Vajpayee and the laws of Manu - Musharraf better brush up on Indian Mythology and the Laws of Manu before his encounter with Vajpayee I bet that the Prime Minister, Vajpayee has read the Laws of Manu, esp Chapter seven which lays down the rules and regulations that a king should follow. 4 -5: I bet he believes that he is the composite repository of amsas or particles: an amsa or a particle of Indra, of the Wind, of Yama, of the Sun, of Fire, of Varuna, of the Moon, and of the Lord of wealth (Kubera). 10: Being fully cognizant of his power, the place and the time, he assumes many roles for attaining justice. 20: He knows that just punishment of the culprit is essential in order to protect the weaker, for the stronger would roast the weaker like the fish on a spit. 68: Let the king gather information on the designs of the other king and take appropriate measures to ward off any evil on himself or his kingdom. 87: The king, being duty-bound by his varna / office, must protect his people from the other king whether he is of equal, inferior or superior strength. 102: Let the king be ready to strike at a moment's notice, display his military power, keep his secrets close to his chest, and explore the weakness of his enemy. 104: Let the king act without treachery, and deceit, but find the depth of treachery of the enemy. 105: Let the king conceal and protect his weakness like a tortoise withdraws its limbs and find out about the weakness of the enemy. 106: He should know how to be patient and cunning as a heron, how to pose like a lion, how to grab the prey like a wolf and how to run like a rabbit in retreat. 107: The king should employ four expedients: Conciliation, bribery, dissension, and physical force. (Act like a dove, Offer MFN status, Dissension, and physical force) 109: Of the four expedients, acting like a dove or conciliation is the best 110: Protect the crop and pull out the weeds.

Think about it 156: Know your friends and foes. The friend, the friend of a friend, the foe and the friend of the foe, the sneak attacker, his friends and foes. 158: The immediate neighbor is an enemy and the neighbor of the enemy is a friend or neutral (until proven otherwise) 159: Let the king conciliate with all of them, if it is not possible, use bribery (trade / cultural exchange), dissension and physical force. 180: Political wisdom dictates that the king - his subjects and his kingdom - does not get hurt by the friend, foe or the neutral.

Vajpayee and the five talking heads of Musharraf: The Poet and the five hats --JPR Musharraf holds five posts, namely CAF, COAS, CE, HEAD of NSC, and the PREZ.- - Commander of armed forces, Chief of Army Staff, Chief Executive, Head of National Security Council, and the President. This five-headed pseudo-Brahma wears five hats. The mushhead will be talking through his five hats. What a disaster! Vajpayeee may have problem communicating with these five talking heads. I think that the Indian software and hardware engineers have devised mute and volume control buttons for Vajpayee's use to cope with the formidable talking heads. Once the system becomes operational, Vajpayee shouldn't have problem controlling this penta-cephalic cretin.
