Who or What R we ?!!?......the truth behind us !!

yes, behind us...no !...dont turn around.....!!

This is a discussion that actually happened at my office......very thought provoking indeed !! read along !!


Who or what is Maithili, in context of Indian literature?

Maithili is a language spoken in central bihar. It has its own literature.It has its root in the old kingdom of that area.It is similarto Hindi.

Maithili brahmins are known for their gastronome qualities !!!
Maithili is a language which derives it's name from the region in Biharwhere it is spoken, the old kingdom of Mithla. There is a reference tothe area even in Ramayana- Janak( Father of Sita) was king of Mithla andhas been referred to as MithlaNaresh at many places in RamCharitraManas- therefore Sita was also called Maithili.

Recently one Congress leader, in defense of Sonia, quoted that Sita wasalso a foreigner because Janakpuri is in Nepal.

God Shiva is also a foreigner becauseMt.Kailash is in China.

Buddha was also a foreigner becauseLumbini(?) is in Nepal. So was Guru Nanak, because Talwandi is inPakistan. So was Porus. So was Gandhari.....:)

And what about Home minister Advani & Noble Prize winner Economics Dr.Amartya Sen???

Rama was an aryan ;Germans claim to be aryans so Rama was a German &nbs nbsp; Hail Rama....

the argument is wrong.the conclusion is fallacious

After defeating ravana .... Sri Rama flew back in Ravana's pushpakvimana & This is what the Mordern Lufthansa is . It is the modernversion of the older pushpaka vimana.The pushpak vimana was "driven" by hansa or swans....The insignia of Lufthansa is also a swan...This further proves Sri Rama was a German Hail Rama ....

No, on the contrary it proves that Ravan was a German since it was he who owned the Pushpak Viman. The passengers could belong to any country.

Say this to the DMK and they're gonna kick u!! according to them ravanwas a dravidian and was attacked by ram as ram was an aryan.So if ram was a german, and assuming he was a 'hitlerite 'aryan, thenravan must have been a jew!!!

Might be Russians too.. that explains why MK's son is called STALIN.

So, at present we are at a point where MK's son is a Russian, implyingMK is a Russian. MK is a ardent follower of Ravan who is a German Jew.Looks like the german govt running Karnataka(see our previousdiscussions for a proof of it) is conniving with the Russian govt atTamilnadu (who support German) to fight the Italian Govts reps at 10Janpath road. Some heavy international politics we have going on here.Wat's d'ya say man!!

According to maxmuller, Aryans came from Middle East.According to Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Antarctica was the home place ofAryans. And Swami Dayanand Saraswati says Aryans were originally fromIndia b'coz the place "saptsandhav" that is described many times intheir book is nothing but Doab region between Ganga & Jamuna.And One theory according Bhagwandas is that Aryans were originally fromIndia then they went to middle east and after some time they returnedback to India.So there are different theories about the origin of Aryansbut recent belief is that only India was their native-land.

OH BOY!! WHO ARE WE?

Let the 'intellectuals' decide... you will know who you are soon enough.

It just occured that a better subject would have been "CRICKET"but this &nbs nbsp; one stopped ...."Are our cricketersAryans/Germans ?" So we got to solve this one !

Germans don't play cricket. So cricketers can't be germans. QED

Indians invented the decimal system. Ravan(Jew) had ten heads, Ram'sfather(aryan + German)had ten chariots (Dash-rath) etc.Thus , the baseis 10. There fore they are all Indians
How logical!! Now I could easily prove that even Africans are Aryans.They have 10 fingers- so they are aryans. They have 10 toes on theirfeet - so they are aryans. Thanks for proving that all are aryans.

Then even monkeys are aryans!!!!!!(I think they too have 10 fingers).That's what ramayan says. So all vanars were also aryans!!!

No, Only the native of Haryana are are aryans b'coz U just remove the'H' in Haryana so it becomes aryana.Agreed or not????

Let me get it clear.Are u suggesting that all people in haryana aremonkeys?????
B'cas only teachers (arya's) are aryans. So all software engr's aredravidians.

Your theory only proves that Software engineers are not aryans.Thereforethey can be any thing other than aryans and not only dravidians.

My theory is first step to identify software engrs.I'm more interestedin showing that software engrs are not monkeys (bcas they are notaryans) which my house owner believes!!!

We sit before the monitor staring into the pixels, making faces thewhole day like monkeys. And you claim that you are not in this monkeybusiness? Beats me!!

ME too !!!

Anger Management....what ever !

Why?...thats the question I ask myself every time I blow my lid….and every time I come with a perfect explanation…and that leaves me with a really bad temper ….. that I think is not a mistake…cause I never get angry for the wrong reasons..


Yesterday my mom actually asked me why I get angry and start shouting most of the time…she said that she understood that I do not blow hot air for the wrong reasons…but jus why….


This is what I told her….see….when I say something will go wrong ,,it jus not an intuition…a calculated suggestion…but still u go ahead and do what I ask u not to do and end up with more problems and again ask what to do and say forget that said that this will happen…now tell m what to do….when u r not ready to even listen to what I say…then why do u ask….that is one….then u keep doing the same thing I don’t like over and over again ,even after me saying so…that puts me off…that’s two….


I usually try to keep calm and when ever I get shouted at…I shout back after trying hard to explain my stand and that fails…happens most of the time …when people cannot be decent enough to accept that they were wrong…I cant think of any situation where I have not accepted my mistake ..I always do…..and by the end of it she wasn’t convinced and said I was cold…I am not…


I am jus trying to be sensible and analytical about everything with no emotions….is that wrong ?.....as ever ,even this discussion ended with some heated exchange…..reason….as I was saying she wasn’t ready to listen…jus wanted to put across her idea keeping her mind shut to my replies…and when I did the same…she blew….


See I can see this reason….she can’t….aint my problem…I try my best to be good…at least I am trying….when no one else does ….that again makes me mad….


At office it a totally different scenario, being analytical helps…and people respect ur views…and they think twice before telling anything to me ..in a good way that is….cause they know that I make no mistakes…and even if I do, they understand…professional…?...that never happens back home…


The reason I am actually writing this is ?...actually looking for some inputs to handle the above situations…no ..not ways to control my anger !.... point is to find a way to react in these kinda situations…anger management wont work here as….I never get angry for the wrong reasons…jus that the fact that people cannot comprehend the situation….drives me crazy !!....

Maanga bathai !

when I was a kid....like some 10-12 yrs back....my mom or my dad used to take me to the "marina" beach at least 3 times every week !...I used to really enjoy it...the long walk on the sand....the wind whizzing past ur ears...a crab Occasionally running over foot...making u go berserk , the 'molaga bajji', the waves.....everything was exiting...even if it is the same thing over and over again...it was nice...never failed to bring a smile on ur face.....and there was one thing that I never missed ...still don't... 'MAANGA BATHAI'...the boat shaped pieces of raw mango ,with cuts parallel to each other and perpendicular to the skin....with loads of chilli/salt powder !!....uhmm....the taste - hevenly !!...now-a-days...no time for all that is the situation in my gooofed up life !

Today....I am in office....did I hear someone say that toay is saturday ?!?...I know but my PM dosen't...I guess !....
well...I am in office still...and some 15 mins back I steppet out for a coffee....under my fav mango tree..one among the many inside our company campus....half way through ,something caught my attention... big, round....green...a fully grown MAANGA !....I wouldn't have given it a second look ....usually...today I dunno.....exited ,as I often get,...I looked at the Gardener guy and smiled at him....the reason.... he had a long stick with which he was actually spraying some stuff on the plants and the trees.....

' anna antha komba konjam ippadi kodunga'
'yethuku sir,?'
'kodunga sollaren....(I take the stick from him and go under the tree)...yellam maanga adikkahaan...(wack...one alls down)....'

by now my friend comes into the picture...
'dei...yenakku onnu...' (wack ...another one !)

'thanks anna....inthaanga kombu'.....'sir, paathu kazhuvittu saapudunga '.....'ok !'

I usually carry a knife in my bag....a habit that stuck with me from college....dont ask for what...I jus carry it ....

I walked back to my cube.....cut beautiful pices as explained above.....stuffed chilli/salt mix (got that from the food court dominos) into to the gaps.....now thats what I call a 'maanga bathai'...

3 pieces gone.....5 left.....music is playing ( nee our kaadal...from nayagan)....the room is really cold...a really good looking one stittin in the cube opposite to mine....hey who wouldn't wanna work on weekends !!! ...

hey... did she jus give me a smile....alert....I think shez after my maanga...I dunno if I will give her a bite...lets see.....that depends.....
