” Woh Din “….A Video That Will Make you nostalgic…

 

 

 

 

If you’ve gone through the 90s as a kid, then this video will make you nostalgic. A trip down the memory lane when things used to be simpler and fun; from textbook cricket to Nagraj comics, from Duck Tales to Surabhi, from F.L.A.M.E.S to approaching a girl through a wingman, from familiar postmen to a single landline in a Mohalla, this film has covered it all.

“Woh Din” is a tribute to the glorious decade of 90′s by the creative ‘emotional fools’ at EmotionalFulls.

Thank you for such a wonderful film.

” God’s Own Child From God’s Own Country “….

Edmund Thomas Clint was a child prodigy from Kochi, Kerela. Sadly, he lived only for 7 years and passed away due to kidney failure.

But what he did in those 7 years is a work of sheer genius. At such a tender age, he had the creative bent of an artistic legend: he created some fine 25,000 artwork in just 2522 days!

Clint Road in Kochi is named after him. There are books and films on his unbelievable journey, yet this is an untold story. The video rightly attributes,

“Gods Own Child from God’s Own Country”

Cheetahs on the Bonnet !!!

On the plains of the Serengeti our safari columnists have an unforgettable, heart-stopping encounter with a cheetah family

Bush Telegraph Column :::: In The Telegraph UK

 

 


On the face of it you would be forgiven for thinking that the ‘bush’ is the ‘bush’ and that the places where the wild creatures of Africa still roam look much like one another. But like that evocative word ‘wilderness’, the terrain and the variety of the ecosystems involved vary hugely in terms of both geography and geology.

In southern Africa, where we have spent much of the last year, the ‘bush’ includes the shrublands, riverine forests, grasslands, floodplains and sand islands of Botswana’s Okavango Delta at one extreme and the desert mountains of Namibia with its populations of desert-adapted elephant, lion and rhino on the other. In between lies everything from the Nyika plateau in Malawi where leopards and antelope roam across a landscape that could easily be mistaken for Scotland to the fever tree forests of the northern Kruger in South Africa.

But there is nowhere that reflects the ‘Out Of Africa’ image of the popular imagination better than the hills and rolling savannah grasslands of the Serengeti in northern Tanzania alongside, of course, the game parks and reserves of Kenya itself where Karen Von Blixen’s classic was written.

Savannah grasslands have the distinct advantage that the big cats can be followed in a game vehicle and seen from afar off. Watching a kill, for example, from start to finish is a very rare event at the best of times but in dense bush it is more or less impossible. In the open savannah, however, particularly during the wildebeest migration, it is a real possibility.

While not of a kill (thankfully for us), the accompanying film demonstrates how intimate an experience an encounter with wild cats can be in the Serengeti. Cheetah, like this mother and her year-old cub, favour the wide-open spaces where they can keep an eye out for their arch enemy, lions, and use that extraordinary acceleration to get quickly out of trouble.

This particular cub, whose juvenile mane or ‘mantle’ can still be seen on his neck and down his back, will soon be leaving his mother for a solitary existence on his own and is demonstrating his adolescent bravado to the full.

” என்ன காப்பி சாப்பிட்டாச்சா …. !!!!”

 

மஹான் கொடுத்த காப்பி



காஞ்சிமாமுனிவர் கேரள மாநிலம் கொல்லங்கோடு என்ற ஊரில் முகாமிட்டிருந்த சமயம். அப்போது அங்கே வேதத்திற்கான ஆய்வு சபையை அவர் கூட்டி இருந்தார். விஷ்ணுபுரம் வேதபண்டிதர் ஒருவரும் அந்த சபைக்காக அங்கே அழைக்கப்பட்டு இருந்தார்.

மடத்தில் அன்புக்கட்டளையின்படி, காப்பி என்பது தவிர்க்கப்பட்ட பானமாக இருந்தது. உடலின் நன்மைக்காகவும் மற்றும் ஏதோ ஒரு தெய்வ சூட்சுமத்தை அறிந்ததாலோ என்னவோ மடத்து சிப்பந்திகளும் காப்பி தயாரிப்பதையோ, அருந்துவதையோ தடை செய்து, மிகவும் கடுமையான நியமமாக மஹான் ஸ்ரீமடத்தில் கடைப்பிடிக்கச் செய்திருக்கிறார்.

இருந்தாலும் காப்பி பழக்கம் தவிர்க்க முடியாத ஒன்றல்லவா? தொடர்ந்து பல வருடங்களாக அந்தப் பானத்தை அருந்துபவர்களுக்கு, குறித்த நேரத்தில் அது கிடைக்காமல் போனால் தாங்க முடியாத தாபம் ஏற்படுவதுண்டு. இதே நிலையில் தான், விஷ்ணுபுரம் பண்டிதரும் அந்த அதிகாலை காப்பிக்காக ஸ்ரீமடத்தில் தவித்துக்கொண்டிருந்தார்.

அப்போது யாரோ ஒரு அன்பர், அவரை மட்டும் தனியாக வெளியே அழைத்துச் சென்று, இவர் கேட்காமலேயே சூடாகக் காப்பியைக் கொண்டுவந்து கொடுத்தார். பண்டிதருக்கு ஒரே ஆனந்தம். போன உயிர் வந்தது போல் மகிழ்ச்சி. சிறிது நேரத்தில் வேத சபை கூடியது. மஹான் சபைக்கு வந்ததும் அவரை நமஸ்கரித்துவிட்டு இந்த பண்டிதர் அவர் அருகில் சென்றார்.

“என்ன காப்பி சாப்பிட்டாச்சா?” பெரியவா தனக்கே உரிய தெய்வீகப் புன்சிரிப்போடு கேட்டதும், ஆடிப்போய் விட்டார் பெரியவர். யாருக்குமே தெரியாதென்று தான் செய்த காரியத்தை, மஹான் தன் தவறை சுட்டிக்காட்டுவது போல் கேட்டதும், அவருக்கு மனதில் பயம் தோன்றிவிட்டது.

“வந்து வந்து ஏதோ கொடுத்தான்” என்று பட்டும்படாமலும் , பளிச்சென்று சொல்லாமலும் குற்ற உணர்வோடு இருந்தார்.

“நான் தான் உங்களுக்குக் கொடுக்கச் சொன்னேன்” என்று சிரித்துக்கொண்டே மஹான் சொன்னபோது, தன் மீதுள்ள கரிசனத்தை அறிந்த அந்த முதிய பண்டிதர் ஆடித்தான் போய்விட்டார். மடத்தில் உள்ளவர்கள் சாப்பிடக்கூடாது. வெளியே இருந்து இங்கே வருபவர்கள் ஏன் தங்களின் பழக்கங்களை மாற்றிக் கொள்ள வேண்டும்? இதை நன்றாக அறிந்த மஹான் தான் விஷ்ணுபுரம் வேதபண்டிதருக்கு, விதிவிலக்கு அளித்திருந்தார். 

இப்படி வேண்டியதை வேண்டியவாறு எல்லோருக்கும் அருளும் மாபெரும் தெய்வமான காஞ்சி மஹானை நாம் சரணடைய வேண்டாமா?

” He Wanted to Carry Some Money When He Is Dead !!!… In check or cash ? !!!” …

Money for the Dead!

An old miser, due to his terrible cheapness, had no friends nor family. Just before he died he called his doctor, his lawyer and a minister to come see him. They complied, and gathered together around his bed.

“I always heard you can’t take it with you, but I am going to prove you can,” he said. “I have $90,000 cash hidden underneath my mattress. It’s in 3 envelopes of $30,000 each. I want each one of you to grab one envelope now and just before they throw the dirt on my grave, you throw the envelopes in.”
Weeks later, the three attended the funeral, and true to their word, each threw in their envelope into the grave. On the way back from the cemetery, the minister said, “I don’t feel so good about this, I am going to confess, I deperately needed $10,000 for a new church we are building, so I took out $10,000 and threw only $20,000 in the grave.”

The doctor said, “I, too, must confess. I am building a clinic and took $20,000 and threw in only $10,000.” He looked ashamed.

The lawyer said, “Gentlemen, I’m surprised, shocked and ashamed of both of you. I don’t see how you could in good conscience hold on to that money. I threw in a personal check for the entire amount.”
