Pakistan- state of Nation

After receiving aids profusely , Pakistan  started fighting with Taliban. The army movements in and around Pakistan is huge and it is expected to touch 15000 against 4000 Taliban fighters. The terrorists are surely outnumbered but they have successfully jettisoned some of the fact that Mr Musharraf ( as a President followed by Mr Zardari) used to convey. To begin with the very fact that Pakistan held the Pashtuns and other Afghani Tribal insurgents off its borders has been blown off to bits. 
Second and the curious one is the way Pak has submitted the modified version of sharia law in 2 months time. This not only raises alarms but also questions the mannerism things were conducted in and around these regions.
Here comes an observation , Indian region we also call as POK(Pak occupied Kashmir ) saw a similar insurgency. Was India not capable of holding the terrorists back ?The answer is simple and is related to weather in and around the region around POK. 
Rewinding our thoughts back to pak region, the panacea is believed to billions of dollars for each and every attack carried out against Afghani Taliban. The fickle in the heart and minds of paki officials have again made them akin to their desolated enemy. Yusuf Raza Gilani , PM of Pakistan is also believed to presage the act of war in Swat region as a wilting effort. 

so what is going to come off such discussion , discernment ?.No , the conclusion is what is  most engaging. War do brings loss of life and property but in this situation it was also a blessing in disguise for pakis. Now they not only have money to back themselves up , their economic position (where inflation once stood at mind-boggling 26%) has eased off. US has constantly stood beside their ostensible partners , helping them whenever they need it.I consider this as an act of partial atonement (it was CIA who created Taliban and Al- queda in the first place) and also as an experimental battleground where they can test their napalm missiles or Drones for that matter. The loss belongs to AF-PAK and is constantly perpetuating to its neighbors.

multiverse-The very concept

This blog entry was written a while ago while I was watching NGC's documentary (which infact I was trying to gnaw and digest very hard at the beginning) on Multiverse. We are supposed to be living in a UNI-verse i.e a place unique and with unparalleled existence. But the studies by some very renowned physicists of our age has put forth a theory (of course based on experiments and observations ) that there are not only 3 dimensions but 11 dimensions in whole!

I was flummoxed at the very existence of such beliefs. Being a Hindu , I was always driven towards science because of  correlation within  astrological, physical phenomenon with the hindu beliefs and customs. Talk about Nakshatras or astrological prediction of solar and lunar eclipse , there always has ben a distinct familiarity. Most of such facts can be found written in our holy books - Bhagvad Gita , panchang  and the vedas . But nowhere I heard or saw a written transcript stating 11 dimensions or multiverse. 
The documentary canvassed some facts about destinations  such as   Earth like planets or some  planets deserted like Mars. But the 'philosophical me' took the fiber of the story in a much different way. I think the fact was written all over the place - it was  talking about the existence of choices in a life of a human being. The idea is pervasive and perpetuates deeply within each individual. Consider a situation where we have done something wrong then we think f not doing that particular thing or might just consider the fact of traveling in a time machine trying to resurrect that was destroyed or to mend a broken relationship. Multiverse means there will be many earths , each having its own creatures and rules to follow. In some  Iraq and US are best of friends, in some Hiroshima never happened.

Readers might just draw picture of a depressed author but my point is the use of nimbleness in adversities of life. Such facts do remove the nebulousness of mind and help the rationale prevail. Then the nuclear age can be thought as long gone or the quadrupling of oil and land faces the end.
