Brothers movie

Today watched Brothers movie on the big screen.
Just like I discussed "Kali Yuga" is shown in the movie. Blood against blood that is what ultimately boils down to.
And I must say this is the first Hindi movie where I have seen 'tap out' being shown.
In all earlier Indian movies whenever there is a wrestling or boxing match, ending is always a knock out or a fight till the end when the villain is finished.
"Tap out" is a way to manage conflict or "Kali Yuga". Thats what I feel.
I am glad that they have shown tap out in a Hindi movie. It seems people are learning something from WWE and other influence.

Kali Yug, Iskcon and WWE

This is Kali Yuga. Or so has been said in the Puranas.
What does Kali Yuga mean? Kali Yuga means the "Age or Period of Kali" and Kali means conflict.
In this day and age we find conflict is everywhere.
In TV everyday in debates we can see the conflict and shouting.
Conflict and shouting does not mean that it has to be till one is extinguished. In the day and age, we have to learn to live with conflict and that is what Kali Yuga implies.
We are born into this day and age due to factors beyond our control.
Poeple say that we must have done some "good Karma" so that we are born as human beings.
Human beings are the numero uno species of this planet. No other plant or animal can match what human beings can do. Thus even great religious scholars will say that we must have done something good that we are born and live as humans.
But we are in Kali Yuga. And the great Swami Prabhupada who founded Iskcon has given us the Mahamantra which when chanted 108 times everyday can guide us through this "Kali Yuga" and that Mahamantra is "Hare Krushna Hare Krushna, Krushna Krushna Hare Hare. Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare".
That is the answer to Kaliyuga. It may not be the most "comprehensive answer" but it does provide some solace. You can try and feel that. There may be certain alternative solutions live visiting temples or church or praying five times a day, we don't know which is the best. But we know which is the simplest.
Certainly it is simpler to chant the Iskcon Mahamantra for 108 times in a day just like we brush the teeth everyday than praying five times a day after ablution. Or visiting Church to hear a sermon everyday. What I am saying is that we can adopt any practice we want but we need to guard against the Kali Yuga.
WWE here comes to mind. I feel the popularity of WWE is there or perhaps of any sport is there because of this Kali Yuga. People want to see the "conflict getting managed". People don't like to see the "Kali" or conflict getting out of hand. They see the duel in the comfort of their seats at home or at site. And that is what they like and that is what contributes to the popuarity whether it is through WWE or IPL.
WWE is further special because it is personal competition between two (or more in Tag teams) human beings. So a person (WWE Superstar) in human being's likeness (the viewers') is doing the duel. Now people may think that in future robots can duel and people will watch. That is less likely because as a human being we experience a lot of things, main is pain, happiness and sadness and the spirit of achieving something.
That cannot happen through a machine.

Western Odisha

This Party which is in power in the Center it is BJP. And it be remembered that this party is famous for two things.
  • Dividing people and then Ruling: Yes this party is the master in that. In the previous version of their Govt. they divided M.P, U.P. and Bihar. Now instead of three states there are six states Bihar, Jharkhand, M.P, Chhatisgarh, U.P., Uttarakhand. And BJP is in power in four out of six states. Thus their next project is to "grab power" in the balance two states namely, Bihar and UP. 
  • Looting of Resources: Yes people BJP is master in looting the nation. They want to hoodwink the people and loot the nation. They are selling State Assets. Indian Oil Stake sale is a case in point. They want to privatise existing Govt. Controlled entities like Railways. They will start selling more and more assets of the Centre and it is very likely when next election happens the landscape of the country would have gone tremendous change. Their policy of "Minimum Government, Maximum Governance" is actually "Privatise more and more State Assets and give to private parties (& make more and more money)". Not only existing assets but also potential assets (like assets existing below grounds) and farmer owned lands are in their radar. For them it does not matter what happens to poor farmers or tribals or forest lands. Recently Goa mining has re-started is a case in point. Virgin unspoilt forest lands are getting converted to mines. By creating diversions in Kashmir and making Pakistan as enemy they loot the country. If you have watched Die Hard movie you will know what I am talking about. In that movie, terrorists will seize the building of a Japanese Corporation and take people hostage. Their demands will be for US State Department to help release various terrorists around the globe. The reality would be it would be a diversion where their intention would be to loot the Bearer Bonds and Cash from the Vault of the Corporation.
Their new project is to divide Odisha into two states, Coastal Odisha and Koshala. They know Odisha is a mineral rich state. Coal, iron ore and bauxite is found in abundance.
They know Naveen Pattnaik led BJD is quite strong and even if BJP wins in Western Odisha they cannot win throughout Odisha and capture power in Bhubaneswar. Thus they have initiated this project of "Divide and Rule" in Odisha. It is a project for them. They will give the example of UP, Bihar and MP and perhaps even AP and it will gain momentum under BJP being in power in Center.
Recently Posco and today Vedanta has decided to shut shop in Odisha due to various agitations and restrictions. By converting one state into two, BJP hopes to gain the mines and mining lands by manipulating the Govt. which will occupy the regional newly formed states. So resistance will be lesser from farmers and tribals and it would be manageable to BJP and their aim will be to loot resources as well as receive kickbacks from the private entities engaged in the same.

2 Movies

Watched two movies as mentioned below.
  • Night at The Museum: Secret of the Tomb: Watched on Tata Sky showcase channel. Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. This guy Ben Stiller is incredibly funny. Have enjoyed watching his movies ever since I have started watching movies. Whether it is Something About Mary or Tropic Thunder or cameo appearace in P.Diidy music vide, I have always liked his movies.
  • Maanjhi The Mountain Man : Watched this movie on the big screen. Movie is definitely worth a watch.

BJP Nagpur Connection

Years back I had read in school about a king from Central Asia who was ruling Delhi. It was before Mughal Era. That ruler decided to shift the capital from Delhi to somewhere in Central India. I do not remember the name. I will do an Internet Search and post here.
Shifting of Capital
As I posted above after a quick Internet Search, the ruler was Md Bin Tughlaq. He shifted the Capital from Delhi to Central India and it ultimately resulted in the downfall of the Tughlaq Sultanate.
Now in 2015, the BJP Sarkar also is doing the mistake of Ruling from Nagpur.
Yes people you know what Nagpur means. Nagpur means the Sangh Parivar head organization which is the RSS.
RSS is now remote controlling the Indian Govt. Ever since the pals of Mahatma Gandhi assassins, assassinated the Father of the Nation, RSS would have never have dreamt that its own party would be in power in Delhi.
Union Minister Proud of RSS
Now that they are in power in Centre in Delhi, they are controlling the Govt. And desperation is showing.
They know that Modi popularity will not last. People will demand results.
Modi said "Acche Din Ayenge" and won elections. Now people are asking "Modiji, Acche Din Kab Ayenge?". And the question mark is huge. Since these people cannot do anything, they are fast-tracking their hardline agenda. Hence PM Modi is avoiding going before legislators and general public. He is still in election mode and going for campaigning in Bihar where their new plan is to thrust the hardline RSS Hindutva agenda on the Bihar people.
They got the fist dose of Modi wave waning when they lost in Delhi State elections. If they cannot win in Delhi where the Central Govt is based, they panicked. They followed with,
"Beef ban", "Maggi ban", Then FTII and IIT/IIM Control, Then Yakub Memon hanging, Porn ban. The last one they had to reverse hastily and they came to know about their limitations. They knew they cannot force their medieval mindset on all and sundry.
Thus, Several projects they are fast tracking. Because they know that like Tughlaq dynasty their days are numbered. Even if they are aware they will chose to ignore it and it will be at their own peril.
The hanging of Yakub Memon in Nagpur was symbolic for them because they wanted to show Nagpur as to not only the Physical Center of India but also the Political Nervecenter.
Now the RSS remote control was clearly visible in the way Indo-Pak diplomacy was handled. India through the RSS dictated method (from Nagpur) wanted to shame Pakistan in Delhi but Pakistan said nothing doing. No preconditions for talks. All issues to be brought to the table. The RSS plan was turned on its head. Now more panic is bound to ensue. No way can India be remotely controlled from Nagpur.
Now we have come to know that they want to sell off Indian prized assets which are known as Navratnas. They want to make maximum money in minimum time out of "Selling Indian Govt. Assets". Some months back, they begun by selling Coal Mines which belong to Indian people. PM will say whole process is transparent but so are IPL Auctions and we know what happens in IPL. This week they are beginning by selling off 10% of Indian Oil Corporation. Last time I checked that is one of the most profitable state owned companies. This is "fast-tracking their agenda in panic" .

India Pakistan talks

I will say India Pakistan talks was "pre-planned to fail" by the Indian Govt.
Lat month incedents,What happened in Gurdaspur and then in Kashmir where a a 'so-called Pakistan terrorist' was captured were false flag attacks. Truth is India stage managed those attacks to get an upper hand against Pakistan when the talks were supposed to happen i.e. August 24th onwards.
In the case of the Kashmir terrorist captured, he was basically instructed 'to shoot randomly so as not to kill anyone' and 'let himself be captured' by the so called soldier known as "Rocky" who was then made as a hero by Indian Mass Media. Who knows those terrorists could be given blanks to shoot as well. And then evidence could have been planted.
India has nothing against Pakistan. Rather it is Pakistan which is a victim of terrorism.
Let us remember the thousands of Pakistani lives lost over a decade and half of the so called war on terror which is nothing but a Western NATO led invasion of Afghanistan and saying to them "Either you are with us or against us".
India soon grabbed the opportunity and began funding and arming those terrorists who are not representatives of any religion or country. Truth is those terrorists which carry out attacks in Pakistan and Kashmir are basically mercenaries. But India does have close to million well armed and funded army in Kashmir.
When so much force is present in Kashmir tell me how can a terrorist 'sneak in'. Obviously he was pushed by elements and captured. If terrorists are Kashmiri it is nothing but indigenous people who take up arms against a hostile state. Let us not forget Indian freedom struggle do have those people who have taken up arms against British Rule.
"One mans freedom fighter is another man's terrorist". This saying has been lost. Earlier about 20 years back this used to be heard a lot. These days due to atrocities by powerful entities being so rampant in the World, everyone seems to have forgotten it.
Now what will happen. India a billion plus people will become a joke in the international community.
UPA Sarkar feared for the Opposition (BJP included) and hence did not make overtures towards Pakistan. But BJP Sarkar had the opportunity. With the mandate they have got they could have done anything. They could have changed the situation in 3-4 years. India and Pakistan could have become a beacon for the World.
Now what will happen? Since full scale war can never happen. It will be always be eyeball to eyeball confrontation and all people accross the subcontinent will suffer. No Cricket. So there is no use of this team of India. It can never be greatest if it does not 'prove itself against Pakistan' in a full series.
Just once every four years playing a single match in World cup would not prove anything. I know that record of wins is held by India but it is the total record of "all matches" which matter not just only in World Cup. India is scared that that record would be bettered by Pakistan when they keep winning against India.

Twitter Owns You

I feel if you have an account in Twitter or Facebook, they "own you". They own your ass and your body.
In the case of Facebook it is not only your body, they also own your soul.
And guess what, they also own all your friends and friends of friends, just like they own you.
Let us Forget Facebook because I am never gonna step into that realm again.
Let us talk about Twitter where I was there till about this month.
Twitter also owns you. If you have an account with Twitter they own you. But if you log in frequently and start posting in Twitter they do much more than just own you.
YOU BECOME TWITTER'S BITCH.
If you watched this weeks; WWE Monday Night Raw i.e. the RAW before Summerslam 2015, you will find that John Cena gave a very good speech. He told how Triple H has selected Seth Rollins to 'carry forward' his legacy as a "Cerebral Assassin". Triple H himself was anointed as the future of WWE by The Nature Boy, Ric Flair. Then he says that he will defeat Seth Rollins and  people will remember Seth Rollins by whom John Cena defeated to become the 16 time World Heavyweight Championship. Towards the end just before he goes for the Contract Signing he says that Triple H was never Ric Flair's bitch.
Thus what he implies is that Seth Rollins acts like he Triple H's bitch and further goes on to say that he would make Seth Rollins his bitch on Summerslam.
Thus by constantly posting in Twitter you not only bitch about something and in the end you become Twitter's bitch. Something you do in the outside world and then go into Twitter is different but when you start doing something on Twitter and place more importance to it that what you do in the real world, you are nothing but a bitch.
And I feel it is better to be nothing than being a bitch. So it is always better not to have an account in Twitter. If you have an account they own you. If you do more than that you become their bitch.
I will say I had watched long time back the movie "The Devils Advocate". There the Devil, played by Al Pacino says how God is constantly making rules and creating 'boundaries'.
"Think but dont't watch, Watch but don't touch, Touch but don't take, Take but don't swallow".
All the time a person gets conflicted about what to do and what not to do. Similar is the case with this Twitter as well as Facebook. You do something and you feel you own them but the truth is They own you. Your mere presence is enough for them to "own you".
