I spent like 2 hours there, just browsing books, and trying to reach a decision on which books to select to fit my then limited budget. Im definitely going back there during my next bangalore trip, this time with a considerably fatter wallet.
While i was looking thru the books, i came across this interesting book, the name of which i unfortunately don't remember, but whose summary, like of so many others, i read. It posed an interesting question:
What would be the one piece of wisdom/knowledge/contribution you would give to the world, if you knew these were your last few moments on earth ?

Oh, what I'd say is what they possibly don't teach in books and classrooms:
"In the end, you are defined by how much you loved and how much you cared. To heck with it, even through your life you are defined by the same. Your happiness comes from the same, your identity comes from the same. I know about Newton and Einstein today, but do I love them? No. Do I love Mother Teresa? Yes. (And that's not a Miss/Mr. World answer but the truth). Your compassion can change a million lives, including yours. Live for people and not commodities; that's the only thing that makes sense.
i'd say..
