December 29 Hagelian ProgressivesThe post here discusses issues of social study where certain information, experience and story is simply discarded as noise. "The time has arrived" - Does this mean our destiny has arrived with time ? Or does it mean an assumption of a purpose of something called time, our collective destiny going with time with some principle ? Has the "goal" of time , the destiny .."destiny" of the bygone called history and its future ever analyzed ? Hagel says it has a final goal. People have proposed national destiny, national purpose along with civilizational destiny, civilizational purpose. Political goals for utopia has been set, Hope for the "goal" of so called history has created new doctrines where piped Pipers would lead their followers through pleasant country sides , valiants acts into the cherished land. Disagreement is not taken lightly. Following statement by Hagel is a clear about his thoughts on goal of history . His notion of freedom has been interesting, what did he understand of "that one is free" ? It is a reference to human "Kamana" , how could he have compared that with the all men are free, which is a political concept. Unfortunately he has had significant influence on social studies. Linear Theories Some philosophers of history, most notably Hegel, have proposed that history proceeds in a line—hence linear—and so is directional, or "going somewhere". For those holding to a linear theory, history is a process that unfolds towards a final goal. This is a progressive view in which what came before was in a sense more "primitive" than now, while what will follow will be an advancement, until such time as the limit is reached. A quote from Hegel that gives a nice example is his remark that: ... the Eastern nations knew only that one is free; the Greek and Roman world only that some are free; while we know that all men absolutely (man as man) are free.On this view, then, the development of the notion and application of freedom is an instance of a linear advancement. ....http://www.galilean-library.org/manuscript.php?postid=43796 December 27 Madhusala -With Progressive Political ProstitutesThe Madhusala is shown here in this video. Mr Bachan Sr mentioned it right, there is no discrimination of religion in Madhusala, all are equal there - Big ego traitors and their KGB handlers are comrades. Gandhians, progressives or what the KGB agent calls "Political prostitutes" - traitors - they get madhu or actually poisonous Vodka from their bosses ( see the video posted above) , create new political organizations, create new colonial movements, destroying civillizations. "...we were bringing to India was a New type of colonialism...thousand times more oppressive and exploititive..." Extracts from defected KGB agent Video... International terrorists: "...lumomba friendship university in moscow, future Leaders of the so called national liberational moment were educated and selected carefully.... They don't look like students at all, they look like military, and thats exactly what they were...they were dispatched back to their countries to be leaders of the so called national liberation movements....or in normal human language, leaders of international terrorist groups." Political prostitutes: "...accompany groups of so called progressive intellectuals...writers, journalists, publishers, teachers, ptrofessors of the colleges....they pretended that they don't understand that we are actually working on behalf of soviet govt and the KGB ..they pretended that they actually being guests...VIP intellectuals...they are treated according to their merits and intellectual abilities....for us they are just a bunch of political prostitutes to be taken care of various propaganda purposes..." Gosain Dutta - aka Sumitra Nandan Pant : Gosain Dutta the "girlie" didn't like his relatively rustic name, he changed it to Sumitra Nandan Pant !! That is his grandness. He is considered to be big name, he wrote progressive, socialist and humanist poems. I am not sure what he was doing in Sri Aurobindo Ashram where he wrote philosophical poems too ! No wonder, the KGP agent calls these as prostitutes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumitranandan_Pant December 16 FACT India web sitesThese are untold stories amidst flood of opinions, historic atrocities Aurangzeb on an entire population, disruption of entire hindu population in Kashmir, Bangladesh, Pakisthan... If one thought cruelty has vanished, Pakisthan has concerted effort to whitewash atrocity on deapths of civilization by painting cruelest of Mogul rulers as a zinda pir, Fact on other hand brought the paintings of Aurangzeb into exhibition, unfortunately that was vandalized by Chennai police.

December 12 Socialism : Jungle socialism, Hindu Socialism, African.... Hard hitting article, the end of it is Hilarious : The 20th century experimented with every possible variant of socialism. We had democratic socialism in Western Europe, totalitarian socialism in Eastern Europe, and fascist socialism in South America. We had atheistic socialism and we had "liberation theology." We had the "scientific socialism" of the Soviet central planners and the chaotic jungle socialism of the Khmer Rouge, who executed anyone with an education. We had "socialism with Chinese characteristics" and socialism with African characteristics and socialism with Hindu characteristics. We tried it all, and every time it led to poverty and oppression. Those results have been proven with scientific thoroughness. There is no excuse for trying it all again. December 10 Democracy 1- If Friend or acquaintance had any meaning, then I had this friend whom I had never met, but his joining as a teaching job in USA was supposed to bring in more time for our mailing list or whatever...His passion for "democracy" was such that the mailing list or "samaja" elected somebody as "president" with -ve votes ( yeah, that happened), the person who became president or whatever, quite young, but was rather unsophisticated in his confidence of new found wisdom, once he advised those arguing with a base from Indian culture and philosophy [ This is religious by nature] can leave the list. 2- A Bengali immigrant marxist in USA, who actively forwarded CPIML type propaganda, who never worried about suffocation of electoral system in West Bangal , who publicly bickered with former communists on why they are not defending the suffocating system of communism was rather vocal about the "democracy" . 3- With all this hyper activity democracy, Sonia Gandhi some how emerged as the winner in India, a lady who rather acts as a power broker, surrounded by shadowy personalities, possibly based on religious affiliation. She had lot of interest in shopping, how did she went unscathed , uncriticized "leader" is bit of mystery. People who criticized her were removed as in fascist parties. When one looks at these, it is clear that democracy is no more what we were told...About a voting mechanism. The fascists, socialists and communists have redefined it according to their formula, sometimes the formula is an economic one, sometimes a "people" is equivalent to a peasant member of the socialist party, and is expected to behave so in a democracy. The political suffocation by Bengali marxists is still democracy because, in the worst case Amartya Sen [ Sen usually refrained or was reticent in criticizing comrades] can have a formula to justify it!! The hyper activity around the world about politics is probably guided by this realization - the socialist could change the meaning of democracy according to party formula, if they could match it with a new mechanics, then democracy is changed to accommodate socialist parties and their pressure tactics , and hence their growth. December 07 Independent Terrorists, Spontaneous revolutions A fine article in the Australian. It argues that the terrorists are not non-state actors. The article alludes to al-Qa'ida, Hezbollah, Hamas, ISI. The support of taliban and Sudanese Govt to Laden, and so on... Spontaneous revolutions is created by the bed fellow of Islamist regimes - the socialists and communists. These are sometimes financed from west, from china in the interior areas. Their reach in national and local media is more organized and powerful than anybody they accuse of . Still these are depicted as spontaneous revolutions, many rich and spoiled - some of them are professors - argue for this spontaneous revolutions from thousands miles away, from the west. These are state actors, many who argue for these spontaneous revolutions get promotions and contact in academics. December 06 The marriage procession Modernity had brought this tradition of electronic instruments and extra-fun into marriage ceremonies. Before the marriage party, drunkards would go dancing, ladies being equal, ladies also go dancing rather awkwardly - enough to get a most people out of there. That we have this institution of marriage, we need some guests - if those are the drunkards then let it be so. One such marriage party was blasting few thousands watts of sound through some vulgar song, they would go through the streets. A working man was very happy with the spectacle, happily watching it. However, the thousands of watts pumping into our house was simple intolerable, so I went ahead and asked the lone person in traditional dress - Could you please reduce the sound [ These days are not good, you don't want to talk to drunkards] He requested others, then pat came the reply - Sir the dance wouldn't be as good if we reduce the sound. We will move away quickly. I looked back - a lady with a ton of lipstick starting to move herself, god, she was oblivious of the heat, the anguish and the surrounding. Now she was equal, equal to the drunkards. I returned. December 02 Deepak Chopra as Digestion Guru
"Digestion Guru" - That is WSJ describing Deepaka Chopra . Here is the surprise of wsj: ...It was mandatory, then, to address their grievances -- "humiliation," "poverty," "lack of education." The U.S., he recommended, should undertake a Marshall Plan for Muslims. Nowhere in this citation of the root causes of Muslim terrorism was there any mention of Islamic fundamentalism -- the religious fanaticism that has sent fevered mobs rioting, burning and killing over alleged slights to the Quran or the prophet. Not to mention the countless others enlisted to blow themselves and others up in the name of God. Nor did we hear, in these media meditations, any particular expression of sorrow from the New Delhi-born Dr. Chopra for the anguish of Mumbai's victims: a striking lack, no doubt unintentional, but not surprising, either. For advocates of the root-causes theory of crime, the central story is, ever, the sorrows and grievances of the perpetrators. If the root causes were not Islamic fundamentalism, Chopra is was no sparing for the hindus. In those interviews he had managed to specter of hindu fundamentalism - but for these freaks like Chopra. The root causes rested there. Apparently it also rested in American domestic politics, Chopra is a supporter of Obama - He hit hard at Bush's policy which were the campaign slogan of Obama. The WSJ is protesting that part with title " Deepak Blames America" . At some point CNN's moderator pushed back: "All this was a bit too much, evidently, for CNN interviewer Jonathan Mann, who interrupted to note that there were other things going on -- matters like the ongoing bitter Pakistan-India struggle over Kashmir -- which had caused so much terror and so much violence. "That's not Washington's fault," he pointed out." One is not sure if the Terrorists did better than the leftist power brokers and new age gurus in hiding the islamic brotherhood ideology, for which has been an imperial authoritarian violence driver of terrorists. Chopra didn't mention them either. For him the possibility of hindu insanity was more important. Here is a pathetic comment from the first page of the WSJ: "as a sixty year old American and a professor at a national university in Ohio after nearly forty years with a Fortune 100 Company, I am literally sick and tired of hearing taht whatever or whereever issues arise it is somehow the fault of the United States. India is a cauldron sinces its inception with countless sects, pagan worship that facilitate fomentation of radical elements. Look at England which is now more Indian than English and the unending sets of ethnic issues they are having to deal with;" Fortunately informed people consider Chopra as part of Am liberal establishment. It is amazing though, how Chopra and his comrades can push so much for their own greatness , how these are pushing for a debate on how bad the hindus are. A NY Times columnist who finds the sad state of being in blame business. Martha Nussabaum has found new categories on racial profiling in USA, when she fails to mention the LET, the perpetrators. Mr Kristol says :
