Think or sink!

We never know when we may need what has been hibernating for over 5 decades!
Two little girls are appearing for music examination.
Their teacher teaches well but has no certificates.
But the students must prove that they are the students of a qualified teacher.
So suddenly people find an urgent use for my certificates dated 1960, 1962 and 1963!
We are not lying since those two girls have learned a lot from me too in the past ! :)
 
Tapasya is anything done with undivided attention sacrificing personal comforts.

I learned that it is not enough if one gets lost in what he/she is doing with unified concentration,

but one must be indifferent to the needs of the body like hunger and thirst even after completing the

tapasya. Well! the title rushi/ tapasvi/ tapasvivni does not come easily! right???

One man's tapasya appears to be punishment to another who gets scared by the sight

and fears or hates the tapasvi and determines never to become one as long as he lives! :high5:

 
I wish people were a little more open and transparent, sensitive and sensible

They book the train tickets weeks in advance but do not disclose their travel plan nor that of their stay.

So when they plan, either they should keep it 100% secret and save the unnecessary worries in the minds of the others OR come out with 100% of their plan.

One has to keep wondering what will happen, when they will come, whether they will come to our place and stay or just visit or ignore us.

At times ignorance is not a bliss!!!

Unless one is an all rounder ( in other words, when the cross section of the body in any direction is always a circle) , posing sideways makes him/her look slim (comparatively).

Posing has a lot of info to convey to the attentive onlooker.

A lady whose hair, eye brows, eyelashes and skin are of the same golden color, will never pose for a photo 'without putting on a face'- meaning applying red lipstick, black/blue eye liner and mascara.

One who is very short stands on tip toes when the camera is clicked.

One who has a pot belly always conceals it with the help of his dress

Those with large eyes try to make them appear larger by posing with a lowered chin and looking up with wide open eyes.

Some movie stars have signature poses and even angles of the face.
They always present their best face and body to the camera.

Will you believe me when I say that a photo printed with the right half of the face and the reversed left half, as well as the photo printed with the left half of the face and reversed right half would look very different from the actual person?

But it is true since man is asymmetric both externally and internally.
 
It would be nice if these women walk sideways fast instead of forward.

From sides they do look pretty.

Also some say big built ladies are healthier and more happy than the others.

Shakespeare said Cassius has a lean and hungry look . Do not trust him.

I like women who look healthy . Such women are more trustworthy than others.

Dear Mr. krish,
Healthy looking ladies ( meaning those who are pleasantly plump) do not feel bad about their natural figure. So they do not punish themselves with impossible diets nor push themselves towards improbable goals.
So they are generous, gentle, happy, friendly, trusting and trustworthy like you-know-who! :rolleyes:
 
Walking sideways will be difficult for both men and women.
So they can walk side by side when the man can look at her from her (attractive) side!
But they must also look ahead now and then to keep track of the traffic!
Or this will become a dangerous Sideways-mania like the Selfie-mania! :sacred:
 
There is little difference between scared and sacred.

Keep it up.

Talking of walking sideways, do you know ghosts have feet turned 180 degrees and they do not walk with feet on the ground.

they practice magnetic levitation and can move in any direction very fast.

Do you like ghost stories?

dear Mr. krish,
Recently I have started tyipng alphabtes in wrogn ordre.
I think it has a fancy name too!
Quite often my :scared: becomes sacred :angel:!
I just found the name of this kind of error.
It rhymes with Hypoglycemia and has 'typo' added to it. :typing:
Can you guess the word correctly sir? :)
 
Ghosts had better levitate using magnetism! :rolleyes:

With their face facing front, feet facing backwards
they must find it very difficult to walk as we do!

They don't use their feet and glide along scaring the wits out of the believers!

I believe in ghosts because I believe in good spirits too!
They come in pairs like light and darkness, good and evil, heat and cold etc!

But I am not afraid of them since they are afraid of Hanuman who is our real protector.
Animals have no ego and it is said that Narahari and Hanuman jump forward eagerly to help their ardent and faithful devotees!
 
One of my dear ones typed one letter less in a word and got into a problem! :sad:

She typed 'fiend' skipping the letter 'r' after 'f '!!

And that friend was one of her in-laws! ;)
 
Forbidden fruit is the sweetest.
It is not just forbidden fruit.
Forbidden ANYTHING is a must!
I have two Orpadis (Co sister in laws) living as my neighbors.
Both are widows in 80 (minus) and 70 (minus) age groups.
Both are loaded with gold on their body!
I can never manage to count the number of strings around their necks
or the number of bangles in their hands.
Stone studded bangles have become articles of everyday use.
The 80 (minus) mami has difficulty in walking.
Surely she will be a sitting duck in case of a robbery.
But she will be a shouting duck and not a silent duck
since her voice can be heard all over the colony.
She herself says that people commit murders even for imitation jewels.
Then why does she walk around like a jewelry stand along with her co-sis-in law?
The other name for gold in Tamil is "aatkolli" ( that which causes human murders). :scared:
 
Install a small hand wash basin in the dining room and you are doomed for the rest of your life! :(

People suddenly become very cleanliness conscious - especially after they have finished eating and

while the others are still eating.

They clean every orifice above the naabhi (thank God for small mercies) standing near the wash

basin. They wash their hands and mouth, gurgle and gargle, splash water on their eyes and face,

blow their nose like a trumpet making Gajendra sulk in shame, and bring up the entire mucus lining

from inside the body and spit in with proper background music. If the blowing is too fierce, it will

produce additional music from the rear end also.

If in spite of all these sound and visual effects you are able to continue eating, YOU ARE BLESSED!

Two women turned up in the jewelry shop yesterday and wanted to buy the Maharashtra style of nose

ring. (Thanks to Bajirao Mastani for reviving this interest!)

The 'pachchaith thamizhan' in the shop did not understand their 'kochaith thamizh'. I volunteered to

translate their request from Hindi to Tamil.

They wanted a circular nose ring with stones studded on to it.

When the shop keeper promised to bring them the nose rings by evening and told them to make a

token deposit ( as low as rs 50/-) to show that they are really interested they backed out promptly!

I also noticed that they both wore nothing on their ears but had a small single gem studded nose

screw on their left nostril.
 
I have been advised by my well wishers long since to undergo knee replacement surgery.

But things I hear and the people I come across keep warning me!

Last week met a lady in the Physiotherapy clinic.

She walked like a vertical pendulum with the bob on the top!

A Tin soldier's walk might look more fluid and free.

Her face was screwed up as if in severe pain.

Pain is supposed to disappear since the painful body part has been replaced by a foreign object.

When I spoke to her, she complained that her knees do not bend at all!

So knee surgery is not a major miracle which removes all the pain and make people walk freely.

The artificial knee must be trained to bend or lock firmly depending on what we want to do.

My dad used to tell me often,"Any day God given knees are superior to man made knees.

Do not even think of knee surgery unless you are unable to take even one step (God forbid it)!"

Hospitals have their targets to reach

Patients have money to blow.

Knee surgery is becoming a status symbol I am afraid. :(

 
One of my uncles keeps advising me to go for knee replacement.

He himself has got one knee operated upon though both his knees are worn out equally.

He is not able to walk freely even after the surgery and yet he advises the others to get operated.

"Vaal aRuntha nariyin kathai polave illai"??? :rolleyes:

P.S:

A fox lost his tail in an accident but would not admit it.

He claimed that he could see the stars during daytime after he sacrificed his tail.

Another gullible fox also got his tail cut but could not see the stars in daytime!

Who can ever see the stars in broad day light?

Ashamed that he might be made fun of, they claimed that he too could see the stars in daytime!:lie:

Words in bold confused me for a second!! :confused:

''Two Orpadis are living as my neighbours'', would have been more clear! ;)

Oh Boy! Am I happy my orpadis do not live very close to my place!

"KaNdaal paaichal! :scared:
kaaNaavittaal Kaaichal!' :ohwell:

Foot note:
The popular phrase "Orpadik kaaichal!" :rant:

P.S.
The widowed mother (90 + OR minus ) of the 70 (minus) is living with her.
So it is three old widows living in two flats!

The 80 (minus) has a servant during day time and another during the night time.
Both are dubious characters since the day time servant has to earn her living since she too is a widow. The night time servant is seen doing odd jobs and/ or collecting thorny firewood during the day time.

This mami really has guts to trust keep such people in her house!
 
Jealosy among women is unavoidable - even among female Goddesses.

Why else do we have movies like Saraswathi sabadam and songs like "Kalviyaa selvamaa veeramaa?"

The sibling rivalry among sisters is balanced by their love in most cases.

But there is no love among co sister-in-laws!

Since the balancing factor is absent their rivralry is unmitigated and unmistakable.

The difference in status/ job/ salary of the brothers those ladies have married

acts a catalyst in increasing the invisible kaaichal anf the very visible paaichal!

God save these women from one another! :amen:
 
Wow! I am really blessed. One of my Orpadis like me for my singing and other virtues; another likes because I extend

my helping hand to her whenever she needs; another like me just because I am ME!! :becky:
