TracerBullet,

A good question, for which have been searching for answers for years.... Still looking but trying to explain.... But for this, we have to change our perception of time and life as we see it....

E.g If we have a dream... which is sad and brings us pain.... When we wake up, we realize that it was just a dream.... So if we can consider our life (with all the aches and pains) in the context of it being a blink in terms of eternity, our perception and thinking of all triumph and victory of evil over good all sadness and pain that seem meaningless to us now, will somehow makes sense......

Another example - Say that a child plays truant and runs across the road without looking, (or such) or being aware of his action, and he does this repeatedly, will a father on seeing this, not correct his child by scolding him or even giving a slap to teach a lesson? If this happens, the child who loves the father may not understand the reason for his fathers painful slap or punishment and may resent him or even hate him.... But this is because of his own immaturity that the child cannot see the fathers love for him.... and that his father has acted in a manner that though it is painful for him to punish the child, it is but what he needs to do as a responsible loving father and for the long term good of his son.

And you can comment... there are no right or wrong answers here, we speak of our own life experiences, thinking, beliefs, search, truths and reality.... this is mine....

I wont continue on this - but why do you think god is supposed to be so. Look around, nature is built on violence. And to flip the argument, if he is kind and loving etc, why would he treat us any diffferent than how humans treat other 'less able' species ..

Makes me laugh really... :lol::lol::lol: Times of India/Economic Times have become the media wing of the BJP.... Seems that now as Priyanka Gandhi is being portrayed as the 'face of Congress campaign' in UP, the knives are being drawn to attack Robert Vadra (who is by no means a saint) While the article says 'How rule by Gandhis has repeatedly pushed country towards indebtedness' The starting para make a full fledged assault on Robert Vadra calling him equivalent to Zardari as Mr. 10%. Biased reporting which is clearly apparent....




The same Times of India reported : Chief minister Narendra Modi's supporters may feel that he has served Gujarat enough and now wants to repay the debt to 'Bharat Mata', but Gujarat's actual debt has mounted from Rs 45,301 crore in 2001-02, when he first came to power, and is projected to touch Rs 176,000 crore by 2013-14, when he plans his flight to New Delhi. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

One should read everything reported in the media with a pinch of salt....


And here is a loaded poll....

Has the Gandhi family's populism made India poorer?

Allegations are made, innuendo created and implied.... Mind programming of the masses in full swing....

In debt to dynasty? How rule by Gandhis has repeatedly pushed country towards indebtedness @EconomicTimes http://ecoti.in/qNxQ0Y

I have always felt that Narendrabhai is the best advertisement for the Congress. They can claim to have built a country where even a poor chaiwala can become the Prime Minister.

VijKrish,

5 post in a row only means I have too much of time on my hands.... :lol::lol::lol:

Jokes apart, writing helps in sharing ideas or thoughts.... and in the process of doing so, helps me to analyze my own beliefs. Not sure if it will help even one person on TJ, but surely writing on TJ in the M6 thread has helped me in my own trading... One of the back post (this month) in my thread, made me to formally note the process of taking optimal entries and trades, and draw out by hand the optimal patterns found in many intraday charts... This resulted in an improved trading performance for me and helped me avoid scratch trades. Just stating a fact - about 25+ trades with a win/loss ratio of 75% +. This was because I tweaked/filtered my entries/rules. To someone now asking for the tweak, I will just say - Something handed over easily has no value or is taken for granted... so I will refrain from writing it again to pointing to the post.... And just to mention, that in the similar vein, I follow the thread of Taurus who makes prediction based on Date/Time and moves... I would never ask for the basis for prediction, but trying to understand another's mindset, helps to find and add edge to one's own trading....

Cheers and have a great weekend.

Even BJP top brass also helped him as they knew that whatever little information other parts of the country have about Gujarat will let him present a very shiny face of BJP.. Rest other BJPians were very well known to most of the North India who were not acceptable as PM due to their historical achievements.

Totally agree Leonid.... For a matter to be raised to PMO for resolution means the system is broken and needs to be fixed.... After all, even if PM Modi works 48/365 instead of 24/365 the number of cases requiring his attention due to faulty system will keep adding up, not reducing.... So it is like saying better to fix the small cog in the engine rather than to take the risk of having the entire replaced.... Incidentally, came across an article yesterday that lays across the point quiet effectively....


Look at me, I am working so hard - Dushyant Arora

http://www.mumbaimirror.com/columns...e-Im-working-so-hard/articleshow/53103519.cms

At a get-together in Delhi a few months ago, a BJP politician was trying to convince a French national that the Indian prime minister was indeed a great leader. He cited two instances: how the PM had intervened to help a person who was facing problems at a passport office; and how the PM helped a teacher, who was struggling to get her dues. The BJP leader also revealed that the PM had hardly any time to sleep. The French national was astonished, but not for the reasons you would expect. "Is there a manpower shortage in your country? Why is the prime minister doing the job of a passport official or a civil court? Doesn't he already have a lot on his plate? No wonder he sleeps so little. Then, who is doing the work that a prime minister needs to do?" she asked.

The politician, who thought the message he was trying to convey may have been lost due to language barrier, replied, "That's not the case. There are many people working at the Prime Minister's Office. They do the responding, the PM only supervises." "But, if that is an efficient system, why not shut down all the passport offices and the courts and have the PMO do everything?" the woman asked. At this point, the politician, visibly annoyed, excused himself. The woman turned to me and asked whether she had missed anything. I asked her if she had seen any Indian movies. She had not, and wondered what movies have to do with the conversation.

The fact is, we Indians love heroes. We are constantly declaring someone or the other as the next saviour/hero and the provider of solutions to all our problems. Anna Hazare, Narendra Modi, Arvind Kejriwal, Kanhaiya Kumar... When these heroes fail, we feel he/she wasn't the one we thought would be, and look for the next one. We tell each other, if only my hero was in charge, things would have been different. Of late, politicians have understood our desperate need for a 'hero', and invest a great amount of time doing 'heroic' things. Institutions be damned.

I was reminded of the aforementioned discussion when Maneka Gandhi, the Union minister for women and child development, tweeted earlier this week that any woman who is harassed over the internet, could write her an e-mail or tweet to her with a certain hashtag, and she would facilitate resolution of her grievances. What followed was a deluge of tweets from men about why they weren't being treated 'equally', since there was no helpline/email for them. I'll save my opinion on this colossal misunderstanding about the idea of equality for another column.

"Maneka Gandhi takes on cyber trolls," roared one national newspaper. Another newspaper claimed that she will "bring such complaints to the notice of the National Commission for Women". Bear with me as I ask a few questions that don't seem to be obvious to anyone else.

1: Why is a Cabinet minister doing the work of a local police station? Are we now going to divest cyber cells of the police of their jurisdiction in the matter?

2: Will the minister's office have time left for macro policy decisions, given how rampant harassment is on twitter?

3: Assuming it is a great decision, why aren't women who are harassed offline being given the same privileges?

4: Why should someone who is harassed in the street be compelled to deal with the local police chowkie, while those on social media reach the Cabinet minister directly?

5: If all that her office will do is "draw the attention of the relevant authorities", why add yet another link in the chain? Surely the Cabinet minister's office isn't a post box?

6: Should reports of petty crime be addressed to the Home Minister, and complaints regarding poor roads to the Urban Development Minister? Which minister does one approach for blocked sewages?

7: Why hasn't the report of the Justice JS Verma Committee been implemented? Why aren't police reforms being implemented by all states? Why doesn't the matter of 'police reforms' not occupy enough space in our narratives? Because you see, it isn't half as 'heroic'. No glory in talking about creating healthy and sustainable institutions.

The entire episode also reminded me of the Janata durbars started by Arvind Kejriwal, wherein he decided to personally meet people and resolve their grievances. The first time this 'durbar' was convened, according to reports, about 50,000 people converged on the venue and the crowds went out of control. The police had to escort Kejriwal out of the venue. What was he thinking? (Edit : This works fine in the movies though - Where the hero will be given ceetes by the adoring public) :lol::lol::lol:

The one lesson political parties have learnt from the fall in the fortunes of the Congress is, whether one does any work or not, it is critical to continuously appear to be doing work, do things that draw the news and the cameras. My advice is, please don't fall for such gimmicks. Let's hold our politicians accountable to more than merely an appearance of doing something. As a cola commercial puts it: "Dikhaave pe mat jaayen, apni akal lagaayen".

We are lagging this part....we attached with parties and spoiling our Mother Land...

We need leaders for people....not parties...

BJP or Congress.....everyone is doing marketing....

But...common man....paying Hefty Educational Fees and suffering with debts....Mallaya is roaming in England. (he is freed by politicians)..

We produly clapping Inflation has come down / Economy is growing....it has never been reflected in the common man life style...

We Indians should see the Leader for our future not the Party...
