The Symbolism Of Smoking

The Symbolism of Smoking The planning commission is deciding to cut raise import duties on all smoking-products in order to magnify good changes into the society brought about by the anti smoking law. However, the subtle, yet stable, symbolism between smoking cigars and pipes and a few virgin heights of success is untouched of any literature or epistolary yet. This article tries to fill this gap by drawing out a few such metaphors and pay the author's humble reverence to smoke and cigars, as the all new anti smoking law seems to make all smoking products, things of the past. Keywords : René Magritte, Pennsylvania's law in effect from 11 September, Cuban Crafters.

A

lbeit, it's hard to pull out any order of symbolism from the painting titled "The Treachery of Images" by the Belgium artist René Magritte's, who was celebrated in mid 1950s for his fantastic imagery and incongruous juxtaposition, that exhibit's a semi-arched pipe but carries a script 'Leci n'est pas une pipe'-translated as "This is not a pipe", there is, then again, a rich anthology of great emblematic combinations of sovereign pipes, cigars (informally) and tobacco, with some of the world's feted and incredible human fables, that surely translates to much higher orders of truth that any public law, whether Pennsylvania's law to ban smoking in most public places or the Indian contemporary smoking ban law from the D-day, can explain. Tobacco, cigarettes and of course cigars, whose Caribbean history is older than most civilizations today, record a testimony of being a silent and incessant contributor to some of the world greatest triumphs. Two such fables, and perhaps the most admired ones through out the annals of the world history, are William Shakespeare with his clay pipe and the man with the relativistic eyes, Albert Einstein with his signature ones that poke unintentionally from every passport to calendar size graffiti of him. Ironically, If one go by an international survey that intone a fact that tobacco (with due respect to sovereign cigar), takes away their masters 14 years earlier, than those who don't hold a smoking pipe, then I guess that the world missed it by just that much number of years. Had it not been so, Albert Einstein could have filled the still greatly enigmatic loopholes in the Grand unified theory, isn't it?. From ages then and after, the research continued, and so as the use of the cause of it. SMOKE IS KING : Tobacco smoking now, is currently by far the most commemorated form of smoking and is practiced by more than a billion masse in different human cultures and societies. It's indeed proven in several contemporary research analysis that the '4000+ chemical containing flame-stick' consumption projection has crossed subtle boundaries of enjoyment and style-insignia to now enjoy a cult status collateral to, if not broader than, time-honored civic intakes of dailies like tea, coffee and in fact a civilized combination of cigarettes and Cold drinks (with that capital 'C') has gone epidemic, at least I have seen my students taking deep night stresses for semesters and projects amid avidly respecting such nicotine stimulants for carrying the tradition of being hard code nocturnal, I suppose. In India, the history of smoking and its gradual adaptations are entirely different from its western counterparts. The latter, throwing an annual obituary of about 4.3L deaths, take it owing to their hard pressing deadlines, while we do it for a plethora of divergent occasions. From busting out stresses to portray manhood, as a casual puffer to an edacious chain smoker, we have it all, and some, who can't rob a bank, consume just for an adventure. Some of the earlier results of one of my unzipped research about smoking and tobacco effects on youth, are such that those who take first, continue in absence of a strong compelling motivational force while those who are caught early in hideouts, feel guilty and abandon fast, never to taste again. The motivation can have alternate sources, from family or from outside. Fortunately, i can mention now, 'or sources from your government also'. The recent decision to completely outlaw smoking on all public places is good news, at least for those who don't want to die 14 years earlier as a passive smoker. While one may not be sure about whether the Center's or ITC stand on seeking adjudication over Chief Justice Balakrishnan's decision of completely banning smoking in public places (although much debate is on defining what are public places) from the 'D-day', although that could strongly re-iconize our image as a WHO potential member, but two things are for sure. First, that our judiciary seems to have finally genesis-ed a way to glorify the notion of 'Cigarette smoking is injurious to health', and second, with full reverence to the Gandhi Year 2008, that the Mahatma still breath around us like a father, who constantly register what we buy from our surplus pocket money, a father untouched of any law and unparalleled of any celebrated human chronicle. Hookah statistics, however, i excluded from my research. Not because of that small 0.5 nicotine figure, but because of it's not-so-easy availability inside most city corners, except for some flaunt decorated hookah bars and

its existence at public waiting places. Traditionally, Hookah is an Indian gift, transported by time into Europe, South Africa and Arab countries like Israel. The name, with stressed 'oo' as you might pronounce it, however acquired its omni-status during British dominions. As such it can easily be located in multiple frequencies in any of the viceroy's or governor general's Memoirs. Hookah, infact has a more fascinating story than any of its other look-a-likes. Besides Gloves and robe once worn by Muhammad Ali and Thomas Jefferson's self-invented desk, The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, that preserve over 3.2 million worshipped objects also defends one of the Einstein's signature tobacco pipes, that he had given to his secretary Gina Plunguian, as a souvenir, few years after the second World War. My Reverence to 'legendary flames' : Smoking history and their symbolic benefits transcend to much more than just glorious writing, incredible discoveries or plays. Smoke the experience of Cuban Crafters or of Shakespeare's Vintage Cigar Lines and they will shortly transform you into a harried, stressed out writer's image something that is hard to change after, and something you can preferably buy instead of long plagiarism acts against you. And you can safely take the freedom of the darker side of the law - 'say no to flames at public places', to smoke 'personnel', away from all your social extensions, cigarette a few and finish your epistolaries!. Long after you have kicked the bucket but it can help you get the Best of the Booker. From Albert Einstein's pipe to Marilyn Monroe Cigarette Case Lighters worth around $10, or Nat Sherman Hamptons, that never really pack a punch but are great on the golf course, you can easily purchase your collection from boxdata.net. I am feeling of collecting my own, of course not to use or nor to think to competing against Park Lane Tobacconist1 of Clifton Park NY, but to give a last reverence to something that we should leave but should never forget because once upon a time, you see, 'Smoke was king'.
