North Korea & India: Drawing parallels between the two worlds

2011-12-22T01:20:00.001+05:30

Happened to revisit a old you tube video on North Korea. Very long documentary but worth watching

I feel sorry for the poor souls who are starving because of a regime that wants tight control on its people. Now that their 2nd great leader, Kim Jong Il is summoned by Gods to help them in their heavenly abode(well propaganda machina can create and destroy any thing out of blue) , I pray that those tormented souls in North Korea get some food to eat, place to live and basic medical facilities in the new regime.

Assuming you watched this video and understood the propaganda work, let us consider a more Indian scenario. Our very own great leader , first prime minister of India loves children very much and hence we celebrate 14th Nov every year as 'Children's day'. Out of the 7 years of my schooling, I have never read a instance of our beloved leader being interested in Children's business. These are the very textbooks our government prepared to educate the future of India carefully editing out the unwanted and uncomfortable history. Then why isn't even a single instance of how our beloved leader loved kids elucidated in those books. The way this propaganda machinery deviced this beautiful tale makes me wonder : Are we any different from those people living their lives cut off from the world , believing the words from the books on their face value?.

May be I know too little ! Any comments and references to this are most welcome.

Beauty of Brotherhood: Lessons from Ramayana

2011-12-21T00:22:00.000+05:30

Bhadrachalam is a small temple town on the banks of river Godavari. The town is known for 'Kondanda Ramalayam', a temple dedicated to Sri Rama. One striking feature of this temple is that Lakshmana is on the left side of Rama. A small background story for this elucidates how much Rama cared for his brother Lakshmana.

Once sage Bhadra performed deep penance for Lord Rama. Pleased with his penance Vishnu in his full form came before him and asked to wish for anything he wants. Bhadra solemnly refused Lord Vishnu's form and said politely that he wasn't expecting Vishnu in Vishnu's form and that he is seeking Rama even though it is quite evident that Rama is an avatar of Lord Vishnu. Rama hurriedly appeared before him along with Sita and Lakshmana. Even when he is rushing to a demanding bhakta, Rama never forgot taking his brother with him. One could clearly note that Lakshmana is standing on the left side unlike the traditional right side of Rama, a place where Lakshmana is always seen. Even though Bhadra din't specifically ask for Lakshmana, Rama and Lakshmana are one package. They cannot be separated. Wherever Rama goes Lakshmana will be there.

A picture of the place and its history can be seen here

Anna Hazare & India against Corruption

2011-08-29T16:55:00.000+05:30

It is quite evident that Anna Hazare's movement has motivated the common man (Aam aadmi for INC). There is no denying that the Indian public in general was irritated with the corruption and seek a corruption free society . The other day I saw a BMTC vajra bus driver fancying Gandhi topi and a tricolor on the forehead like a tilak. I am quite surprised at the breadth of the campaign. I see two obvious benefits here:

1. The INC (and hence UPA2.0) which took Indian public for granted was challenged on a large scale from the sessions of parliament to the streets of India

2.People who were insensitive to issues of national importance came out in large numbers for the first time to address the corruption. Well if the proposed Janlokpal bill will have its desired ends or not is for the time to decide, what is appreciable is the participation of people from all walks of life.

The side effects caused by the movement that I hate the most are

1. Candle light protests spread to a wider group (sic). What you get of candle light protests is something I could not comprehend! But my liberal friends tell me that I am an right wing engineer and hence could not understand the soul and spirit of protest.
2. Every weekend I have to face a heavy traffic jam because of the protests everywhere

Chanakya: The Forgotten Hero

2009-04-11T11:06:00.002+05:30

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
CAUTION: This series of posts may contain highly explosive truth from the annals of history, now lost or forgot.
User Discretion is advised
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Two thousand three hundred years ago, when things are not much different, when the sanatana dharma is made fun of , India gave birth to a visionary and a scholar who had the capacity to unite entire "Bharat Varsha" under one flag. He is VishnuGupt.Popularly known as Chanakya(after his father's name - Acharya Chanak) and Kautilya( for his plans, hardly understood even by the wisest until they are executed)

VishnuGupt is born in the great ancient city of Pataliputr(present day Patna) in a Hindu Brahmin family. His father is a acharya(loosely related to current day professor) of political sciences.

It was rightly said "Path of righteousness is full of thorns". It is the time when Buddhism and Jainism are growing at rapid pace. People are divided due to regional and sectoral politics. System of soveriegn states is plagued with problems. "Bharat" is dead meat on open savannah, inviting external elements for an attack.Unfortunately for the rest of the world and fortunately for India it is the time Alexander started his conquest to win the entire world(not much different from the British Conquest-- but British are proper assholes and lacked any morality which Alexander might have possessed). The biggest of the soveriegn states is "Magadha" ruled by dhanananda, a greedy sneeky chicken hearted king. His rule is marked by levying of silly stupid taxes on people,

Being a Software Engineer

2009-02-06T11:44:00.002+05:30

1. Don't try to think. It is not in your jurisdiction
2. Do not expect a social life. Forget you had one
3. Do not start with crazy things like going to gym or attending yoga classes. You are bound to discontinue them in due course of time
4. Forgetting is a common attribute of software engineer and you must be proud of it ( If you still remember something then your are abnormal. Try and spend some quality time in office to get rid of the problem)
5.Now that you are a software engineer, you are bound to suffer and endure great pain. Make it your passion.

HastinaPura Unveiled

2009-01-26T19:37:00.004+05:30

I happened to see a feature/documentary made by some french production company on Discovery Israel about the HastinaPura City. HastinaPura is a small town in Central India. Prof. B.B Lal , Retired Head of Archealogical Survey of India conducted a series of excavations of in and around the current day Hastinapura immediately after India got its Independence in 1950 after 200 years of sadistic,cruel tyranny of British regime and 1000yrs of barbaric and trecherous muslim invasions.

Their guide is Vyasa virachita Mahabharatam. They dug trenches at various places and to their excitement found a whole new city underneath the existing town which is much bigger than the existing one on the top at a level which almost dates to the time of Lord Krishna.

Movie Review: Curious Case of Benjiman Button

2009-01-06T17:39:00.003+05:30

Last Weekend I happened to watch curious case of benjiman button. The story is quite exciting and the cast performed very well. Imagine if a person is born old and ages in the reverse direction. Great show by Brad Pitt. His acting is in this feature will stand as his personal best.

Thought provoking movie which shows the importance of time, strength and what life has to offer.
High chance of winning an oscar.

Are we Afraid to accept the Reality

2009-01-06T12:30:00.002+05:30

I was in Israel when the terrorist attacks on Mumbai happened. I was dumb struck when I learnt that a bunch of them rushed into our land through sea and sieged two of the finest hotels in India and a Jewish Center. What later followed is a hostage crisis which lasted for 72 hrs, first commando rescue operation in independent India and a great feast for Media.

When it is all over, the bitterness of reality started to show up. Is India in a position to fend these sort of outrage? Is India prepared ??. After thinking about this for for quite a while - the answer i got is not at all. (Please let me know if you think otherwise). Millions of forwards flooded the internet about the terrorist acts and heroism of our people. Status popped up on almost all kinds of messangers about the incident.

After the incident mumbai is listed on the top 10 dreaded places on earth for tourists. Israel being first on the list. I had a chance to stay in Israel for 3 months and the internal security there is wonderful. Infact I felt it is much safer there than in our cities. Israel is surrounded by 7 hostile nations. Still they are keeping them at bay and leading a peacful and prosperous life.

Whats with the internal security in India? Who cares as long as the politicians keep their votebanks safe. Who want if some 10 people die in a bomb explosion by an islamic terrorist. What difference does 10 make to 1billion people. Even after continous attacks by the terrorists, why the prime minister repeats the same speech in his address to the nation ? Probably he is asking for more. Unless we show the world of terrorism that we are hard on it, it keeps coming to us and take thousands of innocent lives. Right from the start of Jihad by islamic groups in 792 AD , their main motto is to eliminate people who dont believe in allah. Should we let this continue until they eliminate us all.

India has the third largest standing army( after PRC and United States). We spend around $1.1 bn alone on buying russian weapons every year. But are our soldiers properly trained to handle the modern arsenal? Negative. How secure are our waters?. Is spending $2bn a year difficult for a country of 1billion on upgrading and training its security personnel. Why the govt is not using the high tech surveillance satellites to trace and track the terrorist outfits. All we need is a political will to do the things right.

Festival Environment: Striking differences between India and Israel

2008-10-10T20:56:00.000+05:30

If the day is Friday and the clock shows 5,all the shops in Israel (excluding few owned by Arabs) are closed till Sunday Morning. In fact you don't see many people on roads. If it is a Jewish festival, then the situation is even worse. I happened to see two festivals, 'The Jewish New Year' and 'Yom Kippur', the fasting festival and I am stunned to see the striking contrast between Indian and Jewish way of celebrations.

You would find more people on an Indian road and more shops open in India even when 144 section is in vogue than the day of Yom Kippur(is festival of torture where people torture themselves by fasting : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yom_Kippur). It is like a self declared curfew.

Peeping more into the people's culture by talking to more people here I found that it is not that these guys are socially together but most of the festivals here are related to family and they try and be with their family on those days. Different cultures have different ways of seeing things.

Israel Travel

2008-09-29T14:21:00.000+05:30

Junta,

I ll pen down my IL experiences here.

I reached Chatrapathi Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Mumbai at around 19:50 hrs IST, 26 SEP 2008, about 15 mins delayed landing due to rain on the stipulated way from Benguluru International Airport by Jet Airways, Boeing 737-800.On board they served a hot bread with corn dressing and coffee. Here I should say something about CSIA. It is so big that you cannot compare BIA with it. Folks back in Bangalore felt BIA is quite a big and good airport. But it is no match even for the CSIA's local terminal for local flights.

We( Passengers having an international connect) are taken to the International terminal by a Volvo Bus (Courtesy : Airports Authority of India). One thing I observed was most of the junta are flying to US( Jersey, newark, boston etc etc..) . Probably I am the only one flying to Israel from mumbai. I went to the Austrian airways terminal and waited for the staff to turnup. The counter started at 21:00hrs IST. I took my boarding pass to wien(vienna in german) and then from wien to Tel Aviv Yafo. I asked for a through check in ( I learnt a few days ago that with through checkin I can collect my luggage at the final destination. This relieves me of managing my luggage for connecting flights). I went through the immigration process in mumbai and then waited near gate 7 and had 2 veg sandwiches ( now for people who know my food habits, this is a surprise. It even surprised me). Sankardada style "If horse hungry, eats dry grass".

I waited till 00:30 hrs,27 Sep 2008 for the boarding. One problem with indians is that people back here don't believe there own people. I don't remember how many times i have shown my passport and visa stamping ( but in austria and IL i was not asked for them except at security check). Whites are still respected with highest honor in india even after 60 yrs of independence.

I got onto my flight (Austrian Airways,Boeing 737-900 I guess). The flight is quite good and I fortunately I got the first seat in middle row( So , I have more leg space). There is dedicated LCD monitor for each passenger. They served a late night dinner and break fast in the morning. I should also appreciate efforts of our office travel desk for ordering Asian Veg meal for me, if not I can't imagine wat my situation would be. The best part of austrian airways is that u have sexy (sex bomb:P) hostesses and they served all varieties of drinks on the plane. Being a sane person, I humbly took coke.

Repurcussions of Ex-Slave

2008-08-27T16:30:00.000+05:30

When I heard that "I Can Understand the most complex of Math but I can't understand Women" from the mouth of a philosopher, I was really wondering what does he really mean by saying so.

Today morning, I happened to take an early cab to my company(for which I later regretted) and there are around 5 women and a ChOM gentleman. By the time I got in they were in the middle of a heated discussion about yet another lady planning to do her higher studies. They were all praising her for intelligence, decision making skills etc. Then all of sudden they were scolding her for inept ways etc. The also brought their college days and discussed what they would do if they were in such a situation. By this time cab reached Tin factory and every one who travelled on outer ring road know abt the contention at tin factory. They realised that the cab is stuck in a traffic jam even though they are engaged in serious discussion. Then they started cursing traffic jams. The cab has'nt even moved completely out of jam and they started cursing driver for his slow and sloppy driving and went on discussing and cursing what ever they liked. By this time I am too pissed off to listen and remember what they were cursing.

My Team lead says I am an optimist. One good thing about the discussion is they touched mostly political,social and educational issues unlike touching upon the eating habits of their 4year old kid or the best dress sale.

Matrix Effect

2008-07-30T12:11:00.001+05:30

I watched Matrix for 30th or 40th time last night. It was as fresh as it was when I saw it first time. Once I am done with the movie I wondered how different is current day India from the movie.People born into emotional, cultural, social, political and economic bondage, but they think they are free or the program(the western master minds) makes them think like that. Our leaders don't care for the benefits of the country, doesn't bother about our culture. Every one of us are force fed with western ideologies and thinking the eastern way is out of fashion. It seems to me like a game of chess where all of us part of it and every move is precounted by the players. I remember when this game started, some 400yrs ago when Europeans came to India. Society lost its values. Spread of Christianity, devaluation of Indian(Hindu) thought in the eyes of sleeping Indian(ofcourse World)masses , gaining complete control over India are the prime goals of this program. People in the want of materialistic benefits started being indifferent which eventually led to what I call the Matrix Effect. The only elixir to this to wake up the one with in ourselves and protect our nation.

Thanks To England

2008-07-24T11:29:00.000+05:30

Brothers and sisters of my country, it is the fundamental duty of every citizen of this country to thank eNGLAND(Pun Intended) atleast once a day. We have to do this because Father of our Nation Migister Mahatma Gandhi ,Migister Jawharlal Nehru, our role models did it their entire life.

Romani people are second grade citizens in many parts of the world as they don't belong to those places. We are second grade citizens even in India, our Motherland and who is responsible for this (+20,-10 at this stage).Exactly we are responsible for this calamity(+20).

Then raises the basic question in every Inquistive Indian mind(if there are any left out from the brain wash done at the Anglias fed schools), why should we thank them? My friend has a simple way of finding answers, if you got to find the answer go to the roots. The answer is quite evident there... Coz they ruled us for 200yrs(officially.. i say 400).We should thank them for destroying our age old temples as in the modern world temples are no longer regarded as places of worship.
We should thank them for introduction of christianity because christianity is ianity but Hinduism is ism. We should thank them for showing our farmers, artisans what poverty is and make us feel the meaning of life. We should thank them for showing how inferior we could think of ourselves. We should thank them because they give us trade if we praise them and agree that we are inferior to them. We should thank them as they were praised by Rabindranath Tagore in gitanjali.

Nuke Deal gets Go

2008-07-23T13:41:00.000+05:30

Nuke deal gets the GO from Indian parliament( ohh I am sorry I should say from cong. party and Hawala brokers like Amar singh as there is no such parliament system now).

US gets the green flag to unravel its plan for getting India under its control. Petty politicians (esp. the cong.) under its able Italian leader turn a deaf ear to this. India already have nuclear technology. It even have a fast breeder reactor. Many of Indian scientists are in US now working their asses of. It is the result of their work we are going to get back now with hell lot of conditions. Had it not been for these unwanted reservations in every field (including sensitive defense and national security issues) they would have served India. Russia is willing to give India a unconditional support on nuclear technology for power. WTF??? Nuclear technology is nuclear technology whether it is from Russia or from US.

I suspect the top UPA leaders might have got billions of dollars for pushing the deal and letting US companies( Trivia: Three fourth of the world's oil at first hand is marketed by GW Bush Associates) rule the Indian Power Industry.

Plight of a City: Bangalore Contd.

2008-07-22T10:46:00.000+05:30

There are around 900 Engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamilnadu which produce around 4 lakh engineering graduates every year. For most of them the dream destination is Bangalore closely followed by Hyderabad and Chennai. Every year around 1 lakh engineers come to Bangalore either for pursuing their job or in search of their job. Assuming 40% of the inflow gets settled in a decent job in 2yrs( a pessimistic score. Actual averages are much higher) , their families start coming to the city which accounts to around 3*0.4*1lakh =1.2 lakh, a quite alarming number for any city.

Vivekanand Sharma, a friend of mine told me that there are around 400 lakes in and around Bangalore some 10 years back. There are now 80 lakes and most of them are dying.This created huge problem for water. There is old bangalorian saying "It rains every evening in Bangalore", which is actually the case in Bangalore. Even this can't save the ground water table of the city from dipping to alarmingly low levels.

With the flux of IT companies and inflow of people, there is need for wider roads and huge housing projects. This resulted in cutting down of trees, which are traditionally part of bangalore ("Green Bangalore").

As far as I could see, there are 3 major problems
1. Pollution: Both Environmental and Sound forms due to increase in motor vehicles and human activity (improper disposal of wastes, increase in co2 levels etc).
2. Huge Pressure on Natural Resources: this increased the prices of the essential commodities which makes it the costly place in India. ( Cost per ltr of petrol is highest in Bangalore in India)
3. Degradation of Human values: with increase in prices, people are more concerned in earning more and more money. Compassion, honesty, kindness kind of words are stored in Marvin's auxiliary memory. Get a e-copy of H2G2 for accessing it or contact sirius cybernatic corparation for a backup copy of it.

The only way out of this fix is to develop the secondary towns, and to imbibe a feeling of self respect and mutual co-operation in people.

Plight of City: Bangalore

2008-07-17T16:15:00.001+05:30

The garden city of India : Bangalore. A popular general knowledge question during the primary school level and is part of many primary school quizzes.

Not too far ago, the Information Technology revolution came to India. It came with promises of great wealth and power. Region politics played their part, fate did the rest. The most congenial and convenient location is Bangalore partly because of the climate and partly because it is a well known British settlement during the colonial India. Slowly multinational companies started to come. They are promptly followed by the Indian players as well. It is the hot destination for young and aspiring Indian youth. IT Professionals working in Bangalore got better matches and better dowry(Dowry system is still practiced in India although it is illegal). Naturally more and more people got attracted to it and the quest for holy grail began.

With the liberalization and globalization more and more companies flood in to the country. First to come were the call centers,which outsourced the gunk and mindless business of customer support. As the cost per employee for the company is less, India attracted many company call centers. It required a lot of man power. Our former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayeeji said "What not can a country of One Billion People do?". Ya they can do many things and one of them is call center business. Indian players started and made deals with various market players relating to a field and started customer support under roof housing hundreds and thousands of people. Traditionally Bangalore is a retirement option for the reasons above said. The infrastructure is good enough for the small pockets of people coming every year.
The city can't facilitate the thousands and eventually lakhs of people coming in the mad rush for money.

Watched Mongol(2007) last night. Extraordinary film as expected from Sergei Bodrov. Taking of the story is brilliant. The introduction scene and merkits attacking temujin and borte are treatise to the viewer. Background score is outstanding. Only lowlight from my viewpoint is the movie is a bit short, i am expecting a much bigger movie.

Hi all,

Mike testing 1,2,3...

Just thought I too should have one blog partly to pour out info to all the internet public and partly because I thought it is a nice idea and status symbol in the contemporary world(:P).
