not, because very rarely have we been invited to a
wedding ceremony that is other than a formal and a
well-mannered event. Our familiarization with the
wedding ceremony, however, is in sharp contrast
with the traditional marriage ceremony of the
Momna community, a minority group in eastern
Pakistan from where I come. In this community, the
marriage ceremony lasts for two days, with rituals
that are not only unique, but extremely amusing,

Thirty Five Five Children

The first wedding that I planned was in no way a
traditional wedding. Ten eager little girls
decorated the printed invitations with sequins,
buttons, and markers. The same energetic hands
prepared the wedding feast, consisting of bagged
lunches, blintz souffl, and of course a layer
cake. On the big day I looked around with
excitement. Again, I noticed something odd about
this wedding. All the participants and guests
appeared about four feet high. The "groom" had
long hair pinned up with brown li...

Nation Of Israel Jesus Christ

Philosophy of Religion There are two very simple
and easy facts. One of them is felt by reverence
and the other by experience. The fact which is
felt by reverence is that god always pervades
everywhere without any change. Several ages pass
away, several Brahmas (creators of god) change,
but the supreme essence remains the same. The fact
which is felt by experience is that the whole
world is kaleidoscopic; it is changing every
moment and is turning to naught. Thus there are
two facts: 1) God who ...
