The nonsense begins




For next one month or so market media, sellers, manipulators and all kinds of attention seekers will try to invade the mind space and eyeball frame. All for the bunch of amazing mediocre but colossally exaggerated money spinners who go by the name ‘team India’. Some six odd teams are competing for what is termed as world cup. Never was world so short shifted. Mostly nations not known for sporting skills give importance to something as sedate as cricket. The only saving grace is Australia and England, the white men presence gives it the authenticity of ‘world’, as also exposure to commentators from developed societies. This gives the credibility that they desperately seek. Unfortunately cricket doesn’t have many followers in these nations, as they are competent in other sports that need high level of athleticism and skills. Cricket is mostly taken up by low calibre athletes. So the cash rich Indian icons are playing the low grade sportspersons from these nations, even in West Indies the region that produces best athletes. They don’t prefer cricket and is quite a mediocre involvement. Even then Indians are not able to win is a statement on mediocrity of this society as also manipulation of sport bodies. They need minimum calibre upon which they arrange their sucking machine. More than sporting skills, which is indeed is low in cricket (I have seen ‘Bengal tiger’ –the travesty, running at the peak of his career. I couldn’t help laughing!!), in India it is their selling skills, the market desirability that plays a factor. I don’t think Sri Lankan players, despite being much talented than many Indian icons, would make the cut into Indian team, nor do I think Tendulkarji would have played for so long (and accumulated his inane world shattering records) if he was in Australia (they would have kicked him out, and would have shown no reverence to extend his expiry date and hence keep making the nation proud. It’s a manipulation that works uniquely in India). Competence rarely has anything to do with individual records in teams sports. But Indians are sucker for records; it’s a path to nirvana for many. The kind of amazingly stupid things people do to get into record books. It is rarely about skills or competence but about quirk to show one as different (check the Guinness book entries of Indians and astounding enthusiasm on these matters). It is an amazing affliction this insatiable urge to create records. I guess it originates in uniquely Indian mind that seeks to justify itself from squatter’s framework. From the entitled world that is ordained to them our little fellow assumes himself to competent, it is something that is gifted. The squatter’s framework guarantees it, it is ordained. He/She is undoubtedly assumed to be cut above the rest, the stars are aligned for greatness, now it is for our little fellow to prove it. In most cases inheritance and hereditary benefits takes care of these, major hiccups are cushioned. But for some individual it becomes a vocation, to showcase themselves as superior. Unfortunately they are least of talented they therefore choose innovative means to justify themselves, create records. Highbrow ones justify themselves in areas where competence is judged subjectively, here they work on manipulations and clout. You will see that most journalists/politicians/artists with pretension will end up writing books, being an author is natural progression in the entitled world, anything short of it unacceptable in the scheme of things. It maybe a different matter that nobody reads these nor does it measure up to the scrutiny. There are hundreds English magazines that one get to see these days, must be a racket to convert black money. They also meet each other in literary melas (a new market friendly fad) and assure each other of their uniqueness and intellectual superiority. The only problem being subjective can be manipulated to be great in Indian context but it rarely come anywhere near international standards. Therefore amazing lack of Indians in international scene or where the competence matters (rare examples are always there but you can be assured they never seek support from market manipulation). Cricket is not an athletic sport, and no Indian cricketer ever came anywhere near international standards of competence as a sportsman. Even as cricketer they are mostly trivial exaggeration, it is a market ploy.  
                             

 It is the addiction into inane and peripheral trivialities that seeks to make cricket compelling for Indians, the quirks, superstition, inane anecdotes, personal lives so on. The so called ‘sport’ is amazingly limited while effectively streamlined for senseless couch potatoes. They watch it whole day with kind of puerile patience that comes as a second nature to bovine society like India. No learning, no intellect involvement just crass noises of collective justifications and some feeling of satisfaction for the nation, this then is sought to be milked. The bovine audience is now readied as buyers. Watching cricket is an amazingly trivial way to value time. You could sleep, you could go for a walk and observe things, or even watch something meaningful on TV. Cricket effectively destroys these, as they glue for hours and hours. It is sad they catch them young, it is the worst thing that can happen to a youngster.  Coco Cola boy (also venerable Tendyaji, sucker for records, positioned as humble gentleman, never takes responsibility for ills of game, always market tuned for lick. It will take some time to regain credibility for Bharat Ratna. It’s been severely degraded) is spreading happiness, they aim children and make enthusiast out of them. It is extremely sad that children are exposed to these. It is a disaster, as this game can be addictive and then it is smooth sail as senseless couch potatoes, eventually buyers with all kinds of lifestyle diseases. It is colossal waste of time and human resource. It attracts people with limited intellect and irresponsible nature. There is so much to see and know in this world. Watching cricket severely dents these, it is nothing but a sheer waste of time and energy. Indeed I would even venture to say that not watching cricket can be in itself productive, it brings meaningfulness as also negates orchestrated market traps enrolled in crude jingoism. Hopefully responsible parents understand values of these, and prevent children being sucked into these exploitations. Cricket has the potential to convert normal individuals into couch hugging market friendly zombies who knows to see, clap, consume and feel exhilarated about his waste.

The feudal nature of society has seen to that many in the lap of luxury and wasteful ways seeked redemption in cricket, it also brought them close to their colonial masters, the attention they craved. Since they had clout they pushed cricket down the throat of Indians, in the process these mediocre people become sports icons. It need be noted that Indian cricket despite icons and record breakers, as also low calibre of competitions from international teams, never ever did well. Out of six odd teams they rarely won ‘world cup’ (till recently, more to do with ineffectual oppositions) is a statement in itself. While the intellectualisation was done by people who studied in England and swing some bats, ofcourse being least of talented they worked on their English and ended up as writers, journalists and sport columnists. They did the spade work of creating halo on mediocre cricketers and creating icons out of amazingly limited sportsmen, in the meanwhile romanticising the game with their compelling narrations and eased into our conscious. These elites gave credibility to the farce, and now it has become part of market ploy to trap wasteful irresponsible Indians. The grip is tight. The nonsense called ‘world cup’ precedes everything in the market media’s conception of world. Other sports suffer, not many will know that National games are happening and many talented athletes are putting in their best. In the skills and athletic calibre many are much talented than overrated and exaggerated mediocre Indian cricketers. But you can already predict their arduous path, in the context of things Indian cricketers have become curse on Indian society. 



One recent example would really put things in context. An Australian cricketer died sometime back as he was hit by a ball, despite the fact that it was domestic match for Indian market media and commentator worth their soul it became the news. They poured on it, it was main news for days, articles, columns and god knows what all were written. They were grief stricken; I am told that the concerns of Indians deeply touched Australians. It should, that is what Indians are good at. The concern for tribulations of whites (I have written earlier, Indians in Britain are such agreeable people has left even Britisher’s consternating, some even think that they could have carried on ruling Indians. Such fantastic people!!) and the games they play has been a constant narration with Indian elite. There are sportsperson in India who suffer, die or are grievously injured in sports. Indeed a jockey died, a footballer died (from Mizoram, Peter Biaksangzuala in the picture) last year, in case of Jockey it was not even reported while footballer was a minor incident and the so-called sport journalists (mostly sucking on doles falling from cricket) didn’t show much concern. The kind of concern that Indians showed for domestic Australian cricketer when put into the realities of India will show what kind of scoundrels these people are. It is the same narration on which ‘world cup’ is being celebrated. It is a farce on Indians, in the name of Indians. Many cricketers who amount to nothing in their own country are icons in this manipulative mediocrity seeking nation. Many Australians (and to some extend England/Pakistan players) make money even after retirement, as players (in money sucking travesty called IPL), they work as commentators, experts in TV channels and even have become part of entertainment industry in India. How much trivial can it get?

AAP is bet on future…

 Stupendous no doubt, and remarkable that it has comeback from setback, many had even written them off. Without falling into exaggerators and manipulators AAP if it understands its limitations and strengths can do amazingly well in big cities like Mumbai/Bengaluru/Pune, as also smaller states like Haryana, Punjab…It is an alternative that people wants, but it shouldn’t be influenced by market media exaggerations and shouldn’t be in a hurry. It will have to be very careful about manipulators sniffing around who have amazing ability to morph into any requirements that assures lick. They fatten themselves by eating from inside. It is high deception game that pretentious elite Indians have unique ability, common people know their ways (indeed given a chance they will emulate! it is a social mobility framework that Indians are trapped in). Congress party has fed these people and paid for it, they now cannot live without power and clout. They are touts of power, nepotism and cronyism their weapons. They have their tentacles spread across. AAP should be very careful, and I am sure they have learned from the mistakes and have necessarily sobered. However that doesn’t mean AAP start playing safe and morph into another political party. They can surely take up and work on issues that resonates with people, genuine cause that is not manipulation (unlike the blunders committed earlier, repeat will not be forgiven).

The entrenched elites who control the narration and suck on the big licks know the game, and will ransack on any opportune moment. They will eat from inside with nice sweet liberal sounding decibels. I am told likes of Crude woman has already start to sniff the trail, most likely she is raising her stakes among the manipulator community (the side show aiming for big lick continues!).  

 BJP does a Congress: Swagger of arrogant Congress leaders has started to infect the BJP, I guess it is power framework. Nice talk and profligate ways cannot go together, it is called hypocrisy. I really cannot understand how does someone wear dress with his name?!!, the cost of which has become a folklore, very difficult to remove that from public memory. The leaders tend to become like the erstwhile rulers, small time maharajas. Further, parachuting ‘leaders’ and imposing it on party workers, taking committed cadre and followers for granted is something that smacks of traditional arrogance. These manipulations cannot work, particularly in city states like Delhi where they have options. Further, a person who spent decades of her/his life in uniform cannot be normal, though popular medium may celebrate these people but they are unsuitable. Insulated uniformed world cocoons them into self-importance (‘I didn’t fail but the party failed’!!). Kiran Bedi is didactic in her ways and her school teacher sounding sermons has strong limitations. She is also a compulsive attention seeker (indeed hobnobbing with ZK&Co and other manipulators at one point, influence is obvious). They have unique combination of blabber talks, lacking contemplation, pathetically arrogant, assured of invincibility, makes them obnoxiously pushy. 

BJP must protect and nurture its core interest groups, and shouldn’t fall into the trap of ‘liberal’ elite –their squatter modern seeking cousins (a vicious self-serving variety that has parked itself in power centres, these mediocre people have severely undermined institutions). Though this blogger doesn’t have much expectation from BJP, since they are mostly from traditional elite, firmly entrenched in squatter’s, the other side of the coin as Congress. Arun Jaitely could easily pass of as a mix of Mani Shanker and Digvijay, with extra dose of cunningness. You must have seen the way he handled the black money revelation at HSBC, such routine matter, patronising tone. Surely AAP will take them on black money. Farce talk of entrenched Delhi elite like Jaitely is something that AAP should be break in with straight talk that will surely resonate with people. 

This blogger though will prefer BJP to be a significant presence, as the necessary balance is needed. Atleast in the later part of its rule BJP must bring in UCC and also remove Art. 370, reform archaic laws and bring in credibility to the institutions. Swift action against erring politicised bureaucrats is welcomed.  These degradation and lack of reforms has caused immense misery to common people. Clearly Congress had also degraded awards and state largesse to cronies, and this blogger doesn’t expect BJP to take ethical grounds on these matter (ideally the state must award people who really matter, since they are so degraded that is not going to happen), it will work against its interests. There are people who have staked themselves for the success of BJP (includes popular names who should be given their due, those who have been ignored by manipulators of Congress) ignoring their base and trying to nurture pretentions will be stupid and will surely backfire. 

This blogger finds nothing wrong in ghar wapsi (something stupid that can be ignored, and yes they are within their rights), but the way mediocre squatter entrenched liberal masquerading elites have reacted has peeved me. Clearly decades of being fed power and clout has created a section that mistakes itself to be safe guarders of society, and would like firm control over narration and sway it as they wish. They also have international clout and give the impression of spokespersons of Indian goodness. Nothing could be far from the reality. BJP must nurture people to counter these, there are people who are good in perception play. In the end one can be sure common people will have rough deal. …well atleast AAP will be constant presence!!  
       
Thus spake Pope …

Pope started with such big expectation, as also right intent added to the fact that he is from ‘third world’.  But unfortunately he is just a religious leader, and that is what he is. It is amazing the kind of things this influential man has been saying recently. Latest being ‘not having children is selfish’!! These will reciprocate in primitive god hugging societies, indeed irrespective of any religion. Numbers increase the clout, and therefore power. Does Pope Francis realise that the most pressing problem is population. It has severely undermined everything, every progress and has put immense pressure on planet and resources (at a personal level high population has severely degraded my standard of life, I face population pressure all the time). Indeed in the context of things having children is a selfish act, and the way they are brought up in narrow walls of religions, family, nations so on further trivializes the matter. Indeed Pope will find resonance with the market, European economists are suggesting that baby boom will kick start the economies!! Economists and Pope are the latest market friendly happiness disseminating zombies. I am hugely disappointed with Pope Francis, we had such high hopes on him. 


This blogger understands that evolved societies don’t have priorities on family or progenies nor do they prefer religion. This blogger for one, understand and associate with such people and conceptions. These structures, that human create to control and divide, and yes feel secure, has outlived its significance. Must add, has become an oppressive nuisance. That is what is happening in Europe, probably that is Pope's cause of concern, concomitantly immigrants have started to change the nature of societies. There is a sense of insecurities among the inhabitants.  Indeed the egalitarian values are sought to modified and fit into the sensibilities of unegalitarian worldview, and numbers matter. Some religion with its primitive worldview and arrogant nature of its followers has the tendency to degrade societies. To begin with why do followers of some religions refers others as infidels and unbelievers. I find basic flaw, indeed indecency, in the terms of engagement with others. Its squatter’s world of entitled self importance over others, seeking worth by degrading others is nothing new in this part of the world, but when it is associated with religious freedom then it is shocking.

A case of kettle calling…




The above picture is of Dalai Lama leaving White house, through the back door, and what you see is garbage around. This should put in perspective on high moral ground some are taking. Most Indians remain tolerant, though more tolerant than what is needed. They many time lack the intent to protest, as the cunning elite obfuscate the reality and take advantage of the confusion. India should be judged in relation to deteriorating situation around the world, clearly it cannot be isolated from the surrounding. Indians don't live in pristine perfect world. Little skirmishes happening vis a vis Christian (in Delhi) should be dealt accordingly, though loony left (with some gargantuan hedonistic appetite) and some mischief makers who want to corner Union government on the matters is ridiculous to say the least. Just because evangelical groups have lots of clout in US shouldn’t be reason why PM should ‘break his silence’. He has better things to do, and yes, like US President, PM Modi has his constituency/interests to worry about. He must work accordingly. Some localised stone throwing/break ins cannot be exaggerated. These are law and order problems. In the precedence of problems Indians face these are nothing.   
  
Most importantly, the reason why Christian missionaries/groups are holding some prime properties in cities (quite disproportionate to its population) is because of colonial power legacy. As and when India got independence these should have been taken by the government (except the church) and converted into what was considered important for nation (In Mysore many of the erstwhile royal structures have been converted into government institutions). Though must add here that Christian missionaries have done tremendous work in the field of education as also giving strength/moral support to marginalised. Freedom fighters firmly entrenched in squatter’s wanted to show themselves as modern and egalitarian therefore they associated themselves to colonial remnant. Christian missionaries were direct beneficiaries of colonial incursions. They were assured of the spoils. It is also becoming clear that in West Christian missionaries were quite aware of genocide on Jews, they may have even actively connived with fascist. With mullahs getting funded through petrodollars, and missionaries enjoying the benefits of colonialism as also cash rich west, it is but natural that ghar wapsi will gain credence. Hindu rightist groups should have their space, and nobody should have problems with these. It is hypocrisy of highest order if they find any problem with these, and that is precisely what squatter masquerading modern are hinging on. The hypocrisy is obvious. It is arrogance of the mediocre elite that they can dictate terms of engagement as it suits them. Clearly things have changed, and they are tugging on international strings to gain credence. The nation-state will respond if it feels that its internal affairs are being unwarrantedly prodded on and exaggerated by interest groups. Balance is necessary. In the meanwhile…PM Modi should break his silence on pertinent issues like for instance why are Anglo-Indians nominated to Rajya Sabha. What is so special about them? Indeed on what basis was such provision granted?

There are some mischief makers sucking under the garb of conscientious NGO, they delve in cities sucking and cannibalising on genuine NGOs who are doing tremendous work at the grassroot level. These therefore try to gain credence at the international level with their manipulation and decibel sweetness. The one at Sirifort learned lessons by understanding about lice (ridiculous), a clear case of person being planted (hence reaping the benefits) than one is genuinely involved. It is a Gandhian moment. Gandhi wouldn’t have known about discrimination if he wasn’t pushed out of plush compartment in South Africa, which he had comfortably ensconced as part of entitlement. The ordained world he carried from India. Amazing is it not!! That he spent all his life in India without realizing discrimination is truly impressive. If he was born little later I would have speculated that he lived in the lovely world of Malgudi!! More than ‘Gandhi would be shocked’ (Obama), I am finding more reasons to be ‘shocked by Gandhi’, indeed Gandhians truly amazes me. Always do. As the learned Judge pontificates ‘Hinduism is way of life’. Ghar wapsi is absolute nonsense but those highbrow high angst types protesting against are what makes it groovy. Truly homecoming of scoundrel squatters.
 
O dear O dear. Take it easy Mister Rushdie

Bhalchandra Nemade is a respected writer, who is recently awarded the highest literary award in the country, he has his views, and is mostly right on. Clearly English is a killer language, it is a well-documented fact. English writer, despite low readership and quality, gets more share because of market, and in Indian context some amazingly mediocre English writers are exaggerated because of this very reason.Though I consider Naipaul writer of highest order, as also brilliantly incisive. Rushdie should take it easy, it was coming his way for some time now. Wasn’t he who a decade or two back grandly condemned Indian non English writers (protest were dismissed as ‘sprightly’). Obviously chickens are coming home to roost, the tap from Aunt Elzi is of no help. Dear me, dear me, what thou has cometh to thee world!!! More than Nemade not reading Rushdie it is whether Rushdie has read Nemade? Bravo Mr Nemade we would like to hear more from you.
