Even if a few events might look real, these are fictionalised and the associated names are changed in order to maintain their privacy.

My slogans (slow guns’ blasts!)
1. A mortal man doesn't know how to live without an identity.
2. Only ignorant (I did not want to use the phrase ‘dumb’) and real saint have no identities.
3. Ignorant (I did not want to use the phrase ‘dumb’) cannot have any identity.
4. In fact, the saints and seers do not need any identity.
5. While you are living (with) in several constraints, and when you overcome one, and feel comfortable, another springs up in a shortest possible time.
6. The dead-ly constraints, often in our lives, are immoral.
7. When, in my life I was thinking, I am a perfect person, my dearest and nearest ones (no offence intended at all), started making me realize that I am an ordinary soul – this is a ‘humble’ beginning of self-realization.
8. When my PCs aren't working, I feel half-dead.
9. When my (inter-)net is not working, I feel my communication with ‘God’ (though I do not tend to believe in one) is snapped.
10. When I don't have any technical work to do for a long time, I feel miserable, and feel I am a ‘useless’ person.
11. We are wiser, but the diseases are just ‘wise’. They know what to do, and do just that. We know what to do, but we do not do it. We are in that way under-wiser.
12. When you are flying high in the skies, and feel that you are achieving greater and greater heights, there is someone on the Earth waiting and trying to pull you down.
13. Why there are people like these, I don't understand, but the experience tells me that they are, and they always will be there and here.
14. Either they envy you, or have a sadistic nature, or they pose as if they are your well-wishers, or even watch dogs; but when confronted, they will pose as if they are innocent, or even ignorant of what ‘harm’ or ‘hurt’ they have had done to you.
15. People say ignorance is bliss, I say knowledge and information are a boon. If the boon gulps the ignorance, we are enlightened; if ignorance swallows boon, we enter the dark-age.
16. I set out with a goal in my mind, and walked and walked, even I ran and ran, and on the path I slept, and woke up and walked, crossed several obstacles, and eventually I was diverted and re-diverted, and in the struggle to reach the goal, I missed the actual path, and even forgot what I had set-out for!
17. If your wife does not come to you, you just don’t answer her questions at all, then she will start coming to you; but then she will use the same trick for you. Follow this suggestion at your own risk.
18. A woman (wife) should not hurt ego of her man (husband), and a man (husband) should not hurt pride of his woman (wife).
19. A philosopher (a modern day saint or seer) once advised: Do not analyse women, just love them. I did not know this earlier; and have had been analysing her for last five decades, and yet, understood her very little, and now I have stopped analysing her, and am following the philosopher’s advice.
20. Keep going, but think differently, one day you will be a different and better person.
