somadeva/gunadhya&shamans

perspective on
hindu gwads ghettos!
Lord Hanuman meditating on Sita and Rama.

By Kulamarva Balakrishna

Vienna,Friday, February 8,2008: I have got
this morning a forwarded link to a German
researcher´s (Mr.Payer) work on Hindu
fictions.The forward came from a nephew
now on a short study leave in Atlanta, U.S.,
Srinivasa Bhat. It is regarding a compendium
of Hindu gods made by a German scholar,
Dr.Payer.It is sourced to Somadeva,who
borrowed and edited in Sanskrit the imaginary
stories first written by Gunadhya living in the
Vindhya mountains,close to Dandakaranya of
Ramayana fame, in the folk language of
Pishachis, a people used to eating carcasses
etc indiscriminately. That is because the name
was derived from pishita ashana meaning
eaters of not well preserved,thereby being
garbage hunters for food.It happens even
today behind India´s pride of Taj Mahal Hotel
in Bombay, there is a discarded old public yard
for throwing left over food.Poor beggar tramps
go there hungry but return satisfied.These
are now the successors of =pishitashanas=.
Eric Blair,who became famous as George
Orwell had also begun his creative career
as a voluntary tramp.He was born in India.The
rich tramp literature of a very high quality was
also born in India soon after the advent of
Christ era.It was the time all unexplained
appearances and disappearances were
not examined for verification but accepted
as divine.This approach permeated Hinduism
and Buddhism causing Buddhist split into
Hinayana or Teravada elderly and Mahayana.
This led to an explosion of divine population in
India other than that of heavenly gods described
in the Vedic literature,where gods were
limited to just under 400.They took no birth
and underwent no death.They did not bat an eyelid.
They remained in perpetual youth,enjoyed sex
with designated angels as well as humans.
They travelled in heaven/sky/space as if jet set.
Among them there were more than a dozen
castes including half human and half animal
Sphinx type interested in music and dance.
But all of these divinely caste men and women
were grouped as born of divine wombs= devayonis=!.
Even their cousins the demons/devils had similar
power of moving about in space but they were of
no sophisticated taste in food or sexual contacts.
It is easy to describe them as a class of savage
gods!

This Gunadhya´s paishachic fables were said to
be over twelve volumes in total.According to the
legends only one had survived and from that single
volume a Kashmiri Sanskrit Pandit called Somadeva
made a version of Katha sarit sagara that is the
ocean of rivers of stories/fables.Our own life time´s
phantasmo realistic writer Salman Rushdie has
cross bred the stories with the stories of Arabian
nights only in concept calling it Haroun And The
Sea of Stories to present a lake Baikal of stories.
Just as Baikal lake is the orgin of over 300 rivers,
holding about 20 percent of all sweet water in the
world,the Brihatkatha of Gunadhya, the mother of
Katha sarit sagara is perhaps one fifth of
all creative fantasies of man ever lived on this earth.
Every kind of human imagination we can think of
had come to us in South Asia from Siberia behind
the weather birds.These humans known as shamans
survive even today as gypsies or settled fools
untouched by the advance in civilization.

After the discovery and occupation of India, Europeans
including the British,German and Russians began their
investigation to come to the roots of common inheritance
of man.The language,culture influenced by time and space
are being studied by scholars to reconstruct a sociological
history of man.This work is under progress in a systematic
way in all branches of learning at all educational centres
all over the world.At the same time there are evidences
of Indians studying abroad as Udupi´s =Acharya=
studying in Cambridge investigating a theme that
Ramayana´s second queen mother Kaikeyi,the mother of
Bharata, cousin of Rama had a maid servant called
=manthara=, it was she who advised Kaikeyi to insist
sending Sri Rama on Vanavasa.His hypothesis is that
Manthara was a angel/prostitute of Vedic god Indra
and he sent her to earth as an adviser to queen Kaikeyi.
Manthara took to poisoning her mind so Rama could be
sent to the woods/forests.Indra´s interest it was to
destroy Ravana, the Brahmana king of Srilanka,who
became the emperor of the universe with the blessings
of Shiva, even today worshiped as =koraga= forest
dweller!That such insinuations are not research does
not go into the brains of Hindu jet set glob trotting
young shamans!

As for the encyclopedia of Hindu gods, one need not
go to Germany. There close to Bombay and Pune is
Nashik. At this place a marwari business house
well known as Somayyas have established decades
ago a museum of Hindu gods. There is however,
no heavenly nandana vana gardens but there is
garden house displaying replicas of gods of all
kinds inside the house and out in the garden.It is a
tourist place for Hindus who visit the ancient sites
of Dandakaranya.The Somayyas are the same family
of Marvaris, who set up at Ghatkopar, the Hindu
University called Somayya Vidya Vihar,where in the
secondary level schools, there was an illegal practice
of taping girls´ mouth shut by the ugly female principals,
since they believe Hindu girls should be protected
savagely as the Wahabis do of their female children
in sand land Saudi Arabian kingdom of the custodian
of unholy places.(end)

maharishi mahesh yogi
was one gawd man who proved
empty talks do not sell


By Kulamarva Balakrishna

Vienna,Thursday,February 7,2008:Typical
of India creating a false certificate to go
cheating.That is what The Times of India
has done by posting part of my tributes to
Mararishi Mahesh Yogi,who died yesterday
in the Netherlands at the age of 91,after
proving empty talks do not sell.I had avoided
paying a tribute to the =guru= who claimed
powers to fly on air like birds, but did not
because of silly excuses in the seventies,
to take refuge in trade mark =maharishi
ayurveda= TM is trade mark not for Transcendental
Meditation for selling.I am aware of this
never angry man organizing the =cult of
creative intelligence=.I know some thing about
true yoga I am engaged in writing a contemporary
commentary on sage Patanjali´s yoga sutras,
to trust walking on water or flying in the air
yogis.

I had written about this unsuccessful yogi but
successful propagandist for sanatana Hinduism,
whatever nonsense it may mean,on the occasion
of announcement that seclusive man indeed
had taken seclusion since January 8 this year.
True yogis remain secluded.It is natural.But
going about jet set beating humbug drums
do not make any one a yogi.Maharishi Mahesh
Yogi was nothing but an individual identity
of a clever man claiming to possess extra-ordinary
powers of yoga achievements.

My only unflattering tribute to Mahesh Yogi,
which was published by The Times of India
was that =this one godman had not become a
law and order problem in India=.The rest have
since the death of our great Home Minister Gulzari
Lal Nanda especially.He had taken sadhus or
godmen off the roads by organizing =Bharat
Sadhu Samaj=.Even then because of the first
President of India, Babu Rajendra Prasad´s
superstitious belief bathing in holy sangam that
is the thigh joint of Ganga and Yamuna rivers,
as described by classic sanatana pandits,
=ganga yamunayor madhye ye vasanti=
(meaning one thigh is ganga another is yamuna,
the pandits explain for the reason of living there)
at Kumbha Mela to ensure a reserved room in
heavenly abode of gods after death,naked sadhus
rushed at the two rivers langotiless langoti joint
known as triveni sangam near Alahabad causing
over a hundred deaths by stampede.
In today´s context, I do not know him, I would not
include him, Swami Agnivesh among the unruly
=langoti monkeys=, that is man monkeys wearing
wrestlers tied slips causing stampede deaths
in places of pilgrimages! (end)

Above trade mark banner put up in the public in thousands



By Kulamarva Balakrishna

Vienna,Thursday, February 7,2008: The art of living is in land grabbing.
I could not believe it when Prof.Dr.Narendra Nayak alerted to me that
Guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar topped the list of Adichunchanagiri
landgrabbers near Bangalore.Then I saw a fashion photo of the man
dressed as a fuedal Peshva in Gwalior or somewhere in Madhya Pradesh.
I miss that =mayavi= photo some where.I am aware this =appearance
and disappearance specialist gawd man even offers to negotiate with
Marxist Naxals terrorists in India and Islamic terrorists worldwide.
In the name of promoting spiritualism of India these scoundrels are
going about a systematic thuggery of the pre-British days! Now I have
an article provided by Prof.Nyak written by Ms.Bhamy Shenoy.Even
these superstition marketing trade names (TM) are taking the United
Nations for a ride by going the Non Governmental Organizations (NGO)
route who get government cash.Vandana Shiva included. Superstitions
do not help social wellbeing.On the contrary, they under mine it.Most
of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) aids land up
in the hands of these spiritual trade mark (TM) marketing hambug gurus,
is indeed a shame on the U.N.system as a whole. Now let me present
you Ms.Bhamy Shenoy of Mangalore:

By Bhamy Shenoy

U.N.taken for a ride
by superstitious guru
trade mark (TM)
holder sri sri ravi shankar


Recently I had been to Ravi Shankar’s Ashram located close

to Bangalore to take part in what was announced as an NGO

meet to discuss environmental protection and access to social

justice. Within few hours of its inauguration, I fled from his

ashram which was looking more like a jail with several security

guards and hundreds of spy like volunteers.


This is one of the cleverest hoaxes perpetrated in the name

of spiritual movement using the facade of NGOs. I came with

a distinct impression that Ravi Shankar is a great genius like

the late Dhirubhai Ambani or yester years US barons,

Rockefeller, Morgan, Mellon etc. One needs to admire his

entrepreneurial capability of earning huge profits from a

simple idea of organizing an NGO summit in collaboration

with U.N’s END POVERTY MILLENIUM CAMPAIGN,

( Sri Sri Ravi Shankar´s poverty) advertising as speakers

such famous people like Dr. Pachauri,(the chairman of Nobel

Peace Prize sharing inter governmental panel) Vandanam Shiva,

(Sundarlal) Bahuguna, Surabaya etc. Shanakr’s ashram is a

commercial operation doling out psychological products

specially for some foreigners and middle class men and

women who have studied in English Medium School.

Surprisingly there were more women volunteers than men.

It was impressive to see how so many could be motivated

to give their services to produce profit for an institution.

This requires genius of the highest order. I even met a

professor from IIT Mumbai who is a volunteer there!


When I expressed my disappointment with the whole

show, she was very "sympathetic" and assured me that

she felt the same way first and later thanks to "guruji" she

could see the light. Uniformly every volunteer to whom

I complained about the NGOs being taken for a ride, responded

in the same manner as though all of them were robots

programmed by some unknown force!

After charging Rs. 5000 (about 150 dollars) as a delegation

fee, Art of Living was providing delegates a room with

three persons and no towels, soap, drinking water, etc.

Food was sub standard where we are expected to wash

dishes after eating (like in Ahmedabad Bania´s restaurant

=Vishala=kb.). I do not think delegates were taking part

to learn about self help as his disciples/devotees may be

expected to do. We did not go there as his disciples. I

refused to wash dishes which was not liked by some.

This is not because I dislike it. I have done it often. But

on the web site I was offered better lodging and food

facilities in “International Center”. What a wonderful way

of captive advertising Sri Sri Shankar’s product by

charging us!. Companies pay money to advertise their

product and here Sri Sri Shankar collects money from

us for the privilege of learning about his non products and

services. This requires unusual capabilities. There were

‘Satsanghs’ ( good companionships,this means business,

matrimonial and any multidimensional gullible human

contact imaginable including gun trotting terrorist,drug

dealers as witnessed in Puttaparti =satya sai´s

palace years ago), "free" introductory yoga classes,visit

to his first abode, etc. I am sure some NGOs would have

decided to buy his non substantive products and will act

as his emissaries.Of course there will be few like me who will

attempt to do just the opposite. There were spies in the

ashram observing people like me. It was obvious and at

one time I was even frightened.During an evening ‘Satsangh’,

there were some prompted questions put to Sri Sri Ravi

Shankar. Still his responses were pedestrian at best. One

of the questions was about the new burning topic of global

warming and climate change and what does Sri Sri Shankar

think about them. First he ridiculed those who are worried

about such things and proceeded to give the example of

Y2K (two thousand years) phenomenon.Sri Sri Ravi

Shankar dwelt on how foolishly people worried about Y2K,

the world coming to an end, places exploding, etc and how

nothing of the kind took place. He was suggesting

that Y2K was not a problem and so also global warming.

Little did he take into consideration elaborate precautions

taken by the world to prepare for Y2K and how India

became of world capital for IT outsourcing as a result.

What a pity such an ignoramus is considered as a "guruji"

even by the fire brand Vandana Shiva. Some one asked the

question about the unrest and violence in Kashmir and his

response was to pat the questioner and to state youth

should get involved. Is it possible he has the ability to

negotiate with Naxals, LTTE, Al Quaida in Iraq etc?

How media has created this “guruji” with such

supernatural powers?


After spending less than 24 hours, I decided to leave

the place. The cult like atmosphere was suffocating.

Some other delegates from Mangalore with whom I

have been conversing also decided to leave after the

inauguration. One of the speakers Ananth Nadakarni,

vice President for Tata Council for Community Initiatives

also decided to leave early.(He should have stayed to get

input on Nano bashing)Another speaker who was to talk

on HIV left even before the first day. But for Vandana

Shiva, none of the experts and well known speakers

Dr.Pachauri (Chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel

for Claimatic Protection,which shared last year´s Nobel

Peace Prize with Al Gore) Ashok Khosla, Bahuguna etc

were present. Is it possible that their names were

prominently placed to sell the Sangam?


We were told that about 500 delegates had registered

and there were three silver sponsors. (No golden sponsors!!!)

They must have raised at least Rs three million rupees

and incremental cost would be no more than Rs. 300,000.

This is an excellent and clever way of making huge profit.

Business colleges should use this as a case study. We should

admire the (empty) entrepreneurial capabilities of Sri Sri

Ravi Shankar.It needs genius.(Even the late Maharishi

Mahesh Yogi was not successful selling empty talks like

claiming the power of flying.He then took to selling his own

Trade Marked =maharishi ayurveda=kb.).Despite being a

key note speaker (key to reach U.N.system- kb.), Vandana

Shiva spoke just for few minutes and that too in a

rambling manner. She took the opportunity to bash Tata's

people´s Nano car. Her so called key note speech was dull

and did not dwell on the main subject. A high school student

(in any case the meaning of alternative is second choice!.kb)

could have delivered a better speech with greater insight.

One High Court judge also gave an uninspiring talk making

no points on topics except offering "pranams" to "guruji".

What a joke! I attended the first seminar of the summit,

I have learnt from a participating activist that the

meeting was a total failure and many were totally

disillusioned.


I am planning to demand the return of payment

(of Rs.5000) since facts were misrepresented to me

while registering. I am exploring the possibility

of filing a case in Consumer Forum.(end)

team up

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is still very unclear as to how she will put out universal health care to the entire U.S.  Health insurance is an important topic in the election, and one which her opponent, Barack Obama, has questioned her on.  Clinton has only confirmed that she will penalize those who refuse the health insurance, we just don't know much else

seva dal

we need dedicated
disciplined volunteers

DR. N.S. HARDIKAR 1370 Indian Post
Dr.Narayan Subbarav Hardikar (1889
May 7,-1975 August 26)

By Kulamarva Balakrishna

Vienna,Wednesday, February 6,2008:Harnessing
human resources of India for country´s freedom
and development was the goal of many a constructive
politicians of the past.Dr.N.S.Hardikar was one such
model Indian. He had no interest in self promotion.
He gave up higher studies in the United States to
join the national freedom movement with Lala Lajpat
Rai and follow Mahatma Gandhi.In America he worked
for the Indian cause and on return he set up Rashtriya
Seval Dal, a deovted band of disciplined workers.DrHardikar
lived till his death on August 26,1975 model citizen.He had
established a health care centre at Ghataprabha,
Karnataka.

There was a separate Congress Seva Dal, a volunteer
force, evolved to popularize the ideals of congress that
is promotion of hand spun textiles,known as khadi
and village industries besides mobilizing public opinion
for Indian independence.

I am sure just having taken the responsibility of re-
invigorating the Indian National Congress, as its
General Secretary,Rahul Gandhi will pay attention
in attracting the young in this man power development
area to wean away young people from going on streets
sloganeering and stone throwing.That is what is needed
not dividing the country but uniting so that every
Indian can have food,home and feel proud of his country.

We do not need mob rule.That is not democracy.
Democracy involves both participation and sharing.
A sense of belongingness to a nation,India being part
of the human community all over the world,irrespective
of sex,race,colopur or religion.All belong together
enjoying equal rights and responsibilities.In =sanatana
dharma= unknown to langoti monkeys =ma kaschid
dukhkham apnuyat= (let no one suffer unhapiness)
remained India´s classic slogan.

I want to know, which of these =falthu= leaders
of India have dedicated themselves to the common
good.I see hope in Manmohan Singh and the maligned
foreign born mother of our two golden Indian children.
Sonia Gandhi,when she fell in love with Rajiv Gandhi
did not think of a political career.It was thrust on
her as was the power fell on her husband Rajiv
Gandhi,the eldest son of the =new soul of India= as
described by poetess Sarojini Naidu,when she got
the news that Jawahar Lal Nehru had become
a father!

I remember Vijaya Lakhshmi Pandit when she was
the Governor of Maharashtra, telling me her
disappointment about general rut of politicians
of the day.She was not a socialist like her brother.
But she was good in her judgement of men around
the corridors of power.She loved her brother and
the country. But the current monkey mobs menace
is the limit.The time has come to save the country
from langoti monkeys.(end)

Bal Thackeray today

By Kulamarva Balakrishsna

Vienna,Wednesday,February 6: Gopalalkrishna
Gokhale,Lokamarna Balagangadhara Tilak,the
two great Maharashtrians of all times, Dadabhai
Naoroji,Pherozshah Mehta, the two great Bombnay
polititians of outreaching capabilities, and the great
builder of Modern India Jamshydji Tata all
belonged to Maharashtra who were great Indians
of modern times,loved and revered by Indians
everywhere.Any one of them and every one of
them could have won India´s heart massively to
lead the country in their times.But in today´s
Maharashtra,leaders of politics of mafia mobs
led by my friend,Bal (Musalmani=saheb=) Thackeray
the frog, Salman Rusdhie´s =Meinduck= and
his fighting kids empty brain mates have killed
the chances many generations of Maharshtrians
to lead India.Sharad Pawar was sidelined
because of these fools. Maharashtra does
not deserve unruly mobs, despite their show
of hollow unity among themselves.

What a pity. Pune was considered once
India´s capital of intelligent people.Ranade,
Paranjape, Bhandarkar,Karve,Jyotiba Phule
and Babasaheb Ambedkar do they deserve
these successors of today? When Bombay
was still a fledgling port town, It was Jamshydji
Tata who built it up.He could get no Marathi
labourers for his industrial units or reclamation
work then.He went deep north into Madhya
Pradesh and U.P. that was known as United
Provinces to get people from the interior
to work in Bombay.He made for them special
apartments to live.Offered good wages.
That is how Bombay became Urbus Prima
Indis. Gujarati,Sindi and Marwari traders,
even Muslim Persians made Bombay home
and helped its growth.There were no =Hindu
hridayasamtrats= (emperor of hindu hearts)
then. Bal Thackeray´s father was an anti-brahmin
demogogue,no more.For that he was called
=prabodhanakar=.

Besides,Bombay became Bombay because
of the Prarthana Samaj, the reformist movement
of brahminism.It became the center of woman´s
liberation as a Maharashtra origin Mangalorean
girl, Pandita Ramabai Saraswati to chose the
city to establish her Seva Sadan (home of service)
in addition to joining hands to strengthen
Prarthana Samaj.In such a city now rats rule.There
are now no proper sewage discharge facilities.
Rural Konkanis and Chandraseniya Khatriya
Pathare Prabhus, popularly known as CKPs
led by Bal Thackeray clan have drowned
=mumbadevi= temple in human discharge
excreta making it a pinjarpole.There is no provision
for the citizen for the supply of adequate pure
drinking tap water.Even fresh air from the sea is
polluted by industrial wastes of different origins.
Bombay has become not a place worthy of
human habitation overtaking Louis Malle´s
Calcutta. This subhuman substandard city is
only patronized by job seeker bachelors.
Because of that it has also become a heaven
for slave traders organized crime syndicates
and underworld dons.A shame.

One man, I should not neglect to mention,that
Dadasaheb Phalke, the pioneer of motion picture
industry attracted creative people from all corners
of the country to make the city Indian Hollywood.
It was Prithviraj Kapur,and his clan, similarly
a great many number of Muslim men and women
made Bombay the center of entertainment
industry.Sane Marathis would have used the
advantage to lead India politically. Instead
drinking Goregaon based buffalo milk,
(buffalo milk is said to make drinker worse half
wits than the thick skinned animals themselves!)
have the marathis gone idiot nuts? Why do they
shun all India respect and credibility? Can any
mumbaikar answer me please? (end)
