Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Equalizing / Distributing / Transferring , Pain ?




And , may be pleasure as well  ?



A familiar dialogue in my home goes :

Wife :
I have a terrible headache
Me :
Take an aspirin tablet
Wife :
It has bad side-effects
Me :
I wish I can touch your forehead and let your pain flow into my hand
Wife :
Why don’t you invent such a mechanism ? . It will equalize pain and pleasure , among all the inhabitants of the Earth and ( even ) reduce poverty
Me :
How come ?
Wife :
Millions of jobless poor people will be ready to “ accept “ the pains suffered by rich people , for a fee { Mild Cold for $ 10 / Migraine Headache for $ 50 / Stomach Ache for $ 100 …etc } . Got the idea ?
Me :
Oh ! I see . A simple mechanism to “ transfer “ the pains being suffered by those 1 % of the World’s people who control 58 % of world’s wealth , to the other 99 % of the population , for a price ?
Wife :
And the beauty of my suggestion is : along with the transfer of pain , that wealth-inequality will also get slightly corrected and our government would not have to worry about skilling 500 million youth in 5 years and create 120 million jobs in 10 years ( or else face prospect of losing the 2019 general election ! )
Me :
Hey ! This is revolutionary and far better than “ Organ Donation “ from a dead person to a living person . Here , it is from one “ living “ to another “ living “ – and without waiting your turn ! And, from / to , your person of choice !
Wife :
Now don’t be surprised if many Start-Ups come forward to launch web sites such as :
online E-Com platforms for Buyers and Sellers , quite like Job Portals and Dating / Marriage Sites
Me :
And that would enable our poor people to compete with poor people everywhere for a share of this very lucrative market . But the best part is :

·         Technology is advancing at such a rapid rate that these “ transfers “ ( of Pain and Pleasure ), can be done remotely across oceans , using Holograms / Hepatic Devices / Brain Computer Interfaces /  VR headsets / whatever else you can think of

·         Such “ Buying / Selling “ of “ Services “ cannot be regulated by WTO ( free for all )

·         There can be no levy of any “ Import Duty / Dumping Duty “ on cross-border transfers


Of course , If Shri Arun Jaitleyji comes to know about this possibility , he may impose a nominal GST of 1 % on such “ Sales Incomes “ ! Except that he would not know from whom to collect the tax since the Seller pays and the Buyer ( of pain ) receives the payment !

Of course , it would work if I am “ Selling ( sharing ? ) pleasure “ for a price with those millions of “ depressed ( but rich ) persons “ of the World except what “ pleasures “ can the poor sell to the rich ?

Wife :
I think you are reading too much of what Peter Diamandis’s  ( http://www.diamandis.com/ )
and  Ray Kurzweil’s ( http://www.kurzweilai.net/ ) ,  writings  about future
Why don’t you look up : https://www.srichinmoylibrary.com/ie-5 : , to realize that it was our very
 own Babar who was the first to invent this technology of “ Pain Transfer “ ?

Poor  Guy !  If we had a Patent Office then , he would have minted a ton of Gold Mohurs !

Me :
If you have any doubt about my prediction , read :
