Ramayana in "cyber-language"

[Guest guest]

Dear bhakti-list members,

 

My son who is an avid inter-net surfer wants me to share with you all this

"new version" of Srimad Ramayanam that is doing the rounds on cyber-space.

It is a harmless piece of creative story-telling so please accept it as

such. Please do not take any offence. Children should be encouraged in these

little games as long as it is also a sort of celebration of

"bhagavath-vibhavam"

 

Here is the cyber-version of Ramayana:

 

 

>> >LAN, LAN ago, in the SYSTEM of I/O-dhya, there ruled

>> >a PROCESSOR named DOS-rat. Once he EXECUTED a great

>> >sacrifice PROGRAM after which his queens gave an

>> >OUTPUT of four SUNs - RAM, LSIman,BUG-rat and

>> >SED-rughana. RAM the eldest was a MICROCHIP with

>> >excellent MEMORY. His brothers, however, were only

>> >PERIPHERAL ICs.

>> >

>> >Once when RAM was only 16MB, he married princess

>> >'C'ta. 12 years passed and DOS-rat decided to INSTAL

>> >RAM as his successor. However, Queen CIE/CAE

>> >(Kayegayee), who was once offered a boon by DOS-rat

>> >for a life saving HELP COMMAND ,took this opportunity

>> >at the instigation of her BIOSed maid (a real

>> >plotter), and insisted that her son Bug-rat be

>> >INSTALLED and that RAM be BOOTED to the forest for 14

>> >years.

>> >

>> >At this cruel and unexpected demand, a SURGE passed

>> >thru DOS-rat and he collapsed, power-less.

>> >

>> >RAM agreed to LOG INTO forest and 'C'ta insisted to

>> >LOGIN with him. LSI-man was also resolved on LOGGING

>> >IN with his brother. The forest was the dwelling of

>> >SPARC-nakha, the TRANSISTOR of RAW-wan, PROCESSOR of

>> >LAN-ka. Attracted by RAM's stature, she proposed that

>> >he marry her. RAM, politely declined.

>> >Perceiving 'C'ta to be the SOURSE CODE of her

>> >distress, she hastened to kill her. Weeping,

>> >SPARC-nakha fled to LAN-ka, where RAW-wan, moved by

>> >TRANSISTOR's plight,approached his uncle MAR-icha.

>> >

>> >MAR-icha

>> >REPROGRAMED himself into the form of a golden stag and

>> >drew RAM deep into the forest. Finally, tired of

>> >chase, RAM shot the deer, who,with his last

>> >breath,cried out desperately for LSI-man in RAM's

>> >voice. Fooled by this VIRTUAL RAM SOUND,'C'ta urged

>> >LSI-man to his brother's aid. Catching the

>> >opportunity,RAW-wan DELINKED 'C'ta from her LIBRARY

>> >and changed her ROOT DIRECTORY to

>> >LAN-ka.

>> >

>> >RAM and LSI-man started SEARCHING for the missing

>> >'C'ta all over the forest. They made friendship with

>> >the forest SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR SU-greev and his

>> >powerful co-processor Ha-NEUMAN. SU-greev agreed to

>> >help RAM. SU-greev ordered his PROGRAMMERS to use

>> >powerful 'SEARCH' techniques to FIND the missing

>> >'C'ta. His PROGRAMMERS SEARCHED all around the

>> >INTER-NETworked forests. Many tried to 'EXCITE' the

>> >birds and animals

>> >not to forget the 'WEB CRAWLERS'(Insects) and tried to

>> >'INFO SEEK' something about 'C'ta. Some of them even

>> >shouted 'YAA-HOO' but they all ended up with 'NOT

>> >FOUND' MESSAGES.Several other SEARCH techniques proved

>> >useless. Ha-NEUMAN devised a RISKy TECHNOLOGY and

>> >used it to cross the seas at an astonishing CLOCK

>> >SPEED. Soon Ha-NEUMAN DOWNLOADED himself into LAN-ka.

>> >After doing some local SEARCH, Ha-NEUMAN found 'C'ta

>> >weeping under a TREE STRUCTURE.

>> >

>> >Ha-NEUMAN used a LOGIN ID (ring) to identify himself

>> >to 'C'ta. After DECRYPTING THE KEY, 'C'ta believed in

>> >him and asked him to send a STATUS_OK MESSAGE to RAM.

>> >Meanwhile all the raakshasa BUGS around 'C'ta captured

>> >Ha-NEUMAN and tried to DELETE him using

>> >pyro-techniques. But Ha-NEUMAN managed to spread

>> >chaos by spreading the VIRUS 'Fire'. Ha-NEUMAN happily

>> >pressed ESCAPE from LAN-ka and conveyed all the STATUS

>> >MESSAGES to RAM and SU-greev.

>>

>>RAW-wan decided to take the all powerful RAM head-on and prepared

>>for the battle.One of the RAW-wan's SUN(son) almost DELETED

>> >RAM & LSI-man with a powerful brahma-astra. But

>> >Ha-NEUMAN resorted to some ACTIVE-X gradients and

>> >REBOOTED RAM and LSI-man. RAM used the SOURCE CODE

>> >secrets of RAW-wan and once for all wiped out

>> >RAW-wan's presense on earth.

>>

>> >After the battle, RAM got INSTALLED in I/O-dhya and

>> >spreaded his MICRO SOFT WORKS and other USER FRIENDLY

>> >PROGRAMS to all USERS and every one lived happily everafter.
