Just came back to my seat after witnessing India's thrilling win over Australia in the Second CB Series Final Match. Ah I remember reading in the newspapers and hearing on the TV channels that Ponting had claimed that third final will not be required, how true, India Wrapped up the Win in First two Matches only.
That reminds me of one of Sachin's Interview where he had said, "we might wrap it up in Two matches only...who knows".
Now how befitting reply India has given to the Cricket Australia....winning the CB Series Finals by 2-0. and What a Befitting reply by Harbhajan to both Hayden and Symonds by accounting for both of them min both the finals (Claiming their wickets in first and contributing in Hayden's Run Out in Second and claiming Symonds' Wicket).
Am now just wondering what will Ponting write in his columns? how would he react to the LOSS that too by Two - Nil. Awe poor he...will have to scratch his brains out to come out of an excuse :))
So now here we stand the Triangular CB Series Winner is India with a White wash win after a wonderful all-round performance with every one chipping in.
And what a Boon in disguise to have included Praveen Kumar. He turned out to be a nightmare for the Australians. If Ishant was a pick of Bowler in Test, then Praveen Kumar proved his selection in the One Day Matches.
I hope by the time you guys read this and I get back home to switch on the TV for after match reports, Ponting would have had enough scratching of his brains to come out with an excuse of his life for the LOSS.
Ah and well will certainly wait for the REACTION by the Aussie Media on the LOSS of Australia to India......
Will there be a thinking Power or some obnoxious weed monkey power behind the LOSS ?????

AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION .
I am not sure whether the name at the end is right or wrong, but the conversation indeed is worth reading once. We all say mythology and science are two different things, but then the conversation proves that science also has some part of mythology built into it. A conversation that is worth reading.

AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION .
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty.He asks one of his new students to stand and .....Prof: So you believe in God?Student: Absolutely, sir.Prof: Is God good?Student: Sure.Prof: Is God all-powerful?Student: Yes.Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm? (Student is silent.)Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow. Is God good?Student: Yes.Prof: Is Satan good?Student: No.Prof: Where does Satan come from?Student: from...God...Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?Student: Yes.Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?Student: Yes.Prof: So who created evil?Student does not answer.Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world don't they?Student: Yes, sir.Prof: So, who created them?Student has no answer.Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?Student: No, sir.Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?Student: No, sir.Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?Student: Yes.Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is t he problem science has.Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?Prof: Yes.Student: And is there such a thing as cold?Prof: Yes.Student: No sir. There isn't. (The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it. (There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?Student: You're wrong ag ain, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is n ot the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir? (The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.)Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain? (The class breaks out into laughter.)Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir? (The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH. That is all that keeps things moving & alive. ....WANT TO KNOW WHO THAT STUDENT WAS....NB: I believe you have enjoyed the conversation...and if so...you'll probably want your friends / colleagues to enjoy the same...won't you? So do forward them to increase their knowledge... this is a true story, and the student was none other than.........Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam!
With love,
Believe in god!!!
