I will probabl understand life, when I find the right answer for the following questions............ Why does Anand Kumar of the Super 30 fame from Bihar, who has trained 267 poorest of the poor students to enter Indias most prestigious institution - Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), refuse to take government or private help? Why does Ratan Tata, who has enough money to live a super comfortable life, work even after he has crossed 75 years of age? Why did Steve Jobs, who had enough money to retire forever, create an iPod, an iPad, an iPhone? Why did Sister Agnes ( Mother Teresa ) trudge through the stinking by-lanes of Kolkata searching for diseased destitutes, even when it meant exposing herself to diseases, harm and ridicule? Why do Bill and Melinda Gates visit poverty stricken, disease infested parts of Africa when they can be sunning themselves on the beaches of Hawaii? Why did Rabindranath Tagore, with the risk of being hunted, return Knighthood to the British Empire after the Jallianwalabagh massacre even as the British ruled his homeland? Why does a Sundarlal Bahuguna undertake a 5000 km trans-Himalayan march to save the forests and the ecology of that part of our country saying, Ecology is the permanent economy? Why does he politely refuse the Padma Shree by the Govt of India saying, I do not deserve it till flesh and blood (top soil) of India was flowing down to the sea? Why does Nandan Nilekani, with about Rs 1.4 Billion as his wealth, become a public servant and assume charge of an audacious task (Aadhaar cards) as the chairman of Unique Identification Authority of India? :( :)
