			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received an odd email today which consisted solely of:</p>
<blockquote><p>Call out Gouranga be happy!!!<br />
Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga &#8230;.<br />
That which brings the highest happiness!!</p></blockquote>
<p>A little Googling, and apparently <i>gouranga</i> is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gouranga">a Hare Krishna term for happiness</a>, also used in the sense of &#8220;be happy&#8221; and is mysteriously <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gouranga">scrawled on bridges</a> in the UK.  (Hmm, reminds me of the &#8220;Anzel is Love&#8221; signs someone plastered all over <abbr title="University of California at Irvine">UCI</abbr> for a few weeks in the mid-1990s.)</p>
<p>It also seems that the <a href="http://www.juju.org/archives/2003/04/06/call-out-gouranga-be-happy">gouranga spam has been around</a> a while.</p>
