Is Time Precious?

-

 Time isn't precious at all, because it is an illusion. - Eckhart Tolle


This can be very easily misunderstood. Time makes sense only to the mind, not to Consciousness. If a person has not yet realized the Self, timelessness won't make sense. To the mind every second is precious.

Indian style Ketogenic diet

-
        Before even I completed reading the book "The art and science of low carbohydrate living" I realized how dangerous it is to have carbohydrates on a regular basis as the main fuel to my body. I however did not know what to eat if I got rid of Rice and Wheat. Though there were a lot of books, Articles and Videos about Ketogenic diets and recipes they were mostly from western countries. There were a few Intelligent Indians who had followed and written about their ketogenic diets and recipes. However it was not sufficient. Especially since I was a Vegetarian who does not eat even eggs.      On top of this my Wife who cooks all my food was crying after seeing what I am trying to get rid of. And my Mom and In-Laws also got to know about this and started questioning the validity of a diet which gets rid of Rice. My office colleagues also were questioning the basic premise of the diet. However eventually everybody started ...

Review of the movie - Enthiran

-
I rarely watch movies. And definitely I have never thought of reviewing any movie. But something wanted me to review Enthiran. Generally movies contain silly illogical things. Enthiran, being the first of its kind in Tamil, also has silly illogical scenes and dialogues. We should and can easily ignore most of them. Before reading this review, it is better to get to know the plot of the Enthiran. At the face of it: Saloon scene was enjoyable, though scanning the telephone directory just by shaking it twice was a bit unbelievable even as a fantasy. Dialog between Traffic constable and Chitti was good. Chitti surprising vaseegaran by saying he is his creator and hence god was a well thought out scene. Chitti looking like Kali after attracting the weapons was really looking nice. Train sequence was really titillating the eyes, though we should have expected such a sequence in the movie. We have seen such super heroic scenes in the previous Rajni movies and Shankar movies. Only here,...

Why men can't compare two girls seen at different times

-
Assume that a man sees girl 1 on day 1. Let it generate 100 pleasure molecules in amygdala(emotional part of the brain). We do not have exact measuring instruments in brain to register the number 100. An approximate image and descriptions of the girl will be stored in, say, Neuron Group 1(NG1). On day 2, he sees girl 2. Let it generate 90 pleasure molecules in amygdala. Now the man tries to compare girl 2 with girl 1. We have NG1 which projects the approximate image of girl 1. Amygdala may generate 80 molecules for the approximate images of girl 1. And we have Neuron Group 2(NG2) which compares the approximate image of girl 1 and the now present image of girl 2. ( Actually NG2 compares the signals generated by Amygdala for approximate images of girl 1 and the now present images of girl 2) Though, in reality, girl 1 looks more prettier than girl2 for the man, the fact that he could only use the approximate images of girl1 screws up the results of the comp...
