Ask a Question – Interesting
July 31st, 2010 Posted in GD-PI
What question will you ask?
A person dies and is about to enter Hell but then God is so kind that gave him an option. There are 2 doors one leads to Hell and the other to heaven.
There are 2 guards sitting next each door and one of them always tells lie and the other always tells the truth.
God gave the option to man to ask only one question and decide which is the Heavens door and if he can get in he will remain in Heaven for ever.
So now the question is what did the person asked to the guards ?
or, What if this question is posed to you in an interview? What will be your response?
Post your answer. Check out other’s views.

Man should ask to gaurds,tell what other is saying when you are asking ‘which is Heavens door’?
To this question both of them give the same answer.
The heaven door is other one than told by them.

Man should ask:”If I ask you YESTERDAY ‘which is the door to heaven ,what you would have replied?”
Guard speaking truth will always point the same door
Guard speaking falls will think what his answer would have been if it was yesterday.It must be the door towards hell.But since the man is asking this question today and he has the compulsion to tell lie, he will point towards heaven!!!

Amit got it right, don’t believe em both or you’ll end up in hell.
