Caesar And Cell Phones - Weird Connections

N Arunkumar *

Alea iacta est! - The die is cast.
Julius Caesar

With every new technology come opportunities and disadvantages, perhaps in equal measure. The manner in which communication technology has grown in leaps and bounds over the past few decades was perhaps unimaginable at the beginning of the last century. However, at the beginning of this century, when we are fortunate enough to be much more advanced than the corresponding period of the previous era, we are looking forward to much more astonishing possibilities with optimism.

We are better placed today than back then to have the courage to trust that we will achieve every goal that we set for ourselves as humans on the planet. Knowledge bank is growing and of course, there are those who will use this knowledge positively as well as those who will do so negatively, which actually balances the positive and negative energies within the planet and manifests in the individual.

So, those who wish to use the knowledge positively will go ahead and do just that while those who are inclined to the negative energy will go ahead and use it in a hostile way as well. In this regard, it will be relevant to consider the enormous benefits brought about my mobile phones and the Internet communication today. These have positive and many negative impacts, perhaps unseen in a normal way.

Yet, the same are surely responsible for introducing health hazards that defy medical science to the limits as newer forms of after effects of radiation from these devices are coming to the surface. And then the whole knowledge collapses like a pack of cards on your face. The technology which was supposed to enlighten us and lighten our burdens of being connected to our essential life supports in terms of work and home have become demons that devour us from within in a restrained but explicit manner.

The whole idea of progress and victory over odds that had been ushered in with such technological marvels needs to be reworked now, so as to preserve life itself in its pristine beauty. The blanket of radiation that we have created over the planet by the use of magnetic waves flying thick and fast all over our heads is prompting strange behavioral patterns among us. Perhaps, the penchant for losing our tempers at a short provocation can also be traced to these invisible waves over our heads, and subsequently leading to stress of the most vicious kind on us.

These stresses in turn are creating the foundations for various ailments including cholesterol imbalance and diabetes. There seems to be strange things happening to us as we are now totally dependant on the wireless technology to face an ordinary days work and living. We wonder how our ancestors, not too long ago, managed to get things going without these gizmos that have essentially incapacitated us in a way.

Remember, not long ago again, our mothers used to deliver babies into this world without much medical intervention or violation of the natural process of birth. However, today a natural birth of a baby seems to be getting rarer, and all hospitals with birth wards and doctors are busy performing Caesarians to bring in new lives into the planet.

What has made this imperative for them to intrude into the birth process and induce this divine event by violating the laws of nature? Or, is there an angle of greed in this? Many private hospitals conveniently call their facilities as research centers, to immunize themselves from legal complications that could arise when things go awfully awry in their normal days work.

A research process means that they were actually trying to find out solutions to serious medically challenging situations, and it was done with the knowing consent of the participants, which translates to patients and their relatives. If at all they are dragged into any legal scuffles arising out of their experiments, they can insulate themselves behind this technical stipulation that will protect them from severe repercussions. Once again, the excuse of technological knowledge gathering will come to their rescue without a doubt.

Illness is indeed a multi million dollar industry today, and not everything about it is as spick and span as the corridors of sanitized hospitals around the world appear to us. Drug companies are not above board in this scheme of things. Man is an ingenious creature, endowed with tremendous potential to probe and arrive at solutions to challenging dilemmas of all kinds.

With millions of doctors and scientists working world wide on the ways and means to combat seemingly impossible diseases like AIDS and cancer, it is surprising how difficult he finds it to formulate minerals and salts to curb these killer monsters from among mankind. I know it will annoy a few big pharmaceutical cartels if someone blames them for keeping certain diseases alive and vibrant in order to continue their economic plunder in the name of these diseases which are nothing but monetary assets for them.

If they do come up with just the right drug to arrest an epidemic, they will be out of business in a few years down the line. Just like what happened to many of them when they first introduced vaccinations to kill certain diseases which were scourges in the past decades. Those diseases were eradicated, and the drug manufacturers went out of business too.

Once those diseases were contained, their vaccination production facilities were also ruined. What I am driving at is this; I suspect that we are being given some kinds of scientifically developed artificial goodies that are intended to have repercussions in the future. The never ending vicious circle of sicknesses can then be kept alive and the industry will also remain vigorous with guaranteed incomes forever.

There is nothing good in this world when it comes to ensuring material profits and likewise, sickness too is an industry ever since the moment Pandora opened the box in the Greek mythological version of causes of diseases in the world. The fairy Hope, which had emerged from the box of hideous diseases has failed to bring hope to all mankind though she has been benevolent to the industry, with due respects for anyone who is genuinely working towards eradicating the causes of such misery from among us.

Now, you might wonder about the connection between the beginning of this essay and the health sermonizing that I am indulging in. The connection is simply this that we are being introduced to various technologies today that are actually having tremendous health implications, many subtle and hidden, for us. We have to wake up to these hazards and realize that there are hidden dangers, even in technology that tends to make us lazy to the point of suicide unconsciously.

The controlled world is still keeping many secrets from us, which will help us to live peacefully with each other. The cardinal questions of free energy, free food, good shelter etc. which are the responsibilities of every elected government is denied to us, so that we can forever remain chained to the system of desires that will never be fulfilled.

We are to remain ignorant and angry with each other so that a mysterious order can work on us to make us slaves even though we fool ourselves of being a free people. The machinations of these powers are hidden behind many masks and it is difficult for us to tear off those masks as we are not enlightened about them. In that respect, democracy has failed in its dignified intentions, simply because it has become a form of slavery in a refined form.

Meanwhile, Caesarians will continue and also become more frequent while at the same time, mobile technology will gradually act as a gadget that will take away our remaining privacy to be free men. We are easily misled to believe that our freedom ensures a safer world for us. It is not so, come to think of it.

I will not be surprised if the mobile phones are used to induce certain types of harmful behavior amongst us by remote control by certain immoral powers who wish to enslave us. Beware of such dangers and identify them if you suspect something abnormal happening around you, as mind control is a scientific reality now. The die is cast, as Julius Caesar had said once long ago.

Seriously!
