Q1           WhenKarna asked Shri Krishna, “What was my fault?”, what was Shree 
Krishna's answerto that?

KR         A goodextract; but badly framed Dina thanthi style question. Karna 
is this if summedup:” Karna,the dark hero of the Mahabharata, is a character of 
great complexity and depth.His story is filled with moral lessons and 
philosophical questions that forceus to confront the shades of grey in human 
nature. Karna's life journeypresents important moral lessons, such as the value 
of truth and transparencyin relationships. Through Kunti's decision to hide his 
identity, we learn theconsequences of withholding information and the 
importance of honesty. Karna'sunwavering loyalty to Duryodhana also teaches us 
about the power of friendshipand the complexities of loyalty, even in the face 
of moral conflicts. At adeeper level, Karna's story raises profound 
philosophical questions. Itchallenges our understanding of social hierarchies 
and prejudices, forcing usto confront the moral implications of discriminating 
against individuals basedon their birth or social status. Karna's resilience 
and self-worth, despitefacing abandonment and societal scorn, prompt us to 
reflect on the nature ofidentity and the factors that contribute to our sense 
of self. The concept offate and free will is also explored through Karna's 
tragic destiny. We areprompted to question the extent to which individuals can 
alter their destiniesand the role of agency in shaping one's life. This leads 
us to contemplate thebalance between predestination and personal choice. In 
summary, Karna'scharacter embodies the complexities and contradictions of human 
nature. As thedark hero of the Mahabharata, his story imparts moral lessons 
about truth,loyalty, and honesty. It also raises philosophical questions about 
socialhierarchies, personal identity, and the interplay between fate and free 
will.Through Karna's journey, we are compelled to examine our own beliefs, 
values,and actions, and to confront the shades of grey that exist within each 
of us.His story serves as a reminder that heroism and morality are not always 
blackand white, but rather exist in the complex realm of human existence. NEVER 
EVERHE EXPRESSED HIS EMOTIONS AT AALL. 

Q2           Howdo scientists know that the Y chromosome formed 180 million 
years ago?

KR           DNAstudy takes minimum 3 year course but revelation by silk Road 
in Generali is erroneous.

       I    NOT  all species have a Y chromosome or a sexdetermination system 
similar to that of mammals. The existence of sexchromosomes and their role in 
determining sex varies widely among differentgroups of organisms.

In many mammals, including humans, sex determination isbased on the presence or 
absence of specific sex chromosomes. Typically,females have two X chromosomes 
(XX), while males have one X and one Ychromosome (XY). The Y chromosome carries 
genes responsible for male sexdevelopment.

However, in other animals, sex determination can beinfluenced by various 
factors, including environmental conditions, socialstructure, or genetic 
factors unrelated to sex chromosomes. For example:

1.  Birds: Birds have adifferent system of sex determination compared to 
mammals. In birds, femalesare the heterogametic sex (ZW), while males are the 
homogametic sex (ZZ). The Wchromosome is analogous to the Y chromosome in 
mammals and determines femaledevelopment.

2.  Reptiles: Sex determination inreptiles can be influenced by environmental 
factors such as temperature duringegg incubation. Some species have genetic sex 
determination, where sex isdetermined by specific sex chromosomes, while others 
rely on environmental cues.

3.  Fish: Fish exhibit a widerange of sex determination mechanisms, including 
genetic sex determination withsex chromosomes (similar to mammals) and 
environmental sex determinationinfluenced by factors such as temperature or 
social cues.

4.  Invertebrates: Manyinvertebrates, such as insects and crustaceans, have 
diverse mechanisms of sexdetermination, including genetic, environmental, and 
even social factors. Somespecies lack sex chromosomes altogether.

Overall, while the concept of sex chromosomes exists inmany organisms, the 
specific chromosomes involved and the mechanisms of sexdetermination can vary 
significantly among different species.

II        
The evolution of the Y chromosome is a fascinating aspect of genetics 
andevolutionary biology. Here's an overview of the current understanding and 
sometheories regarding the evolution of the Y chromosome:

1.  Degeneration and Gene Loss: Oneof the most well-known aspects of Y 
chromosome evolution is its degenerationcompared to the X chromosome. Over 
time, the Y chromosome has lost many of thegenes it originally shared with the 
X chromosome. This process, known as Ychromosome degeneration, is thought to 
have occurred due to reducedrecombination between the X and Y chromosomes 
during male meiosis. Withoutrecombination to repair mutations and remove 
deleterious alleles, the Ychromosome has accumulated mutations and lost genes.

2.  Sex Determination: TheY chromosome plays a crucial role in determining male 
sex characteristics inmammals, including humans. It contains the SRY 
(sex-determining region Y) gene,which triggers the development of male gonads 
(testes) in embryos. The presenceof the SRY gene on the Y chromosome is 
believed to have been a key factor inthe differentiation of males and females 
during evolution.

3.  Evolutionary Arms Race: Someresearchers propose that the evolution of the Y 
chromosome has been driven byan evolutionary arms race between sexually 
antagonistic genes. As genes on theY chromosome become specialized for 
male-specific functions, they mayexperience selection pressures that differ 
from those acting on genes shared byboth sexes. This could lead to rapid 
evolution and divergence of Y-linkedgenes.

4.  Y Chromosome Persistence:Despite its degeneration, the Y chromosome has 
persisted throughout evolution.One theory suggests that strong selective 
pressures acting on genes involved inmale fertility and reproduction have 
maintained the Y chromosome's integrity.Genes essential for sperm production 
and function are thought to be preservedon the Y chromosome to ensure male 
fertility.

5.  Gene Conversion and Transposition: Somemechanisms, such as gene conversion 
and transposition, may have played roles inthe evolution of the Y chromosome. 
Gene conversion events between the X and Ychromosomes could have facilitated 
the transfer of genes involved inmale-specific functions to the Y chromosome. 
Additionally, transposableelements (jumping genes) may have contributed to the 
reshaping of the Ychromosome's structure and gene content over time.

Overall, the evolution of the Y chromosome is a complex anddynamic process 
shaped by various genetic, evolutionary, and selective forces.While much 
progress has been made in understanding Y chromosome evolution,there is still 
ongoing research to uncover the full extent of its evolutionaryhistory and 
significance.

III         Now letsjust guess era as determined by the writer cum compiler. 
Science says it isaround 50000 years of real Human; it is not a case of Gorilla 
yielded a human;if so all DNA must match between human and Gorilla only 
similarly, but itvaried. BY MUTATIONS Y CHROMO MAY BECOME WEAK, BUT NOT TOTALLY 
CHANGE. Dna ISNOT IN ALL THE CREATURES; AND dna CREATURES HAVE DIFFERENT 
STUCTURE; SO HUMAN EVOLUTION MUST BE OLDER THAN 50000 YRSBEFORE OR HUMAN LIVED 
DIRECT OLDER THAN SCIENCE CAN COMPUTE OR DNA IS UNIQCONCEPT FOR HUMAN AND 
CANNOT MATCH WITH DARWIN’S 

Q3    KR     Humoursense is variable and cannot be uniform. 

Q4           Whowas Hanuman's son? How did he come to the gatekeeper of Hell?

KR I   It seems likeyou're referring to "Makaradhwaja," which is a substance 
intraditional Indian medicine (Ayurveda). Makaradhwaja is believed to be 
acomplex preparation containing purified mercury (parada), sulfur 
(gandhaka),and other herbal ingredients. It is highly revered in Ayurveda for 
itspotential therapeutic properties.

Makaradhwaja is prepared through a meticulous process ofpurification and 
combination of ingredients, often following ancient texts andtraditions. It is 
believed to have rejuvenating and tonic effects on the body,promoting vitality, 
strength, and overall well-being when used in appropriatedoses and under the 
guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner.

However, it's essential to note that the use ofmercury-based preparations such 
as Makaradhwaja can be controversial due toconcerns about potential toxicity 
and safety risks if not prepared andadministered properly. In modern times, 
there is ongoing debate and researchregarding the safety and efficacy of such 
traditional remedies.

As with any herbal or alternative medicine, it's crucial toconsult with a 
qualified healthcare professional, preferably one experienced inAyurvedic 
medicine, before considering the use of Makaradwaja or any otherAyurvedic 
remedy.

All theBELOW  QA are from  Quora digest to me   on  02-05-2024.

 Quoraanswers need not be 100% correct answers 

.Compiled andposted by R. Gopala krishnan,  on 02-05-2024

Q1           When Karna asked Shri Krishna, “Whatwas my fault?”, what was Shree 
Krishna's answer to that?

A1           Lakshmi Telidevara, Studying VyasaBharat again and again.2y

Karna never askedKrishna what was his fault.

There are threemain instances where both Krishna and Karna interacted with each 
other.

When Krishna askedKarna to join Pandavas in Udyoga Parva.

Here Karna justrefused Krishna’s suggestion and even revealed his premonition 
Of Pandavavictory ahead. He did not question Krishna how was he at fault...

2. Before thecommencement of battle,in Bhishma Parva ,Krishna asked Karna to 
join their sidesince anyway he is not going to fight for Kauravas till Bhishma 
is in charge.Here also he did not question Krishna.

3. On 17 th dayKarna asked Arjuna to wait till he pulls his chariot wheel from 
the earth.Krishna gave a speech reminding him all his misdeeds. Then also Karna 
did notquestion Krishna.. .

Sanjaya continued,'Thus addressed, O Bharata, by Vasudeva, Karna hung down his 
head in shame andgave no answer. With lips quivering in rage, he raised his 
bow, O Bharata, and,being endued with great energy and prowess, he continued to 
fight with Partha.

Section 91 KarnaParva

Karna was silent .He knew his participation in adharma based deeds done towards 
Pandavas and thenhis share in humiliating Draupadi and finally death of 
Abhimanyu.That was whyhe never questioned Krishna thus..“ What was my fault?”

Conscience is thebest judge for any person. It won’t tell lies.

My answer is based on story of Vyasa Bharat

Q2           How do scientists know that the Ychromosome formed 180 million 
years ago?

A2           “Silk Road”, Studied at GenerativePre Training Feb 29

It's true that theY chromosome diverged from the X chromosome about 180 million 
years ago, whenmammals were just starting to evolve.

But it's not truethat the Y chromosome was born at that time.

In fact, the Ychromosome is much older than that, and it used to be just like 
any otherchromosome.

You see, sexchromosomes are not fixed in nature.

They can changeover time, depending on the evolutionary pressures and 
mechanisms that shapethem.

For example, somereptiles and fish use environmental cues, such as temperature, 
to determinetheir sex.

Others havemultiple sex chromosomes, such as the platypus, which has 10 of them.

Some have no sexchromosomes at all, such as the banana slug, which is a 
hermaphrodite.

The Y chromosomeall started with a mutation.

A mutation thatcreated a gene called SRY, which stands for sex-determining 
region of Y.

This gene acts as aswitch that triggers the development of male characteristics 
in mammals.

Once this geneappeared, the X and Y chromosomes stopped recombining with each 
other, andstarted to drift apart.

The Y chromosomelost most of its genes, and became specialized for 
male-specific functions,such as spermatogenesis.

The X chromosome,on the other hand, kept most of its genes, and became the 
default chromosomefor females.

But the storydoesn't end there.

The Y chromosome isnot static, either. It's constantly evolving and adapting to 
new challenges andopportunities.

The human Ychromosome has gained 41 new genes since it diverged from the 
chimpanzee Ychromosome, about 6 million years ago.

These genes areinvolved in various aspects of male health and disease, such as 
fertility,cancer, and immunity.

The Y chromosomealso has a unique way of repairing itself, by using palindromes 
- sequences ofDNA that are the same forward and backward - to prevent the 
accumulation ofharmful mutations.

All in all, the Ychromosome is not a relic of the past, but a dynamic and 
essential part of thepresent.

It's not going todisappear anytime soon, but it's also not going to stay the 
same.

    It's going to keep changing and evolving,just like everything else in life.

Q3         Canyou make me laugh in 20 seconds?

 ‘Token Number 34’

 ‘Sir I should tell you first that I am achronic smoker; you should help me 
quit smoking’

 ‘Sure, I shall do all I can. Once you arementally strong and decided to quit, 
half the job is done. Please take a seat’.I smile.

 ‘Sir I was first seen by the famous Prof ---,at medical college. He was such a 
kind man. He explained to me all the ills ofsmoking and requested me to stop 
smoking; but I didn’t.’

 ‘OK’

 ‘Then unfortunately he passed away, I wasclueless as to what to do’.

-

 ‘Then I started consulting Prof ***; you mustbe knowing him’.

 ‘Yes, I was actually his student’

 ‘Oh really, he was such a learned man. He wasa man of few words. He clearly 
told me the consequences of smoking, the risk oflung cancer etc, but I just 
could not stop’.

 ‘As you know sir, Prof *** died last year’.

 ‘And then I started consulting Dr … You know,he is the busiest doctor in town. 
Sir, unlike usual doctors he has a shorttemper. He shouted at me. He scolded me 
right and left, and told me that If Idon’t stop smoking, he won’t see me again. 
I was so scared.’

-

 ‘I learnt form newspaper last week that Dr …is no more, he died suddenly in 
sleep. So now I decided to see you’

-

Despite the AC infull blast, I was sweating.

I knew my time hascome.

 ‘Sister, please ask the reception to refundhis fees’

-

I called my wife.

 ‘Just check if we had paid the LIC premium ontime.’

 ‘But why, at this time of the day?’ asked mywife.

 ‘Nothing, just this Adani scare, thought ofchecking out’.

Q4           Who was Hanuman's son? How did hecome to the gatekeeper of Hell?

A4           Vedic Meet, Lives in India(2020–present)Feb 7

Lord Hanuman isrevered by a lot of people. He was a Bal Brahma Chari (Celibate) 
and hefollowed the path of Brahmacharya (Celibacy) throughout his life, 
yetMakardhwaj is called his son. According to Hindu mythology, there are 
differentinterpretations of who Hanuman's son was and how he became associated 
with thegatekeeper of Hell. Here is the real story:

How MakardhwajBecame Hanuman’s Son:

After burning theentire Lanka by his tail, Hanuman embarked on his way to 
return.

He dived into theocean to extinguish the flame on his tail.

Then a drop ofHanuman’s sweat dropped into the ocean.

This sweat drop wasswallowed by a mythical creature called a "Makara," and 
Makardhwajawas born as its offspring.

He was raised byAhiravana, the demon king of the netherworld (Patala) and 
brother of Ravana.

Some versionsportray Makardhwaja as a loyal gatekeeper of Patala, while others 
depict him asa fierce enemy of Rama and Hanuman.

How Makardhwajbecame the gatekeeper of Hell:

According toValmiki Ramayana, younger brother of Ravana, Ahi Ravana once kept 
Shree Ram andLakshman captive.

He kept them in thehell and assigned Makardhwaj to guard the gate of Hell.

In order to saveRam and Lakshman, Hanuman reached to Hell where he was stopped 
by Makardhwaj.

After a fiercebattle, Lord Hauman won ultimately.

However, he wasamazed by Makardhwaj’s appearance.

He was acombination of a Vanar (Monkey) and a fish. Then, Hanuman asked who he 
is.

 He replied that he is Hanuman’s son.

Q5           What are some of the greatestexamples of presence of mind?

A5           Vishal Singh, PGP in Finance &Marketing, Indian Institute of 
Management Lucknow (Graduated 2019)6y

Once an Interviewer(I) asked a candidate (C) to have a good look at each and 
everything in theroom. He gave him 2 minutes to do so and then asked him to 
leave and come backafter 15 minutes.

After 15 mins…

C: may I come insir.

I: Sure.

Candidate comes intakes his seat.

I: So, now tell mewhat has changed in this room in the past 15 mins.

Candidate looked ateverything in the room. He was sure most of things were in 
the same place asearlier. After a couple of minutes of his intense looking he 
said –

C: The three handsof the clock (which was hanging right in front of him) – 
Hour, Minute andSecond.

I: (Got impressedand smiled) Okay I wasn’t expecting that but your answer is 
correct as well.Let’s move on…
