Arvind kejriwal - Malcolm x in making

14 months back media posed Arvind was a new ray of hope for India. Now the same media is posing him as a cuckoo singing nonsense songs in nowhere direction. Which picture is right? Do we common men of India have our own sense and sensibility. Or we are the most selfish and moronic mob ever. This we have to decide. Why our vision just rest on small desires and peace? Why don't we get ready for some new revolution we need, for which everyone has to sacrifice. We all, who can read this, are well to do. Do we really need 1/2 rate bijli-pani or a atmosphere to reach the skies. Do we all just want to have good dollars and perks for our hard work, we put during our golden years. Is there not something else in us which we aspired for when we dreamed in our hearty days. Will we just concentrate on our looks, fashion statement and our degrees only. What say you? Was Arvind Kejriwal right or absolutely wrong? Think hard . Do we need media and MBA for our thoughts or just a heart and eyes to look into the real needs.

Idealism...need or utopia

In our school days we used to study Newtonian science and euclidean geometry didn't we. We used to get really fascinated about the facts and used to love drawing circles, parallel lines, perpendiculars, similar triangles and what not. Those used to be the happiest and full filling days of our otherwise boring studies except for of course the chemistry practical s where we used to make virtually small bombs! Any ways that is a different story. Getting back to the main topic. Those diagrams use to be so perfect. Likewise the equation of ideal gases PV=nRT. Beautiful equation. And and the three laws of motion . These were so so flawless. The concept of zero and vacuum which we can never achieve. So amazing. Only to found out later that these are all ideal situations. There is nothing like zero in this universe. There can never be a perfect vacuum (neither in physical space forget about getting it in or mind). There are no real parallel lines, no perpendiculars and no circles. There is a catch in three laws of motion which I don't know. So what is that we study and why? How does all this govern our universe? How has mankind  just leaped from one dark age to this modern technical fast age because of these discoveries?

The immortals of melhua or Confusions of amish

The author has leisurely taken the fact that everyone at least in India has seen or possessed the picture or idol of lord Shiva and there fore there is no need of giving  detailed description of him physically or characterwise as a human being. He is simply portrayed as a robust marijuana smoking chief of some primitive tribe in a faraway land. There is not even any attempt of creating any  trace of emotional bonding (forget about any spiritualbonding ) between the characters and the reader. The book from the start just gives u a feeling of comic amusing only to children who have never been exposed to any mythology or history.
The word Shiva in itself is so profound and big not only in Hindu mythology but in the whole mystic world that its context in itself mesmerizes the person without any effort. The author has just exploited this fact for his own good. He has actually slaughtered the history as well as mythology into pieces and then sew them back in his own way in the same way as some naturalists used to do to animals in post Darwin era for alms  from kings portraying them as new species. This is really like making a freak and then marketing and showcasing  it.

The immortals of melhua or confusions of amish ?

The immortals of melhua was  a book I picked after a long time of abstinence from reading( due to many confusions in life). I was hoping to read some fresh mature detailed researched aspects about Shiva wrapped in fiction as a story. But alas it turned out to be really a disgusting taste for my appetite.

To be continued.

Which is more important?

science stronger then art
Trade stronger then science.....vinoba bhave
