ரூ.10ல் சிறுநீரகக்கல்லுக்கு தீர்வு..! நான் மருத்துவம் படித்த மருத்துவர் அல்ல. எனது அனுபவத்தில் நான் மேற்கொண்ட, பலனைத்தந்த வீட்டுச் சிகிச்சையை எழுதியிருக்கிறேன். இன்றைய உணவுப்பழக்கத்தினால், சிறுநீரக கல் பிரச்சினை என்பது பெரும்பாலானவர்களுக்கு சாதாரணமாகிவிட்டது. இதனால் உண்டாகும் வலியானது, எனது அனுபவத்தில் வேறு எந்த வலியோடும் ஒப்பிடமுடியாதது. எனக்கு நான்கு வருடங்களுக்கு முன், இடுப்பில் வலி ஏற்பட்ட போது முதலில் வாயு பிரச்சினையாக இருக்கும் என்று நினைத்தேன், ஆனால் வலியின் அளவு கூடிக்கொண்டே போய் தாங்க முடியாத அளவுக்கு அதிகரித்தது. மருத்துவரிடம் சென்றால் ஸ்கேன் எடுக்க பரிந்துரைத்தார். ஸ்கேன் ரிப்போர்ட்டில் எனக்கு, 5mm மற்றும் 9mm-ல் இரண்டு கற்கள் சிறுநீரகத்தில் இருப்பதாகவும், இதை அறுவை சிகிச்சை மூலம்தான் அகற்றமுடியும் என்றும் மருத்துவர் சொன்னார். மருத்துவச் செலவாக `30,000/- ஆகுமென்றும் சொன்னார். சரி இந்த அறுவை சிகிச்சை செய்துவிட்டால், இனிமேல் இந்த பிரச்சினை வராதா என்று கேட்டால், அதற்கு உத்திரவாதம் இல்லை, உங்களின் உணவு முறை மற்றும் நீங்கள் தினமும் அருந்தும் தண்ணீரின் அளவைப் பொறுத்தது என்றார். சரி நாளை வருகிறேன் என்று வீடு வந்தேன். இத்தனைக்கும், என் நண்பன் ஒருவனுக்கு இதே பிரச்சினை வந்ததிலிருந்து வாழைத்தண்டு சாரும், வாழைத்தண்டு பொறியலும் அடிக்கடி சாப்பிட்டு வந்தேன், இருந்தாலும் எனக்கு தண்ணீர் அருந்தும் பழக்கம் குறைவானதால் வந்துவிட்டது போலும். எனவே கூகுளிடம் சரண்டர், ஒரு மணி நேரத்தேடலுக்குப் பிறகு, சிகிச்சை பெற்ற ஒரு புண்ணியவான் அந்த காய்கறி பெயர்+ திரவத்தின் பெயரை வெளியிட்டிருந்தார் அந்த காய்கறியின் பெயர் ஃபிரஞ்சு பீன்ஸ்(French beans) , திரவத்தின் பெயர் தண்ணீர் (அட வீட்ல நாம தினமும் குடிப்பது தான்). ( ¼ ) கால் கிலோ ஃபிரஞ்சு பீன்ஸ் ( எல்லா கடைகளிலும் கிடைக்கிறது ) `ரூ10-க்கு வாங்கி, விதை நீக்கி, தண்ணீரில் கொதிக்க வைத்து (குறைந்தது 2 மணிநேரம்), மிக்ஸியில் நன்றாக அரைத்து குடித்து விட்டு, 10 நிமிடம் கழித்து, 2 லிட்டர் நீரை ( ஒரே முறையில் குடிக்க முடியவில்லையென்றால் சிறிது நேரம் விட்டு விட்டு) குடிக்க வேண்டும், இன்னும் அதிகமாக குடிக்க முடிந்தால் நலம். நான் இதை குடித்தவுடன் (மாலை 5 மனிக்கு) , விடியற்காலை 3 ½ மணிக்கு (அதுவரை அடிக்கடி நீர் அருந்திகொண்டிருந்தேன், வலியில் எங்கே தூங்குவது...) 5 சிறு கற்களாக சிறுநீர் போகும்போது வெளிவந்தது. கல்லானது சிறுநீரகத்திலிருந்து சிறு பைப் வழியாக சிறுநீர்பைக்கு சென்றடைகிறவரையிலும் வலி கொடுமையானதாக இருக்கும், அதன் பின் சிறுநீர் பையிலிருந்து வெளி வருகிறவரை, சிறுநீர் பாதையை அடைத்துக் கொண்டு, சிறுநீர் வரும்.. ஆனால் வராது... என்ற கதையாகிவிடும், பயந்துவிடாமல், நாம் பருகும் நீரின் அளவை அதிகரிக்க வேண்டும், சிறுநீர்பை நிறைந்து சிறுநீர் கழிப்பது கட்டுபடுத்தாத நிலைவரும், அப்போது, நாம் அதிக அழுத்ததுடன் சிறுநீர்கழித்தால் , வெளியே வந்துவிடும். கற்கள் ஒரு ஸேப் (SHAPE) இல்லாமல் இருப்பதால், உள்பாதையில் கிழித்து ரத்தமும் வரலாம், ஒரு நாளில் சரியாகிவிடும். மறுநாள் எடுதத ஸ்கேனில் கற்கள் இல்லையென்று ரிப்போர்ட் வந்தது. அதிலிருந்து வாரம் ஒருமுறை இதை சாப்பிடுகிறேன், எனக்கு கல் பிரச்சினை போயே போயிந்தி.. இட்ஸ் கான்... இனிமேல் கல் உருவாகாமல் பார்த்துக்கொள்ளலாம். தினமும் 3 லிட்டர் வரையிலும் தண்ணீர் குடித்து விடுங்கள். சிறுநீரக்கல் வலி வந்த பிறகு அது தொடர்பாக நான் இணையதலத்தில் படித்ததில் சில : துளசி இலை(basil) : இந்த இலையின் சாருடன் , தேன் கலந்து ஆறு நாட்கள் உண்டால், கல் உடந்து விடுமாம்.( கல்வலி வந்த பிறகு ஆறு நட்கள் என்பது மிக அதிகமான காலம், அதனால், இதை நாம் கல்உருவாவதை தடுக்கும் முன்னெச்சரிக்கைக்காக அருந்தலாம்) ஆப்பிள்(Apple) : அடிக்கடி சாப்பிட்டாலும் கல் உருவாகாதாம். திராட்சை ( Grapes) : இதில் உள்ள, நீரும், பொடாசியம் உப்பும், கல் உருவாகுவதை தடுக்குமாம். மேலும் இந்த பழத்தில் உள்ள ஆல்புமின் மற்றும் சோடியம் குளோரைடு கல் பிரச்சினக்கு நல்ல தீர்வாக இருக்குமாம். மாதுளம் பழம்(pomegranate ): இந்த பழத்தின் விதையைப் பிழிந்து, ஒரு டேபில் ஸ்பூன் அளவு எடுத்து, அதனுடன் 2 ஸ்பூன் கொள்ளு சாருடன்( குதிரைக்கு பிடித்தது..!!) சேர்த்து சாப்பிட்டால் , கல் பிரச்சினை தீருமாம். அத்திப்பழம்(Figs) : இந்த பழத்தை, நீரில் கொதிக்க வைத்து வடிகட்டி, ஒரு மாதம் தொடர்ந்து, காலையில் காலி வயிற்றில், பருகினால் பலன் தருமாம். தண்ணீர்பழம்(water melon ): நீரின் அளவு அதிகம் உள்ள பழம், பொட்டாசியம் உப்பின் அளவும் அதிகமாம், அதிகம் உண்பதால் கல் பிரச்சினை தீருமாம். இளநீர் : இளநீர் அதிக அளவு சேர்த்துக் கொல்வதாலும் கல் உருவாவதை தடுக்கலாமாம். வாழைத்தண்டு ஜூஸ் : வாழைத்தண்டு ஜூசுக்கு கல் உருவாவதை + கல் உருவானதை உடைக்கும்(diffuse) திரன் உள்ளதாம். மேற்சொன்னதை எவ்வளவு உட்கொண்டாலும், குடிக்கும் தண்ணீரின் அளவு (தினமும் 2 லிட்டரிலிருந்து 3 லிட்டர் வரை) குறைந்தால் கல் உருவாவது நிச்சயம் என்கிறார்கள். பின் குறிப்பு 1 : கல் ஏற்பட்ட பின் வலியை பொருக்கமுடியாதவர்கள் மருத்துவரிடம் சென்றுவிடுவதே நல்லது. பின் குறிப்பு 2 : இந்த முறையில் பக்க விளைவுகளுக்கு சாத்தியமே இல்லையென்பதால், தைரியமாக பின்பற்றலாம். இதுவரை கல் பிரச்சினை வராதவர்களும் பின்பற்றலாம்.

ரூ.10ல் சிறுநீரகக்கல்லுக்கு தீர்வு..!

நான் மருத்துவம் படித்த மருத்துவர் அல்ல. எனது அனுபவத்தில் நான் மேற்கொண்ட, பலனைத்தந்த வீட்டுச் சிகிச்சையை எழுதியிருக்கிறேன்.

இன்றைய உணவுப்பழக்கத்தினால், சிறுநீரக கல் பிரச்சினை என்பது பெரும்பாலானவர்களுக்கு சாதாரணமாகிவிட்டது.

இதனால் உண்டாகும் வலியானது, எனது அனுபவத்தில் வேறு எந்த வலியோடும் ஒப்பிடமுடியாதது.

எனக்கு நான்கு வருடங்களுக்கு முன், இடுப்பில் வலி ஏற்பட்ட போது முதலில் வாயு பிரச்சினையாக இருக்கும் என்று நினைத்தேன், ஆனால் வலியின் அளவு
கூடிக்கொண்டே போய் தாங்க முடியாத அளவுக்கு அதிகரித்தது. மருத்துவரிடம் சென்றால் ஸ்கேன் எடுக்க பரிந்துரைத்தார்.

ஸ்கேன் ரிப்போர்ட்டில் எனக்கு, 5mm மற்றும் 9mm-ல் இரண்டு கற்கள் சிறுநீரகத்தில் இருப்பதாகவும், இதை அறுவை சிகிச்சை மூலம்தான் அகற்றமுடியும் என்றும் மருத்துவர் சொன்னார்.

மருத்துவச் செலவாக `30,000/- ஆகுமென்றும் சொன்னார். சரி இந்த அறுவை சிகிச்சை செய்துவிட்டால், இனிமேல் இந்த பிரச்சினை வராதா என்று கேட்டால், அதற்கு உத்திரவாதம் இல்லை, உங்களின் உணவு முறை மற்றும் நீங்கள் தினமும்
அருந்தும் தண்ணீரின் அளவைப் பொறுத்தது என்றார்.

சரி நாளை வருகிறேன் என்று வீடு வந்தேன். இத்தனைக்கும், என் நண்பன் ஒருவனுக்கு இதே பிரச்சினை வந்ததிலிருந்து வாழைத்தண்டு சாரும்,
வாழைத்தண்டு பொறியலும் அடிக்கடி சாப்பிட்டு வந்தேன், இருந்தாலும் எனக்கு தண்ணீர் அருந்தும் பழக்கம் குறைவானதால் வந்துவிட்டது போலும்.

எனவே கூகுளிடம் சரண்டர், ஒரு மணி நேரத்தேடலுக்குப் பிறகு, சிகிச்சை பெற்ற
ஒரு புண்ணியவான் அந்த காய்கறி பெயர்+ திரவத்தின் பெயரை வெளியிட்டிருந்தார்

அந்த காய்கறியின் பெயர் ஃபிரஞ்சு பீன்ஸ்(French beans) , திரவத்தின் பெயர் தண்ணீர் (அட வீட்ல நாம தினமும் குடிப்பது தான்).


( ¼ ) கால் கிலோ ஃபிரஞ்சு பீன்ஸ் ( எல்லா கடைகளிலும் கிடைக்கிறது ) `ரூ10-க்கு வாங்கி, விதை நீக்கி, தண்ணீரில் கொதிக்க வைத்து (குறைந்தது 2
மணிநேரம்), மிக்ஸியில் நன்றாக அரைத்து குடித்து விட்டு, 10 நிமிடம் கழித்து, 2 லிட்டர் நீரை ( ஒரே முறையில் குடிக்க முடியவில்லையென்றால்
சிறிது நேரம் விட்டு விட்டு) குடிக்க வேண்டும், இன்னும் அதிகமாக குடிக்க
முடிந்தால் நலம்.

நான் இதை குடித்தவுடன் (மாலை 5 மனிக்கு) , விடியற்காலை 3 ½ மணிக்கு (அதுவரை அடிக்கடி நீர் அருந்திகொண்டிருந்தேன், வலியில் எங்கே தூங்குவது...) 5 சிறு கற்களாக சிறுநீர் போகும்போது வெளிவந்தது.

கல்லானது சிறுநீரகத்திலிருந்து சிறு பைப் வழியாக சிறுநீர்பைக்கு சென்றடைகிறவரையிலும் வலி கொடுமையானதாக இருக்கும், அதன் பின் சிறுநீர் பையிலிருந்து வெளி வருகிறவரை, சிறுநீர் பாதையை அடைத்துக் கொண்டு, சிறுநீர் வரும்.. ஆனால் வராது... என்ற கதையாகிவிடும்,

பயந்துவிடாமல், நாம் பருகும் நீரின் அளவை அதிகரிக்க வேண்டும், சிறுநீர்பை நிறைந்து சிறுநீர் கழிப்பது கட்டுபடுத்தாத நிலைவரும்,

அப்போது, நாம் அதிக அழுத்ததுடன் சிறுநீர்கழித்தால் , வெளியே வந்துவிடும். கற்கள் ஒரு ஸேப் (SHAPE) இல்லாமல் இருப்பதால், உள்பாதையில் கிழித்து
ரத்தமும் வரலாம், ஒரு நாளில் சரியாகிவிடும்.

மறுநாள் எடுதத ஸ்கேனில் கற்கள் இல்லையென்று ரிப்போர்ட் வந்தது.

அதிலிருந்து வாரம் ஒருமுறை இதை சாப்பிடுகிறேன், எனக்கு கல் பிரச்சினை
போயே போயிந்தி.. இட்ஸ் கான்...

இனிமேல் கல் உருவாகாமல் பார்த்துக்கொள்ளலாம். தினமும் 3 லிட்டர் வரையிலும் தண்ணீர் குடித்து விடுங்கள்.



சிறுநீரக்கல் வலி வந்த பிறகு அது தொடர்பாக நான் இணையதலத்தில் படித்ததில் சில :

துளசி இலை(basil) : இந்த இலையின் சாருடன் , தேன் கலந்து ஆறு நாட்கள் உண்டால், கல் உடந்து விடுமாம்.( கல்வலி வந்த பிறகு ஆறு நட்கள் என்பது மிக அதிகமான காலம், அதனால், இதை நாம் கல்உருவாவதை தடுக்கும் முன்னெச்சரிக்கைக்காக அருந்தலாம்)

ஆப்பிள்(Apple) : அடிக்கடி சாப்பிட்டாலும் கல் உருவாகாதாம்.

திராட்சை ( Grapes) : இதில் உள்ள, நீரும், பொடாசியம் உப்பும், கல் உருவாகுவதை தடுக்குமாம். மேலும் இந்த பழத்தில் உள்ள ஆல்புமின் மற்றும் சோடியம் குளோரைடு கல் பிரச்சினக்கு நல்ல தீர்வாக இருக்குமாம்.

மாதுளம் பழம்(pomegranate ): இந்த பழத்தின் விதையைப் பிழிந்து, ஒரு டேபில் ஸ்பூன் அளவு எடுத்து, அதனுடன் 2 ஸ்பூன் கொள்ளு சாருடன்(
குதிரைக்கு பிடித்தது..!!) சேர்த்து சாப்பிட்டால் , கல் பிரச்சினை தீருமாம்.

அத்திப்பழம்(Figs) : இந்த பழத்தை, நீரில் கொதிக்க வைத்து வடிகட்டி, ஒரு மாதம் தொடர்ந்து, காலையில் காலி வயிற்றில், பருகினால் பலன் தருமாம்.

தண்ணீர்பழம்(water melon ): நீரின் அளவு அதிகம் உள்ள பழம், பொட்டாசியம் உப்பின் அளவும் அதிகமாம், அதிகம் உண்பதால் கல் பிரச்சினை தீருமாம்.

இளநீர் : இளநீர் அதிக அளவு சேர்த்துக் கொல்வதாலும் கல் உருவாவதை தடுக்கலாமாம்.

வாழைத்தண்டு ஜூஸ் : வாழைத்தண்டு ஜூசுக்கு கல் உருவாவதை + கல் உருவானதை உடைக்கும்(diffuse) திரன் உள்ளதாம்.

மேற்சொன்னதை எவ்வளவு உட்கொண்டாலும், குடிக்கும் தண்ணீரின் அளவு (தினமும் 2 லிட்டரிலிருந்து 3 லிட்டர் வரை) குறைந்தால் கல் உருவாவது நிச்சயம் என்கிறார்கள்.

பின் குறிப்பு 1 : கல் ஏற்பட்ட பின் வலியை பொருக்கமுடியாதவர்கள் மருத்துவரிடம் சென்றுவிடுவதே நல்லது.

பின் குறிப்பு 2 : இந்த முறையில் பக்க விளைவுகளுக்கு சாத்தியமே இல்லையென்பதால், தைரியமாக பின்பற்றலாம். இதுவரை கல் பிரச்சினை வராதவர்களும் பின்பற்றலாம்.

Mahaperiyavaa life incident ........... Auditor Venugopal was a native of Salem. He was a staunch bhakta (devotee) of Maha PeriyavaaL. He was the auditor of Kanchi Sankara MaTham. It was his custom to say word for word that it was only Maha Periyavaa who guided him to that profession. As he gained some popularity, Venugopal bought a car. The desire of showing to Maha PeriyavaaL the new car bought for the first time (in his life) rising in his heart, Venugopal was headed straight for Kanchipuram in his car. Only when he parked the car in front of the MaTham did he come to know that the Mahaan was camping in Kalavai! The car then started off its trip to Kalavai. Parking the car outside where Maha PeriyavaaL was staying, Venugopal went inside the camp. As he saw Venugopal entering, Maha Periyavaa asked him, "car vAngiyirukkiyo? (So you have bought a car?)". And that was even before Venugopal started telling the sage about his new car. The auditor was dumbstruck. The Mahaan was one who knew time in all its three tenses. "Yes", he said slowly. For a moment he even thought if it was a mistake in buying the new car before he had a word with the Mahaan. But then the Mahaan never found fault with living comfortably within one's means! "It is a good thing only. Alright, you do an errand for me now!" said the Mahaan. The auditor only nodded his head in affirmation, consenting to do an errand for the sage. "You need to go a little distance from here and turn right. If you go along the road thereafter, you will sight a pond. An old man will be sitting on the banks of the pond. You bring him here in your car. What, will you do it?" The auditor started off even before the Mahaan finished. Going like an arrow on its course, the auditor found the old man with a beard on the banks of a pond. He did not think if Periyavaa wanted to bring that old man. For he knew that there would be a thousand meanings in what Periyavaa said. Going near the old man, the auditor spoke to him about the sage's instructions. "Did he call me? Then surely I shall come with you", said the old man. Staggering, he got into the auditor's brand new car, who took him to the Mahaan's sannidhi (presence). The old man stood folding his palms before the sage. "enna saukkiyama irukkiyA? (What, are you doing well?)" was the question Periyavaa asked the old man. "edo irukkEn (somewhat fine)!" The MaThams honours were given to the old man in accordance with the directions of the sage. After giving the old man dhoties, shawls and some money for his expenses to the man's satisfaction, Kanchi Mahaan told the auditor: "Take him and drop him where he wants to alight and then come back!" A car ride for the old man again. The auditor dropped him as he desired and then came back to the MaTham. He did not ask who that old man was, nor the sage said anything about it. Auditor Venugopal stood before the Mahaan, his hands humbly folded across his chest. "The man you brought here--do you know who he is?" The auditor nodded his head to say no. "When I was a small boy, suddenly one day he brought me in his horse cart. I did not know why at that time. Only after coming here, they said that I was the 68th PIThAdhipati (pontiff)... I did not know Samskrutam at that time... I did not know Vedas... Only after coming over here, all those lessons. How many years have gone by, did you notice it? It was only this periyavar (respectable old man) who brought me here, making me sit inside his horse cart. He also did not know then why they asked for me here! How can I forget him? I suddenly remembered him, which is why I asked you to bring him here in your new car," said Maha Periyavaa. Jaya Jaya Shankara Hara hara Shankara

Jaaagthey Raho, Jagaaathey Raho !! "Late last year, two young men decided to live a month of their lives on the income of an average poor Indian. One of them, Tushar, the son of a police officer in Haryana, studied at the University of Pennsylvania and worked for three years as an investment banker in the US and Singapore. The other, Matt, migrated as a teenager to the States with his parents, and studied in MIT. Both decided at different points to return to India, joined the UID Project in Bengaluru, came to share a flat, and became close friends. The idea suddenly struck them one day. Both had returned to India in the vague hope that they could be of use to their country. But they knew the people of this land so little. Tushar suggested one evening - “Let us try to understand an ‘average Indian', by living on an ‘average income'.” His friend Matt was immediately captured by the idea. They began a journey which would change them forever. To begin with, what was the average income of an Indian? They calculated that India's Mean National Income was Rs. 4,500 a month, or Rs. 150 a day. Globally people spend about a third of their incomes on rent. Excluding rent, they decided to spend Rs. 100 each a day. They realised that this did not make them poor, only average. Seventy-five per cent Indians live on less than this average. The young men moved into the tiny apartment of their domestic help, much to her bemusement. What changed for them was that they spent a large part of their day planning and organising their food. Eating out was out of the question; even dhabas were too expensive. Milk and yoghurt were expensive and therefore used sparingly, meat was out of bounds, as were processed food like bread. No ghee or butter, only a little refined oil. Both are passionate cooks with healthy appetites. They found soy nuggets a wonder food — affordable and high on proteins, and worked on many recipes. Parle G biscuits again were cheap: 25 paise for 27 calories! They innovated a dessert of fried banana on biscuits. It was their treat each day. Living on Rs.100 made the circle of their life much smaller. They found that they could not afford to travel by bus more than five km in a day. If they needed to go further, they could only walk. They could afford electricity only five or six hours a day, therefore sparingly used lights and fans. They needed also to charge their mobiles and computers. One Lifebuoy soap cut into two. They passed by shops, gazing at things they could not buy. They could not afford the movies, and hoped they would not fall ill. However, the bigger challenge remained. Could they live on Rs. 32, the official poverty line, which had become controversial after India's Planning Commission informed the Supreme Court that this was the poverty line for cities (for villages it was even lower, at Rs. 26 per person per day)? For this, they decided to go to Matt's ancestral village Karucachal in Kerala, and live on Rs. 26. They ate parboiled rice, a tuber and banana and drank black tea: a balanced diet was impossible on the Rs. 18 a day which their briefly adopted ‘poverty' permitted. They found themselves thinking of food the whole day. They walked long distances, and saved money even on soap to wash their clothes. They could not afford communication, by mobile and internet.

That hunger can make you angry. That a food law which guarantees adequate nutrition to all is essential. That poverty does not allow you to realise even modest dreams. And above all — in Matt's words — that empathy is essential for democracy." Source : http://www.facebook.com/RomancingTheBorder
















Jaaagthey Raho, Jagaaathey Raho !!

"Late last year, two young men decided to live a month of their lives on the income of an average poor Indian. One of them, Tushar, the son of a police officer in Haryana, studied at the University of Pennsylvania and worked for three years as an investment banker in the US and Singapore. The other, Matt, migrated as a teenager to the States with his parents, and studied in MIT. Both decided at different points to return to India, joined the UID Project in Bengaluru, came to share a flat, and became close friends.

The idea suddenly struck them one day. Both had returned to India in the vague hope that they could be of use to their country. But they knew the people of this land so little. Tushar suggested one evening - “Let us try to understand an ‘average Indian', by living on an ‘average income'.” His friend Matt was immediately captured by the idea. They began a journey which would change them forever.

To begin with, what was the average income of an Indian? They calculated that India's Mean National Income was Rs. 4,500 a month, or Rs. 150 a day. Globally people spend about a third of their incomes on rent. Excluding rent, they decided to spend Rs. 100 each a day. They realised that this did not make them poor, only average. Seventy-five per cent Indians live on less than this average.

The young men moved into the tiny apartment of their domestic help, much to her bemusement. What changed for them was that they spent a large part of their day planning and organising their food. Eating out was out of the question; even dhabas were too expensive. Milk and yoghurt were expensive and therefore used sparingly, meat was out of bounds, as were processed food like bread. No ghee or butter, only a little refined oil. Both are passionate cooks with healthy appetites. They found soy nuggets a wonder food — affordable and high on proteins, and worked on many recipes. Parle G biscuits again were cheap: 25 paise for 27 calories! They innovated a dessert of fried banana on biscuits. It was their treat each day.

Living on Rs.100 made the circle of their life much smaller. They found that they could not afford to travel by bus more than five km in a day. If they needed to go further, they could only walk. They could afford electricity only five or six hours a day, therefore sparingly used lights and fans. They needed also to charge their mobiles and computers. One Lifebuoy soap cut into two. They passed by shops, gazing at things they could not buy. They could not afford the movies, and hoped they would not fall ill.

However, the bigger challenge remained. Could they live on Rs. 32, the official poverty line, which had become controversial after India's Planning Commission informed the Supreme Court that this was the poverty line for cities (for villages it was even lower, at Rs. 26 per person per day)?

For this, they decided to go to Matt's ancestral village Karucachal in Kerala, and live on Rs. 26. They ate parboiled rice, a tuber and banana and drank black tea: a balanced diet was impossible on the Rs. 18 a day which their briefly adopted ‘poverty' permitted. They found themselves thinking of food the whole day. They walked long distances, and saved money even on soap to wash their clothes. They could not afford communication, by mobile and internet. It would have been a disaster if they fell ill. For the two 26-year-olds, the experience of ‘official poverty' was harrowing.

Yet, when their experiment ended with Deepavali, they wrote to their friends: “Wish we could tell you that we are happy to have our ‘normal' lives back.

Sri Balakrishna Sastrigal


A retired Senior Executive of State Bank of India, Brahmasri T S Balakrishna Sastrigal started learning the wide spectrum of fundamentals required for performing Harikatha at the very tender age of 8 under the guidance of his father, himself a doyen in Puranic Upanyasakams called Brahmasri Sambamoorthi Ganapaadigal. The training included Vedas, Puranas, Sastras, Karnatic Music, and Multiple Languages like Tamil, Telugu, Sanskrit, Malayalam, Kanada and English.
Being a bank employee his virtual induction to performing Harikatha was initiated at the age of 16 by his father in law, himself an exponent in 18 Puranaas called Srivatsa Somadeva Sarama. Spanning over almost 7 decades, the service Brahmashri Sastrigal rendered to the society through his sole stirring Musical Discourses was immense.
His repertoire was spontaneous yet comprehensive, down to earth yet profound, innovative yet authentic, creative thusfresh. His audience felt as though they were literally transported to Ayodhya or Ashoka Vana or Asthinapura or to the battle field of Kurukshetra through his extremely sensitive and dramatic discription of the sequences of Ramayana and Mahabaratha with a reverberating voice and lilting music. While his imaginative unfurling of each of the characters in any epic provided the audience an easy access to truth and reality, his uncanny humorous interludes not only made them laugh their heart out but also think after they laughed.
His portrayals ranged from Valimiki and Kamba Ramayanam, Mahabharatham, Srimad Bhagawatham, Devi Bhagawatham, Skaandham, Naaraayaaneeyam, Naayanmargal charitham and above all his master piece – Thyagaja Charitham. He was a legend in the comprehension of Thyagaraja Krithis and therefore an easy reference point for all the Sangeetha Vidwans who wished to handle any aboorva krithi of Thyagaraja Swamigal. Infact, Brahmashri Sastrigal went on to conceive, design and perform his own version of Ramakatha choreographed with appropriate Thyagaraja krithis popularly known as Thyagaraja Ramayanam. While the great saint Thyagaraja did not himself wrote Ramayana, this Thyagara Ramayana was out and out the brain child of Brahmashri Sastrigal – his method of saluting the first among the Musical Trinities.
