Pranam Q2 Erroneous and assumed. Only a professional can absorb so easily without long explanations from the IAS. Can jump to the next step because of knowledge. Not granting a post as minister is politics of seniority. Q3 Nothing will go wrong. Balance of power, nature takes care. Why so many sudden deaths now. ? But I used to joke, if everyone started eating vegetarian, my food would cost more due to the lack of production and demand. Q4 Topmost level as a 12 year old I had taken in sombu water from the well from its brim, during the rainy season, while washing my teeth at the backyard. And I had also seen in the 1980s water at 350 feet taking 10 to 12 minutes for a bucket to fill, get inside thro rattinam and pull out. Q5 No one would use their entire education at all; and 90% do not use any of what they read in their university. Q6 One is certainly air locked and released only, varying the pressure. Q7 Being one of the five elements our body is made of. Air is compulsory and agni is satiated. Q8 It depends on the character of the landlord and our friendship. Q10 All of us will be sucked out Q13 Normally many diviners are fraud; they see the neighbor spot and choose the line close to it in your compound wall; so that sooner or later both become bleak and run around for further investments. Have a nice day KR IRS 16721
