It is really a conspiracy of caste hindus.
How dare still these caste hindus spread such unethical stories that SC/STs are
Adi-sudras! Dr. Ambedkar has written separate volumes on sudras
and Untouchables. He did never have written anything that Untochables as
Adi-sudras. Whatever he said about mulnivasi is in different perspective
to locate the impoverished people in a caste-ridden society. More over, your
interpretation on Adi-Dravida cannot be denied. If the term Adi means ‘pre’
or ‘ancient’, it does mean that the present SC/STs belongs to the community
which belonged to pre-historic period. It also means to me the people who
founded the Harappan Civilization which had seen the Proto-Buddha who might be
Adi-Buddha.
The word Adi is one of the names of
The Buddha (Historical Buddha) who was the Kulaguru (Master) of Sakyas who were
invariably the Avarnas non-caste communities. Pandit Iyotheedas refers Adi
as The Buddha and he gives a plenty of sources one of which is Bodhisatta
Thiruvalluvar’ s Tirikkural (not Thirukkural) . In the first
Chapter titled “Kadavul Vazhthu Enum Buddharathu Paayiram”, Thiruvalluvar
writes in praise of The Buddha as follows:
Agara mudala vezhutthellaam Adi
Bagavan Mudatre yulagu
He places Adi Bagavan as the first of the
world as that of Tamil alphabet ‘Aa’. Thus the Adi-Dravidas, Adi-Vasis,
Adi-Andhras are from the lineage of The Adi Buddha. Pandit Iyotheedas throws a
flood of light on the history of Adi. Please read his writings. We have enough
sources to prove this history and disprove the derogatory defining of
“Adi-sudras”.

Attention All Solopreneurs and Business “Newbies”
I Know You’re Ready to Evolve Your Business!
How do I know that? Because you’re here.
Chances are, you’re either a “newbie” entrepreneur who’s figuring it all
out or you’ve been in business awhile but you’ve hit the proverbial wall (think
Nascar race crash!) and you need to grow your business faster and smarter
starting yesterday.
Well, I can help you do that. I work with business owners just like you to give
them the shortcuts to business evolution. As a business strategist, I know how
to look for the long-range, bigger picture and translate that into the most
focused, prioritized action for the fastest results. And it’s exactly that
which most entrepreneurs don’t have the time to do, but it’s what determines
their business success. Now that I have your attention….
“If
were on the Internet, he would come to me
for solutions…” ~ Viki
So, you need to know that I already know you.
You woke up one day knowing that there was something better for you, so you
gathered your resources and set out in your own business only to get so far and
1) run out of steam, 2) have it blow up in your face, and/or 3) have it run
over your life. But the “pilot light” of whatever woke up is still burning, so
you’re looking for answers.
And you’ve probably tried a lot of answers on your own as you’ve walked this
entrepreneurial path – worked it through on your own, listened to your beloved
advisors (who really don’t have the expertise to help you, as you’ve discovered
by now), bought the courses, attended the events, tapped every resource you
have to do it, and you NEED something to happen. That’s EXACTLY why I want to
work with you…
You have the heart, the courage, the
persistence and the fortitude to keep going, despite the pressure cooker you’re
living in from running your business and living your life. You are someone who
I admire, and who the world needs to experience through your business, whatever
stage of development you’re in and regardless of what it is, because if you
choose it from your authentic “pilot light”, it’s what you’re meant to do.
“You can view [running a business] as not
just a job but as an honorable livelihood where you can, by using your
imagination, develop the human spirit.” ~ Anita Roddick
Here’s the deal… while I specialize in innovating unique business
strategies for your business, there are four critical areas in which I focus on
making sure you have the basics that can make or break your business.

I’m all about making sure you have the nuts and bolts to running your
business in a way that optimizes your results. My goal is for you to
proactively evolve your business, which means that I meet you where you are
right now, understand where you want to go, and support you in getting there.
“If they don’t
fail outright, most businesses fail to fully achieve their potential. That’s
because the person who owns the business doesn’t truly know how to build a
company that works without him or her…
which is the key.” ~ Michael Gerber
“By quieting
ourselves down…removing ourselves from the noise around us, the fear inside us,
and the well-intentioned voices of others that would tell us what to do…we
receive the insight of our personal truth, which only we can truly know. And
that deep, quiet voice always is life supporting and always wealth
awakening.” ~ Dr.
Michael Norwood
Remember, the same energy that created a situation cannot
solve it. I would be honored to bring everything that the Business Buddha® has
to bear on your business situation – my goal is to help you evolve your
business proactively, quickly and easily!
“We are not
business people who have spirituality. We are spiritual people who do
business.” ~ Chris Widener

INTERNATIONAL JIVAKA
PRESUMPTIVE HEALTH PROTECTION (IJPHP)
As far as medicine is concerned the Buddha’s teaching as
preserved in the Pali Tipitaka is distinctly different that which proceeded it
and to a large extent even different from what came later. The medicines and
healing procedures in pre-Buddhist Indian literature is what can be called
religio-magical, i.e. prayers, mantra, spells and rituals. Likewise, many
sicknesses were believed to be caused by evil spirits. The Pali Tipitaka is the
earliest evidence of a departure from such notions, none of which are found in
it. Instead, we find the beginning of empirico-rational medicine. In the
Bhesajjakkhandaka of the Vinaya is a list of herbs, resins, salts and oils
which can be used as medicines. I will give some of these below. Now whether or
not such substances really did have healing properties, their mention without
any magical additions suggests a new type of thinking. Caraka Samhita
and Susruta Samhita, (dates uncertain but defiantly post-Buddha,
probably between 200 BCE and 300 CE) also contain a strong empirical and
experimental outlook but one can also see the either the inability to shake off
or perhaps the reintroduction of, magic. My favorite prescription in Caraka
starts, ‘Take the left ear of a donkey, boil it and…’ By the time the great
Mahayana sutras were composed religio-magical healing was well on the way to
completely replaced rational medicine. A good example of this would be the Bhaisajyarajan
Sutra (Medicine Buddha Scripture) which says, ‘May every being be cured of
deformity by hearing my name. May every ailing being too poor to afford
medicine be cured of their sickness by hearing my name. May all female beings
get rid of their femininity by hearing my name, etc.’ Worshiping the Medicine
Buddha, reciting his name and doing Medicine Buddha pujas had almost
completely superseded rational healing. Later Tantric text contains huge
amounts of healing dharanis, mantras and spells.

Big Red, Little Red and No-squeal
[Envy]
Once upon a time, there were two calves who
were part of a country household. At the same home there also lived a girl and
a baby pig. Since he hardly ever made a sound, the pig was called ‘No-squeal’.
The masters of the house treated No-squeal
very very well. They fed him large amounts of the very best rice, and even rice
porridge with rich brown sugar.
The two calves noticed this. They worked hard
pulling ploughs in the fields and bullock carts on the roads. Little Red said
to Big Red, “My big brother, in this household you and I do all the hard
work. We bring prosperity to the family. But they feed us only grass and hay.
The baby pig No-squeal does nothing to support the family. And yet they feed
him the finest and fanciest of foods. Why should he get such special
treatment?”
The wise elder brother said, “Oh young
one, it is dangerous to envy anybody. Therefore, do not envy the baby pig for
being fed such rich food. What he eats is really “the food of death”.
“There will soon be a marriage ceremony
for the daughter of the house, and little No-squeal will be the wedding feast!
That’s why he is being pampered and fed in such rich fashion.
“In a few days the guests will arrive.
Then this piglet will be dragged away by the legs, killed, and made into curry for
the feast.”
Sure enough, in a few days the wedding guests
arrived. The baby pig No-squeal was dragged away and killed. And just as Big
Red had said, he was cooked in various types of curries and devoured by the
guests.
Then Big Red said, “My dear young
brother, did you see what happened to baby No-squeal?” “Yes
brother,” replied Little Red, “now I understand.”
Big Red continued, “This is the result of
being fed such rich food. Our poor grass and hay are a hundred times better
than his rich porridge and sweet brown sugar. For our food brings no harm to
us, but instead promises long life!”
The moral is: Don’t envy the well-off, until you know the price
they pay.
