1   Aravindan Neelakantan is a learned person but he ( as read his books
and articles)  I used to feel, as other authors of India, to sell all over
the world, he eulogised and compared west and Greek culture, and he cannot
sell anything in India. I say again and again that, all those
FOREIGNERS WHO VISITED INDIA, SAW THE INDIAN TEMPLE, ATE OUR MASALA DOSA,
WORE THE KANCHIPURAM SILKS ; BUT THE DAY THEY ARE BACK, NOT EVEN FOR A DAY,
THEY VISIT OUR TEMPLES THERE ; EVEN A DAY EAT DOSA AT SARVAN BHAVAN OR AMMA
RESTAURANT THERE; ( CLINTON VISITED ONLY ONCE THE AMMA ) ; NEVER WEAR ANY
KANCHIPURAM SILK; OR QUOTE ANY TEXT FROM HERE. Even in their books they
stop with Greece as last ,not india; if so why should A.N.  should write
elaborately about greek goddess and thanks giving day , without
writing many charities, working in India, who are begging and taking the
wasted food from Restaurant and kalyana mandapam, but pass off?. Swarajya
is now a changed magazine unlike the Rajaji period.
 2      We never utter B G 4 24 brahmarpanam while doing pariseshanam.
Brahmarpanam is advaitham. Incidentally Sri Ramanujar did not elaborate on
this. All are brahmam. Nishkamya karma. Seeing in all HIM and in HiM all.
Of Course we always say: ANNADHATHA SUKI BHAVA; it means Brahmam in vedic;
siva in saivam; vishnu in vaishnavam; shakti in shaktam; so on and so
forth. Shakambari is a vegetarian application. It is read also as Sa +
eakambari= shakti is the only one as Ekambaraar.  It is also interpreted as
SA- tranquility ekambari; and consort of ekambara.
3     The people today who are bragging we are not hindus but saivam and
Vaishnavam , speak out of context.  They are saying ONDRE KULAM ORUVANE
DEVAM; but we say mom Ekam; Brahmam arose in Sanskrit and if so oruvane
devan , is brahmam. Hindu did not exist in the Chola dynasty, words of
truth or wisdom of Kamala hassen. Hindu word was not there even when great
great father was there in 1600 AD.   Islam said SINDU. The British coined
HINDU. In 1947 Tamil nadu was not there as it was coined by present c m's
father. If Vedic is despised and HINDU was the overlapped word of the Veda,
then where was Siva and Daksha yagnam? In Tamil Nadu? Adishankara connected
the six kinds of worship which had saivam and vainavam and shaktam also.
Devi is one pattern of worship founded as regulated By Adi Shankaraa as a
speciality. However devi stiti , vak stuti were all there in Rig Vedam
itself. Aravind Neelakantan like people give food for ignorants to
interpret wildly as the Stalin crew does. Here many writers want to sell
their books; so they write in international level comparison. West also
wants to sell internationally, so they do not include the Indian market.
When we are writing about Food lets do about India. If we are talking about
wasting food, let's do it according to Vedas and organisations doing
charitable activities in distributing those food.
4       The "ARANYANI" IS IN lALITHA SAHASRANAMA FROM RIG VEDAM 19.146  3
AS "उत गाव इवादन्त्युत वेश्मेव दर्श्यते |उतो अरण्यानिःसायं शकटीरिव सर्जति ||uta
ghāva ivādantyuta veśmeva dṛśyate | uto araṇyāniḥsāyaṃ śakaṭīriva sarjati ||“It
is as if cows are grazing, and it looks like a dwelling, and Aranyāni at
eventide, indeed, dismissed the carts.” aRANYANI IS USED AS FOREST AND
LATER SHAKTI WAS GIVEN THAT NAME; BUT mR nEELAKANTAN DID NOT BRING IT IN.
DIANA OF EPHESUS IN GREECE CAME LONG AFTER 1000 bce AND rv LONG AGO; AND
DIANA IS ARANYANI?.
5  CHAD FRISHMANN AND GREENHOUSE EFFECT LOST , WAS DIRECTED IN THROWING
AWAY THE NON VEGETARIAN FOOD ALL OVER THE EARTH CAUSING PROBLEM OF WRONG
GASES PRODUCTIONS SPOILING THE EARTH; AND WHERE SHAKAMBARI STEP IN?. VEG
FOOD CANNOT CAUSE ANY GAS AS THAT OF THE OTHER. WASTAGE OF FOOD IS A CRIME.
Rig vedam says, " Rig Veda 10.117.6  मोघमन्नं विन्दते अप्रचेताः सत्यं
ब्रवीमि वध इत्स तस्य । नार्यमणं पुष्यति नो सखायं केवलाघो भवति केवलादी ॥mogham
annaṃ vindate apracetāḥ satyam bravīmi vadha it sa tasya | nāryamaṇam
puṣyati no sakhāyaṃ kevalāgho bhavati kevalādī ||:“The inhospitable man
acquires food in vain. I speak the truth-- it verily is his death. He
cherishes not Aryaman nor a friend; he who eats alone is nothing but a
sinner.”  Food is distributed and not thrown out as a waste. And vegetarian
food does not cause any threat to green house effect as cycle rain in Rig
vedam says that that which goes from earth , causing water aas gas to sky,
is back as Rain causing the food grow which enters the semen for
procreations and all ultimately goes back to the earth. it does not cause
any pollution. The vedas recite that food is the food for the food. AND SO
WEST REPORT DOES NOT FIT IN HERE EXCEPT THE NON VEGETARIANS SYSTEM THAT
MIGHT INVOKE GASES OF POLLUTION TO THE EARTH.
