Hi Ms/Mr Graceful First: you claim to be graceful. But the impression you give my simple mind is otherwise. >>"a man whose self-improvement bestsellers like >>You Can Win and Living With Honour have been >>translated into four Asian and nine Indian languages" Well, if plagiarism could make me an author even half as celebrated as Shiv Khera I would take to pliagiarism yesterday. You have to concede the fact that shiv khera is gifted. For a book to be translated in four Asian languages and nine Indian languages is certainly not just an accidental Lal or Popotlal joke. I had read somewhere about a beautiful lark that sold its feathers to a farmer for easy worms but I couldn't remember where I had read it or who had told me about it, until (a good seven months after my book Naked Goa was published) a friend told me it is from Shiv Khera's book You Can Win. And Naked Goa begins with the lark story. Today, if Shiv Khera says (while he is in Goa)that he is going to sue me for using an anecdote from his book I will tell him to go to the court or go to hell and meet the devil. My knowledge is f****** my knowldge and I don't maintain a bibliography of how I get it -- reading, listening or hearing. Of course I am aware that my book would certainly sound more authentic with a neat bibliography as in a ph d thesis. But Naked Goa is Naked Goa. Just musings of a troubled soul. (Hey Graceful I will offer you a free copy of Naked Goa -- if you tell me where I can post it) With best regards and without malice.
