brutal blade

This is my personal experience which I thought would etch my memories with a positve effect. But what happened was a mere oblivion.

There was a call from my friend Barathwaj. He informed me about the seminar on Evolution of mankind at IIT Madras auditorium. I thought it would be a barter of intelectual thoughts and was very much excited. The presenter(michael cremo) whom I suppose is an evangelist of vedic thoughts, started with a dull expression on his face. He argued (or should I say informed) that evolution is not a process as proposed by Darwin and others. He claimed to have researched on this topic for 8 years. But he was not upto the mark of proving the credibility of his basic idea(which was also not clear).

Though the speech didn't excite me much, an announcement that seminars by Arundathi Roy and many prominent writers in the months to come are in the agenda was worth for the time spent.
