Isn't it strange how a 20 rupee note seems like such a large amount when
you donate it to temple,but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you're at the Temple ,
and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie?

Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say when you're praying,
but you have no trouble thinking what to talk or gossip about with a friend?

Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter
of the Bhagwad Gita, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel ?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games, but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last rowat the TEMPLE or Bhajans and Prayers?

Isn't it strange how we need to know about an event for Temple 2-3
weeks before the day so we can include it in our agenda, but we can
adjust it for other events in the last minute?

Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others, but how easy
it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?

Isn't it strange how we believe everything that magazines and newspapers
say, but we question the words in our Ramayan and Bhagwad Gita?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in heaven, but they don't want
to believe, do, or say anything to get there?

Isn't it strange how we send jokes in e-mails and they are forwarded right away,
but when we are going to send messages about God, we think about it twice before we share it with others?
