KR:  Allowed to post only in iyer well

Q1            Onions have black spots , do you know what they are?  Whether
they can be used?

KR:            Black spots in fruits and vegetables may be caused by so many
factors and all circumstances need not cast away those valuable articles.

Black spots in fruits and vegetables can be caused by a number of fungal or
bacterial diseases, including:

Black spot: A fungal disease that affects tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants,
and capsicums. It's also known as early blight or target spot. The disease
is spread by rain, irrigation, and the hands of pickers. Warm, wet
conditions favour outbreaks.

Alternaria alternate: A latent fungus that causes black spots on a variety
of fruits and vegetables, including tomatoes, eggplants, beans, peppers,
and cabbages. The disease is favoured by cool, wet weather.

Anthracnose: A disease that affects grapes and is also known as black spot.

Apple scab and pear scab: A disease that affects apples and pears and is
also known as black spot.

Bacterial black spot: A disease that affects mangoes and is caused by
bacteria rather than a fungus.

*If the vegetable is firm and crisp, with no off smells or soft, mushy
bits, it's usually safe to eat*. You can trim off any areas with spots if
you prefer. (KR Most of the plantains will have spots and so remove only
that spot)

To control black spots, you can use a fungicide concentrate like Daconil.
Spray all plant surfaces until thoroughly wet.

Q2            What will people look like in heaven, considering that God
has no form or shape? Will they also have no form or shape?

KR:    Candice a kid made a joke and it is dealt with so seriously by the
compiler so called; added a note also from Vyasa bharatha perhaps (?!!)
compiler: My note- I have a base for including this answer.  In Mahabharata
swargaeohanam, when Yudhisthira reached heaven with Yamadharma, he found
his cousins headed by Duryodhana addressing him-“Vanganne, vanga” (Welcome
elder brother, welcome”] Thank God there is no song like anne anne…
{Candice wrote his philosophy and instead had the compiler read so far,
would have understood how to answer the question properly---I am trying to
explain so imagine a RUBICS CUBE WITHIN A RUBICS CUBE WITHIN ANOTHER RUBICS
CUBE AND THEN ANOTHER RUBICS CUBE WITHIN A RUBICS CUBE. Be good get
baptized be a LIGHT TO HUMANS.}

           KR:   1 Vaishnavism alone says NITHYA SURI of a shape as
described by Sri Ramanuja. 2 Vedic system says soul which is aroopa 3   All
other religions including Buddhism, do not believe in punarjanma.

Q4            Is there any place in India where "Indians are not allowed"?

KR         There are places where tribal places and nature atmosphere areas
are prohibited for all including Indians.

CULTURAL QA 12-2024-02

Dear friends,

I am happy to intimate my friends who wait for my CULTURAL QA postings,

Q1            Onions have black spots , do you know what they are?  Whether
they can be used?

A1            Vasant Patel, CEO at SUNSTAR INFOTECH (1997–present)14h

When you peel onions, you must have often noticed that after removing the
peel, black spots appear on the onion. These spots get peeled off by
rubbing them lightly.

Apart from this, due to the presence of potassium in it, it keeps the heart
healthy and controls cholesterol levels. It also helps in reducing the risk
of many types of cancer.

However, sometimes when you buy or cut onions, you will find that there are
black spots on the onion, which are either in the peel or inside the
onion. Usually
by looking at it, it seems that it is some type of fungus.

What are these black spots?

These black spots are caused by a special type of fungus, Aspergillus niger.
This fungus is found in the soil and can usually be seen on onions.
Although it does not cause any serious disease like Black Fungus, it can be
harmful to our body.

This fungus can cause an allergic reaction in our body. In particular,
people who are already prone to allergies should not consume this type of
onion.

Harmful for cholera and respiratory problems:

Also, this onion can be harmful to persons suffering from asthma or
respiratory diseases. Therefore, if the onion has such black spots, peel it
well and eat it. It would be better if you remove one or two layers of the
onion and then eat it.

Keeping onions in the refrigerator is also not good for health, as this can
cause this fungus to grow more. Some research has also found that this type
of fungus can cause problems like headache, vomiting, stomach ache, and
diarrhea.

Tip:

If you see black spots on the onion, avoid eating it, especially if this
type of fungus is visible in it. It can be dangerous for your health.

Q2            What will people look like in heaven, considering that God
has no form or shape? Will they also have no form or shape?

A2            Candice Cotton,5h

Heaven is the same as earth. You have a duplicate physical body same age
same hair color yet it you are brown hair originally and dye it blonde you
will be in  heaven with brown hair. Same age same face same scars but a
paralyzed person will walk. The blind will see and the deaf hear. Their is
no pain and animals are there too.

This physicist seen his own dog and another dog some cats and a brown horse
with a black mane. The fact is heaven is a paradise earth right in front of
your face but invisible. It can't be seen because our bodies are from a
different vibration. All matter is energy at its fundamental particles. As
a radio has channels as an onion has layers so do the worlds. There are
worlds within worlds all at different frequencies of vibrational matter.
Now for the question of a new born who dies on this earth they are
duplicated too and age to 8 and then stay at that age. As far as the
difference, physical objects can be materialized out of thin air just by
wishing and visualizing it. One kid had a whole 1970s star wars collection
of toys. Another community was gated and had swimming pool and a Battlestar
Galactica arcade game and pinball machines. People were drinking something
and having a great time and girls were in swim suits. The sky had clouds
and verbal voice could be heard which that info would suggest that heaven
has air. Quantum entanglement is how we are duplicated. A woman was asked
how old she was and she said slowly “fifty thousand years” that sounds
crazy but at a mansion a woman had a pet dinosaur 🦕 that looked like a
baby brontosaurus.

On another occasion a man with a blacked out face made a single sheet of
paper rise off the stack and fly across the room. The image of where these
worlds are I am trying to explain so imagine a RUBICS CUBE WITHIN A RUBICS
CUBE WITHIN ANOTHER RUBICS CUBE AND THEN ANOTHER RUBICS CUBE WITHIN A
RUBICS CUBE. Be good get baptized be a LIGHT TO HUMANS.

My note- I have a base for including this answer.  In Mahabharata
swargaeohanam, when Yudhisthira reached heaven with Yamadharma, he found
his cousins headed by Duryodhana addressing him-“Vanganne, vanga” (Welcome
elder brother, welcome”

Q3            What are some facts about India that few Indians are
generally unaware of?

A3            Asif Akbari, Project Management Professional Updated 6y

U may not believe but its true :P read once

1. India is the world’s 2nd largest English speaking country

5. That it is illegal for a son  in India to neglect their parents after
their retirement.

My note- Actually many children will be neglecting more, but very difficult
for parents to prove it if at all they are ready. If at all parents win,
they will be harassed by children more telling-“you insulted us taking to
court “

6. Only 3% of Indians pay income tax.

*My note- We cannot forget  from eating in restaurents , purchasing
provisions all are paying tax.*

Q4            Is there any place in India where "Indians are not allowed"?

A4            Nikhil Middey, No one needs a vacation more than a person who
just had one! Updated 8y

I wouldn't say the place I mention in my answer would appeal as “Indian’s
not allowed” . But the people of this village are completely isolated from
the monotony of India's culture. I have visited a trek in Himachal Pradesh
last year and the Trek lasted till 10 days. The 3rd day of the trek , needs
to be passed through a village called Malana.

Our Trek guide has warned us on Day-1 itself that we are not stopping
anywhere at this place till we pass the boundaries of Malana village, not
even for taking rest (We wouldn’t even think of stopping there anyway,
because the place is so unhygienic and full-of-garbage :P). We were told
that they aren’t so friendly with outsiders who invade their privacy and we
aren’t supposed to talk or ask anyone for water even. We just had to keep
walking in straight line till we pass the boundaries of village and we
weren’t allowed to even sit anywhere as they even consider few rocks
present there as holy bodies.

Malana is an ancient Indian village so formed when Alexander the Great,
visited or rather I’d say invaded India back in 326 BC, and there were few
soldiers of his who have been left behind wounded and these soldiers are
now to be considered as the ancestors of Malana population.

This solitary village has its own autonomous govern body, secluded houses
and places spread across small regions . They do their own agriculture and
take care of their own living-hood. A dam project, the Malana Hydro Power
Station, has brought Malana much closer to the rest of the world and
provides revenue for the region.

They have their own schools built and also their education system being
followed.

They usually don’t allow anyone to touch or trespass their property or
village and has their own policy of implementing fine or rather simply
buying them a ‘Bakra’ (Mutton) if violated anything in their own personal
jurisdiction.

EDIT : Few replied disagreeing that people of Malana actually are friendly
and not as outward as thought and told so but I just wanted to shed some
light on the culture-shock we witnessed during our visit. Please do read
comments by Gandharv Garg , Divjot Singh or Sujata Nair where she has spent
5 days there at Malana village, mentioning about the seclusion she
witnessed but that everything at the village is not welcoming either.

Q5            Are humans an unpleasant food for wild animals to eat?

A5            Anna Sebastian, Dec 3

*Quite the opposite. Humans taste delicious to wild animals!* We are slow.
We don’t have thick fur that often gets caught in wild animals’ teeth and
irritates them. We don’t have tough skin. We don’t even have claws. There
is plenty of evidence in the fossil record that wild animals were content
to take advantage of these advantages.

Have you ever wondered why children are afraid of the dark? Some scientific
evidence suggests that we developed this instinct in response to the cats
Dinofelis and Megantereon. These big cats were great nocturnal hunters of
humans, and a number of unfortunate ancient human skulls have been found
bearing their distinctive puncture marks. These cats were the nightmares of
our ancient ancestors.

In modern times, we are hunted by Lions, Tigers, Jaguars, Bears, Wolves,
Mountain Lions, Hyenas, Coyotes, Crocodiles, Alligators, Sharks, and
countless billions of microbes. Predation by large animals is relatively
rare due to the drastic reduction in animal populations and habitats. Human
killing by microbes has been on hiatus due to the discovery of antibiotics,
a situation that evolution is trying to correct. There will come a time
when microorganisms will not be able to be controlled by antibiotics.
