Star Wars IV : Explained

We have talked about the first three Star Wars movies in the past article, though released later they were the prequels. Episodes IV – VI pick up nearly almost 20 years after episode III where we last saw the twins separated and Anakin become the Sith Lord Darth Vader. The galactic republic is turned into the galactic empire ruled by the Sith lord Darth Sidious also known as Emperor Palpatine. A rebel alliance was formed in the interim period to fight against the tyrannical rule of Sidious, Vader and his forces have decimated the Jedi Order. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jedi Grand Master Yoda are still in hiding, waiting for the perfect time to strike.

The story starts with the rebel alliance receiving stolen plans, the stolen plans belong to a planet destroying space station known as the Death Star. Princess Leia Organa the senator to Alderran is secretly one of the rebel leaders obtains the stolen plans on her ship. Her ship is intercepted by a Imperial Starship under the command of Anakin Skywalker that gave up his old identity and ways to be the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Leia hides the schematics in a droid R2-D2 before she is captured by Vader. The droid evades capture along with its companion C3-PO by using an escape pod to land on the planet Tatooine.

The two droids are captured by the Jawa traders and sold to moisture farmer Owen and Beeru Lars. Owen tasks his nephew Luke Skywalker with cleaning the droids, Luke discovers the message from Leia directed to General Obi-Wan Kenobi. Luke takes restraints off R2-D2 and C3-PO out of kindness, R2-D2 determined to complete his mission leaves the Skywalker farm. Luke is attacked by the Sand people while he’s looking for R2 and is saved by Ben Kenobi an old hermit that lives in the outskirts.

Luke talks to Ben and it is revealed that Ben Kenobi is indeed Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan tells Luke about his life as a Jedi Knight and tells him about his father Anakin. Obi-Wan tells Luke about his father who was a respected Jedi Knight and an accomplished star pilot, he tells Luke that Vader killed Anakin. Obi-Wan decides to deliver R2 to Bail Organa as requested by Leia, Bail is a fellow rebel veteran adoptive father to Leia. Luke initially declines Obi-Wan’s offer to teach him the way of the Force and help the rebels, Luke accepts when he finds his house burned to the ground by Storm Troopers looking for the droids on the orders of Vader.

Luke and Obi-Wan search for a transport to reach Alderran, they end up hiring smuggler Han Solo and his ship the Millennium Falcon. Pursued by the minions of local mobster Jabba The Hut and stormtroopers Obi-Wan, Luke, the droids and solo board the Falcon along with Solo’s co-pilot Chewbacca.

Alderran is destroyed by Death Star Commander Grand Moff Tarkin while interrogating Leia about the rebel base. The Falcon unaware of the destruction travel to Alderran and is captured by the Death Stars tractor beam. Obi-Wan sneaks his way to stop the death stars tractor beam and asks the others to stay put. Luke convinces Solo and Chewie to help him rescue Leia who is about to be executed by Tarkin. After disabling the tractor beam Obi-Wan fight his former student and sacrifices his life to allow the others to escape the death star. Unbeknownst to the group, The falcon is tracked by the Death star to the rebel base of Yavin 4.

The schematics of the Death star reveal a weakness, an exhaust port that can be used to destroy the entire space station. Luke joins in the squadron of X-Wing pilots on an attack against the slowly approaching Death star. The rebels face heavy losses against the Death star but Solo who left after collecting his reward comes back to assist the rebels. Solo knocks Vader’s TIE Fighter off course before he could shoot Luke, Luke using this opportunity uses the force to guide the missiles to the vulnerable exhaust port. The Death star is destroyed at the last minute and the rebels celebrate their victory. Solo and Luke are awarded medals for their bravery against the Imperials.

We will pick up the next chapter soon so stay tuned. Until then may the Force be with you.

THE CONTINUATION ( MAHABHARAT)

LAKSHAGRAHA (the lac house)

After the deaths of Pandu and Madri the Pandavas with their mother Kunti return back to the Hastinapur palace. Yudhishthira is Crowned Prince of Hastinapur by Dhritarashtra.But  Dhritarashtra also wanted his son Duryodhana to crowned as the king of Hastinapur.

Uncle Shakuni, Duryodhana, and Dushasana plan to get rid of the Padu’s Son the Pandavas. Shakuni ask architect Purochana to build the palace which can catch fire easily. He then requests for the Pandavas and Mother Kunti to stay there and plan to set it alight. However, after all this incident set by the Shakuni, Duryodhana and Dushasana the Pandavas escape with the help of  their wise uncle,Vidur. They escaped to safety and go into hiding. During this time one of the Pandava’s brother Bhima marries Hidimbi who was a demon, and they had a child son named Ghatotkacha. And in Hastinapur, the Pandavas and Kunti were declared to dead.

DRAUPATI’S MARRIAGE

During the period when the Pandavas was hiding, got to find the swayamvara of the princess of Pancala Draupati. The Pandavas witness the event being as bharmhin. Meanwhile, Krishna and Draupati became good fridends, and tells her to look out for Arjuna (which was considered to be dead). The competion was shoot a target on the ceiling, on the eye of a moving artificial fish while looking at the reflection of the fish in oil below., Karna proceeds to the attempt but by Draupadi refuses to marry a. After all this the swayamvara got opened to all the Brahmins hence the Arjuna wins the competion and marries Draupadi. The Pandavas return home and Arjuna inform their mother about what he have won in the copetion and what they have got after winning  the competion. Without even looking at anyone, Kunti asks them to share whatever Arjuna has won among all five brother. Thus, Draupadi ends up being marrying and being wife of all five brothes.

INDRAPRASTHA

After being married, the Pandava werecalled up in the Hastinapura. The Kuru family didn’t liked that the Pandavas got married to one lady at a time hence his made all five brother and Draupati to leave the kindom and led them to build their own kingdom at Indraprastha.

Soon after this, Arjuna seceratly marries Krishna’s sister, Subhadra.

As times passed the Pandavas built their new palace for them, They also  invite their Kaurava cousins to Indraprastha, Duryodhan seeing a pond and assumes it will not have any water in it and falls in. All Pandava brothers (except Yudhishthira) everyone laughed at him including Draupadi. Furious by the insult, and jealous at seeing the wealth of the Pandavas, Duryodhana decides to arrange a dice-game as suggested by Shakuni.

THE GAME OF DICE

Shakuni, Kaurava’s uncle, arranges a dice game,played against Pandavas elder brother Yudhishthira. In the game of dice, Yudhishthira loses all his wealth, then his kingdom. And then he also gambles his brothers, himself, and finally his wife Draupati. The Kauravas then get chance to take their revenge for Duryodhan’s insult and this leads to disrobe Draupadi in front of the entire court, but this disrobe is prevented by Krishna, who magically made her saree endless, therefore it couldn’t be removed.

After all  Duryodhana says there is no place for two crown princes in Hastinapura. Hence Dhritarashtra orders for another game of dice. After the second game of dice now the Pandavas are required to go into exile for 12 years, and in the 13th year, they must remain hidden. And if they were seen by any kaurava in their 13th year of exile, then they again have to go for 12 year of exile.

THE KURUKSHETRA BATTLE.

Soon after the completion of 13 years of exile, the Pandavas return back to Hastinapur.

The battle took place because of the disrespect of the Draupati in the court during dice game.She wanted not to repeat this injustice and torture to any other women in the Hastinapur.Hence lord Krishna was always with the Panadav and guided them during the war. The war was of 18 days. At the end of the 18-day battle, only the Pandavas,Yuyutsu, Ashwatthama and Krishna survive. Yudhisthir becomes King of Hastinapur and Gandhari curses Krishna that he will also face the same situation as she faced.

Get acquainted with Slow thinking!

Our mind is an universal miracle! It’s incredible to acknowledge that our mind has the capability to process much more thoughts, than the count of the molecules. Our stream of consciousness is about 15,000 words per minute. But the control is in our hands. It is possible to predict and have a control on the prudent aspects of our life, by being a master of our mind and its thinking process. Thomas Edison’s famous saying is that ” Thinking is the hardest work of all, which is why most people avoid it at all costs.” Thus the term ‘Think‘ plays an inevitable role in each stage of our life.

So, developing the habit of thinking is one of the best thing that we do for ourselves; but how does we think matters a lot because, ‘thinking’ is a kind of ardent skill that one should carry over. This process is done with the basis of the partial informations and available statistics which may lead to cognitive bias and it is important to be careful before we think as the available sources of informations may not be trusted. Let’s get landed into the so-called Slow thinking which contrasts from the fast thinking. These two thinking styles differs as the former would be called as something that is conscious, effortful and logical process and the latter would be termed as unconscious, frequent and automatic.

Fast thinking is the course of making decisions quickly such as while driving a car in a traffic. Such decisions are made with less considerations as it takes most of its role in our daily life situations. It doesn’t matter whether one orders for a hamburger or sandwich, but he/she is definite to grab a delicious dish! Whereas slow thinking should be considered with little difference as it costs for long-term decisions with preferable consequences. Determination of a goal can be quoted as a good example. It may be disastrous to use fast thinking in such circumstances. This concept cannot be bound with such long-term aspects, but also with the decision making in situations such as, to turn the focus towards the clown in a circus and giving someone our telephone number. Certain decisions which are made at the moment, may have long lasting impacts. Even turning the focus from a central black dot towards the surrounded white sheet requires slow thinking. In this way it could be evinced that slow thinking drives our mind in a unique manner, which may also enhance oneself with good attitude and perseverance.

So the very title, why is it necessary for us to get acquainted with Slow thinking? The reply is; according to scientists the speed of information processing of the human mind could be calculated with the inverted ‘U’ shape. The thinking speeds up from childhood to adolescence and then gradually slows down as the age increases and that’s why we hear our grandma’s or grandpa’s say that they tend to forget things easily. The relative stability in our thinking process is maintained in the youth period. The frontal and parietal cortex, which is most of the brain is responsible for analytical decision making and as the age surpasses, the white matter of the brain tears which is connected by the apron cells.

Thus, all our mind is trained to run towards the future in accordance with the conventions. Since our life is oriented with futuristic goals, it is important to practice slow thinking, in accordance with the long-term consequences. The adolescent and the youth period of life is the important stage as the energy is reserved to direct them towards our plans and it is essential to practice the habit of slow thinking especially during this time, as our measures would be directed in futuristic way. ‘Actions should speak louder than words, and our mind should be moderate before we perform something.’

STRESSED??? READ THIS

Everyone in this world faced this kind of situation lots in their life. stress occurs when one’s desires are not fulfilled properly or ended negatively . I am not a psychiatrist I am just a student who have gone through lots of stress in my life and everyone has too. But I didn’t give up that’s my power . I become more and more confident when I raised my positive outlook in life. Always ask this questions when you’re in stress.

1)what’s the reason behind my stress?

2)Is this stress necessary ?

3)why I’m thinking that this bad luck will last long throughout my life?

4)what are the ways to remove my poor mindset?

Answering this questions itself gives you a lot of clarity. Here are some things that humans commonly do avoid that

1)Comparing your life with others life:

Avoid this kind of thinking. your personality and life is different from others then why comparing your life with others. They may look like happier but they only know how much stages they have gone through in their life. So, don’t have this silly thought that what kind of troubles that they have faced in their life. Human life is of two sides negative and positive .Everything is connected when we face negative side we learn and the result is success (positivity) that’s how life works.

2) Avoid jealousy:

This kind of character will destory you . Don’t get jealous about others instead compliment them. It will make you happier than ever. Instead of being jealous , learn from them.Use that knowledge to improve yourself in your own way. Being Jealous is a waste of time as it will not improve you instead it will degrade you on a lower level.

3)Positive outlook :

whatever happens in your life look in positive outlook. The universal truth is whatever thing you took it will have both advantages and disadvantages .

For example: Morning and Night . Let’s keep morning as happiness and night as sadness . If you like only the morning time and you keeping it for the full day and avoiding the night .For somedays you can survive but living for longer period destroys the world as well as you due to the aggressive heat of the sun . That’s how universe works . In your life too you have to face both in order to balance your life . Instead of getting stressed accept this truth and it will help you to grow .

The truth about Uttar Pradesh’s ‘mass conversion racket’

For  the past few days Indian Media, specially national media has focused itself on the conversion rackets taking place in Uttar Pradesh. It has gain public attention and became kind of a bigger issue than COVID itself. If you see with their prospective it’s not something new and I don’t think it will be last time they will be reporting something like this. It can be also seen as way to gain attention as the election are nearing by. There has always been report on news channels about spreading  hate towards a specific community.

 But what really happened ?

Is everything we saw on the news channel is the truth or there is more to it?

 Continue reading to know the whole truth.

On June 20 the U.P. Police Anti Terrorist Scot ( A.T.S.) arrested two persons, Mohammad Umar and Jahangeer  Kasmi  from Delhi’s Jamia Nagar in a case of alleged mass conversion.

An F.I.R. was filed in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow under various sections of I.P.C.  and were also charged with the  Sates  Anti Conversion Law passed in November of 2020. A statement was released by Umar Gautam’s daughter on 26th June saying,” My father Mr. Mohammad Umar Gautam has been arbitrarily arrested on false charges. He is a proud convert himself, who lives a life of a law abiding citizen of India. He has also not received any illegal funding from any foreign source as alleged by media. These allegations are completely baseless.”

Meanwhile The Office of the Islamic Dawa Center (I.D.C.) at Jamia Nagar’s Jogabai extension remains closed. People living around Umar knew him as a respectable man. But due to fear of counterattack many of them refused to come forward to say anything.

According to the Newslaundry’s Report the people have sad that Umar used to help the people who wanted to convert the religion legally and have refused the claim that the man tried to convert people with force or by bribing the with money.

The F.I.R. names these two with the accusation of forced conversation which included, Missing Person’s case by 247/2021 filed by the parents of Aditya Gupta at Knapur’s Kalyanpur Police Station.  The second known to be victim Manu Yadav, A resident of Gurugram, came in light of A.T.S. through social media. At Gurugram’s Babupur village Manu Yadav’s parents who had converted and changed his name to Abdul Manan, his parents are busy giving media Interviews.

According to his mother she last saw her son in the first week of June. 22 year old Manan id deaf and non-verbal. On February 17 Manan showed his parents a conversion certificate and told them he has accepted Islam as his religion. The certificate has been issued by Umar’s organization I.D.C. and was signed by Kazi Jahangir Kasmi.

According to Manan’s  mother he stopped eating and became very violent on the thought of letting have Islam and his friends convinced him to keep patience and allegedly the parents agreed to his wish.

Manan’s interest in Islam began in 2017 but his parents refused let him being converted. His mother explains that his situation kept hating worse due to not eating and his mental situation was also not getting better so they agreed. The mother also thinks that his son drifted away from Hinduism due to unemployment. According to her in the December of last year Manan had his physical test for the examination he was preparing for but he failed and became more disappointed. The conversion group took advantage of  it and told him that his gods are not helping him enough and if he decides to convert he will be given a government job, a house, land and will get married to a Muslim girl.

After Manan went missing in April, His father, Rajiv Yadav, a cab driver approached the Gurugram Police several times but there was no progress. He claims that he found videos and chats on Manan’s phone which proves that his son was being influenced. He handed over data to U.P.A.T.C. for further investigation. He also blames Manan’s friend Skaheel and two others who befriended him  while he was perusing vocational course in welding at an ITI in Gurugram as being responsible for his conversion. The link between these friends and Umar is not clear.

On 28 June , Manan was arrested by U.P.A.T.S. It was claimed that Manan was behind the conversion of Aditya Gupta. In F.I.R. Manan was not accused with the conversion but with damaging the idols at his home and that he has become iradical with respect to Islam.

 

Aditya converted and changed his name to Abdul Kadir. He was a resident of Kanpur and is 24 years old. Abdul is also deaf and non verbal as Manan. He went missing in March. On 12 April 2021 was reported missing in Kanpur’s Kalyanpur Police Station.

 Later Abdul told his parents through a video call that he is in Kerala and has converted to Islam. In June he returned home  with a conversion certificate issued by the I.D.C.

Abdul’s mother acknowledged that her son has been inclined towards Islam since 2012. According to the mother her son has started skipping meals and has started getting up early and started paying the she came to realise that he was practicing Islam.

 Kadir told Newslaundry that it is difficult for disabled people like him to find a job, hence they switch to another religion.  He also said that he has been poor and disable his whole life and after paying and still not getting anything he turned towards different religions and when some of his friends told him that Allah  will fulfill his wishes and so he decided to convert to Islam.

The another common link between Manan and Abdul other than I.D.C. is an educational institution at Noida. Both of them were enrolled at  Noida Deaf Society. The building has been locked ever since the institution’s involvement came into light. There was some protest also some days ago and therefore two Policemen have been stationed outside the building.

 The founder  of the Society told the media,” We are collaborating with the ATS and providing support.” She also stated that at  NDS they don’t teach religion and its limited to professional programmes only.

To counter allegations of forced conversion Umar Gautham’s family has issued videos of individuals who have came to IDC for documentation.

The initial arrest was made in Deli alleged with the victims from Gurugram and Kanpur who were studets at an institution in Noida.

According to UPATS, what seems to be a pan India racket actually has its rot in Ghaziabad. There has been several incidents taken place and has banned the entry of Muslims in April 2021.

In June 2021,two men who were converts had tried to enter the temple by hiding their identities, Narsinghanan , temple’s priest alleged that the men had came with the purpose to assassinate him. UPATS now claims that they got their lead about Umar Gautam from these two men.

There are concerns about whether the investigation is an attempt for religious divide in an election year. There are still some things unclear and missing in this case and UPATS needs to find as soon as they  can.

What do you think about this whole thing please tell your thoughts in the comments below.

According to the Newslaundry’s Report the people have sad that Umar used to help the people who wanted to convert the religion legally and have refused the claim that the man tried to convert people with force or by bribing the with money.

The F.I.R. names these two with the accusation of forced conversation which included, Missing Person’s case by 247/2021 filed by the parents of Aditya Gupta at Knapur’s Kalyanpur Police Station.  The second known to be victim Manu Yadav, A resident of Gurugram, came in light of A.T.S. through social media. At Gurugram’s Babupur village Manu Yadav’s parents who had converted and changed his name to Abdul Manan, his parents are busy giving media Interviews.

According to his mother she last saw her son in the first week of June. 22 year old Manan id deaf and non-verbal. On February 17 Manan showed his parents a conversion certificate and told them he has accepted Islam as his religion. The certificate has been issued by Umar’s organization I.D.C. and was signed by Kazi Jahangir Kasmi.

According to Manan’s  mother he stopped eating and became very violent on the thought of letting have Islam and his friends convinced him to keep patience and allegedly the parents agreed to his wish.

Manan’s interest in Islam began in 2017 but his parents refused let him being converted. His mother explains that his situation kept hating worse due to not eating and his mental situation was also not getting better so they agreed. The mother also thinks that his son drifted away from Hinduism due to unemployment. According to her in the December of last year Manan had his physical test for the examination he was preparing for but he failed and became more disappointed. The conversion group took advantage of  it and told him that his gods are not helping him enough and if he decides to convert he will be given a government job, a house, land and will get married to a Muslim girl.

After Manan went missing in April, His father, Rajiv Yadav, a cab driver approached the Gurugram Police several times but there was no progress. He claims that he found videos and chats on Manan’s phone which proves that his son was being influenced. He handed over data to U.P.A.T.C. for further investigation. He also blames Manan’s friend Skaheel and two others who befriended him  while he was perusing vocational course in welding at an ITI in Gurugram as being responsible for his conversion. The link between these friends and Umar is not clear.

On 28 June , Manan was arrested by U.P.A.T.S. It was claimed that Manan was behind the conversion of Aditya Gupta. In F.I.R. Manan was not accused with the conversion but with damaging the idols at his home and that he has become iradical with respect to Islam.

 

Aditya converted and changed his name to Abdul Kadir. He was a resident of Kanpur and is 24 years old. Abdul is also deaf and non verbal as Manan. He went missing in March. On 12 April 2021 was reported missing in Kanpur’s Kalyanpur Police Station.

 Later Abdul told his parents through a video call that he is in Kerala and has converted to Islam. In June he returned home  with a conversion certificate issued by the I.D.C.

Abdul’s mother acknowledged that her son has been inclined towards Islam since 2012. According to the mother her son has started skipping meals and has started getting up early and started paying the she came to realise that he was practicing Islam.

 Kadir told Newslaundry that it is difficult for disabled people like him to find a job, hence they switch to another religion.  He also said that he has been poor and disable his whole life and after paying and still not getting anything he turned towards different religions and when some of his friends told him that Allah  will fulfill his wishes and so he decided to convert to Islam.

The another common link between Manan and Abdul other than I.D.C. is an educational institution at Noida. Both of them were enrolled at  Noida Deaf Society. The building has been locked ever since the institution’s involvement came into light. There was some protest also some days ago and therefore two Policemen have been stationed outside the building.

 The founder  of the Society told the media,” We are collaborating with the ATS and providing support.” She also stated that at  NDS they don’t teach religion and its limited to professional programmes only.

To counter allegations of forced conversion Umar Gautham’s family has issued videos of individuals who have came to IDC for documentation.

The initial arrest was made in Deli alleged with the victims from Gurugram and Kanpur who were studets at an institution in Noida.

According to UPATS, what seems to be a pan India racket actually has its rot in Ghaziabad. There has been several incidents taken place and has banned the entry of Muslims in April 2021.

In June 2021,two men who were converts had tried to enter the temple by hiding their identities, Narsinghanan , temple’s priest alleged that the men had came with the purpose to assassinate him. UPATS now claims that they got their lead about Umar Gautam from these two men.

There are concerns about whether the investigation is an attempt for religious divide in an election year. There are still some things unclear and missing in this case and UPATS needs to find as soon as they  can.

Arthur Eddington

Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington (1882 – 1944)

Arthur Eddington was a British astronomer, physicist and mathematician. He was born in Cumbria, UK before moving to Weston-super-Mare as a child. He was not from a wealthy family but did so well at school that he got a scholarship to go to Owen’s College, Manchester. He graduated with a physics degree in 1902. Arthur was then offered a position at Trinity College, Cambridge where he completed his master’s degree. He worked at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, before returning to Cambridge five years later.

He was the first person to propose that stars were powered by the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. The limit to how bright a star can be before it begins to collapse is named after him, the Eddington Luminosity.

Einstein’s Theory of Relativity

He is most famous, for his work on Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. Arthur carried out observations of a solar eclipse to confirm the theory. This work was considered so important that it prevented him beginning military service during the First World War. Arthur was happy about this as he was a pacifist, but he did offer to join an ambulance unit, or work as a harvest labourer on home soil.

Arthur viewed the eclipse from the island of Principe, off the west coast of Africa. He chose that location because there was a good chance of clear skies, and he could view the eclipse in full there. During the darkness of the eclipse, Arthur took photographs of stars close to the Sun. These stars are normally blocked by the light of the Sun during the day. Arthur observed that stars close to the Sun had their light shifted by the Sun’s gravitational field. This confirmed Einstein’s Theory of Relativity.

Cosmology

Eddington was also heavily involved with the development of the first generation of general relativistic cosmological models. He had been investigating the instability of the Einstein universe when he learned of both Lemaître’s 1927 paper postulating an expanding or contracting universe and Hubble’s work on the recession of the spiral nebulae. He felt the cosmological constant must have played the crucial role in the universe’s evolution from an Einsteinian steady state to its current expanding state, and most of his cosmological investigations focused on the constant’s significance and characteristics. In The Mathematical Theory of Relativity, Eddington interpreted the cosmological constant to mean that the universe is “self-gauging”.

Eddington number for cycling

Eddington is credited with devising a measure of a cyclist’s long-distance riding achievements. The Eddington number in the context of cycling is defined as the maximum number E such that the cyclist has cycled E miles on E days.

For example, an Eddington number of 70 miles would imply that the cyclist has cycled at least 70 miles in a day on at least 70 occasions. Achieving a high Eddington number is difficult since moving from, say, 70 to 75 will (probably) require more than five new long distance rides, since any rides shorter than 75 miles will no longer be included in the reckoning. Eddington’s own life-time E-number was 84.

He later wrote this short poem about the discovery:

Oh leave the Wise our measures to collate

One thing at least is certain, LIGHT has WEIGHT,

One thing is certain, and the rest debate—

Light-rays, when near the Sun, DO NOT GO STRAIGHT.
