the Prankster

(33% dark, 15% spontaneous, 26% vulgar)


your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | LIGHT




Your humor has an intellectual, even conceptual slant to it. You're not pretentious, but you're not into what some would call 'low humor' either. You'll laugh at a good dirty joke, but you definitely prefer something clever to something moist.

You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor because it's smart without being mean-spirited.

The Erotic Literature Assignment.

This is the price I pay for trying to be a friggin smartass in English Class. I landed a 1000 word essay on Erotic Literature from Arulster for calling out Erotica as a genre of Literature in his class. Apprently, I shouldn't have mentioned that I got inspired from his website. Aajkal sachchai ka bol-bala khatam hi ho gaya hai!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Literotica : A journey through time.

They say that the most primal and innate instinct or action of man is Fornication (yeah, marriage is just a license to screw). After all, life is defined by a multitude of biologists as ‘Preservation and Propagation of DNA’. When humans moved on from eating raw flesh and savagely assaulting each other for petty things like sleeping space, and settled down in communities, the first thing they did; other than fornicate; was develop a means of communication. Writing began. When humans realized that they could use their cerebrum for things other than running, walking, jumping, eating, screwing and screaming, they sought to invest their intellect in constructive writing. They began writing to chronicle their civilisation’s progress, events, facts, discoveries and legends. Some of them specialised in writing, and when they became jobless, literature came into being. Imagination took flight into various realms; realms of heroic valour, realms of love, realms of creativity and Natural Philosophy. How could the most primal instinct of man be left behind?

Who said the Indian Civilisation looks upon sex as something that shouldn’t be blatantly exhibited, otherwise some unknown booming voice from the heavens will render you unable to reproduce? The most celebrated and ancient of erotic literature is from our land; the land of Tantric Sex. Although Vatsyayana wrote the Kama Sutra in the 4th Century AD, its roots can be traced back to a certain bull-written, legend-infested manuscript called the Kama Shastra, allegedly compiled by Nandi the Bull, after hearing the not too subtle lovemaking between Lord Shiva and Parvati. It passed between quite a few centuries and hands before Dattaka composed a work on courtesans, on which Vatsyayana based his epic treatise.

On careful perusal of the Mahabharata, you will encounter various erotic references. Of course, you’ll have to be corrupt of mind and filthy of thought to come across them...yeah, I have indeed come across them, draw your own conclusions. There are vivid descriptions of Krishna courting Gopikas and his misdemeanour, the birth of Karna and the other Pandavas, the Arjuna – Subhadra saga, the conception of Babruvahana in the kingdom of Manipura, Arjuna’s night of passion with the Snake Princess and other such references. Not to mention, of course, Duryodhana’s lecherous advances towards Draupadi and numerous other such passages which would qualify as early, subtle erotica.

Not much of eroticism was seen in literature until the dawn of the Romantic Era. Although Shakespeare’s plays are simple to comprehend at one glance, they are swathed in multiple layers of complexly webbed emotions. Eroticism is one of them. Examine the behaviour of a voyeuristic and pandering Puck in ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ where he is flummoxed by the fact of lack of passionate lovemaking among humans when they are able to do it; or the adolescent cravings of a not-yet-fourteen Juliet in Romeo and Juliet when she says, ‘If he be married, my grave is like to be my marriage bed’. This particular verse is very compelling upon the belief that Shakespeare was a damned pervert –

Give me my Romeo; and when he shall die
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of Heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

In Anthony and Cleopatra, Shakespeare embarks on a very vivid account of how Cleopatra exacts the virgin-like virility and enthusiasm of Anthony, by not being straightforward, but manipulative and seductive.

Other women cloy
The appetites they feed, but she makes hungry
Where most she satisfies; for vilest things
Become themselves in her, that the holy priests
Bless her when she is riggish.

Virtually every Shakespearean heroine from Rosalind and Viola to Helena is endowed with pro-active sexual desire and has as well the courage and dedication to pursue her own erotic ends. It is left to anti-heroines, like Ophelia, Gertrude, Lady Macbeth etc to act coy and submissive, tacitly denying their sexual autonomy along with their individual responsibility.

In the Victorian Era, the non-committal and snobbish English Genteel rebuffed blatant exhortation of sexuality and erotica. Though most writers restricted their hormones from spilling over into their books, some of them flouted norms and wrote with a disdain. Jane Eyre’s burning desire for Rochester’s flesh is very artistically weaved in Charlotte Bronte’s masterpiece, though, fearing societal reactions, she chose to publish the book under an ambiguously androgynous pseudonym, Currer Bell. When the stiff upper-lipped Victorian Era drew to a close and firmly implanted the ideals of Realism in Literature, writers like Oscar Wilde, D H Lawrence and James Joyce rose to the forefront of literature, with heavy sexual undertones in their novels. Indeed, such was Lawrence’s reputation after the publication of ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ that he came to be known more as a verbal pornographer wasting his brilliant literary skills, than as a novelist of gifted repute. James Joyce’s magnum opus Ulysses had to undergo an obscenity trial, before being acclaimed by the critique conglomerate.

By the 18th century, Erotic Fiction as a separate genre had started to take shape. Though they occupy a mainstream literary slot, they often fall short of the quality of more serious literature. Though, towards the end of the 19th century, a more 'cultured' form of erotica began to appear. This was associated with the Decadents, in particular, with Aubrey Beardsley and the Yellow Book. But it was also to be found in France, amongst such writers as Pierre Louis, author of the 'Chanson de Bilitis' (a celebration of lesbianism and sexual awakening).

In the 20th Century, many pulp fiction authors tend to lace their novels with heavy doses of sex and eroticism, that it sometimes becomes tough to draw a line between Erotica, Romanticism and the like. Harold Robbins and Sidney Sheldon are noted for vivid sexual imagery in their work. Mario Puzo illustrates erotica and lovemaking as a very basic need of man, using the Italian principles and society as a backdrop, highlighting the egotistic connotation of eroticism among the Mafia. Mills and Boon novels masquerade as Romance Fiction, while all the time they vulgarly disrobe the female form and use her as an abject model for the quenching of sexual thirst. And then there are the numerous ha’ penny books that come under the huge umbrella of cheap press, which do not even merit a discussion, thank you very much. My suggestion is, go to any old bookstall which sells dime novels by the dozen and experience them yourselves.

Although I am not very familiar with Indian writing, there seems to be a very fine sense of balanced eroticism among the modern Indian writers in English. Khushwant Singh is notorious for his risqué humour and obsession with the female form. ‘In The Company of Women’ is a book that he wrote when he was in his late 80s. Viagra companies need to ascertain the secret of his ripeness. R K Narayan very poignantly used sex to illustrate the importance of it between married couples in the Indian Society.

Mikhail will continue about the development of Erotica in the 20th Century.

Fantasy lover? ME? Aiyyoo!

Okay, this is really really hilarious. Please don't laugh while beating your arse in public.

Your Seduction Style: Fantasy Lover

You know that ideal love that each of us dreams of from childhood? That's you!
Not because you posess all of the ideal characteristics, but because you are a savvy shape shifter.
You have the uncanny ability to detect someone's particular fantasy... and make it you.

You inspire each person to be an idealist and passionate, and you make each moment memorable
Even a simple coffee date with you can be the most romantic moment of someone's life
By giving your date exactly what he or she desires, you quickly become the ideal lover.

Your abilities to make dreams come true is so strong, that you are often the love of many people's lives.
Your ex's (and even people you have simply met or been friends with) long to be yours.
No doubt you are the one others have dreamed of... your biggest challenge is finding *your* dream lover.




Right...can I now go back to my work please?

Quizzes...What age art thou? Score and eleven. Pah

I took this quiz which could apparently calculate my mental age, by a series of logistics that only an eccentric with his head in place of his posterior, would understand. Fantastically, it returned this result -

You Are 31 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.



All I can say is - WHAT F***** BALLS??!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then I took this English test which would apparently test my grip over the heathen language -

Your English Skills:

Grammar: 100%
Vocabulary: 100%
Punctuation: 80%
Spelling: 80%


Right...so some American test will now certify my English? I reiterate - What effing balls??!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Addicted to Love eh? Please clarify the kind - Platonic, Romantic or simply and stupidly - Freudian.

You Are 36% Addicted to Love

Might as well face it, you're a little addicted to love.
You won't do anything for love, but sometimes you do more than you should.
No one's worth losing your head for - because in the end you'll only lose your heart.
Don't avoid falling in love. Just make sure you don't get too hooked.


Now this is one test that's actually come close to deciphering one aspect of 'me'. Kudos.

More Trouble - That's my life.

Well, I just get out of that cell phone theft mess satisfactorially, and I get into more trouble!

1) My cell fone got flicked in a bus. I saw the guy get off, so I jumped out of the running bus turning a corner and ran behind him around a mile. But he had disappeared. Ah well, damnit, what can I do? Dad's getting a new cell.

2) Wanted to take part in the antakshari competition at Pratibha, the Interclass fest. My team and I were dead sure of not only qualifying the prelims, but even about winning the thing. As it had to happen to me, the venue got changed at the last moment. We were actually having a class in the Multipurpose Hall before the break; the contest was to happen in the MP hall in the break. Then were flitted here and there trying to get information. When we finally reached the room to which it had been shifted to, it was 1.20 and we were 20 mins late. I tried to reason with the Student Co-ordinator, and she was quite rude. Couldn't let go of the matter that lightly, so went to reason with the Teacher Co-ord. She gave us permission. Started doing the written test. It was a SAD test. We could've scored 15/15 on that. We had gotten in Ques 9 in 5 mins, when this student co-ord bursts in all in a rage and accuses us of sneaking, cheating and lying. I told her to calm down, listen to reason and work things out. She wouldn't. Tried to show attitude as a senior, commanding a junior to lick her boots. I told her, I don't give a damn about her being a senior (not in those words...puhleeese) and went to talk to the Teacher Co-ord. Apparently, one guy had gone and lied about my team's and my behaviour and that was what had caused the ruckus. My friends came to my rescue. Supposedly, after I left the room to talk to the TC, the SC had called me a 'Bastard' and a 'Son of a Bitch'. The TC heard me and friends out, and told me she'd work things out. Today, apparently, the girl apologised, and we sorted out matters and things are all okay now. Hehe.

3) On saturday, which was sports day, Vip wanted a ride on the bike and Din wanted to ride it. I gave him the keys. Grave Mistake. They didn't turn up even after 25 mins, and Din is an amateur rider who doesn't have a DL. I messaged him from Kiddie's cell, and then he calls back saying he's met with an accident! I didn't believe him, though Kiddie pulled me to go looking for them. On Langford road, we kept calling Din, and all he said was 'keep walking straight'. I smelled a rat, and after an argument, Kiddie and I turned back. Grave Mistake 2. They called again, and I noted the note of panic in their voices. By this time, Shank had reached the spot and taken them to Hosmat Hospital for first aid. Kiddie and I rushed to where my bike was, a mile and a half down Langford Road.

It was pathetically mangled. The front fairing was fully smashed, the wheel bent and twisted, the suspension bend, mirrors cracked and smashed, fuel tank partly smashed in, front panel dis-aligned...you can imagine. My uncle reached the spot, so did Din't brother. They've taken the responsibility and they're doing the necessary work. Grateful to them. I don't think my darling Unicorn will ever look beautiful again and will ever be as powerful again. Just hope she survives!

More so, I was pulled up really badly and unnecessarily by my granny for what happened. Honestly, for a man of my temperament, logic and energy...it's becoming a pain living with her. No mistake, I love her lots. But I really am not able to concentrate on my work, what with jogging and gym in the morning, then 8 hours of college, music honours class on weekends and other such stuff to keep me occupied.

4) So I am moving out. I have started looking for an accomodation and have talked to Vishnu. When we find a suitable accomodation in Jayanagar 4th T Block, 5th Block or 7th and 8th block itself, we'll move in, on a shared basis.

Nice no? I think I should be directing a soap opera of my life. Amazing things happen. Trouble finds me invariably. Maybe I should marry it. Wot Say?

The Case of the Missing Cell Phone - Part III

Tuesday morning dawned fine and fresh. I drove to the Hotel during breakfast time and asked around if the SI had dropped in for his daily free gift. They directed me to the nearest party hall saying he had informed them that he'd be there.

Once there, the SI started talking to me. Ever seen a drill bore into wood? Poor thing, this wood didn't protest too...
And then at the end, he declares he's lost the Notice. What a chap! But he assured me he'd get my license back the next day. I drove back home to park my bike and take a rickshaw down to uncle's office. While I was about to start from home, I got a call. The conversation went something like this -

Person : Hi Abhilash, Vaishnavi here...
Me : Yes?
Person : So are you coming to the police station?
Me : Yes I will. I am right now going to my uncle's place, and then from there we'll go and talk to our lawyer and reach the police station
Person : Why do you want a lawyer? You haven't been accused of anything!
Me : Oh yeah? And the police sent that notice because they were jobless and wanted to screw around with random students, right?
Person : No! They sent you that notice because they wanted to talk to you.
Me : Why? How did my name get involved?
Person : Here talk to my mother...
Person's Mother : Hello Abhilash? This is Vaishnavi's mother speaking. My daughter has lost her cell fone and she says it's been stolen. The police are investigating it. Can you tell me anything about it?
Me : Madam, I do not wish to make any statements to you without my lawyer being present.
Person's Mother - Look, you don't need to get a lawyer...
Me : Why? Yesterday your daughter called me and accused me of stealing her fone. She didn't realise the implications of doing so. She can't do that when legalities are involved. Maybe she did it out of anxiety or immaturity. I can sue her for false accusations and trust me, if she keeps on like this, I'll be tempted to do it. How did my name get involved in this business?
Person's Mother : She did it only out of anxiety. It's the third cell fone she's lost and she doesn't want to lose this one too. See, after the theft, the thief made one call from the stolen fone, and that is to your cell fone. That's how the police traced you. When they called you, you didn't come to the station. So they served a notice against you.
Me : Ok, I get it. I'll be there, the day after tomorrow in the morning at 9. Please be there.
Person's Mother : Right. Thanks. If she's said something harsh or wrong to you, we'll apologise.
Me : Can I talk to vaishnavi please?
Person : Yeah tell me...
Me : How and where did you lose your cell fone?
Person : Well, I was in the library and I had kept my cell fone in my bag and gone to a desk to study. Your class was there. When I came back, someone had flicked my fone.
Me : Hmm...ok, we'll settle it tomorrow. Be there.
Person : Ok. Thanks.
Me : Thanks. Bye.

Now things were beginning to get clear. So the girl wasn't deliberately trying to frame me. Someone had placed a call to me from the stolen cell fone. That means, it had to be someone who knew me....hmmm.

Then suddenly, that fone call, which I recieved a fortnight ago in the canteen, struck me. It might just be possible that this was placed from the cell fone. And the person asked for Chinmoy. Which means that the person knew both Chinmoy and Me.

I tried to connect the events of the day. I asked Niraja to remember what day I had gotten the call. She confirmed it was two weeks ago. Then it started to fall into place. Our class was in the library. Meaning, it had to be a free lecture....Bhaskar sir was absent the whole of that week, and his lecture was free. Which only meant one thing - Someone from our class had either stolen it, or was involved as an accomplice.

Things were looking bad. I had this plan in mind to narrow down the person, if it didn't turn out to be someone from my class (she'd be let into the class to see if she could identify the chor)

1) Attendence records of the 3 lectures would be compared...especially the one before the chemistry lecture and the one after the chemistry lecture.
2) Library records would be compared.

Something had to turn up there. It was with this plan in mind I went to college next day, with my uncle, to hold a preliminary round of talks with the girl and my class mentor. That day, she revealed some more things to us, which rendered my plan useless...and complicated the business. Hmmm....

A Tribute to Ust. Bismillah Khan - The Greatest Legend





Ustad Bismillah Khan passes away

HindustanTimes.com

New Delhi, August 21, 2006

Shehnai maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan passed away due to a heart attack in Varanasi early morning on Monday. He was 91.

Khan, who was hospitalised and put on intravenous drip after a brief illness, breathed his last at 3.30 in the morning.

He had been admitted to the Heritage Hospital in the city on Thursday after his health reportedly started deteriorating following illness.

Born on March 21, 1916, Khan was awarded the Bharat Ratna in 2001.

He was also honoured with the Sangeet Natak Academi Award, the Tansen Award and the prestigious Padma Vibhushan.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The legendary Indian shehnai maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan Sahib (born 21 March 1916) is the third classical musician to be awarded the Bharat Ratna (in 2001), the highest civilian honour in India. The term "Ustad" or "Pandit" in relation to Indian classical music implies Master or Guru. Bismillah Khan is perhaps single handedly responsible for making the shehnai a famous classical instrument.

His ancestors were court musicians in the princely state of Dumraon in Bihar and he trained under his uncle, the late Ali Bux `Vilayatu’, a shehnai player attached to Benares's Vishwanath Temple. He brought the shehnai to the center stage of Indian music with his concert in the Calcutta All India Music Conference in 1937. It was Khan Sahib who poured his heart out into Raga Kafi from the Red Fort on the eve of India’s first Republic Day ceremony.

Khan has honorary doctorates from the Banaras Hindu University and Visva Bharati University, Santiniketan. He has been awarded the Sangeet Natak Academi Award, the Tansen Award of the Madhya Pradesh government and also the prestigious Padma Vibhushan.

Despite his fame, Khan's lifestyle retains its old world Benares charm. His chief mode of transport is still the cycle rickshaw. A man of tenderness, he believes in remaining private, and that musicians are supposed to be heard and not seen. He is a pious Shia Muslim and also, like many Indian musicians regardless of creed, a devotee of Mother Saraswati.

Hazaron rang-e-mehfil mein teri shehnai ke bose naseeb hue they,
Jannat tujhe ada hui hai tu jannat ko nahin,

Teri rooh yahan goonj bankar reh gai hai. (Abhilash)


Rest in Peace Khan Saheb.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My sincere condolences. He was a true Bharat Ratna. Unarguably the greatest of all the classical musicians in India living and dead. His musical knowledge was such that other greats would blush in front of him. His shehnai emnated such power that would be the envy of every single musician worldwide.

But looking at his condition and living circumstances in the past decade, death was, I think, better for him. He won't suffer anymore at the hand of our petty government and public which pays the same enumeration for Abhijeet Sawant and Pt. Jasraj.

Rest in peace, Khan Sahib. Entertain the celestials wherever you are. Our pithy world doesn't deserve your divine symphonies.

Kho gai khushboo hawa mein kuch na reh gaya....

The Case of the Missing Cell Phone - Part II

The description of the girl they gave me, matched 99% with a girl we knew as 'Greeno'. There's an interesting story behind her. On the first day of college, Abhishek, Chinmoy and I were dejectedly loafing around cursing the fact that there were no hot chicks on campus. And in walks this Greeno lady from the ground. She had fine thick hair, an unblemished pretty striking sharp face, and a cute petite frame. And those killer kajal lined eyes. She had worn a green t-shirt, so we christened her 'Greeno'. Hehe.

So I requested my friend Sophia to find out whether Greeno had lost her cell fone, and whether the girl actually fit the description. The most striking thing was, the accent. They branded hers as a 'stylish heavy accent'. Greeno talks in a heavy american accent. But Greeno had NOT lost a cell fone. Interesting.

And the girl hadn't contacted me yet...and there was a notice for interrogation against my name. There was only two logical surmises -

1) When the girl gave her missing cell fone number, maybe the cop took it down wrong and it somehow turned out to be my number.
2) The girl, might be trying to frame me. There have been rackets reported in the city where free-spending teens, suddenly finding themselves broke and incapable of financing their lavish life styles, have resorted to blackmail and false-theft rackets.

What was the chance that 1 would be probable? Very less. My uncle thought it was 2, and we decided to contact a couple of cops and also consult our lawyers. First thing on monday, I decided I'd drive down to my uncle's office and then move on to another uncle of mine for a round table conference...hehe. He's wired into many cops and lawyers in the city and has experience in such matters...uh...uh.

While driving down to my uncle's office, my cell fone buzzed. I stopped and took the call. The conversation went something like this -

Person - Hello, is this Abhilash? (female, stylish accent)
Me : Yeah, may I know who's talking?
Person : Who's talking??? I am the girl you stole the cell fone from!
Me : Okaaaay...and you are?
Person : I am Vaishnavi...where's my cell fone?
Me : Lady, first of all calm down. I don't know you, I haven't seen you, I haven't met you. How can I steal your cell fone?
Person : I don't know. You didn't come to the Police station when Inspector Kashi called you. You recieved a call from my stolen fone and don't deny that. This is the fourth cell fone I've lost and I am not letting it go. It was a Motorazor. Do you know how expensive it was?
Me : I won't deny, I won't accept anything until and unless my lawyer's present. And I won't talk to you until you calm down.
Person : If you don't appear at the thana, I'll send cops down to your place.
Me (cold and soft) : Look, cops won't get to my place and you'll make sure of it. My granny lives alone and is a heart patient. If anything happens to her, you'll regret it. I am going to the station with my uncle and lawyer, relax till then.
Person : Uh..oh ok, come to the thana then, we'll talk.

Two things struck me.

1) This girl is logically challenged. If I recieved a call from the stolen fone, how could I have stolen it? Would I be foolish enough to steal a cell fone, give it to a friend of mine, and ask him to call me from it? Heights of absurdity. And her parents...gosh, she loses 3 cell fones and the 4th one she gets is a machine that costs 20 Grand!

2) The possibility that the cop has made a mistake, can be entirely ruled out, since she knew my number. So we considered no.2 and proceeded further.

My uncle and I proceeded to college and had a chat with my class mentor and HOD. They conveyed that they were shocked that such an allegation had been levelled against me and they'd certainly try and help. They advised us to get a lawyer and settle things soon, and if need be, teach the girl a lesson, if indeed she was deliberately trying to frame me. Then we met the Principal. Here, one more thing came to light.
The girl, apparently had violated the college protocol and had gone straight to the police, instead of submitting a letter to the Extension Officer and informing the principal. Since she had not come to him, he couldn't summon the girl and interrogate her. I somehow got the feeling Father was not really willing to wet his hands. But he certainly had a point, and we couldn't argue. So we took leave.

We went to my other uncle's office in Gandhi Bazar and had a lengthy chat and deliberated, argued and analysed every point. With the information we had then, it was clear to us that it was a case of either blackmail or framing a crime with malicious intent, for which the girl could be pulled up in Court. We decided to keep a couple of cops 'informed' and also consult a lawyer. Deepti's dad is an advocate. So I asked her whether my aunt and I could meet her dad and consult him. She said that he dealt exclusively with civil cases, but told us he would see us. We visited him in his office and discussed the case with him. He also was of the same opinion as my uncle, and advised us to consult either Adv. C V Nagesh or Subramaniam Jois, both of whom were reputed attorneys and known to us. Nagesh is by far the most powerful attorney in town. We decided to get his counsel. Unfortunately, he was involved in a serious case, and after discussing aunt's previous case with her, he gave us preliminary counsel and ushered us out.
We decided to give the matter rest for the night.

What information I got the next morning was really unforeseen and radical. But it made things seem even more logical and made many things very clear.

The Case of the Missing Cell Phone - Part I

Hello people.

I am stopping the Time-Energy paradox series now to post a series of posts...an incident which, of all people, happened to me. Hehe, nothing suprising...I am ALWAYS in some kind of trouble. But I manage to get out of it allright, thank God! More often than not, I am usually the wrong person, in the wrong place at the wrong time. I somehow feel Life tests my resilience a LOT, and I can tell life straight in its face - Look dude, I haven't lost. I've never lost. Stop trying!

This time, I've been dragged into a Cell Phone theft, not of my own accord; have been served a notice for interrogation by the police, have tried playing a hand in deducing the sequence of events of the theft, and have succeeded in narrowing down the field of enquiry to a much smaller circle. I am posting the story in parts. Read and EnJoY!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, it all began one fine afternoon last month. The sixteenth day of July, the seventh month of the 2006th year after Christ was born. The plan was that I meet Dinesh at the Majestic Theatre, with my Uncle, and we go tramping along on Avenue road, peeking into the cramped, musty bookstores, looking at various course books. Well, it so happened that I reached my granny's place five minutes late. My uncle is a stickler for time, and he started berating me. I had a genuine reason for being late - My cousin sister chose that very hour to drop in and conceal herself in the toilet, doing God knows what. He wouldn't listen to my reason; so I stormed out of the house and decided to go by myself. Mistake No.1

Near Ulsoor Gate limits, they have installed a traffic signal in the stupidest manner possible. The Zebra crossing and the Yellow line are on one side of the cross road that intersects the main road, which after 15 metres divides into two and also has another traffic signal! The signal is on the other side. I was crusing along at 60 kmph and coolly eased into the left lane and crossed the yellow line. I missed the signal. But then, i suddenly saw the signal flashing red, and braked immediately like the dutiful citizen I am...hehe...and my bike skid. Mistake No.2. There were four cops there, and one Sub Inspector fined me 300 bucks then and there. I had 27 in my wallet. He served me a notice to pay the fine at a later date. He also confiscated my License.

Dinesh and I merrily loafed around the area, had hot crisp masala doasa at one of the oldest hotels in Bangalore and I then came back home. I thought I'd go on a saturday and clear the matter up. That saturday never came.

My mother arrived in Bangalore on the 24th of July. Now, we have a hotel in JP Nagar, of which I am a partner...i.e...my mother is one of the investing partner, but I carry out official duties on her part. We have a traffic cop, an SI, on our payroll there. My mum, in all her earnestness, stormed into my room, extracted the notice out of my wallet and gave it to him to retrieve my license. I did not know the SI's name, not had his number, nor had spoken to him. And, there was no copy of the notice. Mistake No. 3.

A few days later, we were all sitting in the canteen, when my cell fone buzzed. The conversation went like this -

Person : Is it Abhilash?
Me : Yeah
Person : Are you Chinmoy's friend?
Me : Yeah
Person : Is he around?
Me : No
Person : Where has he gone?
Me : I dunno
Person : When will he be back?
Me : I dunno. May I know who's speaking?
Person : I am Chinmoy's friend.
Me : Ah...(Mental Note - Take chin to task for giving my number to his darned friends)
Then the person asked various details regarding Chinmoy's practical timings, etc etc etc. I answered only in monosyllables...the result being the entire gang laughing at my taciturn method of speech. The converstaion, thus, got filed away in some spidery corner of my brain for future reference. I asked Chin about the call when he came back, but apparently, to this day, he has no idea who had called. The call had gone on for about 3 minutes.

That same day in the evening, i got a missed call on my cell fone. I sent an SMS back asking who it was. Two days later, when I was in the bus, the same number called. The conversation went on like this -

Person : Hello. I recieved an SMS saying 'Who is this' from your number. May I know who's this?
Me : I had gotten a missed call from your cell, so I sent the SMS
Person : I am an Inspector of Police, talking. May I know whom I am talking to?
Me : I am a student of St. Joseph's College. (I connected this cop to 'our' cop)
Me : Sir, are you familiar with Nimantran Hotel?
Person : Uh...huh...
Me : Sir, do you know the owner ?
Person : Uh huh Yeah. Who's talking?
Me : (dropping my guard). Sir, I am Abhilash from St. Joseph's. I am the owner's nephew. She had given you a notice requesting you to get the license released. How far have you gotten?
Person : St. Joseph's? Ah good! Which course?
Me : I B.Sc MCZ
Person : MCZ....uh...Mathematics, Chemistry Zoology?
Me : No, Microbiology.
Person : Ah..
Me : Sir, have you managed to get my license?
Person : Yeah, come to ASHOK NAGAR thane and get it.
Me : Thanks, I'll be there...(suspiciously)

Whole conversation = Mistake No. 4

I became wary. My license was at Ulsoor Gate. Our 'SI' was at JP Nagar. How the hell did Ashok Nagar figure here? I surmised it might've been some mistake, and I forgot about it. Totally. And, I didn't show up at Ashok Nagar. Cardinal Mistake. The date, most probably, was the 3rd or the 4th of August.

On the 9th of August, I bunked the first half of college because -

1) I had nearly 100% attendence
2) Had to study for the upcoming exams, starting from the 10th
3) My sister was ill...and my aunt and uncle were busy with the Hotel

When I went to college in the afternoon, I was informed that I was a 'Wanted' man...by three people -

1) The Extension Officer
2) A professor
3) our HOD madam

Since we had practicals that day, I couldn't go. Mistake No. 5.

The next day onwards, we had exams for three days. On the 11th, Rodriguez, our Extension Officer gave me the dope - A girl had lost her mobile phone on campus. Rather, it was stolen. The police had come THRICE on campus, served a notice to the Principal, asking for my custody for interrogation. The principal had abused them saying, while he's the principal, no student of his would be arrested or detained by the Police.

Here comes the interesting part. The girl was supposedly from I HEP, Bachelor of ARTS. They hesitated in giving me her name, so they stalled me off my giving me her description. I knew they wouldn't want to, so I desisted from pressing them for details.
Here starts the fun. I had never seen or met the girl in my life.

An Abstract Fabric - Feeling Pathos

Hello All.

I had written this poem near the end of last year when everything seemed to go wrong...the course I was in wasn't going on well due to problems at the University, my health wasn't good, had lost touch with my favourite game, had parted ways, not too amicably, with a very dear and close friend due to mutual foolishness and high headedness...ah well....just read on.

It’s Been Quite Long A Journey

Seems a while, seems certainly a little while....

I take up my pen to write, write what?

Words fail me; I know not what to write....

Is it that memories shroud memories?

Are the ghosts of my past way-laying emotions?

Words fail me; I know not what to write.


Seems a while, seems certainly a while....

I finger my piano, to render what?

Chords fail me; I know not what to play....

Is it that complacency restricts symphony?

Are my past blunders taunting my present?

Chords fail me; I know not what to play.


Seems a while, seems certainly a while....

I look out my window, to see what?

It breezes no more; I know not what to feel

Is it that nature has sensed my apprehension?

Are the forces making me atone for deeds undone?

It breezes no more; I know not what to feel.


Seems a while, seems certainly a while....

I try to delve deep; to remember what?

Pictures fail me; I know not what to see...

Is love taking precedence to reason and instinct?

Are vices taking charge of Faith, long committed?

Pictures fail me; I know not what to see.


Yes, it has certainly been a while,

Memories, I hold near to my heart...

All along in this hike over the brambly path of life

They sole my feet and bind my heart,

Against the cold....the cold of darkness,

Which comes along thick and crisp now...

I can hear the wind howling ominously,

I can sense the mist come down stiflingly,

Blanketing the hard cold earth on which I lie.

Waiting and waiting....for what? I know not.

And yet I wait. Is this not the irony of existence?

This sense of Deja vu? What goes up must come down?

Yes, it seems a while, seems certainly a while

In search of unifying time and energy - Part III

Hello People.

Took some time in the coming...eh? Well, this is a convo I had with a friend on Yahoo Messenger again. He's a second year Engg Student in Bombay....and mad about pure physics.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

krish_r123u: i really hope sometimes i could have time to do some physics... i just cannot resist to have a go at quantising time and distance
abhilashdwarakanath: i believe we can quantise time
abhilashdwarakanath: and when we do, we'd have found an answer to the universe's beginning
abhilashdwarakanath: quantising in the sense, giving a physical and tangible identity to time
abhilashdwarakanath: as a dimension
abhilashdwarakanath: and a function of the continuum
krish_r123u: a function... isnt it THE continuum?
abhilashdwarakanath: that's what they believe
abhilashdwarakanath: :D
abhilashdwarakanath: they call it the space-time continuum
abhilashdwarakanath: i don't believe space and time are a related fabric
abhilashdwarakanath: i believe time and energy are manifestations of some superior thing, or they're simply different forms of one another. If we try to theoretically analyse and deduce the inter-relationship between mass-energy and time, it takes you into a vicioius circle. Mass and Energy are forms of one another, energy is a function of space-time, which means energy would be a function of time, which would means we should be able to quantise time. But then, in a relativistic sense, everything in this world moves in a time frame of its own, and the most fundamental energy-carrying particles we know are time-independent...i.e. time means nothing to them...they're in a suspended state of animation in time.
abhilashdwarakanath: when we prove time is equatable to energy, i'd believe we'd have gotten close to deciphering the primal particle...or virtual particle of the Universe.
abhilashdwarakanath: :)
krish_r123u: it is equatable
krish_r123u: i have been able to get that far..
krish_r123u: *equivalent
abhilashdwarakanath: krish, if that's true...then you're sitting on a Nobel Prize :P
krish_r123u: i wish
krish_r123u: ok
krish_r123u: here is the proof
abhilashdwarakanath: the thing is...is your math correct?
krish_r123u: if you are itnerested
krish_r123u: *interested
abhilashdwarakanath: coz i had done to too...and my math was all f**** up. Lost the whole thing when my hard disk crashed. :(
krish_r123u: it is... i know how to divide and multiply
abhilashdwarakanath: yup, i am interested
krish_r123u: it is very simple math actually
abhilashdwarakanath: *math
krish_r123u: i think somebody else would have already done it
abhilashdwarakanath: not yet
krish_r123u: ok, T = To/(1 - v^2/c^2)^1/2... M = Mo/(1 - v^2/c^2)^1/2 ... and E = Mc^2... at any state of an object to consider M and T, v is a constant... multiply c^2 on both sides of equation 2 and divide by equation 1
krish_r123u: assume at one joule, time is one second
abhilashdwarakanath: ok......
krish_r123u: what do you get?
krish_r123u: let Mc^2 = E and Moc^2 be Eo
abhilashdwarakanath: ok...
abhilashdwarakanath: listen, with which frame of reference are you keeping v const?
krish_r123u: it will make sense when you divide
krish_r123u: those equations are relativistic. you can keep any reference frame
krish_r123u: i think
abhilashdwarakanath: no
abhilashdwarakanath: you have to specify
krish_r123u: there is no absolute reference frame?
abhilashdwarakanath: no dude
abhilashdwarakanath: how can there be?
krish_r123u: yes
krish_r123u: there isnt
krish_r123u: those equations are derived from that
abhilashdwarakanath: the very concept of relativity is to render obsolete absoluteness and simultanity
krish_r123u: so how does it matter what reference frame am i taking? it could be the motion of any two objects with respect to each other... whatever the reference frame, the relative velocity v is constant... and well, that gets omitted when you divide
abhilashdwarakanath: hmm....
krish_r123u: ok
krish_r123u: you want the final expression?
abhilashdwarakanath: yeah
krish_r123u: ok... one minute..
krish_r123u: T/E = To/Eo
krish_r123u: therefore T is proportional to E
krish_r123u: you got it?
abhilashdwarakanath: we aren't looking at proportionality
abhilashdwarakanath: we are looking at equality
krish_r123u: it isnt equal
krish_r123u: just proportional
abhilashdwarakanath: one more thing...relativity is flawed :D
krish_r123u: so i said equavalent
krish_r123u: oh wow NOW you tell me
abhilashdwarakanath: Quantum Mechanics is correct to a degree more than that of Relativity. Relativity and QM both together explain about 90% of the physical laws, but then both contradict each other...heavens! Couldn't God have made a simpler world??! :|
krish_r123u: but the equation i got describes many things... from mythology to slowing of time
krish_r123u: in experiments
krish_r123u: now listen to another thing
abhilashdwarakanath: relativity explained a lot too
abhilashdwarakanath: but how would you explain the acceleration of an EM pulse to 300 times the speed of light?
abhilashdwarakanath: how can it explain creation of matter and energy?
abhilashdwarakanath: QVF?
abhilashdwarakanath: ZPE?
abhilashdwarakanath: it can't
krish_r123u: from the proportionality, T =(To/Eo) E... now for To and Eo, you can take one joule and one second... that is why i said one joule for one second
krish_r123u: hmmm well these experiments... acceleration of other things besides light to greater than c... and stuff... that is when i started thinking twice about relativity
krish_r123u: if you take one and one, you get T = Ec^2
abhilashdwarakanath: relativity is flawed..as i said
krish_r123u: or rather..
krish_r123u: E = c^2 T
abhilashdwarakanath: T = EC^2? :-?
krish_r123u: ..
abhilashdwarakanath: hmmm
krish_r123u: oh sorry damn...
krish_r123u: T = E
krish_r123u: simple
krish_r123u: one joule and one second
krish_r123u: ZPE is a seperate thing altogether... it has to do with the whole of energy itself
krish_r123u: i dont see how it contradicts relativity
abhilashdwarakanath: krish, it does
abhilashdwarakanath: imagine...ZPE speaks of a photon at rest
abhilashdwarakanath: a photon is at rest with respect to what?
abhilashdwarakanath: Relativity wants 2 frames of reference for rest and motion
abhilashdwarakanath: but the bloody photon is in a time-dilated state of its own
abhilashdwarakanath: time means nothing to a photon
abhilashdwarakanath: :D
krish_r123u: hm
krish_r123u: yes
krish_r123u: do you know about waves in a string?
krish_r123u: transverse waves?
krish_r123u: they travel at the same speed... all of them
abhilashdwarakanath: nope...have heard, but that's about it
krish_r123u: no matter what the amplitude or energy
krish_r123u: it just depends on the medium
krish_r123u: now energy, time, distance etc... must be properties of the *medium* through which the photon travels
krish_r123u: at the same speed, no matter whatever the energy
krish_r123u: i think it must be an analogy
abhilashdwarakanath: that's why i always hold Vaccuum isn't vaccuum
abhilashdwarakanath: NOBODY listens to me!!!! :|
krish_r123u: they ruled out ether i know... but i still think there is a medium
krish_r123u: they do
krish_r123u: atleast i know it isnt
krish_r123u: or scientists now know
krish_r123u: latest research into ZPE says just that
abhilashdwarakanath: yup
abhilashdwarakanath: casimir effect
abhilashdwarakanath: it isn't latest...1948.........but validated during the cold war...?
krish_r123u: casimir effect is old, i think.
krish_r123u: there are many later researches
krish_r123u: hmm validated in the 1960s if i am not wrong
krish_r123u: or did someone do it yesterday? :p
abhilashdwarakanath: let me tell you one more thing.......the famous M n M expt which brought relativity to the fore was a little flawed too :D
abhilashdwarakanath: not yesterday :))
krish_r123u: so ether exists?
krish_r123u: YAY !
abhilashdwarakanath: not aether....They had given Aether such properties that would've simply rendered Relativity wrong. Complete elasticity? Constantness of relative drag velocity? Ah...no, they were thinking on very ideal lines.
abhilashdwarakanath: but something
krish_r123u: M n M experiment ruled out the ether.
abhilashdwarakanath: i'd say a completely different manifestation of a primal virtual particle that would have certain...umm...comfortable properties. We cannot see light when it travels through vaccuum. We also, cannot 'see' dark energy or matter. Dark matter comprises 95% of the universe's matter. When the LHC is built at CERN, and they devise an experiment to validate the existence of the Higgs-Boson and the Higgs's field, I think they'll not be able to find it. I somehow, do not like the Higgs-Theory. I would in fact, bet my bottom dollar, on them finding a particle with properties similar and superior to that of the anti-particles that make up dark matter, which would also be in a time dilated state. That brings us to one very logical conclusion. We are looking, thus, at an anti-particle of the Photon. They call it, now, the Scaon. But according to Dirac, there should NOT be an anti-particle of the photon, because of it's time-independentness. Now, this thing contradicts Dirac too. We must remember that Dirac didn't know of Dark Matter at that time. Was there something missing in his theory?
krish_r123u: oh well, not ether with those properties... but a medium of some sort should exist for light to go through it
krish_r123u: ok
abhilashdwarakanath: which is the basis of the universe
krish_r123u: consider a string which is taut and is tied to one end. the other end is jerked... a wave travels. the transfer of energy is seen by the observer, but it is just the motion of particles in the string and so the energy is just transferred due to those particles... but the transfer of energy is what we observe
krish_r123u: the medium must be of some sort which cannot be distinguished... and neither light that travels through it can be distinguished unless it strikes another object
krish_r123u: cause it is the same medium...energy... spacetime..
krish_r123u: any disturbance of the medium causes a photon..
krish_r123u: there is another important thing i want to tell...
krish_r123u: ok. now hmm... i said in that proportionality equation... assume one second for one joule. i just assumed... it may not be valid. However you can get a valid figure. calculate the mass of a radioactive isotope, and also its half life. now... increase its KE, and calculate the half life again. Repeat this experiment till you get a satisfactory number of lines and plot a graph. if it is a straight line, then the two quantities are proportional and the constant is easily found...
krish_r123u: you can try this when you get particle accelerators
krish_r123u: it might give you the equation you wanted
krish_r123u: to unite time and energy..
krish_r123u: ..
krish_r123u: it is a known fact that the half life of a particle changes with energy..
krish_r123u: there?
krish_r123u: *satisfactory number of points..
krish_r123u: ..
abhilashdwarakanath: Krish, basic high school physics will tell you that Time and Energy are proportional because of Velocity dude!! It's simple math! Derive that from any basic relation for energy! We are not looking to compound the equivalence of Time and Energy. We are trying to UNIFY time and energy by EQUATING them to space-time as a function of themselves. We are basically looking to prove "matter and energy is created when in a certain primal perfect particle, time freezes and condenses and gives rise to it's sister form..i.e. energy due to the QM behaviour of the Quantum Field contained within itself, that which would act on Einstein's laws. We are looking to accelerate two different facets of that particle in different directions at the speed of light, which would dilate time to the maximum. Which in principle, means that this particle would infact, be a Boson...which is what the Higgs's particle is....though, the Higgs's field would in all actuality, be this field I mentioned above'.
abhilashdwarakanath: And before I start to contradict myself hopelessly, and get all my concepts wrong, I think I'll go out and get a breath of fresh air! See ya later!
krish_r123u: Ok..see u later!

In search of unifying time and energy - Part II

Well, Hello all.

Here's the promised next part in the series. It addresses the basic portion of what exactly ZPE is. I am posting it in isolation, and will connect it up with the first post in due time. This isn't actually an article, but an IM conversation over Yahoo Messenger with a friend.

PLEASE MAKE A NOTE OF THE FACT THAT MY UNDERSTANDING OF CONCEPTS MIGHT BE FLAWED AND WRONG. I HEREBY DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF YOUR PHYSICS PROFESSOR SCREWS YOU FOR HANDING IN A WRONG PAPER!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Juhi: zero point energy.........i wanna know more abt it
Abhi: simply put, it's the point where the velocity of a photon becomes zero
Abhi: that is, it is suspended in time
Abhi: but it shouldn't exist if it's velocity becomes zero
Abhi: because, after all, a photon is a virtual force carrying particle
Abhi: but it still exists
Abhi: and it is this force which the photon still carries at v=0, that caused the dielectric plates to crash into each other
Abhi: but it is still a confusing concept because it involves some other principles
Abhi: actually, the zero here isn't the velocity
Abhi: i.e. in the term zero point energy
Abhi: it is the absolute kelvin temperature
Abhi: that's the lowest possible temperature where matter ceases to exist
Juhi: its a bit confusing rite now
Juhi: i'll hav to read the full thing
Abhi: hehe
Abhi: let me put it in a very simple way
Abhi: what happens when you, say pull ALL the energy out from a mechanical spring?
Juhi: soch rahi thi
Abhi: shouldn't it stop oscillating?
Juhi: but how can u pull out all the energy?
Abhi: by stopping it's motion?
Abhi: the energy of a spring is given by 1/2 kx right?
Juhi: ya
Abhi: well, let's apply this analogy to quantum fields
Abhi: a quantum field is a field where every point in space is quantised according to maxwell's laws
Abhi: well, the constant in quantum mechanics, i.e. the quantisation coeffcient is always 'h' right?
Abhi: i.e. planck's constant
Abhi: if we envision a quantum field where the particles behave as wave, then the distance 'x' moved in time 't' in a classical spring should actually, analogically, be the same as the frequency of the EM wave of the particle oscillating at a fixed, quantised point in space right?
Abhi: so what would the energy of such a point in space be? it'd be simply 1/2 h f
Abhi: where f = frequency
Abhi: now comes the interesting part. Heisenberg's uncertainity principle not only holds true for the velocity and position of a particle
Abhi: but also for energy and time relationship of a particle/wave oscillating in space
Abhi: so where does that bring us....we can either measure time, or we can either measure energy to 100% perfection
Abhi: that means there would be an uncertainity in the measurement of either right?
Abhi: that uncertainity is actually this 1/2 hf energy
Juhi: oh now i get it
Abhi: and this, has been attributed to intrinsic quantum behaviour, rather than any measuremental errors!
Juhi: wow!!
Abhi: where we fail to understand the exact nature of ZPE is a totally different matter
Abhi: because, if we calculate the total such energy present in the universe, it'd be simply ENORMOUS
Abhi: one more interesting element is that of the relation of the ZPE to it's frequency
Abhi: when we consider the totality of the universe.....hmm, how do i put it?
Abhi: you know how an EM wave propagates?
Abhi: there are modes in an EM field
Abhi: EM waves are light like radiation that propagate at the speed of light
Abhi: they don't contain matter, but propagate as a function of their frequency, polarisation and wavelength
Abhi: so every mode, MUST have an intricsic energy of atleast 1/2 h f
Abhi: (which in essence is the ZPE)
Abhi: therefore, if we consider constantly propagating waves, their energy depends on their f
Abhi: therefore by analogy of 1/2mv^2, they increase per unit frequency as the square of their frequency
Abhi: get it? or is it confusing?
Abhi: so it'd actually be that the energy depends as the CUBE of the frequency, and this is the ONLY energy in the entire fabric of space time which depends as the cube of frequency...or the intrinsic energy factor
Juhi: this is something interesting
Abhi: it is, VERY interesting
Abhi: it simply destroys our concept of space and time
Juhi: i dont know that energy has a direct relation wid frequency....
Abhi: E = hf
Juhi: physics and maths......not my cup of tea
Abhi: abhi 2 hafte pehle to chem sir ne padhaya tha..hehe
Abhi: planck's relation
Juhi: that i know.......but cube of frequency??
Abhi: well, this is only in the case of ZPE
Abhi: that's why it is totally lorentz invariant, because the cube factor takes care of the the doppler shift...or I should say, the lorentz indiscrepency
Abhi: lorentz variance is the basis of theory of relativity
Abhi: but this ZPE doesn't follow it at all!
Abhi: that's why i had stated at the beginning itself that Relativity is flawed in certain cases
Abhi: okay, won't bore you and bother you anymore
Abhi: just think about this for two days..
Juhi: ya sure.........u've seriously got me thinking
Abhi: well, physics does that
Abhi: do you know, there are breaks in spacetime fabric too?
Abhi: that there's simply nothing there
Abhi: absolutely nothing
Abhi: time is inexistent!
Abhi: and that's something
Abhi: a particle which passes thru such a void simply disappears
Abhi: and reappears
Abhi: it's mass disappears
Abhi: energy disappears
Abhi: violating the laws of conservation of mass and energy
Abhi: and it's this interesting aspect of our universe that's a serious thorn in the backside when it comes to explaining why ZPE isn't behaving according to both the General and Special Theories of relativity
Juhi: hav u spoken to a physics person abt this?
Abhi: not really
Abhi: these are all experimental and documented facts
Abhi: no need to talk to a physicist
Abhi: but my friend and i have our own stupid theories to explain this stuff
Juhi: i mean u should try......
Abhi: which are actually flawed, now i know
Juhi: it might lead u somewhere
Abhi: because we speculated taking relativity as basis
Abhi: and relativity in itself is flawed
Abhi: actually, the paradox of our universe, is its totally irrational
Abhi: relativity and quantum mechanics are contradictory theories, yet they both satisfy a lot of questions...
Abhi: and one satisfies one set of problems, the other, the other set
Abhi: yet both don't satisfy all the questions
Juhi: thats wat makes physics all the more interesting........doesent it??
Abhi: yeah
Abhi: and fricken confoosing too

Abhi: hey, if you don't mind, shall i post this convo as the next part of the series on the time-energy paradox?
Abhi: Not really in the mood to type another article after typing the stuff here once...hehehe
Abhi: i'll edit out stuff and retain the important parts only
Juhi: as u wish i hav no probs........
Abhi: merci, madame!
