RULERS AND THE RULED. among homo sapiens


When dictators or charismatic one man rulers ( Example Gadaffi, Saddam, Xi , Putin, Mao, Stalin, Erdogan, Netanyahu,  MBD, Modi, Trump, Paki army rulers,  various gulf rulers, African rulers, Khomeni and Khamenei etc) are overthrown or die in office, after decades of rule,  the countries they rule find it tough to transit. 

Deviating a little, back home, one man or women  party in india ( AIDMK, Shiv Sena, NCP, DMK, Congress under Gandhis) are also like that. 


Where dictators ruled , chaos may prevail for years after they are no longer there.Or new ones emerge.  Democracies,  though, manage somehow. Kings and monarch or religion dominated political rules,   manage to have a succession plan and goes through with it,  albeit occasional killings happen before that. 

The only ones that go on with some stability are mature democracies like UK. West Europe, even immature democratic India, Canada, Australia, NZ and even the US( Trump is an exception and US under him is flirting with a egomaniacal  dictatorship).

Irans Khamenei was one such religious idealogy based political leader, who ruled for 32 yrs. A  long time. There is a 2nd and 3rd layer of succession plan in place , driven by the threat of assacination  by the  terror state Isreal. If there is no   occupation by US or Isreal  ground forces  or through a puppet as a  ruler( Venusuala,  Ukraine, SA, UAE , Iraq, Syria etc) the transition will be smooth. 

Greed , muscle power. economic power engulf humans since Adam and even times and it continue to do so. 

Making the human race an inferior species!

Red yellow and Green kuch kas

My car had stopped at a traffic signal. The types you find in this crumbling but upbeat city,  constantly reminding you that you are not supposed to be on the road and now that you are , would you  please wait for eons to pass by! This one counts from 1 to 130 and don't ask me in what units. Probably no one knows or cares.  A  score and few of these I sometimes encounter, if my work takes me away from my office down town. These breaks  are  , by design,  utilised to take a break from reading the Economic Times. A different world exists here. A world that, probably, employs business processes which are miles ahead of the e-commerce firms. There was one guy, who would have barely seen 18 winters, trying to assess if I was the right guy who can buy the pack of American apples he was pedalling. At times, I had seen another offering upholstery material, yet another the latest pulitzer winning hardcover or  vegetables , name it and you can find them. T...

I rebel so that you may survive….kuch kas

I rebel so that you may survive….kuch kas It began just like another day at school. The good old headmaster , nicknamed Drago, if my memory serves me right, had finished explaining the intricacies of the polynomial equation when the high pitched bell rang, calling an end to the math period. Out he went and soon enough few us followed. To go to the loo was the standard official reason. The minutes before the next period and away from the preying eyes of the Principal, was fun time. Pranks committed, the list of which will take reams of electronic space. Cricket scores, transactions involving buying hot botata vadas and roasted peanuts from the telewala who peddled it in front of the school, are few unmentionable ones. The logistics of how the botata vada exchanged ownership was as intricate as the Mumbai dabawala business system.  The class monitor, who occasionally happened to be yours truly, was part of the game. That was my way of getting the thugs to behave at other times....

1% BETTER EVERYDAY GOAL

 Someone posted some Gyan! Saying if you do 1% better everyday, in small increments and deeds, you will be reaching your goals!  Set me analysing it. Here are my thoughts on a lazy cloudy  saturday: The 1% better or improvements would tantamount to perfection i.e 100% in 100 days. You get to be where no human has been before. On the frontiers of being God himself. You may even replace Him as he too would not be 100% perfect, considering the mess He has created.  The problem with this approach is, however, multifold.  Firstly, there could be days where you slip 1% or even more. For example, the wife   may frequently  consider you useless!! So this means many more days than 100 to reach 100%. Secondly, as you reach closer to 100%, what physicists call as asymtotically approach 100%, the going gets tougher and tougher. You may never reach 100% Thirdly, Gods do not like competition.Remember King Mahabali, the most perfect King who ruled Kerala? Gods d...
