Introspect

I heard this name quite a lot, many a times thru friends and most of the time on internet and thru spam mails. It always looked interesting. I thought of trying the services for few months in 2006.

And I guess the time has come. On 10th October 2004 we leave the office in a qualis early morning and moved thru the city, that is Praveen, Harsha, Gururaj, Guruprasad, Maxmelbin, Chethan and me – Sathya. First halt was near my house at Tom’s Café. Where we packed a lot to eat and definitely not to mention the booze {since we did not have the bottlenecks – the GIRLS…} it was fun. We reached the city of Sakleshpur at around 8:00 in the evening and sought retreat in a small but pleasant hotel and when day turned tiresome and all felt sleepy the guru-n-guru picks the pa
