    Wow, I am discovering people from all over the world singing praises about the Gita :) I realise there is a cultural gap, and take no offence, but never suggest putting a Gita in the bathroom. Amazon doesn't deliver to India and I have a copy already anyway. I'm curious, which version did you read? Did you read only the English translation, or the original Sanskrit as well?

    Cheers, Vikram. (Proud to have finally cracked a CCC!)

    Cultural differences, to be sure. In the US, many people read in the bathroom, which is a perfectly clean and respectable part of the house(unless you live in a shady and run down part of town). In fact, it's often nicknamed, "The Library." My literacy is limited to English, so I read a translation that's still sitting on my bookshelf somewhere, along with the Tao Te Ching, the Bible, the Koran, writings on Zen and many, many other such things. I mention this only to illustrate that my respect for the Gita is not due to any religious affiliation (I seek truth wherever I can find it), but simply because I thought it said many worthwhile things, and said them well.

      I can no longer call myself 25 :) Four days in Coimbatore, with just my parents and the dog (my brother is in Delhi), and I also watched the Ashes (no TV here in Madras). I now have a slightly heightened sense of urgency - figure out a good direction for my career, should be getting married in a couple of years, buy a house roughly within the same timeframe. Lots more to do, lots more to read, perhaps learn a foreign language. Must travel to see a few places (Bhutan stands out) - difficult to do that with 'da boyz' after marriage. Read the Gita. Expand my culinary horizons beyond competency. I'm also going to book my GMAT date for mid-Oct. What was it like when turned 25 or 26? What long-term goals do you have now? :)

        26 wasn't any particular milestone for me. I was in New York playing in large rock & roll bars, chasing cute girls, drinking lots of whiskey and ingesting substances of dubious medicinal value. As I recall, my primary goals had to do with eating on a regular basis (not as simple as you might think when you're a professional musician) and meeting more cute girls. I didn't get into programming until I was 32. Being new to the game, my primary goals had to do with finding work and eating on a regular basis (I'm sensing a pattern here). By the way, if you think about getting married because "it's time for you to get married," you're quite likely going to end up with a really substandard relationship because you'll take whatever girl seems to fit the bill at the point in time when you feel like you should be married. If you instead let marraige come whenever it comes and concentrate on finding the girl you simply can't live without, your marraige will be an inspiration to your life instead of a burden. And if you haven't read the Gita by now, you really need to hit Amazon today. Put a copy in the bathroom and you'll get through it. That's more appropriate than you may think, as the Gita is meant to promote introspection. Read a bit and reflect rather than trying to sit down and read it cover to cover, and you'll get much more out of the experience. [edit] Since it's been pointed out a couple of times, I felt it worth mentioning that no disrespect was intended in my remarks about putting a copy of the Gita in the bathroom. It's simply my ignorance of Indian culture (see my comments on this in the reply to Vikram below). Where I come from, doing the reading is more important that where you do it, but I understand that not everyone sees the world through my eyes, and of course would never intentionally offer comments that were offensive to someone's beliefs.

        Refrain stating this again in front of Indians. It is considered a Holy book and bathroom is a highly inappropriate place.

                          Congrats that's a fun age. At 26 I thought I had everything pretty much figured out. Now 6 years later I'm back to wondering what I want to be when I grow up. :-D

By the way, if you think about getting married because "it's time for you to get married," you're quite likely going to end up with a really substandard relationship because you'll take whatever girl seems to fit the bill at the point in time when you feel like you should be married.

                                That's just a small part of the story. It's been an interesting life thus far... :-D

                                  You are an expert. All I can do is make tea and all those boil for 10 mins and eat kind of things.

                                    This could well become a good movie. But the programming thing would be removed for sure. They don't show programmers. Only hackers.

                                      I can no longer call myself 25 :) Four days in Coimbatore, with just my parents and the dog (my brother is in Delhi), and I also watched the Ashes (no TV here in Madras). I now have a slightly heightened sense of urgency - figure out a good direction for my career, should be getting married in a couple of years, buy a house roughly within the same timeframe. Lots more to do, lots more to read, perhaps learn a foreign language. Must travel to see a few places (Bhutan stands out) - difficult to do that with 'da boyz' after marriage. Read the Gita. Expand my culinary horizons beyond competency. I'm also going to book my GMAT date for mid-Oct. What was it like when turned 25 or 26? What long-term goals do you have now? :)

                                      That's about right. I seem to recall taking the GMAT and GRE both at 25 or so.

                                      Nothing hurt in the morning; beer tasted better; housing and gas were affordable; jobs were plentiful and paid well; there was no Internet or cable TV or cell phones; we thought herpes was bad; California was still a part of the US rather than a socialist police state; Republican and Democrat meant different things; the enemy of freedom was the USSR, not the federal, state, and local government; we really could call a cop for help and get it, instead of being harrassed, searched, and arrested for absolutely nothing. Other than that, not much has changed.

                                        Happy birthday brother :) The Gita is on my list of must read items, haven't gotten to it yet! 26 was a fun age for me :) I was in China at the time and I was (and still am) madly in love with my then girlfriend, got married when I was 27, best thing I ever did, though she says that she made me do it and she might be right! Anyways, don't fall into the trap we easterners get from our mothers (though my mum is a Cannuck she's been here long enough!) and accept an arranged marriage, wait for the right one to show up :)

                                          Boiling water is trivial. The skill comes from being able to scorch it. :rolleyes:
