Indian parents and their way of life
Nowadays the parents and children live in two different cultural/belief systems. Parents live based on carefree slow life as in village/town of 1980s INdia. By then the words-to-mouth/mouth-to-word conversation was very reilable. We children live in 2010 ; the concept is Expert-Service with Service-Level-Agreement. This part creates a bit of irritation in parent-children relation (though not serious issue). Whenever I ask my dad/mom on some thing they give a fuzzy time-line. They dont care about the finishing date or any such stuff. But I am concerned about the SLA. Also I need things fast. Could not wait 1 week to get an info from one guy to carry-on my works further.
The concept emerged because most of the works are not done on expected time and in expected manner. Now the problem is most of the world moved to this expert-service model of society .. and hence there is no reliable persons word-to-word society. But our parents still fidelling with forgery/faulty/unqualified persons for getting their work-done and end up in mess.

Soul touching songs
I have been thinking long long ago about writing a blog entry for soul-touching videos that I enjoyed.
One such song is the 'RETURN TO INNOCENCE' by ENIGMA.
What a song it is !!!!! simply it is a 'magical song'. Whenever I watch the song in youtube, it alters my mood. Just before this blog entry I listened to this song and made up my mind to write this immediately. I feel it like a sin as I dint wrote about it these many days.
Also, another ENIGMA's song 'AGE OF LONELINESS' is too good as well. The background high pitched humming lady voice seems to be coming from my soul within. So divine feeling it creates to any one hearing the song. The song has not much lyrics.. but it is the lady voice that gives a mystical feeling to the listener. The video is also too good to watch.
Then, there is one of Illayaraja's 'DUBAI CONCERT SURPRISE PACKAGE' (search in youtube). This is my regional favorite. When I was in Glasgow for an year, I used to hear this song very often. This song reminds me about my home town. The lyrics is very apt, that any tamil guy living abroad can understand much deeper meaning in it. Even today I heard this song in youtube and felt good. Illayaraja is very great person. The way he express the meaning of lyrics is too heart-warming. Many persons given their feeling on hearing this song in 'comments' to is youtube video. It is one such must-watch video in my list.
Then another song from AKON is 'MR LONELY'. This song.. I hear much often when in Glasgow. I felt lonely.. very lonely there.. I got money.. good job.. nice people around.. but still there is a lonely feeling occupying my mind when I was abroad... Now I am in Chennai (Tamilnadu) and enjoying every moment. I could see every people speaking in Tamil. It is one such wonderful feeling for anyone who lived for quite long away from Tamilnadu.
hmm.. then .. 'ULLATHIL NALLA ULLAM' song in 'KARNAN' movie (old tamil movie). This song I liked from my childhood. This song gives a good-feeling & courage ... that, even though any good person might suffer in life.. finally he ends up being GREAT... all one need is good-thinking/good-wish/good-activity in spite of surrounding problems... which will be never forget over time..
there are still a quite big list of soul-touching songs.. but these being very prominent in my mind.. Hope many people have this in yours list..

Ponniyin Selvan
The book goes like seeing from within the mind of the hero 'Vandhiyathevan' . Kalki writes what is happening in the mind/consciousness of the hero into this book. So whenever you read the book, you feel like you are inside Vandhiyathevan's brain and seeing the story. So I feel it is more than 3D movie.
Simply to put forward, the book takes you back in time and make you yearn for that kind of life. Because that life is slow and full of colors, celebrations and people work for themselves and their people. Even though there is a war, the people die for their people (which is a small circle and not a big country as of today, where Indians die in Europe fighting for British and British die in Afghanistan fighting Talibans .. Bull Shit !!! ). Now a days I am working for foreign country for their happiness. I get money with which I cannot stay near my family and enjoy the way I wanted. Holy Shit !!! That age is really beautiful and interesting than today....

Chest pain Acidity Palpitation Dizziness Anxiety Insomnia Bloating
I visited the emergency section (in Glasgow royal infirmiry) and told about my chest pain. The doctors had ECG, x-ray, blood test and finally concluded it to be my acidity and the condition is 'heart burn'. I heard the word 'heart-burn' for first time in my life (was 24 old by then). The doctor recommended to take antacids over the counter.Even antacid is new for me. Infact medicine itself is very new to me as I visit doctor only for cold or fever or someskin allergies till my 24 years.
I had more antacids. One pack of gaviscon after every meal. Approx for 10 days and one day I started feeling dizzy. That drove me crazy. I heard my heart. This kind of episodes happened now and then and I could not figure out anything. It was like a horror movie. But I cant explain these things to others. Because it is something verynew for me and also rare thing for a 24 year old guy. My googling went high, that I read upto genetics to cancer research to stem cells to almost every individual part in the body.
One fine weekend, I felt my heart beat for more than 5 mins and was worried a lot. All of a sudden a dizzy spell. Rushed my roomies to take me to emergency section. But before going to emergency section, all the symptoms stopped.Though I had constant burping, irritation in throat and some acidity related symptoms. I explained about my dizziness and heart beats and again they took ECG and said nothing wrong. I questioned myself 'Am I a fool??' because,I could feel that something is going very wrong in my body. But the doctor says it is nothing.. how could it be possible. Then i started researching more on internet about my conditions (and I frightened myself reading dangerous articles and dreadful conditions that could happen to humanity).
Now, something striked my mind. For the past 2 years I have bloating problem (which I have not given much importance at all, as it dint gave any further problem except to shit often). I thought my bloating could have deep root in my present problems. I imagined I might have some kind of stomach or intestinal cancer and that is why my body started behaving erratically. This added more fear in me. But doctors say iam alright. :(
Then, Finally I made it again to General Practioner. Had a blood test that revealed H.Pylori in my stomach, which proved to cause high acidic stomach and which leads to bloating and so on. So now I had a sigh of relief. I thought and expected that eradicating the H.Pyroli from stomach will end the problem. But it dint. One good thing is my mental confidence increased as doctors found something wrong with me and there is some treatment. I found my stomach does not bloat any further. But still my acidity issues continued. Doctor said that you need to wait for a week or two to get your stomach back to normal.
Slowly, my conditions rolled back to problematic state. Bloating started again.Breathing difficulties and rib cage pains worsened. I started to hear sounds louder than I heard them previously. I cant bear thrilling or devilish music.(I used to listen my iPod at high volume. i all of a sudden thougth that my problem might be because of my high volume, and believe me, i stopped hearing in iPod for some days). Also the winter worsened in 2009 in UK. I felt very bad.. very very bad.I decided atleast I should go back to India and meet my parents and say all these happenings. I traveled to Indiaon Jan 10th 2010. (Aug 09 to Dec 09.. 5 months of mental and physical trauma).
I had Echo, ECG for my heart and everything came out negative (meaning it is in good condition). My doctor in India said it is mere anxiety. My actual problem was acidity due to some food and the chest pain due to acidity. But every other things like heart palpitations, dizziness are all due to my anxiety. Now I am hearing something new again 'Anxiety' ????Anxiety - hmm something new. now what is this. this is purely psychological the doctor said. Now my question is 'am i psycho'. Hmm... I could not bear all these nonsense.. I am definitely alright, i could remember things and work what I need to. So i am definitely not mad.
Then heard about the anxiety and adrenalin relations and then adrenalin and sleep-related issues. Also I was not able to sleep well now. I thought it might be due to new place (since i traveled from UK to India). But my nights became sleepless and chest pain and difficult breathing and acidity and stomach bloating. Oops .. God !!! please save me... that was my mind's feeling. I never believe in god. So how come my utter those words. This is where humans seek for god. Yes, if someone has given me the answer for my problem, then i wont go for God. Now i understood how god came into picture of human's life. I thought whether all these things happenings are something related to attaining god??!!! no idea. nothing clear.
Now I also felt the importance of mind. I understood practically the link between mind and body, as I read something related to anxiety. But medical world has no answers to mind. Medicine can only say about mind related problems but cannot cure any. Then without much help I carried acid reducing tables and some sleeping pills. Came back to work in Chennai, India. It is typical in Chennai for a new person to get vomit and diarrhea in the first week. I did too.Only diarrhea. I went to nearby doctor and she prescribed some antibiotics and importantly PROBIOTICS. I read the contents of the table and to my surprise found that PROBIOTICS table is nothing but bunch of useful bacteria in stomach. After taking the PROBIOTIC pills my bloating went away completely. I felt better. Then I continued to concentrate more on the food habits. My acidity problems seemd to decreased a lot. Now I eat whatever I like. Thankgod. Then continuing my research on my heart-palpitations and sleepless-nights (though my sleep is at least 6 hours). I found that MAGNESIUM deficiency could cause noise-sensitiveness and palpitations. Especially neuron and brain related activities. I now need to try MAGNESIUM rich diet. I will research and will say the output.
From my horrible experience, I conclude(1) Until any person get into solution-less problems, he/she will not seek God truly.(2) Mind can do much harm than anyone can think. But the problem is I cannot explain how horrible I feel hearing loud noise and frightening incidents.(3) Also mind reacts very superbly. I read more medical articles and analyzed in very short period of time just because, my mind wants to find a cure. It never stops at anything till finding a convincing solution.(4) PROBIOTICS are very important. A healthy person is none but who has healthy PROBIOTIC bacteria in his stomach. These bacteria digest and help our digestive system. yet to conculde on solutions to my palpitation/noise-sensitivity/insomnia(sleepless-nights). Probably Magnesium rich diet might help. Let me check.
Also I wish everyone having similar symptoms , not to worry to much. Worrying will not solve the problem, rather it aggravates the problems due to anxiety. Don't read and blindly believe on internet articles. Take only the positive solutions and thoughts from internet. If you take negative and bad things from internet, then you are f**ked.Stop alcohol and smoking. They do more harm than any.Give lots of importance to food habits than your electronic-gadgets and vehicles and home-loans. Don't panic, test yourself and verify with what other say about your condition. Take the one who says very close to your experience. Try to define your conditions exactly and clearly, to figure-out your problem correctly.Finally Blog your experience so that someone might get help from your horrible life.
:) cheers
