Fallacies - Day 1


After a long time...
  Its like a bear waking up from its hibernation, Man kind reaching heights of evolution, such is the time since I last wrote what was in my mind.
  Masters program is not the enemy here for he tried teaching me express myself in new ways. I started speaking new languages and english became a banal language.
  For I'm a man who cherished and fantacised english for a long time, seem to have forgotten the natural taste. A language that became part of human life, evolving together with age without getting tarnished, without losing its charm, has somehow been cornered by languages that make humans think less and make lazy. What is the reason all these single lettered languages became so important in my life that I forgot how to live one?

  To be honest, I should not blame the languages that cornered english, for I was given a choice, a choice that I knew before, it took me so long to realise as to why I made the choice. Perhaps, The Oracle was right. You have already made all your choices, you are living your life just to understand and realise why you made all those choices. Its a characteristic of my brain that had an inherent fetish in learning new things, never realised its cornering old things to the corner. Till now I made an excuse quoting wordsworths' words "You always cut it short to let it grow again" and since now it has been true in practical life.

  Perhaps the serene silence infront of me might have sent in some impulses to my brain to express in words, which the single lettered languages lack. Is a person supposed to express this silence in a language that can be reproduced later by some other brain? Can those lines of code send in the same emotions?

  Well if emotions are just a stimulus to the changes in the environment and if they are ultimately going to be conveyed to the brain as electric impulses then why not feed the samething directly? What is the problem in that? In a group of children you had to shout at the top of your voice for silence.If you have to curb violence you had to take it in your hands.

  Am I making excuses for myself for being part of this empty world of mine? Has life taken a toll on me? What happened to the unflinching, untettered  personality in everybody. People cross legs while running marathon, yeah who does not? Why shouldn't they?''

Kingmaker - The Joseph version.

The ape descendant creature was at his 80's. One of the big shots in his society and entered into forbes list of wealthiest men at the age of 30. He realised that he has succesully taken a huge leap in accomplishing his first step in revolutionising his country. He aimed in a system that was devoid of everything that the current system possess. Owing to the limited space available in this universe I neglect the longgg list of incosistencies and holes that exists in the current system. His first step of gathering his own army to wage a war against the current system was accomplished.


He had his plan formulated with atmost intricacies as technology and people evolved along with the system. His plans were layed out,but were revealed to none, for distant future that his aim in reforming the system would on no probable event might fail. All he did was to hunt for the best minds in the world and gathered them around him, funded them, trained them with the right knowledge, and teached them the philosophy that he follows - 'Socialism'. He was very particular in choosing his candidates to act as a support for his plan. All he did was to give an inception to what he had already planned. He briefed his entire plan to his battalion which stood in amazement. With his plans in progress through some of the best minds in the world
that he chose, he planned to make his egress.At the fall of this one ape descendant creature the entire nation filled itself with tears while a bunch of reformists realised their next step.All that he formed was no terrorist organization aiming for the reign of a religion throughtout the world nor communist community fighting for meaningless impractical issues.

All that he left over after his death was his battalion and his memoir...

Kingmaker- The Young Guy...

The young chicken finished his college that has got no mentions to be made. It was yet another college in which one could study. It was probably one of the gravest mistakes that the younker thought he did to ruin his life. His youthful life was fraught with all bad memories that the younker never even wished to recollect. 'Purgatory' was the only name that he could give to his college, probably because of the college management trying to disproove darwin, failing to exhibit signs of evolution after 18th century. It was during this period that the young guy went out to be a nomadic- First act of search in darkness. Trying to find the reason why he was born, the question that popped in every rational mind, the purpose of existence. He sauntered in an aimless fashion yondering around places. Even though being placed himself in a reputed company he felt a huge space in him, a space that ought to be filled to complete the answer for his questions.

One day accidentally he stumbled onto a book that made him fill the gap. It was about a revolutionary who saved the entire country from the clutches of united states of america. The revolutionary is now considered to be the edifice of communism, it was neither carl marx nor fidel castro. The younker was suffering from low latent inhibition a state that would make brain to open more to external stimulus. This might be one of the reasons for his attitude towards the change in the system. As a result he views each and everything in detail and analyses the consequences of expecting a change in the system. The state of low latent inhibition might cause a person to psychotic or to be of atmost creative, but the young was a collage of the two.


The younker with his mustache and beard started to roam around searching for renevations that need to be made to the system. He was into the act of fault finding in a system that eventually proved to be a fault in its entirety. It had the characteristics of crushing the poor and making the useless to flourish. The fact is that useless creatures that were considered to be useless actually exhibited serious signs of intelligence that one among the fools even made huge profits in the railway sector of a nation. The subversive mind looked upon his society with disdain. He loathed the system to such an extent that he started to hate each of the basic elements of the system. One day a bulb started to glow and illuminated ideas in him that others would think 'frivolous'.

Kingmaker - Schooling.

The next year he was in a school that was at the heart of the city with full exposure to good knowledge. The art of cramping up facts, a knowledge still considered to be on par to what einstein did to humanity.Aiming for a better aesthatics the boy entered the school with cherubic spirits (with a a circle around his head). But the school turned out to be a store house of mockery, scorn,scoff in what ever way you put it. He was bullied and was sent out of the class- First act of impuissance under ingnorance. The right simile that could be given for this situation could be like 'putting a hot heavy iron rod through one's buttocks'. He got stranded and was left all alone with full of challenges to be accomplished to save his dignity. It was at his ninth grade that the boy realised his true potential - nothing. It was like the crude of reality whirling around him.


Mathematics was what brought back his respect and dignity. It was a math test which was not anounced of its coming, that made him start to peel off the rust around his brain. Since it exhibited no activities from his early childhood and was as fresh as an unused cabbage it started to show some instant reactions to some of the impulses that were sent to it refering a math problem that was given to solve. The boy solved it in a way that none in the class thought off, the fledgling's right brain started to flex its muscles and said in the most coloquial way 'Sappa matter machi...'. The act of praise and adulation made him work more towards his academics and the boy finished his schooling in way that was never expected.

Kingmaker - 10-16

The image of the family never 'faltered' him for he was a boy of very young age to understand such complex human emotions. He had the conscience that he was not performing well in his academics but he couldn't help it in anyway for he had no habit of reading books nor devoting some time for academics. All his activities were directed in a single direction 'Hedonism'. He was provided with facilities and the food to cherish and a good amount of 'bad' friends to eulogise about him in his presence and disparage him at his absence. To be true he was what he was said at his back. His parents fearing their son's current stature and again in an attempt to provide better education decided to move to an even more sophisticated life style. It was a life style that exhibited these characteristics - Living in multi storey buildings having a colony like thing and form an association for the colony and a 'legacy' club for the colony where only the colony members are allowed to join and participate in what is called 'recreational activities'(One can argue with atmost confidence that these colony members have their descendants from africa for they exhibit the worst tribal form of entertainment like running around a chair).

Their first attempt initially failed as the boy was not accepted in any of the schools that were in the 'sophisticated' lifestyle prone section of their state. One of his aunts had great influence in a school and that the head mistress of the school accepted to take the ward even though he pathetically failed to fulfill any of their criteria. But the boy refused to join the school-First act of dignity. In an attempt to vent out his sorrow and anger towards him he went inside a room and started to weep badly for he was an ordinary boy without much productivity- a nincompoop.

Kingmaker-The Amateur

Who is a kingmaker? I ask this question quiet often when i hear it in movies and read it in novels.

On November 11th 1980 a boy was born in a family which was in the brink of its poverty. Even though both the beings of the family earned, it was quite a tough job, like pushing a mountain with a finger, to make both the ends meet. They were not the one who were termed as "a family below the povery line" as stated by the drinking class of the society, but was on the level that a naivette like me would refer as 'were at their lower level of middle class'. Even a chocolate for the kid was tough for they have to put a budget to buy one. The Father was quite enough educated man, but not quite enough to the level what he could have studied(!!), and the mother was too a decently educated women, quite a lot educated considering her childhood circumstances and family background. With atmost caressing of the child he grew to be well mannered, etiquette conscious boy for his age. Since they were put up in a country side the lady mother wanted her son to get a better education. Hence in an effort to provide a better education, by better education what they mean of is to join the kid in a school which lodges over a 1000 children and handful of 'most' useless teachers,the family moved on to the urban side. But, on the contrary the boy began to show an evolutionary pattern that was not expected. He made himselves accompanied or engulfed in bad company and studied nothing. Worries started to haunt their minds and tears rolled over their eyes but the boy exhibited only a single emotion 'Eternal happiness', a happiness that one would get one realised that he has acheived everything in his life, a happiness that one would get if one is being symbolised as a hero, Of course the boy was not of that sort.It was during his fifth grade he saw the cry of this father for the first time when things began to fall out of his hand. The sight is still filled as a horrified image in the boy's head, probably an animation. He saw the whole collapse of his family when he atlast saw his mother crying, crying out desperately, but in a clandestine manner without showing her emotions to the boy child, for the sole reason that his son was going in the wrong direction.
