Q1         What is the shocking truth of Hanuman?

A1          Sushil Kumar,Sep 12

Thereis no "shockingtruth" about Hanuman. He is a complex and multifaceted 
figure, andthere are many different stories and interpretations of him. 
However, some ofthe more "interesting" aspects of his story include:

He has a disfigured jaw. This isbecause he once mistookthe sun for a ripe mango 
and tried to eat it. The god Indra was angered by thisand struck Hanuman with 
his thunderbolt, which damaged his jaw.

He is said to have the ability tochange his size. He cangrow to be as large as 
a mountain or shrink to the size of an insect.

He is a powerful warrior, but he isalso known for hiscompassion and his 
devotion to Lord Rama.

He is often depicted as having a monkeyface, but this is not entirelyaccurate. 
In some early texts, he is described as having a human face.

Ultimately,the truth of Hanuman is whatever you believe it to be. He is a 
popular and beloved figure in Hinduism, andhis story has been told and retold 
for centuries. There is no one rightor wrong way to understand him.

Hereare some other interesting facts about Hanuman:

Heis the son of Vayu, the wind god.

theRamayana.

He is known for his strength, speed,and intelligence.

He is also known for his devotion to Ramaand his willingness to sacrifice 
himself for his lord.

Q2         What is the most famous two-faced manin history?

A2         Start Sameer, Business Coach, DigitalBusiness20h

The story of Osama bin Laden is reallyinteresting. He was born into an 
incredibly richfamily, which means he could havehad anything he wanted – fancy 
cars, great food, and attractive partners.

But instead of enjoying a life of luxury,he chose a different path. He went to 
Afghanistan and joined a group offighters called the 'mujahedeen.'

He risked his life fighting againstRussian soldiers, even though he had no 
connection to Afghanistan. For years, he was seen as a hero because ofthis. He 
led attacks on Russian convoys with his group, using old, worn-out guns, going 
hungry, anddodging bullets under the hot sun.

Eventually, the mujahedeen succeeded, and Afghanistan was freed whenthe Russian 
soldiers left.

But then things got really bad. TheTaliban took control of Kabul, the capital 
of Afghanistan, and the country fellinto a dark and difficult time, almostlike 
the Middle Ages. Things went downhill fast.

It'seasy to forget that back in the day, the Afghan rebels and their 
internationalsupporters were popular. Even Sylvester Stallone's third Rambo 
movie wasdedicated to these brave fighters.

But here's something you might notknow: Osama bin Laden and his fellow rebels 
were once helped a lot by theUnited States military and the CIA.Looking back, 
it was abig mistake, and one of historical significance.

So,Osama bin Laden went from being a very wealthy person to becoming a kind 
ofArab hero, and then he turned into a ruthless terrorist who caused alot of 
chaos and destruction in the world and his region. It's quite a dramaticstory.

Q5         What is an incident that changed yourlife?

A5         Manya, Quora writer 2y

It happened back in 2019. A young, tall manwith a black coat and pantentered 
our class around 6th period, just after lunch break. Although, we all were 
halfsleepy after eating lunch, his perfume smell was so strong that we 
becameconscious immediately xD He dressed in the same way:

Everyonein the class: Its maths class, where is Rajesh sir? Who is he? Why he 
is comingin our class?

All the students were confused as it wastotally unfamiliar face. While everyone 
was talking and discussing, he wasstanding in front of the first bench, smiling 
towards all students. He didn't uttered a single word. After 2–3minutes, there 
was silence all around the class. 

With a bright smile he introducedhimself. “I am Gaurav Oberoi, a 32 year old 
man.You all were busy discussing about who I am, right? But none of you tried 
toeven ask my name. It's Ok! Now, you all be thinking why I am here instead of 
Rajeshsir, your principal ma'amhas given me opportunity to talk to you people, 
to share myexperience/thoughts with you, to boost your self esteem and 
confidence to facethe world in coming years. As, I am an influencer.” We were 
all astonished andstunned. 

Hecontinued “You 6th bench, stand up”. One of my classmate stood up. He 
said“Tell me your weakest point”. My classmate responded- Sir, am not at all 
goodin maths, and my parents always compare me with my cousins. They say me 
tostudy more and more, but after doing all the efforts, I can't improve 
myself.They say that I'm useless, i am a burden on them. It feels 
depressingsometimes.

Hetold him to sit on the bench. 

Suddenly, he started finding something inhis pocket. He took a 500 note out 
from his pocket. We all were like “What heis going to do?”

Mr.Oberoi: Raise your hand, if you want this 500 note.

*Slowly,everyone started raising their hand*

Mr.Oberoi: Cool, but one minute.

*He started folding it in an unmanneredway. We could see lines on the note.*

Mr.Oberoi: Now, who wants it?

*AllHands were up*

Mr.Oberoi: Ok! Ok!

*He again started moulding it in anunpleasant way*

Mr.Oberoi: Who still wants it?

*Everyone'shand was up*

Mr.Oberoi: *Smiling* Thisis what I wanted to convey to you people. 

Youare just like that 500 rupees note. You are precious, doesn't matter 
ifeverything is not going in the way you have planned. There will be many 
times,when you are not in your best condition, but remember you are not useless.

Youstill raised your hands after the moulding of this 500 note because you 
wereknowing that it's value will not decrease.That's just you. Remember, youare 
worthy. No one can replace you or decrease your value!!

Weall were overwhelmed by his great response. I eventually gained respect 
forhim.He taught a great lessonto all of us! :)
