WORLD HEART DAY … September 29
Various writings and ads (with commercial colour of discounts) appeared today across the globe scaring the public about their heart health. Some of them, purported to be of educative value to the public, may have a hidden agenda of vested interests. And, some normal persons may be converted into patients ! Much of the modern treatment may be like cutting some of the branches of an evil tree without tackling the roots – tobacco, trans-fat, junk food, smartphones, stress and most of the comforts of modern lifestyle – which are the root cause for HEART diseases. ‘Modernity’ in lifestyle brought in its wake all the adverse factors, STRESS & ECOLOGICAL IMBALANCE (destruction of Nature) being the important ones, associated with money, materialism, competition, comparison, ego, hubris, hegemony, selfishness, greed, arrogance, anger, miserliness, manipulability, vanity, vengeance, etc. MODERNITY may be the root cause for the arrival of COVID. Moderns may have to mend their ways to prevent emergence of more heart problems and new viruses.

Cell phones arrived, we forgot writing letters;
Automobiles arrived, we forgot walking;
Computers arrived, we forgot spellings;
Calculators arrived, we forgot mathematics;
Modern jobs arrived, we forgot families;
TVs arrived, we forgot cinema theatres;
Digital games arrived, we forgot playgrounds;
Modern pharma arrived, we forgot grannies’ remedies;
Speciality hospitals arrived, we forgot ‘MBBS clinics’;
Super-specialists arrived, we forgot family doctors;
Nuclear families arrived, we forgot relationships;
Junk food arrived, we forgot healthy meals;
Food courts arrived, we forgot cooking;
Internet has arrived, we forgot libraries & teachers;
HEART specialists arrived, we forgot HEARTY meals !
COVID has arrived, we forgot everything else !
( I too forgot everything else, and authored 28 articles in 30 months on COVID, during the COVID pandemic, which were published in a monthly medical journal, The Antiseptic – a WORLD RECORD of sorts in medical journalism !!!)
And, now, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) is coming to make us forget about our BRAINS !

There are only 10 faces in this drawing, but the COVID has many more !
The face of COVID would be remembered for a longer time than any of the faces in the ‘tree’ above. Of course, everybody would be forgotten in course of time. And the ‘time’ is a very relative thing. Just see the ‘timeline’ below:
'Age' of the Sun -- 4.54 billion years. Expected lifespan. -- 7 billion years more
'Age' of the Earth -- 4.54 billion years. Expected lifespan -- 1 billion years more
'Age' of Himalayas -- 50 million years
'Age' of Humans. -- 3 lakh years
'Age' of Religions -- 4 thousand years
'Age' of Temples. -- 3 thousand years
‘Age’ of viruses -- 3.5 billion years
‘Age’ of viral epidemics -- 12,000 years
‘Age’ of COVID – about 5 years as in 2024
We have 380 trillion viruses (mostly harmless) on or inside our bodies !!!
“Computer Virus” is a “Mechanical Organism”, such as a computer code, which may damage computers, ‘copy’ itself and ‘infect’ other computers, just like a “Biological Virus”.

LOVABLE RURAL FOLK ... February 10, 2018
Yes, rural are really lovable folk. Most of them have a refreshingly rural and innocent background. They have blind faith in gods, and doctors as well.
After a few decades, we may see no more of such good plain-hearted rural folk. And, even now, we rarely see the good old grand grandmother of ‘topless’ (‘blouseless’) era ! The women of that generation cover their upper bodies with a piece of a cloth only (end piece of sari) wrapped around without any underclothing like bra or blouse.
Today (February 10, 2018), one frail-looking grandmother in that 'topless' attire (see the attached photo) walked into my consultation chamber, accompanied by her grandson, but not needed to be assisted by him to walk in. She (Gowandayamml) fluently talked in the grand old style ... said she got the appointment with great difficulty (limited consultations today, as I had to spare some time to attend my granddaughter's 'food court bonanza' at her school). At the end of the consultation, she wanted a 'cough syrup' (most of the 'cough syrups' are used unnecessarily and for psychological satisfaction, and to the great delightfulness of drug industry !). I gave her a sample bottle of a cough syrup, free of cost, of course ... and lo and behold, her face was lit up with happiness. Little pleasures ... little things matter in life ... read the 'Scribbling' titled 'Richness & Happiness' on my blog. She narrated at length of her previous visits over decades and profusely thanked me for keeping her fit (in fact, it is her good old lifestyle and her constitution that kept her fit, not me !). I asked her whether I may have a photo with her. She was amused and laughed. I called the receptionist to take a photo. The lady of the old school put up a serious pose for the photo. Receptionist, Nandhini, asked her to smile ... in vain ... perhaps, the grandma thought that one should not move or smile when the camera clicks (In our school days, photographers used to instruct us not to move or smile when they take group photos in the school, with those bulky 'plate' cameras with a long exposure time !). I shall give her a print of the photo when she visits me again ... curiously, we both are of the same age group by the calendar, though seem not to be by the images ! Finally, the plain, simple, candid and 'topless' granny left my chamber. After a while, she came back with money (hundred rupees notes) in her hand to put into my tiny 'Pay what you can' hundi, as consultation fee. I had to persuade her a lot not to give any consultation fee, saying that it's a great pleasure for me to treat her free of cost ... again there was a flash of a cheerful smile across her face. This is the most pleasant reward we get in medical practice -- the cheerful smile of satisfaction.
