Ambiguity...

"Dharma Samsthapanarthaya, Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge.."
Incidents would happen, which would replace the evil with the Truth, time to time.. A Very worthy extract from the Sacred Hindu books. And, that has to happen time to time, to ensure the Quality of the Life in this World. The Same is the Avathara Dharma's of the dashaavatharas of Vishnu.

"Malsya Koorma Varaahashcha, Narasimhashcha Vaamana, Ramo ramacha ramacha, Krishna Kalki Janardhana!!". Each time when the evil Strengthened in the World, incidents happend to replace it with Justice. And, that's what the thing that fortifies Our belief in God. Mahabali, the Best King the World has ever seen., that's the Core of what I mean through this post. 


Maveli nadu vanidum kalam
manusharellarum onnupole
amodathode vassikkum kalam
apathangarkkumottilla thanum
adhikal vyadhikal onnumilla
bala maranangal kelkkanilla
kallavumilla chathiyumilla
ellolamilla poli vachanam
kallapparayum cheru naziyum
kallatharangal mattonumilla ”


Kerala, the 'God's Own Country' was Once the Same under the rule of Mahabali.  Happiness and prosperity spread throughout the Country. Those beautiful memories are still recollected by the people, We Celebrate it as Onam. You all know what i am Saying about, still for the sake of my blog, Let me remind you the Story of Mahabali. Raja Mahabali believed 'Daana' as his dharma. Once he began to initiate a Yaga which would gift him the Heaven, the kingdom of Devendra. We all know, what kind of King, Indra was. The One who was never interested in the Welfare of his people., he was always in the world of leisure.. however, as Soon as he came to know this, he went to Mahavishnu for Saving his rule. As a King, it's the dharma of Bali to extent his empire, for that too he chose a divine way of a Yaga, rather than a War. If the Swarga had came under the rule of Mahabali, we could be Sure how Lovely it would have been. But, the thing that leaves a question in my mind is that Vishnu stood with the side of Indra, and exploited the Daanadharmik character of Bali to kick him down.. And, still when Vishnu asked what he wanted as his last wish, the Lovely Bali replied that he wanted to meet and be a part of his people's happiness Once in a year. What else could we expect from a Great King, to be better..?

All the Nine Avathars of Mahavishnu left us a great Message that Truth will prevail, but what is the exact message he gives us through his Vaamana avathara.? this is not a Criticism of the great epic, but just a innocent question from a little Child. I'll be greatfull for those people who can give me the exact message.

Justice, at it's Best..!

Hi friends, this post is meant just to Share U guys a pretty interesting Murder Case where we find the Justice as just amazing.. I got it as a mail from my friend Sankar. I found it better to blog this rather than just forwarding this to U. In the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic Science, AAFS President Dr Don Harper Mills astounded his audience with the legal complications of a bizarre death. Here is the story.


On March 23, 1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head. Mr Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-story building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to the effect indicating his despondency. As he fell past the ninth floor his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window, which killed him instantly. Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a safety net had been installed just below the eighth floor level to protect some building workers and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned.

"Ordinarily," Dr Mills continued, "A person who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide." That Mr Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands.

The room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigorously and he was threatening her with a shotgun. The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window striking Mr Opus.
When one intends to kill subject "A" but kills subject "B" in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject "B." When confronted with the murder charge the old man and his wife were both adamant and both said that they thought the shotgun was unloaded. The old man said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore the killing of Mr Opus appeared to be an accident; that is,if the gun had been accidentally loaded.
The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident. It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother.

Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was guilty of the murder even though he didn't actually pull the trigger. The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus. Now comes  the exquisite twist.
Further investigation revealed that the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother's murder.
This led him to jump off the tenth story building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast passing through the ninth story window. The son had actually murdered himself so the medical examiner closed the case as a 'Suicide'.

Simply 'amazing'..

A though for the Life...

It was a nice Day;  usual routine day with my articleship.. Suresh Sir alloted me a work at Chaakka, near Karikakam temple.. By 10:30 I reached Chaakka bus stop as I didn't get a through bus. I chose to have a walk till the Office, knowingly it's about a 3 Km walk. The flora beside the road was at it's best in the shining Sunlight. It was Soothing to walk through the shadows of giant trees which Seem like Smiling beauties.. It was Simply awesome to See some wild water plants growing in those shallow ponds, floating as if Lotus plants.. I just realized, it was not a crazy loose of energy, my choice to have a 3 Kms walk in the Summer. Some random thoughts just passed through my mind in my half - conscious walk.

I just stared on the vehicles on the highway which were Swifting towards their destiny. Suddenly an unpleasant sound of a sudden brake by an i-10, broke my thoughts.. It's a usual thing on highways. But, something catched my mind from this incident.. "Friction".. Ya, the friction which was responsible for that sound. In the walk, my mind went to my 7th Std where I learned the basics of 'friction'. "Friction always acts in the opposite direction in which we apply the force." A simple Scientific fact. "Why this friction is always acting in the Opposite direction, against all Our efforts??", I thought with the innocence of a 7th std boy.. We know how difficult it is to apply a force through Our efforts, yet, why is God making this force of friction, always Opposite to Our efforts??

At my Science friends, please don't counter me with teh Scientific benefits of friction & terrible equations.. I'm pondering through it a bit philosophically.. Friends, just think, isn't the same happening in Our Life, in a broader sense? Nothing comes to us easy, everything we achieve is the result of Our endless efforts, for Sure.. But, Sometimes it may not work smoothly in Our Life that, we may not be rewarded with the worth which Our efforts deserve.. Things happen in Our lives, which we never wanted it to be.. At least Once, U would have thought " If this thing never happened in my Life..." Yeah friends, life is never a world of fantasy.. Things happen like this.. But, do we give up Our efforts just because friction is there..? , Is it wise to tell that "I have kept the friction zero by keeping my efforts zero"?? No, never...

The Same approach, we have to have in Our Life too. Nothing happens easy, there would be increasing resistance for Our increased efforts.. But, there will be a time Once when Our efforts would overcome the resistance.. The time when we are able to use that 'friction' according to Our wish is the time that we turn around Our way to Success.. It's the same thing which the Science has proved.

Well, I have now reached my work Office through the Chaakka highway, now it's time to work.. ;-) Be positive my dear friends, the Success is yours..

Again, a hearty happy New Year.. (2011-12)

The New Year 2011 has been gifting me Some precious moments of my Life.. And, again it's time for me to wish my lovely readers a beautiful New Year. "My hearty happy New Year wishes for the whole Commerce fraternity..". A thought nictates through my mind when I make this wish to U. On the 31st March night, I made the same as texts to my friends. I also sent them to my Science friends. A reply I got for that was like this.
"You Commerce fraternity is bad; U Celebrate new year on April fool.:-)"
I loved that tease, but I must have a kick-back, it's matter of all we Commerce students, isn't it.. I replied "Interesting.. but, what shall we do, Some fools celebrate it as their day." The next reply came in a minute, no need to tell it was another teaser. That chat went on teaing each other.  After that, I thought a bit about Science students. I Strongly feel that there is a significant diversity in the thoughts of Science & Commerce students. Some of the theories in Commerce are indigestible for a pure Scientific thinker. Also, from some views of my Science friends (though directly they didn't tell me), I felt that they strongly feel that Commerce gives more importance to money than that to the mankind. This is a post meant for clarifying the fact and just for telling them the importance of Commerce professionals.

First, Let me quote a phrase we used to hear from Venu Sir, Our Management Guru. "The man who discovered electricity was Great, but his greatness would have been worthless without the man who found 'electric meter' ". This theory may be a bit unpleasant for a Science student. But, please give me a chance to explain what I know. We all know that electricity is a very vital element for the present world. Obviously, it's the life blood of the Industrial world. It's a request from me not to take it in an emotional sense. Just think practically, think U are the One who discovered electricity, of course U know, it has a great potential for satisfying the needs of the Society. But, how will U provide that facility to the public at an affordable rate.? how will U meet at least the cost of its production.?? How will U be regaining the huge funds U took from banks for setting up the production unit.? How will U accommodate the employees  U took for salary.??

Yes, the discovery of 'electric meter' gives you the Solution all in a go..! It gives U confidence that there is a mean for profitably providing it to the mankind. Also, electric meter too is not the perfect Solution for U'r problem. There are brains of Commerce which stay always aware of Ideas which keeps U'r efforts efficient and working. It's not all about money. But, Money is a stimulant which keeps a business going, and a business is the art of providing Services to the mankind in the most effective & efficient manner. A businessman takes a small margin from the income as the reward for the efforts & risks he has undertaken himself in providing those Services to the mankind. It gives you the support as big MNCs who invest tremendous amounts and pays U too for U'r Skills & efforts. I will Never say Commerce is greater than Science. But for Sure, I can't tell its of lesser importance than Science. The thought I have always believed and lived with is that "Science is the vitality of mankind, whereas, Commerce is the necessity of the Society.!"

Hope you enjoyed this post too.. There are 2 other posts awaiting U in my mind. U can expect them Soon.. For now, Take Care..
