Know thyself!!

The Solitaire Mystery by Jostein Gaarder....Again..


Excerpts..
I think the whole universe is intended. There is some kind of purpose or other behind all the myraids of stars & galaxies.

Everything existing has a reason, meaning, some purpose. If not, then why does it exist in the first place? If a particular event has happened, then definitely there is some reason, some cause.


There is so much inexplicable in this life..world..



If our brain was simple enough for us to understand it, we would be so stupid we wouldnt be able to understand it after all.

I would really like to think a thought that is so difficult that I cant think it.


I simply loved the way Author has subtly mentioned the enigmatic human brain :)


It was a mystery to me how ppl on earth could simply roam around the world without asking questions, over & over again, about who they were & where they came from . How could life on this planet be something you either turned your back on or took for granted?

How terribly sad it was that people are made in such a way that they get used to something as extraordinary as living.




A joker is the little fool who is different from everyone else. He is placed in the same pack as the other cards, but he doesnt belong there.
A joker in a pack of cards is an altogether seperate card, a card which is completely different from the rest of the cards. & that is exactly what makes it lil unique. This corresponds to those human beings who are different from the "common" human beings, think abt their existence, wonder about their life, this world. Who dont take life granted, whose thoughts are not common place, who think, wonder and are in awe of this mystical world :)

Time doest pass, time doesnt tick. We are the ones who pass, & our watches tick.
Again this thought about TIME...the elusive TIME..is amazing :)

  1. There are tons of people who are not just wondering or asking questions but working day and night to find reasons to all enigmas of existence - they are called scientists!

    The comment the human brain is a great one - I have heard it before and thought it was really amazing although so simple.
