This morning, I thought to put an effort to give mutation to some popular sayings. The entangled result :
1. Buy and nobody buys with you, sell and everybody sell with you.
2. A dollar in hand is worth two hundred in any of Bush`s banks.
3. Where there is a home, there is a dying mortgage house.
4. Index helps those, who help shorting selves.
5. Realty is the best cruelty.

Cognitive Therapy :
Cognitive restructuring is a method for fundamentally undermining and altering the causes of your chronic negative moods and emotions. Practiced regularly and accurately, it enables people to experience their problem moods less frequently, and less intensely. The method is best suited for preventing negative moods from occurring in the first place, or preventing negative moods from getting worse, however. In order for it to work, you need to be capable of thinking logically and rationally. It is very difficult to do that when you are emotional. You must turn to other techniques for calming yourself down when you are feeling upset.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Great lies are considered truth almost always by almost all.
Here are two examples :
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For food, substitute the phrase with - "fortified with x number of essential vitamins." People sure do pay a lot if they think they are eating healthy. Fortified is an incredibly strong word that makes you want to join the army and siege a castle - a wimpy word like "contains" or something like that just doesn`t cut it - fortified sounds like you crammed every possible serving size of nutrition into that particular piece of food - a solid brick fortress of nutrition.
And now even a bigger one .....
White people are probably the best liars out of any race. That why so many are politicians and lawyers. Why do you think there are so many white politicians and lawyers? White people = great liars. How much bullshit have we eaten from George W. Bush alone? I am in awe of his spectacular lying abilities. Yep, you sure were right about Iraq. It`ll only take a couple of months - whoops, I actually mean years. It`ll only take a little bit - whoop - I mean, trillions of dollars to fight this war. Well, at least those stockpiles of WMDs are off the streets - dang it - well, it looks like there aren`t any here. Huh. I couldn`t have sworn that there were. How about that…well, I`m pretty sure they got moved to Iran, maybe we should look - whoops - I mean bomb the shit out that country.

Self Healing Attibutes of Body
```````````````````````````````````````````````
Our mind body system is designed to HEAL ITSELF. All we need to do is to REMOVE OBSTACLES from the body and from the mind. This can be accomplished with or without the help of others. If you cut your finger with a sharp object, the wound HEALS ITSELF and if the damage is not extensive, the repair job is SO perfect, that after a few weeks you cannot even remember which finger was hurt. Even the fingerprints are reconstructed. Of course self-healing is not limited to scratches and bruises. Exactly the same self-healing processes occur ALL THE TIME in ALL POSSIBLE organs of the body.
Even if we abuse our body, it tries to heal itself, unless the damage is extensive and we continue doing mistakes for years. Severe illnesses are largely result of our complete ignorance on both: the physical level (diet, poisoning, lifestyle) as well as on the mental level (bad mental hygiene and discipline, wrong understanding of purpose of life). Pain and suffering are just signals to our conscious mind that we have to CHANGE our ways. When we do, in the right direction, we "miraculously" recover. When we follow the flock, and resist Nature, we suffer. This is the law of Nature.
The mind-body system has almost unlimited self repair capabilities, but most of people deny themselves any access to them. The biggest mistake you can make is to ACCEPT someone`s "advice" that your condition is incurable. If you accept such an advice, your fear effectively SABOTAGES the self-healing process, which is under complete control of your consciousness on all levels, including the subconscious functioning of your body and mind. Fear blocks any logic, dramatically reducing your own self healing ability. There is NOTHING in the Universe to be afraid of, except our own ignorance and its consequences. Unfortunately most people doubt everyone and everything, except their own ignorance.
The idea of "incurable" or "chronic" condition comes simply from limited understanding of healing processes and/or arrogant attitude of people who claim to be "health" authorities but have never seen a true recovery.

|| Breathing Methods ||
Rapid, deep breathing lowers your vitality, reduces your resistance to disease, and leads to an agitated state of mind. You need to breathe better! Your brain requires a careful balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide for clear thinking. Your muscles need it for vitality. And your digestive system needs it to utilise the food you eat and to get rid of waste products.
Our breathing mechanism is automatic and is based on past habits. Many of us develop bad breathing habits which result in an overall reduction in health. Altering your breathing instantly alters your state! For example sitting quietly and allowing your breathing to become calmer, slower and shallower can produce a calmer state within a few minutes. So being able to alter your breathing - to temporarily move from `automatic` to `manual` control puts you more in the driving seat of your own emotions and the general rule is
Deep breathing tends to produce more agitation
Shallow breathing produces calmness
Becoming skilled at changing your state through altering your breathing boosts your confidence in your state-management ability. So that unwelcome moods become just that - unwelcome. Not fearful, or threatening, nor in same way indicative of personal weakness or inadequacy.Having the breathing skills to alter such unwelcome moods puts you in charge of yourself.
Incidentally, while you can very quickly change your state using breathing methods you also need to change your thinking patterns to ensure that the change of state continues. If you only alter your breathing but continue with the same old thoughts the unwelcome moods will quickly return.

Eat well for pure thoughts :
It is said that the kind of food you consume has a direct bearing on your thoughts. The first step to reach the state of Nirvana is through giving your taste buds some rest and consuming food which is required to keep you going.
Food that we consume can broadly be divided as — tamsik and satvik food. Tamsik food means food items which are spicy, over-cooked and fried and have low food value, which is primarily eaten to satisfy the taste buds. Satvik foods are pure, less spicy, boiled, raw, sprouted and with minimum fat.
Fasting is practised in many parts of the world. It ranges from eating once in a day to eating only fruits or milk and milk-products diet. In the Bhagavad Gita , Lord Krishna states that all foods can be classified according to the three modes of material nature — goodness, passion, and ignorance.
Vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, sugar, and milk products are foods in the mode of goodness and may be offered to God. As a general rule, foods in the modes of passion and ignorance are not worth offering to God (Krishna), who says in the Gita that such eatables cause pain, distress and disease and are putrid, decomposed and unclean.
Foods that are too bitter, too sour, salty, hot, pungent, dry and burning are dear to those in the mode of passion. Such foods cause distress, misery and disease.

%% The Importance of Religion %%
Religion forms a critical aspect of the entire global population. While certain religions factions are responsible for many of our wars or disagreements, in general, religious beliefs offer people something to hold onto in times of trouble or indecision. The idea that a higher being is at work in the universe is comforting for many and creates a placating effect.
Most religions have a ruling doctrine or book of some kind. Be it the Koran, the Bible, or the Talmud, these books offer instructions or guidelines for living life that are often similar. Reaching out to those in need, taking time to reflect on the goodness of the world around us and offering kindness rather than animosity seems to be common themes throughout many religions.
Positive Aspects of Religion :
Religion has its place in the world. Not only does it encourage civilized, friendly behavior among one group of followers and another, it also offers individuals a chance to strive toward something. Having a goal is crucial to finding satisfaction in life. Religions offer guidelines and requirements designed to lead followers toward better lives and ultimately, better afterlives.
Negative Aspects of Religion :
Like all things, the good must come with the bad. Almost every war or battle fought had some tie to religion. Overly zealous lords or leaders used religious differences and intolerance to attack their neighbors or others. Of course, these sorts of practices of hate and xenophobia are the complete opposite of what most doctrines profess, but most zealots can not be convinced their plans are not just and righteous.

Ability measurement with EQ :
EQ actually stands for Emotional Intelligence Quotient. Much like an intelligence quotient, or IQ, an EQ is said to be a measure of a person’s emotional intelligence. However, there is much debate surrounding the legitimacy of a definition of emotional intelligence quotient, primarily because there is no standard against which it can be measured. Regardless of the actual scientific basis of measuring EQ, the concept is used in many different settings. One particularly popular setting that employs attempts at measuring EQ is the corporate world. Many businesses utilize EQ tests to help their employees determine and measure their emotional responses to various situations. While most corporate EQ tests are administered on the basis that a person’s EQ can be modified or increased, there is dispute about whether emotional intelligence is standard or can be changed.
Currently there are studies being conducted on possible ways that an EQ may affect a person’s abilities to perform under pressure, resolve conflict, and generally cope with challenges. Of course those who are not proponents of the concept believe these abilities are simply a matter of personality, which cannot be measured or modified. Other studies have linked EQ measurements to communication and other social skills that people either lack or possess.
A person’s EQ can be measured using any one of a number of assessments, including one developed by the aforementioned Salovey and Mayer. Some assessments utilize self-given responses while others are peer-given responses. An EQ test may give insight into a person’s personality and psychological make up, but discovering the true meaning of EQ and its relationship to and impact on a person’s life and social performance may be years and many studies away from anything definitive.

New Delhi (PTI): An ordinary performance in Sri Lanka and no longer young at 38, Anil Kumble came under scanner of critics but former spin greats say the Indian Test captain is still the best bowler in the team.
Spin great Bishen Bedi dismisses any talk of Kumble`s dip in form as simply `ridiculous`.
"I have seen a lot of Indian bowlers over the years and for me, Kumble is the best ever. It is ridiculous for people to question his performances," Bedi said.
"He is still India`s strike bowler and the best bowler. It is a fact of life that Kumble has grown a little old now and his performance has dipped but he is still a deadly bowler. You just have to rewind to earlier this year and you can see that Kumble was troubling the Aussie batsmen in their own backyard," said the former captain when asked whether the Karnataka leg-spinner was still a threat to opposition batsmen.
Another spin great Erapalli Prasnna felt that a lot will depend on Kumble if India had to win the forthcoming Test series against Australia against whom the Indian captain has a fantastic record having taken 108 wickets from 18 Tests.
"This is the weakest Australian batting line-up that has ever traveled to India. It is advantageous for Kumble that he does not have to bowl at top-quality batsmen of spin bowling. A lot depends on how well he fares and the series will be won or loss on that," said Prasanna.
"He is old but is still extremely consistent with his line and length. You cannot expect a champion bowler like him to perform forever. He is ageing and his role has also changed. In the 90s, he was the only strike bowler that India had but the scenario has changed recently. However I still feel that a lot depends on him," Prasanna told cricketnirvana.com.
How much the burden of captaincy has affected Kumble`s performance? Bedi would think it has done wonders.
"Captaincy has done wonders to his career. His greatest strength is his discipline, dedication, attitude and approach towards his game and the sport in general. There is nobody in the last two decades who has matched Sachin Tendulkar in terms of performance. That itself is a great compliment for the man," said Bedi.
Prasanna said even at 38 Kumble has still got the fire to take on the best of the batsmen and he would not think the "jumbo" would think of quitting after the home Test series against Australia.
"I don`t think so (retirement). Watching him bowl recently, I think he has still got a lot of fire in him. He is not playing for records either. I think captaincy has motivated him even more and he is very determined to do well against Australia," said Prasanna.
Bedi feels that the question of retirement should be best left to Kumble.
"He (Kumble) is the man at the helm, the man in charge and knows when to carry on till. Knowing him I know for a fact that he is not prolonging his career. Even after 18 years with the team, Kumble still feels that he has a lot to offer to the country and that is why he is hanging around. My only concern is that Kumble should retire on his own terms," he said

Are you offended my post to cdfd? What do you feel about cdfd calling for killing of brahmins and beating of hindu gods with chappals? My response was to bring him down from his moral superiority utopia to real world.
Besides if facts malign the problem cannot be with facts or the messenger. Is that not a simple fact?

Dear KK,
How can you replace RP with Laxman/Ganguly coz RP is a strike bowler ? It makes sense if you had said MUNAF/SREESANTH. Definitely LAXMAN cant be a replacement for RP.
Rohit and Raina are playing extremely well in the recent times. Raina scored 150+ against kiwis and today ROHIT played amazingly well against AUSSIES and scored a superb 100. Youngsters should get more chances and LAXMAN/GANGULY should retire now irrespective of some cricket left in them. Only SACHIN/KUBMLE should be held in the FAB 5 because they are the legends of India in Batting and Bowling. We should allow them to get as many records as possible so that not many can break those easily.
Ofcourse, if they keep on failing miserably match after match even they should be removed and give way for youngsters....
