I lead a certain kind of life; I think in a certain pattern; I have certain beliefs and dogmas and I don’t want those patterns of existence be disturbed because I have my roots in them. I don’t want them to be disturbed because the disturbance produces a state of unknowing and I dislike that.

So the brain cells have created a pattern and those brain cells refuse to create another pattern which may be uncertain. The movement from certainty to uncertainty is what I call FEAR

[ Started writing an article on India’s 61 st Independence. Lost interest half way. Below is half complete article. Interested can read at leisure ] Proceedings of recent time have left me disillusioned. Uncurbed inflation, cowardice acts of terrorism, violence in J & K, shameful political drama are just one too many more than I can recount have left me perplexed trying to find ‘how long India can exist in politically unity?’ I thought to have become amalgamated into the Indian thinking fabric of defeatism, pessimism and false ego.

In the British-Indian battler at the fortress of Srirangapatanam in Mysore, in 1979, at this point India is succumbing to the invading British, but under Muslim ruler Tipu Sultan, India is still fighting. One tactic, put in place by the sultan’s father Hyder Ali, is a formidable rocket force. Each Indian battalion had 200 rocketeers in place, armed with ample supplies of rockets capable of traveling a thousand yards and tipped with lethal warheads, including gunpowder charges, pointed tips, and even a kind of whirling blade that shreds everything on point of impact like a meat grinder. Though by then Europe had rockets, none of them had the range and lethality of these rockets. During the battle, thousands of Indian missiles slam into the British forces, considerably slowing their advance. Finally, when the fortress falls, the British capture several hundred loaded rockets and rocket launchers and thousands of unarmed ones. Some of these are packed and shipped back to ...
