Manu crediting Bhagwat Geeta for her calmness. 

Next event, she will get lesser cheers now.

Nah, Geeta is respected all over the world unlike a certain other book which is associated with violence, lynching and death threats

Is there a single teaching of Geeta RSS follows? Associating it with that violent organization is an insult to Bhagwad Geeta. 

[deathmonger]

manu bhaker, manika batra, smriti mandhana - cuties of indian sport.

Has anyone read the quoran? 

I read bits and pieces. My friend who read it, reckons it actually endorses the idea of converting everyone into Muslims either through coercion or influence.

When is Manika Batra playing?

 

Also, any chances for Manu to get gold in 25m, given she got one at the World Championships last year?

Kicboxing judo taekwando

Wish we had proper trainers for judo and kicking. Lots of medals to win there.

I have observed that most top athletes are very religious, even Aussies and US swimmers, wrestlers, athletes. Brit ones too though theirs is largely a non-religious society these days.

Manika plays now.

 

In shooting all the top ppl are only separated by mental fortitude. One poor shot can end your chances. Anyone can win a gold. She def can.

with that logic lot more pakistani athletes would have qualified... i say in jest 

[Gollum]

Manu Bhaker is from Jhajjar. What is with these Haryanvis and Olympic medals, just 2.5 crores population that state but better than rest of India combined. Respect.

 I think they turn to religion after achieving a certain level in sports, maybe helps with mental toughness, to cope with bad results, injuries, to foster discipline etc. 

 

Pakistanis are brainwashed into being religious from a very young age.

May be they know there are a lot of things which not in their hands despite meticulous preparation.

[Gollum]

Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Gujarat, all rich states with surplus population...kuch seekho Haryana se. If more states start pulling their weight we can target 20+ medals. 

[MediumPacer]

Is this the earliest we got a medal.
