692772009-03-12T11:20:00.000+05:302009-03-12T11:20:00.000+05:30When I say our college is beautiful, every one lau...When I say our college is beautiful, every one laughs at me :|<BR/><BR/>Seriously creepy post :SA half lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04413083593575745999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2255624821032667233.post-75240494869402273112009-03-11T15:29:00.000+05:302009-03-11T15:29:00.000+05:30I must say that is actually a very valid point.
