Spirituality : Draupadi was pure despite Polyandry

It has always been a debate how Draupadi could be assumed chaste even after having five husbands. She is also revered as one of the ‘great five virgins’ (pancha satee) of mythology by uttering whose names all sins gets excused by its virtuous influence. The reasons are described herewith.

1) As per Narada and Vayu Puranas, Draupadi was composite Avatar of Goddesses Shyamala (wife of Dharma), Bharati (Wife of Vayu), Sachi (wife of Indra), and Usha (wife of Ashwinis) and hence married their earthly counterparts in the form of the five Pandavas and so there is nothing to question her chastity.

2) Draupadi was also avatar of Goddess Shree or Wealth who was joint wife to five Indras, the Five Pandavas. She was to be born several times for imprisoning the Indras. First time was as Vedavati who cursed Ravana (who is another goddess Avatar Swaha, wife to Agni). She then came again as Maya-Sita especially to take revenge from Ravana while Agni hid the real Sita. Third one was partial either Damyanti (whose husband Nala was equivalent to Dharma, Vayu, Indra just like the Pandavas) and her daughter Nalayani. She married Sage Mudgala. The fifth avatar was Draupadi herself. So we find in Draupadi, a composite avatar of Kali, Parvati, Sachi, Shyamala, Usha, Bharati, Shree, Swaha, the eight goddesses. 

Hence, Draupadi could be taken to be granted as an icon of chastity even though practicing polyandry.

Indian Press in Peril : The Times Now/ Justice Sawant Case

It will not be wrong to say that Indian Press is in peril looking into the Times Now news channel and Justice PB Sawant conflict recently.

Former Justice of the Supreme Court of India initiates a defamation case u/s 500 of the Indian Penal Code against the Times Now channel alleging the later of showing a photograph of him (wrongly) in place of P K Samantha, a serving judge of the Kolkata high court, alleged to be involved in the Ghaziabad district court provident fund scam in 2008.

The news channel admitting the incidence, begs apologizes to the esteemed justice personally and also in its broadcast scrolling for following five days. They respectfully vow that it was a technical mistake which was neither intentional nor a libel. It was inadvertently and unintentionally happened for which they sincerely apologize. The photograph was also shown for merely 15 seconds.

But still not satisfied with the apology, the victim went to the court in Pune and moved a defamation case. Shockingly, the Honorable Court punished the accused party ordering it to pay a fine of 100 crore rupees.

Accordingly, the news channel moved to the Bombay High Court for an appeal challenging the decision in September 2011. But the High Court also rejected the appeal and maintained the lower Court order.

Times News Group further moved to the apex court of India, the Supreme Court, to order a stay in the above matter, but the Supreme Court bench presided over by Justice G. S. Singhvi of the Honorable Supreme Court rejected the appeal and upholds the interim order last Monday.

Reacting to the ruling, The Editors Guild of India, Foundation for Media Professionals, Broadcast Editors Association (BEA) and many more apex press associations of India has expressed concern against the order.

“It is true that the allegation has been proved (and for which the concerned channel has sincerely begged apology). But is it justified to award a fine of such a huge amount of 100 crore rupees as the damage for defamation? Moreover, each day the world is witnessing different type of violation of rules, regulations and law and commitment of crimes in India in different media.  In those case why the Court is not awarding such exemplary punishment? Kasab has been arrested red handed, killing more than 100 people including citizens of 27 foreign countries. How the Court is silent in his matter even after such a long time? The present case shows – because the victim this time was a member of the same community who have awarded this punishment.” Like this many questions were discussed in a meeting held by the press reporters in Bhubaneshwar on last Thursday.

The order in this case is a matter of concern for the media persons in India. It has limited the fundamental right to freedom of speech as provided in article 19 of the Constitution. 

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1: Film Review

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn- Part 1 today released throughout India.  It is already in the theaters of USA last week (Nov 18).

Breaking Dawn is only going to be a film that Twilight fans enjoy. If you haven't read and fallen in love with the books, there is nothing here for you. You won't get it, and you won't be able to take it seriously. If you love the books however, this movie is exactly what you've been waiting for.

Breaking Dawn has been split into two movies much like the last Harry Potter films. But what frustrates you is that you begin the film knowing that there is no climax.

In Breaking Dawn: Part 1, we start a day before the wedding and go until right after Renesmee(Daughter of Bella and Edward) is born and Bella is turned.

As the reception ends - the honeymoon begins. We remain swept up in the perfect world that every girl wishes she was a part of - only when Bella realizes that there's something not quite right, the film's tone changes entirely.

The honeymoon is over and Bella is pregnant, and her baby isn't completely human. Bella and Edward rush back to Forks, Washington to address the issue with the other Cullens.

It doesn't take long to see that this child is sucking the life out of her (And the digital effects they use in these scenes to make Bella look sickly skinny are truly disturbing). She looks as if she is on the verge of becoming a zombie. 

As the fetus grows rapidly, it threatens Bella`s life. But she is unwilling to abort the baby despite the advice of everyone around. Afraid of the half-human, half-vampire baby growing inside Bella, the wolves plan to kill her even as the Cullen family and Jacob (Taylor Lautner), fight to save her.

Breaking Dawn: Part 1 disappoints when compared to the previous Twilight films. The Breaking Dawn is good only for the die-hard fans of the Twilight series, or teenage girls with fairy tale romance lighting up their eyes. Others beware of a headache.

HIV is not the cause of AIDS : Scientists

Some famous scientists and researchers have revealed that HIV is not the cause of AIDS, rather the whole world has been made fool for the commercial benefit of a bunch of top international business tycoons.

In the year 1984, Dr. Robert Gallo and the then Secretary of Health (U.S) Margaret Heckler announced that the probable cause of AIDS had been discovered and H.I.V. is the sole cause. And since then the mainstream media has the report of only this reason of the disease. But actuality is something else, something more shocking. Let us see what some most eminent scientists opine in this context.

"If there is evidence that HIV causes AIDS, there should be scientific documents which either singly or collectively demonstrate that fact, at least with a high probability. There is no such document." says Dr. Kary Banks Mullis, the Nobel Prize winning Biochemist of U.S.

"I do not regard the causal relationship between HIV and any disease as settled. I have seen considerable evidence that highly improper statistics concerning HIV and AIDS have been passed off as science, and that top members of the scientific establishment have carelessly, if not irresponsible, joined the media in spreading misinformation about the nature of AIDS."  states Dr. Serge Lang, a Professor of Mathematics, at Yale University.

"It is not proven that AIDS is caused by HIV infection, nor is it proven that it plays no role whatever in the syndrome." Says Dr. Harry Rubin, Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California at Berkeley.

"In the old days it was required that a scientist address the possibilities of proving his hypothesis wrong as well as right. Now there's none of that in standard HIV-AIDS program with all its billions of dollars."  Says Dr. Richard Strohman, Emeritus Professor of Cell Biology at the University of California at Berkeley.

"The HIV-causes-AIDS dogma represents the grandest and perhaps the most morally destructive fraud that has ever been perpetrated on young men and women of the Western world." Opines Dr. Charles Thomas former Professor of Biochemistry, Harvard and John Hopkins Universities.

We can very well estimate from these aforementioned statements that HIV is not a cause to AIDS. Rather we have been kept in darkness and have not been intimated with the other side.

The fact is that, the causes of AIDs are – abuse of drugs, malnutrition and foreign proteins in the body. Peter Duesberg maintains that there has never been a case in which a patient had sufficient quantities of HIV to cause an immune system disorder.

Hence herewith, we appeal to the whole world that in the coming World AIDS Day on 1^st December 11, we should change our mind to the conventional theory about the cause of HIV and adopt the actual one.

News: Fast unto death by Attabira MLA

Attabira MLA, Nihar Mahanand is going for a ‘fast unto death’ from tomorrow onwards demanding immediate repairing of the N.H.6 at the District Collector’s Office, Bargarh.

It may be noted that N.H.6, the National Highway connecting Mumbai and Kolkata runs also through Bargarh, an agriculture and industry based District, along with other towns and cities. The road is an important connecting media and of national importance.

But the National Highway Authority does not think it necessary to mend it near Bargarh. The High Way runs across the city of Bargarh. The condition of the road is severely miserable and lots of accidents go on daily. It has been neglected since long. The temporary works that has been done is not sufficient enough at all.

The road is also a question to the ecosystem as it provides immense pollution and dust allergy to the dwellers of this town.

Lots of agitations have been initiated in the earlier days but in vain.

In this circumstance, now Nihar Ranjan Mahanand, Member of the Legislative Assembly, Bargarh, has come forward to go for a fast unto death protest for immediate repairing of the road.
