So all you desi boys and girls, dark skin or not, you are beautiful just the way you are. No need to change your skin to be fair and white. And no need to adapt to one's culture to fit in. If you feel uncomfortable to do what other people are doing, then don't do it!

The so-called mystical characters of India, whom you call in many ways, such as __wami_, __aba_ and __uru_ are nothing but an informal, cheap and primitive substitute for modern psychotherapists or counsellors.

Policemen are often confronted with situations which baffle them at first. A certain crime scene may seem meaningless, but they have to derive some meaning out of it. They have to connect the dots, find the links, delve into its history, look for evidence, come up with a zillion theories and arrive at truth. The thing is, truth is always stranger than fiction.

Get rid of your useless ceremonials and be educated like your ancient ancestors _ Aryabhatta, Brahmagupta, Susruta and others. Make education your purpose of life and spread it among the masses.

It is all about the trade of ignorance. And India is such a bronze-age nation that is filled with these trades (astrology, palm reading, vastushashtra and others).

there is no place of politics in education. The moment you let politics invade your education system, you inadvertently welcome chaos into the future of young India. Educational institutions have nothing to do with political propagandas. So, open your eyes, and throw any kind of political agenda out of your institutions.

India was and to some extent, still is, a nation where its citizens care more about their religious freedom than any other earthly possession. Give them food or not, it doesn__ matter to them, as long as they are allowed to practice their religion. But, take away their religion, they will fight till the last breath of their life.

The traditional Indian mind has been for centuries, and still is, first religious, and then everything else.

In India, it is religion that forms the very core of the national heart. It is the backbone - the bed-rock - the foundation upon which the national edifice has been built.

She is too intelligent to be a good daughter-in-law

I thought about my [Punjabi] family. The only nakshatram we think about is the division of petrol pumps when we have to see the girl.

Marble flooring is to a Punjabi what a foreign degree is to a Tamilian

To the traditional Indians, terms such as __ntercourse_, __enis_, __agina_, __litoris_, __emen_, __asturbation_, __reasts_, etc. are exclusive possessions of the night. The traditional Indians perceive these terms as something __irty_. No matter how old they look, they really never grow up to talk and discuss about sex.

As a sign of utmost gratitude for his contributions to the Indian society in restoring equal rights of the citizens, I confer him (B.R. Ambedkar) the title __artin Luther King Jr. of India.

A community that engages readers and culturally enabled people to connect, support and harness intellectual and cultural capabilities.

The overload of useless ceremonials and worship have crippled the whole nation. If you want to do good to your nation and yourself, then throw away your ancient ceremonials as far as possible.

These stupid biases and discrimination are the reason our country is so screwed up. It's Tamil first, Indian later. Punjabi first, Indian later. It has to end. National anthem, national currency, national teams - still, we won't marry our children outside our state. How can this intolerance be good for our country?

In a moment, at the very center of the swept and cleaned veranda, she had drawn two intersecting triangles, one upward- pointing and the other downward-pointing. In one, god's grace descended from heaven to earth; in the other, the soul ascended, aspiring toward god. Because of Sitamma's faultless eye, both met in perfect harmony.
