1. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate:

   I often think that each time an artist paints a beautiful portrait, a writer creates a masterpiece in literature, a scientist invents a major breakthrough, all of these creations originate and emerge straight from the heart, with enormous love and tremendous passion, And yet the artist, the writer and the scientist are merely the bystanders, the onlookers, and the spectators of the amazing process of creation....just like a mother giving birth to a beautiful baby. We all live and strive for that moment of creation, the moment that fulfills one's life and makes it complete, total and meaningful. That's why the creattion and continuation of life stream are the greatest achievements in human life, in my view.
