I am thinking about the moral B. N. Reddy wanted to convey in his movie Malliswari. The movie was a big hit with wonderful acting and singing by Bhanumathy. The visibility of the moral was clouded by the songs and music. To me Malliswari movie conveys a meaningful moral for the present world. I have written the fundamental identities for humans, animals and birds are Self and Self's Family and all other identities are just made up identities to serve Self and the Family. The moral in Malliswari movie..

I am thinking about inter relationship between Fear of self, Productivity and Leadership in a society. Is fear of self necessary for getting productivity. When animals were used in farming work, fear of getting hurt made the animals do productive work in land. Fear of unemployment, fear of loosing status seem to be necessary to motivate humans do productive work. What is the role of leadership in inducing the fear in ordinary fear. Leaders are afraid of loosing the leadership and so their status in the society. They think by creating productivity in their societies they can maintain their leadership and so their status. So leadership uses fear as the instrument to compel the ordinary citizens to engage in productive work the same way farmers used the animals in their lands. Fear of unemployment and differential wage and income structure in the society are determined by the Leadership to compel ordinary people not do what they want to do. Ordinary people's day to day chores seem to be determined by the fear of Leadership...

I have been writing that the two predominant cultures are where I dominates in social relationships and where we dominate in social relationships. Fear of self isolates individuals psychologically from the society and individuals concentrate on I. Opposite to Fear is Love. Love unites self with the society and individuals think WE in their social relationships. I have also written Kingly societies are based on individual power over others and they are basically I oriented cultures. Democracy is..

Many years back I wrote what I felt not right in Advertising. The meaning of ownership is protection of Autonomy of the owner how the owner uses the property. In advertising lot of visuals are used to mislead the owner of money which product he shall buy this taking away the autonomy. Advertisers show a beautiful girl using Lux toilet soap and indirectly conveying those who used Lux toilet soaps become as beautiful as the girl. This is undermine the ownership rights of individuals by taking away their autonomy as owners of money. This practice in advertising extends to politics. Political parties use the same methods to influence the voter mind. In Democracy every voter is equal owner of the country and political parties undermine this equality in the ownership of country. Every voter is as responsible and as knowledgeable about what is good for the country as the leaders of the political parties. So there is no need or any meaning in the political campaigns...

I have talked about the meaning of Democracy. One citizen one vote means equal ownership of the country. Government is the means to make day to day decisions in the conductance of the society. We need some services in the form of Prime minister, ministers, MPs, IAS, IPS officers etc. Politicians are selected for these posts through elections. What shall be the nature of elections in any Democratic country where all citizens are equal owners of the country. Are elections a mode of investment opportunities..

Basic meaning of Democracy is equal ownership of the country. One citizen one vote mans that. In the family every member in the family is equal owner of the family. The servants are not the owners in the house. So they are supervised because they can be careless with properties in the house hold or they may steal items from the household. When every citizen is the equal owner of the country they protect country's properties and resources like family members. Unfortunately Democracies all over..

I am thinking about Individuals vs society. Individuals get every thing from the society Society gives individuals Security, Livelihood, and meaning of life. So Individuals must be conscious of importance of society and they must feel gratitude towards the society. Individual have two roles as autonomous individuals in their private space and as members of the society in public space. These roles shall not be mixed. For example individuals can spend their money the way they like, they can choose..

Since the days I was teaching Managerial Economics in Madras University, I wondered at the meaning of Money, Interest Rate and Profit. Money was to ease exchange of goods and services in the market place and to make tremendous improvement on barter system of market exchanges directly on goods and services. This way we think the meaning of money is fixation of utilities of goods and services in money terms. If product A's value is ten rupees and product B 's value is five rupees, the seller of product..

I am thinking about the meaning of the word Bias we often used. Dictionary meaning is prejudice in favour or against some body or some thing which is unfair. I have explained the Systems analysis. Life forms have multiple identies and they deal with different systems. When we deal with a system, we must concentrate only on that system and not other systems. We must have that discipline. We have heard in Mahabharat stories that when Guruji asked Arjun and other students to shoot a fruit on a tree..

I am always puzzled on the duality of Power and Duty. Power concept comes from survival instict and hunger. The powerful use the weak for food. Power is so basic it is not easy to control its effect on us. Duty comes from social obligations and responsibilities. In a job we are paid salaries to take care of our needs and we are obligated to do our Duty. We notice often this link is ignored and we choose Power to dominate Duty. We often choose what we like in our jobs which is against our duty. We..

I felt like sharing an interesting situation with one of my students in the University of Zambia in the year 1982. I was teaching Managerial Economics and conducted test for giving internal assessment marks. I gave the marked answer sheets to the students. In the class room no body raised any issue. When I came back to my office room, one tall student holding his answer paper came close to me. He was furious with his hands shivering and asked me in angry voice if I think I alone knows Managerial..

As I contemplate on immoral persuasions of Advertising, I am reminded of the machinations of Iago, the villain in the great Shakespearean drama Othello. In my early College days I read Othello and wondered at the character of Iago. He takes do much time and intelligence to create suspicion in the mind of Othello about his wife and motivate Othello to finally kill his wife. For many years Iago stood in my mind as great evil force. My own way of dealing with others whose actions hurt my interests has been just to avoid them and forget about them but don't waste your time and efforts on hurting others...

I always wanted to differentiate the moral decide between Duty and Power in any job. I explain how I evaluated my Duty as teacher in the Dept. Of Management Studies(DOMS) in the University of Madras. I joined the DOMS in 1979 and retired in June 2006. University of Madras gave me salary, work to give meaning to my life, and social recognition. Duty is my contractual obligation what I have to do to the University of Madras in return. Broad Identity of teachers as well as parents is they are in the..

Coming to the divide between Duty and Power in job performances, Duty comes from the contractual obligation of any employee, where as Power in the exercise job is nothing but corruption as it is beyond the contractual obligation between employee and parental organization. As I have written corruption comes due to the influences of irrelevant identities other than one relevant identity in the performance of Duties. For example I am a teacher in the University of Madras and I am also Tax payer in India..

Morning I heard in the news about positive approach between Trump and Putin towards the end of Ukraine Russia war. Every morning I go out of my house to pluck flowers to decorate my God's in my Puja room. Near my house four dogs walk around and I also see about three dogs relaxing fifty feet away from my house on the same road. Both the groups do not let other group to enter into their territory. This ownership of territory seems to be the basis for the notion of a country for Humans. Land and space..

Yesterday I visted Dilshuknagar Sai Baba temple. The two words that were written prominently above Sai Baba idle were Shradda and Sahanam in telugu. I am thinking about the meaning of these words and their relevance. Shraddha means concentration on our work which involves sincerity of self, truthfulness, commitment towards the act and it's effect on others and environment, purity of mind on the act... I have written we humans have many active Identities may be fifty or more. In seconds they take..

I am thinking about two concepts: Subjective determinism and Objective evolutionism. In our lives subjective determinism is fundamental. We as individuals determine our desires and determine efforts to satisfy our desires. Science deals with objective evolutionism. In the objective world changes occur due to planetary rotations and usage of limbs or parts by life forms. Science does not deal with any Subjective form in control of these changes. Humans as they are completely controlled by subjective determinism can not accept objective theories of science. That is why humans develop beliefs in God and nature of God even when God is not visible. Science differs from Theology. Philosophy seems to be in between science and theology..

Existential philosophy gives importance to two concepts: Freedom and Responsibility. What is Freedom. I think Freedom is primarily from Fear. We as Indians got independence from the British means we got Freedom from the fear of British raj. In independent India are we free of Fear. We or our leaderships create Fear in us. Incomes for jobs, social respect for wealth and Power create Fear in us and deprive us of Freedom. Because of Fear we want to work and we want to become wealthy and we want to become..

Years back I have retired from my job am just a pensioner. I notice change in my spiritual orientation from what I used to think while working in the University of Madras. In my working years I used to think more about Lord Vishnu and I wanted to do my day to day job with out mistakes and adharma. Lord Rama was my guide. I was busy with my job, how to manage my salary, thinking about family. After retirement I think more and more about Lord Siva. He took Halahala poison to save the world and his..

Repeatedly I hear floods in northern India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and associated human losses, loss of homes and crops. This takes my mind to the summer times I used to spend in my village YKP. When I was ten years old, as I played with friends around Zenda Manu, I hear the farmers discussing how hot was the summer. When ever I hear this I tell to myself meaning of hot summer means heavy rainfall during the rainy season. I also hear devastating effects of earthquakes in Afghanistan. What is the meaning..

I have remarked that religious and Nation identities are not fundamental. Fundamental identities for life forms on earth are two: One is Self and the other is Family. We see that among animals, and birds apart from humans. Other groups such as friendship groups, Religious groups as well as groups based on Nationality are just to take care of the interests of Self and Self's Family and alterable. The real identities are Self and Self's Family...
