Yesterday I told you some tricks that we played on others and I remembered some more. One person has to go to the roof and sit there with a string onto which is a hook attached. Another person has to be in the street with the hook in the hand. In India many men wear a turban and many people have scarves on their shoulders, especially in Holi time in order to protect themselves from colour. They are walking on the street and the second person has to walk behind then and quickly attach the hook to the turban, hat or scarf which is then pulled up and away from them by the one on the roof. His hat flies up and he will only realize this once his hat is already in the air. And often he is asked for one or two Rupees to get his hat back. And the children will use the Rupees to buy colour to play.

Another trick is that one of the smaller boys has to sit in a bag on the street. It has to be a big bag which we usually use for potatoes or vegetables. It is tied with a string on top. In the back of this bag there has to be a hole which cannot be seen from the front side. When someone walks by another child has to try lifting the bag and ask for help. Usually everyone will want to help and in the moment that this person tries to lift the bag, using much strength because it looked heavy, the small boy crawls out of the bag and runs away. Everybody has to laugh when they see the surprise of the one person who wanted to lift the bag.

There are many such tricks and we always had lots of fun! And nobody gets angry in this time! Everybody has fun and enjoys.

Words of Wisdom

  • Superstition

    The average religious person of the middle-class would be so much happier if he left religion and superstition and lived his life without it!

    Source
  • Religion

    Criminals and people who do wrong live in fear of the consequences of their actions. Religion gives them a good way to find forgiveness. You only need to go to the temple regularly, tell a priest about what you have on your mind, pay some money, say some prayers and you are forgiven. Then you can go out to do the next crime.

    Source
  • Lie

    People usually don’t lie because they want to harm someone but to hide their thoughts, to hide their feelings, shortly to hide themselves. It is one of the greatest problems that a person can have: low self-esteem.

    Source
  • Sects

    Sects go to extremes - Either lots of sex or no sex at all!

    Source
  • Friend

    End a friendship if it only exhausts you!

    Source
  • Belief

    Atheists don’t feel guilty for things that they have not done and which was not under their control but accept consequences of their own actions and wrong decisions.

    Source
  • Sex

    Officially, all Indians are virgins when they marry.

    Source
  • Negativity

    In the West, many people live in negative thinking and live in fear with a negative attitude. They are hopeless, suspicious, doubtful and always see the dark side of things. Most of all, they don't enjoy life. Come out of this negativity and see how beautiful life is!

    Source
  • Expectations

    Why do we want to change somebody? Why can’t we change ourselves? And if we cannot even change ourselves, then how can we expect any change in somebody else?

    Source
  • Positivity

    If our attitude is positive, it can change everything including our way of living. If we say ‘yes’ to life, to love, to laughing, enjoying and having fun, we can change our lives.

    Source
  • Closeness

    Love cannot grow if you don’t have closeness. Sometimes it is very hard to get close to someone. Sometimes there is physical closeness but no closeness of the heart, sometimes the mind is close but nothing else. You cannot establish a strong relationship if you don’t accept full closeness.

    Source
  • Soul

    Love is the soul of our soul. Without it, you can be alive, but your soul is dead. We need love, it is the essence of our essence.

    Source
  • Sex

    After Import in the West, Tantra became red, white, black and sexy!

    Source
  • Followers

    Real followers always need someone to follow. When they get disappointed by the person they are following, they search for another one.

    Source
  • Followers

    The words ‘followers’, ‘disciples’ or ‘devotees’ give much room for abuse of the relationship to a guru.

    Source
  • Spiritual

    Religion and spirituality don’t need a Guru. It is the way that you go and what you accept in life, it is nothing to learn, it is just implementing your honesty into life. It is love and you don’t need to learn love. If you are in love and you are honest, you are already spiritual.

    Source
  • God

    Too many people just say they trust in God and his actions – but if you want to reach somewhere and do something in life, you need to act yourself! It does not help to just sit there and have faith. Lose your faith, get out of your chair and out into the real world!

    Source
  • Hope

    Hope is always good and it is part of having a positive attitude. Believing that the impossible will happen is either closing the eyes in front of reality or just stupid.

    Source
  • Psychology

    Don't take everything personal!

    Source
  • Truth

    All religions say that only they know the truth and are busy in advocating their case. But the truth is that you only need to advocate something if it is untrue. The truth is true and will show itself.
