Breaking, The Bridge To Srilanka

When all India was rocking on Ram Sethu Project, I have got something to say about Ram Sethu. Thats what this blog.

So Lets start with what it is meant to India...
India is a country that is formed out of British India after partition in 1947.
Since Its Independence, the country doesn't have a continuous coastline. i.e, To travel by Ships from west India to East India, the ship always have to take a longer route around another country(Srilanka).
If the Palk strait between India and srilanka was deep, Ships can take this shorter route.
Not only It helps India, all world countries would be benefitted. It would be shorter and safer route in the ocean, there by increasing trade.
so wat is required is to deepen the ocean between India and srilanka. That is what the sethu samuthram Project.

What it is meant for Hindu?
It was around 17,00,000 years ago, some time in tretha yuga, The God appeared in Man form as Rama.
Ravana, the King of Lanka, kidnapped Rama's wife to Lanka.
Rama with the alies of Vanara sena, built a bridge by throwing stones into the sea till srilanka.
That bridge was existing till now. but it was submerged under sea.
Nasa Pictures of the bridge clearly shows that the bridge was submerged in ocean.
The deepening ocean would mean demolishing the Hindu sanctity place.

Some Facts vs Fancy....
Nasa Predicts that age of the bridge is 17,50,000 years, that almost matches with Tretha Yuga.
But according to scientist, Human was evolved sometime around 30,000 years ago.So, where is the Tretha yuga?
Also, 17,00,000 years ago, the world map was completely different.

Historian.."Rameshwaram Temple records suggest the bridge was submerged by a violent storm as recently as 1480 AD"
Wikipedia says, the bridge was submerged some 10,000 years before due to wisconsin glaciation.
Anyway, its submerged. The bridge was not floating in the sea as Rama's Bridge.

One Asterologists says its a naturally made due to ocean current formed between dhanushkodi and srilanka.
another Asterologists says its man made.. he compares the sea corals in Andaman with that of Palk Strait.
Watever be it... it is useless for Man as of now and it was a blessing in disguise during Tsunami 2004.

According to a Rajaji, First Governor General of India ,"As per valmiki Ramayana, Rama has not crossed the Vindya Range in the Mid India"

Nehru in his book "Discovery of India" mentions "The Ramayana story is one of Aryan expansion to the South".

Two real concern about this project
Tsunami.. this bridge has prevented the tsunami effect by larger extent in 2004 tsunami.
Environmentalist .. This would affect the fishing in the local area.

Considering the real opposer, for the project, Hindu fundamentalist were the main blockade.
and as far as my observation on this discussion on Rediff.com http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/sep/12ram.htm
Basically, there is a two different kind of views on India about approval of this scheme.

1. Rest of Tamil Nadu, see it as clash between Hinduism vs Christianity...
They think Congress were against Hinduism and Sonia was trying to promote Christianity, so she does this to Hindu

2. In Tamil Nadu.. Its a clash between Hinduism vs Atheism(dravidian).

Being a Tamilian and has got a knowledge on Hinduism & dravidian concept, I take the side of Atheism.

Let assume God Theory, Rama has Built Adam's Bridge.
God created Earth for Man.
We are not living on it just like that.
We destroy nature and build houses for our welfare and comfort.
so does the Government do for the people.
Those who concerns would have to worry about earth and not about Ram Sethu, have to start living in forest.

Its a common sense to understand Ramayana & mahabharata were stories made out with references to real places.
Ramayana is like Chandramukhi movie. you'll love it when you see it for the first time.
You also find the logic goes missing in many scenes.
If someone watches it continuously for fifty day, then, his mind accepts to the story
and he would say that there is no flaw in the movie and
would also, preaches life principles from the movie. i.e, wat happening with Hinduism.

So what's my stand, I am not standing against or for the project, I believe in decision of India Government.
and in Bhagavad Gita.. ' Everything has happened or going to happen, will happen right '.

Firefox, Revisitied

Last couple of years, Microsoft was kicked back in web arena by Google and Firefox. Anyway this blog is not about firefox vs ie cold war and its all about sharing what i have seen in web today. The First one is the following Cover picture of the book (See Right), where Firefox was eating the blue e!. Its an intuitive thinking with the double meaning. ie = e! and the word Blue E matching ie icon.. When I see this cover, the thing that immediately pops in my mind is that. Mr. Project , a perfect opensource competitor of Ms Project . Microsoft Project or Miss Project. I have seen many instances where Microsoft Often refferred as Miss (Ms). I think she is planning to marry Yahoo to stand against mighty Google.. Lets wait and see.. The next one, is about Firefox 3 which is available in alpha 4. Firefox 3 has heightened my expectation because of its new functionality called FUEL ( Firefox User Extension Language) which seems to reduce the amount of time in developing addon. Already, there ...

Sultan, The Warrior

Kannu, Ithu Puthusu, Sultan. What ever Rajni Does... that makes a huge talk in Tamil Nadu... and Now, the fire was spreading all over the country and unto the world. Thats shows how his charisma wins the heart of crores of people. While Sivaji running great across theatres, homes, internet... there was large amount of hype and hoopla around his next movie... and yes, Sultan, The warrior would definitely make history in World Cinema. Being a fan..Here goes what I thought negative about the Trailer: - * Rajini - doesn't Appear as Rajni... When you take a close look at him... he appears as Slim Vijayakanth.. * Even in animation, they have used Doop for Rajni. It was clearly visible when he hides his face while swinging the sword. :) * I don’t know why he jumps so unusual to take that sword. Style?? * Soundarya Rajnikanth - is directing the movie... Remember chandramukhi graphics... which was widely appreciated (?*&#&) * Only the name of the movie was ready, other casts were n...

Working with Two Monitors

Many times I have wondered, how come a person, able to work on two pc simultaneously, at the same time. I remember in one of the Google Company videos where a guy ( Google Employee ) would be working in two big PC s . It takes me, almost more than a year, to realise that its not two PC s , its just two monitors with extended desktop option provided by the operating system. In those days, it was surprising for me, but now, it was part and parcel of my everyday life. Anyways, Its a great option by which can drag and drop application across the monitors.It was very helpful. Particularly, In my case, as a web application development, where I can code in one monitor and can refresh the browser on the other monitor. If I were doing some documentation. I would open my mail box in the one monitor and keeps doing on the documenting in other monitor. It makes the life simpler and working more effective. ( at the cost of electricity) .. So I would recommend anyone who buys a laptop to buy ano...
