Ubuntu a Powerful Operating System ...

All fed up with windows.. 98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista and hell. 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.



Ubuntu:
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 (apt-get install, 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)
Linux:
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.
Why Ubuntu?:
I use Ubuntu right now.. I ll mention a few advantages... I don wanna compare it with Windows and waste time...
1. High speed. My PC starts up within a matter of 10 seconds.
2. Highly customizable. I don find any walls as in the former. All the Windows are open wide.
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.
5. Security options. No one can use even a partition of my hard-disk without my password.
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.
7. Virus free.
8. Multiple options to operate the System.. GUI or Terminal, which maybe effective sometimes.
9. No drivers necessary.
10. I got it for Free!!
_______________________________________________
Wanna check ubuntu?? well, here u go.. http://www.ubuntu.com/
all the best.

Microsoft - back wid the next endeavor ..


Windows Vista, a highly expected OS, for its design, simplicity of user interface, support, security really buzzed off many techies, i must say... 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.

The new endeavor:
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.
Hope we hear something good from Microsoft corporation about the doors of Windows 7.

Darwin's Theory of Evolution - a Crisis??


Evolution... a most frequently asked question, whose answer is still beyond the imaginative power of man. 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? lotsa questions, as such.

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.

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.

But the transition can not happen in a leap. It takes lotta 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. Because, if the evolution is part by part and slow, the system wouldn function well.

To note a point, Darwin himself had made a confession on his theory...
"To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree."

And thus, the Darwin's theory is a crisis ... !

Sholingur Lakshmi Narahsimha Temple


Sun Dec, 14., 2008

After a plan to visit the Lakshmi Narahsimha Swami temple, Sholingur, we started from home at 6.00 am sharp. 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. 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.


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.

The temple located over the hill, is full of Monkeys. One can see Family's of monkeys going here and there.. U need to be a bit careful with what you have in your hand else, within no time, you may find it snatched away by them....

Vaarnam Ayiram




Hi there,
I was on for an 'after-exam' movie..
Vaarnam Ayiram.. thought would give a review about it!! here it goes....
Vaarnam Ayiram.. Staring: Suriya, Simran, Sameera Reddy, Divya
Direction:Gautham Menon
Music:Harris Jayaraj
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.
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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

Finally dad gets a throat cancer. Though operated, he dies.. and that is where the story begins!

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.
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%

World in 2012 (part 1)





Hi there,
Doing fine? After a long time, into this blogger, for a crucial discussion about the Talk of the Town on the End Days of Earth.

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?

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"

"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!!

OK now. I ll try my level best to conceptualize the entire issue in a way that U best understand.
Dealing with two important views, as i have mentioned before, Hypothesis and Science, lets try to grasp what both has to say reg this issue.

Hypothesis, first.
  1. The Mayan Prophecy
  2. The Bible Prophecy
  3. The Earth at present
  4. Insights
1. The Mayan Prophecy :-

The Mayan people are believed to be the people with a good insight of the world and the Mayan Civilization is supposed to be the first civilization, after the birth of the world. 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. (That is the most worst thing they must ve done along their civilization - Personally). Mayan calendar, the mysterious one did not have any numbers as we use in our present calendar system.

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"
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).

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?

2. The Bible Prophecy:-

The Holy Bible! Aloha... Our bible has a few insights about the end of the world! Though not extremely exact (Said that even Jesus didn't know the end time of the world. Only his father did!), 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.

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 (this may be an outcome of Nuclear bomb blast! - Personal).

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 the Messiah) will be the focus of the new world that will be born from this catastrophe.

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 [SIGH --!]).

3. Earth @ Present:-

Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are happening all over the planet. 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 Mt's of land around it. Earth's tectonic plates have become unstable nowadays, causing core earthquakes! Not to mention about the quake that occurred in China a few months back, where thousands died.

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.

Not only these, many parts of earth are being destroyed in various means.. Be it Earthquakes, Volcanic Eruptions, Tsunami's and many unknown diseases!

4. Insights :-

The Sumerians occupied ancient Mesopotamia (Iraq). They were the 1st civilization to document their lives, their beliefs and facts about their civilization. From them, the Hebrews, Hopi Indians, Greeks, Romans and other civilizations have also recorded historical information that we have today as proof that they indeed lived and survived Nibru's last visits.

[Need to say about Nibru this time! Nibru the 10th planet was even discovered by the Mayans. NASA, has named this unknown Mass body as Planet X. NASA's IrDa satellite has proved its existence and calculations say its nearing the earth. The size is 318 times bigger than Jupiter, the largest planet in our present Solar system. The visit of Nibru(Planet X), according to the Mayans led to the destruction of the world before 25,800 years. And now after such a span, the hell is back to fuck up our lives!!]

Nostradamus, who lived in the 15th century Europe, had prophetic “visions” that he left for all to read about and heed in the years extending after his death. Many of those predictions have already come true, some still need to occur.

Edgar Cayce, a 20th century prophet and a seer through the Trans Induced state has left up many predictions of the fate of the world after his death. Many came true and yet to come!

Einstein said, "After four years of the end of Bee's species, the world would end". His theorywas simple! No bees, no pollination. No pollination, no plants. No plants, No human! And for the Goodness of hell, Bee species are going extinct these days!!



Huh!!! Now that's only Hypothesis!! Well then... SCIENCE? Get ready to know
FACTS!

World in 2012 (part 2)

Science!!
Fine now, what has science gotta say in this issue? 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.

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.

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?"
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...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
Hypothesis is also coming true and so is science. Lets hope for the best.
Love others, at least we have only a 4 yrs left.
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!!

Thanks to December 2012 Network and articles posters there.

Soul


Soul.. as we all ve heard, is supposed to be an integral part of a living being.. 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.
Hinduism has two classifications for everything. One the Dvaita(Dualistic) and the Advaita(non-dualistic).

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.

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.

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.

"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!

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!

"A wise man never considers death as a separating factor", says He, "since he knows, there is no death for atma!"

Christianity:
Christianity, also one of the most spread religion in the world, deals atma/soul the same way as Hinduism dealt!
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” (Ecclesiastes 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.

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!"

These are similar to Dvaita and Advaita in Hinduism!

Islamic:
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.

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).

Mixture to Dvaita and Advaita!

Jainism:

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.

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.

As in Dvaita!


As a conclusion, Soul is something, which is never destroyed! nobody can understand Brahmam, which is the ultimate of everything in this universe!

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!
