The subject of today's blog, in my opinion, is one of the œuvre d'art (masterpiece of creation of God) next to water a.k.a Adam's Ale. If you can infer from the title, you get a pat from me. Its the "Human Brain". I always wonder how "bill gates" and next door neighbour "bhagyam mami", though both are gifted with similar brains, they differ in their extremities of thoughts. I am not going to talk about cerbellum/spinal fluids...blah blah. The thing which fascinates me, still "where does a thought begin ? how do we initiate a thought ? what makes us to think ? - these sort of questions are the ones which fascinates me.

This technique is more like a modern day algorithm which classifies the raagas and number them based on the mathematical numbers and swarastanas. If you see the periodic tables advocated by dmitri mendeleev , he classifies them based on valency and weight. similarly the chemical elements have been grouped as ...
