Propeller & Universal joint
Awesome concept π
Modernity had infused an attitude of ‘mockery’ in a few minds, and they used the phrase “bullock cart people” to refer to the ancient Indians. The irony is this very phrase describes the ‘life’ of these fanciful people, and the joke is they are ignorant of ‘life’ itself mocking at themπ
Yes, a bullock cart is pulled/pushed USING an external force applied to it(the bullocks are the force, the power, the fuel, the energyπ). The cart moves the wheels, not the wheels itself moving the cartπ.
And a modern vehicle uses internalised power applied directly to the wheels and when the wheels are turned by a propeller ( transmission of power) the vehicle moves!)
When a bullock cart takes a turn,
the wheel outer to the circular direction is ‘forced’ to rotate a larger distance π. The wheel at the inner side compensates by rotating in a reverse direction to ‘OFFSET’ the difference in difference travelled due to turn. This reversal of inner wheel is solved by placing an Universal joint to the dhaft connecting the two wheels. A marvel of invention in engineering π
My idle mind( again a phrase used to refer to the idleness “an idle mind is a Devil's workshop!”π), just tried to “look” at a bullock cart and a car. The most fundamental aspect occured in that idleness( actually a “still/silent mind” in the desi_sense, of a meditative mind, which “allows” the intellect to ‘see’π.
1.the car is driven by internal fuel. The cart gets pushed by external force (situation decides. If the bullock decides to turn left, the driver HAS to use a whipπ).
2. The 2 wheels dont ‘cooperate’ with each other in a bullock cart, unless the direction is a ‘smooth_forward + straight line’.
Today's human_life is SITUATION driven. π
Then, i turned to look at the ‘available' data about the lifestyles of ancients!!π. They channelised the life_force inside them, and that force decided the direction. The mind and the body, coordinated in synchronicity with the internalised fuel, its transmission chain, mechanism, design, purpose and even the ‘road_map’ π. WHAO!!!
Forget the whims of the bullock(situation external) even the wheels( body and mind) OBLIGED to the superior intellect, instead of each wheel the body and the mind, yielding to its own eccentric cravings, whims etc, neither aligning with the situation, nor with the internal road_map built in π
I was very hesitant to share this ‘funny and comical’ looking thought all alongπ
But 2 things internalised my ‘motive_force’( like the ‘e.m.f’ in physics π). My personal experience with the tools(ancient), for sophisticating the vehicle Equipped with body and mind….and the fact that i am aged enough to know that my time is up now and it makes sense to motivate a rare few who can afford to use their own sense of Discrimination to decide which of the 2 is worth working upon towards_sophistication???( The precious gadget called human body and mind, with its H.I./human intellect? Or, the poorly fabricated gadgets without its life, using A.I….???). The experience of ‘life’ gets decided accordingly π. External gadgets are excellent slaves, but devilish as our_Mastersπ. Choice is ours!
A propeller, yours,

Post script:
This after_thought is a tribute to my dear kid_age friend, who happens to be a renowned Surgeon, often assisting his spouse, a gynaecologist π. He asked me a question (which can occur ONLY to a beautiful mindπ). He asked “why does the baby want to come out?”( It took me an hour plus, to supply ‘scientifically' oriented reasons for a spiritual phenomenon π)
He summed up “oh! That's the way the soul( spirit/atma/etc) manifests!!” I thanked him for his feedback/response. Today, i was reminded of his question π. Internalised energy power, deciding to ‘move’ the body and its accessories out of the womb πππ.
