A Hindu Prayer for Hakim

Our scriptures teach us that just as pilgrims unite and separate at a public inn, so also fathers, mothers, sons, brothers, wives, relations unite and separate in this world. He who thus understands the nature of the body and all human relationships based upon it will derive strength to bear the loss of our dear ones.

All ripe fruits must drop down from the tree. Death closely follows a man wherever he goes and wherever he sits, and returns with him until his journey ends, however long may be the distance traveled.

On behalf of the entire community, we offer our heartfelt condolences and together we offer our prayer: May the Lord grant strength and courage to the surviving members of Hakim's family. To all relations and friends may the Lord grant ability to give comfort to the bereaved families. May the Lord grant everlasting peace to the departed soul.

Om Aasto ma sadgamaya, tamaso ma jyotirgamaya, mrityorma amritam gamaya, Om shanti, shanti, shanti.

MALAYSIA - 2012

MALAYSIA - 2012...coming soon

UMNO - MCA - MIC

The umno-mca-mic of its founders was based on race, in a good way; but corruption - unequal distribution of opportunity has made us Malaysian really think outside of race in our politics- the language of democracy.

PKR-PAS-DAP group has been a good alternative; but need new blood; nurul, lge, etc. Whats interesting is PAS is not race but religion based; Non Malays like PAS for its non corrupt politicians who reasonably respect their religion as well.

I don't think the opposition will gain vote by complaining about UMNO, MCA, MIC as fundamentally wrong due to being race based. Come on man. its ok to be proud of race - in humility. Complain about how BN policies have failed.

Then again are there any reasonably non corrupt UMNO-MCA-MIC. :)
