		<description><![CDATA[Another masterpiece of irony, Shantam?

Or monumental self-delusion born of supremely misplaced self-importance, mixed with a high dosage of sheer stupidity, a noxious combination indeed, the source of which most experts believe to be innate, ie almost a &#039;given&#039; from birth, doubtless exacerbated by early environmental influences and current personal circumstances, the latter&#039;s painful deficiencies having prompted the mind to compensate by creating an elaborate fantasy world wherein you are the hero who tirelessly fights Evil (as a &#039;keyboard warrior&#039;, of course), rights communal wrongs and restores &#039;the kingdom&#039; to its former pristine glory (ie heaving with thousands of eligible foreign women, from whom, as an important, seasoned spiritual warrior, you, now deservedly the new Chairman, can take your pick - after the obligatory &#039;White Robe&#039;, but of course).    

As Lokesh has indicated, apart from all that utter, pseudo-mythical nonsense, I&#039;m sure you&#039;re perfectly lovely. Thus, in classical liberal free speech/open debate theoretical terms, I reject your nonsensical notions while accepting your essential value as a fellow human being, thereby separating you the man from your ideas. 

Mmmm...however...come to think of it, that&#039;s a very tricky issue that begs many rather complex questions. Too late to explore that now though....

P.S: 
Shantam, look up &#039;delusions of grandeur&#039; and see how this term applies to you. 
Also note how swiftly your unconscious defence mechanisms operate to inform you it&#039;s all nonsense, that none of that &#039;psychological stuff&#039; could possibly describe you, and that whoever dreamed it up must be a total fool. 
And watch how the reactive rage automatically rises, making you want to hit out at me...
All to avoid seeing these aspects of yourself!

Sounds condescending, patronisingly &#039;superior&#039;, perhaps? Thing is, it&#039;s all very basic stuff, but it seems it has to be spelt out to you as in terms of self-knowledge/self-reflection you come across as if you&#039;ve never gone beyond a sort of &#039;primary school&#039; level (if that).

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks a lot, Parmartha, I don´t think I will ever forget again the difference between peer(s) and pear(s). 

Please don´t correct my mistake in the main post and your MOD. It will encourage others, by writing at snews you get the chance to improve your English!]]></description>

In any field, pears can never accept someone is better than them. Specially those pears have very thin skin ego who do not even stand for their work.

MOD: pears, SHANTAM? WHAT ABOUT apples, bananas, apricots, cherries? PLEASE CLARIFY!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;I think we need to discuss, is the child a boy or a girl or a transgender or someone trapped in the wrong body?

In sannyas lingo, this is what mystery is.&quot;
