Sri Sri decided that somehow he is eligible for a nobel prize. And that somehow he will refuse it. Alice in wonderland

Inspired by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s refusal to accept a Nobel Prize, I have just rejected the Lifetime Achievement Oscar for 2016.

I think that Sri Sri rejected the Nobel because they were giving him just one. He wanted a title like Sri Sri Nobel Nobel Ravishankar

Sid,
Nobel committee rarely comments on who it shortlists or not; @SriSri aware that his bluff wont be called 👏🙏 https://t.co/CX4626XDJX— Akash Banerjee (@akashbanerjee) May 2, 2016
