Does not make much difference for a lay man.. but reading books is injurious for the intelligent.. just like the idiot box.. books too can make the mind numb and intellect dumb.. it curbs the original thinking and creativity.. Blessed are the genius who never read books.. Blessed are the dubious who ever read books... |

Knowledge is power, Knowledge is wealth ani antaaru. these power and wealth are just tools a person can use to put to either a constructive cause or a destructive cause. The ambition and inclination of a person usually dictates what he is going to do with the power and wealth at his disposal. In fact knowledge in the hands of a person with negative thoughts in mind has greater bad effects. Reading does not make you a better person, it only provides you opportunities to explore. the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada |

Elca, I think part of the reason why we don't like present day literature has to do with the fact that we are aging and there is a new generation coming up. I roll my eyes at my colleagues who are in their 50s and were swooning when they heard that Ellen Barkin was going to be in Ocean's 13. Same way I can't swoon at the 20 somethings that are in movies these days. And the teenagers these days are probably rolling their eyes are people who like Halle Berry or Brad Pitt. They consider them uncles and aunties. Literature always evolves. Whether we like it or not is a different story. |

 Pplsuck:You don't take advantage of the underlying benefit does not mean, the benfit does not exist......if you are analyzing and thinking for yourself, that only means you are not taking fullest advantage of the benefits of reading a book ani.......it doesnt necessarily need you to disagree with my list of benefits.....wot say you? chee.....inference and logics chadavakundaa untey baavundedi.....
May be I disagree with your definition of benefit to begin with If I have to list the benefits of a metre of wire , I do not think being able to strangle someone with it will appear on my list of benefits Being able to confuse/impress others may be a use books can be put to, but only if you have the need to do so - which implies a different underlying issue Psychology 101 I have not read Inference and logics so you have an advantage But believe me I can continue in this vein of parrying and wordplay forever, - have lots of practice with my boys However, the benefit of doing so here is debabtable, don't you think ?  aa chal ke tujhe main leke chalu ik aise gagan ke tale jahan gam bhi na ho, aansoo bhi na ho,bas pyaar hi pyaar pale |

Intolerance is a character trait - reading books or even higher education does not necessarily change that annadaniki ee DB pedda nidarsanam Like Guttonkay said reading gives you information - whether you use it well or not is individual choice  aa chal ke tujhe main leke chalu ik aise gagan ke tale jahan gam bhi na ho, aansoo bhi na ho,bas pyaar hi pyaar pale |

Books are supposed to inform you, whether you become a better person b'coz of what you read depends on you. You have to be able to practice what you read. That's why I never read self-help books. To be able to conscientious practice what I read is a little too hard for me. As for myself I consider books to be a window to the world. Some books literally make you want to be in that place, in that time. I read for that feeling, to see what I can't see physically, yet. |
