Why do we take on Avatars?

with one comment

I woke up this morning thinking of Dominance and Rebellion and wondering what the story of the slayer of Kings known as Parasurama would tell me today.

Why did the two avatars coexist in the telling of this myth?

- the one reinstating a particular form of governmentality – Rama

- and the one systematically demolishing Representatives of Authority – Parasurama

what does the schizophrenia of the moment of their co-existence tell us about the Avataric existences

in today’s Global cultures?

I am on a different sort of journey this winter break…

not hopping on a flight to Sheffield, Minneapolis or Hyderabad.

not driving down to Chicago, Milwaukee, Boston or Cleveland.

okay WordPress gods – still having problems posting Telugu hindi etc

The only post I found in support is one that asks about the very same problem I am having.

of course in terms of being able to use Indic fonts on the web and in email – its WAAAY different than when I use to use Ileap and save as gif etc and put up – I think in 2001.

I can do indic scripts in facebook too.

But now writing letters via email to my Mother would have little point – her eyesight is failing too much.

They mean – may you not die alone and helpless
May you die in the arms of someone who cares deeply for you…
