What do u want? I don't understand man. I don't have papers man. The ans sheets are with univ and the question papers are thrown away.

I remember one question. It was to translate "Saare Jahan se achchaa". They gave the actual version, and translated the first lines as - "Sarvalokeshu ramyam bhaaratdeshaha asmaakam...".

Dhurandar pai,

I suspect you too want to study sanskrit

I'll give you some tips. If you have studied sanskrit in school, you will have to revise it. That will take you about 6 months. I had not taken sanskrit. That is why I started from CBSE Ruchira 6 Std and worked all the way upto Std 12. I hired a private tutor for that. It took me 2 years. That is about what it would take you, if you know nothing about sanskrit. From that level on, it becomes easier. In 1.5 - 2 years you should be able to do it.

I took longer because I had a terrible Devanagari writing. It is improved, but still bad. Another thing - concentrate also on conversational sanskrit. Just knowing grammar and some subhashitas is not enough.

My 2 cents, and Best Of Luck man. Let our tribe increase.

I can never get tired of reading this gem.. the last line is so famous and so relevant even today, the poem was written in 1954.

समर शेष है - रामधारी सिंह दिनकर

ढीली करो धनुष की डोरी, तरकस का कस खोलो
किसने कहा, युद्ध की बेला गई, शान्ति से बोलो?
किसने कहा, और मत बेधो हृदय वह्नि के शर से
भरो भुवन का अंग कुंकुम से, कुसुम से, केसर से?

कुंकुम? लेपूँ किसे? सुनाऊँ किसको कोमल गान?
तड़प रहा आँखों के आगे भूखा हिन्दुस्तान।

फूलों की रंगीन लहर पर ओ उतराने वाले!
ओ रेशमी नगर के वासी! ओ छवि के मतवाले!
सकल देश में हालाहल है दिल्ली में हाला है,
दिल्ली में रौशनी शेष भारत में अंधियाला है।

मखमल के पर्दों के बाहर, फूलों के उस पार,
ज्यों का त्यों है खड़ा आज भी मरघट सा संसार।

वह संसार जहाँ पर पहुँची अब तक नहीं किरण है,
जहाँ क्षितिज है शून्य, अभी तक अंबर तिमिर-वरण है।
देख जहाँ का दृश्य आज भी अन्तस्तल हिलता है,
माँ को लज्जा वसन और शिशु को न क्षीर मिलता है।

पूज रहा है जहाँ चकित हो जन-जन देख अकाज,
सात वर्ष हो गए राह में अटका कहाँ स्वराज?

अटका कहाँ स्वराज? बोल दिल्ली! तू क्या कहती है?
तू रानी बन गयी वेदना जनता क्यों सहती है?
सबके भाग्य दबा रक्खे हैं किसने अपने कर में ?
उतरी थी जो विभा, हुई बंदिनी, बता किस घर में?

समर शेष है यह प्रकाश बंदीगृह से छूटेगा,
और नहीं तो तुझ पर पापिनि! महावज्र टूटेगा।

समर शेष है इस स्वराज को सत्य बनाना होगा।
जिसका है यह न्यास, उसे सत्वर पहुँचाना होगा।
धारा के मग में अनेक पर्वत जो खड़े हुए हैं,
गंगा का पथ रोक इन्द्र के गज जो अड़े हुए हैं,

कह दो उनसे झुके अगर तो जग में यश पाएँगे,
अड़े रहे तो ऐरावत पत्तों -से बह जाएँगे।

समर शेष है जनगंगा को खुल कर लहराने दो,
शिखरों को डूबने और मुकुटों को बह जाने दो।
पथरीली, ऊँची ज़मीन है? तो उसको तोडेंग़े।
समतल पीटे बिना समर की भूमि नहीं छोड़ेंगे।

समर शेष है, चलो ज्योतियों के बरसाते तीर,
खंड-खंड हो गिरे विषमता की काली जंज़ीर।

समर शेष है, अभी मनुज-भक्षी हुँकार रहे हैं।
गाँधी का पी रुधिर, जवाहर पर फुंकार रहे हैं।
समर शेष है, अहंकार इनका हरना बाकी है,
वृक को दंतहीन, अहि को निर्विष करना बाकी है।

समर शेष है, शपथ धर्म की लाना है वह काल
विचरें अभय देश में गांधी और जवाहर लाल।

तिमिरपुत्र ये दस्यु कहीं कोई दुष्कांड रचें ना!
सावधान, हो खड़ी देश भर में गांधी की सेना।
बलि देकर भी बली! स्नेह का यह मृदु व्रत साधो रे
मंदिर औ' मस्जिद दोनों पर एक तार बाँधो रे!

समर शेष है, नहीं पाप का भागी केवल व्याघ्र,
जो तटस्थ हैं, समय लिखेगा उनका भी अपराध।

Sarv Shaktiman Pai,

All you say is fine, but look at the practicality man. We all see a lot of shit going on today, corruption, screw-balling, etc. I have, you have, all of us have. There is nothing we can do about it. You or I try to do anything, we will only get screwed. This is the reality of the situation.

One doubt - is it vyaghra (tiger) or vyaaadha (hunter)?

Its thread derailment time now.

It seems the name Viagra had been copied (oops inspired) from Vyaghra.

vyaghra is the tiger.. paap is done not only by the one committing it.. but also the ones that are tathastha (meaning the ones silently watching .. not taking a part, sitting motionless, impartial).. they too are responsible.. and will be made to pay for impartiality. समय लिखेगा उनका भी अपराध

Arre yaaar Dirty,

I had this dream of languages for a very long time. After you left the company, the top boss (old man) encouraged me. In fact, I would have liked to have gone and touched his feet, but unfortunately he is no more. He would have been thrilled.

It is commendable man ! I salute you . When you talk about off the beaten path, you took it to next level by defining your path........ As we all race towards that age number, I am glad you have achieved something in life....While we are still running after Miss Money Ben.
