Chanting the Hare Krishna Mantra

Today, I thought I'd write about chanting the mahamantra or the Hare Krishna mantra.

The Hare Krishna Mantra:
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare

1 round of chanting means repeating the above 16 words or the mantra 108 times. This is called a japa.

AND AGAIN!

What's the world coming to?!

Oh, the insanity!

I don't understand Arabic, ya lahwy!

But maybe I'll actually read one of these Arabic blogs. I'm trying to learn Arabic... Maybe it'll help?

AI CARAMBA!

I thought I'd check out some other blogs from my Global Dashboard today. I like it when people read my blog from there and so I have decided to occasionally go on it and return the favour. But there was a little surprise for me in store. Here's a screenshot:

How to Lose Weight

It's the weekend! And this weekend is going to last 7 days! FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABulous! Eid is on Sunday and so we have a wonderfully long holiday.

Aah...

So anyway, I thought I'd blog about the workout routine and diet I followed to lose weight. Here goes:

A View from the Metro

It's been an interesting two weeks, what with the new Dubai Metro and all. I have to say, though, Dubai did a really good job. The objective was to have the train up and running and ready for passengers on 09.09.09 at 09.09.09 PM. And that is exactly what happened. The fares are also reasonable but the Student Card is the BOMB. The fares are really cheap and it's really good for us students. Boy, is it fast. It takes about 19 minutes to cover a distance that would take around 40 minutes by car. And there's no Salik toll! Faaaaaaabulous. There are, however, some kinks in the system.

Meanwhile...

Hello to my 2 and a half readers. I haven't blogged in over a week. And my blog hits have barely changed.

Blasphemy.
