(Expected 2023) May 9-2021

Avoid last benches. Otherwiseu'll fall prey to questioningby professors at the 
end of lectures

Build good rapport withseniors. Some can be like Sandeepbhaiya in ur lives❤️

Give a tour of your campusright in initial days to know thelocation of wards 
and yes without apron.

If whole batch plans mass bunk,don't attend the lecturejust because a few 
overenthusiastic want to. You'll be criticised for itforever

Never argue with professors. And wish them good morning/afternoonwhenever u 
come across them.

Wear shoes in lecture halls andnot chappals (some of our professorsdoes not 
allow us to attend if without shoes). Dress up decently and be cleanshaven

My note- During 1997’s there wasone Professor Marikar in Trivandrum Medical 
college. He would not permit any lady student without wearing   saree in his 
class. My colleague’s daughter was studying in TrivandrumMedical College.  
Information from her.

Don't beat about the bush in vivas, answer to the point or else just say‘Sorry 
Sir' 🙂

Not everyone in your batch canbe a good friend. Try to spot and avoid fake 
friends

Enjoy every events in college. Don't be buried inside books that time. Those 
days won't come back to you 😭

Don't skip wards on a regularbasis in 3rd semester

intotwo.

A3          Rami Sivan Priest,Dharma teacher, counsellor, Gov. Advisor 
(1998–present)Tue

The physicians of the gods arethe twin Ashvins - they are thebest, but they 
don’t treatnon-gods except on very very special occasions. They are the twin 
sonsof the Sun God and were so important in Vedic times that there are 50 
hymnsdedicated to them in Rig Veda (Vishnu only has 5 hymns dedicated to him).

The universal physician foreveryone is Dhanvantari. Since theAshvins have long 
gone into retirement he has taken over the health portfoliofor the world.

You may askwhat is he doing about COVID19?

He has inspired and directed thecreation of the Vaccines in record speed time, 
so now it is up to us mortals to carry the workforward and get everyone 
vaccinated ASAP - and we will probably have to getbooster doses every year for 
the rest of our lives.

Q8         Afully vaccinated Delhi doctor succumbed to covid today. Are Indian 
vaccines notgood?

A8          KanthaswamyBalasubramaniam Lawyer Mon

They said itscalled Viral Load.

The Viral Load in a Closed CovidCare Ward with 30–40 patients is 30000 times 
higher than any other place.

Its impossible not to get infected if you work in such an environment for18 
hours a day

The Load is so high that theImmune System cannot create Antibodies fast enough 
and by this time the Virus replicates in the lungs and the Immune Systemattacks 
blindly.

Dr Rawat, an Ex-Army Surgeon musthave been exposed to a very big load of Virus 
which would have overwhelmed him.

Other places do not have such high viral loads. So Vaccination canprotect 
people better.

And Full Protection comes after12 weeks of the First Dose and 6 Weeks after the 
Second.

The Doctor got his first dose on 17th March 2021. He got his second doseon 
22–4–21. Not enough time and too much exposure.

Places with HighViral Loads:-

Closed Covid Care Wards

Closed Hospital Wards

Closed Hospital Outpatient Rooms

Bus Stands toilets RailwayStations toilets Airport Toilets

Wedding Food DiningHalls and Wedding Halls

Religious Ceremonies in closed God Chambers with people watching.

Places withrelatively low Viral Loads

Supermarkets     Provision Stores Laboratories       Open Spaces        Home    
Apartments

My note- I haveadded this QA for explanation about viral load, where it can be 
more and whereit can be less

 

Q9         Arehumans actually designed to eat meat (their teeth aren't sharp 
like how mostcarnivores' teeth are)?

A9          Matt Riggsby Mon

What we’re “designed” for (notthe right word, but we’ll pass over that) is 
eating cooked food, whether it’smeat or plants. 

Our canines are indeed not that great when compared to, say, tigers orwolves. 
On the other hand, our jaws are very weak and not well adaptedto grinding tough 
plant material. We’re adapted for a diet of soft,cooked foods. Once that gets 
into our intestines, we’re adapted for a broadrange of foods. 

We digest both meat and plantspretty well. We’re omnivores, butwe’re omnivores 
in our own unique way, and analogy to other species doesn’twork for us.

Q10       Whatis a stand you took with your in-laws that you will never 
apologize for?

A10        Ch. Lavanya Lecturer Mon

It was not against my in-laws but their relatives. My husband's familywas very 
closely knit those days.

My marriage ceremony was coming to an end when my husband's cousins whoalmost 
dominated the marriage from the beginning put a condition.

“We want fridge for groom andif you promise now we will take your daughter 
otherwise no..”

I was shocked to hear that.I immediately, in front of all the relativessaid-“My 
father is no way going to fulfil your desire. I'm going to buy on myown…”

Now it was their turn to get shocked. Nobody expected this response froma newly 
wed bride.

And till today I don't regret my decision. I feel lucky that my husband 
supported my decision.

Till today my sister-in-law's make fun of me for my response that day butI feel 
proud of myself.Iknow how my parents struggled for us!

Q11       Is density directlyproportional to volume?

A11        Akshra Sharma-, lives inJammu City, Jammu and Kashmir, India 
(2021-present) Answered 2h ago

No, density is not directly proportional to the volume.

As according to the formula,

Density = Mass / Volume

Therefore, density is inverselyproportional to the volume and directly 
proportional to mass.

2nd answer- CherukupalliAbhiram, studied Science & Mathematics Answered 1h ago

Density doesn’t depend on volume, it only depends on temperature andpressure.

As you increase volume, mass increases proportional to it, making thedensity 
remain constant (provided the conditions don’t change)

3rd answer- AryanMattoo , Class 10 Boards : 98% |Class8 Boards : 96%|Studying 
in 12th-Answered 2h ago

Density is inversely proportional to volume.

We know the formula; Density = Mass ÷ Volume

Hence, density is directly proportional to mass not volume. Density isinversely 
proportional to the volume.

Q12       Howdid Krishna die?

A12        The Xennial 16 April2021·

This is the story of how a godmet his end...

The popular version of the storyof Krishna’s death starts with Gandhari’s 
curse. But if you really go back, the death of Krishnawas foretold much, much 
before that one event. And to know its roots, one mustgo back in time long 
before the events of Mahabharata even began to unfold. 

To be precise, at a time whenRama was wandering the forests of the land looking 
for Ravana who had kidnapped his wife, Sita. As we know, Rama and Krishnaare 
both incarnations of Vishnu.

In any case, during his travels, Rama comes across Sugreeva, an exiledmonkey 
king who claims to be wronged by his brother, Vali. 

Rama agrees to help Sugreeva and fires a fatal shot from behind athicket. 

When Vali learns of his true slayer, he seeks from Rama the permission tokill 
him in his next life, a boon that Rama grants.

Cut to the end of theKurukshetra battle when Gandhari is mourning the loss of 
her 100 sons. The Pandavas, accompanied by Krishna, arrive inher chambers to 
offer condolences but Gandhari is so distraughtshe curses that Krishna’s clan 
would meet a similar gruesome end as that of hersons. 

Krishna smiles and says tathastu, or so be it, setting into motion thefinal 
round of events that would bring an end of the Yadava clan, to which hebelonged.

In the years following the Kurukshetra war, the Yadavas had grown to bequite 
unruly. The clanitself was divided in part due to the fact that different 
factions had foughton opposing sides of the war. The growing mistrust and 
disdain for eachother only grew over the years, as did their arrogance.

So much so that once when they were visited by the great sages, 
Durvasa,Vashishta, Narada and Vishwamitra, they didn’t see anything wrong in a 
prankthat their young ones played on the sages. 

Samba, Krishna’s son fromJambavati dressed up as a pregnant woman and with his 
friends went up to thesages. The friends challenged the sages to predict if the 
‘lady’ would deliver a boy or a girl. Since they were noordinary sages, they 
saw through the trick and cursed that Samba would delivera lump of iron that 
would cause the death of the entire race.

The next morning, Sambadeveloped labour pains and delivered an iron mace. The 
onlookers were shocked and went up to Akrura, Krishna’s uncle foradvice. In his 
wisdom, Akrura suggested that the mace be crushed into a powderand that the 
powder be thrown into the sea. The Yadavasfollowed Akrura’s instructions, 
except, for a small piece that provedimpossible to break. So they threw it into 
the sea without crushing itand went on with their lives.

However, as with everything thrown into the sea, the mace powder was washed up 
onthe shoreline and from the soil, blades of a mysterious grass began to grow.

Several years later, the Yadavas had gathered on the shore for acelebration 
that got out of hand. Words were exchanged and soon everyone was ateach other’s 
throats. Noone was carrying any weapons so they began pulling out the blades of 
grassthat, by now, had grown tall. Using the blades as weapons, the 
Yadavaskilled each other, bringing an end to an entire race.

Gandhari’s curse was finally coming true. Krishna, who had foreseen allof this, 
had gone away to a nearby forest to meditate and await his turn.

You see, even as the mace powder had been washed on to the shore, the part of 
the mace that wasn’t crushed was swallowed by a fish. 

That fish was caught by ahunter who fashioned an arrow out of it and several 
years later, unbeknownst tohim, was in the same forest that Krishna was lying 
in. He mistook Krishna’s feet that were sticking out of a bush for a deerand 
shot the arrow that dealt the fatal blow to the incarnation of Vishnu.

When he discovered what he’d done, the hunter was distraught and beggedKrishna 
for forgiveness. Krishnaconsoled him and assured him that he was, in fact, 
waiting for his death.Confused, the hunter asks why, if the lord knew of him, 
was hewaiting at that exact spot. Krishna explains that in his previous lifethe 
hunter was Vali and had sought permission from Rama to kill him in his 
nextlife. 

And so it was that Vali avenged his own death and Krishna’s time on earthcame 
to an end.
