The Philosophy

Gin stands up with difficulty, takes a few steps with caution . He sees nothing but empty white space covered with smoke everywhere around ... he walks a few more steps before which he turns around and suddenly finds a red board that reads
"Welcome to Gilmabad... You have reached the spot of self realization" !

'Gilmabad - the name surely rings a bell' thought Gin as he walked towards the red board. He was totally awake now and the fear of a new place had faded off. He reached the board and examined it closely. It did not look any different from a normal board that showed directions. But the only difference was there was no direction in this board.

'Which way is gilmabad in'? Gin thought to himself.

'the right way' a voice he heard from a distance.

Gin was shocked for a second. How can he hear a voice that responded to what he was thinking?. He had just seen the mokka baba film the week before when it was released but he was sure all these himalaya effect that was shown in the movie was the biggest mokka he had ever seen (of cors not as big as 'reddu' starring USA).

He looked around to see where the voice was coming from. At a distance he could see a moving object. It was perfectly round and was red in colour. The red colour was in total contrast to the white snow that filled the surroundings. Moreover there was only empty white space as far as one could see and the ball was the only non-static object that he could sense. The red thing that resembled a ball was moving (rather rolling) towards gin. He anxiously waited till it came near him. The ball rolled very close to him and stopped. It was a huge ball as high as his neck. He did not know what to do now.
'should i say hello to a ball?' he thought to himself.It felt a bit wierd. He decided against it and thought he should wait for the ball to make the first move.

A few seconds passed by. A sound was heard now. It was like a motor bike getting started. At the end of the sound, a totally unexpected thing happened. A face popped out from inside onto the top of the ball.

A face!


The face was smiling at him.
Gin could not remain silent now
"You... You... i have seen you before"

The same voice that replied to this thoughts earlier replied now. But this time it was from the face on the top of the ball

"Sure you have"

"But where?"

"Well, in a mirror"


Gin was taken aback. Yes! It did resemble him!

"But only your face resembles me... your body looks like a ball"

The face smiled. It felt as if gin was looking into a mirror and frowning yet the mirror was laughing !

"When did you last see yourself in a full sized mirror?"

Gin fell silent.

'oh my god... do i look like a ball then?' he thought to himself.

"Not really Gin. I don't have a shape for myself. I take the shape and look of the latest human being who turned gilma right at the moment they become one.... Some s/w bug.. iam currently in transition phase...thats why the face-body mismatch"

"But... But... how do you guess what i speak in my mind?"

"Great Gilma's think alike ! Moreover this is my land.. my place.. i rule here .. i know everything that happens here.. this is not like the world you live in"

"are you .... are you..."

"Go ahead...ask what you are thinking"

"are you... GOD?"

"oh.. no..not completely .. iam just a Gilma"

"i don't understand... what is 'not completely'? can you please explain... and where am i now? who are you? why am i here?"

"Ok...lets take it slow... here we go ...God is too busy doing good things for the world .. for the people who are really in need of him ...really in search of him .. so he has outsourced certain responsibilities to me... if you want me to explain in the language that you understand, consider that i am a micro-kernel of god!"

"micro-what?"

"hmm ... better stop skipping OS classes dude"

" watever .. so what about my remaining questions? why am i here?"

"I answered that before .. you became a gilma just now ..just when you saw your friend R talking over the phone and so you are here"

"R... oh R" Things came to Gin's mind in a flash ... the aaryaas walk.. the chinna vaazha mokka joke .. then R...R talking on the cellphone while he thought he was sick and was in bed.


"Yes... your dear friend R"

"R.. yes.. he is my dear friend... what happened to him?"

"The 'happening' is not for him my boy...its for you"

"what do you mean?"

"Why did you faint when you saw R speaking with a girl on the cell?"

"I ... I ...i don't know .. i felt uncomfortable"

"because he was talking to a girl without your knowledge"

"no..not really.. but may be...yes...that could be it"

"Why should you feel uncomfortable when your friend talks with a girl whom you don't even know well"

"well ... i don't have an explanation .. but how do i get over this problem"

"FLOWER SHOWER"

"Flower -what?"

"Its a mystic technique that you must practise... not only you...every gilma practises this... it is like pranayama in yoga...it is like taking guard in cricket...it is the first step that a gilma must do ... it is the foremost beginning of the philospohy of gilma"


"What should one do?"

"If you are a gilma-girl and you see a handsome guy ... or if you are a gilma-guy and you see a attractive girl , lift your right hand .. make it into cone shape .. and just push it forward towards the girl/guy"

"what does that signify"

"it is as if you are showering flowers over the attractive girl or the handsome guy"

"what does flower shower exactly mean?"

"it is like showering flowers over a couple when they get married... we wish the girl/guy a happy life... and that will end all our and their troubles"

"wow... am falling for it already"

"try it out... it works"

"sure.. i will spread the word in my world... let the philosophy of flower showering take over !"

" welcome to the gang!"


"Thanks ... can i take leave now?"

"of course you can... all the best for your new journey ..and a new perspective ... i will come back to you whenever you are in trouble"

"oh.. thanks a lot... but..hey...wait a minute mr.reflection"

"yes sir"

"i don't know your name yet.... how do i call you when i need you"

"pray"

"but how"

There was only a smile from the other end as the face over the ball slowly pushed itself inside the ball and vanished.

The ball started to roll back to where it came from... after it went away from eyes sight, gin turned around in disappointment for not having got answer to his question.

The moment he turned, he heard a voice. This time it did not come from outside. It was from within.... it sounded strange .. yet it was soothing and comfortable ....
it had a unusual melody and ring to it.... there were not many words used... in fact the music was made of a single word...

gilmananda !


And Gin slowly fainted down to get back to the real world where he belonged to .... where he would spread the magical philosophy of gilmananda ...

The First Explosion

Sunday Afternoon.
Gin and a few other friends (F1 , F2 up til Fn) are walking slowly towards Aaryaas. (Definition: The hotel that got crowded thanks to the wonderful cooks in the hostel mess). R is not to be found anywhere in the vicinity.

As these people aimlessly talk and walk towards Aaryaas, a not so unusual stupid conversation begins.

F1: " Gin Machan... indha ponnungala correct pandradhila nee periya aalu nnu solraanga... apdiya?"

Gin: "Dei .. evanda sonnan... konjamaavadhu yosinga da ... sunday madhiyanam .. sambandamey illama ungaloda suthikittu irukken ... idhukku appuramumaa enna paathu apdi kekka thonudhu"

F2: "Machan...unakku theriyaadhadhu illa..irundhaalum solren.... indha maari vishayathula rendu category la pasanga irupaanga da... oru category peru "chinna vaazha"... unnoru category peru "periya vaazha" "

Gin: "Dei.. yennada, technical terms laam pudusaa irukku.... adhu ennada adhu? chinna vaazha , periya vaazha"

F2: "Simple Machan... thanakku set aagaatiyum vidaapidiyaa mathavangalukku set panna idea tharaaney ...avan periya vaazha... adhaavadhu periya vaazha maram maadhiri.... vetti payalaa irundhaalum mathavan kodukara idea va apdiyey implement panni settle aaraan paaru...avan chinna vaazha...adhaavadhu chinna vaazhamaram maadhiri"

F1: "Machan... enakku oru doubt...Vaazha marathukkum figure set pandradhukkum ennada sambandham? kovilukku pora ponnugala vaazha pazham, poo, draatchai ...idhellam koduthaa correct aagumnu solla variya? Kaasu selavaagumey da"

F2: "Excellent da... unnoda inference skills peak la irukku... aaryaas poi full meals saapidaradhukku mattum unnoda moutha use pannu... theva illama rendu arivaalinga discuss pannum podhu naduvula mooka nozhaikaadha...purunjudhaa"

F1: "Dei...enakku oru mokka joke thonudhu... sollama irukka mudila...sollidavaa?"

F2: "Ayyo...ivan tholla thaanga mudilayey... solli thola"

F1: "Vaaya moodunnu sollittu Mooka nozhaikaadhannu solriyey da...ha ha ha ha"

Silence prevails for the next one minute. All people stand still wherever they are. Finally Gin speaks.

Gin: "F2 ... vittudu... unnoda nelamayila yaar irundhaalum ivana serupaala adikanumnu dhaan thonum... aanaa epdi paathaalum ivan namma settu...so ivana indha oru murai mannichi vittudu"

F2 (after a heavy sigh) : "seri vittu thola... vera edhaavadhu topic pathi pesuvom"

Gin: "Sollu...vera enna intersting matter?"

F2: " aah... un kitta kekkanum kekkanum nnu nenachikittey irundhen...marandhutten.... R enga Gin?" (sarcastically laughs after saying this)

Gin: "ennada sirippu... R kku odambu seri illa...hostel la paduthirukkaan"

F2: "Hostel la paduthirukaanaa.... namba mudilayey" (laughs again)

Gin: "Machan ... R ennoda uyir nanban da... ava eppo enga irupaannu enakku perfect aa theriyum ... aana paavam ippo avanukku odambu seri illa... adhaan paduthu thoongittu irukaan ... enna lunch parcel panni vaangittu vera vara sonnaan ...adukku dhan naan ippo mukkiyama aaryaas varen"

F2 :" Deeeei... anga paaru da" (points towards a direction)

Shock ! Shock ! Shock!

R is seen at the corner walking swiftly back and forth talking in a cellphone with a wide wide grin. (Of cors, it has to be a girl on the other end.... it has to be)

After a few seconds of grave like silence, F2 comments with a loud voice
F2: "Machi ... avan anga aircel service la sincere aa irukaan ... nee avanukku parcel service la sincere aa irukka... arumayaana nanban da nee"


Gins head rotates at tremendous speed !!!!
The world in front of Gin rotates at tremendous speed !!!
echo from north "arumayana nanban da nee nee nee"
echo from south "arunmayana nanban da nee nee nee"
echo from east "arumayana nanban da nee nee nee"
echo from all directions together "nee nee nee"

The trees in front blacken out !
R standing at the othercorner blackens out!
F1 to Fn - all blacken out!
The clouds above blacken out!
The atmosphere around thickens and blackens out !
Everything blackens out !
Everything!
GIn falls down with a thud.


When he wakes up after what it feels like millions and millions of years, he is totally surprised and in a way confused and afraid to find himself in a magic land covered with smoke everywhere around.

He stands up with difficulty, takes a few steps with caution . He sees nothing but empty white space covered with smoke everywhere around ... he walks a few more steps before which he turns around and suddenly finds a red board that reads
"Welcome to Gilmabad... You have reached the spot of self realization" !


(to be continued)

Tough Programming Problems in SHE (C)

Evening time-Just after sunset while things are still visible without lights/bulbs. (oh reader..common... this is the original bulb) .

Gin and R are walking along the road to college from the hostel . As usual the conversation begins at a pointless point.

R : "Machan"

Gin : "Solda"

R: "Indha road kku yenda 'beach' road nnu peru"

Gin: " indha road kku 'beach' road nnu peru nnu unakku evan sonnan?"

R : "adhu namakku theva illa... indha road kku 'beach' road nnu peru nnu assume pannikittu sollu... indha road kku yen beach road nnu perunnu"

Gin: "dei... en moonjiya paathaa epdi irukku unakku"

R: " un moonjiya pathi ippo namakku theva illa... naan ketta kelvikku mattum badhil sollu"

Gin: "enna da aachu unakku?"

R: "enakku enna aachunnu ippo namakku..."

Gin: "niruthuda *** "

R: ""

Gin: ""

Silence prevails for two mins. They both reach the hostel gate without talking a word and come out of it.
They look at each other.

Gin: "machaan sorry da"

R: " free a vidu... thappu pannitta.... thirundhi mannippu kekkara...mannichi vittudaren"

Gin: "Dei... naan sorry adhukku sollala da"

R: "aprom?"

Gin: "kaasu kondu varadhukku badhilaa unnoda ID carda kondu vandutten da ... ippo NMB poga mudiyaadhu" [for people who don't know, NMB is the internationally acclaimed food court near the hostel where Gin and R stay. In simple tamil it is called as "pekary"]

R: "muttal... ippo ennada pandradhu"

Gin: "unnoda ID carda adagu vechaalum oru fruit cake kooda thara maataney da NMB la"

R: "dei.. comedy pannaama yosi da"

Gin: "machan.... ketta nerathulayum oru nalla neram da"

R: "enna da solra?"

Gin: "anga paaru da... yaarunnu"

R looks at the direction that Gin points towards.

R: "dei.. P da.... dei... unakkey kevalamaa illa... ava kitta poi pathu rooba kodunnu kekka solriyaa.... ennoda prestige enna aagaradhu"

Gin: "machan... pathu rooba nnu yen kekkara...ten bucks nnu kelu da... prestige maintain aayidum"

R: "nakkal pannaadha da"

Gin: " idhukku dhaan nee innum yennoda sishyanaavey irukka... opportunity knocks the door only once ... to open the door or not is totally under our control"

R:(hand over mouth) "ennada periya vaartha ellam pesara"

Gin: " dei.. ava kitta poi kaasu ketta unnoda prestige korayumnu enakku theriyaadhaa... naan unna apdi panna vittuduvenaa?"

R: "ennada romba nallavanaaitta"

Gin: "loosu maari pesaama po"

R: "ippo polaangariya"

Gin: "dei... seekiram poda... namma pasanga neraya perukku 'arrays' la strongu "

R: "aahaa... seri odaney poren... ID carda kodu"


R enters college while Gin walks casually towards NMB [reason left to the imagination of the reader].



P enters lift.
[two minutes later]
R takes the stairs.

P reaches 4th floor.
[two minutes later]
R reached 4th floor.

P opens glass door and enters lab.
[two minutes later]
R extends his hands to open the glass door. But then at the corner of his eyes, he sees someone outside far away messaging in a mobile. He suddenly realises that it is 'none but Gin' and is shocked to death. Gin messaging someone !! mysterious ! He now watches gin walking on the road more carefully and in the meantime opens the door and ......

PHHHAATTTT....
DDDAASSHHHHH....
DAMAMAMAMAMAMAMA....

A series of unworldly sounds that can come only from a girls hands when she slaps a guy on the face back and forth is heard. R realises in terror that his cheeks are paining and so the guy involved can be only him.... he turns towards the door in horror to see the state of things...

He sees the rowdy girl E - his classmate....

"Hi E ... how are you"



"Enna E... oru maadhiri irukka ... any problems??"



"Inga yaaro yaaraiyo adichaa maari..." . He realises that instead of holding the doors knob, he is holding E's hands.

"E ... E ... "

"kaiyya edukariyaa illa HOD kitta complaint pannava?"

"oh... appo kayya eduthaa HOD kitta complaint panna maatiyaa ...romba romba thanks... aala vidumaa saami"

R runs back to the stairs without a stop. As he reaches the ground floor in the 18th second from when he started, his cellphone beeps twice.

Message Number 1:

Sender - P
Message - "ha ha"

Message Number 2:

Sender - Gin
Message - "Enna machan... 'Hands on' Arrays training aa ...kalakku"

R comes running into Gin's room.
R: "Machan... kadhava saathu kadhava saathu"

Gin is lying on his bed reading a tamil novel.
Gin : "Nee dhaanda kadhava thorandhuttu ulla vandha...nee dhaan da kadhava saathanum"

Gin: "machi... namma alavukku adhigamaavey techniqueaa use pannittom... ippo stop pannikuvom...bulbaa off pannidu.. let us wait for their response.. the ball is in their court"

R and Gin keep staring like dogs out of the window right on to the ladies hostel window... they trees are silent. The wind is silent. There is darkness everywhere. No sound. Absolutely. Not even the sound of breath. Perfect silence.

Suddenly the cellphone vibrates vigorously with a loud ringtone.

R:(talks such that air comes out as slowly and cautiously from his mouth) : machi

Gin: (talks in similar fashion) : enna?

R: "message"

Gin: "pirichi padi"

R reads the message . And after a second or two, hands over the cell to Gin.

Gin reads the message aloud.
"tube lights can afford to burn out bulbs. but we can't"

R: "edhukku ennada artham"

Gin: "machi"

R: "sollu machi"

Gin: (shouts at the peak of his voice) "Idhudhaandaa original bulbuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" !!!!!!!!!!

[applause]

THE TUESDAY MONA LISA

Gin, carrying his huge body ran as fast as he could into R’s room. R was lying on his bed comfortably with legs one over the other, hands tied behind his head and a ball pen cap in his mouth, and a romantic look towards the ceiling of the room. It seemed to the ordinary viewer that someone was discussing a love story with R through the creaks of the ceiling.

Gin rushed into the room shouting.
Gin: “Machaaan !!!!! “

R : “dei Gin …. Cha… nalla kanavu da… kalachitta…. Nee vaazhka pooraa saamiyaaraadhaan irukka pora… idhu ennoda saabam”

Gin :” seri machan… naan kovilukku kelambaren”

R : “all the best da…. Bajji sooda irukkattum… bye bye”


At this moment , somebody knocks heavily on the door. Gin walks towards to door and opens it. A tall dark well built man of around 40 years of age is seen standing in front. He immediately starts shouting at R.
“ Dei R…. nee innum 50 rooba baaki vechirukka…. Ippo panatha edhuthu vekkalainna warden kiita complain panniduven… aprom innonnu kettukko… inimel kandippa unnoda thuniyellam naan thuvaikka maatten…. Seri seri…panatha edu”

Dhobi : “ Gin thambi… edho neenga solreengannu poren…. Ivana innoru naal gavanichikaren”

The Dhobi starts walking out. Suddenly he remembers something and turns to Gin’s side.

Dhobi: “Gin thambi…. Indha sattaya potukitta college poneenga..? indha sattayila akkulaa perusaa oru kizhisal irukkey…. Class la ipdi apdi kaiyya thookineenga, ellarum paathu siripaanga thambi…. Seri naan kelambaren”

Tortoise surul…..Flashback….

“Attendance please…. Gin”

“yes ma’am”

Stop.
Rewind.
Pause.
Play.

“Yes ma’am”

Stop.
Zoom.

The picture that u are imagining is simple enough.

Gin stands up in his desk, raises his hand above as much as possible and answers the attendance with a loud voice “yes ma’am”.
Of cors he was not looking at “ma’am” while saying that.
And of course “she” was not laughing on Tuesdays without a reason!
