ANSWER PAPER

1. Does one enjoy one's birth or death?

A. One does not enjoy one’s birth or death because both take place beyond one’s notice or awareness. In the cases of saints that can foresee their future, it may be different. Perhaps they may enjoy their known death on the way for they are leaving one form of their spiritual journey to start another or mingle with the supreme soul.

2. Is human life comedy or tragedy?

A. Human life is essentially a tragedy. An elevated soul takes a series of human births to undergo the pains and the joys attached to that particular soul in its long journey. Every human being suffers once or more times during one’s journey. We can hardly find many that never cry or regret anything. If you consider the lives of celebrities, great achievers and ordinary human beings in different parts of the world, what you find is that there are about 95% of tragedy cases related to all. Because human life is basically a storehouse of tragedy, we try to fill it with happiness and relieve injecting comedy into it in our known and affordable ways. There are laughing clubs here and there but not crying clubs because we need not particularly practice any art or sport to generate pain and tears in our body. It is inherent.

3. How many young Indians can understand and practice love without adding sex to it?

A. I believe that only one percent young Indians can understand and practice love without adding sex to it because basic instincts, familial, societal, and cultural factors make one find the creatures of the opposite gender very attractive and approachable by hook or crook. We call it teenage and inherent lust. From the age a boy or the girl recognizes the difference between him and her, he or she falls prey to the temptations of the bodily instincts. If you check the meanings of the word love in an English dictionary, sex is added to it in many instances. Those practicing unconditional love and deep into spiritual orientation of lives can, to some extent, feel and enjoy love without attributing the qualities of sex to it but they are countable in every country. A young saint might preach virtues following his cult but we can’t scan his brain to ascertain whether he is experiencing the thoughts of sex or not when talking about love and so it is very difficult for a person to think of love without sex, particularly in the present generation of high number of sinners and criminals. The present young Indians are exposed to many sex related content in different formats. Such environment makes them more disturbed and perverted inside though they pose differently outside. Young Indian girls do not express their inner thoughts clearly in connection to love and sex and so they are better performers and liars than boys. Nature lovers, dreamers and visionaries with larger goals meant for the benefit and comfort of many across the world can receive and express ideal love toward others without adding sex to it, to some extent. Mother Teresa is one of such great personalities of the world.

4. Is there democracy in India today?

A. There is no democracy in India today. The Congress party, being a curse to this nation, tried its best to kill democracy in this nation since 1948. Jawaharlal Nehru retained democracy in this nation to a great extent. Thereafter egoistic, corrupt and dictatorial idiots and rogues entered the Indian politics and damaged the roots of democracy in this nation day by day. Today this nation is in the hands of businessmen, rapists, sadists, criminals, dictators, cheaters, slaves, thieves and robbers. Check the credentials and characteristics of our elected rogues sitting in the state and central legislatures today, except 10% of them who do not form part of this “rogues forum” in public places. They think and work for earning more money, fame and sexual enjoyments exploiting the public money and natural resources in this nation. Judiciary is like a dead body with partly alive soul in this nation. If we shout a thousand times, it moves a little for a few seconds and again goes asleep. Since our politics is not composed of good people thinking and working for the common and betterment of this nation in all the sectors, we must believe that we are living in a fools’ paradise wherein we dream that we are living in a democratic nation. You can find the worst candidates working for a political party today in the Congress party today. An intellectual and idealist like Manmohan is also promoting Rahul Gandhi as our next prime minister and it shows the death of democracy in this nation. Are there no better intellectuals, idealists and visionaries in this nation that can work better than Rahul Gandhi to develop this nation? Those working for the Congress party believe that God sent Jawaharlal Nehru and his family members only to rule this nation and such slaves of a family-focused political party are worse than a pimp or a prostitute. Familial politics is the sign of death of democracy in a nation and our present Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is promoting Rahul Gandhi to continue that trend obeying the orders of his big boss leading the Congress party today. I do not think that BJP or other national or local political parties in this nation are here to bring democracy into this nation but to exploit this nation and these people on their own in their known ways. Beyond all this, what is pitiable in this nation is that uneducated and illiterate rogues decide the journey of democracy in this nation and the educated and the awaken watch the dying scenes of democracy as helpless or careless spectators sitting in their comfortable places in the distance. Every good and awaken Indian must regret these trends and ensure that he or she is not promoting this demoralized rule in this nation if they can’t stop such ugly trends on their own immediately. Today, fools and criminals are ruling us and making such policies and laws which make us more perverted and blinded sheep and lunatics in the process. This leads to a great revolution one day and the common people kill these public criminals publicly that day without others’ motivation or involvement.

5. Are girls more trustworthy in India or boys?

A. Boys are more trustworthy in India because they have been living liberal and carefree lives for ages without many restrictions upon them by their parents or the rulers. They speak truths in most of the cases and try to be clear to the other party. Indian girls, being suppressed for ages by men and their own race, and being exploited in every possible way by many, have stopped to believe in other girls or boys. If a boy takes ten days’ time to believe in an unfamiliar girl and fall in love with her honestly and decently, a girl takes 100 days’ time. Many educated and rich girls think like prostitutes in this nation in their relations toward boys and men. Their primary question would be, while taking time to believe in a boy or man, “What is harm to me due to this fellow or how much do I benefit from his association in the short or long run due to my relationship with him?” A male software engineer from an Indian city earning about one lac rupees a month also does not mind marrying a poor and beautiful girl from a village also but such a female software engineer plans to marry a businessman or celebrity that can give her more money and comfort later. Many educated and rich Indian girls did not lose their slavish and pervert mentality even to this date in India, though there are some exceptions. A girl beautifies herself more than a boy does for himself. A girl’s basic instinct in India is to be admired by many on the roads but not to be loved or touched by anybody that does not suit her internal expectations or dreams. I observed such mean and damaged mentality in many girls I came across. Those girls that never understand good boys fast can never enjoy their lives and those boys that can never be loved or admired by good girls can never become good citizens or individuals in this nation. Girls are inspiration to boys and for proofs you can check our literature in books and films. There are millions of verses and lyrics admiring the beauty and qualities of girls and women but how many girls and women did creative works appreciating their lovers or admirers? I would give great marks only to a middle-class Indian home maker that spends most part of her life to serve her children and husband, until she dies, without expecting anything from them. Such an Indian woman is greater than our gods and goddesses. Rest of the Indian girls today, that talk nonsense in the name of feminism and equal rights with men, are misguiding their race in every possible way. No Indian girl must admire a beauty like Aiswarya Rai because she achieved such status of fame doing much that an Indian woman must not do in the public places. Kasturba Gandhi must be the role model to our girls today but how many Indian girls today know about this great Indian woman? Our educated Indian girls think like prostitutes and uneducated and helpless girls think like born parasites. I saw very few girls with appreciable characters or achievements in comparison to boys and men. Indian girls and women take about 100 years to reach the mental growth of many Indian boys and men. I pity this trend. Time settles many burning issues in a cool manner.

6. When nature and one's fate dictate what one should do, what should one's mind do?

A. One’s life is not in one’s control. The journey of a living being depends on the records of that particular person’s soul, which we call Karma in Hinduism. We came into this world with a pre-programmed and automated spiritual schedule which we must not break at our discretion committing suicide by mistake. Since we have to undergo the burden of sins our Karma has with it, we need to follow it without serious questions or complaints about it. However, strong will power and our related endeavor to lead our lives honestly, humanly and kindly help us receive the blessings of our gods and goddesses, invisible entities to whom we attributed great qualities for ages. Thus we can feel less pain while undergoing our Karma’s effects. Spiritual guides help us find the path toward God or simple ways to lead our lives happily experiencing the dictates of Karma on the way. One’s mind thinks in tune to one’s Karma. The locomotive drivers have to follow the signals ahead and if there are faults in the tracks, the train derails and they can’t avoid it. They play nominal roles to drive the trains safely only when the tracks and the signals are in perfect conditions. Similarly, one has very little to do to better or worsen one’s life beyond one’s Karma. This is why no scientist or spiritualist or social reformer could ever reveal a secret to make this world beautiful and every creature living in it always happy. Every creature is responsible to its own destiny.

7. How much can one depend on theories and beliefs based on dreams humans have?

A. One must use one’s dreams to be happy at one’s level as long as they are inspiring and delightful. Thinking much on theories and beliefs related to dreams makes one a useless and unproductive dreamer. Other kinds of dreams, goals as we may call, are important for every good and capable human being. To become a scientist and discover something beneficial to the humanity and to serve the society humbly and unknowingly are examples of such dreams. Every great or small achievement is initially a small or big dream. However, I strongly disapprove the writings and speeches of A P J Abdul Kalam addressing children and young Indians in this nation today because this nation is a nasty and stinking dustbin polluted in every possible way by criminals and rogues in this nation. He could not transform even a single rogue in the Indian politics from a loafer and robber to a thinker and achiever, during his five years of tenure as the president of this nation. He remained a silent, decent and honorary actor like many of his predecessors. His ideals and thoughts meant for the Indian children and youth do nothing good for them now or later because he is teaching them virtues to face criminals and sinners in this nation. This nation develops only when every politician, businessman, judge and family head or any other Indian that thinks and acts like a thief, robber and rapist is killed secretly or publicly by somebody or some group. Corrupt and unethical people do not change on their own and so they must be killed publicly or privately. Kalam’s thoughts, visions and dreams are applicable and useful in a nation where everybody thinks and works like Plato or Vivekananda. He was made a big celebrity considering his robust speeches and books addressing innocent children in this nation and he does not deserve such reputation. He is basically a good scientist, great patriot of this nation and an idealist without enough boldness to talk about the rogues in this nation and the filth they are promoting and generating in this nation. Our children and youth must not understand his dreams without understanding Indians, Indian history and basic human psychology. A good child to a pervert set of parents, who sleep with other partners every night before him, can rarely appreciate and practice virtues discussed in Bhagawad Gita but when an external force kills that couple and takes that child to an shelter of dreamers and achievers can work wonders later. Great achievements are not possible in a highly polluted environment. Kalam talks about great achievements in a highly spoiled environment like India and his visions or dreams would never get realized. We can understand it better when we read Indian history and Indian mentality. Innocent Indians like me and others must consult historians like Ramachandra Guha to be educated first about Indians and India. Thereafter we can think of dreams and their realization in the long run or walk. Unfortunately, this admirable historian of India, developed passion for cricket and I believe he wrote books also on it, a nasty game plaguing the lives of millions of Indians today. Cricket is a fatal infection in this nation and it kills the creativity, intelligence and vision of Indians in this nation. No dreamer, intellectual or achiever in this nation has to support or encourage cricket in this nation directly or indirectly.

8. Does education make one's life happier and peaceful or not?

A. Education means awakening ourselves from ignorance to enlightenment and from fear to boldness and from slavery to self-reliance. It is to understand others better and co-exist with them in a harmonious and mutually beneficial and delightful manner as far as we can manage. Our happiness or peace depends on what we learnt or inherited from our parents or others, what we liked out of it, what we practiced out of what we liked and how others understood or misunderstood it at a given point of time. Any education that promotes kindness and love for the helpless, the innocent and the ignorant; instills the notions of patriotism for the place and people wherever we are living and encourages to live in a way that is comfortable and delightful to all is good for all and it helps us enjoy happiness and peace. Any education that teaches one on how to understand and practice everything in terms of profit and loss but not good or bad makes an ugly, unhappy and restless family, society and nation. Unfortunately this is what is happening in many parts of the world today. Humans are interested in only one question to do many things in their lives today, “How do I benefit if I do it now or later?” It means we all became businessmen in the the core of our hearts and mindsets. Let’s take the perspective of a beautiful, educated and rich Indian girl looking for a boy to marry today in India. Her question would be, “How much does he earn and how can he keep me happy always after our marriage without much work to me at home or outside during our married lives?” In fact, for any good Indian girl or her parents, the right question must be, “How good is he as a human being and how can his true character and virtues keep me/my daughter balanced in my/her life after our/their marriage while we/they would be sharing our/their responsibilities, joys and tribulations equally as two decent and honest lovers even after marriage?”. Hope you understood by now why we are not happy in India today. We must be educated to be good Indians first who can differentiate between good and bad and live as good citizens and individuals and not as wise businessmen who always think and act from the perspective of profit and loss. Dowry, domestic violence, feminism and male chauvinism must be replaced with pure love and admiration for the other creature for what she represents honestly, domestic balance of powers and responsibilities with mutual discussion and acceptance out of love for each other, humanism that loves all without any bias, unconditional or ideal love. Education plays a little role only in keeping us happy and peaceful until we change our mindsets and lifestyles. We must live with realities than formalities in our personal and professional lives. We must find out solutions to every problem we have instead of discussing them for ages in media and other discussion groups at various levels in our societies and nations.

9. Why do majority of humans spend their time and money on those they like?

A. Because many human beings are basically selfish and narrow-minded. They can’t think beyond their family members and native social issues. Every Indian that is eating good food, wearing comfortable and good clothes at his level and living in a moderately considerable shelter in a city, town or village today is a sinner and criminal because he left millions of poor and helpless Indians in those environments and circumstances where they are not enjoying the facilities as he is enjoying. It means we are closing our eyes when we come across a beggar or a slum and enjoying ourselves in a cinema or night club spending the money we earned in such ways and means which are unknown or unaffordable to those living in ugly and highly polluted places among us in our cities, towns and villages. When every good Indian spends some of his time or money to think and do something for those helpless and forsaken people in this nation, we can see a great India soon. Others do not develop our nation or lots but ourselves. Americans developed the US exploiting the African people in the earlier times and every criminal and sinner from other ugly and underdeveloped nations today is migrating to stay or live in this nation for some time or forever. This is what we call escapism. Indians are the worst rogues in this respect, our politicians and policy makers in particular. Indians are great liars, fraudsters, debauchers, escapists and actors.

10. What are the main reasons for chaos and unrest in the world?

A. I would like to answer this in the following way:

1. Money and powers being in the hands of those who exploit others for their benefits and comforts in a family, society or nation.

2. Every developed nation trying to keep the poor states poor always directly or indirectly taking such measures dishonestly, thinking that others don’t know it.

3. Fundamentalists from some religions blindly believing that they can change this world into a heaven resorting to hellish means of terrorism and mass destruction.

4. Intellectuals, visionaries and dreamers remaining silent and helpless being unable to fight with or reform the criminals, terrorists and internal thieves and robbers in all the fields.

5. Lack of efficient established systems and mechanisms to trace and punish the bad immediately and encourage and appreciate the good and the noble wherever they are.

6. Doing such things on a big scale which damage the beauty and integrity of the earth planet which eventually retaliates against all through natural calamities.

7. Thinking about and doing such things which benefit a few only instead of planning and working for larger goals and collective happiness and harmony always.

8. Corruption and filth in many religions and faiths being followed in many regions of the world claming themselves as the saviors and guides of the people living there.
