I am very thankful to god that e sent the angel called Manika
A person has full right to have dreams and its god’s responsibility to fulfill that
I am Gurpreet Kaur. My father is a common labour and my mother is no more. I have got four siblings who are younger than me. I did my schooling from govt. school o my village.
I was topper at my school. It was my duty to write thought of the day and top news of the day daily.
One day it was silent, I was writing thought of the day at the board at my school. Suddenly what happened, silent got changed into music of happiness. I saw a headline which will change my life I didn’t know. It was written that a person want to give best education to 2oo students who belongs to poor families, who are brilliant but cannot able to have. A hope of light was arises at my mind. I decided to give my name in these students. I took the permission from the headmistress and went to the school in which the test will be taken place. It was full of struggle for me to do all the formalities because no one with me. I was alone did not have knowledge about anything but I was successful. I passed the exam taken by them. I took admission in the school of my dreams. I always had a dream to study in that school. I never thought that I will be an engineer but now I am.
The person was S. Jatinder Singh Uppal from Australia. Madam Manika is a daughter of S. jatindre Singh Uppal. I did my schooling up to 12 from Jatinder Singh Uppal and for my higher education Manika adopted me i.e. she sponsored me for my further studies. I never thought in my life that I will study in India’s top university. I didn’t know that god has sent an angel to fulfill the dreams of the students like me. Now I believe nothing is impossible.
A person has full right to have dreams and its god’s responsibility to fulfill that.
I am very thankful to god that e sent the angel called Manika .
May god bless Manika.

Swamy announces panel against corruption
CHENNAI: Janata Party President Subramanian Swamy on Friday announced forming of anAction Committee Against Corruption in India (ACACI) with special focus on illegal money flow in and out of the country.
The ACACI consists of members including former Haryana DGP and former CBI joint director BR Lall, academician MD Nalapat and former IAS officer V Sundaram among others.
"The ACACI will leverage existing national and international laws and move internal and global institutions to discover and recover illegal funds deposited in secret banking channels in about 77 countries," he told reporters here after a meeting of the committee.
"Our areas of focus would include nationalisation of illegal accounts in foreign banks and plugging tax evasion. ACACI has been set up to fight corruption in the space left vacant by two major movements against corruption, led by Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev," Swamy said.
While Hazare's efforts were focused at revamping present laws and making them free of loopholes, Ramdev concentrated on mass mobilisation, Swamy noted.
"The ACACI will focus on specific action against macro corrupt acts, especially in the criminal misconduct of high level public officials and illegal money flow in and out of the country," he said.
Asserting that he had no differences with Hazare or Baba Ramdev, Swamy said he would participate in the yoga guru's proposed padayatra. "We will work in harmony," he added. --Abhishek Joshi

Voice of Sanity
Continuing Relevance Of Swami Vivekananda
~Swami Sunirmalananda
DAN Brown’s words in The Lost Symbol are unforgettable. “Since the beginning of Time, the ignorant had always screamed the loudest, herding the unsuspecting masses and forcing them to do their bidding. They defended their worldly desires by citing scriptures they did not understand’ (p. 327).
By standing in any public square, one gets to know how sheep are herded: frenzied, high-pitched shouts as well as gesticulation act like music to their ears. But this is only a metaphor. The objective of that shouting, since time immemorial, has been to threaten the almost sheepish slaves. But without slavery, they can’t survive. Previously, they would do little or no work because the salary was low. These days, they are taxpayers, holding stable jobs. Therefore, they can idle away their time with no questions asked. And life goes on. Since time immemorial, the ‘unsuspecting masses’ have been herded in this way. We the people of the world have paid the price by following the ignorant. Yet we are stubborn; we never listen to the voice of the wise. The wise do not yell and howl to make their point. Their voice is gentle; they speak the language of love. Their message is addressed to the heart. We must be attentive. Otherwise, we will have to pay the price.During the last 100 years, we the people of the world have often behaved in an abnormal manner. We listened to a few world ‘leaders’, one a psychological case, another a deeply frustrated soul, the third a megalomaniac, the fourth a tyrant. They howled and we listened. So we turned violent ~ we killed our own people. We tormented millions; we left millions on the streets to fester and die, helpless and weeping. All this happened because we did not listen to the sane voice. That voice echoed not in some remote, hidden place in a forest, but in the open. It warned us gently. Thereby hangs a sad tale. In his veryfirst address to the world from Chicago, Swami Vivekananda surprisingly remembered the Jews. That talk has had an abiding importance. “I am proud to tell you that we have gathered in our bosom the purest remnant of the Israelites, who came to southern India and took refuge with us in the very year in which their holy temple was shattered to pieces by Roman tyranny’ (Complete Works, 1:3).
It was a very significant statement, and historians are realizing its importance now. Strange as it might seem, it might have appeared to some that Vivekananda was proudly recalling an ancient Indian achievement. He was not the kind of person to brag. To him, this world was a lump of clay. And he had said it on purpose.
Vivekananda said that he had heard the word ‘toleration’ being used on a number of occasions ~ the pride of the cat in tolerating the rat in its trap. To tolerate somebody is not a big deal; on the contrary, it has a negative connotation. It means suppressing one’s hatred for the neighbour. So Vivekananda declared: ‘We believe not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as true.’A more important concept is “acceptance”.Accepting, however, does not mean appeasement for political gains. He reminded the world that day that India had accepted the Jews and “gathered them in our bosom”. The Swamiji wanted the military powers to learn the lesson in order to avoid an imminent catastrophe.
The Swamiji is credited with Bharat-parikrama. He had also undertaken the visva-parikrama. A prophet needs only a few minutes to understand things while we need years. Vivekananda had understood the nature of the world. And his warnng was unambiguous. “Sectarianism, bigotry, and its horrible descendant, fanaticism, have long possessed this beautiful earth. They have filled the earth with violence, drenched it often and often with human blood, destroyed civilization and sent whole nations to despair. Had it not been for these horrible demons, human society would be far more advanced than it is now’ (1:3).
It was a wake-up call delivered in course ofhis first address to the world. The venue was a religious parliament. Perhaps some bookworm might have remarked: ‘Ah, he could have spoken on meditation, realization, Brahminism! Why about violence?’ But the prophet had grasped the seriousness of the situation. His was the voice of God ~ the representative of true religion. Hence the urgency.The rest is history. We couldn’t avoid the Second World War. On the one hand was Swami Vivekananda; while on the other stood several ‘leaders’ whom we have indicated. The masses preferred the latter and their strident cries. As a result,discrimination, hatred and wickedness had intensified in the hearts of the ‘gentle, tolerant’ races, and the Jews were hounded up and killed. In historical texts, this has been referred to as the “holocaust”. Thousands cried in the gas chambers. A line in the Encyclopedia underscores the urgency of Vivekananda’s address. “The 40,000,000-50,000,000 deaths during World War II make it the bloodiest conflict as well as the largest war in history.” Decades ago,the voice of sanity had warned: “The whole of Western civilization will crumble to pieces in the next fifty years if there is no spiritual foundation”. (3:159). And it did crumble. He had despaired the same day that but for such insanity, ‘human society would be far more advanced than it is now.’ And yet,potential scientists and inventors were led to the gas chambers.This connection between Swami Vivekananda and the Second World War might appear to be incidental. It bears recall that he had warned about the First World War and in writing. He had visited Vienna just for three days and had grasped the terrible situation. He wrote: “There is the possibility of a dreadful war and that catastrophe may take place very early”. This might lead one to wonder why he was thinking in terms of war while addressing a seemingly tolerant Europe? Francis Joseph II, the Austrian emperor, died in 1916. So explosive was the situation in Germany at that point in time that he declared that the war was imminent. “In the present times a huge wave of nationalism is sweeping over Europe, where people speaking the same tongue, professing the same religion, and belonging to the same race want to unitetogether. Wherever such union is being effectively accomplished, there is great power being manifested; and where this is impossible, death is inevitable.”
And he added: “After the death of the present Austrian Emperor, Germany will surely try to absorb the German-speaking portion of the Austrian Empire. Russia and others are sure to oppose her; so there is the possibility of a dreadful war’ (7:389). Swamiji had also written at length about Serbia, Turkey, Bulgaria. Leo Tolstoy read him. But World War I became inevitable.
The Twin Messages Of Education And Harmony
There is another major example of Swami Vivekananda’s philosophy. He wrote to the King of Mysore in 1894: “Within fifty years the educated of the world will come to believe in the eternity of both soul and creation, and in God as our highest and perfect nature, as taught in our holy Vedas.’ Sylvia Cranston and Carry Williams wrote inReincarnation (1999): “In the 1940s a British fact-finding organisation called Mass Observation conducted a study in popular attitudes to religion, ethics, progress and politics in a London borough. Perhaps the least expected, and in some ways the most significant fact, which came to light was the extent of belief in reincarnation [which is the eternality of the soul]’ (p. 11).
Despite such developments, the ignorant masses still listen to the ‘loud voices’because they are so conditioned. An instance of such conditioning is glaring on the streets. Some of our drivers keep honking until the red traffic signal turns green. They honk while driving along deserted streets even at 2 in the morning. Why? They are conditioned by reading the police notice ~ ‘please sound horn’ constantly. The nation is becoming crazy day by day. Education can solve the problem. Similarly, the world is conditioned to think in terms of vanity and pride, of self-hatred and depression, of megalomania and hatred for others. The world has been witness to the activities of Pol Pot, the Hutu-Tutsi genocide, the conflicts in Yugoslavia, Uganda, and Russia. The list is long. Not all all these aberrations were inevitable. One need not necessarily kill one’s brother to sit on a chair, and then to be hanged in due course of time.
Can’t we change? What should we do if we wish to change? The simple answer can be that the world has to listen to the true leader. Jesus declared that he was the messiah; but the world followed Caesar and Herod initially not knowing who Jesus was. Swami Vivekananda also declared at the parliament of religions: “The star rose in the East; it travelled steadily towards the West, sometimes dimmed and sometimes effulgent, till it made a circuit of the world; and now it is again rising on the very horizon of the East…a thousand fold more effulgent than it was before’ (1:20). ‘I have a message for the world,’ (3:213) he declared later. Different races should look at this star for guidance to attain peace and bliss.
Swamiji had a simple message for the world ~ the message of ‘harmony’. He had a one-word message for his own country ~ education. Thus, while his bharat parikrama brought the message of ‘education’ for us, his vishva parikarma brought the message of ‘harmony’ to the world.
The two may apparently seem to be different. Yet harmony and education lead to the same goal. Unfortunately, harmony is often misinterpreted as merely religiousharmony; likewise, there is a misconception that education signifies seculareducation, however important. Not quite. By education, the Swamiji meant all-round development, which makes us stand on our own feet. This, again, does not mean securing a good job ~ that would be temporary. One’s “feet” denotes oneself, the need to attain one’s inner potential, indeed to free ourselves from slavery.
Similarly, when Vivekananda referred to harmony, he meant harmony of civilisation. He said: “In modern Europe, Christianity and civilisation are two different things.” Civilisation is now ready to overthrow dogmatic religions. He had wanted to create aworld civilisation with the flag of harmony. “A flag is needed to lead the herd. It is not dipping one’s hands in the neighbour’s blood or becoming rich by robbing one’s neighbours, but to march in the vanguard of civilisation with the flag of harmony.”
Swamiji travelled all over India and was appalled at the callousness, ignorance, stupidity, differences, mutual hatred, meanness, and superstitions ~ all in the name religion. There were reformers all right, but he wanted a drastic overhaul. And this involved diagnosis of the ailment and its subsequent treatment. Vivekananda realised that ignorance was the root cause, and hence laid emphasis on education. But how does the system go about the task of education? Education must aim at all-round development, with equal opportunities for all. It must provide full freedom for individual growth. Both the boy in a village and the rich man’s son in the city must get the same opportunity to acquire knowledge. Assimilation and development will of course depend on individual potential. In order to surmount the hurdle of rich and poor, big and small, Swamiji suggested the concept of “acceptance” as the remedy.We must accept all as our own, or see “Shiva in jiva”. Can education help? Education removes superstitions and ignorance. An instance of education is the modern awakening in the West. Education is spreading the world over and people are asking questions. At the moment, religion is in turmoil in the West. Education is, therefore, vital; true education brings maturity and enlightenment. This leads to removal of the differences and helps bring about social harmony.In his message to the West, Vivekananda stressed the importance of harmony. Hating others would neither lead to peace nor tolerance. For effective harmony, the world needs universality and acceptance. In order to accept others or people from other religions, the people must know what others do. This means education. Harmony and education are the two remedies which Swami Vivekananda gave to the distressed world.
His words possess an immortal value. “Everything must be sacrificed, if necessary, for that one sentiment, universality. Whether I live or die, whether I go back to India or not, remember this specially, that universality ~ perfect acceptance, not tolerance only ~ we preach and perform. Existence without knowledge and love cannot be; knowledge without love and love without knowledge cannot be. We want harmony, not one-sided development’ (2:143). Vivekananda was rational, open, and truthful in his approach and sincerely wanted everyone’s well-being. Reading his life one knows how much he had to struggle and endure, only to advance certain noble ideas.
Now is the time to make a beginning, as the world gears up to celebrate Swami Vivekananda’s 150th birth anniversary in 2012. Just as George V was crowned in New Delhi in 1911, so too must Vivekananda be crowned in the hearts of all. Those false ‘loud-speakers’ of false ‘emperors’ must be discarded. The world can unite under the flag of Vivekananda.The song that Rabindranath Tagore had composed in 1911 in praise of the Supreme, the Divine, explains what Vivekananda had sought to achieve. Aha-raho tabo aahvano prachaarito, shuni tabo udaaro bani; hindu bauddha shikho jaino parasiko musalmano cristaani. Purabo paschimo ashe, tabo singhaasano pashe, premo haro hoye gatha…Jana gana aikyo bidhaayako jaya he bharata bhagya bidhaata. (Your rousing call of welcome is spreading everywhere day and night; we the people of the world listen to your universal message. The Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, Jains, Parsees, Muslims and Christians, listen to you. The East and the West come to you with the garland of love. Oh! Glory unto you, who bring in the unity amongst races and are the benefactor ofIndia.’)(*)

PUCL strongly condemned high handed police searching
Kavita Srivastava is the National Secretary of PUCL
1. People’s Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) (National) strongly condemns the high handed police action in raiding and searching the house of Kavita Srivastava, a respected social activist who is the National Secretary of PUCL and President of the Rajasthan State unit of the PUCL on the morning of 3rd October, 2011.
Dr. V. Suresh, Advocate
National Secretary, People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL)
Hussaina Manzil, III Floor, 255 (Old No. 123), Angappa Naicken St., Chennai 600 001
Ph.: +91-25352459 / 42621386-87 / Mobile: +91-94442-31497
2. The police purportedly raided her house to search for a `naxalite’ whose identity is not clear. The search was led by the Deputy Superintendent of Police, Rajendra Singh Shekawat. It was apparently done on the request of Chhattisgarh Police which was led by one Memon in plain clothes. The raid was calculated to intimidate and create fear as a truck load of Special Task Force Police were stationed outside her house. Police were positioned out side the PUCL office as well. Kavita was not present in the house during the raid. Despite the fact that the family members of Kavita fully co-operated with the search party, Kavita’s 80 year old father who is on a pace maker was shoved around. Her sister and a guest who had just left the house were detained outside the house for more than an hour. The family’s domestic helpers were also not spared and were harassed and intimidated. The search party obviously did not find any fugitive from law taking refuge in her house.
3. Kavita and her family are old residents of Jaipur and are well known and respected . As an office bearer of PUCL she has been continuously interacting with the local police as well as the State authorities on several issues concerning the poor and the oppressed in Rajasthan. Thus her bonafides are well established and a search of this nature is completely un- warranted and uncalled for. It is most disconcerting how a search warrant against her could have been so casually issued
when the Supreme Court has cautioned against it and observed that “issuance of a search warrant is a serious matter and it would not be advisable not to dispose of an application for search warrant in a mechanical way by a laconic order. Issue of search warrant being in the discretion of the Magistrate it would be reasonable to expect of the Magistrate to give reasons which swayed his discretion in favour of granting the request. A clear application of mind by the learned Magistrate must be discernible in the order granting the search warrant.”
4. It is well known that Kavita Srivastava, in her capacity as the National Secretary of the PUCL has been active not only in the campaign for release of Dr. Binayak Sen but has also been in the fore front of raising issues of rights violation with impunity by the State of Chhattisgarh and its police force. In the recent past she has been spear- heading the campaign against the arbitrary BPL criteria set by the Planning Commission and the attempts of the Central Government to exclude vast sections of the poor from receiving any of the PDS and other services. She had also taken up the issue of recent attacks on the minority community in Rajasthan.
5. It is thus evident that the early morning raid in her house is nothing but an act of harassment and an attempt at intimidating not just Kavita Srivastava as a person but PUCL as an organization and all other human rights and social activists who dare to raised issues of rights violations. The PUCL states that the action of police authorities is in violation of article 12 of the United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Defenders which mandates that States shall protect human rights defenders from pressure and arbitrary action as a consequence of their legitimate actions to defend and protect human rights.
6. The PUCL demands that the States of Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan and their respective Police Officials refrain forthwith from pursuing such intimidating tactics in future against Kavita Srivastava and other human rights activists and to carry out their obligations under the United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Defenders .

PM Singh's Government sending Démarches to the U.S.
SIKHS TO HOLD "JUSTICE RALLY" DURING PM SINGH'S ADDRESS TO UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) announced that a "Justice Rally" will be held during PM Manmohan Singh's address to the UN General Assembly on September 24th from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon. Sikhs are protesting against PM's Singh's Government's policy of impunity towards Congress (I) leaders who organized and participated in the killing of Sikhs during November 1984.In November 1984, thousands of Sikhs were massacred, their properties looted and burnt, all across India, with the active connivance of law enforcement and on behest of leaders of Congress Party Leaders. Kamal Nath, Amitabh Bachchan, Arun Nehru, Vasant Sathe, Jagdish Tytler and Sajjan Kumar, were seen instigating and leading the killer mobs that attacked Sikhs in November 1984. Twenty Seven (27) years after the massacre, PM Singh has failed to prosecute those responsible and instead have rewarded the killers of Sikhs with seats in the parliament and positions in the Cabinet.
According to attorney Gurpatwant S. Pannun legal advisor to SFJ, PM Singh is not only protecting Kamal Nath in India but is also actively working to get him immunity from prosecution before U.S. Federal Court where he is being tried for his role in November 1984 Sikh Genocide. PM Singh's Government has been sending Démarches to the U.S. Department of State seeking immunity from prosecution for Kamal Nath added attorney Pannun. While Indian Governments claims of democracy, human rights, justice and equality grow louder, bolder and loftier; its actions of shielding the human rights abusers defy the same.
SFJ along with victims of November 1984 have filed a class action law suit against Indian National Congress (Congress I) and Kamal Nath (SFJ v. INC. & Nath SDNY (10 CV 2940)) under Alien Tort Claims Act (ATCA) for their role in the killing of Sikhs in November 1984. US Court issued summons against Kamal Nath on April 06, 2010 while summons against Congress Party were issued in March 2011.

Human Rights Report on Monday
On 7-9 October 1991 at first International Workshop on National Institutions for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights held in Paris when the United Nations Human Rights Commission as Resolution 1992/54 of 1992 and Resolution 48/134 of 1993 adopted the Paris Principle. It was a historic moment and a new definition of civilization was reintroduced in the human conscience. Following the path of Paris Principle, The Protection of Human Rights Act was drafted at 1993 by which Nation Human Rights Commission, West Bengal Human Rights Commission and as well as various other Human Rights Institutions were established in India where the duties and functions of the commissions are enumerated.
To monitor the performances of the HRIs of the countries, a new mechanism was developed at the UN. (ICC). In South Asia, ANNI(Asian NGOs Network on National Human Rights Institutions) was formed. To follow this process, AiNNI (All India Network of NGOs & Individuals working with National and State Human Rights Institutions) was also formed, wherein MASUM is an active member.
This is the demand of the hour that the West Bengal Human Rights Commission, West Bengal Women Commission, West Bengal Minority Commission and other Human Rights Institutions of this state work more actively and significantly in the field of protection of human rights. But it seems that they often failed to show such responsibilities.
We believe the Fourth Estate, the Press and Media, has strong role in forming public opinion in a positive way and they are morally bound to advocate and highlight the social causes.
A special report on Human Rights situation to be release at a press meet on 18th April, 2011 Monday at Kolkata Press Club at 3 - 4 pm. This Press meet has been announced for the release of the background paper and more information, data and evidence of non-fulfilling the duties of the West Bengal Human Rights Commission and other Human Rights Institutions in India and in particular, in West Bengal.
Honourable Justice Malay Sengupta, ex Judge of Kolkata High Court, Ex Acting Chief Justice of Sikkim High Court and present Chairman of OBC Commission of West Bengal will preside over the session. Veteran writer and social activist, Ms. Mahasweta Devi will be present there as Chief Guest. Many other academics, social activists, organisations will share their experiences.

A silent candle light vigil to denounce nuclearisation
Dear Friends and colleagues,
Sub : Invitation - A silent candle light vigil to denounce nuclearisation and mourn the dead in Japan as a result of Tsunami and Earthquake on Monday, 14th March 6.30 PM in front of Gandhi Museum , Madurai
There is nothing we can do except mourn the dead when tragedies of nature strike us. In solidarity with grieving families in Japan we shall come together to mourn all those who have left this planet as a result of that Tsunami, Earthquake and the volcano.
There is something that all of us can do when plans are made to destroy planet earth and human lives. Nuclearisation is one such conspiracy by governments and policy-makers. With a nuclear leak, Japan is battling to avoid a nuclear disaster. A huge blast has caused damage to nuclear power plants there. Several workers were reported to have been injured and exposed to radiation. The toll had risen to at least 1,700 deaths. As many as 10,000 people were missing in the town of Minamisanriku in Miyagi prefecture. There were also reports that the hourly radiation levels at the damaged Japanese nuclear plant are increasing the risk of developing cancer for anyone exposed to the leak. Japanese TV has warned people living near Fukushima nuclear power station to stay indoors. Residents were being told to turn off air-conditioners and not to drink tap water. People going outside were also been told to avoid exposing their skin and to cover their faces with masks and wet towels.
The reactor’s cooling system has failed. Radiation inside the plant soared to 1,000 times its normal level, officials said, triggering evacuation orders for residents. Workers were battling to cool and stabilise the cores of three reactors. It was unclear to what extent the reactors’ external structures had been damaged. Officials and scientists were offering conflicting verdicts on the severity to public health. Initially, more than 3,000 people living within two miles of the plant were evacuated, with those within a seven-mile radius told to stay indoors. But with a third of the town underwater after a nearby dam burst and radiation levels continuing to rise, officials warned of a leak and tripled the safety cordon to six miles. The government has ordered the evacuation of 45,000 people. The Japanese do not have the situation under control.
No state could think of the situation under control with nuclear installations and weapons. By its very nature nuclearisation is dangerous.
Come and join us at 6.30 PM on 14th March at the entrance to the Madurai Gandhi Museum with candles. Inform your friends. We shall add our voices against nuclearisation of India and the globe. Mr. Henri Tiphagne, Executive Director of People’s Watch will preside over the event.
This call is presently being jointly issued by the Tamilnadu Theological Seminary, Lady Doak College, SIRD, SOCO Trust, EKTA, PEAL, Womens’ Consumer Protection Association, Elders Forum for Social Awareness and Action, People’s Watch, IHRE, Sudhanthra, Citizens for Human Rights Movement. This is an inclusive call and all others who are willing to join are kindly requested to consider themselves as part of this call and this I not to exclude anyone from the same. All sections of society from Madurai irrespective of our different professions are invited to participate in large numbers and make it a grand success.
Citizens’ Initiative to denounce nuclearisation and mourn the dead in Japan as a result of Tsunami and Earthquake,

Have a Heart: Release Prisoners of Conscience
The Committee for the Release of Binayak Sen, Mumbai unequivocally condemns the brutal and undemocratic police action against studentsand human rights activists holding a peaceful demonstration at Churchgate, and sitting in a collective at The Oval Maidan,Churchgate. The demonstration was against the manifestly unjust decision of the Chhattisgarh High Court prolonging the incarceration of Dr. Binayak Sen, an internationally reknowned physician facing the persecution of the State, because he spoke up for the oppressed and Adivasis.
Daniel Mazgaonkar, a septuagenarian Gandhian activist, along with others- mostly college professors and students, were jostled and dragged away to Azad Maidan police station.
Kamayani Bali Mahabal, a lawyer and human rights activist, was brutally assaulted by the police and dragged to Colaba Police Station,along with student bystanders who protested against such high-handedness. Her crime- standing at Kala Ghoda silently with a poster proclaiming peace and justice!
If, in a "democracy", the law and its guardians act with such impunity in throttling every voice of public dissent, then very "democracy" and civil liberties and human rights are in grave peril.
- Committee For Release of Binayak Sen, Mumbai
Adv Kamayani Bali Mahabal
Have a Heart: Release Prisoners of Conscience
| First he was denied the right as a doctor to treat his patients. Now Dr. Binayak Sen is denied the right to his own treatment. He needs an urgent Heart Checkup and possible bypass surgery urgently We DEMAND the Chhattisgarh Government IMMEDIATELY allow Dr. Sen to seek the best medical care for his heart condition wherever he Chooses!. This is his FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT not charity of his captors! Design: Hiran Venugopal

A Nation Builder Who was young even at the age of 84
 Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh, Dear Gursikh Veerji & Bhenji In 1908, the passion to uplift the Sikh Panth led to the creation of Punjab & Sindh Bank. (It was a part of the Gurdwara Sudhar movement.) With his far-sighted visionary friends like Bhai Vir Singh, Sunder Singh and Tarlochan Singh they created this bank. To honour such great people and to change lives of several in the panth, Sukrit Trust has embarked upon a unique mission "KIRAT CARNIVAL" | VISION MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE

Electromagnetic Frequency Mind Control Weapons
 |
| Documents not seen by the public until now, released a few months ago. MK-ULTRA trials and experiments that went on in the 1960's in Montreal Canada by physician E.T. Barker. He still practices in Midland, Ontario. His website is http://www.empathicparenting.org Bring this criminal into the spotlight. (Watch Video) |
Friends,
In this article Stephen Lendman discusses the nature of Electro-magnetic weapons [aka mind control weapons] in this article. Steve graduated from Harvard Business School in the nineteen fifties and, now retired, writes on various issues of public interest.
EM weapons are silent but lethal weapons. Many mind-control experiements were conducted by the US Gov, especially the CIA, known variously as MK-ultra, MK-Naomi, etc. The researches on deep mind control methods actually were started at Tavistock Institute in the 1930s. Some of their theories are also taught at Business Schools.
EM weapons kill without leaving any evidence. Entire population or just a single human/animal can be targeted.
Kind regards
Arun Shrivastava
Electromagnetic Frequency Mind Control Weapons
Directed energy weapons include lasers, high power microwave, and millimeter wave ones among others. A relevant December 2007 Department of Defense (DOD) report called them a "transformational game changer in military operations, able to augment and improve operational capabilities in many areas," for both lethal and non-lethal purposes.
Access the full text through the following link:
Among other applications, EMF weapons/devices are used for harassment, surveillance and mind control. Agencies like the Pentagon, CIA and NSA use them to monitor people, manipulate their minds, harm, and at times kill them. The Navy Times called them the "most feared and controversial weapon(s) of (the) modern age."
Human experiments in America go back decades, an earlier article addressed MK-ULTRA (and others), accessed through the following link:
Begun in 1953, it was the code name for a secret CIA mind control program to perfect a truth drug. It followed earlier WW II hypnosis, primitive drugs research, and the US Navy's Project Chatter, identifying and testing drugs on both animal and human subjects. These and other experiments aimed to control human behavior through psychedelic and halluncinogenic drugs, electroshock, radiation, graphology, paramilitary techniques, and various psychological/sociological/
They comprised a vast open-field of mind experimentation, using anything that might work, legal or not on willing and unwitting subjects. For example, Dr. Ross Adey worked on the CIA's Pandora Project, using microwaves to send signals to human brains. Cataloguing the results, he showed how they affected emotional and pathological states. He also learned that human brains could be controlled remotely through extremely low frequency modulated microwave beams, able to cause psychological and physical harm.
People could be turned in zombies, their minds easily controlled. Physical harm also resulted, affecting their blood, cardiovascular system, cells, central nervous and digestive systems, glands, metabolism, reproduction, eyesight, and hearing. In addition, subjects could be made suicidal or driven mad. Moreover, sounds and speech can be placed in victims' brains, actual voices they can't control or stop.
Other effects include unexplainable burning, itching, tickling or pressure; "humming" or "buzzing" causing sleeplessness and anxiety; loss of body control, producing sudden twitching or jerking of an arm or leg; and feelings of dread, rage, lust, sorrow, or other emotions that come and go quickly.
Moreover, microwave cooking can heat people to death by increasing the radiation field intensity, causing local hot spots in eyes, gall bladders, and other body parts. Paralysis can also be induced. Memories are erased or impaired. Cancerous cells can be produced, and behavior modified the way authorities wish, even turning people into killers, microwave signals directing them. The entire mobile phone network can be used for these purposes, yet people are unaware of what's happening.
Post-WW II, human radiation experiments were conducted, affecting thousands of US citizens. Millions more were exposed to radioactive fallout from over 200 atmospheric and underground tests. At the Nevada site in the 1950s and 1960s, detonations affected over 200,000 '"atomic vets," thousands more downwind also in Nevada, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. These and numerous other physical and psychological experiments caused enormous harm to hundreds of thousands of unwitting people, victimized by their own country.
Electronic harassment and mind control technologies direct energy through lasers, radio frequency energy beams, holography, interferometry, electromagnetic radiation, radio and sound waves, satellites, radar, miniature electronic robots, smart dust, and other means. All do it invisibly over thousands of miles. They can penetrate walls, buildings, metals, concrete, mountains and thousands of miles of earth.
Intersecting energy beams create radiation pockets in victims, engineered to contain sound waves, messages, heat and pressure stress, simulated forms of electromagnetic radiation, telepathic images, as well as holographic and virtual reality simulations. Directed energy beams can also track, locate and target people harmfully. They can only be blocked by force fields or materials that absorb or deflect them. What they are remain top secret.
Bush I declared the 1990s "The Decade of the Brain," an effort "to enhance public awareness of the benefits to be derived from brain research," keeping its dark side hidden.
The Pentagon's DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) conducted research and development in "augmented cognition," what universities call "cognitive science." It's the interdisciplinary study of how information is represented and transformed in the brain. The Pentagon's purpose was for military applications, including manipulating the emotions and behavior of adversaries.
Used globally, it's applicable individually, for crowd control, or larger groups, using millimeter waves, pulsed energy projectiles, and high power magnetic weapons, subjects unaware of what's hitting them.
The NSA's Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) involves decoding EMF waves to tap into computers wirelessly and track people. Using EMF Brain Stimulation to monitor individuals, organizations and nations, it complements the CIA/Defense Intelligence Agency's (DIA) Human Intelligence (HUMINT), and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's Imagery Intelligence (IMINT). NSA's DOMINT can track millions of people simultaneously. It can also inflict harm, control subjects psychologically and kill.
In conflict zones like Iraq and Afghanistan, "Project Sheriff" is used to give "troops working in urban terrain more options" against combatants and noncombatants alike. Humvees and armored personnel carriers have been retrofitted with non-lethal weapons, including microwave-like pain rays (an Active Denial System) and a Long Range Acoustic Device emitting earsplitting sounds.
Pulsed Energy Projectiles (PEPs) travel nearly at the speed of light. With pinpoint accuracy, they emit invisible laser pulses, electromagnetic radiation, stunning targets, knocking them off their feet, paralyzing them in pain. Their long-term effects, however, are unknown, including on the brain.
Voice to Skull directed acoustic devices are neuro-electromagnetic non-lethal weapons, able to produce mood-altering sounds in a person's head. Remote Neural Monitoring (RNM) uses satellite transmitted extra low frequencies (ELF) to send voice to brain communications. Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs) are used for crowd control. They produce 150-decibel acoustic beams, "designed to communicate with authority and exceptionally high intelligibility in a 15 - 30 degree beam." They emit verbal challenges over distances beyond 500 meters, with warning tones to influence behavior. They can also inflict physical harm, manipulate minds, and cause death.
The field of Augmented Cognition includes Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), used therapeutically and for military purposes. The latter is to emit close proximity electrical impulses to the brain to affect mood, sleep patterns, and improve cognitive abilities in areas of learning, memory, attentiveness, visualization, and decision-making. The long-term neurological effects are unknown. The potential for human harm is considerable.
Transmitted over long distances, silent psychotronic weapons can cause illness or death for no apparent reason. In his 1970 book, "Between Two Ages," Zbigniew Brezezinski, discussed technologies to conduct secret warfare, saying:
"It is possible - and tempting - to exploit, for strategic-political purposes, the fruits of research on the brain and on human behavior....Accurately timed, artificially excited electronic strokes could lead to a pattern of oscillations that produce relatively high power levels over certain regions of the earth....In this way, one could develop a system that would seriously impair the brain performance of a very large population in selected regions, over an extended period."
Most people know nothing about directed energy weapons, manipulating, incapacitating and killing many thousands who have no idea what hit them. America has been a longtime global offender, developing and using them for decades to surveille, harass, intimidate, manipulate, torture, and kill. They can also read minds and turn people into zombies. Why? To achieve total unchallengeable control.
So-called "non-lethal weapons" can be as harmful as killer ones. Ongoing research, in fact, is chilling. Waging war on human minds and bodies, it's morally, ethically, and legally indefensible. Continuing, however, atrocity technologies are produced, mostly without public knowledge or that governments like America use them against their own people and others. For ill, of course, not good. Dr. Mengele lives.
