Lord V, The Pacifier
When i got back from Baddy this morning, was zapped by the shorned look of the Betel Leaves in the backyard. The gardener understood instructions his own way and laid waste to the place.
Guess we are victims of our instructions and have to invoke Hanlon's Razor to pacify ourselves:
| Don't assume malice when stupidity will suffice.
Einstein had already observed:
| Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about th'universe!
The pain continued into the puja room, even as i was playing that melodious half-an-hour "Govinda, Govinda".
When i lit the agarbatti, the flame didn't die during the arati and stayed put.
As it burned down, it reminded me of Lord V and, by the end of the puja, there was hardly any sorrow for the "tonsure".
