I thought one was able to send a private reply, but I see no such way to do it, so...

Hitesh, with my very short term memory, I really kinda hate it that we can't reply to somewhile seeing what they wrote, or the exact name. When I go back & forward enough this site just drops what I've written and the cycle begins again. Thanks Hitesh

But then again, who knows what their conception or perspective on knowledgeable, honesty, intelligence, loyalty or disciplined is?!?

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.” William Shakespeare .

Wiki links shares something like below.

Quote:
Hitesh is a common Hindu masculine given name used in Indian subcontinent. The name literally means "one who thinks well of everyone.or Lord of goodness." Thus Hitesh means well wisher. The name itself suggests the meaning in Hindi, i.e., "Hit" हित means to do and thinks good for others and "esh" ईश means ishwar or God.

Here "esh" is customary attachment in names without any real significance. And I suppose most parent name their childs probably more out of fashion/trends than for any meaning.
I am living in Mumbai, India only.

I used 'supposedly' because intelligent people are not really intelligent if they are unable to know how their intelligence is minuscule in front universe and how easily get trapped in ego-trap (of Maya/Setan)

Here Sir Isaac Newton's following quote may be relevant.
Quote:
I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

Same way supposedly good people are not really good if they dont care to improve upon knowledge, honesty, intelligence, loyalty or discipline etc

Again here knowing and perception has little role . There has to be continuous genuine desire and effort to improve upon what we were yesterday without indulging much in comparisons . Yes we may take inspirations from great people 's biography as a booster in adequate dozes .
