The teachers are heavily loaded apart from their own personal problems including meeting both ends, combating commuting tension and related tiredness and a much larger class than that they should be handling. Hence, the 'Projects' assignments, conveniently termed 'learn beyond the walls of the class rooms'; such actionsch corrupt a child's potential development and the basic concept of foundation strengthening is totally forgotten. The boundary wall collapses more often than buildings. They are erected with little or no foundation at all.SSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670141031971158555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-79534751383251757782011-09-05T10:40:58.976+05:302011-09-05T10:40:58.976+05:30When you buy betel leaves, they come in different ...When you buy betel leaves, they come in different sizes in the same bundle. The vendor, simply brushes off your statement that "the cost of each is the same so you expect even sized ones" - stating 'that all fingers are not exactly alike'. However, each has its own use. The thumb cannot be used to tickle your ear. Similarly all the students in the class have distinct abilities but not similar. Further, today, where are the Basic concepts and fundamentals being taught? A lot is skipped for paucity of time,large number of students in the class or other reasons..Framing the syllabus is important and we have failed on that score. A child is forced to study all and sundry whether he is interested or not. Interest has to be created while framing the syllabus, preparing lessons appropriately, and imparting in the class.SSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670141031971158555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-78720328163658238542011-09-02T08:03:25.035+05:302011-09-02T08:03:25.035+05:30It is actually, "reading newspapers, sipping ...It is actually, "reading newspapers, sipping tea while watching Television News too"SSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670141031971158555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-35043775441147614642011-08-26T17:43:41.529+05:302011-08-26T17:43:41.529+05:30How is it that 100% of the failed marriages' h...How is it that 100% of the failed marriages' horoscopes when read again in 'minute' detail reveal some 'dosham' or another and umpteen excuses made for the earlier readings/comparisons where as none such attempts have been carried out on status of horoscopes match of successful marriages at a later juncdture?SSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670141031971158555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-74099530989221442012011-08-25T20:19:48.299+05:302011-08-25T20:19:48.299+05:30The comments pertaining to this 18 of 29 visakam, ...The comments pertaining to this 18 of 29 visakam, has been by oversight posted in 17 of 29 Swathi site.

Meaning, observing thousands of individuals and noting their character and events that occur at various times of their lives, and seeing planetary positions at the time of those events, 'calculated from their time of birth', and their correlations, various predictions are made. So astrology itself is a science which has the time of birth as the reference point. <br />Argument 2: There is nothing wrong in noting time of conception and developing a science that would infer from the planetary positions - but astrology is not that. And ofcourse, time of conception is almost impossible to note.<br />Argument 3: The time of conception itself is immaterial as the planetary positions would anyway have been the same retrospectively. Say if Saniswar crosses the person's 3rd house at the age of 4, irrespective of the horoscope base of either the time of conception or the time of birth, it will cross the 3rd house at the age of 4. So what difference does it make???<br />Argument 4: Continuing from argument 1, The houses, and the lagnam are observed to have influence on various aspects of life based on time of birth. If it has to be retrospectively corrected, it will only move the chart and house aspects by 10 months back...so the so called new science of time of conception will just be a cyclical reordering of the houses and aspects. but the influence is governed by present time which is a constant.Raguramanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01034481954542819784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-13710738969032934202011-08-21T21:28:52.962+05:302011-08-21T21:28:52.962+05:30This is the mythological aspect...

Ravan, captured all the 9 planets and made them stand in all favourable aspects - so as to ensure that Indrajit will be immortal and all powerful. But at the very moment indrajit was born, Mandhi a playful kid ran into the delivery room and saw Indrajit, hence, though he had the valour to even win over Indra, had to meet his death at the hands of Rama. What can you foresee? that is the question.Raguramanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01034481954542819784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72871038420730300.post-65936409253231727022011-08-18T21:05:56.622+05:302011-08-18T21:05:56.622+05:30The relative position of planets do not change at ...The relative position of planets do not change at all because of the tremendous distances.
