“It was over 40 years ago, I never saw them again. Now we were 

moving on to Trinidad in early 70's in the West Indies at the 

University of the West Indies. My Ph.D. supervisor distressed me and 

another Professor blocked a post-doctoral fellowship offered to me at 

an Ivy League school in US so I placed Brahmin curse on both.” 

“Have they suffered from you curse?” 

“I believe so, my supervisor could never fulfill his life-long 

dream of migrating to USA and the other Professor has retired without 

becoming the Dean of the faculty.” 

“And that entire outcome from your Brahmin curse.” 

“I would like to believe so.” 

“OK, keep going.” 

“Now, we are in USA; at my work place I have the misfortune of 

working with a supervisor for over 10 years. He was a refugee from Iran 

lived in India then came to US.  During the ten years, he refused 

giving me challenging projects. A case in point, a soil remediation 

project in San Diego required somebody with knowledge in soil chemistry 

like me with a Ph.D., and yet he hired an outside consultant with no 

knowledge in soils to do the job to keep me away from getting lime- 

light.  For this and several other misdeeds I placed a barrage of 

potent Brahmin curses on him that resulted him got fired.” 

“You believe that your curse caused him his job.” 

“Yes, I strongly believe because of my curse he lost his job 

and almost went to jail.” 

“Who was next on your curse list?” 

“Well, the fellow who replaced Mel was Bill; he was nice to me 

for three years until he learned on the job with a six figure salary 

and then railroaded me. I placed a potent Brahmin curse on him for his 

sin.” 

“How Bill doing know?” 

“He is still working at the same company.” 

“How your curse affected him if he is still working at the same 

company?” 

“My curse hovers around the recipients waiting to strike any 

time, it is matter of time.” 

“Has your curse backfired to hurt you?” 

“Well, I fell seriously ill several times, involved in car 

accidents, my 401K tanked twice and some of my investments went south 

for good.  I was not sure if these events were resulted from backfired 

curses I placed on others.  Knowingly or unknowingly I never caused any 

loss or mistreated others. So my conscience is clear.” 

“How about the doctor on whom you put a curse?” 

“A doctor used good name my father and brother built over 

several decades practicing medicine and yet extorted money from my 

mother to vacate the clinic.  I put a curse on the doctor to suffer the 

consequence of his greediness.” 

“If you have to single out, on whom you placed the worst curse?” 

“The curse I placed on Bill for railroading me.” 

“Do you wish a specific kind of loss when you place a curse?” 

“My curse is generic in nature; I neither have the power or 

intent to impose a specific punishment.  The purpose of my curse was to 

make them feel the same pain they inflicted on me by their unfair and 

discriminatory behavior, or to make them feel repentance for their 

dishonest acts.  It is up to god or superior being to administer my 

curse.  A curse is like a cell phone call; it goes up to the higher 

authority for authentication before it struck down the target like 

unmanned drones that strike the terrorists all of a sudden from 

nowhere.” 

“Is your curse is person specific or continue to effect family 

members?” 

“Strictly person specific unless the entire family involves in 

the conspiracy.” Juggernaut looked like a teacher explaining a concept. 

“What happens if the recipient of your curse is a Brahmin like 

you? Does a Brahmin curse on a Brahmin become ineffective?” 

“A curse is a curse. The recipient whether Brahmin or not has 

no power to neutralize the oncoming curse placed on them.” 

“Have you ever put a curse on your own relatives?” 

“Some of my relatives belittled me and throughout his life my 

father was taken advantage by many close relatives but I never brought 

myself to put a curse on them, I just couldn't.” Juggernaut looked 

helpless. 

“So you do draw a line.” 

“Sadly yes.” 

“Have you put a curse recently?” 

“Yes, I did put a curse on a woman from Wisconsin sub-rented a 

cottage from me in Hawaii and never paid her fair share and the 

landlord that stiffed me of my deposit money.” 

“Have you withdrawn your curse from anybody in the past?” 

“No, I never withdrew my curse once I put it nor I have the 

power to do it. I wait a long time sometimes years of suffering from 

their misdeeds before I put a curse on them, therefore my curses were 

well justified and final.” 

“OK, it is getting dark, time to go home,” said Dan and walked 

out only to return back into the office in a hurry. 

“I thought you left?” Juggernaut looked surprised. 

“My car has a flat tire; have you put a curse on me?” Dan gave 

a suspicious look. 

“Yes, a garden variety.” 

“Why, what I did to you?” 

“The 50 cent raises you gave me over the years was totally 

unjustified, I do lot of things around here you know, I could not do 

anything about it so I put a curse but requested a lighter version as a 

special case.” 

“I can't believe this,” Dan walked out to replace the tire and 

Juggernaut followed him to lend some help.
