Owl English Version

Hello Everyone! I’m Padmini Arhant. Author & Presenter PadminiArhant.com. Representative divine mission.

How are you all doing?  I hope you are all doing good.

I believe in fairness. I presented this topic on Owl in two different Indian languages. Here is the English version.

Sometimes certain words, things and creatures could have different connotations and meaning considering the complexity and diversity in world creations.

In this presentation, my focus is on Owl.  Owl is a bird treated differently with paradoxical reference.

Owl in Indian culture and Indian subcontinent is often cited for foolishness and actions not so intelligent.  When someone does something plain stupid then they are referred to as an owl.

Similarly, when someone is fooled by others, then colloquial inference is – I was made an owl in that deal or duped and made a fool of by so and so.

Anything not smart and bright in response and behavior are ascribed to owl.

The flip side on owl is there are some who think of owl to be otherwise.

They regard the owl as wise and a creature with intellect. They seek guidance and directions from the owl.  These individuals who revere owl belong to the cult and they are powerful members in society reining control over world affairs and system.

The cult gathering is scheduled annually in July in Bohemian Grove, the redwood forests about 65 miles north of San Francisco, California, United States of America.

They assemble naked before the 40 foot statue of the Owl. They perform strange and bizarre rituals like burning human and child effigy as a sacrifice to the owl.  There is also wailing to create sinister ambience. 

Additionally, there are indulgences satisfying their wild fancies amongst them that are ironically scorned by them during appearance in the outside world.

Obviously just like the owl they worship, there is a dichotomy in them as well. What they pretend to be in the world is not necessarily who they are in reality.

Anybody adhering to secretive and discreet lifestyle would have difficulty in dealing with transparency.  Only those embarrassed and shameful of their actions or attributes would choose to hide information.

Here we are not looking at some group isolated from the world, lost in the deserts, dense forests or mountains not wanting to be traceable.

These are prominent players with immense clout wheeling authority on the destiny of seven billion populations in the world. 

The unconventional, archaic and primitive tradition among them in the modern era when they are challenging to conquer space reveals their original identity.

These are the same people having introduced massive dragnet surveillance on citizens living normal life. They are curious about your daily life say from you watering your plants in the backyard to washing your car or taking your dog for a walk in the park.  The regular people with hobbies and interests in life doing what they do for recreations are all observed by watchful eye.

At the same time, something so bemusing about their involvement like this getaway and rendezvous shunning the world with serious consequences for those daring disclosure explains the new world order.

Don’t you think the crafty demeanor from anyone else would be reproached unlike the cult self-granted exemption regardless of the propensity to crude and lewd pursuits compromising the self-assumed high held stature in society?

The reverence to owl emphasize their submission to superstitions and outdated norms. In case the non-cult members were to follow the same, they would scowl at them. There has already been remark from their agent on payroll sneering at immigrants claiming the immigrant in America are from backward culture.

Whatever happens in the secret location, Bohemian grove, it is clear they are not impressive and decent to say the least especially this coming from those poised as rulers of the planet.

I have nothing against anyone retaining rich cultural heritage. In fact, I admire the natives around the world maintaining certain customs like nature worship expressing gratitude to sun and rain god being the natural elements making life possible.

In contradiction, the owl worshippers criticize cow veneration. They make fun of people for cow worship and the term Holy Cow is often the subject of mockery and parody. Needless to say anything sane and sensible are rejected by the ignorant ones adapting to inverse trend.

I will tell you why the Holy Cow is indeed holier than thou.  Cow is an herbivore. The grass eating mammal produces milk from which variety of dairy products are obtained providing protein and nutrition for healthy living.

Cow’s milk boosts energy and stamina enhancing human and other living beings physical strength. Cow essentially serves as the cornucopia of food in diverse category. Above all, cow is part of human diet as the beef for some non-vegetarians.

Cow is not only the provider of healthy food but also consumed by humans to content their appetite. As a result she is and will always remain a symbol of sacrifice and major source for life existence.

I am not sure how the owl meets the requirement to gain the status of worship?  Only the owl worshippers could explain in this regard. The apparently talking owl giving ideas to these leaders and magnates in politics, business, communication media and other fields wearing the hat with imprint – Jack of all trades and masters of the world do not want to share this strange experience with the rest of the world.

In approaching the owl for advice and counsel performing unusual rites they believe to be invigorated with supreme power.  May be that’s why in burning human and child effigy, there is no end in sight in shedding human blood in war zones perpetuated via terror sponsoring and spreading violence wherever and whenever possible.

I would like to know what exactly is the owl telling them? Never to stop killing innocent people and engage in depleting scarce resources in the name of dominance?

Why do they have problems with any public exposure?  As I said earlier, anyone enigmatic as they are when they know whatever they are doing is not right and do not fit in within normal confines of conduct prefer smoke screen.

Let me clarify my position.  I am not here to discriminate owl or any other species for that matter.  I believe all species have traits and characteristics that are natural in many ways and more than ever at times manufactured by humans to suit their preference.

There is a need for the world to be relieved from persisting state of darkness. The ones in authority and influential status misleading the world based on the belief that the 40 foot speaking owl statue is the role model and accordingly they would continue on the path proved counterproductive and self-destructive prompts serious concerns and raise questions on such routine.

Not so surprising in this labyrinth of clandestineness is the affluent, famous and powerful class in Indian society that has negative implications to owl in local idiom carry out instructions from owl worshippers with passion.

I suppose in the owl worship, the worshippers return with tricks and tactics in making an owl (fool) out of the global citizenry and those in awe of the world’s most powerful members in particular.

Not to mention becoming the joke about how one turned out to be the biggest owl i.e. conned by con-artists.

Cheers!

Thank you.

Hi there!

How are you all doing? Did you enjoy the evening watching the awards and accolades presented to those performing the scripted role designed to be parody?

You know come to think of parody, it is the trend to deflect attention from reality.  Parody is mockery, satire, not limited to perversion, distortion and misrepresentation among many other synonyms related to this word.

In present time, I find many bizarre events happening. Among them, there is something that I can personally relate to and that being – my gender and religion not barring several characteristics about me concocted to be anything but me.

I am projected as a male not a female while simultaneously a transgender. My religion despite confirmed as a Hindu is certified Muslim. My physical features are not spared either. I am caricatured as big horizontally and small vertically in addition to disproportionality in so many dimensions with apparently blonde hair, lipstick applied in a manner to have exhausted cosmetic brand one month’s supply in one application.

Clothes not considered a requirement even though I am draped in a 5 ½ yards spree  the Indian garment or long tunic/top and pants with long scarf called salwar kameez – the traditional Indian attire. This portrayal could be due to one eye on pyramid lacking 20/20 vision. It is bad enough in a pair with impaired visibility and a single tunneled vision could miss a lot of things regardless of bright colored clothing.

In a way the distortion of me and my personal appearance through parody made me wonder about their claim on unlimited potential in them to do anything.

First of all, let me clarify that I am positive about my gender being female for I am a mother and experienced childbirth twice. Unless I am a seahorse which I am not for I exist on land and not under water then the possibility of me being a male going through gestation could be taken into account.

That being the actuality,  their transformation of me from a female to male without having to go through any invasive and complex gender swap medical procedures simply done via parody and innuendoes preempt this question to them.

When you all have such incredible power to make me something that I am not in terms of my physical anatomy and physiological composition, then you should be able to make wonders in the world. Isn’t this fair suggestion?

Would you agree?

Beginning with the following tasks –  you should be able to tame terrorists from flesh eating cannibals to grass munching calves. 

Be rainmaker in drought affected parts of the world.

Solve the mystery behind missing MH370 Malaysian airline that vanished in thin air. Remember, the victims’ families were provided different versions at varying times on the disappearance of the commercial jet with passengers on board.

On the environment front, perhaps the satire kings and queens could modify extreme weather conditions to tolerable temperature after all parody is defined as an act to influence change.

How about make politics depart from empty promises and sloganeering to delivery and substance? Similarly have political members and celebrities surrender wealth held offshore.

Last but not the least why not substitute parody with real comedy sparing entertainment from devious strategy?

Parody is nothing more than a political tool to sneer at the intended target as I have explained above about my profile taken for granted and disfigured to suit convenience resulting in self-deprecation for performers and producers alike much to own disappointment.

I will be back soon with much more on many different issues controversial and congenial.  Otherwise the speculation starts through none other than parody with obituary for me ignoring my living and breathing existence.

Cheers!

Thank you.

Rhapsody – Parody

August 10, 2016

 

By Padmini Arahnt

Hi Everyone!

Hope all is well!

Today I want to shed light on parody.  I’m not sure if you have noticed the trend in parody targeting anything that is sensible, responsible and sane to say the least characterized as crazy talk.  

What does parody mean? – mockery, caricature, spoof, satire, misrepresentation and perversion…among many synonyms intended to reverse the targeted entity’s action, manner and anything about them that are considered a threat to those resisting any change to status quo no matter how demonstrably destructive the conditions are only favoring the resistance brigades’ self-interest.

Accordingly, you witness the wannabees performing the act for those hiring them to do regardless of these paid performers indulgence in self-deprecation. This goes to prove the power of money and greed inhibiting reasoning faculty not to mention their diminutive character on surface.

The clown act by these desperate attention seekers is nothing more than a distraction from the revelations about them and those paying them to keep the smoke screen intact.

Perhaps these puppets leaping from Indian film industry to American movie  and television medium imply in their performance – Monkey see, Monkey do.

I already know the reaction on the idiom with reference to a monkey.

Hey! Relax.  I have not said anything out of context. I have only linked them to Homosapien’s ancestry.

As for plagiarism, piracy and copyright violations that are the current norm, I say to them – piggybacking on others is resignation to self-ineptness and idiosyncrasy.

I will be back soon more on this and other topics for mass awakening to reality.

Thank you.

Padmini Arhant
