VILLAIN OR HERO ??

Many traits and living habits of villains and heroes, as depicted and almost standardized by new generation after adoption film standard in their lives, are such that you can not distinguish a hero and a villain not only in Indian films but films in other countries also. Why we call some one a hero and some other fellow a villain? It is difficult to see clearly, but a close study might show you the very thing. Various attributes of Hero and Villain are given below. Many are alike. So the question appears more serious than it looked. The only difference as can be observed from below is attitude towards girls/ladies other than his own lady love. Heroes in olden days, as interpreted from films, could, some times weep. but the villain never wept. Villain would rather die at the hands of hero but not weep. But it is not so now. The Hero also observes constraint. The difference is thus narrowing down and it makes the matter more difficult for teenage girls to fall in love.



What do you think you prefer? a villainous Hero or a hero-ish Villain? or both or none?

The typical shape of our Hindu Flag....

I tend to think more practically than intellectually when it comes to religion.Thinking about the flag which hinduism has adopted, I was deeply puzzled with its peculiar shape. Gereral adopted shapes would be the basic geometric shapes such as a rectangle, square, circle , triangle or may be further shapes adding more sides to it. But THIS is extraordinary shape. Neither we have any documents regarding it nor do we have any mythological stories even to relate to. What can be the ideology for this??

In the days of kingdoms and rulers, the armies were going for voyages and campaigns. Also we had the 'warkari sampradaay' or the pilgrims for yatras. For a voyage one needs to have a set of items to take along. These should be very handy and often designed to be so. Say a bedding, a tent, a map, a weapon, a lamp/ torch, and few other things alongwith.

Its more than a coincidence to know that the shape of the flag can attain a shape of curvature of 1/8th part of a sphere. Imagine a Hindu flag cut out of a square cloth and the shape where the cut is given, is fixed with a zip to the end.If u unzip it, its a shape of a flag- a hindu flag. If you zip it, it attains a curve as described above. the shape is same as 1/8th part of a lemon when given three full mutually perpendicular cuts.






This further can be studied to understand that such 8 flags would together represent a full globe if drawn the geographic/political boundaries. Hence the campaigners need not carry maps still having exact display of their destination and origin (better than the maps drawn on paper which cannot represent the polar locations to the scale)

Also bigger flags if combined evenly would form excellent curvature making a tent to camp in hence serving a multipurpose tasks for a voyager.

Knowledge I believe is one which once heard, simply cannot be forgotten any how.
