Alive Quote by Vikrmn: CA Vikram Verma
““In Devnagari (Hindi or Brahmi Script) there is a word called Poora which means complete. When a person passes away, the word used as a reference is Poora. It means the person has completed his journey. Everyone is incomplete while alive; death makes you complete. How great it is to be complete while you are alive?””
