Be aware of Mega Calamities ahead!For instance,kolkata and rest of Bengal gets the shocks and aftershocks so often as never before.
Mind you,the calamities would not stop within the Himalayan zone nor within the coastline.
Media reports dilutes the crisis and reports only that an earthquake of moderate intensity of 5.6 on the
Richter Scale rocked Assam, Meghalaya, West Bengal
besides Bhutan today leaving three injured and a lion
sculpture of an ancient temple damaged.
Free Market crimes against Humanity and Nature is the real scale of the magnitude of the man made calamities!
Even amidst these shocks and aftershocks we may not see environment consciousness whatsoever in metros including Kolkata,New Delhi,Mumbai,Chennai,Bangalore or Ahmedabad! The humanity is all about indiscriminate urbanization and industrialization added with suicide infrastructure of nuclear reactors,big dams and business complex of every kind at the cost of mangrove,green and water bodies.
Humanity has to pay for that.
Humanity bleeds and we happen to be deprived of senses to feel it.
Tsunami, Kedar Water Tsunami and Nepal mega earthquake followed by scores of aftershocks have not changed the disastrous ways of business friendly governance of fascism.
Absolute Power Boom and Boom Boom religious nationalism has inflicted humanity.
El Nino terror heralding drought was an excuse for SENSEX IPL which is followed by Monsoon converting into DOOB countrywide.
The ruling class and caste hegemony is not concerned with the plight of the agrarian masses.Neither it is concerned with the future of humanity and civilization as it seems lotus of darkness blooming on every inch of land misused for moneymaking at the cost of harvesting.
They are not just rewriting history for ethnic cleansing with maximum venom of Apartheid against Non Aryan demography worldwide,in fact,they happen to be engaged in creation of calamities one after one to streamline the money machines and guillotines undermining the indigenous economy.
This unchallenged ownership of landscape,this absence of land reforms and finally this changing pattern of land use destroying green and water bodies do herald mega calamities ahead with greater slump than the great Recession 1930 resultant in Famine in Bengal and China.
Rulers in New Delhi would not recognize the Red Alert as they happen to be saffron blind not they would care as the culture of genocide is all about depopulation and certainly,calamities used for that cause.
Ironically,calamities spares no religious place,nor the gods and goddesses.Nepal and Uttarakhand proved it time and again.
Some day,the great Himalayas would blast or the all the oceans would boil,so that the world on fire would shape in a Birnom forest to kill the clan of Macbeth!

I cannot taint with fear. What's the boy Malcolm? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Was he not born of woman? The spirits that know | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
All mortal consequences have pronounced me thus: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
'Fear not, Macbeth; no man that's born of woman | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Shall e'er have power upon thee.' Then fly, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Next: Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 4 ___________ Explanatory Notes for Act 5, Scene 3 From Macbeth. Ed. Thomas Marc Parrott. New York: American Book Co. (Line numbers have been altered.) __________ Macbeth, who has been absent from the stage for some time, reappears in this scene. The student will note at once that he is in a different mood from that which characterized him in the earlier acts. He is no longer disturbed by "terrible dreams" and seeking to lull them by the perpetration of acts of violence. On the contrary, he relies so fully on the witches' prediction that not even the revolt of his thanes and the approach of the English army alarm him. Nevertheless he is restless, imperious, and gloomy. He has obtained all that he sought to win and is confident of the future, and yet he knows all happiness has gone out of his life. 1. reports, of the revolt of his subjects. 3. taint, be infected. 5. all mortal consequences, the future of all men. 5. me, the indirect object of "pronounced." The line contains a feminine ending before the caesura and a trisyllabic fourth foot. 8. English epicures. The hardy Scotch despised the luxurious manners of their English neighbours. 11. loon, fool, a characteristically Scottish term of abuse. 12. goose look, look of foolish fear. 15. lily-liver'd, cowardly. 15. patch, fool. 20. behold, Macbeth interrupts his speech here to call Seyton again. Perhaps he would have added some such phrase as "these cowards around me." 20, 21. This push ... now, this struggle, i.e. the approaching battle, will give me peace forever, or will at once push me from my throne. 21. disseat, dethrone. 22. way of life, course of life, or simply, life. 27. breath, flattery. 30. The unaccented syllable is wanting in the first foot of this line. 43. oblivious, causing forgetfulness. 47. Throw physic, etc. Macbeth turns impatiently from the doctor. If "physic" can do nothing, if the cure for such a sickness as Lady Macbeth's lies in the power of the patient only, Macbeth scorns the medical art. He, too, has been troubled by "thick-coming fancies," but he means to seek relief from them in action, not in a doctor's prescription. 48. staff, baton. 50. Come, sir. Probably addressed to the servant who is buckling on Macbeth's armour. 50. dispatch, be quick. 50, 51. cast The water, inspect the urine. This was an Elizabethan method of diagnosis. 52. purge ... health, cure it so that the land would be as healthy as before. 54. Pull't off. Another phrase addressed to the attendant. Macbeth's restlessness is shown in the way he orders his armour to be put on in haste, although there is no need of it, and then has it, or part of it, perhaps the helmet, taken off again. The phrase, "Bring it after me," in line 58, refers to the same piece of armour. 55. rhubard, senna. Plants from which purgative medicines are obtained. 61, 62. Were I ... here. The doctor is thoroughly frightened. Between his discovery of Lady Macbeth's terrible secrets and the rough contempt with which Macbeth has treated him, his one desire is to get out of this dangerous neighbourhood as quickly as possible. |
