1 Another tutorial [for dyno’s]
Patanjali
I have noticed that my friend Ashwamedh started,as usualy he do, a new campaign for developing / helping the new players of eIndia.
Also, you must know that in this new cycle I start today, I will consider myself as cultural amabasador of eIndia and, that for, my newspaper will show up the MoMC banner.
In this cycle I will not ask anymore questions, to my readers, but make statements.
Kal ho na ho - whether there might be a tomorrow or not
Motto:
LIKE this alabaster box whose art
Is frail as a cassia-flower, is my heart,
Carven with delicate dreams and wrought
With many a subtle and exquisite thought.
Therein I treasure the spice and scent
Of rich and passionate memories blent
Like odours of cinnamon, sandal and clove,
Of song and sorrow and life and love. - Sarojini Naidu, AP born, TN educated, great women of India and world
So, intending to suport the effort of my friend I think it is apropiate to gave even to the „mentors” a kind of ... education, because they could evolved in this eWorld without a certain guidance and, for sure, this is good because they developed diferent personality, aproach of the game and so on, but a talk about the fundaments will be beneficial for them too, I belive.
That for, at this level the „game mechanics” are not very important but became crucial to talk about „human values”.
Those mentors,like all of us, are keept to act and react in a social enviroment (even this imaginary one, called eR) and to interact with the new players trying to improve them.
Preferably not just like players but as humans too. And this is the aim of the present cycle of articles from Gog and Magog.
So, let’s began with the basics, recognized by all humans, religions, philosophy, etc.
The 10 commandements or, more apropiate the Yama and Niyama
Ahimsa (अहिंसा) = is related to the 6-th commandement ”Thou shalt not kill.”, but the meaning is much more different in indian view, meaning Nonviolence .
Is this important in a game ? where is presumed we must conquere others, we could not harm anyother anyhow, we are ... playing.
I think yes, because this also affect our relation with others, the way we perceive the community, the game and the ... asmita existence of ourselves, after all.
Those days I noticed two interesting facts, behaviours at my friends.
First is related to the RD1234 nontolerance towards „rats” (Glenu is in big danger) going even to the statement that they „must be killed as they are spoted”.
The second related to the atitude of miles247 who, conceiving a kind of anarchy, state that all the elders must be „erased” in order to have a fresh start, a new begining, without stupid rules (like the one of „ahimsa”
😃).
Also, in eMoldova, a lot of people are arguing and debating wich one of them „own” the thruth and, in the name of this one, are fighting all the rest, in order to „establish a true order” and,eventually,escaping the ppl from the tirany and deceptions of the others.
So, you see, „killing” is not solely related to persons (here we have no animals or flowers or ...) but also to ideas, like the idea of oblivion of some sort of species (again, not necesarily animals) or the „true fight for the RIGHT cause” (like the crusades).
This is also important because this kind of atitude are creating effects wich are not withe (sukla) but black (krsna) and, that for, it is even recomended to quit playing if this kind of effects apear.
In oposition to this, the good deeds, willimprove even the experience of playing, and also the life of ourselves, on the base of practicing the virtues (punya) and having as effect the happynes (hlada).
With the hoppe that this first statement was perceived by you as a good „incentive” for future,
Toate cele bune !

Thank you very much Maniu bhai - your support is not only welcome, it is also necessary ! o>
thank you for the article
Voted... Nice article.. 🙂
Wise words, as usual! : )
Inspiring as always...
haha, but still, I hate rats disgusting little creatures, whom, I'd stamp if I can, slimy things that walk all around and kill lots of people
i hate rats too. i even hate pigeons because they look like rats with wings.
see Maniu, thats where problem lies. This is a society which teaches its children to accept the traditions. They teach u that if u want something, u gotta say it gently and without violence. but actually they are just making u one of themselves. Whatever they have collected throughout their life, they package-wrap it and give it to u.
I refuse to accept that package. I am very much capable of thinking and judging things on my own and I will. Old doesnt want that. It wants me to tread the same old path that it had taken. I want to do something new. I want to evolve. I dont want their rotting knowledge and traditions. I can create new ones and I will. Old halts evolution which is only aim of life for me. So either it will get out of my way or it will get blown apart. Coz I am not stopping for anyone's sake and I am not letting anyone stop me either.
PS: As I have always said in the past, its just my view. If someone disagrees, that wud be his view. But I am not changing my ideology for anyone.

chiar de nu vei intelege nici un cuvant eu tot iti scriu citatul care imi place atat de mult si care ar trebui sa ti se potriveasca:
"Nu merge pe unde te duce drumul,mergi pe unde nu exista drum si lasa o urma."(R.W.Emerson)
Nu te cunosc dar judecand dupa commentul acesta nu ai deschiderea necesara (nici ptr trecut nici ptr viitor) si este exclus sa evoluezi.Esti mort,incremenit in loc si e putin probabil sa deschizi drumuri sau sa lasi macar o urma.
As fi scris asta in engleza dar nu stapanesc suficient limba.Scuze
