“નવકાર નવકાર તું મારો ભાઈ, તારી ને મારી ઘણી સગાઇ. અંધકારે તું યાદ આઓ જો, મારો તું ભાવના શૂળ રાખ જે સાચા ને સીધી, જૂથ ને મિચમિ દુઃખદમ.
Navkar navkar tu Maro bhai,
Tari ne mari ghani sagai.
Andhkare tu yaad aao jo,
Maro tu bhavna shud rakh je
Sacha ne sidhi,
jutha ne michami dukhdam.
Those who understand the highest potential of life and are aligned to that path,
I hold kinship with you, you are my brothers.
In the darkest times, please come back to me.
Keep my feelings pure, keep my interests pure.
Those who are with truth, may you be blessed with more capacity.
Those who are with untruth, I wish upon you that any evil that befalls, that it comes to naught."
- via Viswa Shah's Grandpa, Indore, India”

“Now and then, teaching may approach poetry, and now and then it may approach profanity. May I tell you a little story about the great Einstein? I listened once to Einstein as he talked to a group of physicists in a party. "Why have all the electrons the same charge?" said he. "Well, why are all the little balls in the goat dung of the same size?" Why did Einstein say such things? Just to make some snobs to raise their eyebrows? He was not disinclined to do so, I think. Yet, probably, it went deeper. I do not think that the overheard remark of Einstein was quite casual. At any rate, I learnt something from it: Abstractions are important; use all means to make them more tangible. Nothing is too good or too bad, too poetical or too trivial to clarify your abstractions. As Montaigne put it: The truth is such a great thing that we should not disdain any means that could lead to it. Therefore, if the spirit moves you to be a little poetical, or a little profane, in your class, do not have the wrong kind of inhibition." - George Polya's Mathematical Discovery, Volume 11, pp 102, 1962.”

“Running fast is useless if it is in the wrong direction. Even worse is to run fast into a bottomless pit. It is better to walk sometimes, and even better, to be conscious and still, and do nothing sometimes. To be conscious one has to be unconscious "asleep" a lot." - Solomon Vimal (geothara.com)”
