TOPIC- GENERAL BASE QUORA QA –Compiled
Q1 What are the things that only Indians say?
KR 1 Had this one presented differently, I would have appreciated
his intelligence; but as a Pharma student from England and a modern Cell
phone handler, I do not even expect it in this pattern even from mad
Gopala.
2 All of us would have seen atleast a decade back the smart phones
talking about or asking you WHICH ENGLISH 1 INDIAN 2 ENGLAND AND 3 AMERICAN
PLUS OTHER NATIONS TOO IN SOME OHONES AVAILABLE. (Have you heard of Korean
and Japanese English? (GOPALA 5 Ws are always imp)
3 Then one would have known the difference. Oxford is a standard
English Lexicon which contain all these words. Then are they so funny
because a mad dog and a Pharma cry about as if only? Have you ever heard of
In ENGLAND only or in England English only?
4 I write so many times nigandu, Etymology, roots dhatu,
Vakyapadia etc but a bright mind would probe through but not Gopala.
Language did not jump from the sky. The words were coined by so may;
uttered by so many; entrenched on this earth; then analysed by a
commission; then added in English lexicon or any other language lexicons.
The only language where words got never changed from then till now, and
used with the same phonetic and several meanings IS SANSKRIT. British tried
several modes as INDO-EUROPEAN, poli, Prakritham was original etc; but
miserably failed as Indo was far ahead of Europe languages; Poli was from
Sanskrit; Prakritham was spoken language by people like PARTHASARATHY BEING
ADDRESSED AS PACHU. Then they said some earlier language but could not step
out as they had no words in their boxes at all. Sanskrit growth was in
literature and in splitting the letters more elaborately.
5 So, every nation where Sanskrit is spoken {viz they speak in
India; Hawaii; Germany (as a matter-of-fact Wendy Doniger can speak aa
fluently Sanskrit); Japan; Australia; China and many more places} uniformly
only as it was 10000 years back. Other languages changed a lot in due
course.
6 What does Oxford dictionary say about these words already in
there which even an American speaks or an English speak, hearing from us;
7 The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is known for its comprehensive
coverage of the English language, including both standard and non-standard
words and phrases. Let's look at each of the terms you mentioned:
Prepone: 1913–prepone, v.²transitive. To bring forward to an earlier time
or date. Opposed to postpone.
1513–1750 prepone, v.¹transitive. To place in front of; to set before.
Pass out: c1460–pass out of use, in use, n.
out of use. No longer part of established practice or procedure; no longer
used, obsolete; (also) not being used, inactive.to go (pass, drop, etc.) …
Like this only: Old English–like this, in this, pron. & adj.Phrases. all
this: cf. all that at that, pron.¹ & adj. & adv. & n.phrases P.1c.i; for
all this, notwithstanding this: cf. for, prep. A.VII.22a like…
1830–like this, in like, adj., adv., conj., prep.In that (or this) manner.
A couple of: c1405–a couple of words, in word, n. & int.
As a count noun (usually in singular). A (short or slight) utterance,
statement, or remark; a brief speech or conversation. Esp. as a word;
similarly…
Cousin sister or cousin brother: 1881–cousin sister, n.
a. South Asian a female cousin of one's own generation; b. Australian (in
Australian Aboriginal usage) a closely related female relative of one's own…
On the switch: I DINT KNOW WHO EXCEPT G MIGHT SAY SO.
Shoe bite: 1873–shoe bite, n.
A sore area on the skin of the foot caused by friction from ill-fitting
footwear, a blister or abrasion; (also) a condition characterized by such…
So all the words do find in Oxford even long back than viewed by some
jokers.
The term "post-postpone" is 1496–postpone, v.transitive. To put off to the
future; to arrange for (an event, etc.) to take place at a later time; to
defer. Also, intransitive.
8 Pass out: Antonym: Wake up, regain consciousness
Like this only (meaning "just like this" or "in this way"): Antonym:
Differently, otherwise
A couple of: Antonym: Many, numerous, several
Cousin sister or cousin brother: Antonym: Since "cousin" already
encompasses both genders in standard English, there's no direct antonym.
You could use "stranger" or "non-relative."
On the switch (assuming it means "switched on" or "active"): Antonym: Off,
inactive, switched off
Shoe bite: Antonym: Comfort (in terms of shoes), pain-free fit
9 There are several authentic books and scholarly works that explore the
differences between Indian English and British English. Here are a few
notable ones (which could have been read and then made fun of India; of
course one who always thinks except him there are no other English read can
afford to think only this way)
"The English Language in India: Historical and Contemporary Aspects" by
Robert Jackson Baumgardner - This book examines the historical development
and current status of English in India, comparing it with British English.
"Indian English: Towards a New Paradigm" edited by Rama Kundu - This
collection of essays provides a detailed analysis of Indian English,
discussing its unique features and how it compares to British English.
"A History of the English Language" by Albert C. Baugh and Thomas Cable -
This comprehensive text includes sections on the development of English in
India and how it differs from British English.
"Indian English: Phonology" by Pingali Sailaja - This book focuses on the
phonological aspects of Indian English and compares them with those of
British English.
"English in India: Functions and Forms" edited by Pingali Sailaja and
others - This book explores the various functions and forms of English in
India, contrasting them with British English.
10 Standard English has regional variations across different
English-speaking nations. Here’s a look at the primary forms of Standard
English spoken in several major English-speaking countries:
United Kingdom (UK) British Standard English: Often associated with
Received Pronunciation (RP), especially in formal contexts. This variant
follows British spelling (e.g., "colour" instead of "color") and vocabulary
(e.g., "lorry" instead of "truck").
United States (US) American Standard English: Characterized by General
American pronunciation and American spelling (e.g., "color" instead of
"colour"). It includes specific vocabulary (e.g., "truck" instead of
"lorry").
Canada Canadian Standard English: A blend of British and American English
influences. Spelling can vary (e.g., both "colour" and "color" are used),
but vocabulary is often closer to American English. Canadian English also
has unique elements (e.g., "toque" for a winter hat).
Australia Australian Standard English: Follows British spelling rules and
has its own distinct pronunciation. Australian vocabulary includes unique
terms (e.g., "bush" for rural areas, "arvo" for afternoon).
New Zealand New Zealand Standard English: Similar to Australian English
in terms of spelling and vocabulary, but with distinct pronunciation. New
Zealand English includes unique words and Maori influences.
India Indian Standard English: Based on British English due to historical
ties. It includes unique Indian terms and phrases (e.g., "prepone" for
advancing an event, "pass out" for graduating). Indian English can have
distinct pronunciation and grammar influences from local languages.
South Africa South African Standard English: Influenced by British
English with unique local vocabulary and pronunciation. It reflects South
Africa’s diverse linguistic landscape.
Ireland Irish Standard English: Based on British English, but with
distinct Irish influences in pronunciation and vocabulary. Irish English
incorporates elements from the Irish language.
11 Other English-Speaking Countries
Singapore and Malaysia: Follow British English standards but include local
terms and slang (e.g., "lah" as a sentence ending particle).
Caribbean Nations: Use British English with local dialects and Creole
influences.
Key Points
Spelling and Vocabulary: Variations exist, such as "colour" (British) vs.
"color" (American), "lorry" (British) vs. "truck" (American).
Pronunciation: Distinct regional accents and pronunciations, like RP in the
UK, General American in the US, and unique accents in Australia and New
Zealand.
Local Terms: Each region has terms unique to their version of English,
reflecting cultural and historical contexts.
Standard English serves as a formal and educational model within each
country, providing a basis for clear communication across diverse regions.

Q2 If a prisoner's sentence has been served but they refuse to
leave the prison, could they be charged and imprisoned for attempting to
remain imprisoned?

Book II : Ayodhya Kanda - Book Of Ayodhya Chapter[Sarga] 63 and 64
narrates the Shravana Kumar bhakti to parent apart from narration in
Mahabharatham and Smd Bhagavatham; and this could have been quoted ,
instead of waste lines. Or even TRS Iyengar G’s {PODA evanellan Guru} could
have been quoted. But why wasting?
Namaskaram literally means a salute; traditionally it is practiced from the
childhood days, to train the children to respect the elders and also to pay
obeisance to the Lord God in temples. It is a gesture of action used to
indicate respect & reverence. The hands held together connects the right
side of the body with the left, and brings the nerve and pulses (nadi)
currents into poised balance, into a consciousness of the suskhama,
awakening the third eye known as gjyana Njanam), within the greeter to
worship God in the greeted. Now let us see what the actual benefits one
gets by doing the Namaskar – the Anjali Mudra. It is from a researcher that
gives the inner meaning & values for prostrating, paying obeisance and
doing sashtanga (falling flat) namaskar. The following article by Sri
Siddharth Dave, gives the fair value, scientific meaning to an age-old
practice in this Indian Sub-continent for ages. It is always recommended
that while prostrating, a person has to do it facing east and to whom it
offered is to be facing the west.
When meeting someone of the same age-group do Namaskar by joining
the fingers and placing tips of the thumbs on the Anahat chakra (at the
centre of the chest). This type of Namaskar increases the spiritual emotion
of humility in the embodied soul. Sattva frequencies from the universe are
attracted by the fingers (which act as an antenna) and are then transmitted
to the entire body through the thumbs which have awakened the Anahat
chakra. This activates the soul energy of the embodied soul. In addition,
by doing Namaskar in this manner to each other, frequencies of blessings
are also transmitted.
A. ‘While paying obeisance to God, bring the palms together.
1. The fingers should be held loose (not straight and rigid) while joining
the hands or palms.
2. The fingers should be kept close to each other without leaving any space
between them.
3. The fingers should be kept away from the thumbs.
4. The inner portion of the palms should not touch each other and there
should be some space between them.
B. After joining the hands one should bow and bring the head forward.
C. While tilting the head forward, one should place the thumbs at the
mid-brow region, i.e. at the point between the eyebrows and try to
concentrate on the feet of the Deity.
D. After that, instead of bringing the folded hands down immediately, they
should be placed on the mid-chest region for a minute in such way that the
wrists touch the chest; then only should the hands be brought down.
Underlying Science in this action:
A. The fingers should not be stiff while bringing the palms together
because this will lead to a decrease in Sattva component from the vital and
mental sheaths and thus increase the raja component in them. By keeping the
fingers relaxed, the subtlest Sattva component will get activated. With the
strength of this energy, embodied souls are able to fight powerful
distressing energies.
B. In the Namaskar posture, the joined fingers act as an antenna to
assimilate the Chaitanya (Divine consciousness) or the Energy transmitted
by a Deity. While joining the palms, the fingers must touch each other
because leaving space between the fingers will result in accumulation of
energy in that space. This energy will be immediately transmitted in
various directions; therefore the seeker’s body will lose the benefit of
this potent energy.
C. About the space to be maintained between the palms:
For a seeker at the primary level, it is advisable to leave space between
the palms; it is not necessary for a seeker at an advanced level to leave
space between the palms.
D. After joining the palms, bow a little. This posture puts pressure on the
navel and activates the five vital energies situated there. Activation of
these vital energies in the body makes it sensitive to accepting sattvik
frequencies. This later awakens the ‘Atma shakti’ (i.e. soul energy of an
embodied soul). And later, Bhav is awakened. This enables the body to
accept in large measures the Chaitanya emitted by the Deity.
E. Touch the thumbs to the mid-brow region. (Please see images above..)
This posture awakens the Bhav of surrender in an embodied soul, and in
turn activates the appropriate subtle frequencies of Deities from the
Universe. They enter through the ’Adnya chakra’ (Sixth of the 7 chakras in
the Kundalini) of the embodied soul and settle in the space parallel to it
at the back interior of the head. In this space the openings to all the
three channels converge; namely, the Moon, the Central and the Sun
channels. Due to the movement of these subtler frequencies in this space,
the Central Channel is activated. Consequently it facilitates the speedy
transmission of these frequencies throughout the body, leading to
purification of both the gross and subtle bodies at the same time.
F. After doing Namaskar, to completely imbibe the Chaitanya of the Deity
(that has entered the hands by now), instead of bringing the folded hands
down immediately, place them on the mid-chest region in such a way that the
wrists touch the chest.
The ‘Anahat chakra’ is located at the centre of the chest. Akin to the
Adnya chakra, the activity of the Anahat chakra is also to absorb the
Sattva frequencies. By touching the wrists to the chest, the Anahat chakra
is activated and it helps in absorbing more of the Sattva component.
Meaning: When an elderly person arrives, the vital energy of the young
person starts rising and when he gets up and does Namaskar, it returns to
normal. – Manusmruti 2.120; Mahabharat, Udhyog, Chapter (Section) 38.1, Sr.
no. 104, 64-65
Explanation: ‘As the sojourn of the elderly person is gradually towards the
southern direction, that is, towards the region of Lord Yama (towards
death), his body starts emitting raja and tama frequencies on a high scale.
When such an elderly person comes in the vicinity of any younger
individual, these frequencies start affecting the younger person. A subtle
magnetic field is created between the two. Consequently, the vital energy
of the younger person is pulled upward. This way the younger person can
suffer due to sudden momentum to his vital energy. When this younger person
does Namaskar to the elderly person, some amount of the Central channel of
his Kundalini system is activated and the Sattva component in it starts
increasing. Consequently, the raja and tama components in him are
influenced by the Sattva component and the vital energy comes back to
normal state. Hence on arrival of an elderly person, it is customary for
the younger individuals to do Namaskar to them.’
‘Namaskar to the elders in the family is one way of surrendering to the God
principle in them. When an embodied soul bows in Namaskar to an elder by
surrendering to the God principle in him, at that time a sense of
compassion is created in his body. This compassion percolates right upto
his subtle body. At that time, energy of his mind is activated and in turn
activates the five vital energies, which are located at the seat of the
Manipur chakra (situated in the Naval region). Transmission of these five
vital energies all over the body then awakens the soul energy. With the
strength of the soul energy, the Central channel gets activated and
converts the expressed energy of spiritual emotion to the unexpressed
energy of spiritual emotion. With the help of this unexpressed energy of
spiritual emotion, the embodied soul, through the medium of elders, gains
the required Deity’s principle from the Universe. For this purpose, while
leaving the house on a journey, the embodied soul should do Namaskar to
elders and with the strength of Sattva frequencies has to protect himself
from distressing frequencies in the atmosphere. Similarly, returning from a
journey, one should immediately do Namaskar to elders and awaken the God
principle in them, which would disintegrate the raja-tama particles from
the air around him, which might have been brought along.
2.. The exact spot to place one’s head on a Saint’s feet:
The big toes of Saints emit maximum Chaitanya; hence we should place our
head on the big toe, than on their foot. If we are in a position to touch
both the toes, then place the head on the right big toe.
3. The position of hands when placing the head on a Saint’s feet:
a. Some interlock their hands behind their backs at the waist and do
Namaskar. If we are in a position to touch both their toes, then we should
place the hands one on each foot and the head should be placed on the big
toe of the right foot. If we are in a position to touch one of Their toes,
then place both the hands on it and keep the head on the big toe.
b. Some do Namaskar by placing hands on the ground. This is also wrong
because if the hands are placed on the ground then the Chaitanya emanating
from the Saint’s feet are absorbed by one and then returns to the earth
through the hands of the one doing Namaskar. Thus the person does not
benefit from it.
c. Some cross their hands and place them on the feet of Saints, that is,
their right hand on the right foot of the Saint and their left hand on the
left foot of the Saint while doingNamaskar. This is a crude imitation of
the manner in which Christians place their crossed hands on their chest.
Instead, our right hand should be placed on the left foot of the Saint and
our left hand on the right foot of the Saint. This is convenient also.
However, if a Guru has started some procedure in a particular sect, then
the hands are to be placed in that manner only.
d. The hands are to be positioned in such a way that the palms are placed
on the feet..
Namaskar to the wooden footwear (paduka) of Saints
‘The left paduka symbolises Lord Shiva and the right symbolises Divine
Energy. The left paduka is the un-manifest saviour energy and the right is
the un-manifest destroyer energy of the Supreme God. The saviour or
destroyer energy of the Supreme God emanates from the ‘pegs’ of the paduka
as per the need. When we do Namaskar by placing our head on the ‘pegs’ of
the paduka, some may experience distress due to the inability to tolerate
the manifest energy emitting from it. Hence, while doing Namaskar to the
paduka, instead of the pegs, place the head on the foremost part i.e. the
place where the Saints place their toes.’
Science: ‘The area around the temple is charged with frequencies
of Deities which leads to an increase in the Sattva component. The presence
of Divine consciousness in the area charges even the stairs in a temple.
‘Climbing’ steps is one of the activities, which increases the raja
component in the body. Hence, the raja component is already activated in
the body of an embodied soul so by touching the steps with the fingers of
the right hand, the Sattva component and peace from the charged premise,
get transmitted to the body through the right hand. In addition, from this
action, the activated raja component in the body can be controlled through
the medium of the surya nadi (Sun channel). This means that, for a moment,
the activities of the Sun channel can be stopped. From this process, the
embodied soul learns to enhance the Sattva component through raja dominant
actions. Therefore, it is very essential to perform the appropriate sattvik
actions at each corresponding level, hence the method of touching the steps
with fingers of the right hand and then moving the fingers or palm over the
head. Even the dust present on the steps is charged with Chaitanya and so
we must respect it and derive spiritual benefit from it.. If the embodied
soul harbours the spiritual emotion that ‘the Chaitanya from the steps be
transmitted all over my body from the dust on my hand’, then it will give
increasing benefit to the embodied soul. In addition if the ego of the
embodied soul is less at that time then it gives even more benefit. When
any action is performed devoid of ego or ‘I’ness it is treated as a
‘non-action’ (akarma-karma).’

Six Kinds of Prostration Position
Sashtanga or eight-limb pranaam
The first one of the prostration position is the Sashtanga or eight-limb
Pranaam, in which a devout prostrates and eight parts of the seeker’s body
touch the ground— knees, stomach, chest, chin, nose, temple, hands and
elbows. In this gesture, the devout also swings his head thrice to touch
the ground with both his temples and the forehead.
Shadanga or six limb pranam
However, the most common type of prostration position is the Shadanga or
six limb pranam, in which six parts of the seeker’s body touch the
ground—knees, toes, hands, stomach, nose and forehead. This pranam
Panchanga or five- limb pranam
There is yet another prostration position is the panchanga or five- limb
pranam in which we lower the five portions of the body —toes, knees, hands,
nose and forehead. While prostrating, we touch the earth, which is an
effective yogic practice that helps us to return to our basic self.
Dandavata pranam
The fourth posture is the Dandavata pranam in which a devout merely bows
his forehead to the ground and touches the toes of the guru and elders to
receive their blessings, which they give by touching his Brahma Talu.
Namaskar
The fifth is namaskar, which means namah—I bow to you. Namaskar is touching
the forehead with the thumbs of your folded hands thrice. Touching the
forehead where the frontal lobe of the brain is placed symbolically means
that one is knocking at the eternal vision or the point of the third eye.
This is also that part of the body which manipulates the higher mental
functions of a person.
Abhinandan
The sixth kind of salutation is abhinandan or welcome in which the person
gently bends his head forward with folded hands, touching one’s own chest,
thereby saying that ‘you reside in my heart’ or ‘you are dear to me’. Air
hostesses welcome us aboard planes by the abhinandan greeting.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The aashirvada (blessings) and sankalpa (good wishes) of elders are highly
valued in India and which we seek during prostration. Positive vibrations
are created by good thoughts. There is tremendous strength in good wishes
springing from a heart full of love, divinity and nobility. We invoke the
good wishes and blessings of elders which flow in the form of positive
energy to envelop us, when we prostrate with humility and respect. That’s
why the posture assumed whether it is in the standing or prone position,
enables the entire body to receive the energy thus received.
There are different forms of showing respect:
Pratuthana : Rising to welcome person
Namaskaara: Paying homes in form of namaste
Upasangrahan: Touching the feet of elders or teachers
Pratyabivaadana: Returning a greeting
Shaashtaanga: Prostrating fully with the feet, knees, stomach, chest,
forehead and arms touching the ground in front of the elder.
