| Introduction | Satya's a student doing Physics in Nanyang Technological University. He's spent most of his life in Melaka, and claims this to be his hometown much to the dismay of the Melakan public. He’s a proud Anak Bangsa Malaysia despite the best efforts of the government. He’s pretty much sold his soul to debates now (and pays the price willingly!). He's single, available and thinks himself rather dashing, though he's found this view is not shared by most of his friends, acquaintances, and the general public. He wants to learn about other religions and strengthen his knowledge of his own. He loves physics. He thinks science and spirituality can go hand in hand to help us understand God and the universe. He thinks a closed mind is like a closed door, not allowing traffic either way, so he tries to keep his open. He thinks we live in a sadly messed up world, and we should do our part to make it better. He doesn't claim to have much success (yet) on this front. He's a fun-loving guy, and just another traveler on the journey of life. He'd like to dedicate this to his parents, friends, and everyone he respects. He hopes the rain in Spain will continue to stay mainly on the plain. |
