Guest guest Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Why only material, there are spiritual freebies too. Its not ek pe ek but ek pe laakhon, ek pe croreon free !! Eg. You fast on one ekadashi day, millions of sinful reactions from millions of past births are nullified. Even God gives us bonus days. IN THE BRAHMA-VAIVARTA PURANA( said by Lord Brahma) IT IS SAID THAT ONE WHO OBSERVES FASTING ON EKADASI DAY IS FREED FROM ALL KINDS OF REACTIONS TO SINFUL ACTIVITIES AND ADVANCES IN PIOUS LIFE. TO OBSERVE EKADASI-VRATA MEANS TO PLEASE THE SUPREME PERSONALITY OF GODHEAD. Also there are negative freebies, ek se shunya- IF ONE PERFORMS THE SRADDHA CEREMONY OF OBLATIONS TO THE FOREFATHERS ON THE EKADASI TITHI, THEN THE PERFORMER, THE FOREFATHERS FOR WHOM THE SRADDHA IS OBSERVED, AND THE PUROHITA, OR THE FAMILY PRIEST WHO ENCOURAGES THE CEREMONY, ALL GO TO HELL.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 At first I got confused with the title. Ek pee ek free ? ( pee means you know what ) Ek peeke free ? As far as your story Kishoreda like always it was hilarious with the hidden meanings being the freebies ;-) Ashok 1984 Sent from my iPad > Ek pe ek free! > > No matter which newspaper you open today, you cannot miss the advertisements > telling you that you will get one free with one.

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Lol very nicely put........kishore da............Well as you say I live in a country where there are always sales a galore..........and ek pe ek free schemes are available even for wives...........and we all have amusing tales to tell........ regards aasawari91 sometimes I pity zafar ( Sic) when he has to defend that he has only one wife and it is his choice for life............thank god my in-laws  belong to that school of thought........ ________________________________ To: Undisclosed-Recipient@... Sent: Saturday, 23 June 2012 5:55 PM Subject: Ek pe ek free!  Ek pe ek free! No matter which newspaper you open today, you cannot miss the advertisements telling you that you will get one free with one. Irresistible offers which you can't escape. I was lured by one such ad which claimed to give six pieces of cookware at an incredible price of 1500 bucks. Each was worth at least 400 apiece! When I asked to see the ware, the shopkeeper, with much fanfare, plunked three fry pans on the counter. I was mystified. I know I didn't score very high in my school math's exam, but I could safely count till three. " Excuse me, but these are only three fry pans? " " Yeah! And each has its own glass lid. That makes it six pieces! " " But that's like the doctor saying that he has delivered the baby, but delivering the limbs of the baby will be extra! " " Of course, they charge you for that! That is why it costs an arm and a leg to deliver a baby, though all the 'mehanat' is done by you. " I could not fault him his logic. He continued, " When you buy a mobile phone, don't they say that the headphones, instruction manual and charger are free with the phone. Aren't they actually a part of the whole deal and should not be counted as free? " Again: Faultless logic. I kept thinking, yes, I have been getting these free deals my whole life. When I married, I got a mother-in-law and father-in-law free as a package deal. There was an added bonus of a few sisters-in-law and a brother-in-law thrown in. Of course, the father-in-law was a limited period offer, because he was quite old. As I trudged home with my 'six' pieces of cookware, I decided to write an article about this, but along with it, I would offer my readers the title absolutely free. As an added bonus you get the author's name also free. But it is a limited time offer. Kishore Shah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
