customs and traditions above human life

This is the most unfortunate thing happened to india centuries ago; people here value traditions, customs, rules, "reethi", "rivaaz" more than human lives.
This is very shameful, I should blame all those disgraceful people who created these rules.
I know Manu is one such culprit who desgined all these traditions sometime in BC; if I really get a chance I would make sure that kind of person is never born on this earth.

How can you put traditions above life? centuries after centuries these ignorant Indians have been blindly following as if they are god's words. I should say its the fault of how "brahminism" developed during those times.
All the Rajas and kings used to respect those arrogant "knowledgeable" persons who designed rules for the people and made sure that no section of the society ever even think of knowing the truth.
Its a pity that I am born as "hindu"; I should declare my identity, my caste everywhere I go while I stay in India; because Indian state recognizes people based on their identities.

If I get a chance to choose a place in my next life, I'll not choose this country in its present state, I will choose my birth either during "ashoka's reign" or "chalukya's" or "pallava's" or may be during the INdus valley civilization.
I don't want to be born in a nation where power rests with few individuals and where only these few people decide how the other people live.

I sincerely pray god to degenerate hindu "culture", to eradicate all the religious heads who make rules; I think it should be the same with every religion, all the religious heads (only those who make rules) should be sent to god, either he a muslim or jew or a christian.

all this debate again comes to "religion"; religion controls human behaviour, human evolution and much more. there is so much that a religion contributes to human lives and it takes generations and generations to remove one religion and I don't think its even possible.
Imagine if you want to remove hindu or muslim religions from this world, is it possible? never until human life stays on this earth.
For people like me, all this frustration goes to a blog or a column or to a diary; other than that we just couldn't do anything.
Ok, here is the time to take an Oath.
Until I live on this earth, I will respect and value human life more than anything else!

Whistles for Women's safety

This idea is so good though its not mine; I read this somewhere in a blog and its very interesting; not sure if some women really use this.

Carrying whistles really help Women; when someone attacks them in the night they can just blow the whistle and that keeps the baddies away; 

Also whistles help when you have a problem or a fight with some arrogant junkie out there; you can quickly blow the whistle and alert others so they can thrash him black and blue.

Next time I go to India, I'll gift whistles to all my near and dear ones (girls, women)

calorie/nutrients counting device and hunger measuring tool

I would really like to see devices which can accurately measure our hunger and also calculate the calories and nutrients in a substance.

If we have a device similar to a weighing machine which can display all the essential nutrients, calories, amount of fat, protein, carbs, fiber, sodium,....... etc then it really is a boon for all of us.
it will be so good; like put your apple on the device and there you go you can see its nutritional value. vow, amazing!!!

I hope someone creates this device soon and then it will be a new invention benefiting human race.

Now about the hunger measurement; I don't think its an impossible one but what I am looking for is a tool similar to our thermometer or a BP checking machine which can show our hunger reading;
lets say, keep the device's tip in your mouth for a minute and then the reading should indicate all this:

1) the amount of calories(min, max, avg) your body currently needs so as to stop that "hunger" bug.
2) the amount of fat, protein, carbs etc it needs for that

Emergency Drill in Schools and colleges

I just got this brilliant idea while watching the movie, "the guardian".
Its a good thing to train our children on what to do during emergency and disaster.
I think it should be part of a mandatory course for all students above 14 years to attend this drill every quarter. 
In that case we can be sure that the next generation are prepared to handle themselves and their families during emergency.

Hope someone's reading this.............

I am walking alone

After traveling so many places and watching so many people(only Indians, I never personally know anyone outside India) I am slowly realizing that I am no fit to this country.
I am just alone in my search for honesty, integrity and truthfulness.
Its not that all the people are bad; no one is bad, its just that the the way we (Indians) think and react to issues and problems is different;
We all are critics, all the bunch of Indians; we just know how to criticize and how to find faults with others; that's the only thing we mastered in all these years.
There are very few exceptions in this vast land and I am happy that there are people who deviate from the ordinary.
 Lets hope Indians become more friendly to others and instead of judging others constantly lets hope that we judge ourselves.

My love is back

I am back again with my old love, Guitar.
This time, its electric guitar with a cute little amplifier.
I got a very good deal in Allans billy hyde store in bourke street;
complete guitar pack for 150$.
The manufacturer is Tourcraft which ofcourse doesn't exist now as Allans is closing down its business due to losses.
Anyhow, I got an entry level electric guitar and now I can play songs and enjoy my music.
I've already started doing that and my fingers are sore now; i like it, the same feeling when my knuckles were bleeding during my early stages of boxing practice.

coming back to Guitar again, when you plan the right tunes and your favorite sheryl crow and bryan adams songs, you would really enjoy and I am enjoying every tune from my guitar.
Only -ve thing I see is that the amp (10W) is not so good for an electric guitar, the distortion effects are not nice, or may be I don't know how to adjust distortion to the music I play.

Happy guitaring...
