thanks for providing the link Jess

Interesting analysis by an expert...i liked what he says

"literary text should be regarded as the expression of the psychology of an individual, which in its turn is the expression of the milieu and the period in which the individual lived, and of the race to which he belonged"

i believe the word "race" is in the context of culture..

I do believe, raj, that by awareness

of our cultural milieu we can think outside it and achieve a certain objectivity or even somewhat empirical valuation. It is a major effort in cognitive mindfulness though.

You Invented The Lie !!!

Your invented lie that I live a sinless life of perfection is a lie born from your mouth - NOT MINE !!
Now as far as my invented ego that YOU CLAIM
that is when he said to me- even when you are wrong - YOU WERE RIGHT !! It had nothing to do with ego............it was just the simple truth of the matter at hand.
Now quit being a mindless IDIOT MORON and show me where I said or implied that I lived a sinless life of perfection.
When you can show me where I said those words. THEN I WILL APOLOGIZE to you !!
