Man, i am in the final pages of the book Cosmos written by Carl Sagan.. and it was simply mind blowing, it makes you rething about everything you know .... i love to read books by such masters . it makes the other things so petty in comparison, the things men fight about, the territory fights, the mindless killings, what a waste, humans do not even know what they are doing... it is comp-lete foolishness, wish they could see the truth and divert their energies toward more fruitful purposes :( what that is gonna take a long time ... we are making progress but its very slow, but hopefully we will be there in a few centuries ...
reading such works makes me wish that i could express myself more vividly, with more grace, but i am afraid that is the gift to a select few ... looking forward to read all of Sagan's books ... soon !!!
Finished another book three days back - The lost Symbol By Dan Brown, it was thoroughly enjoyable but i will say that the path was more enjoyable than the destination ... I mean.. the process was magnificinent, the way brown informs us about the various customs and rituals and the hidden facts about many things of our daily life is very interesting, but the final truth to which he leads us to was a little disappointing ... hmmmmm ... but the book was great.. maybe i expected more ... but the process of reading the book and the revelations were very exciting, finished it in 3 days ...
