Mr Suresh Kalmadi has truly taken the definition of CWG and worked towards making the first two words come true for self. He decided the words common wealth are literal in nature and the money provided by the tax payers through the government are his to use. Well, it is common wealth.
However, he is still poor and CW has not given him any up-liftment by helping him to cross the poverty line. So he has decided to bid for hosting Olympics in 2015 so that he can further prosper. What an enterprising young man, embodying India's entrepreneurial spirit. Hats off Mr Minister.
Hope IIMs, Harvard and Insead are looking and will incorporate him as a case study for their entrepreneurial workshops.

Let it be
Once Buddha along with his disciples happened to pass a lake. They stopped
there and Buddha told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. Do get me some water from that lake there."The disciple walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed bullock cart crossing through the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy,very turbid. The disciple thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink!"
So he came back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink."After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The disciple obediently went back to the lake and found the mud was settled a bit but still not fit for drinking. He returned and informed Buddha about the same.
After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back.The disciple reached the lake to find the lake absolutely clean and clear with pure water in it. The mud had settled down and the water above it was crystal clear. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha.Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the disciple and said," See what you did to make the water clean...You just let it be....
and the mud settled down on its own - and you got clear water.Buddha continued "Your mind is also like that! When it is disturbed.....just let it be...... Give it a little time. It will settle down on its own.You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down......... It will happen. "It is effortless."
