Informed Consent For the Michigan Medicine AHEAD 3-45 Study Screening Procedures

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must reject the concept of Race and Ethnicity to describe Asian/Indian Identity

On Tuesday, December 05, 2023, I signed the Informed Consent Form for the AHEAD 3-45 Study Screening Procedures. Reference: UM eResearch ID: HUM00178622; NIA & Eisai Inc. / Protocol Number BAN2401-G000-303

I was informed about an Institutional Review Board (IRB) and was instructed to contact the Study Subject Adviser, Advarra IRB to report my concerns or complaints regarding this research study. I contacted Advarra IRB on December 28 to share my concerns about my exclusion from the study due to the problem of Selection Bias. The following is a copy of that communication sent to the Study Subject Adviser:

Dear Study Subject Adviser,

REFERENCE NUMBER: Pro00041484

As a research participant, I am investigating the problem of Selection Bias in the Selection Process used by the Research Investigator at University of Michigan.

I am informed that I am excluded from further participation in this Study and I want to verify the results of the blood and urine samples I provided on December 05, 2023 to ascertain the fact of my exclusion from the Study is consistent with the Research Protocol for which I have given my written consent.

In any case, I shall hold University of Michigan to its primary responsibility to share the lab test results for it has issued me a Medical Registration Number and informed me about this Hospital Appointment and provided me the assurance that the lab results will be shared with the patient.

Whole Dude – Whole Bias

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must reject the concept of Race and Ethnicity to describe Asian/Indian Identity

Selection bias refers to systematic differences between baseline characteristics of the groups that are compared. The unique strength of randomization is that, if successfully accomplished, it prevents selection bias in allocating interventions to participants.  Its success in this respect depends on fulfilling several interrelated processes.  A rule for allocating interventions to participants must be specified, based on some chance (random) process. We call this sequence generation. Furthermore, steps must be taken to secure strict implementation of that schedule of random assignments by preventing foreknowledge of the forthcoming allocations. This process if often termed allocation concealment, although could more accurately be described as allocation sequence concealment. Thus, one suitable method for assigning interventions would be to use a simple random (and therefore unpredictable) sequence, and to conceal the upcoming allocations from those involved in enrolment into the trial.

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must learn that there is no human race called Indian

Excerpt: The Michigan Medicine AHEAD study is examining the efficacy of a medication aimed at preventing Alzheimer’s Disease in individuals at increased risk of developing the disease. The study has, however, faced criticism regarding its focus on years of schooling and its lack of a research protocol to verify the identity and individuality of the human organism. Critics assert that biological processes like the flow of biological information and protein synthesis are not influenced by education level and that individuality should not be tied to factors such as race and ethnicity. The conceptualization of “life as knowledge in action” and that it is an interplay of cellular function and knowledge must be explored.

*Enrolling or withdrawing from a studyShould be discussed directly with the research staff.  The research staff contact information can be found on the first page of the consent form.

My reply to the automated response sent by Advarra Adviser (IRB):

Thanks for your email. My concern is about the research protocol for which the research scientist obtained my written consent. I am not asking you about the Consent Form Questions. I am asking you to verify the legitimacy of the Research Project to ask the Questions on the Consent Form. Firstly, the AHEAD Study did not disclose that the Study is constructed on the basis of creating a profile information of each research subject. Secondly, the Questions asked have no scientific validity; the information provided has no relevance to the study of this investigational drug. It seems that there is some other agenda is at work to use this research to gather information about research subjects without any concern for the randomization of the selection of research subjects. The Selection Bias is inherent in the Selection process for it is gathering information of its human subjects outsides the boundaries of the declared purpose of the Study.

The AHEAD Study is researching the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication in people who might be at increased risk for developing memory loss associated with Alzheimer’s Disease. The study is looking for participants age 55-80 years old, who have generally normal memory function in daily life, and who are not being treated for memory problems. For individuals age 55-64 years old, an additional risk factor is required, such as a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s Disease or previous biomarker testing showing increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s Disease. This study sees participants in Ann Arbor. Contact Lauren Mackenzie at spearsl@med.umich.edu or 734-232-2415.

On Tuesday, December 05, 2023, at the Michigan Clinical Research Unit (MCRU) at the Cardiovascular Center (CVC), I was interviewed for participating in the AHEAD Study and I completed the Stage 1A of the Screening process. I am asked to provide information about the most important occupation of my life, my sexual orientation, my race and ethnicity,  my place of birth and the country of origin, the total number of years I spent in the School to register my personal identity for participation in the Medical Research Project. The Research Protocol has not identified the basis for discovering the identity of a multicellular human organism. I can answer the questions I am asked. Do I have the ability to communicate my answers to the cells of my own body and reflect that identity in the living functions they perform to keep me alive?

Racial and Ethnic Differences in Plasma Biomarker Eligibility in a Preclinical Alzheimer’s Disease Trial

DOI:10.1002/alz.083020

Authors: Doris P. Molina-Henry, Rema Raman, Andy Lou, Oliver Langford and others, University of Southern California

Abstract:

Background: In Alzheimer’s disease (AD) trials, differential screen failure due to cognitive and biomarker requirements may contribute to underrepresentation of racially and ethnically minoritized groups. The AHEAD 3‐45 Study (NCT04468659) is an ongoing program testing lecanemab at the stage of preclinical AD that utilizes plasma biomarker prescreening, acquired before cognitive, clinical, and medical history eligibility assessments, to enrich for participants likely to qualify based on amyloid PET eligibility criteria. Methods: We examined the frequency of plasma amyloid biomarker eligibility among racial and ethnic groups in the AHEAD Study. We assigned participants ages 55‐80 to mutually exclusive groups: Hispanic Black (HB), Hispanic White (HW), Non‐Hispanic Asian (NHA), Non‐Hispanic Black (NHB), and Non‐Hispanic White (NHW). We used univariate logistic regression models to explore group differences in screen failure rates as determined by an algorithm that includes the plasma Aβ 42/40 ratio, age, and APOE status. The algorithm indicates an adequately high probability of elevated brain amyloid (>20 centiloids). We further explored whether APOE ε4 status (carrier vs non‐carrier) contributed to group differences. Results Among 4274 participants undergoing plasma screening, 59 (1.4%) were HB, 622 (14.6%) were HW, 74 (1.73%) were NHA, 329 (7.7%) were NHB, and 3190 (74.6%) were NHW. Screen failure rates were 86% for HB, 76% for HW; 80% for NHA; 77% for NHB, and 62% for NHW. Using NHW participants as a reference group, we observed increased odds of screen failure among all other groups (HB OR = 4.0 95% CI 2.0, 9.1; HW OR = 2.0 95% CI 1.6, 2.4; NHA OR = 2.5 95% CI 1.4, 4.5; NHB OR = 2.1, 95% CI 1.6, 2.7). Observed differences were consistent across APOE ε4 carriers and non‐carriers. Conclusion: Differential rates of amyloid eligibility were observed despite the lack of systematic sample bias due to clinical or cognitive requirements observed in previous studies. Potential explanations for these observations include differences in clinical trial access, incidences of elevated amyloid, needed cutoffs for biomarker assays, and confounding due to comorbidities or other unmeasured covariates. This work is supported by a public‐private partnership between Alzheimer’s Clinical Trial Consortium (U24 AG057437) and Eisai.

Disparities by Race and Ethnicity Among Adults Recruited for a Preclinical Alzheimer Disease Trial

Rema Raman, PhD1Yakeel T. Quiroz, PhD2,3Oliver Langford, MS1et al

Key Points

Question:  Are there racial/ethnic differences associated with recruitment sources and reasons for ineligibility among preclinical Alzheimer disease clinical trial participants?

Findings:  In this cross-sectional study of screening data for 5945 participants from a preclinical Alzheimer disease trial, Black, Hispanic, and Asian participants were recruited from local efforts compared with White participants who were recruited from more distributed efforts. Adjusted analysis showed that underrepresented racial/ethnic communities were more likely to be ineligible after the first screening visit.

Meaning:  These findings suggest that there are racial and ethnic disparities in preclinical AD clinical trial enrollment that will require a comprehensive approach to study design and recruitment strategies to minimize disproportionate enrollment.

Abstract

Importance:  Underrepresentation of many racial/ethnic groups in Alzheimer disease (AD) clinical trials limits generalizability of results and hinders opportunities to examine potential effect modification of candidate treatments.

Whole Dude – Whole Race : Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan reveal their ignorance of the term called Race. There is no Race of People called Indian.

Indira Gandhi – 25 Years after the Assassination of the Spirit of an Indian Army Officer:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. The Nation remembers its beloved leader 25 years after her assassination.

25 years ago, on October 31, 1984, Mrs. Indira Gandhi was brutally assassinated by her own bodyguards. The Nation has recently mourned her death and has also celebrated her 92nd Birth Anniversary.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: On September 18, 1983, a tiny flame got extinguished; a spirit got crushed at South Block, the Secretariat Building, New Delhi.

A year before her assassination, on September 18, 1983, Srimati. Indira Gandhi was unaware of the fact that a tiny flame got extinguished; a  spirit  got crushed at the Ministry of Defence Headquarters, South Block, the Secretariat Building in New Delhi. The Prime Minister’s office is also in the same building. I would like to share that story; the story about a young Medical Officer who joined the Army Medical Corps with a spirit to serve the Nation. The top bureaucrat of the Army Medical Corps chose to use his power and position to kill the spirit of this Junior Officer in broad daylight. The story begins and ends during the years Srimati. Indira Gandhi was the Prime Minister of India.

This story narrates events in the course of my life’s journey and it does not mean that it pertains to past. These events belong to the life of the Nation. The entity called Nation has a life and has an existence of its own. As long as this entity known to us as Bharat or India exists, this story remains relevant and it cannot be buried as the remains of an individual’s past life. As long as I am alive, I would keep my memory alive and I will ask the Nation to read pages from its own life.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life.THE NATIONAL SPIRIT – A TINY FLAME GOT EXTINGUISHED. This Flame represents the ‘National Spirit’ of a Junior Officer who was serving in the Indian Army Medical Corps.This Flame got extinguished not because of Enemy Action.

The top bureaucrats in 1983 were not able to grasp any ethical considerations. A sense of objectivity got lost and only the sense of self-preservation characterized the actions of top ranking officials. Srimati. Indira Gandhi paid a very heavy price because of the trust she had placed in some of these career opportunists who had no real interest in serving the Nation.

The Spirit of Indian Nationalism:

 Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. I grew up in the post-independence era of a newly born Nation and was inspired by the Father of the Nation to seek National Identity and National Individuality.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. I grew up as a kid drawing inspiration from India’s First Prime Minister to express my sense of loyalty and allegiance to a Nation called the Republic of Bharat or India.

On November 14, 1958, I was a student at Danavaipeta Municipal High School, Rajahmundry when we first celebrated the Children’s Day. The School had received a brand new Public Announcement System and I gave a very inspired and eloquent speech during the School Assembly and had expressed my love and a sense of attachment to Prime Minister Nehru. During 1962, Prime Minister Nehru visited Nizamabad District to inaugurate the irrigation project at Pochampadu on the banks of River Godavari. Government Giriraj Arts College, Nizamabad had declared a Holiday. Myself, my father R. Suryanarayana Murthy who was then the Principal of that college, many of Staff Members and students converged at that venue in show of our love and admiration for Prime Minister Nehru.

This story narrates events in the course of my life’s journey and it does not mean that it pertains to past. These events belong to the life of the Nation. The entity called Nation has a life and has an existence of its own. As long as this entity known to us as Bharat or India exists, this story remains relevant and it cannot be buried as the remains of an individual’s past life. As long as I am alive, I would keep my memory alive and I will ask the Nation to read pages from its own life. THE CHINESE AGGRESSION AND THE INDIAN ARMY’S DEFEAT IN 1962. I RECOGNIZED THAT INDIA MUST GET UNITED TO OPPOSE FOREIGN INVASION AND CONQUEST.

During 1962, in the wake of massive brutal attack by Communist China across the Himalayan frontier, I developed a wish to serve in the Indian Army which had experienced a very humiliating defeat. I was a student at Government Giriraj Arts College, Nizamabad. From 1962 to 1965, I had participated in the National Cadet Corps training, but I was not sure as to how I can to get into Army Service.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. On January 24, 1966, Indira Gandhi became the First Woman Prime Minister of India heralding the Dawn of a New Era in India’s National Life.

I was a second year M.B.B.S. (First M.B.B.S. Part III) student at Kurnool Medical College, Kurnool when Srimati. Indira Gandhi was chosen as the third Prime Minister of India. She had symbolized the spirit of Indian Nationalism. She had transcended the limitations imposed by deriving identity based upon region, religion, caste, and language. I was instantly attracted by the charisma of her personality which portrayed my vision of National Unity.

I sent her a letter in my hand writing expressing my sense of pleasure for her appointment as the Prime Minister. She had graciously sent me a reply. In the year 1967, I met her at her official residence in New Delhi along with a batch of Student Delegates attending a National Student Seminar on National Integration. This four-week long Seminar was sponsored by Vishwa Yuvak Kendra, International Youth Center, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life: The National Student Seminar on National Integration organized by Vishwa Yuvak Kendra during June 1967 gave me the opportunity to declare that Indian people must come together and foster National Unity based upon a sense of devotion to the Nation and must not get distracted by an Identity that could be derived from a sense of social affiliation or association that is related to a person’s attachment to a particular region, religion, language, and caste. I had advocated that men must seek marital social relationships based upon National Identity and not that of Caste Identity.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. Srimati. Indira Gandhi – A symbol of National Unity and a call for National Integration.

National Integration represents the idea of people of all regions and religions coming together, to work together, and to participate in National Affairs as equals. During 1969, a team of Army Medical Corps Officers had arrived at Kurnool Medical College, Kurnool to conduct interviews for selection of Final Year M.B.B.S. students for the grant of Short Service Regular Commission. Myself, and another student by name Ahmad Vali Jan got selected in the interview but he opted out. I was granted the rank of Second Lieutenant. I made this deliberate choice to join the Indian Army Medical Corps to serve the Nation and to take part in National Affairs to the fullest extent that could be possible.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life: The decision to serve in Indian Army Medical Corps was made at Kurnool and I was granted Short Service Regular Commission in the rank of Second Lieutenant after an interview conducted at the Principal’s Office in the Administrative Block of Kurnool Medical College. Dr. Bhasker Reddy, Principal conducted this interview along with a team of Army Medical Corps Medical Officers.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life: I will give the entire credit to Dr. Sripada Pinakapani, M.D., who served as Professor of Medicine and  the Superintendent of Kurnool Government General Hospital until his retirement during August 1968, for his initiative to Extinguish the Spirit of Nationalism that I displayed while I was a student at Kurnool Medical College. He opposed my idea of ignoring my Brahmin Caste Identity to formulate a marital social relationship based upon a National Identity. He influenced my paternal uncle, Dr. R. Anjaneyulu, M.D., D.G.O., Emeritus Professor of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, B.J. Medical College and Sassoon Hospitals, Pune and he directed him to use his social contacts with Senior Army Medical Corps Officials at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune to defeat my intention to have a marital relationship with a person who does not belong to the Brahmin Caste. This threat was communicated to me verbally and in a  personal letter that was sent to my father who was asked to deliver the threat to me. I had to relent and delayed my plans for marriage in a bid to avoid this confrontation. I was allowed to join the Indian Army during July 1970 after obtaining my M.B.B.S. degree with the expectation that I would not compromise my Brahmin Caste Identity.

On Saturday, July 26, 1970, I reported for duty at Officers Training School, Army Medical Corps Centre & School in Lucknow to attend the BMOC 20/70 Training Course. I completed my medical internship training in Military Hospital, Ambala Cantonment in July 1971 and was fully ready for my role as a Medical Officer to provide medical care and support to our troops. Indeed, the opportunity to serve the Nation came to be true to my desire and my expectations.

During 1971, I joined Special Frontier Force on deputation from Indian Army. I was sent to work at Headquarters Establishment No.22 and as my service was supervised by the Prime Minister’s Cabinet Secretariat, I got an opportunity to know and to carry out Srimati. Indira Gandhi’s decisions in furtherance of her Foreign Policy initiatives. During the conduct of India-Pakistan War of 1971, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi approved the military operations in the Chittagong Hill Tracts which initiated the Liberation of Bangladesh from Pakistani military dictatorship.

The Sweetest Moment of my Military Service:

The Sweetest Moment of my Military Career – I experienced a very Sweet moment called “MADHURYA” when I medically evacuated my battle casualties from the helipad at Borunasury (BONAPANSURIA), a Border Security Force Post in Mizo Hills after capturing the first enemy position during the 1971 War.

The Medical Directorate at the Indian Army Headquarters had failed to process the citation that was forwarded to them by my South Column Unit which took part in the Chittagong Hill Tracts military operation. I was recommended the Gallantry Award of ‘VIR CHAKRA’ and I was the only Officer in my Unit who had not received the Award for which the Unit had submitted a citation. However, I had enhanced the prestige of Army Medical Corps and for the first time in the history of the Army Medical Corps; I had performed the duties of a Medical officer, a Nursing Assistant, and an Ambulance Assistant while medically evacuating critically wounded soldiers; marching in a remote, roadless, forest terrain for over forty miles and I had maintained the patients in a stable condition throughout the difficult land journey. I was overjoyed by this uplifting experience. My patients had survived their battle injuries. I narrated this story to the Director General of Armed Forces Medical Services in an interview that was held in September 1972 at the Headquarters Ministry of Defence, New Delhi and I was granted Direct Permanent Commission in the Army Medical Corps just based upon the powerful story that I had narrated to the DGAFMS.

This Medal known as Sangram Medal symbolizes my transition from Short Service Commission to that of Direct Permanent Commission. President V.V. Giri under his signature granted me the Short Service Regular Commission. President Neelam Sanjiva Reddy signed and proclaimed the grant of Permanent Commission. I was connected to these two National Leaders from my early childhood days spent in Madras before the formation of the State of Andhra and later Andhra Pradesh.

The Proudest Moment of my Military Career:

“The Sentinel Hills that round us stand

Bear witness that we loved our Land;

Amidst shattered rocks and flaming Pine,

We fought and died on Namti Plain.

O’ Lohit gently by us glide,

Pale stars above us softly shine,

During 1962, Indian Army resisted the Chinese aggression and the men gave their lives defending Walong. During 1972, I had the good fortune to visit the War Memorial and filled up my heart with a sense of pride. There is Dignity and Honour in fighting for the Nation and in resisting the enemy. I received the 25th Independence Anniversary Medal during the 25th year of my life’s journey and I received the Medal as a Blessing. Pride is not defined by Victory or Defeat in the Battle. I display PRIDE in resisting the enemy and in defending my territory; victory and defeat are shaped by forces beyond my control.

I fully support India’s decision to test a nuclear device and defend our National interests, and our territorial integrity. During 1979, while taking part in a military exercise, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the test site at Pokhran in Rajasthan State.

The Unholy Brahmin Alliance in Pune: I was backstabbed at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune:

THE UNHOLY BRAHMIN ALLIANCE AT PUNE: I attended ‘The Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune from December 1975 to April 1976. At that time Major General B D P Rao was the Commandant of AFMC Pune. To my personal misfortune, the Dean, Faculty of Medicine, Pune University was also a Brahmin. The Unholy Brahmin Alliance buried my career in the Indian Army Medical Corps without giving any further chance to improve my professional qualification.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life: This is the photo image of the letter that was sent to Pune University communicating the fact of my disqualification (Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course) in a Screening Examination that was held at AFMC Pune during April, 1976. I am not blaming Lieutenant Colonel S P Kalra, the Chief of the Department of Paediatrics for this disqualification. He had disqualified me in one component of the Screening Examination, the Oral test he had given. He had no control or jurisdictional power over the results of the other two components (Written Examination and Practical Examination) of the Screening Examination. He had simply reacted to the rudeness displayed by the Dean, Faculty of Medicine, Pune University to a simple request that I had communicated to the Dean on behalf of Naval Army Medical Corps Officer Captain Sachdeva, the Professor of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, AFMC Pune.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Medical College Pune – The Unholy Brahmin Alliance at Pune : The Disgraceful, Dishonest, and Infamous Phone Conversation between two Brahmins of Pune recorded during April, 1976; 1. The Commandant of AFMC Pune, and 2. The Dean, Faculty of Medicine, Pune University, the Emeritus Professor of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, B. J. Medical College and Sassoon Hospitals Pune. I heard this Phone Conversation at my paternal Uncle’s Office in the Sassoon Hospitals. Both parties of this phone conversation had agreed to share lies about the results of the Screening Examination that was held at AFMC Pune during April 1976 and both had agreed not to further investigate the matter and ascertain the real facts about the assessment of my performance in the Written and Practical Components of this Screening Examination. Both the parties knew the reason for Lieutenant Colonel S P Kalra’s displeasure and had decided not to intervene and provide him with a reasonable response to a simple, verbal request that he had asked me to communicate to my Uncle, the Dean of Faculty of Medicine, Pune University.

Major General B D P Rao was the Commandant at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune while I attended the ‘Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course from December 1975 to April 1976. He had literally backstabbed me by falsifying my performance sheet and had lied about the results of my performance in the Screening Examination. Group Captain Krishnamurthy, the Additional Professor of Medicine who acted as the Chief Examiner for the Screening Examination had personally expressed his sense of utter remorse and he was shocked beyond belief that I was not allowed to continue my ‘Advanced Training in Paediatrics’ Course.  I was most unceremoniously got kicked out of Armed Forces Medical College, Pune and was posted out. Group Captain Krishnamurthy was not only satisfied with my performance, but also he had actually communicated the results of my performance to my paternal uncle (Dr. Rebbapragada. Anjaneyulu, M.D. Emeritus Professor of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, B.J. Medical College, and The Sassoon General Hospitals, Pune) who was then serving as the Dean, Faculty of Medicine, Pune University. In my presence, as I was closely listening to the phone conversation, my uncle had called Major General BDP Rao and had questioned him about his decision to disqualify me from the Advanced Training Course in Paediatrics. The General made a statement about my performance over the phone and stated that I had failed in the written examination, practical examination, and the oral test. Group Captain Krishnamurthy, the Additional Professor of Medicine who had actually evaluated my performance in the written examination, and had conducted my practical examination had directly admitted to me that there was no justification to disqualify me in those areas where he was responsible for the evaluation work. I was hurt, the wounds did not kill my spirit to continue in Service.  I did not demand a Court of Inquiry to prove the guilt of Major General BDP Rao who belonged to my South Indian Brahmin community. I have very specific reasons to call him a ‘BACKSTABBER’. Major General B D P Rao’s daughter (Captain Uma Ramachandran) had also attended the same Advanced Training Course in Paediatrics and she was present when Group Captain Krishnamurthy openly announced to the entire batch of AMC Officers claiming that I scored the highest marks in the Written part of the Screening Examination. Before this Screening Examination, while serving at the Military Hospital Wing of Headquarters Establishment no.22, I performed the duties of the Medical Specialist, and later also of the Surgical Specialist when these Specialist Officers availed their two months annual leave. When these Specialists proceed on casual leave, I used to provide cover at their respective departments. The Units where I served have immensely valued my professional service and the appreciation was duly recorded in my Annual Confidential Reports. Prior to the Screening Examination, the Department of Medicine conducted an Interim Test and I stood first in the entire batch of AMC Officers getting  trained by the Department of Medicine at AFMC, Pune.The results of this Interim Test were publicly announced in the class room by Major Kalipatnam Seshagiri Rao AMC, a Staff Member of the Department of Paediatrics. Captain Uma Ramachandran, was also present in the class room during this announcement. All this Record of Service and performance did not help me to receive a fair chance to complete my Advanced Training. General B.D.P.Rao may have never believed in serving the Nation and was a mere  career opportunist who got promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General . His departure from  Armed Forces Medical College, Pune  gave me an opportunity to show and to prove my academic merit. My failure in the Screening Examination and the Disqualification in the Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course 76 is entered into my Record of Service and hence this information is Private and is Confidential. However, Armed Forces Medical College, Pune chose to dishonour this Rule of Confidentiality and has openly communicated my Failure in the Screening Examination to The Registrar, University of Pune, Ganeshkhind, Pune-7  by sending him Letter No. 3410/Gen/76 dated 11 May 76. The Registrar, University of Pune has no Right to this Private and Confidential information about my Performance in a Training Program conducted by Indian Army. Armed Forces Medical College, Pune has acted in a reckless manner causing a Breach of my Privilege. I have not given permission to Armed Forces Medical College to disclose the information from my Record of Service. Hence, I would openly demand and ask the Government of India, Ministry of Defence to remove the information that pertains to the Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course 1976 from my Record of Service. Armed Forces Medical College, Pune must be suitably warned and be directed to avoid such violations in the future.

On 11 May 1976, Armed Forces Medical College, Pune has violated the Rights of Indian Army Medical Corps Commissioned Officers. Officers have the Rights to keep information in their Record of Service as Private and Confidential. I would openly demand Government of India, Ministry of Defence to exclude this information about my Performance in the Screening Examination from my Record of Service. Armed Forces Medical College, Pune must be warned and be directed to avoid such Violations in the future.

The Award of The Director General of Armed Forces Medical Services Silver Medal in 1976:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. I attended the Medical Officers Junior Command Course (MOJC) No. 67/76 at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune from June to September 1976.

I was posted to First Armoured Division after my disqualification in ‘The Advanced Training in Paediatrics’ Course in April 1976. In June 1976, I again went back to Armed Forces Medical College, Pune to attend the Medical Officers Junior Command Course (MOJC 67/76). Major General Daryao Singh was the Commandant at AFMC, Pune. He awarded me Grade ‘A’ for my performance in this Course. Later, Lieutenant General R.S. Hoon, the Director General of Armed Forces Medical Services invited me to come to Pune and receive the DGAFMS Silver Medal. I attended the Awards Function held at AFMC, Pune along with my wife and daughter and received this Silver Medal. My name as a recipient of the DGAFMS Medal in 1976 is displayed both at AFMC, Pune and at AMC Centre and School in Lucknow.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. THE DGAFMS MEDAL AWARDED BY ARMED FORCES MEDICAL COLLEGE, POONA
Apart from awarding this DGAFMS MEDAL in the Medical Officers Junior Command Course-67 held in 1976, The Commandant, the Professor of Medicine, the Professor of Pathology, and the Professor of Social & Preventive Medicine at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune gave a written recommendation that I should be allowed to undergo Training in Paediatrics. Based upon this strong written recommendation, I reapplied for Advanced Training in Paediatrics during 1977 and my application was rejected by Lieutenant General BDP Rao.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. 67 Medical Officers’ Junior Command Course Report from Armed Forces Medical College, Pune.
Major General Daryao Singh, AMC, Commandant of Armed Forces Medical College, AFMC Pune had strongly recommended my name on 11 October 1976 for attending Advanced Training in Paediatrics. Professor of Medicine, Professor of Surgery, Professor of Pathology, and Professor of Preventive Medicine had remarked that I would do well as a Specialist and had noted my interest in Paediatrics. They had personally interviewed me and had evaluated my performance during the MOJC Course.
I applied for Advanced Specialist Training in Paediatrics during 1977-79. My application was Strongly Recommended by all Reviewing Officers along the entire length of the Chain of Command. My application was rejected. On 22 October 1977, I submitted a Non-Statutory Complaint against this decision. On 8 December 1977, the Director of Medical Services, Army Headquarters had simply informed me that my Complaint was rejected. No reason was stated. I had no answer about my non-selection for the Specialist Training Course. While rejecting my Complaint, the Director of Medical Services (Army) also made a very surprising decision. The Director also disallowed MR-3363 Captain K VAIDYA from attending the Advanced Specialist Training in Pathology Course 1977-79 after selecting him for that Course. Captain K Vaidya’s name also appears in the letter dated 11 May 1976, the letter sent by Armed Forces Medical College, Pune to The Registrar, University of Pune informing that he had failed in the Screening Examination held in April 1976. I never wanted to harm Captain K Vaidya. The action to reject my Complaint was validated by disallowing Capt K Vaidya from attending the Pathology Training Course. Lieutenant General BDP Rao and Brigadier VVS Pratap Rao during 1977 conspired to exclude my name during the Selection process and obstructed me from attending the Training Course in Paediatrics and Captain K Vaidya became a victim of this Conspiracy.

The Political Eclipse and the Triumphant Return of Mrs. Indira Gandhi:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. The Political Eclipse and the Triumphant Return of Indira Gandhi.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. This Nine Years Long Service Medal was awarded to me after Indira Gandhi’s triumphant return to power in 1980 .

During my military service, Srimati. Indira Gandhi lost her political power for a period of three years from 1977 to 1980. From 1976 to December 1978 I served in First Armoured Division under the command of Major General K S Sundarji and have known his personal qualities as a military Commander.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. The ambition for promotions and the career oppotunism of this Military Commander may have played a role in the sad killing of Mrs. Indira Gandhi. She made a mistake in choosing him for execution of ‘Operation Blue Star’.

During December 1978, I was posted to Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad at the end of my tenure at First Armoured Division. I witnessed the tragic loss of Mrs. Padma Sundarji and shared my comments in a different blog post. While I was posted at First Armoured Division, I again tried to attend ‘The Advanced Training in Paediatrics Course’. Lieutenant General B.D.P. Rao, a fellow South Indian Brahmin continued to delight himself by denying me an opportunity to improve my professional qualification. I had filed a ‘Non-Statutory’ Complaint and it was rejected by the Chief of Army Staff based upon a recommendation given by the Director of Medical Services (Army) who had acted after consulting with the Director General of Armed Forces Medical Services about my Non-Statutory Complaint. I did not bring this problem to the attention of the Defence Minister and had silently endured this insulting and prejudicial conduct to keep my Spirit alive to Serve the Country.

Telugu People Value Self-Respect and Dignity:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: The Burning Spirit of Nationalism was instrumental in all the major decisions of my Life. N.T.R. Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao became the 10th Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh in January 1983.

I am not one of those Fan Club members. Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao was an advocate of the Cultural Identity of Telugu people and he had demanded the restoration of Self-Respect for Telugu people. I was amongst those people who had voted in favour of Telugu Desam Party which he created. My single vote did not put N.T.R. into the seat of power. My vote may have only symbolized a desire to take part in National Affairs while upholding the principle of Self-Respect and Personal Dignity. I was acutely aware of my own ill-treatment and I was deeply offended by the behaviour of the top bureaucrat of the Army Medical Corps. My applications for Study Leave were getting rejected without any reason.

A FLAME THAT GOT EXTINGUISHED AT SOUTH BLOCK, THE SECRETARIAT BUILDING, NEW DELHI:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: My first application dated January 17, 1983 to relinquish my Permanent Commission got rejected. While I was in New Delhi waiting to meet the Defence Minister, Lieutenant General Banerjee, the Director of Medical Services contacted me and had asked me to submit a fresh application. Fortunately, the Commandant of Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad was also camping in New Delhi to attend a meeting at this Secretariat Building.On September 17, 1983, on the front foot steps of this South Block Building facing Rajpath, the Commandant of Army Ordnance Corps Centre signed my application to relinquish my Permanent Commission in the Army Medical Corps. This application dated September 17, 1983 was directly submitted to the Director of Medical Services and was not processed through the normal Staff Channels. Next day on September 18, 1983, I had a personal interview with the Union Minister of State for Defence.

On January 17, 1983, while serving as the Senior Regimental Medical Officer at Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad, I submitted an application to Brigadier A M Bhattacharya, the Commandant of AOC Centre and sought his permission to relinquish my Permanent Commission in the Army Medical Corps. At that time, Lieutenant General V.V.S. Pratap Rao was the Director General of the Armed Forces Medical Services. General Rao had visited Military Hospital, Secunderabad during the 1982 AMC Day Celebration and had openly assured all the AMC Officers that he would support all Officers who would seek to relinquish their Commission. He did not view the job of AMC Officers in terms of a patriotic duty. I was personally frustrated as he would not allow me to improve my professional qualification and made me ineligible to seek any future Specialist Appointment in AMC. On the basis of his public assurance and his attitude about rendering Service to the Nation, I decided to quit this hopeless struggle of serving without any Self-Respect or Dignity. Meantime, AOC Centre had also received a transfer order that posted me to serve as a Medical Officer in a Medical Battalion, a Unit located in Mizoram. People at the AOC Centre who had known my Record of Service had immediately recognized that the posting order was issued to specifically undermine my ability to seek advancement in the military career and to deny an opportunity to give me substantial Service Experience. At its face value, the posting order intended to insult me for it shows no concern for my length of service and experience. The Commandant, AOC Centre, Secunderabad refused to serve me that unfair and unjust posting order and he did not ask me to move to the new station. AOC Centre, Secunderabad had simply refused to issue a ‘Movement Order’ and did not relieve me from my duties and responsibilities as the Senior Regimental Medical Officer. The Centre Commandant had very firmly insisted that the Medical Directorate must first decide on my application to leave army service. During 1983-84, Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad was my bastion of support and the Officers at the Centre united behind me and resisted the implementation of a transfer order which displayed all the characteristics of a foul play.

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Recommendation of Brigadier AM Bhattacharya, Commandant AOC Centre, Secunderabad dated 19 January 1983. During September 1983, he served as the Commander of Central Ordnance Depot, Delhi. He personally briefed Lieutenant General Banerjee, Director of Medical Services (Army) about my personal interview with the Defence Minister on 18 September 1983 and he made arrangements to deliver my second application dated 17 September, 1983 direct to DMS (Army) Office in New Delhi.

Service With Pride and Honour:                     

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Brigadier J Verghese, Commandant AOC Centre, Secunderabad was in New Delhi on 17 September 1983. He signed this document while standing in front of Ministry of Defence at South Block, the Secretariat Building in New Delhi.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Shri.Rebbapragada Ramananda Rao. He served as an Officer in the British Royal Navy and had Commanded British Naval Vessels during the Second World War and had taken part in Allied Forces Naval Operations in the Indian Ocean particularly attacking German submarines and escorting mercantile vessels from the Port of Aden to Bombay. He believed in Service with Pride, Dignity, and Honour. He helped me to resist the undignified behaviour displayed by General V.V.S. Pratap Rao, the Director General of Armed Forces Medical Services during the year 1983. He had written letters and spoke to the Union Cabinet Ministers and to the Member of Parliament to support my application to relinquish my Permanent Commission in the Army Medical Corps.

General V.V.S.Pratap Rao refused to grant me permission to relinquish my Permanent Commission and had started demanding AOC Centre to implement the posting order that was issued to me. I decided to bring this issue to the attention of the Union Minister of State for Defence. Before I could get a chance to seek a formal interview with the Defence Minister, General Rao submitted my application to the Defence Minister and recommended to him to reject my resignation application. My request to leave Army Service got rejected and AOC Centre was again asked to implement my posting order to  that Medical Battalion. In an effort to uphold my personal dignity, and with help and support of my uncle (Shri. Rebbapragada. Ramanand Rao, Industrial Consultant), I contacted Shri. Kotla Vijaya Bhaskar Reddy who was then the Union Cabinet Minister for Shipping and Transport, Shri. Pendekanti Venkata Subbaiah who was then the Union Minister of State for Home & Parliamentary Affairs, and Shri. R. Prabhu who was the Member of Parliament (7th Lok Sabha Member during 1983). All of them had strongly supported my view that I should demand to uphold my Self-Respect and personal dignity and asked me to oppose the illegal harassment that I was facing. Shri. Pendekanti Venkata Subbaiah had also personally demanded General V.V.S. Pratap Rao to cancel the posting order that was issued. General Rao asked Lieutenant General Banerjee who was the Director of Medical Services (Army) during 1983 to cancel the posting order issued to me and at the same time he insisted that I should be reposted to the same Station in Mizoram but in a different capacity. The Director of Medical Services was not allowed to deal with my situation in any other manner. I was then posted to the Border Roads Organisation Task Force (CE Project Pushpak) located in Mizoram. Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad had again refused to issue a ‘Movement Order’ in compliance with this new posting order. The Director of Medical Services  had openly expressed his remorse about this interference in his duties and responsibilities and communicated his feelings to Brigadier A M Bhattacharya. Then, I decided to travel to New Delhi and speak directly to the Defence Minister about my application that I submitted on January 17, 1983. Shri. Kamakhya Prasad Singh Deo was the Union Minister of State for Defence. Shri. Singh Deo’s younger brother was serving as the Adjutant at 125 Infantry Battalion (Territorial Army) located at Trimulgherry, Secunderabad. This Territorial Army Unit was attached to the Medical Inspection Room of Army Ordnance Corps Centre, Secunderabad. As the Medical Officer of this Territorial Army Unit I had provided them medical support and Lieutenant Colonel Ranjit S Grewal, the Commanding Officer of the Unit was very pleased with my services. Shri. Singh Deo’s younger brother helped me to plan my visit to New Delhi.  

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: My personal interview with Shri.Kamakhya Prasad Singh Deo, Union Minister of State for Defence took place on September 18, 1983 in his office at Ministry of Defence, New Delhi. The Minister’s younger brother was serving as Adjutant at 125 Infantry Battalion (TA) in Secunderabad. This letter was issued to me by Lt Col Ranjit S Grewal, Commanding Officer, 125 Infantry Battalion (TA) on February 27, 1983 several months before my personal interview with the Defence Minister.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Shri.Kotla Vijaya Bhaskara Reddy, the Union Cabinet Minister for Shipping and Transport had arranged for my personal interview with the Union Minister of State for Defence on September 18, 1983.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Shri.Pendekanti Venkata Subbaiah, the Union Minister of State for Home and Parliamentary Affairs arranged for my personal interview with the Union Minister of State for Defence on September 18, 1983.
Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Shri.PRABHU, R, the Member of 7th Lok Sabha spoke to Shri. K P Singh Deo, the Union Minister of State for Defence in support of my application to relinquish Permanent Commission.

The Assassination of the ‘Spirit’ of Indian Army Medical Corps Officer:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: Shri. K P Singh Deo, the Union Minister of State for Defence granted me a personal interview in his office on September 18, 1983 setting aside the Service Protocol.

My personal interview with Shri. K P Singh Deo was very frank and I made my case very clear. He did not suggest to me that I should continue to serve in the Army with a sense of patriotism. He did not speak about any National Spirit or Nationalism. He did not say a word to justify the actions of General V.V.S. Pratap Rao. Prior to this interview on September 18, 1983, Shri Singh Deo had specifically directed General V.V.S Pratap Rao to change the rules that had made me ineligible to seek Study Leave, and to seek Specialist Appointments. General Rao did not act upon the ruling in spite of very clear and specific instructions given by the Minister. General Rao had kept that ruling as a secret and did not communicate the orders issued by the Defence Minister to the Director of Medical Services. At the time of my personal interview, the Defence Minister was not aware of the fact that General Rao had deliberately concealed information that pertains to my application. General Rao had apparently desired to keep both of us in darkness at the time of this interview. I went to the interview with the assumption that the Defence Minister had failed to act upon my application. Shri. Singh Deo met me under the assumption that he had already taken action to resolve my concerns about Study Leave and Specialist Appointments and my professional growth in the Army Medical Corps. The Defence Minister may have believed that I have other personal reasons for relinquishing the Commission. I did not state any personal reasons in my first application but  I illustrated some of them in my second application dated September 17, 1983 and I had emphasized the fact that I want to serve with a sense of Pride and Honour and uphold the principles of Service Discipline. I joined the Army Medical Corps as a Final Year M.B.B.S. student with a spirit to serve the Nation and to participate in National Affairs with a sense of Pride and Self-Respect. It was not my intention to support myself or my family without upholding my dignity to wear Uniform and serve with a sense of Honour. The Minister accepted my request and I was granted the permission to relinquish my Permanent Commission and I was relieved of my duties on January 10, 1984 and I had lost no time and left Secunderabad immediately and departed from India. General V.V.S.Pratap Rao could not move me to Mizo Hills and I served at AOC Centre, Secunderabad until the morning of January 10, 1984. All of my statements could be verified from documents that are archived at Medical Personnel Records Section (Officers), Headquarters  Ministry of Defence, New Delhi.

The Assassination of the Prime Minister:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: I received the tragic story of assassination of the Prime Minister while I was working in the Land Forces of Sultanate of Oman.

Srimati. Indira Gandhi had unfortunately trusted her top bureaucrats. I had known the personal qualities of Lieutenant General T S Oberoi who was serving as the General Officer  Commanding- in – Chief at Headquarters Southern Command, Pune during 1983. General Oberoi had also served as the Inspector General of Special Frontier Force after sucessfully Commanding the troops during the Indo-Pak War of 1971 in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The Operation Blue Star had involved the participation of Commandos of the Special Frontier Force. General T S Oberoi had deeply cared for his men under his Command. He would have executed that kind of difficult military mission with due care and concern for his men and also the civilians. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had failed to seek guidance from Lieutenant General T S Oberoi about the execution of Operation Blue Star. She did a mistake in not showing adequate trust and confidence in a senior Army Commander. Sikh Officers serving in Indian Armed Forces are members of  a National Service and we take pride in serving the Nation. During my service,  I have not seen any Sikh Officer or other rank displaying a clan mentality or a sectarian attitude.

This is a picture taken at Headquarters ‘D’ Sector, C/O 99 APO during 1972 before I had appeared in the AMC Examination of 1972 for the grant of Direct Permanent Commission in Army Medical Corps. At that time, I was serving in Assam and North East Frontier Agency(Arunachal Pradesh).This photo symbolizes National Unity. We are all partners in defending our Nation. Sikh Officers of Indian Armed Forces treated me with Love, Affection, and Respect. The ‘FLAME’, the Spirit to serve the Nation got Extinguished by a person who belonged to my clan and my Telugu Speaking, South Indian Brahmin Community.
Lt Gen T S Oberoi is seen wearing helmet in a picture taken in 1982. As Commander of Headquarters Establishment No. 22, he had served the Nation with great distinction during Indo-Pak War of 1971. He was promoted to the rank of Major General. He then replaced Major General Sujan Singh Uban,AVSM and became the Inspector General of Special Frontier Force while I had served there. I knew him well. As a Commander he had belonged to the men he had Commanded. He does not belong to a ‘sect’ or a ‘clan’. He belongs to the Nation. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi made a fatal mistake. If she had reposed her trust and confidence in General Tirat Singh Oberoi, the Story of Operation ‘Blue Star’ would have been different.
Indira Gandhi – A Flame that got Extinguished : The Spirit of Nationalism that I have nurtured as a student at Kurnool Medical College got extinguished during January 1984 and I had left India. The same year, Dr. Sripada Pinakapani, M.D. who had directly opposed my desire to serve the Nation received the award of PADMA BHUSHAN from India’s President Zail Singh.

The Flame got Extinguished – The Heart has given place to Lord Rama:

Whole Dude – Whole Flame: After departing from India in 1984, my heart is now filled with the image of Lord Rama to guide me in my life’s journey.

After leaving India in 1984, I could not get a chance to revisit the country. Now, I continue my life’s journey with a new spirit guided by the image of Lord Rama.

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality. Honoring our fallen soldiers. The War Memorial in Walong, Arunachal Pradesh
Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality. I arrived at Dum Duma (Doom Dooma) Airfield, Assam in 1972 after the successful conclusion of Operation Eagle, the military action in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh.
Whole Dude – Whole Guest: I had the wonderful opportunity to serve in the North East Frontier Agency (NEFA) during 1972-73, after Indian Army’s victory in Bangladesh. I camped in Walong visiting troops.
Whole Dude – Whole Guest: A view from a hill top near Walong, Arunachal Pradesh.
Whole Dude – Whole Guest: During the 1962 Chinese aggression Indian Army valiantly resisted the enemy’s attack in a historical battle at Namti Plains, near Walong, Arunachal Pradesh.
Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Suspension bridge across Lohit River near Chigwinti, Arunachal Pradesh.

This entry is dedicated to the memory of those brave men who gave their precious lives fighting the massive Chinese aggression in 1962. I experienced the traditional Indian hospitality at a forward Company location in Arunachal Pradesh (North East Frontier Agency) and my memories are fresh after a lapse of over 50 years and the reason is that I still feel the same passion to serve our men who fight for our country.    

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality. A view of Lohit River at Walong, Anjaw District.

In 1962 while the Chinese attacked India, I was a first year student studying for a Bachelor of Science degree (3- Year Bachelor’s Degree Course) at Government Giriraj Arts College, Nizamabad, Andhra Pradesh. India was taken aback by this unprovoked and unexpected invasion across the Himalayan Frontier. There was a spontaneous reaction from people across our nation. Nizamabad was no exception and the Giriraj students took out a procession to condemn the enemy. I was not a student leader but I was the son of the Principal of the College. That placed me in the very first row of students who led the procession. At that time, I did not visualize myself that I would be wearing the Olive Green Indian Army Uniform.

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Special Frontier Force – Lohit River: “WALONG WILL NEVER FALL AGAIN.”

By year 1972, I completed two years of service in Indian Army and the great moment in my life arrived when I stood before the War Memorial in WALONG. The following verses were inscribed on it:    

The sentinel hills that round us stand    

bear witness that we loved our land.    

Amidst shattered rocks and flaming pine    

We fought and died on Namti Plain.    

 O Lohit, gently by us glide    

pale stars above us softly shine    

as we sleep here in sun and rain.    

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality.

Let us keep our collective memory afresh and pay tribute to these loyal sons of our land.    

The Tradition of Hospitality in India:    

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality.

Hospitality is a fairly popular tradition for a variety of cultures across our globe. In India the tradition was well established a long time ago and we elevated it to a degree which may not be seen anywhere else in this world. The Vedic statement ” Athiti Devo Bhava ” is a thought that finds its expression only in our Land. The word ‘Athiti’ defines the guest as a person who could show up at your home without a prior notice or formal invitation and on a day and at a time of his own choice.

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: The Indian tradition of Hospitality.

Our literature is full of stories about this great tradition of hospitality and the episode described in the story of MAHA BHARATA shows the importance of preserving this tradition. Princess Draupadi was overwhelmed by the arrival of a large number of guests , while she and the Pandava Princes lost their kingdom and were living in the forest. She did not want to fail in her duty of being a good hostess. She was desperate and she met this challenge by earnestly praying to Lord Krishna. Upholding the principle of hospitality is very important to Lord Krishna and He gracefully provided the help Draupadi needed to serve her guests in accordance with our Dharma (Right Conduct). Her adherence to the tradition of hospitality truly defines the Indian Identity.    

Most of you would have experienced some act of hospitality or the other and I want to narrate a simple act of hospitality that I experienced at CHINGAWANTY ( or CHIGWINTI ) in Arunachal Pradesh and would take this opportunity to speak of my memorable experience at this forward Company location and describe this as our Indian Identity.    

The Tradition of Hospitality at Chingawanty (CHIGWINTI ):    

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality

The Company Commander Major.G B Valenkar was the recipient of VIR CHAKRA award for his role in Operation Eagle, the military action that initiated the Liberation of Bangladesh in 1971 with attacks on the enemy posts in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. During Operation Eagle, we had worked together in the South Column Unit under the Command of Lieutenant Colonel B K Narayan.

Major Valenkar briefed me about the traditional hospitality of the men of his Company. Before the dinner was served, he told me that the men would continue to serve food till such time I announce that I am fully satiated and that I need no further servings. Then, they would bring one more final serving to ensure that I am truly satiated and well fed. I wanted to test the men and find out for myself their devotion to their hospitality tradition. After dinner was announced, I mentioned my preference for bread.

Whole Dude – Whole Guest: Defining Indian Identity – The Tradition of Hospitality.

Instead of ‘chapatis’, I told the men hosting my dinner, that I would like to be served with poori (soft, fluffy, deep-fried Indian Bread) to go with my meal. The dishes were served piping hot and the fried poori were made one after the other and a fresh serving would arrive just before I would finish the previous serving. The food was delicious and the mountain weather was cool and refreshing and I was young and had a healthy appetite.  I continued eating while having a pleasant conversation with Major.Valenkar and after several servings, the man stood before me respectfully and asked me to grant him some additional time before he could bring forth the next serving. He mentioned that the cook had run out of the dough he had prepared for the evening meal. I responded saying that I really need no further servings and asked him not to bother about preparing more dough. The man submitted that it would not be fair on my part to stop him at that juncture and stated that I could only stop him from serving only at a time when he is able to provide more servings. In the Indian Hospitality tradition, the guest is also expected to give his host a reasonable opportunity to fulfill his obligation and the host has also a right to derive a sense of satisfaction by observing the rules of hospitality. I had to concede and in a little while, he resumed his service. After eating to my heart’s content, I told him that I am really satiated. He agreed to bring in the final serving and he passed in the test and he did not give up until he made sure that I am fed till such time that I am fully fed.    

I am speaking of this hearty meal to just give you a chance to taste the passion that keeps us united and we relish the opportunity to serve our Land and defend its traditions of Valor and Hospitality.

Seva comes from the Sanskrit root sev-, “to serve”, and is a central concept in both contemporary Hinduism and Sikhism. In Hinduism, seva means selfless service and is often associated with karma yoga, disciplined action, and bhakti yoga, disciplined devotion.

Sainya Seva Medal. Service Award without Service Weapon.

SAINYA  SEVA MEDAL

The Government of India awards Sainya Seva  Medal to Service Personnel serving in Indian Armed Forces in recognition of ‘non-operational’ services under conditions of special hardship and severe climate. The bar or clasp shows the words ” NEFA ” in Hindi. To qualify for this award, an aggregate of one- year service in the North-East Frontier Agency (NEFA) is required. The Medal shows an image of Nanda Devi Himalayan mountain peak with a bamboo stand in the foreground.

REMEMBERING A WAR:THE 1962 INDIA-CHINA WAR: This is a photo image taken in 1972, ten years after the 1962 War, while I had proudly served the Nation in North East Frontier Agency. There was no schism or division among the Officers Corps. The Men and the Officers were totally united and were fully motivated to fight the Enemy and we had patrolled the border along the McMahon Line and went beyond the border for Operational reasons. There was no Fear and we were Prepared for the Challenge.

I am proud of my military service in North East Frontier Agency (renamed Arunachal Pradesh) for several reasons. These are;

Special Frontier Force – Sainya Seva Medal – Service Award without Service Weapon

In 1962, Communist China’s War of  Aggression across Himalayan Frontier motivated me to Resist, to Oppose and to Fight against Red China’s military threat posed from Occupied Tibet. 54 Years after the 1962 War, India is unwilling to part with her territory. India lost control of her territory in the Ladakh region as Tibet still remains under Chinese occupation.

REMEMBERING THE 1962 INDIA – CHINA WAR: The McMahon Line in India’s North East Frontier Agency or the State of Arunachal Pradesh. The Top Secret of 1962 War is the number of Chinese soldiers that were killed and injured during their military attack. Communist China must take courage and admit the true numbers. This War was not a total loss. India learned its lesson. We had a spectacular Military Victory in 1971 during our Bangladesh Liberation War.

Fortunately, in the North-East Himalayan Sector, India retains control over territory which we initially lost in the 1962 War. In 1972, I was very glad to serve in this area for one complete year and I could personally witness the fact that India is fully prepared to fight against Red China one more time. We are willing to do our best to keep ‘NEFA’ (Arunachal Pradesh) under our control whatever may be the Chinese threats protests, and claims to territory she calls “Southern Tibet.” China, apart from the illegal military occupation of Tibet, claims Indian territory publishing maps showing international borders. In recent years, China refused to issue a visa to an Officer of the Indian Administrative Service who had earlier served in this region.

Special Frontier Force – Sainya Seva Medal – Service Award without Service Weapon

The tensions still exist and I am glad for we are better prepared now and if war is inevitable, we welcome that challenge. To serve in NEFA, I was stationed at Doom Dooma, Tinsukia District, Assam. When I first arrived in Doom Dooma to join my Unit, the first thing that I was told by my Unit Adjutant was, ” Rudra, if you need a copy of your most recent photo, ask the Chinese Intelligence, and they could provide you one.” The Chinese Intelligence operatives or spies keep tabs on each Officer who is entering this area while keeping a close watch on our movements.

We are neither threatened nor intimidated by this kind of Chinese surveillance. We want to assure China that we will not be deterred by their superior Intelligence capabilities.

I arrived in Doom Dooma without my Service Weapon issued by Indian Army as I am expected to participate in operations not known to Indian Army.

My Unit in Doom Dooma is fully armed and equipped by the United States. While I arrived in Doom Dooma, US President Richard M. Nixon arrived in Peking seeking Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong’s hand in friendship.

I was not amused. I had no choice, no alternative for providing Military Service using the US Infantry Weapon for my personal protection. At Doom Dooma, I am predestined to oppose Red China without access to any Service Weapon. I moved around in NEFA performing military tasks sanctioned by my Unit without carrying any Military Weapon.

Indian Army’s Commitment to its Men:

Whole Dude – Whole Seva: In my analysis, the Service in Uniform is truly about Serving the Men who Defend our Nation with utmost Loyalty.

In the Indian Army, we take pride in looking after our men and very often we stretch ourselves to do our best to safeguard the welfare of our men even under the most difficult circumstances. And we maintain this attitude while extending help to others who may not be members of our Service.

I remember my visit to a Forward Company location when a Sub-Inspector of Police came to me asking for medical attention. He belonged to the Central Reserve Protection Force and was dispatched to this difficult area without any prior health screening. I will not be surprised if the same thing is happening today. We deploy police personnel to work in remote areas and we do not care and value their services. This Police Officer was not medically fit to serve in this area and no attempt was made to ascertain his physical fitness to perform the task for which he was sent. Fortunately, he survived the long trek and the very difficult and physically challenging climb to reach the Village where I am camping. The Village has a Government Clinic and as there was no Doctor posted at the Clinic, I was voluntarily providing services to all civilians residing in that area.

I examined him and found his blood pressure to be very high and he was at great risk of suffering from a stroke which could be fatal or cause paralysis. Apparently, he had undiagnosed high blood pressure for a long time and I could also find evidence that his kidneys were already damaged. To bring his blood pressure under control, he needed immediate hospital treatment and required emergency medical evacuation.

His Police Department never cared to inquire about his well-being before giving him the posting order. Whereas in the Armed Forces, we routinely interview the men and get them medically examined before they are sent to difficult areas.

I prepared a note about his medical condition and the Signal Company Operators immediately dispatched this message. Within minutes, my request for Emergency Medical Evacuation was approved. Doom Dooma Air Force Station was asked to send a helicopter. After a short while, I received a call from the helicopter pilot who spoke to me on his radio and informed me that he was sitting in his helicopter and was ready to take off as soon as the weather permits. That was a particularly, rainy and cloudy day with very poor visibility and the mission was really challenging. The pilot had assured me that he would fly in spite of all odds and would pick up my patient. The control tower was closely monitoring the clouds and they were waiting for a window of opportunity to make this trip while the cloud system moves through the mountain valley. He had asked me to keep the patient ready at the helipad and that he would not be able to spend even an extra minute on the ground.

Instantly, the whole scenario at my Company location got transformed. The day started on a very dull note. It was raining and there was dense fog. Suddenly, everybody got busy. As per standing orders, armed men were sent to secure our landing strip, weather signs were posted, the helipad was marked with fresh paint. Equipment for Fire-Fighting and Smoke Signaling were positioned on the ground. We erected a small shelter for the patient to rest while awaiting evacuation. A Sub-Inspector of Police suddenly became the focus of attention literally transforming him into a ‘VIP’ or Very Important Person. He was worried about his senior officers who dispatched him to this station. He was concerned that he might offend them by leaving his duty station without their prior permission. I reassured him and told him that the Indian Army would accept total responsibility for sending him to the hospital. I informed him that we value him and care for his well-being and that we would not expect any person to perform duty when their personal health is at risk. 

The pilot made the bold trip as promised and safely transported him to Service Hospital at Air Force Station, Jorhat. The Sub-Inspector of Police told me that he would never forget this particular day of his life on which he could directly experience the sense of urgency with which we acted and treated him as if he is the most precious thing on earth.

I love the Service Award I earned at Doom Dooma without using any Service Weapon. I love Doom Dooma for the opportunity it gave to me to demonstrate my commitment to serve the men who serve our country without any concern for my personal safety.

Whole Dude – Whole Esprit de corps

Esprit de corps is a feeling of loyalty and pride that is shared by the members of a group who consider themselves to be different from other people in some special way. In my analysis, the Seva or the Service in Uniform is truly about Serving the Men who Defend our Nation with utmost Loyalty. My Devotion to Duty is purely reflected in my Devotion to Serve my Comrades.

Whole Dude – Whole Bharatiya

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must reject the concept of Race and Ethnicity to describe Asian/Indian Identity

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must learn that there is no human race called Indian

University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine must avoid the social and political constructs of Race and Ethnicity. How does the multicellular human organism verifies its own Identity?

Excerpt: The Michigan Medicine AHEAD study is examining the efficacy of a medication aimed at preventing Alzheimer’s Disease in individuals at increased risk of developing the disease. The study has, however, faced criticism regarding its focus on years of schooling and its lack of a research protocol to verify the identity and individuality of the human organism. Critics assert that biological processes like the flow of biological information and protein synthesis are not influenced by education level and that individuality should not be tied to factors such as race and ethnicity. The conceptualization of “life as knowledge in action” and that it is an interplay of cellular function and knowledge must be explored.

Whole Dude – Whole Race : Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan reveal their ignorance of the term called Race. There is no Race of People called Indian. However, several Indians, Iranians and Germans celebrate their Aryan Race heritage. I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man

On Tuesday, December 05, 2023, at the Michigan Clinical Research Unit (MCRU) at the Cardiovascular Center (CVC), I was interviewed for participating in the AHEAD Study and I completed the Stage 1A of the Screening process. I am asked to provide information about the most important occupation of my life, my sexual orientation, my race and ethnicity, my place of birth and the country of origin, the total number of years I spent in the School to register my personal identity for participation in the Medical Research Project.

Whole Dude – Whole Race: Michigan Medicine asks, “What is your Race?” There is no human race called Indian. I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man.

The AHEAD Study Research Protocol has not identified the basis for discovering the identity of a multicellular human organism. I can answer the questions I am asked. Do I have the ability to communicate my answers to the cells of my own body and reflect that identity in the living functions they perform to keep me alive?

Defining Indian Identity-The Doctrine of Individualism

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Excerpt: In the Indian Tradition, the true or real identity of man is unrelated to the features of his morphological appearance which is subject to changes under the influence of time. These morphological traits are unreal and the real or true man always exists as a Specific Individual with unchanging Individuality and is associated with the vital, animating principle called Soul. The human Soul is capable of transmigrating across all known human races and ethnicities.

What is Individualism?

The word individual is derived from Latin, ‘Individualis’-that which is not divided-an individual. Individualism can be defined as follows:1. a belief that stresses the primary importance and worth of each person and in the virtues of self-reliance and personal independence, 2. the principle or practice of maintaining individuality or independence of the individual, 3. the principle or habit of or belief in independent thought or action, 4. the conception that all values, rights and duties originate in individuals, 5. a doctrine that the interests of the individual are or ought to be ethically paramount, and 6. the pursuit of individual rather than common or collective interests. The doctrine of Individualism may support a view that the interests of the individual should take precedence over the interests of the State or Social Group.

Defining Indian Identity – The Doctrine of Individualism: THREE GREAT TEACHERS OF INDIA: IN SHANKARA’S ANALYSIS, MAN IS NOT SAVED BY ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE. MAN CANNOT DIRECTLY RULE OR GOVERN HIS OWN BODY FOR THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF LIFE OR CELLS ARE INDEPENDENT AND ENJOY CELLULAR AUTONOMY.
Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Indian Culture views human existence in absolute individualistic terms and the legacy of Indian Culture could be described as ‘Individualism’.

The Foundation for Individualism:

Bhagavad Gita - Individualism
Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.
Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter II, Sankhya Yoga, verse 39, claims that the analytical knowledge derived from Samkhya philosophy gives the description of the nature of individual and individuality.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Chapter II, of the Bhagavad Gita explains this philosophy in several verses.Verse 11 claims that those who are wise lament neither for the living nor the dead.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

In verse 12, Lord Krishna states that there was never a time when He did not exist, nor Arjuna, nor all others in the battle field, and in the future there will never be a time when any of them cease to exist. Lord Krishna (The Supreme Individual Person) and also all other individuals are eternal persons.They existed as individuals in the past and they will continue to exist as individuals in the future.Their individuality existed in the past and their individuality will continue in the future without interruption. Lord Krishna clearly states that the individuality of all others will continue eternally. Hence, Indians do not accept the bodily conception of the living entities. Living entity is an individual soul and even though the body changes every moment, the soul does not undergo any change.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Verse 13, claims that the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth, and then to old age; similarly, the soul also passes into another body at death. By nature the human body is ever changing, and the soul is eternal.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Verse 24 states that this individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble. He is everlasting, unchangeable, immovable, and eternally the same.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Finally, verse 27 establishes the foundation for ‘Individualism’ by stressing that ” For one who has taken his birth,death is certain; and for one who is dead, birth is certain.”

The Supremacy of Individual:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

The primary importance of the individual is established by the Vedic statement “AHAM BRAHMASMI” which describes the True Identity of the Individual as that of Ultimate Reality known as Brahman. The following verse supports the idea that the Individual is a Whole entity as the Whole is derived from the Whole, perfect, Supreme Being:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Om, purna mada, purna midam, purnaat purna mudachyate

Purnasya purna maadaya, purna meva vasishtyate.

“That” (is an indefinite term to designate the Invisible Absolute) is Whole (Perfect Substance with Perfect Nature and Quality); “This” (the visible, the phenomenal embodied Soul) is Whole, from the (invisible) Whole comes forth the (visible) Whole. Though the visible Whole is derived or deducted from that invisible Whole, yet the Whole remains unaltered and both retain their Perfect Condition called Whole. The human entity is virtually trapped in a repeated cycle of birth, death and rebirth.The ultimate purpose of human existence is to achieve Moksha (Liberation) or Mukti (Release) from this Cycle that is referred to as ‘Samsara’.

The Practice of Individualism:

Defining Indian Identity – The Doctrine of Individualism: The illumination of Intellect -Gayatri Maha Mantra

Individualism is built upon the value attached to knowing oneself. We are encouraged to look inwards and to reflect upon the nature of ‘SELF’. Self-Knowledge is considered to be more valuable than gaining knowledge of the material world.The following prayer which is known as Gayatri Mantra is one such example of motivating Individuals to look inwards. Similarly, Socrates suggests, “Know thyself, and you will know the universe and the gods.”

 Om Bhur Bhuva Suvah, Om tatsa vitur vareynyam

Bhargo Devasya dhee mahi dheeyo yo nah prachodayaat.

The Individual while firmly establishing his Individuality also takes complete responsibility for his actions.The Individual bears the burden for his own actions.

The Journey to Ultimate Individualism:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

The Individual strives for self-reliance, learns to minimize the importance of all external relationships and concentrates upon developing an intimate relationship with his personal God.The following prayer is one such example of an Individual’s journey on the path of devotion (Bhakti).

Tva meva maata cha pitaa tva meva, Tva meva bandhu cha sakha tva meva,

Tva meva vidya, dravinam tva meva, Tva meva sarvam mama Deva Deva.

Devotion to God practically takes over, replaces and consumes the need for any other kind of external relationship such as man’s relationship to his mother, father, relatives, friends, and educational and material status.

The Goal of Absolute Individualism:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

For the individual to win the battle of ‘Samsara’, to gain freedom from the cycle of birth and death, to declare victory over death and to finally reach the shore and complete the long and tiresome swim across the uncharted ocean, he is required to disentangle himself from the cobweb of relationships and set himself free. The following prayer known as Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra illustrates the point:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

 Om,Triyambakam,Yajamahe sugandhim pushti vardhanam,

Urvaaru kamiva bhandha naat mrutyor muksheeya amrutaat.

Such liberated Individual who had freed himself from all external relationships would be able to proclaim his True Identity and the following verse written by Shri Shankaracharya is an example of an Individual who had reached the Goal Of Absolute Individualism:

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

Na Mrityur, na Shankaa, na me Jaati bheydaH,

Pitaa naiva, me naiva Maataa, na Janma,

Na Bandhur,na Mitram, Gurur naiva  SishyaH,

Chidaananda RupaH  ShivO aHam, ShivO aHam.

Thus Indian Identity is none other than the identity of “SHIVA” whose Individualistic Identity is described as Sat+Chit+Ananda.

lord-rama-with-seetha-lakshmana-and-hanuman
Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism.

In the Epic Poem of Ramayana, the concept of Individualism is vividly portrayed. Rama alone was required to live in the forest. He could have just refused to do so. No force upon earth could have moved Him but He made His own choice. Lakshmana made His own choice and accompanied His brother for a life in the forest. Rama made no decision about Seeta. He did not want her to accompany Him into the forest. Seeta made Her own decision. All of them express their own personal independence in unique manners.

Defining Indian Identity. The Doctrine of Individualism. The Man has no choice other than that of existing as an Individual with Individuality. His genome is unique and one of its own kind.

Whole Dude – Whole Persian

India and Iran – What is the Connection?

Whole Dude – Whole Persian: India and Iran – What is the connection? It relates to my military service in the Indian Army and the Royal Oman Army.

I joined the Indian Army Medical Corps during September 1969 when I qualified for the grant of  Short Service Regular Commission in the rank of Second Lieutenant. General Manekshaw had a very high reputation across all the ranks and branches of the Indian Armed Forces. I had no opportunity to meet him in person but I always felt motivated by his spirit and enthusiasm to perform military tasks with cheerfulness and a sense of strong conviction to uphold the pride and dignity of Indian Army.

MY CONNECTION WITH THE PARSI COMMUNITY OF INDIA:

Whole Dude – Whole Persian: Parsi Community in India had arrived from HORMUZ area of Persia. My military career in India began under the leadership of General Sam Manekshaw, a Parsi by birth, and Srimati Indira Gandhi who had married Feroze Gandhi, a Parsi by birth. Interestingly, my military career has ended in July 1986 at KHASAB, on the shores of the Strait of Hormuz.

Parsis are the followers in India of the Iranian Prophet Zoroaster. The name means Persians. According to tradition, the Parsis had initially settled at Hormuz on the Persian Gulf and they sailed to India in the 8th century. They form a well-defined community and they have retained almost unchanged the beliefs and customs of their ancestors. Just like other Indians, the Parsis consider the elements of Fire, Water and Earth as sacred. I would like to speak about two members of this community with whom I am  connected with love and a great admiration.

1. Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Manekshaw:

WHOLE DUDE – WHOLE PERSIAN: SAM THE BRAVE’-FIELD MARSHAL SAM HORMUSJI FRAMJI JAMSHEDJI MANEKSHAW, MILITARY CROSS, PADMA VIBHUSHAN, PADMA BHUSHAN, CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF 07 JUNE 1969-15 JAN 1973

In the year 1969, while I was a student at Kurnool Medical College, Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh, I qualified for the  grant of Short Service Regular Commission  to join the Indian Army Medical Corps in the rank of Second Lieutenant. I joined the Army Medical Corps on 26 July, 1970 in the rank of Lieutenant. On completion of my training, I got promoted to the rank of Captain on 26 July, 1971. My first task was getting ready for the crisis that India was facing on account of the influx of the Bangla refugees.

Whole Dude – Whole Persian: Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Manekshaw is popularly known as ‘SAM BAHADUR’. He was 8th Chief of Army Staff of Indian Army from 07 June 1969 to 15 January 1973. My career in the Indian Army commenced with this Parsi Connection. He served as the GOC-in-C of the Eastern Command.

General Manekshaw was born in Amritsar, Punjab to Parsi parents. He became the 8th Chief of Staff of the Indian Army in 1969 and his distinguished military career has spanned four decades and through five wars, including World War II. He has the rare distinction of being honoured for his bravery on the battle front itself. He won the Military Cross for display of his valour in face of stiff resistance from the Japanese while he was leading a counter-offensive against the invading Japanese Army in Burma. He is the architect of India’s heroic victory in the 1971 India-Pakistan War. He had shown uncommon ability to motivate the troops and coupled it with a mature war strategy. He had masterminded the rout of the Pakistan Army in one of the quickest victories in recent military history. I take pride in my military service and my connection to Sam Bahadur. This military experience has helped me while I participated in Military Security and Intelligence Operations at Strait of Hormuz, Persian Gulf during 1984 to 1986 while I served in Royal Oman Army.

Whole Dude – Whole Persian: The rugged sea coast of Musandam Peninsula where I had worked hard patrolling the coastline, visiting remote villages, looking for Iranian infiltrators. Iran is just 18 miles away. I used to look towards Bandar abbas of Iran which is clearly visible while I used to drive over these hill cliffs. I had a sense of fascination for Hormuz region of Iran. Parsi community of India had arrived from Hormuz. My military career in Indian Army had started under General Manek Shaw. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s husband Feroze Gandhi was a Parsi by birth. I had actually visited Iranian Embassy in Muscat. The Staff were excited to receive me as I went there in my military uniform and they had recognized that I was stationed at Khasab defending Strait of Hormuz. They wanted to help me but they had no powers. I was not seeking a tourist visa. I had reconciled. It was not God’s Plan. When God plans your Journey, there would be no obstacles. His uplifting power would enable you to overcome all obstacles.

I began my military service under the leadership of a member of the Parsi Community which had arrived in India from Hormuz area of Persian Gulf (Iran) and my military career came to a final conclusion  at Headquarters Peninsular Security Force (Hq PENSEC), Musandam, Khasab, on the shores of Persian Gulf at Strait of Hormuz while I was very actively involved in arresting the growth of Iranian influence in that area.

2. FEROZE GANDHI (FEROZE GANDHY):

INDIA  AND  IRAN  WHAT  IS  THE  CONNECTION ???  I  DESCRIBE  THIS  CONNECTION  FROM  MY  NATIONAL  PERSPECTIVE .  IT  NARRATES  MY  LIFE'S  JOURNEY  FROM  INDIA  TO  THE  SHORES  OF  STRAIT  OF  HORMUZ ,  PERSIAN  GULF . I SENT  A  LETTER  TO  MRS .  INDIRA  GANDHI  WHEN  SHE  BECAME  THE  THIRD  PRIME  MINISTER  OF  INDIA  IN  1966.
WHOLE DUDE – WHOLE PERSIAN: INDIA AND IRAN WHAT IS THE CONNECTION? I DESCRIBE THIS CONNECTION FROM MY NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE. IT NARRATES MY LIFE’S JOURNEY FROM INDIA TO THE SHORES OF STRAIT OF HORMUZ , PERSIAN GULF. I SENT A LETTER OF CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. INDIRA GANDHI WHEN SHE BECAME THE THIRD PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA IN 1966.
Whole Dude – Whole Persian: On January 24, 1966, Indira Gandhi became the third Prime Minister of India. She had married Feroze Gandhy or Feroze Gandhi born into a Parsi family. Feroze Gandhi was a Member of India’s First Parliament and had won elections to the Parliament in 1952 and 1957 from Rai Bareilly Constituency in Uttar Pradesh State.

Feroze Gandhi was born into a Parsi family. He was a member of India’s first Parliament. He won his election in 1952 and in 1957 from Rai Bareilly constituency in Uttar Pradesh. His wife was his election manager. He was the husband of India’s first woman Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi and the father of the former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. His grandson is a Member of Indian Parliament. Feroze died in 1960 but his name connects me to our beloved Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. I was a student in Kurnool Medical College in 1966 when Mrs. Gandhi was first appointed as the Prime Minister. I wrote her a personal letter to congratulate her and she had graciously responded to that letter. In 1967, I was in New Delhi to participate in a National Student Seminar for National Integration . Myself and other student delegates had a opportunity to meet Mrs. Gandhi at her residence and exchanged our views and expressed our concerns on several issues. After joining Indian Army, in 1971, I  joined duty at the Office of the Directorate General of Security which takes its orders from the Prime Minister’s Cabinet Secretariat. It gave me an opportunity to understand the great leadership role played by Mrs.Gandhi and it provided me an insight into her foreign policy initiatives. Mrs. Gandhi’s decisive leadership had helped India to successfully test our first nuclear weapon.

SPECIAL FRONTIER FORCE – OPERATION EAGLE – INDIRA GANDHI’S MILITARY ACTION IN THE CHITTAGONG HILL TRACTS – LIBERATION WAR OF BANGLADESH 1971:

Among several people who had participated in Operation Eagle 1971, I want to mention the name of Flight Lieutenant Parvez Jamasji of Indian Air Force, the Parsi helicopter pilot who helped me with my battle casualty evacuation from the Chittagong Hill Tracts to our Field Hospital at Lungleh, Mizoram.

WHOLE DUDE – WHOLE PERSIAN: OPERATION EAGLE 1971 – INDIA’S MILITARY VICTORY IN THE CHITTAGONG HILL TRACTS – THE PARSI CONNECTION

Iran is an ancient land. We had trade and Cultural relations with Iran (PERSIA – THE LAND OF ARYANS) for several centuries. People of Persian origin have immensely contributed to India in a variety of fields such as business, arts, architecture and public service. The Parsi community of India represents my connection to Iran, a Land which still proclaims its Aryan heritage.

I have good reasons to pay this tribute to Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw (‘SAM BAHADUR’) who passed away on June 27, 2008. I count him as my ‘Parsi Connection’ apart from Mrs. Indira Gandhi who was India’s Prime Minister when I reported to Officers Training School, AMC Centre, Lucknow on July 26, 1970 to attend Basic Medical Officers Course 20/70. Interestingly, when I left military service, I was at Strait of Hormuz near Hormuz region of Iran to which Parsi community has its historical relationship.

Perhaps because there are so few of us around, people feel obliged to email and SMS me snippets of news and views, blogs, pictures and videos about Parsees. The complimentary pieces are bittersweet gestures of affection for a friend. They come tinged with regret that seems to mourn the inevitable passing away of our tiny community. The last little video I got came with the message “You should be proud” and opened into a montage of the usual greats. I watched with only tepid interest as the pictures and names in blazoned heroic script passed across the screen. There was Jamshedji, and Dorabji, Nani, Fali and Soli. There was Bhikhaji Cama and atomic energy Bhabha and Rattan of course, Adi, and apro Zubin and Cyrus. I’d seen them all before. At the end, the video stalled and I realised I was mildly miffed at the producers who had missed one name.Still and sad, I stared hard at the little dots going round and round as the video buffered into its last five seconds. In those long moments, I felt my chest tighten and my eyes prick as I remembered the missing man. He had meant so much to us. Eight years dead this week, he was still right there at every family gathering, lighting up the room with silly teasing and laughter, telling funny stories about the cook in Amritsar whose kheema my mother could never match, or the fair girl who’d given him his first innocent kiss by the back loo in exchange for a promise not to tell the elders she was meeting with the local rake, or the tale of how he had exasperated his mother into throwing a bunch of keys at him for explaining to all the household that his hazel eyes came from being born in Egypt. When we asked; “Why Egypt? His only explanation was “Baby, that’s the only name I knew!”

He taught us the names of all the flowers in the garden and read us Scheherazade stories from the Arabian Nights. Then wickedly played king. My sister was the favoured and beautiful Lal Pari, I the ugly sidey grateful to be included. When we asked what our mother was he’d say airily: “Oh, she’s the lady in waiting — waiting for everything.” He loved being the hero and would post us scurrilous detective stories at boarding school. In the hols, I complained to my aunt that no one believed the letters were from my father and she cried out “Bhai, you’re still doing the same thing!” She had been an early victim in their school days.
He had enthusiasms and dragged us willy-nilly into them because they had to be shared by everyone around. So my mother, straw hat on head, walked across the winter sun fields near Delhi while he shot quail and joined the locals in chai on the khatia after. At home, my sister wiggled hot and impatient under studio lights while he perfected the angle of his tripod camera. At the race course, he taught me to feed our one-fourth of a race horse with an open flat hand so I wouldn’t get bitten. It mattered not at all that First Entry never won a race.
In Ferozpur, the huge grounds of Flagstaff House turned him farmer. So we all dug potatoes out of the ground, picked cotton and felt how aniseed tasted right off the stalk. In Mhow, he battled the cook for suzerainty over the kitchen and competed with him to show he could make the best tasting chola ever — for breakfast! In Coonoor, it was trout fishing and endless hours fiddling to find just the right rods and reels and being coaxed into spearing live bait on to hook because he wasn’t going to do it.
Then it was milch cows. We had to have them. All the houses along Porter Avenue got milk at the same price for 20 years. Meticulous accounts were kept. The grandchildren got the 6 am milk run and my mother got to name the animals: Rose (naturally, what else can you name a cow), then Rose Bud, then just Bud, then Bud Bud. Until the Gorkhas put their foot down and only a minimal cow was allowed to remain on the premises.
He loved being loved and retired hurt one time when our long time charioteer cook and Gorkhas agreed that “hamari madam jaisa koi nahi”. He wasn’t expecting it. Beyond the jesting, there was wisdom. “You must spoil your children and spoil your children but they must never get spoiled.” He’d say.
The video jerked into play and pulled me out of my reverie. At last I was face to face with the last name and portrait. We looked at each other and I realised I wasn’t looking for the Great Man at all but for the funny, handsome brave father whose face anyway lives behind my eyes — always.

Excerpt: The Michigan Medicine AHEAD study is examining the efficacy of a medication aimed at preventing Alzheimer’s Disease in individuals at increased risk of developing the disease. The study has, however, faced criticism regarding its focus on years of schooling and its lack of a research protocol to verify the identity and individuality of the human organism. Critics assert that biological processes like the flow of biological information and protein synthesis are not influenced by education level and that individuality should not be tied to factors such as race and ethnicity. The conceptualization of “life as knowledge in action” and that it is an interplay of cellular function and knowledge must be explored.

Whole Dude – Whole Education: Michigan Medicine asks, “How many years you have spent in School?” I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man.

The AHEAD Study is researching the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication in people who might be at increased risk for developing memory loss associated with Alzheimer’s Disease. The study is looking for participants age 55-80 years old, who have generally normal memory function in daily life, and who are not being treated for memory problems. For individuals age 55-64 years old, an additional risk factor is required, such as a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s Disease or previous biomarker testing showing increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s Disease. This study sees participants in Ann Arbor. Contact Lauren Mackenzie at spearsl@med.umich.edu or 734-232-2415.

On Tuesday, December 05, 2023, at the Michigan Clinical Research Unit (MCRU) at the Cardiovascular Center (CVC), I was interviewed for participating in the AHEAD Study and I completed the Stage 1A of the Screening process. I am asked to provide information about the most important occupation of my life, my sexual orientation, my race and ethnicity in the context of my place of birth and the country of origin, the total number of years I spent in the School to register my personal identity for participation in the Medical Research Project.

The AHEAD Study Research Protocol has not identified the basis for discovering the identity of a multicellular human organism. I can answer the questions I am asked. Do I have the ability to communicate my answers to the cells of my own body and reflect that identity in the living functions they perform to keep me alive?

Theory of Man precedes Theory of Health

Whole Dude – Whole Education: Michigan Medicine asks, “How many years you have spent in the School?” I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man. The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

In my analysis, there can be no ‘Theory of Health’ without sharing a ‘Theory of Man’. The question, “What is health?” cannot be asked without raising the question, “What is man?”

Whole Dude – Whole Education: Michigan Medicine asks, “How many years you have spent in the School?” I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man. The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

In my view, ‘ the existence of a man always precedes the essence of the man’. For that reason, the biological basis of the man’s existence must be identified to define the living entity called man. The natural event called ‘death’ precedes the natural event called ‘birth’ which heralds the arrival of newborn Life. The newborn always arrives after several programmed cellular death events.

Whole Dude – Whole Education: Michigan Medicine asks, “How many years you have spent in the School?” I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man. The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

The man’s existence in any condition, good health or ill-health, at any age, at any given time and place, depends upon Divine Providence characterized as Mercy, Grace, and Compassion (Sanskrit. Krupa) of LORD God Creator. The man does not exist in the natural world because of his physical and mental work. The man needs input of matter and energy, from an external source, from the moment of conception to the conclusion of his entire life journey. The man’s existence is always conditioned as he cannot regulate, control, operate, rule, or govern either internal, or external factors that determine the fact of his existence.

The Medical Science fails to define the term ‘health’ for it fails to define the term ‘man’. To attach meaning to health, I must attach meaning to the word called ‘man’. I categorically inform Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan not to withhold their educational experience as a professional secret.

Whole Dude – Whole Education: Michigan Medicine asks, “How many years you have spent in the School?” I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to share its educational experience and publish its Theory of Man. The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

The man represents a biological or biotic community of trillions of individuals; independent, living cells with individuality. The Man is also a natural host to trillions of microbes. Human life must be defined in terms of biotic interactions; both intraspecific, and interspecific biotic interactions.

I ask Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan to apply the principles of Clinical Medicine not only to diagnose ill health but also to diagnose good and perfect or ‘Whole Health’ for the man is created by entity called God who is always Perfect and Whole.

Theory of Man–The Spectrum of Seven Colors

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

My ‘Theory of Man’ defines the Man as the ‘Spectrum of Seven Colors’. Isaac Newton could easily verify his ‘Theory of Light’ by conducting his critical experiment in which he used two prisms to breakdown and to reconstitute white light rays. In case of Man, such experimental verification is not possible as Science does not have the capability to breakdown the man and reconstitute him. However, Science provides verified information about the building blocks of life and about basic living functions such as ‘Metabolism’ which essentially involve making, breaking, and repairing ‘Molecules of Life’.

The Social Being, 4. The Moral Being, 5. The Spiritual Being, 6. The Created Being, and 7. The Rational Being. Science called Cell & Molecular Biology can account for biomolecules of life and yet do not explain or account for the constitution of Man as a Rational Being.

Whole Dude – Whole Species: Michigan Medicine asks, What is your Race and What is your Ethnicity?

Excerpt: The Michigan Medicine AHEAD study is examining the efficacy of a medication aimed at preventing Alzheimer’s Disease in individuals at increased risk of developing the disease. The study has, however, faced criticism regarding its focus on years of schooling and its lack of a research protocol to verify the identity and individuality of the human organism. Critics assert that biological processes like the flow of biological information and protein synthesis are not influenced by education level and that individuality should not be tied to factors such as race and ethnicity. The conceptualization of “life as knowledge in action” and that it is an interplay of cellular function and knowledge must be explored.

Whole Dude – Whole Species: Michigan Medicine asks, What is your Race and What is your Ethnicity?

The AHEAD Study is researching the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication in people who might be at increased risk for developing memory loss associated with Alzheimer’s Disease. The study is looking for participants age 55-80 years old, who have generally normal memory function in daily life, and who are not being treated for memory problems. For individuals age 55-64 years old, an additional risk factor is required, such as a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s Disease or previous biomarker testing showing increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s Disease. This study sees participants in Ann Arbor. Contact Lauren Mackenzie at spearsl@med.umich.edu or 734-232-2415.

Whole Dude – Whole Species: Michigan Medicine asks, What is your Race and What is your Ethnicity?

On Tuesday, December 05, 2023, at the Michigan Clinical Research Unit (MCRU) at the Cardiovascular Center (CVC), I was interviewed for participating in the AHEAD Study and I completed the Stage 1A of the Screening process. I am asked to provide information about the most important occupation of my life, my sexual orientation, my race and ethnicity in the context of my place of birth and the country of origin, the total number of years I spent in the School to register my personal identity for participation in the Medical Research Project. The Research Protocol has not identified the basis for discovering the identity of a multicellular human organism. I can answer the questions I am asked. Do I have the ability to communicate my answers to the cells of my own body and reflect that identity in the living functions they perform to keep me alive?

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species and rejects the concept of race and ethnicity to identify the Anatomically Modern Man called Homo sapiens sapiens

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species

Yes indeed, Life is complicated. The phenomenon of Life demands the interdependence, interconnectedness, and interrelatedness of a varied range of immutable species. Today, some anthropologists entirely reject the concept of “RACE.” However, they stress the heterogeneity of world population. In Biology, the term ‘race’ is used to describe a subspecies, or variety, or breed. At the same time the present Identification Technology such as the Fingerprints, Iris Scans, Facial Recognition Technology, Skin Surface Texture Recognition Technology allows the recognition of each member of the Human Species as a specific Individual with Individuality. 

Spirituality Science – The Human Species:

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE - THE HUMAN SPECIES: Carolus Linnaeus. Taxonomist, was the founder of the binomial system of nomenclature and the originator of modern scientific classification of plants and animals. Taxonomy is the branch of Natural Science that deals with systematic categorization of organisms.
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE HUMAN SPECIES: Carolus Linnaeus. Taxonomist, was the founder of the binomial system of nomenclature and the originator of modern scientific classification of plants and animals. The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species is the branch of Natural Science that deals with systematic categorization of organisms.

Carolus Linnaeus also known as Carl Linnaeus, (b. May 23, 1707, d. January 10, 1778) Swedish botanist, a doctor of medicine, and explorer was the first to frame principles for defining genera and species of organisms and to create a uniform system for naming them. The static concept of species or the morphological concept of species was proposed by Carolus Linnaeus. As per Linnaeus, species are fixed and immutable entities, there is no change in the species and do not vary in form, size or shape.

Linnaeus published his Systema Naturae in 1735 and Genera Plantarum in 1737. He presented and explained his classification system that was based mainly on flower parts which tend to remain unchanged from generation to generation.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE - THE HUMAN SPECIES: LINNAEUS DIVIDED ORGANISMS INTO TWO KINGDOMS - 1. ANIMALIA(ANIMALS), AND 2. PLANTAE(PLANTS). THE KINGDOMS ARE DIVIDED INTO THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES: PHYLUM OR DIVISION, CLASS, ORDER, FAMILY, GENUS, AND SPECIES.
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE HUMAN SPECIES: LINNAEUS DIVIDED ORGANISMS INTO TWO KINGDOMS – 1. ANIMALIA (ANIMALS), AND 2. PLANTAE (PLANTS). THE KINGDOMS ARE DIVIDED INTO THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES: PHYLUM OR DIVISION, CLASS, ORDER, FAMILY, GENUS, AND SPECIES USING TRAITS AND CHARACTERISTICS THAT CAN BE OBSERVED.

Linnaeus in his Systema Naturae gives a very precise description of man, placing him among the Class – Mammals, in the Order of Primates which includes the apes. Further, Linnaeus describes the varieties of man such as The Asian, The African, and The European. He depends only on external characteristics to place objects into a rational set of categories. Thus Linnaeus formulates a Static Taxonomy in which Species of living things appear to be immutable in type throughout the ages. The Species, the fundamental unit of Classification, consists of populations of morphologically similar individuals that share the similar collection of characteristics whose combination is unique to the Species. In other words, Species is distinguished by its ability to maintain its stability from generation to generation. Since Species is self-perpetuating, they maintain the stability of all other groupings like the genera, phyla, and families which remain fixed from generation to generation. Apart from the observed stability of all recognized Species, the chemical molecules that are essential to compose the Living Matter, Material, or Substance called Protoplasm have always maintained their stability. For example, water molecule is the most important of all the biomolecules of Life and its chemical composition and properties are held stable over billions of years. 

The Natural Law of Propagation:

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE - THE HUMAN SPECIES: THE FRENCH NATURALIST GEORGES LOUIS LECLERC COMTE DE BUFFON(1707-1788) DETERMINED SPECIES NOT BY THEIR PHYSICAL APPEARANCES BUT BY THEIR REPRODUCTIVE HISTORY.
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE HUMAN SPECIES: THE FRENCH NATURALIST GEORGES LOUIS LECLERC COMTE DE BUFFON (1707-1788) DETERMINED SPECIES NOT BY THEIR PHYSICAL APPEARANCES BUT BY THEIR REPRODUCTIVE HISTORY. IN HIS VIEW, THE APES AND OTHER ANIMALS LACK THE ABILITY TO SPEAK; “THE STYLE IS THE MAN HIMSELF.”

The French naturalist Buffon in his monumental compendium on Natural History (44 Volumes), Histoire Naturelle General et Particuliere – 1749-1804, describes man as a zoological species. Buffon determined species not by their physical appearances but by their reproductive history. Two individual animals or plants are of the same Species if they can produce fertile offspring. Species are known only through the history of its natural propagation. By the law of natural propagation, offspring will always be of the same species as the parent organism. A Species always breeds true. Its members always generate organisms which can be classified as belonging to the same Species, however much they vary among themselves as individuals within the group. The sub-groups, the races or varieties of Species are able to breed with one another, but diverse Species cannot interbreed. Organisms different in Species cannot reproduce productively and if crossbred, like the horse and the ass, they produce a sterile hybrid like the mule.

The Natural Law of Propagation can be described as “The Law of Creation and Individuality.” Each kind of living thing always arrives as an original, distinctive, unique, and one of its own kind of object. No living thing has an independent choice of its own and there is no choice other than that of existing as a created object that can be identified as a specific individual thing with Individuality. Even with the use of the latest reproductive technology such as cloning, man cannot use the reproductive process to cause the existence of two identical living things.

The term ‘Species’ must be used for purposes of ease and convenience as they are trillions of Individual living things with Individuality. In my view, the French naturalist Buffon had defined the term ‘Species’ correctly using the Natural Law of Propagation.

The Natural History of Man:

When man is viewed as the subject of scientific investigation, the empirical knowledge of man is provided by observations of his structure (ANATOMY), functions (PHYSIOLOGY), his behavior (PSYCHOLOGY), his culture (ANTHROPOLOGY), and his past (ARCHAEOLOGY).

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE HUMAN SPECIES: DR. EDWARD TYSON, M.D., CONDUCTED STUDIES (1699) SPONSORED BY THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF LONDON TO ANALYZE IN GREAT DETAIL THE SIMILARITIES AND DISSIMILARITIES BETWEEN A CHIMPANZEE AND A MAN.

The study of the Natural History of Man was stimulated by the encounters with the great anthropoid Apes of Africa and Asia at the beginning of the 16th century. The discovery of the Chimpanzee and the Orangutan (meaning “Man of the Woods” in Malay language) raised questions about the status of Apes and their relation to Man. Dr. Edward Tyson, M.D., conducted studies (1699) sponsored by the Royal Society of London to analyze in great detail the similarities and the dissimilarities between a Chimpanzee and a man. For Tyson, the Chimpanzee was the missing link between animal and Man. But, Tyson and Darwin have no evidence to show that Chimpanzee or any other intermediate Species can actually transform its genome by gradual modification and appear in the physical world as a brand new Human Species.

Johann Friedrich Blumenbach is recognized as the Father of Physical Anthropology for his work De Generis Humani Varietate Nativa (1775-76). His research in the measurement of human skulls led him to divide mankind into five great families; Caucasian, Mongolian, Malayan, Ethiopian, and American. Human Species may include varieties that can be grouped into Races by using some common morphological traits.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE HUMAN SPECIES: CHARLES DARWIN’S ORIGIN OF SPECIES (1859) PROPOSED A MECHANISTIC, NONPURPOSIVE  ACCOUNT OF EVOLUTION AS THE PRODUCT OF THE NATURAL SELECTION OF RANDOMLY PRODUCED GENETIC MUTATIONS.

Charles Darwin had no particular problem with the term ‘Species’ and in his view, Species is the term used to signify “a set of individuals closely resembling each other” – a class of plants or animals having certain characteristics. However, he wanted to seek a genealogical relationship among the various forms of life. His ideas demand a dynamic or genealogical classification of living things. While holding that new Species originate in the course of time, Darwin formulated a view about the Origin of Species and their differentiation, and the factors or circumstances under which some life forms cease to have the status of species or become extinct.

But, Darwin fails to fully account for the reality called existence. There is no Natural Law or Principle that can fully account for the existence of Life on planet Earth.

IF THE NATURAL CLIMATIC CONDITIONS AND OTHER FACTORS CAN SUPPORT THE EXISTENCE OF THE HUMAN SPECIES, IT MUST BE EXPLAINED AS THE CAUSE OF THE EXTINCTION OF ALL OTHER SPECIES OF THE HOMO GENUS.

Evolutionary Biology describes Man as a direct descendant of nonhuman Primates. From the interpretation of fossils have arisen concepts of mutation (the process by which the genetic material of a cell is altered), transformism (the theory that one Species is changed into another) and Evolution through mechanistic, unguided, purposeless and random events.

At a fundamental level, The Great Chain of Living Beings has to be explained as a Continuity while the individual Species of Living Beings arrive as a sequence of discrete, creative steps. The precise physical form of Man as a special form or as a Human Species has to be explained by describing the role of natural factors and natural conditions of climate or environment that may determine the actual characteristics of a given Species. The morphological variations among the various members of the Homo Genus have to be related to the variations in diet, physical activity, and physical climatic conditions and the observed variations must explain the reproductive success or failure of the Species.

In my view, the substance or material called the Living Matter always exists  with the same chemical composition resisting any influence of changing Time. Because of this Unchanging Principle, the Principle of Unity, the observed phenomenon of Biodiversity is manifested in the natural world.The forms assumed by the Living Matter have always varied to demonstrate the operation of a creative mechanism that maintains the stability of each Species while generating variations among members of the same Species and between different Species.

I would further seek to explain the arrival of the Human Species as a Creative Event as other member Species of the Genus Homo disappeared simultaneously without any specific contribution made by the Nature or the natural living conditions that prevail on planet Earth.

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection. The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection is not supported by the Cell Theory

Yes indeed, Life is complicated. If Life is a discussion about the Living Things, the conversation pertains to the two basic principles about the constitution of the Living Things. The principles are, 1. Form, and 2. Matter. The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection tries to account for the phenomenon of biodiversity without giving attention to the Unchanging Nature, Composition, and Functions of the Living Matter described by Science as Protoplasm or Cytoplasm, a gelatinous Substance common to all Living Things. Rudolf-Rudi refute the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection for there is no evolutionary change in the building blocks of Life.

Spirituality Science – Human Evolution:

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection at Whole Foods. Rudolf-Rudi refute the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection. Charles Darwin’s great contributions to Biology: “The Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection: Or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle of Life”(1859), The Descent of Man (1871), The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals (1872).

Darwin’s Theory of Evolution involves the notion of a common ancestor for both man and the anthropoid apes. “In The Descent of Man” (1871), Charles Darwin shared a view of man’s origin by a process of natural variation from an ancestral type. We have yet to discover a common ancestor for both the anthropoid apes such as the Gorilla and the Anatomically Modern Man. Both Gorilla and Chimpanzee are natives of Africa and they exist with 48 chromosomes as compared to man’s genome that consists of 46 chromosomes.

Evolution by Natural Selection

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection at Whole Foods. Rudolf-Rudi refute the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection.

Rudolf Virchow believed the idea that humans were the descendants of apes was an attack on society’s moral foundations. In 1858, Darwin and Wallace’s theory of evolution by natural selection was unleashed on an unsuspecting world. 

In its early years the theory of evolution was highly controversial and was fiercely debated. Virchow opposed the theory from the beginning and never relented in his opposition.

When Charles Darwin published his On the Origin of Species in 1858, Virchow was already publicly speaking out against the naturalist’s views on evolution.

In fact, in 1877, he said the idea that man had descended from apes was an attack on society’s moral foundations. He voiced his opinion that teaching the theory of evolution should not be permitted in Germany’s public schools.

Even after Darwin published his groundbreaking report, Virchow continued to speak against him and insisted that evolution was simply a hypothesis and subject to change. He was so adamant in his decision that he succeeded in getting natural history removed from school curriculum in favor of alternate hypotheses. Until he died, he insisted evolution was merely one of the multiple theories to explain human existence and required further evidence.

Virchow continued to research and write about the human body as a microcosm for society at large. Perhaps the most well-known contribution Rudolf Virchow made to the medical field was his research on cell theory. Virchow asserted that living cells do not spontaneously occur, but instead come from another living cell by way of cell division. He referred to the body as a “cell state in which each cell is a citizen.” Diseases, therefore, were just “conflict[s] between the citizens of the state, caused by outer forces.”

Human Chromosome #2 attracted a lot of attention for the nearest ape relative bonobo has near identical DNA sequences . But, the problem is that of the separation of these DNA sequences into two chromosomes called #2 a, and #2 b giving the apes a genome with 48 chromosomes.

Man and apes exist with genomes that are almost identical and yet man cannot directly descend from the anthropoid apes. The fusion of Chromosomes #2 a, and #2 b would cause the production of a non-viable mutant or an individual who may not produce any offspring. Firstly, we need a male and a female with this fused chromosome in their gametes; the sperm and the egg to produce an offspring with a unique set of 46 chromosomes; 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of (XY or XX) of Sex Chromosomes X,Y. It requires two identical, rare, mutant, male and female to produce offspring and to establish an entirely new population. The Theory of Evolution proposes that random, unguided, mutations lead to changes in a Species and eventually lead to its descent as a new Species. If fusion of two, distinct, separate chromosomes such as #2 a, and #2 b is required, the fusion event must happen in a Hominid population about 10,000 years ago and this population would have no relationship with the living apes.

The term “RACE” describes any of the different varieties or populations of human beings distinguished by physical traits such as hair, eyes, skin color, shape of body and head, facial features, and blood traits. These physical traits or characteristics are transmitted by heredity. However, it must be noted that such traits are highly variable, not every member of a race will exhibit all distinguishing traits. But, it is very clear that Human Races or varieties arose in response to inbreeding and not on account of interbreeding of different subspecies.

Anthropologists had initially described three primary divisions of people, 1. Caucasoid, 2. Mongoloid, and 3. Negroid. Thomas Huxley in his paper titled “On the Geographical Distribution of the Chief Modifications of Mankind” (1870), had described racial varieties such as Bushman, Africoid, Negritoes, Melanochroi, Australoids, Xanthochroi, Polynesians, Mongoloids A, B, & C, and Esquimaux.

It is of no surprise to note the controversy regarding the terms used to identify the varieties of mankind. As such there is no agreement and the word ‘Species’ has no defined meaning. There are two schools of thought to account for the apparent variations among the members of the Human Species. Monogeny describes a view that all human races came from a common ancestor. Polygeny is a view that asserts the separate creation of races.

The Biological Basis for Human Races:

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE - HUMAN EVOLUTION: THE VARIATIONS AMONG MEMBERS OF THE SAME SPECIES AND OF DIFFERENT SPECIES CANNOT BE IGNORED.

Today, some anthropologists entirely reject the concept of “RACE.” However, they stress the heterogeneity of world population. In Biology, the term ‘race’ is used to describe a subspecies, or variety, or breed. The search for a common ancestor for the entire Human Species is not yet over. In recent times, the techniques of DNA extraction and genomic sequencing have advanced. Evolutionary geneticists are describing their findings with a degree of boldness by simply studying the DNA and using the finding to predict the behavior and nature of the Homo Species members.

RED DEER CAVE PEOPLE ARE NOT CLASSIFIED AS MODERN HUMANS.

To resolve the problems about finding the biological basis for human races, we may have to take the help of the Science called Immunology that deals with man’s ability to defend his own existence by recognizing Self and Non-Self marker proteins (antigens), the protein molecules that cover the surfaces of every cell in the human body.

The Law of Creation and Individuality:

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE - HUMAN EVOLUTION: THE MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX(MHC) IS THE HUMAN LEUKOCYTE ANTIGEN(HLA) GENE CLUSTER ON CHROMOSOME 6. HUMAN ORGANS AND TISSUES CANNOT BE TRANSPLANTED OR GRAFTED INTO THE BODIES OF UNRELATED INDIVIDUALS. HUMAN IDENTITY MUST BE DISCOVERED AT MOLECULAR LEVEL TO ESTABLISH THE AFFINITY BETWEEN TWO HUMAN INDIVIDUALS.

The many aspects of immunological recognition is more important than that of the recognition of ancestral Species from which the Human Species may have arrived or descended. The HLA antigens are very remarkable for the extensive degree of genetic polymorphism; that is the variability between individuals is very great and there could be no two identical individuals as unrelated individuals have different HLA antigens. Histocompatibility is a condition of compatibility between the tissues of a graft or transplant and the tissues of the body receiving the graft or transplant. The understanding of histocompatibility is important for the success of organ transplantation and it clearly demonstrates that the Human Species has no choice other than that of existing as Specific Individuals with Individuality.

The Rudolf-Rudi Connection Supports the Doctrine of Static Taxonomy of Immutable Species and rejects the concept of race and ethnicity to identify the Anatomically Modern Man called Homo sapiens sapiens. The Text Book of Cellular Pathology published by German Pathologist Rudolf Virchow.

The concept of descent from another Species cannot account for immunological recognition which formulates the basis for histocompatibility and Immunity from infections.
