"When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be." - Patanjali

The end is nigh?

Reading the Indian Express this evening, I came across a couple of articles which truly indicate the distance India has to go, in order to wipe out corruption and the part "influence" has to play in the running of soceity.

The first deals with Sourav Ganguly and the supposed end to his tenure in the one-day team. The article concludes with the following:

"Then again, there’s always that one man who can turn Indian cricket over with a single phone call—Jagmohan Dalmiya. But Dalmiya is caught up in a whirlpool of court cases and the crucial BCCI elections scheduled in November. If he wins, he’ll be back in the middle, batting for his favourite player. If he loses, the Ganguly chapter is well and truly over."
