With every time, there happens to be a Guru, who inculcates Yoga and its phenomenal features to the people. Yoga and Meditation are internally related, as we all know. Yoga is believed to be carried out as a preparation course for Meditation. This is because, in deep meditation, concentration should be focused to only one point. In whatever position we meditate, our body shouldn't feel uncomfortable. To prepare our body for this kind of discipline, yoga is pretty necessary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Notably, here in Chennai, India, we have hardly 3 - 4 groups of people who teach Yoga. Isha, SKY and Nithyananda's group. All these Institutions are famous worldwide and they teach the spirit of Meditation with the help of Yoga also called as Yogic Meditation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;An old proverb reads, "All rivers lead to the sea and all religions lead to one god". Similarly, though each of this institutions start off with a different technique in Yogic Meditation, they aim at attaining completeness in Meditation as such.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;SKY - Simplified Kundalini Yoga&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Kundalini&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;is prominently &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;known&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; in the&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; Hindu Yogic way of meditation. The concept of Meditation is to enable and raise the "Power of Life or the cosmic power" that resides dormant in each and every living being, which is also responsible for the source of energy supply for the human body. To simplify, we call this cosmic power or energy, "Athman".&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;This energy is said to remain in the Kundalini region, precisely, 1 cm above the anus. Some books also say, the Prostrate gland is the source of this "Yuir Shakthi or cosmic energy", since this is the region where blood is converted into sperms which is responsible in giving birth to a child after a due course of action.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;So, activating this particular gland by concentrating only on them, will help the person attain the state of "Shanthi Yogam" according to SKY. After a few days of realizations, the person should transport this kundalini's energy to his forehead and between the eyebrows and later to the center of his head. All these are named according to the process such as "Shanthi Dhavam, Aaginai Dhavam and Dhuriya Dhavam". With constant practice and healthy meditation sessions, the doer will be able to realize the source of his birth and this will automatically lead him to take actions to liberate his soul from this world and attain paramathman, which is the ultimate goal of Hinduism.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;In SKY, Yoga is also taught which is nothing but exercises which will make the body flexible. With this, the doer can take complete concentration to his meditation rather than his disturbing body.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vedhaththri Maharishi:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Vedhaththri Maharishi is believed to be a saint, who was born in Guduvancherry, some 20 Km from Tambaram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Vedhaththri Maharishi was the founder of SKY. His bibliographies and Autobiographies say that he has spent almost 50 years in his life time to simplify the Yogic meditation practices. All the methods that has been taught under SKY classes are the ones that are taken from the manuscripts written by Siddhas in India. All these meditation practices can be taken with a Guru's advice registered with Vedhaththri Group. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span id="main" style="visibility: visible;"&gt;&lt;span id="search" style="visibility: visible;"&gt;&lt;span class="f"&gt;&lt;cite&gt;For Further details, please refer www.vethathiri.org/&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-2917875727461199205?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/2917875727461199205/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=2917875727461199205' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/2917875727461199205'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/2917875727461199205'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2010_09_08_archive.html#2917875727461199205' title='SKY - The vedhathtri method of Yogic Meditation'/><author><name>Varun R.

A simple hypnotic session can help you feel and realize your past life with 'repressed memory or thoughts'. Past life is very much spiritually associated with Hinduism. The belief in reincarnation of the same soul allies with the concept of Past life regression. There are two possible ways that you can know about your past life. One is through Meditation and Yoga (Spiritual) and the other is through a Past life regression session or comfortably, a hypnotic session (Psychology). Subconscious mind is eluded from the present stage and taken ages back which makes you feel what your past life was!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;It is evident that the technique for understanding past life was followed by spiritualists through yoga in ancient India. Patanjali Munivar, the father of Yoga had a detailed scripting of this technique and named it '&lt;b&gt;prati-prasav&lt;/b&gt;'. Prati-prasav when literally translated means 're-birth or reverse birth'. The aim of this technique was to understand the past life and solve problems of the current life. Karma, in Hinduism, is said to have a close follow in each and every soul. The troubles, the pleasures and almost everything that a soul faces in a particular birth is said to have happened/happening because of the Karma. Hence, apparently if one could understand his own Karma and solve related issues in the current life he may enable the soul for Moksha praapthi, which means the embodiment of the soul with the supreme soul.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Eventually Psychologists have also discovered that when a patient is made comfortable in a calm room,&amp;nbsp;hypnotized&amp;nbsp;and through Psychotherapeutic procedures past life memories can be&amp;nbsp;retrieved. The psychotherapeutic procedure involves nothing but asking questions to the subconscious mind taking it back year by year. Many patients have&amp;nbsp;exclaimed&amp;nbsp;that they were able to feel the warmth of being inside their mothers womb when they were in the session. The patient while having this session generally views and feels locations, relations which form a chain giving him an understanding though not fully, yet the most crucial part of his past life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Past life regression sessions can be a boon and a curse at times. In a book that I studied recently, a patient reports that he found the relations were weired in his past life and current life. He says, his mom in the past life happened to be his wife in current life and vice versa. These identifications may shatter your feeling psychologically. Yet, many feel that the session had been very useful since they could understand a few facts about their past life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Psychotherapists&amp;nbsp;are seriously interested in this particular feature of human brain. No wonder as they claim, through further researches, the source and the evolution of human life can be ultimately found out. Lets keep our fingers crossed.. Darwins Theory or Religious Theories? Who might be the winner?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-2477476323549105514?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/2477476323549105514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=2477476323549105514' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/2477476323549105514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/2477476323549105514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2010_08_31_archive.html#2477476323549105514' title='Past Life Regression - A realizing experience!'/><author><name>Varun R.

It increases the priority based on the mails you visit from a frequent mail-id and the frequency of reply. With this, again, all emails are internally organized based on priority and these settings can be adjusted manually also. Should you find a good mail, star it down for future reference. As simple as that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google as and always created a cartoon video for this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="745" width="1280"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5nt3gE9dGHQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5nt3gE9dGHQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="400"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out this cool feature and Enjoy GMail!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-1611495536986732587?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/1611495536986732587/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=1611495536986732587' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1611495536986732587'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1611495536986732587'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2010_08_30_archive.html#1611495536986732587' title='Gmail&apos;s New priority Inbox'/><author><name>Varun R.

Here goes a few options which you may find really useful.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; We have been seeing a lot of companies and people cheating in the name of part-time jobs. They brainwash people who wanna earn money and cheat them finally after extracting the max work they could. Now you people don't have to fall in trap of these people. I am referring or rather should i say recommending you the following sites so that you can earn with your potential. Everything is simple here. All you need is an internet connection and some spare time and earning online becomes easy as a piece of cake!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; 1.&lt;b&gt; www.tamilspider.com&lt;/b&gt; - This is a fabulous website which contains a lot of resources about Tamil Nadu and adjoining areas. Wide range of Topics right from Tamil Nadu culture to Kollywood are covered. Know something about Tamil Nadu ? Post them down here. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; 2. &lt;b&gt;www.chennaispider.com&lt;/b&gt; - Again - read the above para and sub Tamil Nadu = Chennai. Simply, everything about Chennai.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; 3. Feeling exhausted about these both? No worries. Here is one more site. &lt;b&gt;www. globalreviewchannel.com&lt;/b&gt; - another site which allows you to post reviews and details of any electronic products. And mind you, this site allows you to post a review about anything and everything in this world ... oh btw, be conscious of what you post since the site(s - all the above mentioned) have tough editors. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;How does this site pay you ? A genuine question. Of course, you need to know how this works if you are going to be a part of it. Well, all the above mentioned sites are partner sites of Spider network. Spider network has a handful number of websites which are registered under Google's Adsense revenue sharing API program. This means, if Google pays for the ads displayed, this site is going to share it with you. It would be apt to ask.. Do you believe in Google's Adsense? If yes, you can believe these sites. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; Now, why does Google pay these sites? As you all know, Google has got an API program called Google AdSense. You might have noticed the ads displayed by Google in many websites you surf generally. Purely business. The company which would like to advertise pays google for displaying ads and google displays them in your websites.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; How does Google display ad in relevance? Quite simple. As you search for a page, Google will determine the keywords and put in the relevant ads which also has the same keyword. For example, if you search for "Cheap Camera" Google may put up an ad from the Canon company. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now, if you have written an article about camera in your website and it hits the top list, google is gonna pay you money since a relevant ad is displayed. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So simply, even if you don't understand a bit of what is being written here (Please don't be so dumb :( ) you don't have to worry. Proceed with the links given below and start posting. Editors and webmasters are there to help you with all what is required. Post a Intro in the forum and start off with your part-time job.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; Hey, i missed something. Probably a happy news. You DONT have to pay even a single penny to do these. Just spare some time, use your brain and earn. It is your own money. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tamil Spider - &lt;a href="http://www.tamilspider.com/r/varunragunathan.aspx"&gt;Register here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Chennai Spider - &lt;a href="http://www.chennaispider.com/r/varunragunathan.aspx"&gt;Register here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Globalreviewchannel - &lt;a href="http://www.globalreviewchannel.com/r/varunragunathan.aspx"&gt;Register here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-7391794364839607896?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/7391794364839607896/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=7391794364839607896' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7391794364839607896'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7391794364839607896'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2010_08_30_archive.html#7391794364839607896' title='Earn form home, Earning Online'/><author><name>Varun R.

So bad it is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. What could possibly be the effect of streaming an &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;youtube&lt;/span&gt; video overnight?&lt;br /&gt;2. What will happen if you did not shutdown the computer operating Windows 7 overnight?&lt;br /&gt;3. What will happen if you get drenched in rain forgetting the mobile in your pocket..?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Had anyone faced similar problems? If not, let me give you an analysis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Case study no 1:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first two are almost the same. Let me combine it together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So actually, the system, operating windows 7 was not shutdown a whole night and the reason for not doing so was since I wanted to watch a hour of video in youtube the previous night and i got so irritated that i left it stream all the night (preferably i &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;din't&lt;/span&gt; wanna scream)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is how things can go wrong. If you are aware of Win 7, you 'll get this very quickly. Win 7 engine is designed for easy &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;taskbar&lt;/span&gt; usage. Simply, it puts all the similar applications in one icon in the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;taskbar&lt;/span&gt;, reducing a heck of space there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now this is what happened as the result of the above said problems..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SyO0UmFOFLI/AAAAAAAAAIA/97mQkU7SP2k/s1600-h/picture1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SyO0UmFOFLI/AAAAAAAAAIA/97mQkU7SP2k/s400/picture1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414369442942293170" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Okay.. took a view?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Right.. so it is very obvious that my system should run &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;mozilla&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;firefox&lt;/span&gt; as the icon says..

So you rush into the room, take a good towel, wipe the water away from the steel body and put it in charge...&lt;/p&gt;As you do that, the phone automatically turns on with vibration (&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;wowww&lt;/span&gt;..) further, the phone gets into flight mode and waits still. You try to change it ... you press the middle button, it shows you the Switch off menu... so now u press the Switch off button (u &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;knw&lt;/span&gt;.. human are always intelligent than the gadgets) .. you phone reacts to it by selecting the next option in that list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;You assume things are right and press the back button, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_12" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ur&lt;/span&gt; phone switches off..&lt;/p&gt;again u do the same.. u get the switch off menu.. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_13" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;nw&lt;/span&gt;, more carefully you press the green button (call button), the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_14" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ph&lt;/span&gt; switches off.. u go on do this with all the buttons aailable, yet &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_15" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; phone switches off...!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;well... so my N6300 is dead... !! :(&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;*Moral*&lt;/span&gt; I don't know when i would give it for a service or rather will i.. so better get me @ 22420470 ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tc&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;:((&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-3684162653643420517?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/3684162653643420517/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=3684162653643420517' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3684162653643420517'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3684162653643420517'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_12_12_archive.html#3684162653643420517' title='How my gizmos turned worse?'/><author><name>Varun R.

So if you do have the frailty with &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ur&lt;/span&gt; brain that i hold.., that is.. Speaking to yourself (putting it into place, debating yourself), this must sound interesting to you..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This evening as i went for a walk, somewhere &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;around&lt;/span&gt; half a kilometer from my place, it started to rain! Within seconds, before i could even wipe the water droplets off my specs, what i could see was people in my vicinity running off the road to the nearby stalls..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Aww&lt;/span&gt;.. what is this? why are these people running? It just rained...&lt;br /&gt;Me 2 (mind voice): oh come on.. they are afraid of rain...&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: Afraid of what...? Rain? ha ha... is rain a vampire?&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: Probably not. But they run to protect their valuables..&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;amm&lt;/span&gt;.. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;that's&lt;/span&gt; a nice point..&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: Okay, look at the nature, the rain. how beautiful it is!&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: Am looking at it.. and the gal in that shop too... :P&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: oh stop it man... u re drenched by the way.. do u really need to get to veils?&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: well.. i do not.. i prefer walking, enjoying rain..&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;hmm&lt;/span&gt;.. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;that's&lt;/span&gt; right.. proceed.. u have decided to drench in rain, anyway!&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: (looking at the skies) &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;hw&lt;/span&gt; beautiful this rain is!..&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: I still wonder what rain is all about.&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;awhhhohoho&lt;/span&gt;.. u wonder about the rain? Simple! listen up. You &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;knw&lt;/span&gt; ocean..? Rivers? lakes? all these are &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;basically&lt;/span&gt; water bodies. These water bodies get evaporated in hot sun. As a result the moisture content increases in the atmosphere. These when get saturated form wet clouds and they pour as rain.. isn't that easy? it is so simple as that!&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_12" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ahmm&lt;/span&gt;.. water gets evaporated from the sea..? do u have any kind of &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_13" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;RO&lt;/span&gt; plant up there?&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: ha ha. come on.. you don't..&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: So &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_14" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;hw&lt;/span&gt; is that the rain water is pure?&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: Rain water is not 100% pure.. u have some minerals, more salt contents and even a few percentage of acids due to chemical reactions...&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: mm.. so knowing all these you prefer getting soaked in rain?&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: huh.. that is not so harmful...&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: Oh.. so that means, you take bath in &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_16" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Koovam&lt;/span&gt; river water rite now and you give a damn to it?&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_17" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Whatttttt&lt;/span&gt;??&lt;br /&gt;Me 2: Ya.. obvious.. even &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_18" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;koovam&lt;/span&gt; has water .. and it... it gets evaporated..&lt;br /&gt;Me 1: Oh my heck!! where should i .. ah.. there is a shop!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Moral* : Do not discuss things with &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_19" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;urself&lt;/span&gt; when you enjoy something! :(&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-7787027647886608683?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/7787027647886608683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=7787027647886608683' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7787027647886608683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7787027647886608683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_12_12_archive.html#7787027647886608683' title='A stupid discussion'/><author><name>Varun R.

My very educated mother just showed us nine planets? If you did, you probably know what you are doing. If you dint, you probably need to get back to KG's. :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, this sentence is very famous in the 2nd or 3rd grades, if i remember right. The sentence helps to memorize the alignment order of the 9 planets in the universe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read it along.. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;M&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;y &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;V&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;ery &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;E&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;ducated &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;M&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;other  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;J&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;ust &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;S&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;howed &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;U&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;s &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;N&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;ine &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;P&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;lanets .. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doesn't that look good? I wonder if Indian schools teach this way.. Anyway, at Prince they did not [citation needed :P].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now, that is not the real problem. Am very worried about how the kiddies crossing the 2nd and 3rd grades will read the sentence as.. My very educated mother showed us nine..?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh.. nine... what? ahh, pluto is nt a planet now for that matter and it cannot be included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yay.. if you are still teaching kids "There are nine planets in this universe", behold.. Good to you till the kids are unbeknownst. The International Astronomical Union in the mid of the year 2006 voted Pluto to be a dwarf planet and it was excluded from the nine planets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"What....? Excluding a planet and that too Pluto? come on ... Pluto is the Planet discovered by America for the Americans.. You can't dare to exclude that.." and there was a rivalry possession that held when the exclusion poll was successful. you know.. this is why Americans are always strange! :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay .. now the conclusion is Pluto is not a Planet according to the same science that gave us Pluto.. well. I do not mean 'Pluto' the dog of mickey mouse.. aww Disney..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Q no. 1.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; when will Pluto be removed from the TN state board books or be it in Matriculation's even..? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Q no. 2.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Will there be a resistance from the 4th grade to 6th grade teachers of TN stating that the portions are not upto their knowledge since they had always learnt Pluto is one of the planets.?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Q no. 3.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Will there have to be a special training session for those teachers who still aren't aware of what Pluto actually is?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;.. many goes unanswered ... and the ultimate conclusion is.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*This will be Filed for Future Investigation and Reference* &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;probably there will be another planet peeking in by that time... :P&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-6811984895729082802?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/6811984895729082802/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=6811984895729082802' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/6811984895729082802'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/6811984895729082802'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_12_12_archive.html#6811984895729082802' title='Pluto Removed or not?'/><author><name>Varun R.

Not in the very near past, but for a very long time I have been hearing the songs from the album ThiruvAchakam, a symphony created by the maestro Illayaraja. I can't find words to express the amount of feel this album gives. The album, entirely is based on ThriuvAchakam, sung in appreciation of the deity, lord Shiva by Manikavasagar. It was considered once that ThiruvachAkam sung by Manikavasagar, cannot be adapted to any other tunes and all that has been done by him is the extreme limit. Many singers, who have sung the ThiruvachAgam song have closely sung to what Manikavasagar did. But, that is not what you expect from a Maestro. Illayaraja had given a new light of essence to the most beautifully furnished versus of ThiruvachAgam. With a mixture of Symphony, ThiruvachAgam is now a treasure. The album consists of 6 songs in total, amazingly constructed with Music Engineering. No words can match the pleasure this album delivers. Though this is about a God, anybody who hears it shall be taken away from this earth. I bet!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-5207855921810723979?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/5207855921810723979/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=5207855921810723979' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/5207855921810723979'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/5207855921810723979'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_11_12_archive.html#5207855921810723979' title='ThiruvachAgam'/><author><name>Varun R.

Different people, some from the high caste, some poor, some flattery, all those food item sellers… The bus stand, as and always, at least in a worldly, democratic county like India can have a lot of scopes from which people can understand a lot. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I din know either, why I were starring at some people… I was in a visual perception of watching the Earth form probably Mars or Moon. With a feeling of my very own fellow people as nothing but small creatures like amoeba, I presumed I was in the Domain, of the world, if at all it had one! I really appreciate and kneel before the Nature.. How many people? Unique -  as my friend use to say. Not just that was which in my mind, I still had a very few questions..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Time and situations decides man? Are we working under the knot of Time? What if time fails? So, are the people who were successful in life born with the blessings of time? Then why did the creator gave a Brain to each of us?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many times, at many places, we are not what we are. We speak, we fight, we be polite, we dwindle depending on time. Is time the most successful thing in this universe? Blaming the fate, unknowing what it really is or with what pen it had been written, had been and still is the excuse given by people on failures. We behave according to situations, without understanding the complexity, with knowing the issues, expecting something, unanswered with what and how. You can call it a part of life. At least life in this particular generation is such. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everyone of us are beggars in reality. The beggars of happiness. Some have wealth to buy the entire world but not the wealth to buy happiness. Where does this happiness comes from? The happiness you feel is you. Having said, the happiness is you, then you are the deciding authority. Sameness, as I would like to refer it as, is what we really require. Same at all the time. Easier said than done. When I feel I am the same anytime, I feel I am the best always. People gain confidence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would like to give a new perception regarding the statue of any temple here. I presume, people go to the temple, not because of just belief, problems, affairs, but I believe its because of the sameness, as I referred to it before. The statue is the same all time. Unless and until there are some RGB colored bulbs, glowed up to create some fantasy effect. Whenever we go to the temple, we see god as the way he is, he was and expecting the same. Expectation had merely or never failed here, in this case. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The same principle, sameness is what I wish everyone had… if that case prevails, let the unique person be unique all time. 100 million unique people with their same character, till death….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paaaaaaaammmmmmmmm  paaaaammmm --- waking up…. oh oh.. that's my bus. I need to leave now. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-1175320834057538323?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/1175320834057538323/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=1175320834057538323' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1175320834057538323'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1175320834057538323'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_02_27_archive.html#1175320834057538323' title='Are we what we are?'/><author><name>Varun R.

With lots of surprises, i looked behind, to find a young little girl, who merely looked like an angel holding a smile of trust, wisdom, power and victory.&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  I had never known her before and never did i remember of seeing her anywhere. With 'n' number of questions and a dilemma about the beautiful little girl, something forced me to speak to her. My fruity conscious forced me to speak but my 'studied-mind' refused. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Gaining confidence with whatever i had, I uttered a word of silence to her. She smiled, as if she understood my word of silence, which took me aback. Still knowing the spirit within her, which i felt directly through my eyes into my mind, i concluded she isn't a mistake.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  With a dwindled thought, when i was about to speak to her, she questioned, "Why do you look worried?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  I without knowing the sense of her intelligence, tried not to abandon. I replied in anguish, "Do I look worried?" And with a gorgeous smile, as if she understood my whole life, replied "I said -You are worried!" That little phrase and the delivery of her words, took me up into her. I was staggered when i thought and felt that I was in Love with her at that moment. Recognizing myself, I understood that it was just a feeling that i wanted to share my 'burdens of life' with her. She nodded positively, as if she heard what I thought and exclaimed, "That is why am here for!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Shocked at what she said, I looked at her face. Again the same Gorgeous and Victorious smile. "I know you well", she remarked, "And am here, to lift you up from your worries".  Astonishingly, I asked her, "You know me?" and she nodded again. Me, without knowing the fact or incapable of sensing her wisdom, agreed her for her nods. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  I cross-checked that I weren't dreaming. No, I wasn't. With a forceful feeling of driving consciousness which wanted me to share everything with her, I asked, "How do I trust You?" Gently touching me, she replied, "You can trust me better than Nature." having never heard such trusty words, from anyone, till now, in my life, I said, "Okay. I will share my hardy' with you, which life gave me."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  With a sense of abhorrent life, I started ...... "Life had given me just nothing. When I was a kid, I din have the love of my parents. I was an Orphan. I dint have a home. I was not guided by people who are of my DNA. I was living abjected. I never had the pleasure of kids, for what they had. I was abased by people as an Orphan. I had none to take care of me, to love me, to watch me and to feed me. Days grew and i grew ---- &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; When i was 4 y/o, if i do hardly remember, St. Louis picked me up from the Corner-Street, the street where i used to 'BEG' people for a single paise. People who had BENZ car and a DOG inside the A/C car, did not like to see me at least as a child in the Human caste. They drove me off the car shouting for making their car dirty since i touched them..." &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;             [ A pause with tears in eyes (or.. eyes in tears!) filled with horror and pain with a sore throat -------------------]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  "St. Louis the lord who saved me, took me to the St. Louis Orphan for kids, where my heart throbbed to see hundreds of kids, just like me at the age of varying 4-6 without parents or guardians. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Parent-less kids are far better, I had thought when I saw parents who orphan their kids cos he/she is lame, paralytic, dumb etc.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  St. Louis orphan made me a human out of a beggar, I din know, if begging was into my DNA... I wouldn't have started it as a profession at the age of 3, then... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;    [Tears block my eyes....]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  The young girl touched me and said, "I am here to hear you..." That gave me some undefinable confidence. More than what a girl can give to a boy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Still i continued, "My love for my parents ended there. I perceived some knowledge through a Govt. run Orphan school. My life was still miserable there. I had to clean the classrooms, Wash-clean the TOILETS, sweep the ground and much more. And only a few people who did not fare well in academics were selected to do these jobs. And, i was one, among the &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;3 &lt;/span&gt;in the entire school. I still managed to study hard, but life didn't me to. St. Louis met his end of the journey of life and for the sake of Finance, the Orphan was closed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Kids there were taken care of another Orphanage and the selection was made according to academics. Only &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;2 &lt;/span&gt;were thrown out. Me and the other guy. Lucky him, he managed to step in another Orphanage. But ME?? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; [A SIGH!--]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Back to the corner-street, where i was begging before. I thought of starting back my old profession ie., begging. But my instinct stopped me. I knew by myself that i am a hard worker. Deciding to work harder, i worked as a Milk-Boy form 5 a.m to 6 a.m and as Paper-boy from 6 a.m to 7 a.m. Rs. 5/- per day. That was sufficient, since I took food, only ONCE a day. Rejoining back at the Orphan School, i studied more harder before, over my potential to play GOD. Well, i was rewarded. I was the school topper for 12th. Later, with all those Rs. 3 saved all day, I joined the MARX UNIVERSITY of SCIENCE. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  And now, i own a Computer Accessory Company with turn over of Millions, at the age of 28. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But still, I have a duty left. The Orphanage - St. Louis Orphanage. I need to eradicate the orphans and make everyone Love life as I do now -!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  And with this said, when I turned back, I still saw the beautiful girl with the same smile standing besides me. She was more vivid than before. She exclaimed,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;    &lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;       You wanted to feel ME,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;      You Understood ME, as I am,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;     The best results come when you work harder and harder.&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;    And since you wanted to speak to me,&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;   Am before you and people call me.... &lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;--- LIFE!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;said the young girl and bid me a good-bye. I still wish I had her with me. Btw, I am 60y/o now, married. Have two children, one in US as S/W Engineer, and the other as CA in Australia. .... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My life is beautiful and it had been always, since i started working harder.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  - And yeah, I am the President of St. Louis Orphanage now....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-6495197758117027328?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/6495197758117027328/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=6495197758117027328' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/6495197758117027328'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/6495197758117027328'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2009_02_08_archive.html#6495197758117027328' title='The Girl who touched ME'/><author><name>Varun R.

We still don't ever know which was the beautiful day in our life. sometimes we feel a day, which we spent with friends or family or best ones in our life, the most beautiful. But this day is overcome by some other, when we spend a day with more good people. Okay now. Not getting into the history of the beautiful day ever, lets check out on how to live a day beautifully. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;             &lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SWjq6MHBrfI/AAAAAAAAAF0/AZWydqSQjOs/s200/siyah1pu8nw2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; Ideas, thoughts and actions decide our personality and habit. Refinement of these, possibilities of analyzing people before we interact will help one to have a good day also gets he, good relations and good people. Some of the best times of a day should really be when we see, feel, hear good feelings and persons around and when we feel that we have value, when we feel that we are heard, considered. This can not only turn up our day beautiful but, giving such an opportunity to others also gives a possibility of making their day beautiful. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; man as he is a social animal, never can get good ideas, all of himself alone at all times. Though he thinks, his is the best, he always should remember, the ultimate is not what he thinks. Chances, when given to others may make us realize what's more in the subject. Not only that, the second person feels he has done his best and would be more motivated. Now, chances alone don't speak all time. One more factor, that is more than a petrol for a car, is Appreciation. Two little words, "Good Job" can make yours and the other subjects day more beautiful. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; Waking up early in the morning, going to job, returning, watching TV, back to bed had been our routine. Okay, this is unchangeable. But there is something that you can change, out of all these. As soon as you wake up, take the choice of living at your best this day. Wake up early in the morning, praying god or meditating can do wonders in a day. These little things, reduces the B.P. With the prayer add up a few sentences about the earth, the life in general. Just think "Let every life be happy. Let every life be fulfilled". And thats enough for a super-day startup.  More than this, while praying, give a try on this. Maintaining silence, concentrating your inner body should make you feel wonderful. Try absorbing your breath. Do not breath forcefully for this sake. Just absorb your normal breath.. don think of anything for a few min.. If you tend to be diverted, concentrate back on breathing. This can make you feel the change.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; Now, having started a new, beautiful day, the remaining time you spend must be logical, unsophisticated and too relaxed. Remember that you are not here as to die the next moment. Enjoy everything around. Find the beautiful people or .. should i say, the beauties of people around you.. Speak to them of what they like. Hold a smile always. Never flatter. Be adaptive. Analyze the person before you comment of anything. Ask a sorry if something goes wrong. Please if you need a help and Appreciate if you like what they did. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Having people who trust you and be good to you is the only thing that can make you feel 'happy'. I mean happy in terms of heart. Not the materialistic happiness. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;remember, true happiness is what when you feel you have got something and you don want more of it. Speaking about materialistic happiness i said before, you need more of it.. More of gadgets, more of money and whatsoever. When you get a 10 billion, you need a 20 billion. When u get that, u again need more and this is endless and you are never going to be happy with what you get. But, "Hey you have don the job perfectly!" never requires anything more. Also a hug, irrespective of position, status, discipline [Not to say, i did not mention GENDER. Be carful wen u hug ladies.. ;)] can really turn the others on. You yourself will also feel so beautiful. The happiness you feel may be just for a minute, but mark me, that is what you call true happiness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; okay, now back in the evening.  Nothing could be more good than a family group discussion.. Its lively..

Born and brought up with windows, were I. I din feel Windows boring, in spite of whatever freezes and crashes i ever faced wid Win-do(se)ws. Ignorance took over me to windows. I knew something good than Windows doesn't exists, rite frm my 8th std., the time we bought a PC. In fact, i was familiar about something called Linux, Red-Hat Linux but din want to know about it much in those young days cos i heard people saying it was all about codes.. U can't access the PC without knowing atleast a few basics of coding. Well, what else could i do, when i din have anyother option left other than the unopened curtains of Windows? Continued with it... Moreover, i still love billy very much.. for his hard-works, for his personality, his specs (i love the way he adjusts his glasses), his hairstyle etc etc. I hardly remember if i had missed any TV shows where Bill was the hero. Well, i know this would be a silly excuse for using windows ;) but i din't really wanna crash my PC, trying something new. Never, now! To say, am out of the doors or windows.. with something called Ubuntu. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1PQGOFPtI/AAAAAAAAAFc/u3gHnZFX8PM/s1600-h/ubuntu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281965075941637842" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1PQGOFPtI/AAAAAAAAAFc/u3gHnZFX8PM/s200/ubuntu.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ubuntu:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ubuntu is, as said earlier, a really powerful operating system, which is based on Linux. Advantages are heaven in Ubuntu. Right from the desktop to the backend of database management, Ubuntu can be powerfully used. More with GUI as user Interactions, one can use Ubuntu, without even knowing what a Terminal is! Btw, terminal is a note pad like thing where u can ask ubuntu to do ur desired stuff like application installing etc (&lt;em&gt;apt-get install&lt;/em&gt;, is the code). Something similar to Run/cmd/command in Windows, but million times powerful than that. Ubuntu is a freeware, open source OS. Canonical Systems, the coders of Ubuntu has given a Public Licence to it. Look at this! You need to pay thousands of bucks for a crap, where later u would probably have to do an updation of hardware components, because the crap you got did not detect them. Whilst, you get the most powerful distro free and pay nothing else other than some time to order a CD in Ubuntu's official website. And yeah.. coming back to Linux.. there is one thing people always confuse with. (even did i :p) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1Pdtkr0_I/AAAAAAAAAFk/iW1wsyT2HQo/s1600-h/ubuntu1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281965309843723250" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1Pdtkr0_I/AAAAAAAAAFk/iW1wsyT2HQo/s200/ubuntu1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Linux: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Linux, first of all, as many consider, is not an Operating System. Precisely, its just the base of the operating System, over which the original OS is built. say, to compare with Windows, Windows runs on a base called 'Kernel'. Over kernel, is built the actual OS, be it Xp or Vista or whatsoever. Similarly, Linux is the base on which OS's like Red-Hat, Ubuntu and such. The most popular GUI's used in Linux includes KDE, GNOME etc. Both uses different types of GUI and gives different interfaces and appearance. Linux is named after Linus Torvalds, the inventor of this powerful kernel. Linux is very powerful at servers and can be installed with mainframe to super computers and operates with command line processing. Well, thats actually history. The Ubuntu distro has made Linux a fruitful experience to a common man who doesn even knows the A's of coding. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1QHyLIhLI/AAAAAAAAAFs/StyRBlDqWlA/s1600-h/ubuntu810alpha4-large_014.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281966032633234610" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 160px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SU1QHyLIhLI/AAAAAAAAAFs/StyRBlDqWlA/s200/ubuntu810alpha4-large_014.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Ubuntu?:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I use Ubuntu right now.. I ll mention a few advantages... I don wanna compare it with Windows and waste time... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;1. High speed. My PC starts up within a matter of 10 seconds.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;2. Highly customizable. I don find any walls as in the former. All the Windows are open wide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;3. Adding and Removing programs are never made much easier. 4. A manager which can detect all the applications in your system, do updates promptly, with which you can just install any applications ever available for Ubuntu. U don really have to go bugging websites and take pain in downloading torrents.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;5. Security options. No one can use even a partition of my hard-disk without my password.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;6. No Freezing points.. I ve been using ubuntu for atleast 2 months from now and i rarely or never experienced any crashes. My PC is now a good boy :p.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;7. Virus free.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;8. Multiple options to operate the System.. GUI or Terminal, which maybe effective sometimes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;9. No drivers necessary. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;10. I got it for Free!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;_______________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Wanna check ubuntu?? well, here u go.. &lt;a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/"&gt;http://www.ubuntu.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;all the best. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-3468234235643429668?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/3468234235643429668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=3468234235643429668' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3468234235643429668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3468234235643429668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2008_12_20_archive.html#3468234235643429668' title='Ubuntu a Powerful Operating System ...'/><author><name>Varun R.

The expectations were really a short-lived one, not only to the techies, but even to those home users, who just use their system to play games, hear music and watch movies. The release had bugs wid Drivers and with many of the applications. Applications and Drivers which were designed for XP, failed to take a lump less drive over Vista. If to mention, the serious bug wid which Vista had with nVidia really pissed off many gamers. Too much of security alerts, which though useful, were felt a stupidity among common users. Bound to the walls of Microsoft, users had only used the options which Vista forced them to. Not that Vista was made for Users; Users were made for Vista. But to mention, this had been a claim of Windows right from the beginning. Vista as informed earlier, managed to get the users attention through a simple GUI. Aero, called it Microsoft. Glass schemes of windows and lighting effects made Vista look cool and always better, attracted ppl as such. Later the regression they made is well known.. But later, M$ managed to correct the bugs with the SP1 release of Vista. And now, many applications have support for Vista and driver bugs are corrected and remolded. These times, i don't think one (speaking about the end user) will have to struggle much with Vista, except for the exceptionally asked security questions, which often blows our hats off. But still there are complaints about Vista eating up really a tough space in the hard-disk and the user is unknown for what it happens. I was even stunned to know that after installing Vista and running my PC idle for a few hours, nearly 2 GB missing on my 40 GB hard-disk, whilst the installation took only 7 GB. Later i managed to tweak it up and fixed it, anyways. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The new endeavor:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;After Vista, which sold at a rate, nearly two times half than that of XP, M$ is on its next project, which MS calls, Windows 7. MS claims this to be built mostly in accordance with Vista based technicalities, so the user need not to have face weird problems, as they did in Vista. Elegant, Supportive, Clean, Technically fit, Entertainment, Environmental are some keywords to Windows 7. I don think, MS will give much new as in a transition from XP to Vista. But, advancements in what Vista was supposed to have and what it failed to do, will be added up or rectified in Windows 7. But, who knows? MS is purely unpredictable. Official blog says, MS would release Windows 7 in 2010. But the release could be made even sooner, because they don ve to code from the kernel level. The OS can be an assurance for sure, to all its users with Vista of compatibility related issues. Drivers and applications which run successfully in Vista will run in ease even here. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Hope we hear something good from Microsoft corporation about the doors of Windows 7. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;For more informations and follow-up's visit : &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/"&gt;http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-3165282530120125454?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/3165282530120125454/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=3165282530120125454' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3165282530120125454'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3165282530120125454'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2008_12_20_archive.html#3165282530120125454' title='Microsoft - back wid the next endeavor ..'/><author><name>Varun R.

Where are we from? Whom did we come from? How did our evolution take place? Are we from monkeys? Then who created the first bacteria of the World? From where did it evolve? &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;lotsa&lt;/span&gt; questions, as such.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Theists say "Its all from God.. God created the Universe, the Planet, the Atmosphere, Water, Land, Bacterias, Viruses, Animals, Plants, Human". well, good in that case. Belief is always the answer for an unknown question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And back to Darwin's theory, Sir Darwin proposed a theory.. famously called as the 'Theory of evolution'. According to him, each and every creature on this planet, is created with a factor so called, "decent with modification". The theory says, Everything is descended from its ancestors. trees, animals, human and everything {We must have been from an amoeba then, not from monkey :p}. Also adds up, when such a transition occur, the beneficial mutations still remain as in the ancestor, but the next advancement of the gene would be radical. Say, Human, as of now, is considered to have taken his evolution from a monkey. The advancement we have is the addition of one more sense, absence of tail etc. Its just a structural advancement we have, considers the Theory of Evolution. This process of advancement, was coined by a term 'natural selection', by Darwin. Say, the theory proposes, there must have been something, which existed before the butterflies, which cannot fly but had the properties of a butterfly. Say the fore-runner is X, the butterfly should have inherited a few properties from X and should have developed the capability of flying. The X should have gradually got extinct and what exists is actually the butterfly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the transition can not happen in a leap. It takes &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;lotta&lt;/span&gt; time. It takes place slowly and very slowly. Darwin further said, if under any discussion, it is to be proved that any organ/part of a creature existed without successive building of them, from their ancestors, the theory of Evolution would obviously break down. Such an organ, if formed, would come under 'irreducibly complex system'. The Irreducibly Complex System is something which contains many complex parts, where the entire organ fails to function properly, if any one single part of the organ fails. Say, you have a two wheeler. You wont be able to run a two wheeler, which is a complex system without tyres or engine or handlebar. You need these integral parts of the complex system to run the two wheeler good. Now, in the same case discussion, there is no chance that the System of the two wheeler can be evolved part by part.

Having booked a cab from a taxi center, the travel took around two and half an hours to reach the temple. 8.30 was the time, when we stepped our foot at Sholingur. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Sholingur, outwards, is located near Tirutani and Arakanom, from either sides. A 10km journey from Arakonam will land you in Sholingur. Located in Tiruvallur district. The earth near temple are mostly unplotted. Mostly covered by mountains and hills, Sholingur, is really a good place, provided there is no effect of the striking sun. A calm whether can make Sholingur LN temple trip a most memorable one. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Two major temples, located over the hills. 1. Lakshmi Narahsimha Swami, 2. Anjaneya Swami. Nevertheless located on two different hills, the altitude is more or less the same. The LN(Lakshmi Narahsimha) Swami temple contains around 1,350 steps from the down-hill. Not so very steep, except very few such places. The statue of Narahsimha, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, is placed here and called as Yoga Narahsimhar. 'Narahsimha' avatar of Lord Vishnu is derived from the two words, Narayanan (Lord Vishnu)+Simham(Lion). LN has a body of an ordinary man, as of Lord Vishnu and head of a Simham (Lion). Avatar motive was to kill Iranya kasibu, a wicked dictator and to save the world. LNr is believed to be one of the most powerful GOD. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;The temple located over the hill, is full of Monkeys. One can see Family's of monkeys going here and there..

Staring: Suriya, Simran, Sameera Reddy, Divya &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Direction:Gautham Menon &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Music:Harris Jayaraj &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The movie starts up with Suriya, Army Major, on a helicopter for a mission to save a lady kidnapped by terrorists. He receives a message that his dad is dead! Goutham, the director, has beautifully added two perspectives here. One is as we, the audience see the film and the other, the self-perspective. Suriya, himself watches the scene... I must say, he has handled both very well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The story speaks about a dad, son and his love. Suriya has dual played dad and son character. A 5 star rating for his acting/dedication on this movie. Particularly, during the scenes of emotions.. he speaks to audience that he is irresistible! Also as a dad, at the ages of 20-80, his acting has made an impact.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The director has seriously swiped away many hearts through his 'flawless emotional' scenes. Also with a plus of the hero, the scenes should have been more than what they expected. I also liked the camera techniques and total shoot up... Interestingly, the film doesn't have any comedy track.. but this is not a story which must be made commercial with fights, comedies etc. What should be there is there. Many places, i found the movie to touch reality. Of course a few fanatics are there, but after all its acceptable as a film. Art works are also to the mark. Backgrounds for songs, the bomb-blasted building etc shows some good piece of work. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first half was a bit stretchy, i felt. Second was quite okay. The movie on the first half was more natural. As a dad, suriya's feelings for his son about his growth is shown vivaciously. As a son, as well. Dad's way of or should i call, skill of growing a kid worked out very well. Suriya as a kid loved his dad more than anyone. 'His dad, was his Hero'. The movie stands an example supporting to those who say, "Treat ur boy as ur friend." And Suriya - 2 (son) doesn't take advantage over the freeness given to him, instead in real terms, understands life clearly, as his dad.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later, Suriya - 2 falls in love with a girl, 'Meghana' during his journey in train. He follows her madly, even to the US, in search of her. Though mite look aberrant, but its acceptable in some sense, because, he loved her that much; it was not lust, he had upon her; and he did not fall in love with anyother girl after seeing her. Even here, his dad was his inspiration coz his dad's marriage was a love marriage. He always knew that even at the age of later 60's his dad loves his mom as he loved in 20's. Well, but his love did not make more filmy-fantasies. He did not go in search of her disregarding his duties. He overcame his dad's debts, built an office for himself and was kinda avg-ly settled in life and only then he went to US, in search of her (this is really a good part of the story). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But unfortunately, the lady-love dies in a bomb-blast in US. Well, after this the real artistic maestro of suriya comes up. The way he acts after conveying his love's death to his dad, really took me into the screen.. And later comes the ordinary, usual part of a commercial film of him becoming a drug addict. Again, comes his dad, to help him out from addiction. A parents love can really change a kid is clearly shown in this movie. But this lucky man gets another lady-love in the second half, where he saves a child of his friend, who stood besides him wen returning frm US, after his darling's death. Not so fanatic here, coz the gal, loves him. But she was also crazy in love at him, as he was with Meghana. Hence he accepts. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally dad gets a throat cancer. Though operated, he dies.. and that is where the story begins! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The songs in the film are so good. 'Ava ena ena thedi vantha anjala' song shows a feeling of a guy whose lady-love has died, very aptly! Other songs, as in duet were all good. BGM's are not so very well made. but on-a-whole, acceptable. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Irrefutably: Emotionally overwhelming play. A few scenes can be classified into 'must-see' channel. No comedy tracks, but it isn't a drawback. 90% reality touch up. Overall rating 70%&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A_4tYccR4d0/SS2vUfOQrlI/AAAAAAAAACM/JQKILEheud8/s1600-h/vaaranam-aayiram.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-7804445924026915632?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/7804445924026915632/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=7804445924026915632' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7804445924026915632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7804445924026915632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2008_11_26_archive.html#7804445924026915632' title='Vaarnam Ayiram'/><author><name>Varun R.

After a long time, into this blogger, for a crucial discussion about the Talk of the Town on the End Days of Earth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Hypothesis always creates terrific buzz about anything handled. As it does with the World, rite now. Followed with a milieu of Prophecy's, Insights and many other happenings of the world, a strong conclusion on the death of the world is being resolute. But, as an educated one, I need not have to believe the Prophecy's or Hypothesis' either. Well... what else do i do when Science also asks me to believe something like this? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;A very rare case, where a Hypothesis coincides with Science has happened here. Agreed. Science' base is hypothesis. But still, the hypothesis doesn' come true according to Science all time, though an outcome of a hypothetical research is different. Either fortunately or unfortunately, we have something like that here. Simply summing up, "Science coincides with Hypothesis" here. Means, Science says, the "world is to end by 2012"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;"Oh! com'on buddy... Kidding, aren't U?" .. No! am not! very much seriously having considered and researched about this issue, Hypothesis and Science says the same about the end of the world. One small difference is, Science says the world will end at this particular time whilst Hypothesis, doesn' have any accuracy. But that is not what matters.. Would u be happy if your doc gives time for your life? OMG! Now, I hate Science!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;OK now.

Though there were a few civilizations of the Hopi Indians, Greeks, Incas etc, they were not as familiar as the Mayans were. Those intelligent Mayans wrote a calendar. (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;That is the most worst thing they must ve&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; done along their civilization - Personally&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;). Mayan calendar, the mysterious one did not have any numbers as we use in our present calendar system. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Their calendar contains symbols of Goat, Rat, Skull and others (well... quite complicated, though). The entire calendar is divided into Three groups. "Religion, Solar calendar, Long count"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Focusing on what we really need rite now, The "Long Count", is what that tells the end of the world is by 2012. Yes, Long count has the dates written from the first day of their civilization.ie., the first day would be 0.0.0.0.1(religion.year.month.day.long count). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The first day of this calendar, when converted into our system (we follow Gregorian system of calendar calculation), it is, August, 3114 B.C. The Mayans predicted, after 25,800 yrs from this date, there will be destruction and recreation of the world. And the calendar ends up with a date '12.19.19.17.20' which in our calendar means "21, December.,2012"..!! Happy? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;2. The Bible Prophecy:-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The Holy Bible! Aloha... Our bible has a few insights about the end of the world! Though not extremely exact (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Said that even Jesus &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;didn't&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; know the end time of the world. Only his father did!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;), but speaks about the end days' sufferings of the people living in the world. Wars, Weapons, Anti-Christ powers, One more pope, Starvation, Climatic variances includes them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Bible Scripture describes a war in the latter days in the middle east. Something will happen that will cause the flesh to melt off the bones and the eyes out of the sockets (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;this may be an outcome of Nuclear bomb blast! - Persona&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;l&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The Bible, in the Book of Revelation, tells of how the end of our time ends and the next begins. Money, Stocks, Bonds, Gold, Silver … all will be worthless. Mountains will turn into valleys and valleys into mountains. There will be bitter cold, starvation, little or no shelter available. Those who survive will never die. Yahweh (Heavenly Father and His Son Yahshua&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; the Messiah) will be the focus of the new world that will be born from this catastrophe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The Catholic church is only supposed to have 1 more POPE before 2012. That POPE will admit that they have been misleading the church for hundreds of years causing a renewal to occur in the Catholic Faith (Among the total 112 Pope's, the present Benedict XVI is 111th &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;[SIGH --!]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;3.

In America, the biggest volcano we have is the Yellowstone Caldera. The bottom of Yellowstone Lake has risen over 100 feet in the last 50 years. If the volcano is to blow its top off, it would take a revenge for more than 1600 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Mt's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; of land around it.

Not to mention about the quake that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;occurred&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; in China a few months back, where thousands died.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:white;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The Polar ice caps are melting, not due to “global warming” as claimed by global warming activists, but due to the earth’s magnetic poles shifting. As this shift occurs, we are seeing large sections of ice sheets break off at both poles. The earth will change its tilt and its axis will realign once the pole shift completes. Desert regions may now become plush gardens and vice versa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Not only these, many parts of earth are being destroyed in various means..

Science is fully based on Logic's and Calculations. So, obviously, if science considers this issue worthwhile, there must be some calculations and of course a Principle, behind this. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Very basically, everyone must know that every 11 yrs our sun goes through something called the "Solar Cycle"(pole shift or magnetic reversal). During the peak time of this transformation, the Sun's poles switch. Means, North pole comes to south and South to North. And during this flip of poles, the sun spots become max, also increasing the amount of the 'Solar Flares'. These flares, if falls on earth, no doubt causes devastating effects all through.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  During the early 2001, sun flipped off its poles after 1989 and is due to flip in 2012. But... "Hey.. sun has flipped the poles off many times.. then why do u stress it?" &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;here, i have the answer. Obvious that sun had flipped off the poles many times. But something is very much significant in the year 2012. They are...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;During this time the two biggest planets in our solar system, Saturn and Jupiter, will be in line with each other and the planet X will arrive aligned to assist the two big planets. The gravitational effects of the three planets on the Sun will cause it to wobble during it's pole shift. This can have huge effects on the magnitude of the (Coronal Mass Ejection) CME's the Sun will be tossing into space. The Earth regularly gets hit with small CME's and research says that the increased magnitude of these CME's are one of the major causes of global warming, and changes in the ecosystem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; Right now the Sun's south magnetic pole is in line with the Earth's north magnetic pole. Since opposites attract, the Sun, along with it's gravitational influence from Saturn, Jupiter and Nibru may cause the Earth to switch magnetic poles too! With the magnetic field of the Earth switching in a matter of minutes, there can be huge disruptions in the Earth's geological and ecological system. It can cause mass earthquakes and volcano eruptions all over the world. After it's all done, compasses will point South, the Sun will rise in the West and set in the East. But remember, this is a magnetic switch only.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Now, introducing a new term "polar Wander", which means, the earth's poles, the North and the South shifts to the other. The magnetic poles may remain the same. But Antarctica may be Equator and vice versa. This must really be a catastrophic effect that too if you could imagine this change happening in a matter of minutes. A complete wobble in earth causing the tectonic plates to move away from place which may lead to all before mentioned devastation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Astronomical data proves that our Solar system has been hovering above the galaxy for the past years and in another four years, it may start revolving on the other side. So obviously, it must reach the "Center point" of the galaxy. This point is what Mayans called 'The End' and this day ie.,211212 was their calendars end point. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; At this centre point, the entire earth would take a re transformation. Need not to be astonished even if the earth starts revolving in the anticlockwise direction.  As per calculations, the event of juncture with the Galaxy is supposed to take place at 11:12 GMT. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;   Well that's up til now. Science also informs the world is to die soon. I don give you any assurance! rather when Jesus, himself couldn'. But i can say one thing. Strongly, the above para is build up on mathematical calculations. If that's gonna fail, the entire astronomical data must fail. Means 24 hrs is not equal to a day! 365 days is not equal to a year!! If these aren't false, then the 11:12 GMT must be true. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  There are many more hypothesis coming true like the Chinese I Ching. But, for immediate discussion, i ve taken a few through which things can be explained easily. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;   Hypothesis is also coming true and so is science. Lets hope for the best. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Love others, at least we have only a 4 yrs left. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many more unanswered questions are left to be answered! Time, the healer of everything has an answer. Lets believe in Humane now, rather than minding about the death!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:x-small;"&gt;Thanks to December 2012 Network and articles posters there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-1713102649989222985?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/1713102649989222985/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=1713102649989222985' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1713102649989222985'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1713102649989222985'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2008_09_26_archive.html#1713102649989222985' title='World in 2012 (part 2)'/><author><name>Varun R.

In these traditions, soul is supposed to have incorporated in all living things! Souls are generally considered to be immortal! well.. I was reading the Bhagvad Gita, a few hrs back and found something abt the Soul! Lord krishna, in the Bhagvad Gita says, Soul is the most microscopic thing, which can never been seen even with the most powerful microscope. But the soul can be realized, in deep meditation state.&lt;br /&gt;Hinduism has two classifications for everything. One the Dvaita(Dualistic) and the Advaita(non-dualistic).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Advaita or non-dualistic conception of the soul accords its union with Brahman, the absolute uncreated (roughly, the Godhead), in eventuality or in pre-existing fact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dvaita or Dualistic concepts reject this, instead identifying the soul as part and parcel of super soul (GOD), but it never lose it's identity. That is where we as an individual get an identity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jevan/Atma.. are the terms referred to Soul, in Sanskrit, which is supposed to be the God's Own Language. The 'Atma' is seen as the portion of Lord Bramha, who is responsible for creating lives, on this earth, according to Hinduism! And Hinduism has many beliefs, on the origin, the purpose and the fate of the soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"A soul is neither created nor destroyed. It jus transmigrates from one form to another, depending on the deeds, done during the last birth [Karma]. And the most ultimate end of the soul is reaching Me, which will happen wen one constantly thinks about Me, and is highly devoted to Me", says the Lord, in the Holy book of The Hindus!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The god compares our body to a cloth! Wen we get a new cloth, we wear it. Wen it gets torn, we throw it. Similarly does the soul in our body. Wen our body gets older, it leaves the body and reaches God. It is again migrated to some other body and this process continues!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"A wise man never considers death as a separating factor", says He, "since he knows, there is no death for atma!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Christianity:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Christianity, also one of the most spread religion in the world, deals atma/soul the same way as Hinduism dealt!&lt;br /&gt;The clearest and most concise inspired definition of death was written by King Solomon, “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it”&lt;span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt; (Ecclesiastes&lt;/span&gt; 12:7). Some christians believe on the Judgment day, where the soul of the dead person will reach the god and based on the deeds and his repenting, he enjoys eternal frienship with God, in the heaven. But, if not, he would be returned back to the Earth and a birth according to his deeds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is an other group in christianity, which says, Soul is the essence of human Life and the soul dies with the dead body. Aristotle compared the body to a knife and the cutting action to the Soul. He remarked, "The soul is the essence of the life and it eventually dies as the body is dead. As we use the knife, if the knife is the body, then the cutting action is the soul. wen there is no knife, there is no cutting action. Hence, the essence of the knife, which was the cutting action is killed wen the knife fatigues out. And the similar things happen, when the body is dead!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;These are similar to Dvaita and Advaita in Hinduism!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Islamic:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Generally, it is believed that all living beings are comprised of two aspects during their existence: The physical (being the body) and the non-physical (being the soul). The non-physical aspect, namely the soul, is one's soul-related activities like his/her feelings and emotions, thoughts, Conscious and Sub-Conscious desires and objectives. While the body and its physical actions serve as a “reflection” of one’s soul, whether it was good or evil, and thus "confirms" the extent of such intentions&lt;sup class="noprint Template-Fact"&gt;&lt;span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources since December 2007" style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At death, the person's soul transitions to an eternal afterlife of bliss, peace and unending spiritual growth until the day of judgment where both the body and soul are re-united for judgment at which point the person is either rewarded by going to heaven if he has followed God's commands or punished if he has disobeyed Him (Qur’an 66:8, 39:20).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Mixture to Dvaita and Advaita!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Jainism:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;The soul is without taste, colour and cannot be perceived by the five senses. Consciousness is its chief attribute. Know the soul to be free of any gender and not bound by any dimensions of shape and size. &lt;p&gt;Hence the soul according to Jainism is indestructible and permanent from the point of view of substance. It is temporary and ever changing from the point of view of its modes. The soul continuously undergoes modifications as per the Karma it attracts and hence reincarnates in the following four states of existence - 1) as a Demi-God in Heaven, or 2) as a tormented soul in Hell, or 3) as a Human being on Continents , or 4) as an Animal, or a Plant, or as a Micro-organism.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;As in Dvaita!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a conclusion, Soul is something, which is never destroyed! nobody can understand Brahmam, which is the ultimate of everything in this universe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the most better conclusion, i would like to say after all these work is, this simple message proves that God is the Same, irrespective of the religion! He is in different forms, different styles but ultimately, the One and the Only One!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-660727660980796374?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/660727660980796374/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=660727660980796374' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/660727660980796374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/660727660980796374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2008_01_19_archive.html#660727660980796374' title='Soul'/><author><name>Varun R.

Self-hypnosis can be practiced at any time. Its gud to follow this in the evenings, wen the stress load of day work is removed and u re getting ready for an enjoyable, wonderful evening. But, i prefer doing this in night, before going to sleep. This is because one can hypnotise himself only for some 20-30 min. After then, either the person would wake up automatically or will fall asleep. So, it will be more convenient, if one follows this in night on his bed, so that he can go to sleep directly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. So, now next step after lying on the sofa or bed, stretch &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; arms and legs and relax &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; muscles. hold &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; fist tightly, as tight as possible and release it. Feel the relaxation in the muscles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Now, close &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes. Concentrate on &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes, precisely, eyelids. Repeat the formula given below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"&lt;strong&gt;My eyelids are getting heavier and heavier. It s getting so very heavy that i am not able to open them. my eyelids are getting heavy.... heavier.... and heavier.... am able to feel the heaviness in my eyes. As soon as i complete my 10Th count, i ll not be able to open my eyes and i ll get into my unconscious mind. 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10. Now i have successfully entered my subconscious mind!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, try opening &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes. if u re unable to open &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes, congrats! you have hypnotised &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;yurselves&lt;/span&gt;. And if not, don worry. This requires a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;lotta&lt;/span&gt; concentration and confidence. Try continuously. Wen u do &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;lotta&lt;/span&gt; sessions, u ll easily get to it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. After hypnotizing &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;yurselves&lt;/span&gt;, its time for U to start programming &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;yurselves&lt;/span&gt;. But before that,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Use present tense mostly rather than past or future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Avoid using negative phrases like &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;don't, no &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;etc.,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* its always effective to memorize the formulae. Cos, if u follow diff &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;wrds&lt;/span&gt; in diff sessions, it may decrease the efficiency of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; hypnotic sessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Use &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;te&lt;/span&gt; language, u &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;kno&lt;/span&gt; the most.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;5. &lt;/em&gt;Now, i ll give some formulae. Feel free to edit it as u like. But do memorize it, however it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- To improve &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; memory and concentration power :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Day be day, am getting better and better. My memory power is increasing drastically. Am able to remember &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;lotta&lt;/span&gt; things now-a-days, without any external help. My concentration power is also improving a lot. Am able to concentrate more on my work. I feel myself, improving, after every session of hypnosis."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;-&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;This ll be a boon to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;BOYz&lt;/span&gt;! I bet, u &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;follo&lt;/span&gt; this for 20 days, and U ll surely end up &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;wid&lt;/span&gt; having a gal &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;frnd&lt;/span&gt; as u liked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;"I am getting closer and closer in meeting my life partner, whom i &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;wil&lt;/span&gt; love to the maximum and who will show me the same, in return!"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;em&gt;Refer my prev blog, &lt;strong&gt;"ARE U ready to b programmed" &lt;/strong&gt;for some more formulae! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-255991979150744648?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/255991979150744648/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=255991979150744648' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/255991979150744648'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/255991979150744648'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2007_07_03_archive.html#255991979150744648' title='self-hypnosis'/><author><name>Varun R.

An awesome math teacher.. Hadn she taught me math, i dunno where i would ve been! She s my fav teacher, am not her fav student, though! i owe her a lot! One fine morning, wen i was late to class, d reason i told for my coming late was "ma'm it took time to bath.." I still remember.. hw d entire class gazed at me.. particularly my dudettes! And my ma'm's rxn.. the most funniest one.. "Enda.. kulikarathu mukiyama? padikarathu mukiyama? kulikaama vantha enna aaga pothu?" huff.. thats it.. the entire class started laughing ... including our teacher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And well.. our school had a library, which none would visit! except a few buk creepers!! And a superb play ground.. but i don remember v had playing sessions. Of course, we had it written in the time table. And a computer lab, which was fun always.. including the xam time..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wish to get bac to those lovely days.. but wat to do? as am growing up, i cannot continue in d same school till 20 yrs ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-8902979550013313524?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/8902979550013313524/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=8902979550013313524' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/8902979550013313524'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/8902979550013313524'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2007_06_30_archive.html#8902979550013313524' title='Skool Life'/><author><name>Varun R.

And yes, i do believe so. Friendship is the only relation, straight from bottom of the heart...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;U need not worry about anyone if u have a friend around. No one can blow you up untill yur friend is with U.&lt;br /&gt;Friendship, as most of the ppl would have experienced, s not only sessions of joy, but, it has deep core emotions inside. Happiness is something wat we may always expect from friendship.. but do remember, only a friend can enlighten u up, when u go throu the stages of core depressions. I presume, Those who have good friends, around them, wil never have to meet psychoanalysts, cos, they wont feel their depressions. Who would? wen U urself know that u have a supportive soul around U?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, there is one more crucial stage you must go through the ocean of friendship. It s to select the pearls, out of the salty sea. Many fail in this regard. And the ones, successful, have everything around them, as a friend.&lt;br /&gt;Another crucial stage, is to maintain a good relation wid yur frnd.. and I promise, if u are a good friend, u cannot stay more than a day, after a quarell with him! A friend is not the one, who worries for U.. but the one, who never lets u worry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And finally, as quoted by Aristotle,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He that s thy frnd indeed,&lt;br /&gt;He will help thee in thy need,&lt;br /&gt;If thou sorrow, he will weep,&lt;br /&gt;If thou awake, he cannot sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;some of my bst frnds .. Giri, shiba, anagha, kira, prasanna, prasad, archu, karthik Ec, mrlni, Dr, mano, din...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* spl thanks to my frnd Archu, for that foto wid beautiful yellow roses!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-7922196928318104207?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/7922196928318104207/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=7922196928318104207' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7922196928318104207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/7922196928318104207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2007_06_30_archive.html#7922196928318104207' title='Frienship'/><author><name>Varun R.

Here i am, again to discuss something about programming yourselves to win yourselves, out of troubles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be hale and healthy, is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;everyone's&lt;/span&gt; desire.. but how? That is the only question which really matters here.&lt;br /&gt;Its quite simple.. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Jus&lt;/span&gt; close &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes, screen yourself about your own food habits.. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;hw&lt;/span&gt; much do u eat a day.. how do u eat it? Is it balanced? Is it good for health? Does it increase the fat level? so and so.. a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;lotta&lt;/span&gt; questions to be asked. But even &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;widout&lt;/span&gt; these, i can &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;easily&lt;/span&gt; say.. Yes, U always over-eat.. Your food intake is never balanced, or rarely so. U never let &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;ur&lt;/span&gt; stomach to take rest. so. let this problem be aside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next one.. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;hw&lt;/span&gt; many &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;ppl&lt;/span&gt; seem to b relaxed in problems? Not even one? yeah. Its a bloody human-thing to have problems. But, its insane that you worry for those, instead of taking your time to solve it out. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;in fact&lt;/span&gt;, what we assume to be as problems, are not at all problems! We make a silly &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;litle&lt;/span&gt; thing as much as complicated, we can, and unnecessarily worry for that action. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Jus&lt;/span&gt; think, how many of U are ready to face problems? many would say no.. yeah, as and usual.. everyone wants to go to heaven, but no one wants to die! &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;ok&lt;/span&gt;.. this prob aside!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next one.. Self Confidence and the Concentration power. Its not that u lack both, as u consider, my dear friend, whilst, you have to improve it still.. What if i know &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;hw&lt;/span&gt; much concentration/self confidence i have? worried about this question? Don worry.. These &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;doesn&lt;/span&gt; have any limits. It just gets to go with U as long as u re behind it. Its not to how much U start with.. Its how much u end up with!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Ok&lt;/span&gt; now, answering these three questions,&lt;br /&gt;The only thing you are to do s convince &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; mind/ yourself &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;wid&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;wat&lt;/span&gt; u want it to be with!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;Folow&lt;/span&gt; these :&lt;br /&gt;1. On your bed, before going to sleep, stretch your arms and legs and relax the muscles of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; body.. Remember, u re getting ready to tune &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; brain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Let the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;envi&lt;/span&gt; be relaxed and calm.. put &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;ur&lt;/span&gt; mobile in silent mode, so that it wont disturb u in d middle. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;realx&lt;/span&gt; yourselves...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. you are going to programme &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; mind and fall asleep as soon as it is over!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. repeat the following phrases 5-10 times in a session. Do have in mind to use 'present tense', rather than past or future tense.. U can always frame &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"&gt;ur&lt;/span&gt; own sentence. But do memorise it, cos it wont be so much effective, if U keep on changing the phrases in each session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. As much as possible, avoid using &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"&gt;negative&lt;/span&gt; words like &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;dont&lt;/span&gt;, no etc.,&lt;br /&gt;__________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. "&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am getting control over myself to my food habits. I take &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"&gt;wat&lt;/span&gt; is required for my body, to keep it hale and healthy. Day by day, I am getting better and better in my &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"&gt;appetite&lt;/span&gt;. I take what is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32"&gt;req&lt;/span&gt; for me, and just what is required. my health condition is improving drastically day by day, and am able to feel the difference within me&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. "&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am going more and more versatile in handling problems. I am learning to avoid problems, rather than solving them. The number of problems i face a day is getting down drastically, day by day. I am not afraid of problems, but preparing myself to solve them out with more and more concentration!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. "&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am getting better day by day. My concentration &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33"&gt;pwr&lt;/span&gt; and self-confidence, is increasing day by day. I am able to concentrate on various things, at any moment, and solve it out easily. My memory power is increasing vastly day by day. I am able to remember lot of telephone nos and other &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34"&gt;info's&lt;/span&gt;, without any help!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;___________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To increase concentration power, here s a simple physical exercise. draw a circle in a paper or a wall. keep it at a distance and gaze its center, not so very roughly, which would lead to aches in your eyes. Try not to blink &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35"&gt;yur&lt;/span&gt; eyes and stare at the centre.. concentrating the centre alone!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-3518406871873977509?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/3518406871873977509/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=3518406871873977509' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3518406871873977509'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/3518406871873977509'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2007_06_29_archive.html#3518406871873977509' title='R U Ready to be programmed?'/><author><name>Varun R.

Anyways, hope everything s fine wid U!&lt;br /&gt;Tis time, i wanted to share a few words about a beautiful novel, i read last week. A clean sweeped story of Dr. Judd Stevens, the hero of the novel, a psychoanalyst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well.. at the beginning i did not have that much interest to go through it.. but still, as i turned up the pages, i knew i were clenching my fists against the chair.. a real thrilling, detective's story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Story goes this way, in brief.. Dr. Judd Stevans, a famous Psychoanalyst, in his country was being framed for having committed two murders, one his own patient, whom he was treating for around a year or so and the other, Miss. Robert Carol, his PA. Lt. McGreavy and detective Frank Angeli are behind the case. Lt. tries to frame the Doc, for with no reason, into the case.

Assume, u don have eyes and you've never known wat light actually is. No matter, however I explain about light, in whatever ways though, U'll never understand what it is! If U lack that experience, the only other way is to BELIEVE it. But just believing in what I say don't take U anywhere. The only thing U could do is to pretend to understand things. On disbelieving, it will destroy all the possibilities of knowing something that U have not experienced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now-a-days, U can find a minimum of 3 temples wen u walk across a road. This simply proves that people who believe in such things are higher in number. ok now! "Where do u think today's belief upon god came from?" Probably, the stem of today's belief over God raises from the convenience and custom - b'coz yur grand father, father said and that is Y u believe in God! Have u ever thought Y with these multitudes of God, ppl in our country live in pathetic conditions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason is Nothing to do with God , but simply with your Foolishness. None of Us have ever aspired for the divine but we always aspire for good health, comfort wealth etc,.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IS GOD A TOOL TO GET U THESE THINGS???&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Src - RITZ&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069393233655642771-1242850772934697875?l=r-varun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/feeds/1242850772934697875/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8069393233655642771&amp;postID=1242850772934697875' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1242850772934697875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069393233655642771/posts/default/1242850772934697875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://r-varun.blogspot.com/2007_05_05_archive.html#1242850772934697875' title='God'/><author><name>Varun R.
