This blog's Aatma (soul) revolves around my passions - Life, Spirituality, Knowledge Management (KM) and Nonsense . Ergo, join me in my continuous quest to lead a better life, be a better human being, gain knowledge on the dynamics of knowledge and, well, just enjoy a key dimension of life, respectively....! ;-) PS: Why Nonsense? Because, at times, it makes more sense! On second thoughts, that's a lie....it's just that I love being nonsensical! ;-)

Hero Worship
Reading about Lance Armstrong reminds me of something that occurred to me in June....earlier this year (but I don't recall the context).
"When companies or people are almost worshiped, they either die trying to justify the reputation or resort to unbelievable tactics"
I agree with the quote and seems to demonstrate a fallacy within human beings whereby they want to attain immortality. Since they are already being worshipped they assume that they are bigger than God and ultimately that obsession with attaining supernatural success ultimately becomes their own undoing! And when they fall, we blame them when it us who should be blamed for elevating them to such great heights in the first place! www.allianceonemumbai.com
