Where did they go?

They left the whole kingdom. They were the most prosperous on the earth. The whole city was made of gold. The temples, the palaces. They have well-defined city structures and city organization was similiar to that of Mohen-jo-Daro and Harrapa. Civil facilities like rest houses for travellers across borders. Everything they left. They boldly faced centuries of attacks and they suddenly, they withdraw. The people of Angkorwat suddenly disappear. why?

Khmer Empire
Ankorwat was then the capital of Khmer empire. The Empire which regained its strength in 802 AD and keep prospering for about 5 centuries. Ankorwat temple was built by Suryavarman II in the early 12th century. There is one peculiar thing about this temple which is noticed. Unlike other temples, this temple directs to the west. Some scholars debate that this temple was dedicated to Vishnu, the protector who is situated somewhere in the West(I think its either somewhere in mid-pacific or mid-altantic, either he could be some whre in mid-atlantic ridge or in Mauna Kea, Hawaii ). The earlier rulers were Hindu and later on, they were buddhist.

In 1010 AD, SuryaVarman I became the king and and declared 'Buddhism' as state religion. However, he allowed the people to follow Hinduism. People loved their gods, so they continued worshipping them. But the king lost the faith in old gods, they were uprising from everywhere. SuryaVarman II reunited the whole empire and built Ankorwat temple dedicated to Vishnu, The Protector. Even Jayavarman VII who was buddhist expressed his solidarity to Hindu Gods. He is still regarded as the best king Cambodia ever had.( and the worst were Khmer Rouge! They ruined Cambodia)But later on, Buddhism spread and the temples were converted to dedicate to Buddha. Khmer rulers became more tolerant as they accepted Buddhist philosophy and their attackers became more aggressive. They finally abandon everything and left to somewhere. Where did they go?? I mean how can do they leave their own city like this. Some people suggest they formed a new kingdom in south. But again, it was not so prosperous Why??

Harrapan Civilization
The Harrapan Civilization was much more bigger and extensive than Khmer empire. They too have planned cities and structures which would keep all the present seven wonders out of the race. Why do they left? They too faced attackers from West. But How could one leave such a prosperous civilization?

Although the exact history remains murky, some scholars suggest that they were attacked by Aryans who destroyed the whole civilization, adopted the loser's religion and instead of either returning to their own land or imposing their rule on the conquered land, they cleared jungles of Ganga and establish a new civilization. This is utter non-sense and completely unbelievable ! (UN commented on it by sayng that indian historians have committed a heinous crime against india's heritage and culture.)

I totally disagree with British time Theory that Aryans invaded and made Dravidians their slaves. I believe From the ancient times, there has been an agreement not to cross Vindhyas and attack Dravidians.(Though some violated it!) The relation was like present USA -Canada relationship.The theory of attacks on Jain and Buddhist temples and loot them is all bogus and are nothing more than Machiavellian plans by British scholars to disrupt Indian unity at that time. The Bloody communists who denied any kind of religion further deformed our history. (I hate indian communists! They are neo-autocrats who have destroyed West Bengal).

The answer lies in nature. The nature took a toll on these civilizations. There was a drought in 15th century which forced khmer people to withdraw. No food, no life! The Dutch left and settled in the region which is more turbulent just to get the fertile land. The Indus people left b'coz there were huge tsunamis which arised due to bombardment of asteroids in Arabian sea. These tsunamis might have been as big as 100 feet and wiped out the whole civilization. The salt waters made the land infertile. The Rann of Kutch is the proof. They are forced to move to the plains of Ganga and start a new civilization all together.

This is my hypothesis . please comment on it.

Indomitable Indian Team: YES & Indomitable India Inc: ?


When it comes to chasing, no team in this world can stop India from winning ODIs. We are good chasers. We will more pleased if our bureaucrats can learn from our Indian Team and achieve targets setted up in five year plan. They have to gain the vigour to chase for it, to strive for it and turn dreams into reality.

Indian team wins b'coz they have adopted a new strategy: try fresh talents, dont completely rely on worn out and experienced ones. While the experienced ones provide insight and depth to the game, fresh ones are full of enthusiasm and daring which help in overcomin hurdles.
Our bureaucrats lack this. They are grey haired people who are good planners but lack that vital juice required to implement the plan which is available in youngsters.

The only solution is : Change the Civil Service Entrance Examination structure. Allow fresh minds. Start training them after +12. This will overcome the hurdles which are impending our national growth.

A legal loot





I have been wondering why government at all need taxes? Government tax us for the same object twice or thrice. Forget about that! Government tax us for generating income too. our FM came with the budget on 28th February.

I was really let down. I thought that FM will scrap the FBT shit but he didn't. Instead, he made some modifications and therefore added more clauses so that your taxman can charge u more. And for what, for the development of the country? Hey c'mon dont fool us! Even the footpaths are sponsored and managed by local rowdy.

The biggest shock was the increase of service tax from 10% to 12% . Hey, Chiddi, what do u think, u can loot cities and develop villages? Many times, earlier it has been tried and many times, they have failed.

The communist minded people are really sick people. They dont want any1 rich. They want every1to be poor and downtrodden. Look, what they have done to Kolkata?? I would have appreciated him if he had made provisions for interlinking of rivers and establishment of hydro-electric project. We are goin to face huge electric crisis (WE ARE FACIN IT FROM ABT 10 YRS BUT THIS TIME IT WILL BIGGER). India is thirsty, do u listen to me, Mr. Chidamabaram? your 175000 Cr Rs. loan project will never reach to the intended farmers but to foreign accounts of corrupt bureaucrats. Even if it reach to iota of farmers spread across the country, they will not have water to irrigate their lands.

In any case, we are goin to have a deficit of 175000 Crore Rs. THose poor farmers will commit suicide if they will unable to pay loans .Ultimately, governments have to waive the loans.
I dont know why people consider u (our FM) as an intelligent and capable finance Minister? U r dumb fool!! Just a puppet in hands of corrupt bureaucrats or maybe, u r one of those! SHAME ON U!!

THIS IS A LOOT! I REQUEST EVERY1 to SEND E-MAIL TO FINANCE MINISTRY and make sure their servers get jammed! send e-mails to new agencies and political parties. Choke the postal department with ur hate mails. Govt. cant levy taxes to benefit the corrupt few. We've the right to oppose and we should oppose it.

To tie a knot is somethin alien!

I was preparing for an interview scheduled 4 tomorrow. the first thin that came into my mind is that I dont have a tie. Yes, I'm not used to wear a knot As I feared some freaky will suffocate me to death with this useless piece of cloth.

In fact, sometimes I wonder why human wears cloth and why it is such a big issue for humans. Think for animal point of view, u will end up to astonishing conclusion.

Anywayz, The next moment, I was on my rickety scooty with my cousin. We traversed various shops of cities. I went to Khazana as it was near to my house. The owner gave me a perplexin look as I was wearin Bermuda. He was taken aback when I asked him for the tie. It appeared to him that I'm George of jungle decided to get married overnite.

We were taken to basement where we tried some ties. My cousin suggested we wont find the 1 v r lookin for. For me, every stripe is a series of dots and lines, nothin else. Clearly, I was a dumbo and lacked dressing sense.

We cruised to Opus, a new shop offerin flat 50% off. I wondered why he kept such a unpeculiar, unstimulating name "OPUS". OPUS literally means musical work. But when I reached there at 9:00, I found there was no music. Probably, we were late. Again, the boys and girls for attendin customers gave us a bewildering look. We were the only customers in the shop. We goofed around for sometime, then I hesistatingly asked for a tie.

The man at counter said "We offer only casuals". Now, this is frustating. I cant find a tie in such a big city. I thought Treasure Island may be the final solution. But my cousin bro suggested to try for Vishal garments. It was 9:30 PM and bythis time, most of shops were closed. We've very few options left.

I found all kachodi and samosa shops still open. I got frustated even more. This city is gr8. In the last seven years, I found this city wakes up till 2:00 AM just to have 'Kachodis' and 'Jalebi' at Rajbada. I was then amused.

But I'm really frustated. Can't u open ur shop just for 1 more hr. we reached Vishal Garments and bought a tie. Finally! I got 1. Thanx, Vishal garments. I owe this 1 to u. But I'm not sure whether I'll visit it again in the future.

We came home and my cousin bro, who is expert in dressin sense and worldly affairs teached me to tie a knot. I tried once, then another time and once more, but I never made up to the perfect knot. Atlast, my bro tied it . I googled to find the various ways to tie a knot but it was of little help.

If u ever get an answer why ties are required, plz send me the reason.

Mandal-II in the near future


The corrupt and opportunist politicians have decided to ruin this country for power. No.This is not the first time. It happened earlier. It happened back in 1991. Mandal was then imposed. Rajiv Goswami self-inflamed himself. Thousands have inflamed themselves after that incident . Thousands more were shot dead. In Patna alone, 176 students were shot to death by Laloo Prasad Yadav regime.
Now, Aditya Sharma is on hunger strike in Delhi. God protect him.

Is reservation the only way for the upliftment of backward classes? Not at all. even, they dont consider that. Consider a CPMT topper got admission in premier Medical college. But he belongs to scheduled caste. He didn't require reservation to reach that place.He came out of Medical college and started his practice. Unfortunately, no one visited his clinic. People thought he got thru the medicals by reservation, so he might not be a good doctor. Same is the case with engineers, graduates and others. They dont get jobs in MNCs or private firms. Govt. jobs are no more in surplus.

Reservations do not serve the purpose. In fact, it increases the divide among students and it is dangerous for the society. But who cares for that? our politicians are neo-Britishers. They are following the policy of divide and rule. People ask why there is a brain drain? If some people disagrees, please ask te govt. to reserve all the jobs and seats for backward classes upto 100%. Sure, they can go to that extent to be in power and loot the wealth of the country.

We are trying to compete to the world and still sticking to the old ideas of casteism. If this continues, we are goin to face another economic crisis as it happened in post-Mandal days. There would be riots everywhere. World will not trust India anymore.

I cant just sit and watch my country getting ruined b'coz of these bloody politicians. I dont know how to save it. But I've to something. Something just now, RIGHT NOW...
