Gordon Radcliff’s plan was ironically rooted in America’s extensive seacoast defense system. On March 17, 1861, two weeks after the necessary two-thirds of Congress had sent the proposed 13th Amendment to the States for ratification and a week after the Confederate States of America approved emitting bills of credit directly, Gordon Radcliff attended a family reunion and dinner. Originally Gordon had planned to skip the reunion, so he could continue to concentrate on his work, to come up with some plan to move things forward. It was only after the ever-persistent nagging by his mother that he dutifully decided at the last minute to attend the function. If his mother only knew the ultimate cost of that nagging, she would have never enticed her son to attend. If she knew then the devastation her son would help instigate and his ‘reward’ for bringing it to his mentor’s attention, she would have taken far more drastic action than simply avoid nagging her son. After dinner, Gordon patiently listened, along with several other family members, to his patriotic cousin ramble on continuously about his second year of engineering s...

En «no entiende ce´l joven», la contracción «ce´l» se origina de«ce el» (ce, conjunción completiva; el, artículo determinante). Y en «la´descubierto» esta procede de «la ha descubierto» (la, artículo determinante; ha, verbo auxiliar del verbo principal conjugado en participio descubrir = ha descubierto ), que escrito en grafía moderna sería «la´descubierto». Entonces lo que vemos aquí es la contracción del verbo auxiliar «a» (ha) en la figura del apóstrofo ´ superpuesto atrás del verbo en participio "descubierto". Es aconsejable que las conjunciones, preposiciones, pronombres, verbos auxiliares, o cualquier otro elemento gramatical que no sea un verbo primario o principal pero susceptible a la contracción, ante la presencia de un artículo, mantengan su grafía –o categoría gramatical– intacta. Por ejemplo: –Ce el (Ce, conjunción ,el, artículo) = Ce´l; -Sobre el = sobre´l. Normalmente los artículos son los que sufren la pérdida de su vocales, aunque este principio no es obligatorio. Por ejemplo en la frase, «Ant´estas palabras», se evidencia la perdida de vocales en la preposición “Ante” y no en el artículo determinante “estas”. ¿Po...

Endowed with the personality that always remains inclined towards the truest secularism, I cannot afford to prefer one religion over the other. Therefore, it is not a difficult task for me to interact with a person of any faith. I cannot skip from my tract of `humanity before religion`. Being a firm believer in the existence of a `Supreme Power`, denoted by a variety of nomenclatures, I can adjust with followers of any mainstream of faiths. Even an atheist or an agnostic would not be treated as hostile at my hands, because I perceive every person as a human being before anything else. Nevertheless, it would be safer to understand me if the person keeps in mind that I am exposed to only those mainstreams of religion as practised in India. The Principles of Life (dear to my heart): (Formed on the basis of The experience derived through interaction since the childhood, with my parents, siblings, other kin around, my teachers, friends, schoolmates; later on with my pupils, my colleagues, friends, neighbours, co-travellers in a public transport, my clients and my colleagues at Bar and last but not the least my friends at coffee house...

...I grew up on my family’s small farm and helped my parents in their everyday work. I stayed on the farm without going school. I did not go far away from home; I stayed to help my parents. When I turned seven, my parents told me that I needed to go to school, which was 20 km away from our home, in a small town. I was excited, and I could not wait to go to school.

* * * Valmiki Ramayana – Greatest Medicine for Mankind The story of Ramayana is prescribed as textbook for students. Sita and Rama are worshiped as prime couple. No need to mention about reciting it. Whether Valmiki was satisfied with simple narration of the story? Seshendra Sharma denies it. He analyzed it mentioning that to understand the inner meanings of Valmiki Ramayana, the scientific knowledge is essential. The underlying secret of the sage’s mind will be known through the knowledge of science. It is the firm opinion of Seshendra that the argument that “the sciences are for scholars only” is a conspiracy hatched by Selfish scholars and lazy uneducated persons. Seshendra who has democratic ideology and conviction on science and literature informs the public about the secrets of Ramayana expounded by Valmiki. He explains that Valmiki dedicated ambrosia (The Greatest Medicine) named “Kundalini Yoga” to the mankind. The poetry in the metre of Anushtup Sloka is the honey coating to the medicine. It was explained with great introspection and exemplary scholarship. He concludes that the Ramayana is older than the M...

Sri Sundara Kanda is nothing but Kundalini yoga Many great secrets that are most venerable are given in Srimad Ramayana. Therefore, it became a sacred text which is daily read as a ritual. It would not have been elevated to such level if it were only a narration of a story. We do not read Manu Charitra* daily as a ritual. We do not consider that book as a means of achieving salvation. That is the difference between these two books. The great secrets in Ramayana are the most helpful to all seekers of salvation. It is so because Ramayana has Gayatri Mantra and Kundalini Yoga which are revealed in the Sundara Kanda. The very first verse of this Kaanda gives indication of that subject. The initial seven verses are like the head of this Kanda. The first verse is: ‘Tato Raavananeetaayaah Seetaayaah satrukarsanah iyesha padam anweshtum chaaranaa charite pathi’. It means;’ (Hanuman) who is a terror to the enemy decided to travel along the path which is followed by Charanas in search of Sita who was taken away by Ravana’. That is the meaning....
