Purification of soul in R.K. Narayan's, The Guide
Full text linkR.K. Narayan is one of the most well known novelist in India who writes in English. He is well known for his depiction and humourous writing on Indian society and culture. R.K. Narayan is essentially a storyteller, whose sensitive, well-drawn portrayals of twentieth-century Indian life were set mostly in the fictional South Indian town of Malgudi. Most of his novels capture many Indian traits while having a unique identity of their own. The Guide, which is also set in the town of Malgudi is written in a simple style, unpretentious, and witty with a unique flavour as if he was writing in the native mother tongue. The story seems to depict the everyday life of the simple characters in a rather amusing and comical way. But at the same time one can‘t help to wonder if R.K Narayan, who is hailed as a master story teller of India, has only the motive of entertaining and being comical in this book. I belief R.K Narayan has a wider and rather philosophical message beneath his work. From pages to pages of this novel, I noticed how the author holds dear to the age old philosophy that underlines the core of Hinduism –the law of Karma. Therefore, to understand The Guide,one needs to understand the theological aspects of Hinduism. This novel actually takes the readers on a journey of Hinduism and shows how the transition and purification of a Hindu soul takes place through the main character, Raju. Narayan shows how Raju, a character full of flaws goes through different phases in his life to redeem his sins and become a changed person towards the end
Informetrics on M. N. Srinivas
Full text linkM. N. Srinivas, the well known sociologist is widely recognised as architect of modern Indian sociology and social anthropology. His publications have been analysed by year, domain, authorship pattern, channels of communication used. Keywords, etc. The results indicate that the papers published by him are of a nature that qualify him to be a 'role model' for the younger generations to emulate.
By the end of 1995, Srinivas had to his credit 144 papers which, included 33 broad papers in sociology and anthropology; 18 papers in social change; 28 papers in village studies; 12 papers on religion; 17 papers on caste and 36 papers of general popular interest. The periods 1958-61 and 1974-77, when Srinivas was 38-41 and 58-61 years old. were his most productive periods with highest publication activity

Macro-scale matter wave generation in charged particle dynamics in a magnetic field, a consequence of quantum entanglement
No full textMatter wave interference effects on the macro-scale predicted by the author in charged particle dynamics in a magnetic field [R.K. Varma, Phys. Rev. E 64, 036608 (2001)], and observed subsequently [R.K. Varma, A.M. Punithavelu, S.B. Banerjee, Phys. Rev. E 65, 026503 (2002); R.K. Varma, S.B. Banerjee, Phys. Scr. 75, 19 (2007)] have been shown here to be an interesting consequence of quantum entanglement between the parallel and perpendicular degrees of freedom of the particle. Treating the problem in the framework of the inelastic scattering theory, it is shown that these macro-scale matter waves are generated in the ‘parallel’ degree of freedom as a modulation of the plane wave state of the particle along the field concomitantly with the excitation of Landau levels in the perpendicular degree of freedom in an inelastic scattering episode. We highlight here the role of quantum entanglement leading to the generation of this macro-scale quantum entity which has been shown to exhibit observable consequences. This case also exemplifies a situation exhibiting quantum entanglement on the macro-scale
