CULTURAL QA 07-2023-11 by G by passed but the rest error prone as he admits
are censored -----KR    IRS     11 7 23

Q1           What will happen if I cannot pay a BSNL broadband bill on time?

KR         Wow wonderful that only BSNL is doing; not others? all of us who
did not know this were subscribing to BSNL; switch loyalty? There is a word
“if defaulted”; and only BSNL uses it Great.

Q2           What good ideas were not taken forward?

KR         Probably reported in some web sites and written by someone in
the media and so it is easier to copy and paste, even though extolled or
evinced interest as an Indian; an Indian or many Indians, who may not even
know what Heineken is. As 7 up herein India, in the USA and some west parts
is Heineken. What is being stated here is a marketing strategy succeeded or
failed Full stop. How did G deduce that it is a good idea? Only because it
was a bad idea it failed; and the storage problems, infected cans after
drinking, reusability might be dangerous thoughts, so many factors are only
good. Cavin care of TN and India started from home shampoo bottles; then
and even today, Ponds, Hallow, TATAs etc shampoos are only ruling the
nation. Hence Cavinkare found it difficult to break through. Then a
marketing idea struck him; sachet, small pockets; people like daily wage
earners, can buy easily and so Cavin market expanded. He could capture some
market. But the whales, released the sachet of their product; and there
ended high market of expansion and switched to feminine makeup products.
Will you say a good idea failed; or the good idea was widespread
thereafter?

Q3           What are some lesser-known stories of Lord Vishnu?

KR           Bakta salabega a lesser-known fact sir?  So many knew it; and
found bloggers all over the net; and even you have passed comments in
2020in one blog; if so, framing the question is wrong not the story of
Fatima beevi and Sala Bega. I appreciate the product. God representing the
bhaktas stories found in our bhakti is described. Jagannatha, Parameswaran,
Shakti, Skandan, Ganapati so many played games with their devotees. You
could have taken his bhajans.

Q4           What are some great examples of coincidence?

KR       2 points; 1 criminal mind escapes normal deaths but gets only
hanged; 2   Crime cannot be hidden from the Justice.  And CRIME AND
PUNISHMENT ARE SO ASSURED. Yet people like XYZ do all kinds of abuses
knowing fully well.

Q5           What are the benefits of visiting Tirupati Balaji temple?

KR        Benefits? Any worship including human prostration will have
benefits only. Why insult Perumal of TTD? Kamya karya benefits have no
value.

Q7           What was the mysterious discovery that still has no
explanation?

KR        Enda sare why the scientists are baffled you say; are they not
fossils to find out? is this the only mass skeleton found on the earth? and
that too in the freezing point?  Recent mummy you wrote as frozen and the
scientists are not baffled? Himalaya means baffling Italy means there is no
surprise?

     Truth:   Later, after forensic analysis in 2004, the best theory was
that a group of Indian pilgrims, both men and women, assisted by local
porters from the region, were struck by giant hail at Roopkund in a single
event in the 9th Century, so concluded from the perimortem injuries on the
skulls  [That is why I say, don’t be carrie away by versions of people like
you check facts.

         The *new study*
<https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-019-11357-9> found that the 38
skeletons belonged to three genetically distinct groups and were deposited
at the lake during multiple events over a 1,000 year period. There was a
South Asian group, predictably, whose bones were deposited between the 7th
and 10th Centuries in multiple events. The team also found a new group of
individuals of eastern Mediterranean ancestry originating in the island of
Crete, who died in the 19th Century in a single event. And there was one
sample that had South-East Asian origin, also from the 19th Century.
Surprised by this anomalous finding, the team then did a dietary analysis
to see if it supported the results of DNA analysis, and it did.

"At a site like Roopkund where the context is highly disturbed and the
possibilities of full-scale excavations are low, using aDNA [Ancient DNA]
provides us with direct information about the genetic ancestry of these
individuals," said Ayushi Nayak from *Max Planck Institute for the Science
of Human History* <https://www.shh.mpg.de/en>. "Our 2019 paper was able to
add new kinds of data through different biomolecular methods.

NB: That is why you want all need not be replied, else you untruth gets
exposed every day?

Q8           What can we learn from Sudha Murthy?

KR         OK Sudha Murthy and Narayana Murthy Sujatha, Sivaji Gansa are
all great. But have you not learned anything from your mother, Father,
brothers, sisters, children and wife and your office? Let’s appreciate but
dot eulogise; remember that she was unknown till they crossed the bridge
and became Parents-in-law of PN of England. But your surroundings are the
best to learn.

Q9           What are some of the best life hacks that you learned from
your parents?

KR           Life hack is a valuable lesson but ……..

A9           Gurmeet Bishnoi, Lives in Berlin (2023–present) Updated 1y

My grandparents gave birth to 8 sons and 2 daughters which divided property
into 10 parts. But my parents gave birth to two only.

Life hack: Don't give birth to lot of kids. It affects your wealth and
their future.

KR        Is this the life hack? In the USA Americans want more children;
some nations like Sweden want more children; in India Muslims beget more
children; and according to your Siddantha if there is no wealth more
children can be born? and if the future is settled, a lot of births are
welcome? Bundle of contradictions. And can you beget 12 children or no
children? Can you do that as you like it? Is it not a shame that you care
more for money only? Is it not greed that kills other siblings? Illicit
gratification and it is not a life hack but your paranoid mind is hacking.
History states loot of children where the end product was seated high and
the rest in top positions when the parents were ordinary people. You are
not doing anything and you are incapable of doing anything.

Once my mom caught me doing something wrong but she didn't say anything and
never discussed this.

Life hack : Not every time is anger the solution. After that I never got
caught because I took more precautions.

KR   That has started hiding from the truth as a misbehaved child? So
becoming a bad boy is a life hack?

My dad could get high class government job because in his time he studied
lot but due to some political issue he didn't get. Now he runs a school and
did well.

Life hack : Don't stop if you don't get what you deserve. Keep trying, keep
hardworking you would get better.

My note- While working as a highschool assistant in Trikkariyur, I got
selected as a clerk in Madras CTO. There was an inspector of post offices
having his office in the same lodge I was staying.He advised me the
prospects of joining  in central government, higher salary, pension
benefit, guarantee of job etc. I took his advice and joined as clerk. The
advice of the senior staff, I applied for Phone inspector, selected. It was
in just 9months. At that time I applied for ESP(Junior Engineer), got
selected with in 6 months. Gradually promoted as SG ESP, AE, DE and finally
Asst General Manager. I followed - Keep trying, keep hardworking you would
get better.

KR          Is it not the thing everyone does and gets? All access will get
promoted, because that is the limitation of what they deserve!   Only when
a chaiwala becomes a PM is life hack. A peon retiring as chairman is a life
hack. Deserving means high and low, good and bad.

 My mom never gets angry, never backbites like other ladies and she is very
chilled lady. That's why no one hates her.

Life hack : Remain chilled, don't say bad about anyone and keep helping
others. You would get immense love.

KR      compromised knowledge; at the crossroads; if scolding there is life
hack; if not also there is a life hack; so life hack is Parkinson’s law of
level water according to the vessel.

My dad did arrange marriage and it has been 25 years. Still everyday after
coming from school, my dad helps my mom in household work happily.

Life hack : Love can be in arrange marriage also. All we need is to support
our partner and behave lovely.

KR          One member talks ill of a woman; and he is well off he says; he
also adds it is sastra advocating thus. Is there love there also or not;
life hack must reveal the truth only on one side. Which is correct?

Q10         What few know about Albert Einstein?

A10         RI Shohag,9h

 Albert Einstein and Mileva Marić met in 1896. They entered the Polytechnic
University of Zurich, Switzerland, in the class of physics and mathematics.
There were also three other students – Marić was the only female.

>From the start, Albert and Mileva became inseparable. They studied together
and, in the summer, exchanged passionate correspondence. In 1900, Einstein
risked a poem for crush. Then he sent her a sketch of her foot so she could
knit him a pair of socks. Cute, isn't it?

But the passion was not eternal. Here is a list compiled by the German
physicist in 1914 directed at Mileva (the two were already married at the
time):

"CONDITIONS

A. It is up to you to ensure that:

My clothes are always clean and in order;

I receive my three meals normally in my rooms ;

That my room and office are always well-kept and, above all, that my desk
is used only by me .

B. You will refrain from any personal relations with me unless absolutely
necessary for social reasons. Above all, you will give up:

my company at home;    go out or travel with me.

C. You will observe the following points in your dealings with me:

He will not expect any intimacy from me, nor will he scold me in any way;

He will stop talking to me when i ask him to;

You will leave my room or my office immediately and without objection when
i ask you to.

D. You will undertake not to belittle me, in word or deed, in front of our
children.”



The list was one of several Einstein documents found in 1986, 31 years
after the scientist's death (the above translation came from the book
Extraordinary Lists, by Shaun Usher). The letters were stored in a bank
vault in Berkeley, USA, and went up for auction in the following decade.
These records revealed unprecedented information about Einstein's academic
and, above all, private life.

KR         That is why I say verify before printing or else you will be
exposed; maybe for people wearing masks of villainy, that part of villainy
alone appealed.

    I have proof of Einstein’s other side of life as a villain in National
Geographic; Can you read it?

      “*For The Physicist, Monogamy Was A "Bitter Fruit"*

*As he detailed in his letters, Einstein over the years developed a
complicated view of male-female relationships.*

In a June 1953 letter, Albert Einstein tried to console a female friend who
had discovered that her husband was having an affair, by advising her that
she should resist taking it personally. Cheating, he explained, was the
norm among humans.

“I AM SURE YOU KNOW THAT MOST MEN (AS WELL AS QUITE A NUMBER OF WOMEN) ARE
NOT MONOGAMOUSLY ENDOWED BY NATURE."

“I am sure you know that most men (as well as quite a number of women) are
not monogamously endowed by nature,” he wrote, according to a translation
from the original German published decades later. “Nature will come through
even stronger if convention and circumstances are putting resistances in
the way of the individual.”

It was a subject that the great physicist knew something about from
personal experience. Einstein himself had been unfaithful to his first
wife, Mileva Maric, and eventually left her to marry his mistress, Elsa
Einstein, who was also his cousin. After divorcing Mileva and marrying
Elsa, he soon resumed having dalliances with numerous other women as well.

"You have to keep in mind that in Europe at the time, for a pursued,
charismatic man, his behavior wasn't so unusual," Harvard physicist and
science historian Gerald Holton told Discover magazine in 2006.
What was a bit more extraordinary, though, was Einstein’s frankness about
his wandering attentions, and his deft construction of a nuanced moral code
into which infidelity could fit comfortably. As he detailed in his letters,
Einstein over the years had developed a complicated view of male-female
relationships.

        *Albert Einstein was many things, but monogamous was not one of
them*.

Einstein wasn’t that fond of matrimony to begin with. He and his first wife
Mileva had lived together and conceived a child before their marriage. As
Einstein biographer Walter Isaacson notes, after the couple separated,
Einstein wasn’t in any rush to legally finalize their split so that he
could marry Elsa, his lover, either. As he wrote in a 1915 letter: “The
attempts to force me into marriage come from my cousin’s parents and is
mainly attributable to vanity, though moral prejudice, which is still very
much alive in the old generation, plays a part.”
Eventually, Einstein did relent, and obtained a divorce from Mileva so that
he could say the vows with his cousin. According to Isaacson, Einstein told
his soon-to-be ex-wife that he was concerned that the reputation of Elsa’s
two grown daughters would be harmed by gossip about their mother’s
relationship with Einstein.

“ONE SHOULD DO WHAT ONE ENJOYS, AND WON’T HARM ANYONE ELSE.”

Instead, Einstein seemed to prefer what we would call today free love.

After marrying Elsa, he started a passionate affair with his secretary,
Betty Neumann, and in letters, even fantasized about having her live with
him and Elsa in a big house. (When his lover dismissed the idea, he
admitted that she had more appreciation “for the difficulties of triangular
geometry than I.”)

In a letter that Einstein wrote to Elsa, who’d discovered that he’d had a
fling with one of her friends, Berlin socialite Ethel Michanowski, Einstein
explained that “one should do what one enjoys, and won’t harm anyone else.”

      Einstein simply saw his flings as non-serious affairs that didn’t
interfere with his feelings for his spouse. “Out of all the women, I am in
fact attached only to Mrs. L. who is absolutely harmless and decent, and
even with this there is no danger to the divine world order,” he wrote in a
letter in the 1930s to his second wife Elsa’s daughter Margot, whom he
relied upon to keep Elsa from becoming angry about it all. (According to
biographer Isaacson, “Mrs. L” was an Austrian woman, Margarete Lebach, with
whom Einstein had an extramarital affair.)

Moreover, Einstein told his friend whose husband was unfaithful that people
had a natural desire to have affairs, and it didn’t do any good for them to
resist the urge to do so. When a man forces himself to remain monogamous,
he observed, “it is a bitter fruit for everyone involved.”

But that human proclivity came with a burden, Einstein wrote. It usually
resulted in a man being caught between two women who would become hostile
to one another because of him. “For a well-meaning person, there is no
satisfactory solution to this problem,” he wrote.

"WHEN A MAN FORCES HIMSELF TO REMAIN MONOGAMOUS, IT IS A BITTER FRUIT FOR
EVERYONE INVOLVED."

It’s unclear whether Einstein’s “well-meaning” referred to the unfaithful
husband or the wronged wife. But for both, as Einstein saw it, it wasn’t
the infidelity itself that was a test of character, but how each of them
behaved toward each other as a result. If a husband treated his spouse
decently in other ways, she should tolerate his adultery. “You should be
able to respond to his sins with a smile, and not make a case of war out of
it,” he wrote.

In Einstein’s view, decency included discretion about one’s affairs—even
though Einstein himself wasn’t particularly discreet about his liaisons. In
his letter to Elsa about his affair with Ethel Michanowski, he lauded “Mrs.
M” because she hadn’t hurt Elsa by telling her about the relationship. “She
didn’t tell you a word,” Einstein wrote. “Isn’t that irreproachable?”

Einstein clearly enjoyed the company of women, but his casual attitude
about relationships may have had something to do with his own discomfort
with deep feelings. “When confronted with the emotional needs of others,”
Isaacson wrote in his biography, “Einstein tended to retreat into the
objectivity of his science.”

At the same time, the great scientist’s aversion to monogamy may have had
exacted a cost. Upon the death of his best friend from college, Michele
Besso, Einstein told Besso’s son, “What I admire in your father is that,
for his whole life, he stayed with only one woman. That is a project in
which I grossly failed, twice.”
