LEFT HANDED 

A look in toleft hand more use by people.

There are somedrawbacks for left handed people. Whatever the culture has 
developed, a personserving food with left hand is least appreciated. At the 
same time, whilefamily sitting together and right hand is used for eating, left 
hand is used byany member to take food item for himself or to serve to anybody 
near.  It can be either in floor or on dining table. Probablyon account of this 
during feasts in a family a few serve others and they areserved by those who 
finished meals.

Just think ofa person serving any food item with left hand in a feast. It is 
annoying.  If he works in a kitchen and using left handeasily it is not noted 
by many. 

Consider anoccasion of srardha. Though both hands are used during the function, 
among Brahminsserving by a lady left handed is least preferred. Just think of 
the kartha’swife is left handed… 

But there arecertain fields where left hand and right hand are used together as 
in a sewingmachine. No person gets annoyed at a tailor till he/she stitch an 
item usingboth hands. But after stitching if he or she pack and give it with 
left hand? 

A busconductor cannot issue tickets to passengers without using both hands. 

Just think ofan occasion of giving wedding invitation or giving compliments 
using left hand.I could not control my laugh of thinking about a sasthrikal 
left handed. Mostlyhe will keep an assistant with right handed to accomplish 
things. 

For preparingpayasam the grated coconut is ground  and made to   the size of a 
medium ball by using bothhands for squeezing if coconut milk from supermarket 
is not used. But in thenormal manual grater the halved coconut is held by both 
hands. If at all withmechanical and electrical graters, left hand is used for 
holding and right handis used to adjust the position of plate etc. The 
electrical equipment isdesigned for holding halved coconut with left hand.   If 
Iam correct just like the LPG stove, in which gas tube can be connected 
toeither left side or right side, the change is not implemented in the 
electricalgrater. At one time LPG stoves came with gas tube connection in the 
centre. 

The bestmethod for squeezing ground  coconut flour is holding the ground  
coconut ballwith both hands. 

I recollectthe old story of a person took up quarrel with a coconut scrapping 
person. Asthe quarrel grew, the coconut scrapping person said- I will blow you 
with thecoconut scrapper, mostly using both hands to blow. 

For drawing linesin a paper to hold the ruler /scale with one hand and 
pencil/pen with otherhand.  After putting a letter in a cover,paste   is 
applied with gum using bothhands pasted using both hands. Using a single hand 
will not be perfect. 

For using acrowbar, a powrah or an axe both the hands are required. But for 
using a knifeto cut a small tree branch, force is required in one hand. Many 
will hold thesecond hand for holding the branch as a practice.  Though scissors 
and saucepans are designed forright handed people, left handed also use, 
scissors with lesser difficulty, andsauce pan with more difficulty, Sauce pan 
cannot be hold and liquid contents transferredto another without spilling using 
left hand by the left handed people. 

There arepeople who use left hand more active for writing etc. If at all the 
teachers insistthem in child hood for writing using right hand, they would find 
it difficult. Theycontinue writing with left hand, though the documents are 
prepared for writingwith right hand.  In short with peoplewho are right handed 
it will be more active. Similarly with left handed people.

A person isright handed or left handed can normally observed from the way they 
hold abrief case, a bag, an umbrella , a walking stick or mobile phone.
