 +  +  =    January 08 Taj Mahal ConspiracyThats right, as the title reads... its a big coverup, a conspiracy.
As magnificient as the Taj Mahal is... Ever since I had visited the Taj many years ago, I had always been fascinated about finding out more...
The Taj Mahal is such a structure that one will never be dissapointed when seeing it for the first time. No matter how many people talk about it, describe it, praise it... no matter how much hype is generated. You will never. Ever. Be dissapointed.
As the famous quote quote goes... Rabindranath Tagore beautifully places the Taj Mahal as "a teardrop on the cheek of time"
Sadly... if you visit the Taj, what you see is a tiny piece of it.. sure on the exterior you see it in all its glory. But generally, you walk in, you walk around that 1 big central room, you walk downstairs (if your lucky and the time is right) into the "tomb". To see where the Mumtaz is apparently burried, and thats it. You walk out. Guards are posted everywhere else to make sure you dont go for a little wander.
What you dont notice, is the doors that have been blocked off, on either side, the archways that have been sealed and covered up, the stairs, the paths.. all of which lead to the rest of the Taj Mahal.
The cover up is this. The Taj Mahal was NEVER built by Shahjahan, it was taken over by him and his band of looters from the hindu pilgrams who rightfully owned the Taj Mahal as a place of worship for the god Shiva, amongst many other gods worshiped there.
Shahjahan and his people blocked off the entrances to the other parts of the Taj, to block the truth in. He never had the power nor the wealth to build such a structure. For a man with a hundred wives he never had the heart to build it for 1 lady either. Shahjahan did a lousy job at covering the truth, and the indian government is trying its very best to do the job for him. All for what...? Tourism.
As a tourist, What would you rather go see.. just another temple...? OR "The ultimate symbol of love.. one man builds a magnificent structure to honor the love and last wishes of his dying wife.... the most romantic place on earth"
In summary:
1. The Taj Mahal is really a Hindu Temple and not a Islamic
Mausoleum.
2. Originally a temple, it was taken over during the raids, and its
true history covered.
3. Shahjahan never had the capicity nor the heart to build such a
structure for 1 woman.
4. The indian government is guarding this secret for its
tourism revenue.
5. For further details and hundreds of points leading to the proof
of this theory read an article
by P. N. Oak titled - The True Story of the Taj Mahal.

The more people that know about this, the better.
Maybe one day the indian government will take notice that they aren't fooling anyone. December 12 Guess who has tickets to U2 !!!? Guess who has tickets to the U2 concert?!
..........Thats right folks !! ME!
U2 Here I come :)
It most certainly is a beautiful day... September 02 Americanized Media HypeAmericans.. fine, compete for the the tallest building.. the strongest economy.. the fastest cars, the latest technology but.... comparing.. natural disasters?! wtf.. surely draw the line there.. either Americans are insane.. or the media is driving them that way.. out of the many news articles i've read on the "Hurricane Katrina".. all of them are focused on building up the excitement.. the drama surrounding the disaster.. Almost all of them have compared the disaster to the Asian tsunami disaster, most saying that hurricane katrina was worse then the tsunami.. what a bunch of shit..
A few hunderd people.. is nothing compared to over 200,000 killed by the tsunami. I'm not comparing disasters or saying that anyone is more important. I just cant believe the hype the media generates, and due to public demand.. the stories that get written about natural disasters.
The media focuses on pure rubbish.. instead of helping those in need, documenting stories of survival and care for others. Almost all stories are related to the shootings, the kilings.. the apparent "anarchy situation" that is going on.. give me a break.. a few people steal guns from a store and they call it anarchy. HYPE! all bs hype.. they want to be the best, they want to sound like they've survived the biggest devestation the world has seen... well its far from it.
Sure i feel for them.. for all the poor innocent people that lost their lives, and of course those affected by that.. Its a real unfortunate sad situation, but the media really has to stop the crap, and report the facts, and the american public really need to stop believing them and being so hungry for more hyped up stories.
For example, read any of the stories about the hurricane.. on www.ninemsn.com.au and you will see what i'm talking about. Perhaps my argument strengthened by news sites and titles such as :
'Our tsunami' -- Katrina's death toll soars The Times and Democrat
Hurricane Katrina's destruction "is our tsunami" Daily Breeze Mumbai has similar floods, i did not see 1 story about anarchy or i did not read about any whineing.. or wingeing.. simply that people are stranded.. much devastation caused.. lives have been lost.. clean up will commence shortly.. Mumbai will survive. Thats it... simple.. no hype no bs.. no comparison.. simple. Report the facts.. report on issues that concern acts of courage.. survival.. report on things to celebrate humanity in the face of devastation... NOT.. anarchy(because some people stole guns) NOT greatest disaster ever(because you want to claim the title for greatest survivors in the world) DO NOT overhype lives lost, people hurt, bad situations, DO NOT COMPARE.
Americans will think they have survived the worst of it... they will think they can do anything.. because they are strong.. because of all the media hype.. sure they have been through a lot.. and i do feel for the ones affected... but really... honestly.. they aint seen nothin yet.
*Edited*
Hm.. after some further investigation.. to what some Americans think about this.. i guess my opinion on this is shared by some of them too.. I guess there is some sense in this..
As an article on www.oregonlive.com reports.. story unedited and directly from website, all credit for the following goes to www.oregonlive.com This isn't 'our tsunami'Thursday, September 01, 2005
Hurricane Katrina is a sad and horrible catastrophe but to compare this to the Asian tsunami is ridiculous. MSNBC and several other networks have referred to this disaster as "our tsunami." How could one compare what has happened here to the 180,000 lives lost in the tsunami, unless you happen to consider American life more worthy? I am disgusted that the American media resorts to using and belittling other world tragedies just to get better ratings. There's no comparison. WILLIAM K. LAWRENCE Southeast Portland
Watch your hyperbole "This is our tsunami," shouts Tuesday's headline, quoting the understandably devastated Biloxi mayor, A.J. Holloway. But as valid as the mayor's characterization may be on an emotional level, this is not "our tsunami." This is our Hurricane Katrina. True, the death toll is as yet unknown, and many have also been injured. There has been a terrible environmental toll, and the property damage hasn't begun to be tallied. In contrast, the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami of Dec. 26, 2004, killed approximately 180,000 people; it injured many more and left an estimated 50,000 missing. Mayor Holloway has a right to his grieving rhetoric, but his words don't belong in The Oregonian's front-page headline. Even in the face of profound tragedy, hyperbole does no one any good. It insults the memory of the dead, and misinforms the living. Stick to the facts, please. They matter most at the worst of times.

August 19 Star Wars - Backstroke of the WestOkay I recieved an email today at work from a friend which was simply.. hillarious!! i have never laughed so hard at a forwarded email. Below i've posted the contents of that email. Basically somebodys picked up a pirated version of Episode 3 - revenge of the Sith
and posted screenshots of it, the translation into apparently more understandable english... is um... well.. prolly perfectly best understood if uve never spoken a word of english in ur life :) take a look...
Disclamer : All credit goes to the original blogger of this content, this is simply a rip from the email onto my blog, i do not claim this work as my own.
episode iii, the backstroke of the west
Original post: i saw revenge of the sith last weekend at a local theater with my friend joe who was in town on business. it was much better than the first two movies and a fitting end (err.. middle) to the star wars saga. the next day i was walking past my friendly dvd salesperson and decided to check out revenge of the sith. i was assured the quality was good and for 7rmb why not give it a shot. aside from the counters on the top of the screen and a distorted perspective it was ok- not high quality but watchable. the captions were a hilarious surprise- a direct english translation of the chinese interpretation of what the script was saying. it varied from being somewhat close to the script to being 'far far away'....  amazingly enough, the beginning scroll is mistranslated even though the words are right there on the screen.  star war (just one)  'the backstroke of the west' is the english translation of the chinese title.  anakin: "this is where the fun begins"  obi wan: "let them pass between us"  obi wan, space battle strategist.  obi wan grows impatient with r2.  the chancellor warns anakin and obi wan that count dooku is... big.  obi wan assures the chancellor that it's no problem.  count dooku talks tough.  that's chancellor palpatine speaking, talking about obi wan.  anakin taunts general grevious.  the general fires off a snappy comeback.  ummm... ????  yoda: "premonitions? premonitions?"  sounds like something yoda might actually say... maybe.  anakin is haunted by dreamses.  troopseses!  anakin gets frustrated with the jedi council.  this seemed completely random until i figured out that 'jedi council' was being translated into chinese then back to english as 'the presbyterian church'.  anakin: "obi wan, may the force be with you"  anakin bargains for the life of his cuckoldry. cuckoldry?  c3po tells the amorous couple to get a room.  obi wan can't face what he must do.  yoda insists...  ...and explains that the person he once knew noed longer is.  anakin tells padme about his new virtues, now being both strong and big.  padme doesn't want strong and big- she also doesn't want to walk on a road meant for running about.  lier!!!  obi wan has heard enough.  i love this translation. darth vader is actually shouting, "nooooooooooooo..."

August 01 Where did the time go?
This site is a MUST SEE... http://www.wheredidthetimego.com/
Some awesome animation and flash technology used to do the site.. and its really very interesting.
Results show : I've spent 8.7 years sleeping!! what a freakin waste of time..
Okay fine.. i dont really make use of every moment to its full extent.. I dont at times value the gift of life and choose to do something with it rather then laze around in front of the tv.. (although some will argue that IS doing something) but i doubt how usefull it is.. Anway, if we never had to sleep... would be far more advanced, we may have colonized mars allready. Einstein and fellow scientists may have used those extra 8 hours to think up formulae or inventions that could have changed the world entirely differently.
Production would increase.. Technology would grow.. we would have more time to do things we now cannot...
Though.. on the bad side, all of earths resources would probably have been used up by now and we may all be dead. For those 8 hours each day that an average person sleeps.. multiply every person on earth by the amount of time of those 8 hours they would use.. eating.. using up resources.. starting/fighting wars.. killing the planet...
I bet at different times that we all sleep... the earth is happy.. for it too takes a break. Plus.. i'm glad we have to sleep.. theres nothing better then that feeling when you're tired.. and just about to get into bed.. as u pull the sheets over your body, and find that perfect groove in your pillow..
Correct me if i'm wrong.. but (if you arent forced to go to sleep) its almost impossible to hate that feeling. July 25 Perception..http://www.echalk.co.uk/amusements/OpticalIllusions/colourPerception/colourPerception.html The above link will take you to a series of images that are mind boggling.. Colour perception.. that really messes with your mind.. i dont know if its fake.. or a trick of some sort.. but until somebody tells me it is.. It sure does look real, and it does make sense.. try it out.. preety cool.
I noticed how cool it looks when you put a tea bag into boiling water.. that colour transition from yellow.. to gold.. to red.. looks awesome :) haha.. okay fine.. it looks better if ur at work at 8am.. half asleep and semi halucinating.. but still.. next time.. really concentrate and check it out.. its trippy :D I'm gonna try it when drunk ;) My Regret.. Part 2Here we go.. i'll keep this one short.. 2nd regret.. this one is probably worse though.
I'm standing at a bus stop (of course.. waiting for a bus) to my right about 10 metres away.. theres a no standing sign (bus zone). While i'm waiting i am reading over notes (as i'm going to an interview).. I did not notice the blind man who had walked up and was waiting at the no standing sign instead of the bus stop sign.. I start walking towards him, to tell him thats not the bus stop.. just as i did, yep.. the bus comes. Dilemma.. I go back to the bus stop (hence the heading of this blog).. right.. I assume the damn bus driver will see this poo blind guy.. and figure it out in his head, that he is waiting for a bus.
The bus stops, another couple of people get on before me, i can see the blind man reliase something is wrong, as the bus has just gone past him.. he starts slowly walking in the direction of our bus.. too late.. As i got on, i told the driver, i think he wants to get on, the prick of a driver (asian.. mayb that has nothing to do with it.. but he was a grumpy old asian man) looks at his mirror.. sees nobody, looks at the bus full of passengers, and says.. where to, i try to stall saying wait somebody's coming, he says no time, i tell him where im going he gets my money, slaps back the change, and before i'm even seated off he goes...
worst thing is.... as i get to the back window of the bus to sit down.. the blind man just behind the bus.. meaning he would have almost reached the door as the bus left... i could see the look of dissapointment in his face even though he was wearing thick sunglasses.. he has his cane raised up in one hand.. and his other hand on the bus stop sign. His head slumped as he heard the sound of the bus fading...
sigh.. i should have helped.. I should have said something to the driver, but i was too focused in my interview.. i was too worried about the bus being full and not holding them up.. i was not bothered enough.. My regret. Next time it will be different... Always consciously think of help others.. even though your intentions are good.. if you arent in the right frame of mind.. you may miss the opportunity. July 22 My regret.. Part 1Hi everyone!
Well well.. what an uneventfull week.. its been just work work work.. Hopefully weekend will turn that all around, woohoo for friday!
Tonight.. Wenesday was um.. "city to surf practice" :D today ice skating at macq centre :) Tomorrow golf.. bring on the weekend hehe
I gave blood this week.. ive given it a few times before, but i didnt know that you could only give once every 3 months!! thats just stupid.. they should just let you do it as much as you want.. people know how to take care of themselves.. Plus its not like we are getting paid for it! Its charity..
Anyway.. that was a setback, for my plans of donating 50 times.. I'm up to 5 probably total in my life.. but if i plan to donate once every 3 months from now on.. for another 45 times (in order to get a reli cool certificate, and many little gifts along the way) I will have to donate for the next 11 years and 4 months!! every 3 months.. in order to achieve my goal.. hmm.. well can be done.. :)
On other thoughts.. can dreaming be practiced? If so.. it would be the ultimate i guess.. "almost reality" experience.. unparalleled to anything existing technology can provide with virtual simulation.
If dream control can be mastered.. you can do anything.. fly.. teleport.. have super powers.. play in the baseball finals.. anything... hmm if only there was a way to choose a dream and control it.. and then to just set an alarm like normal and wake up.. :) even better would be an ability to plug in and record that dream, instant dvd movie creation while you sleep :)
My dream sux rite now.. I keep having a reoccouring dream of a couple of situations in the past.. which i thought i had the power to change its outcome.. but i didnt.. instead i chose to ignore.. and now it haunts me in my dream!..
one situation.. I was in India.. sitting outside a glasses shop (like opsm).. a poor beggar.. an old man.. has just collected enough money to go in dreaming of the moments to come where he will be able to see again!.. India and its people are the nicest most hospitable in the world.. yet.. there are some.. as everywhere.. that are pure evil.. I'm sitting outside the shop i see the man stumble in.. feeling nervous of the clean bright surrounding in comparison to his own image.. he nervously asks if he can purchase glasses.. I watch.. The man behind the counter says to him.. yes.. sure you can, you will need an eye test first.. the man looks at his money.. thinking sure.. its all part of the process of getting glasses.. with what little money he has.. a short while later they come out of the testing room... the man smiling..clearly excited.. thinking of how he will be able to see again.. the man behind the counter says.. that will be 100 rupees.. the man hands over the money excitedly.. and waits..
The shopkeeper turns to the man next to him.. and starts serving him instead... The poor mans expression turns sad.. he asks for his glasses that were meant to be coming.. The shopkeeper says look you just paid for the test.. you didnt know that the minimum price for glasses here starts at 700rupees? the old mans face falls.. he says.. i used most of what i had for the exam, i dont have that much to pay for glasses, you said i would get glasses and didnt tell me the eye test will cost so much, if anything at all.. now i've paid you please give me glasses.. the shopkeeper tells him hes an idiot.. that he should have more common sense.. swears at him and tells him to stop begging and get out of his shop... he literally pushes him out..
The worst thing happens next.. the man can barely see.. he stumbles his way out of the shop.. he almost trips over me sitting on the steps outside the shop waiting for my glasses to be fixed.. the old man starts crying.. surely hes been though many many hardships in life.. but theres nothing more heart breaking then seeing an old man being pushed to the crying limit... He squints at me.. as he goes past.. so he can see my face, wipes his eyes.. he stops looks at me closely.. shakes his head.. mumbles about how unfair life is.. and how he just cant get out of it.. and dissapears into the bustiling pune city crowd.. I can only image his hurt.. thinking he will be able to see properly.. clearly again.. more then 2 feet away from somehting.. and then have it taken away... The dream is haunting me... I had over 2000rupees in my wallet.. my very expensive glasses were being fixed inside... y did i not help the poor man.. and just buy him the damn glasses.. I dont know. I should have.. but it seemed a lot quicker then reading this.. I felt sorry for him as i hear the whole thing in the shop... and as he walked past and looked at me with tears.. that was the worst... but.. i didnt help him.. and he had dissapeared before i reliased i should have.. to this day it haunts me... i regret not buying him the glasses..
Thats not the worst part... the other dream involves an actual blind man.. waiting for a bus... I should have helped.. this also an incident that happened.. in india.
I'm not a bad person... i've been a good samaritian and helped out many people just randomly.. but when i dont.. or i miss the oportunity because of my slow thinking.. it really gets to me.. and stays in my head for a long long time.. The other story I will write for the next blog.. this ones been long enough, take care people.. keep your eyes open.. always help others who may need it... karma will look after you .. believe it.. Just dont let opportunitites pass where you had a chance to help someone.
Signing off,
Mandar. July 11 ViolenceMy views on terrorism.. the london bomb blasts were terrible..Not because of the blood and guts, but because it targetted the innocent, in this new era of terrorist activity the focus has seemed to shift on targetting the innocent.. the more you kill the greater your audience. They just to have a bigger shock value to be noticed. That is sad.. terrorism has always been the low way out, always has been a cowardly act..
I agree though.. there are some that have no option, to be heard, all they have is violence to make an impact. Just as some people would much rather fight out an argument.. rather then just sit there an talk it out. Terrorism is just this on a bigger scale. Though i cannot understand.. if that IS their only option, why can they not kill for a specific intended purpose, ie.. assinations, kidnappings, planned specific operations. Surely these will make a difference depending on what the target is, why set off a bomb in a market place, when those people have no right or reason to be dying there.
We should not directly blame the Middle East for terrorism, blame the world.. People should reliase that what the American government does, is also another form of terrorism, its just a case of carrying out terrorism against the terrorists themselves. To fight them we must understand them, freedom of speech is all good and great.. but what happens when nobody listens...?
Mahatma Gandhi :
The beginnings of the nonviolence movement lie in the satyagraha philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi, who guided the people of India to indepencence from Briitsh rule . Despite the violence that followed the partition of India, independence was achieved through natural resistance, rather then terrorism or miltary revolution. July 04 Live 8How are you all folks? doin well I hope! read below, hehe had to post it.. thats gold :)
SPEECH by Thomas Friedman of The New York Times On other matters.. god bless the organisers and volunteers of the live 8 show..and Sir Bob Geldof sure it wont solve the issue of poverty, but good on em for trying, eventually if enough influential people hold their own, and do their parts for one common goal.. poverty perhaps.. its easily possible. Lets just hope it has its influences now on world leaders.. sure you can put on a big concert.. but they can still easily choose to do nothing.. but if they do nothing.. now that everyone is aware of the situation in Africa, it will not go past unnoticed, there will be a lot of angry folks out there, including me. other thought : Bill Gates has donated over 5 billion dollars to charity.. surely even for him, that is no small amount.. Windows may suck at times, but the man has a big heart. I also think.. MJ should have sung at live 8... heal the world for an opnening song would have been priceless.

May 08 blogify me.. yes its time.lupin.. People who are quick to judge others, should spend the longest time judging themselves first. Some point fingers, and they point at ur flaws, and they judge you. What they are doing is trying to prove their way is right by pointing yours is wrong. They dont try to understand its the way you do it, they compare and they judge, when they themselves have done/do things equally as right/wrong. A friend busted my lip on the weekend, we'll talk it out.. heh.. 2 wrongs dont make a right, but.. aint nothin wrong... with a good ol fight. uh huh. On another matter, id giv everthing to know what she really feels.. its more fun finding out. Mood : lupin. even though today.. i dont if its same on other side. April 23 oh yea! the weekends here!Fri nite, few drinks on george st pubs, then off to hotel chambers! watched the monkeys do their salsa, tried to do some myself... badly :) Then headed to Bar333 , couldnt get drunk! dammit.. had to drive home 3 cheers for kajis mums goat meat samosa's :) fantastic! After a nice cup of coffee and a lack of sleep, drive home was nervous.. got home fine. All good, another night signed off. Hmm what to do tonite, going out on this long fine weekend is a must. Enjoy ppl. Work will come on tuesday, enjoy while u can. Now to drag my ass to the gym. Mood : Happy.. finally. Still "lupin" stands tall. April 22 bring on the weekendthe week starts tomorrow but the parties started today :) Destination : Greenwood @ North Sydney.. was packed out tonite, good mix of dance and rnb played. Went for a friends farewell. Zac is off to Mauritius! Went with the boys, came home early though, hopefully hear some stories of pickups tomorrow morning, that place was full to the brim with fine women :D, farewell zac! Shit.. work tomorrow.. argh.. 7am wake up.. nooo must get through it. Weekend awaits. Great lunch with neha today, her car rocks :) Bright BLUE toyota echo. Very neha. Madz i luv ya hehe there i said it. Smita my best bud, u get a mention on the same line.. hehe thanks 4 lots, u r amazing :) thats all for my stupid blog.. i'm addicted to blogging what can i say.. Mood : anxious. Thinking : of getting a mohawk.. hmm would look cool :) Thought/Quote of the day : "Its not a habit, its cool, i feeeeel alive" Blogged out. "lupin" yep.. still. more so after today. April 21 Charity concept..I want to use the blog for a better purpose least once, rather then post crap. Everyone do me a favor.. i'm currently working on a website, which i've been meaning to do for a long long time, and its about time i got around to it. I really need to use this as a resource, a type of research survey... Heres the idea behind my website. For Charity, would you be willing to donate.. IF the concept revolved around.. the more u spend the more you give. You simply go to the site, and send money to a charity account which i will set up. There will be a system, based on simple things.. ie.. alcohol, smokes, entry fees, food.. etc.. You pick a night/nights.. The more you spend on each of those things, the converted amount you give to charity. By converted I mean a system such as this.. will be on the site : 5 drinks (donate a dollar), a pack of smokes purchased (donate a dollar), Dinner eaten (donate 2) roughly.. they will be reviewed.. This is just a concept right now. You see when we go out... we never think of the disadvantaged.. we shouldnt because we wont have a good time.. But thats the thing.. you dont need to, go hard, drink up.. but dont forget the needy.. donate some.. the next day (if you can remember what happened that night). I know we all donate and/or have done so at some point.. But this may just be an interesting way to pool some money, there will be a section on the site to post up comments on y u donated, so you can share drinking stories. If i get this on the way.. the amount i spend on drinks.. i think i will be the biggest contributor to the site. :) Guys.. any ideas? suggestions? would it work? I'll have a monthly survey... to vote on the monthly charity that the money goes to, And i'll post the proof of donation on the site. If you have any comments i'd appreciate it, i know a lot of ppl have showed interest allready.. I've even got the site registered, and its just waiting to be built. Comments would be good.. Otherwise just click add comment.. and if you think it would work.. Say "YES" else say "NO" just curious.. Thanks guys. April 20 yep..Mood : relaxed.. easy. Thoughts of the day : I want to travel, its time to see what the world is doing. Lunch today : chicken and cheese crepe with avocado ( + extra cheese) Today ppl tried to give me crappy work.. at work. My boss who is a legend, stuck up for me, and yes.. he gave me good work.. As bad as that may sound.. i rather do good work then crappy work. Song I love : I see trees in green.. red roses too.. i see them bloom.. for me and you, and i think to myself. WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD :D It really is ppl.. appreciate it. "Lupin" <-- being tested very much. |
