I’m not going to discuss about a religion here, and I will not in my blog, so let me discuss about Hinduism, don’t sigh and widen your eyes, I’m not contradicting myself. Let me share with you what I learned/explored. I born in a family which believes/follows Hinduism, but for some reason I believed that I’m not a Hindu, to understand this strange feeling I thought I need to explore more on the concept of Hinduism.
First I want to understand whom my (Hindu) primary deity is, I found none, yes I found none, you might say Lord Vishnu, but is the deity for Vainavum, and so Shiva for Savisim, Goddess MahaSakthi for Saktham, Lord Ganapathi for Ganapathiam, Lord Skandaswamy for Kaumaram/Skandam, I also found that Agni (Abimani) is also a supreme god for group of people and they called them selves as “Abimanis” as I was not able to fetch more information on this, I leave this for readers discretion, based on the above facts if my God supreme is Lord Shiva then I should be calling myself as Saiva, if my god supreme is Lord Vishnu, then I’m Vainava, and so on for other supreme deities respectively. But I’m calling myself has Hindu, where my god supreme belongs to other religion. I asked one of my friends who is doing his vedic studies, and visited several vedic colleges across the country, he starred at me initially, when I explained him the above concept he started believing that there is a sense in my question. He did some exploration for me and the results are surprising, as he was not able to find the definition for Hinduism, which was interesting, Hindus holy books are Vedas, and he is vedic student, and still no clue from him what Hinduism means? It seems to be an unsolved mystery in my thoughts until I met my friend on this Pongal holiday who is a Jain, sarcastically I asked what you have to do with Pongal festival, which his Mother heard and said, we too are Hindus but at the same time followers of Mahavira, hence we are called Jains, Hindus and the followers of Buddha are Buddhists, but still they are Hindus.
After reading Kannadasan’s “Arthamulla Hindu Matham” I’m surprised again, he too feels rather believes that Hinduism is not a religion but a name given to it, as not knowing what name should be given, just like an Anti-Matter, no one knows what it is? How it is? Where it is? But it exists at fulleth knowledge scientists around the globe are exploring this Anti-matter, hence the Big Bang theory recreation and so on, Just like this when Mugal’s and Europeans invaded India, they were not sure what to call this religious belief, as they have experienced only fear with god and not love, and astonished to see multiple religion (Vainavum, Saivam and so) which are related to each other. Hence choose the name of the river (Indus) which they are aware of to identify the people collectively.
Based on the above facts, it becomes very clear that there is nothing called as Hindu dharma, because the very word Hindu itself is a virtual thing and has no meaning as such. I get no sense when Hindu activists go crazy on Valentines Day/ Friendship day, ragging and mobbing the couples claiming they have insulted Hindu dharma, I pity them that they themselves don’t know what Hindu Dharma, let me ask them one question, Lord Krishna, who was in relationship with Goddess Radha but married to Satyabama, is this an affair (both pre-marital or extra marital)? But they call Lord Krishna’s and Radha’s love as eternal and not as an affair, if they can have an eternal love without marriage why cant a man and woman, why cant they expose their love and affection in public, I’m, not talking about the lust here, I’m talking about the divine love which Krishna and Radha experienced, so why these so called Hindu Dharma protectors, ban all Krishna idols and his ideologies before attacking young couples in parks and beaches, as they all are following Lord Krishna’s ideology who loved Radha in the banks of Yamuna and in Brindavan.
If celebrating lovers day on Valentines day is what makes them to go crazy, that makes little sense to me, as we have love of god (Lord Krishna) here whose birthday can be celebrated as lovers day, but if celebrating lovers day is what they feel bad, then there is something wrong in there institutional intentions.
If exposing love and affection in public is sin, then what they as Hindu Dharma itself is a sin, as it says Love is god and so god should not be exposed in public, there were many erotic sculptures craved in many temples, which are exposed to public that includes children too, they need to be destroyed first as they are more erotic then the people in public. Sarcastic thing is the sculpture inside the temple is a divine thing, but outside the temple it becomes erotic and porn, is it the temple that makes the difference or the people’s mindset.
Without any question it is people’s mindset, as we tend to see god only in temple, and inside the temple we say god is omnipotent, omnipresent and all, once we are out side the temple, we will forget that god is omnipresent and tend to see him only inside the temple so we close our divine eyes and open the lustful one, hence when we see a couple sharing there love, we don’t see their affection (as we closed our divine eyes) but we see only lust. Rather seeing Lord Krishna and Radha in them we tend to see our self, we don’t don’t believe in “Aham Brahmasmi”. If at all we do, we would have seen the Brahmam in them and not the lust.
To add fuel to the fire, now even cops are teaching morals to public, this is the joke of the century, there are disgusting movies/serials produced and telecasted by popular TV channels that need to be moralized, if cops have guts they should have warned or stopped then and not those innocent love birds who want to feel the warmth of each other. I don’t understand where in the city they go to love, is this an indirect way of telling LOVE is banned in Chennai (may be in India due to Hindu activists), they are lot more things that cops got to do rather teaching morals to lovers, it doesn’t mean that they can cross the limits, now the question is what is the limit? Well it is easy to explain but tough to describe. Well, Love and Lust share a thin line as border, I feel as long as your clothes are on you are on the safe zone. Just like any nature call LOVE is another type of nature call for LUST, so there is no point in avoiding LUST and it makes no sense in hiding LOVE. As you express you want to loo however you won’t pee in public, you can express LOVE but not LUST in public.

Bhopal Gas – An antagonism
First I wonder why Union Carbide has started in India, and why not in US, do they know about the potential threat already, and was not allowed to start there, any which ways, since it got installed and started here, do Indian government know at that point for the safety measures that need to be ensured, if so what happened to those safety measures, if they (Indian government) are not sure of safety measures, then its clear case of negligence and irresponsibility, has they failed to do the case study, which even happens in today’s environment, like Delhi Metro Rail project, Sethu Samudaram Project, River connection project ( this is a big joke, one of the Chief Party leader of the ruling government and descendent from Nehru’s family, pooh-poohed calling it has waste of time, energy and money) and so many, you don’t have to be a politician to know about things like this, as long as you prove to be true citizen, you know that list is endless.
We all know that there is no disaster management as such by state or central government, if at all there is one, we wouldn’t have lost 20000 lives, do we have after such incident ( sorry government has requested us to call this as accident, but anyone with conscience know it is not an accident, but an incident not planned, for an example you know that driving at 80KMPH on busy roads will lead to accident, but you still drive at the same speed, then any accident at that point, is not an accident anymore, rather it should be termed as incident), I doubt!
Verdict on this case is another big joke that too after a decade, and the comments on eluded Warrnen Anderson, CEO of Union Carbide, from the senior party spokesman/leader from the ruling government is not only a joke, but outrageous and harassing the feeling of the victims and people. His statement was if Warren was not eluded, he would have got killed by angry mob, so it seems they have helped him to elude, to save a foreigner who killed 20000 Indians, not sure how much fees they would have got for this, example he quoted his Kazab, who killed 100 of Indians, where government has spent huge sum for legal proceedings. What humanitarianism? I have no words to explain this, by seeing this humanitarianism of the ruling government who been ruling since then, by fooling people with there mesmerising words and false promises.
One thing which pricks me is, why there humanitarianism is showered only to foreigners and not to Indians, if Warren Anderson and Kasab need to be analyzed by law before passing on the verdict, who killed hundreds and thousands of Indians, with no mercy, an Indian who’s intention was to uproot the slavery by killing few foreigners, for the welfare of Indians, was not brought under the law, but was stamped as terrorist, it is none another than Nethaji Subhash Chandra Bose, who is a great freedom fighter and patriot, who is still a terrorist as per Indian constitution and should be handed over to British government if captured alive, the same government who said they wont give back the valuables that they have stolen from us. It seems diplomatic moves are only to foreigners and not to Indians.

PeaceMan Travels – A Fraud concern
I got married on June 4, 2010 and for my honey moon trip I booked tour with PeaceMan Travels, in the month on January 2010, I came to know about this travel through one my friend in North India, package costs are very affordable, which I recommended to my couple of friends as well, one which was on HoneyMoon trip, where he was given a very cheap hotel and very uncomfortable, which caused him mental agony, I called Manish Bhandri, who is a tour coordinator, after a big squabble a decent hotel was arranged for him, since I recommended PeaceMan travels to him, I felt very bad and apologized for the inconvenience.
The other person had even more mental trauma, his tickets were not confirmed till the eve of journey, thank god finally Manish confirmed the tickets, but driver was a drunkard, my friend was scared as he got two kids, and driver is drunkard on hair pin bends. I don’t want to imagine that, praise lord, all were safe.
My case was worst then them, Manish didn’t confirm the tickets till the eve of my journey, we were not able to reach him, his phones were switched off and not reachable for hours, we emailed him too, but no response, in about 10 hours to go for our travel, we received an email from him, saying he is not able extend his service, provide new travel dates, I'm pissed off with this.
First thing this is my honey moon trip, after many struggles we both got approvals for our trip, either we cancel now or not, we are not going to get approvals again in the near future, moreover we had paid 90% of the amount 6 months ago, and still he hasn’t made arrangements for us, this is frustrating, and worst thing is he is not answering our call or returning.
Manish has two cell phones (09582257811, 09717510727), he keeps one on, and call forwards to the other one which will kept off, so you always think his phone is switch off but actually not, if you text he can read it, after rigorous calls and messages, he finally texted me that he will refund my money, but hesitates to call me or answer my call. I called his Delhi office, it’s not his office, and person who answered the call said Manish is not leaving there and he is fraud, and he has cheated him as well.
I’m writing this for others who fall prey to his low cost package like me, I’m now approaching cyber police to get my money back, rather enjoying my marriage days now I’m going behind legal things which is pain in neck. Please be aware of PEACEMAN TRAVELS, they are not only frauds but a bunch of betrayers.

Nijam – an exaggeration
I happened to watch couple of Nijam (A crime report broadcasted in SUN tv) shows, and felt is it utterly against the name, it is a show of paper tiger, based on some real facts, it may be contradictory, some one might feel I’m trying to be sarcastic, but that’s not the fact.
What a they show is real, however what they say is little more exaggerated, thrusting their personal opinions to viewers, as mentioned in my pervious blogs, they not only decide what we see, now they also decide how and what we think. Is it not fatal, for me it seems to be, let me give you an example how fatal it is?
On Wednesday (April 7, 2010), the show (Nijam) was reporting about a leopard in Vaalparai area, the show presenter interviewed few localities who are affected by this leopard, interviewed the parents whose kids were killed by this leopard, interviewed few victims who portrayed the leopard as a demon from hell. You probably think that I’m speaking nuisance or pooh-poohing feelings of parents who lost their children to leopard or victims who lost their limbs, but sincerely I’m not, I’m sorry for the affected. But at the same time I’m very sorry for the leopard, it just did what it is meant for?
It is not, there fault to inhabit in leopard’s area; a human can live in 600 sq ft area, and can buy food for printed paper and store them for years, but its not the case for a leopard, for a leopard to survive it requires at least 100 SQ Kilometers, its not because it requires a lavishly big living room, with Queen size bedroom and all. It needs that area for its food to survive so that it can hunt, when human inhabits, which reduces the survivability of its food, and so human becomes its food. Is it not quite natural? It is.
You questioned its survivability by reducing its food, so it is questioning your survivability, again not to challenge you but for its survivability, but Nijam totally proscribed this truth, and prescribed the capture of the animal, thank god, it didn’t tell to kill it, but I don’t understand what they mean by capturing the animal, do they expect to raise it in captivity or to relocate, if at all they want to relocate it, where? Even in reserve forests humans live, they built their resorts and farm houses to attract tourists, remember the resorts built in the elephant corridor of the mudumaali sanctuary, not all but few encroachments has been removed.
Any which ways, relocation may not guarantee the survivability of the leopard, as it has to study the geography of the land and survey the availability of the food and all, rather if forest officials and government would have taken steps to avoid encroachment, this situation would have avoided, more over if these victims, would have thought with their common sense, that they are encroaching they wouldn’t have lost their kids and limbs.
My point is NIJAM should have interviewed few environmentalist and nature lovers to reveal the reality rather going through their exaggerated presentation, and people are already killing wild animals, once commonly seen sparrows are not seen anymore.
By projecting snakes as venomous creatures, tigers and lions as man-eaters, rather show snakes as farmer’s friend, who eat rodents, tigers and lions as forest friends who checks on herbivorous birth rate.
Not only here, NIJAM always dominates and thrusts its views on the viewers, rather allowing the viewers to think and come out with their own views, unlike other shows (Nadathathu Enna in Vijay tv and all) hope things change.

Nithyananda – Scapegoat
Since I’m an Agnostic (but people think it is theist, since they don’t understand the meaning of Agnostic) , few of my friends (Atheist) asked me to write a blog about Nithyananda, the prime topic in media (esp SUN Network) , actually there intention is to tease me as Nithyananda is/was a swamiji, but I know they are my friends very best friends, our ideology has never ever disturbed our relationship, and I also take this opportunity to thank them, as it helped me to explore and also to get rid of taboo that every one has. Let me share with you few of my findings and my thoughts, and I leave rest to you all.
First thing which I want to discuss is about the issue of adultery/affairs that was imposed on Nityananda, and I think, that is his personal matter, we have no rights to interfere in that, lets not bring the religious taboo here, anyways, I’ll come to that part little later, he didn’t molested, he didn’t raped, (sarcastically one who raped is about to become Chief Minister soon) yes he had sex, that too with the concern of the opposite sex, then how it is unethical, yep coming to the religious purists, they might call this sexual act as unethical, I would like to ask one question to those purists, is Sex denied in Hindu dharma? Or Is Sex denied for sages? If so, then sex between Vishwamitra and Menaka is also adultery, and we know Indira, King of Deva’s committed adultery with Ahalya ( as per the story she didn’t, but I personally believe she did too, she is wife of a Gautama Maharishi, and she definitely should have the powers to know the fake, and that’s the reason there is a curse, Maharishi’s never curse’s an innocent), a Bharama Rishi like Viswamitra fallen to the prey of Sex, King of all Lords Indira fallen to the prey of Sex, is Nityananda more divine then them, if religion and custom accepted them why not Nityananda, I’m not justifying his act, if that is legally punishable punish him, but religiously he has not done any thing unethical, moreover he has reformed many souls, it is true that he is not a divine character, but his words are soothing, he can attract only weak souls unfortunately there percentage is much higher and so his popularity.
There is demand for spirituality; there remains a huge deficit for it, so people tend to fall prey to such black market spirituality and leaders, goodos to Dravida movements who created this vaccum and deficit so people like Nityananda can be sold at higher price in open market.
Purists still argue that he had sex, while wearing saffron dress and uthraksha, which is against the religious codes, is that so? Same story Vishwamitra is a bramharishi he wears only saffron dress and posses uthraksha round the clock, and he still had sex with Menaka, and so our country name Bharath. Ahalya wife of Maharishi only wears saffron clothes and had sex with Indira and at unacceptable time as per Vedas, even Lord Shiva who had sex with Mother Parvithi which led to Kamasutra, was wearing saffron colored dress and uthraksha. As per mythology, Krishna and Radha were the models for Ajantha and Ellora caves sculptures, and such obscene and phonographic pictures (if not looked with divine eyes) are found in all temples across globe.
If Nityananda is a sinner, then Lord Shiva, Krishna and Viswamitra are also sinners. aren’t they? Then we have to burn the effigy of Lord Shiva and Krishna too. Spiritual leaders like Osho, Ramakrishna, Ramana Maharishi were preached the same. More over Nityanada was not an ascetic, he is a business man, his business was scripture, and capital is his words, fools believed him as god and poured wealth on his feet. It is punishable on social grounds just like chit funds, may be legally too, but definitely not on religious grounds.
Why media is so attractive on this, especially SUN network, as Nakeeran, Dinamalar and all are worried only about the Actress, and you all know why but not about Nityananda, it seems. But why Sun Network is cornering Nityananda, we are sure that is not for social or human welfare, if so Spectrum case worth of many thousand crores, who highlighted the same submerged it in no time, as I discussed in my previous topic (Telegana – A Rampage), people tend to forgot previous issue, when next arise, we don’t only forget we also fail to foresee/see-through things, as said in thirukural, anything we hear/see need to be analyzed to grasp the truth. Thanks to my friends who helped me to analyze these things, it seems (genuiness is not verified) Network was trying to buy some land near Bengaluru, unfortunately the land that Network has finalized was an Ashram of Nityananda, and Nityananda was not ready to sell that property to Network, and there aroused a friction, and one fine day Network received a CD with obscene movie of Nityananda, miracle, is it not?
Pen is (was) mightier than sword, this revolutionized to media, and Network has proved that it can make dust out of dawn (Spectrum case) and dawn out of dust (Nityananda), gone are those days where people decide what they want to see in television, now we are forced to see what they decide to show, now they moved to movies as well, there sick movies always stand first in their ratings. Remember the movie “Tomorrow Never Dies”, like the media “Tomorrow”, we have Network now, they can make the terrorists as preachers and preachers as terrorists.

Telagana – A Rampage
A tale reminisces me, there was a king who drew a line and asked his ministers to make that line shorter without erasing any part of the line, which puzzled the ministers, and finally one smart kid drew another line bigger than the one already there drew by the king. Its exactly what is happening with the Telagana issue, after the accident (I would rather call this as murder/assassination) of YSR Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, which was leading to rampage in the state and rejecting the candidature Jagan Mohan son of YSR, as the next chief minister of AP by the state congress, pothered central congress committee. They tried to elude the situation but didn’t last longer, finally one smart congress watch dog came up with an idea to create a bigger issue than these, and that is TELAGANA. I bet no one in AP including the close friends and relatives of YSR, who may or may not be in Congress, want to probe his death case now, but to get out of Telagana issue.
You might tend to ask me why they created bigger issue like Telagana rather solving the death case of YSR and accepting Jagan Mohan, Telagana might look bigger for community, definitely not for the party, it is same divide and rule policy of British which congress is still following, it is the far sight of Nehru family which divided states based on the languages so that there is always a tension and uneasiness between the states, this gives the more leverage to the central to intervene state affairs and disputes. Tamilians know about the Cauvery dispute for decades, and it will never be solved as long as it is there vote bank, since that is an appetizer for every election.
Gandhi divided countries based on Religion, Nehru divided country based on languages, and congress now dividing the states based on divisions, tomorrow it will be further divided based on the caste, creed and so on. I know the question in your mind how it benefits the congress, small states means more and more small political parties and this creates more and more friction between the state policies, and to reach the central the states has to come under one umbrella which is almost a mission impossible now. So it a biscuit thrown by the congress to feed the small political parties to gain powers in their respective state, and at, no time these small political parties can join together to form a central government, remember there are only two big national parties, Congress and BJP. BJP is getting out of show, because of non-secularism (neither congress a secular party) which BJP accepted (I mean indirectly) and congress didn’t. So it is always the congress which will own the Prime Minister seat, I know BJP is also encouraging this Telagana issue, but they will not get the lion share, which I believe BJP knows too.
Remember the congress which rejected Jagan Mohan’s candidature for CM based on age factor, is promoting Rahul son of Rajiv EX-PM, for PM candidature, and they don’t want the people of AP to question this so they have a given another question to raise that is Telagana, they just want to shut the AP’s mouth and not other states, since no state is going to raise their voice for AP, because of the friction and uneasiness with other states, which exactly congress is aiming at, and it is close to the accomplishment of that mission.
Its not the case only in AP, say in TamilNadu, when ever there is a Cauvery issue raised in public, you see government raising the Bus ticket fares or funding farmers to protest for crop price hike (only for this every party have there own unions), so the Cauvery issue is erased off from the people’s mind. Indians have amnesia, which these politicians take advantage off. If there is any national issue like peace talks with Pakistan, after 26/11 incident India taking a U-turn from its stand, when we (Indians) were agitated a little, government spread rumors of hiking fuel prices, now we are worried about the fuel price hike and not about the peace talks with Pakistan.
As long as we are suffering with this disorder (amnesia), we are the slaves for politicians, and if a politician is not taking advantage of this people’s disorder, he will be forgotten soon, like Lal Bhadhur shastri, Kamaraj – EX CM of TN and so on.

Aairathil Oruvan – My View
It seems Selvaragavan was edgy about the screenplay of the movie, however he seems to be confident about the story, with no second thought, it is definetely a dare move in Indian cinema, atleat in tamil movies, a fantasy movie, with an absurd historical base.
First thing which gnaws me is the need of Karthick in lead role, I feel that any supportive actor can do that role without any injustice to that character, I dont mean that Karthick has done some injustice to that, I mean it is clerk job and a manager is not required. Director seems to be in hurry right from the beginning, movie unveils with “theru Koothu” , a traditional street play, which tells about the last king of Chola dynasty who evaded his son to a distant unexplored land to safe gaurd him from Pandia’s who attacked Tanjavur, the capital of chola dynasty. Its not a real history as per the disclaimer of the movie, it seems Directorthought that this historical background might give more weightage to his fantasy, and it did, and yeilded criticism from purists. I personally believe that these criticism are artifical, may be for the popularity of the movie, and inculcate the urge of watching this movie, and this worked.
If director would have spent little more time in screenplay, the movie would have been a block bluster, every role in this movie is well defined and every one has done there part exceptionally, except the director’s part and screenplay, right from the beginning from theru koothu, to the chola period, it looked like a abrupt transition, it required lots to analysis to correlate, this transition, something like this, I’m watching at 20th century part all of sudden I was moved 1000 yrs back, yes the theru koothu is about this 1000 yrs story, that need to be filed and smoothened in the story, not sudden u-turn.
All traps that chola’s created quickly whisked me to Mackenna's gold, Indiana Jones, National Treasure, and a Japnese movie for the last trap of sound, I’m not saying its wrong that it is copied, but Director would have taken steps to present this in an acceptable manner. Like most of the Hollywood and Bollywood movies, this movie has got some logical errors too, but obvious one should be avoided, like the Quick sand Trap, when Anita Pandian (Reema Sen), first stepped on the quick sand, it opened and stayed opened for few mins, where as other quick sand traps closed immediately, so that they can step on and check if that is a quick sand and step out immediately.
Tamil Purists concern about showing Chola as a tribal/cannibal, I’m on Director side on this, he might be Chola and cultured/civilized king in Tanjavur not in Minggu Vah island, he is a tribal here, he dont have chefs to cook food for him with species and all as in Tanjavur, he is a tribal here, and his continues starvation and expellsion from the outer world would have forced him to cannibalism, this is obvious, if you would have watch Man Vs Wild, or Survivorman in Discouvey channel, you will get what I mean, again as other things overlooked by the Director, this too was stepped over. If Director would have taken little more time to look into these details, this movie would have become a history in Tamil cinema, I accept that will increase the movie time, let it be, people who are used to watch 3 hrs movie, will watch 4/5 Hr movie as well, just like Lord of Rings, which was 4.3 Hrs movie, and a box office hit.
Now probably you would know, what I mean by abrupt transistion
I hope with all these inputs and corrections Director is going to come back with Part 2, Just like James Camaroon, who corrected all his mistakes in Terminator – I, and gave Terminator – II which was a block bluster, I believe Aairathil Orvan – II will emerge successfully, undoubtfully Aairathil Orvan – I is a dawn and Aairathil Orvan – II probably be the bright day.
