Arihantism - Continued

After the wonderful opening song for the new religion Arihantism, I feel the need of defining some core values and principles around it so that my would-be followers could make more sense out of it.
One quick question for the readers, "Would it make sense to charge some membership fee to use and adopt it?" Too early to decide, eh? ..... Psssttt!!!! Leave it

Procrastination:

Doing things NOW is bad. Now is better when it is in the distant, unseeable future. Avoid doing work as much as possible. Push the deadlines as far as you can. Don't you feel the person who cares for it the most would eventually be doing it? Your goal should not be that person :)

Money precepts:

Heard of mind over matter? This is the next level - Money over matter. Be as much kanjoos as possible. Something like go away somewhere for a phone call saying Hello Hello when someone is paying for your movie tickets, look busy at restaurants and ask someone else to pay. Easier trick could be look other way when the waiter brings the cheque to the table.

Lesser Hard Work:

We are living in 21st century. There are already enough important things for us to remember around us. The lesser you know, more is the room in your head to remember your favorites.

Idol Worship:

I would really encourage this. Choose your own idols. My examples of good idols : Amrita Rao, Giselle Monteiro, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman. Bad idols could be anybody that works for a living.

Rituals and Festivals:

There would be festival starting every Friday night. Working on weekends would be considered intolerable. Taking baths is optional, especially on holidays. Daily rituals include watching TV & movies, reading senseless articles and discussing your personal idols.

Those who are somewhat impressed - I thank them. Since the making is in alpha phase, it surely needs some adjustments. You can send me an email if you are interested in knowing whats in store for the beta phase :)

P.S. I am also thinking of advertising strategies and some funky punchlines for my religion now. Credit again goes to the Aditya Kulkarni for bringing this up at first place
