How good is your memory –
no Q on how much of Savings you have –
how do you protect them ? will your
family members be able to access it without any hassle ! A friend once cried after falling ill that
thus far, he has not revealed anything to his family and they would not even
know what is available and where they are kept safely !!
மறதி என்பது மனிதகுலத்தின் சாபம் [சில விஷயங்களில் மறதி வரமும் கூட
!!].
ஞாபக மறதி இல்லாதவர்கள் உலகில் யாருமே இல்லை
எனலாம். குழந்தைகள் முதல் தள்ளாடும் முதியோர்
வரை மறதி இல்லாத மனிதர் இல்லை. மறதிகள் பலவிதமாக உள்ளன. சிலர் நன்கு பழகிய
மனிதர்களின் பெயர்கள் அல்லது முகங்களைக் கூட மறந்து விடுகின்றனர். சிலர் பொருள்களின்
பெயர்களை மறந்து விடுகின்றனர். சிலர் தம் உடைமைகளை, பொருள்களை எங்கே வைத்தோம் என்பதை
மறந்து விடுகின்றனர். சிலர் செய்ய வேண்டிய முக்கிய கடமைகளைக் கூட மறந்து விடுகின்றனர். ஒரு சமயம் எனது நண்பர்
அலுவலகம் முடிந்து வீடு திரும்ப வேண்டிய வேளையில் - தனது இரு சக்கர வாஹனம் கனவில்லை என்று பதற, அலுவலக நண்பர்கள் அனைவரும் தெரு முழுதும்
தேடினோம். எங்காவது வெளியே சென்றீர்களா, ஹோட்டல்
அல்லது வேறு அலுவலகம் முன்பு நிறுத்தி மறந்து விட்டீர்களா என பலவாறு வினவினோம் .. .. .. அந்த நண்பர் அன்று வண்டியிலேயே வரவில்லை
!! என்பது உணர்ந்தபோது அனைவரும் சிரித்தனர்.
மறதிநோய்
(Dementia) என்பது நினைவு, சிந்தனை, நடத்தையில் ஏற்படும் சீர்குலைவையும்,
அதனால் நாளாந்த செயற்பாடுகளில் ஏற்படும் சீர்குலைவையும் காட்டும் நோய்க் கூட்டறிகுறியாகும்.
Forgetfulness is a
persistent failure to remember. It results from changes in the brain and can be
a normal part of aging or a symptom of another condition or disease. When you
experience forgetfulness, you may find it harder to recall information or
events, learn new things, or form new memories. Common causes of forgetfulness
include aging, side effects from medications, trauma, vitamin deficiencies,
cancer in the brain, and infections in the brain, as well as a variety of other
disorders and diseases. Stress, overwork, inadequate rest, and perpetual
distractions all interfere with short-term memory.
You would have seen this in a couple of movies too ! – a person would entrust his riches to another person for safe-keeping. The recipient would slip into the common condition (coma !) – a team would stand at his bedside to see when he wakes up and when he could reveal where the riches are kept !!
In good olden days, there
were no safe vaults and the like – rich would bury their treasures and would
even keep them embedded in walls ! ~ when a person suddenly develops
ill-health, all his relatives would stand by his side enquiring – how much of
wealth he possesses and more importantly where he has hidden them ! .. Periyazhwar advises us that before one
attains such stage – fall at the feet of Sriman Narayana and start doing good
things for the sampradhayam.
In this modern World,
people no longer write details of their wealth in a diary but keep them on
Computers – on protected Excel sheets, in their emails; e wallets and many more
places. We depend on Computer memory
even for remembering telephone numbers of our family members. How good is that – a Computer memory is just
like a human brain. It is used to store data and instructions. Computer memory
is the storage space in the computer, where data is to be processed and
instructions required for processing are stored.
How to keep a strong password
is another challenge - when you
protect your information is a great Science.
Remember movie Sivaji – where it was voice recognition and in trying to
crack they would try mimicry artistes !
.. Origin
is a mystery thriller from the stables of Dan Brown set predominantly in
Catalonia, Spain. After tussling with
the Illuminati, hunting for the Holy Grail and almost falling victim to a
deadly plague, Robert Langdon has to crack a password to access a great
presentation that will impact the world in a big way. A 40-year-old iconoclastic futurist, Kirsch
has already created a dust-up with global spiritual leaders after a sneak peek
of a new discovery that may answer the questions, “Where did we come from?” and
“Where are we going?” the protagonist Edmond
Kirsch, a billionaire philanthropist, computer scientist, futurist, and
strident atheist, sets such a strong password – that it is 47 characters long with a string of words and
characters; the final stanza of a famous religious poem and for remembering –
donates huge sum to a religious place to keep specific pages of that book kept
open in display inside a glass tablet.
Interesting !!
இதோ இங்கே நம் பெரியாழ்வாரின்
வாக்கு :
சோர்வினால் பொருள் வைத்ததுண்டாகில் சொல்லு சொல்லென்று சுற்றுமிருந்து
ஆர் வினவிலும்
வாய்திறவாதே அந்த காலம்அடைவதன் முன்னம்
மார்வமென்பதோர் கோயிலமைத்து
மாதவனென்னும் தெய்வத்தை நாட்டி
ஆர்வமென்பதோர் பூவிட
வல்லார்க்கு அரவ தண்டத்தில் உய்யலுமாமே.
உனது வாழ்நாளிலே எவ்வளவு பொருட்களை சம்பாதித்தாய் ! அவற்றை எங்கே எப்படி பத்திரப்படுத்தி இருக்கிறாய் ! - அந்த விவரங்களை சொல்லு, சொல்லு என்று சூழ்ந்து கொண்டு சுற்றத்தினரும், ஏனையோரும் கேட்டாலும், அவர்களுக்கு வாயை திறந்து சொல்ல முடியாத அல்லது அவ்விரங்கள் மறந்து போன அந்த கொடிய காலத்தை, மரணத்தை நோக்கி பயணிக்கும் அந்த காலத்தை அடைவதற்கு முன்பே - தமது நெஞ்சத்திலே இதயக்கோவில் அமைத்து, அதன் ஸந்நிதியில் ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணன் என்கிற அற்புத தெய்வத்தை எழுந்தருளப்பண்ணி (- அவரைக்குறித்து பக்தி என்கிற புஷ்பத்தை ஸமர்பிக்க வல்லவர்களுக்கு யமனது தூதுவர்களால் வரும் துன்பத்தினின்றும் தப்பிப் பிழைக்கலாகும். எனவே எப்போதும் ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணனை நினை - அவனடியார்களுக்கும் அவனுக்கும் கைங்கர்யங்கள் செய் என்கிறார் பெரியாழ்வார்.
There is a much bigger Q – on what is richness, what does
the World wants now ! – all our theories lay shattered as the biggest threat to
mankind, much bigger than the World wars is now attacking mankind. As the no. of cases increase, there would be
no value for money as rich too would remain afflicted but there is lurching
fear that cost of treatment could become out of the reach for commoners ! ..
.. The Tamil Nadu Government yesterday
announced more restrictions as part of its Covid-19 containment
strategy, including a bar on running shops other than those selling essentials
like vegetables and provisions. An official release said with effect from May 6
to 20, vegetable and provision shops located in commercial complexes have to
remain closed while standalone shops can be open only till noon with 50 per
cent customers. .. .. again curbs and
similar restrictions become laughing stock when people do not follow them and
there is no strict implementation.
Amidst all the din, there was quality entertainment from
9th April 2021 that kept millions inside the home in the evening
hours – now that too is gone ! IPL 2021 has been postponed,
following several positive Covid-19 cases across franchises over the past
couple of days. The move was confirmed by IPL chairman Brijesh Patel, who said
it was for the safety of all stakeholders. In a media statement, the IPL said
the decision was "unanimously" taken by the tournament's Governing
Council along with the top brass of the BCCI. "The BCCI does not want to
compromise on the safety of the players, support staff and the other
participants involved in organising the IPL," the statement said.
"This decision was taken keeping the safety, health
and wellbeing of all the stakeholders in mind.
The postponement comes a week after the BCCI reassured all stakeholders
and the eight teams that tournament bubble was "totally safe". That
note was sent out by the BCCI's interim chief executive officer Hemang Amin,
who told players they were playing the 2021 IPL not just to win, but for
something "much more important... humanity."
Miles away, the Communist Party of China (CPC) mocked
India over the deadly coronavirus, which began in Wuhan last year, wreaking havoc
in the country. An account on Chinese microblogging site Weibo, which was
linked to the Chinese Communist Party, posted a now-deleted photo over the
weekend of China launching a rocket, alongside an image of bodies being
cremated in India. The account on Weibo, China’s Twitter-equivalent, shared two
images side-by-side of a rocket launch in China and a cremation ground in
India, adding a message: “China lighting a
fire, India lighting a fire”. .. .. that is the cruel face of communism for the Global World and WHO which
ensured that the originator was never identified with its ill-effects. Several social media users expressed shock
and anger at the insensitivity of the post.
In challenging circumstances. We pray to Emperuman for
solace and saving us from all difficulties – reminiscing good times of the
past, here are some random photos from Sri Azhagiya Singar brahmothsavam of June
2010. Devotees can have darshan – those
kainkaryabarars in photos can feel happy vividly remembering those times when
they were young – a decade and an year ago !
