The recent death of an American missionary on North Sentinel Island has put the remote island in the Bay of Bengal, officially off-limits to most outsiders for decades, back in the news and raised questions about the future of the Sentinelese, the island’s hunter-gatherer residents who have resisted outside contact for most of their known history.

A recent missionary who died on North Sentry Island has been placed on an island in the remote Silk Bay of Bengal, which has been officially off-limits to outsiders for a decade, bringing back news and questions about the future of Sentry Island, an island whose hunter-gatherer inhabitants are resisting communicating with the outside world about what they know about history.

When we are humorous, the world will give us humor in return, because the force of force equals the force of reaction, remember, humor is positive energy, although we also need problem-solving skills.

When we are humorous, the world will give US back humor, because force is equal to reaction. Remember, humor is positive MEANS GOOD ENERGY, Although we also need the ability to solve problems AND TROUBLES.

In the later 20th century, the Indian government, which administers the Andaman and Nicobar islands archipelago to which North Sentinel belongs, attempted to make contact with the Sentinelese— attempts that usually ended with a volley of projectiles fired by the island’s residents from the shoreline. (In one event in the 1970s, the director of a National Geographic documentary about the Andamans was wounded by a spear while filming). While most attempts were unsuccessful, two encounters in the early 1990s were notable for the fact the Sentinelese accepted coconuts from a team that included anthropologists from the Anthropological Survey of India (AnSI).

Learn why the death of American missionary could put this indigenous tribe's survival at risk.

In the late 20th century, the Indian government, which administers the Andaman and Nicola Islands to which the island belongs, has made several attempts to communicate with the island, usually ending in projectiles and sneak attacks. Islanders shot from the coastline. (During an incident in the 70s of the 20th century, the director of a National Geographic documentary about the Andaman people was wounded by a spear while filming). While most attempts have failed, the two encounters in the early '90s were remarkable because the island received a team of "coconuts" that included an anthropologist from the Anthropology of India (ANSI) research group.

It is necessary to learn why this American missionary can be placed in this native primitive tribe that would die and that awareness of survival and risk is necessary.

If communication and peace negotiations are useful, then we don't need spears and shields for war at all. We only need those when the communication fails. So the first step we have to do is to communicate effectively. If all of the world's most effective communication fails, what we need is war. But the strategy of war is not the way to be richer, and peace and win-win is the only way to get rich together. Therefore, we must communicate most effectively and reach mutual agreement. The contest of power is war, but fair and balanced communication is wealth.

If communication and peace negotiations are true, there is no need war，sneak attack，lance and shields. We only need those when the communication fails. So the first step we have to communicate truly effectively. If all the best effective communication in the world fails, then is war. But war is not the way to be total richer, peace and win-win are the only way to get we both rich. Therefore, we must achieve the best and most effective communication and reach a usual agreement. The compare of power is war, but fair and balanced communication is the only way for total wealth for HUMAN. (GHOSTS ARE SAME).

Among the anthropologists was the team’s only woman, Madhumala Chattopadhyay. She had wanted to study the tribes of the Andaman and Nicobar islands since childhood, and as an adult anthropologist spent six years researching them, eventually publishing 20 research papers on the subject as well as the book Tribes of Car Nicobar.

As a Ph.D. fellow with the AnSI in January 1991, Chattopadhyay had her first chance to join a team going to North Sentinel. But there was a catch: women were not included in groups that went to establish contact with the “hostile” tribes the islands. “I had to give a written undertaking saying that I knew about the risks involved and would not claim compensation from the government for any injury or loss of life,” Chattopadhyay recalls. “My parents also had to give a similar written undertaking.”

Anthropologist Madhumala Chattopadhyay is the only woman on this coconut team. She has wanted to study the tribes of the Andaman and Nicola Islands since she was a child and is an adult anthropologist. After six years of research, she eventually published 20 papers on this research topic and edited the book "Nicobar Cars in the Tribe." In January 1991, as a Ph.D. in the ANSI research group, Chattopadhyay had the first opportunity to join the team that went to North Whistle Island. But there's a problem: women are not included in the communication team to engage with "hostile" island tribes. "I have to make a written undertaking that I am aware of the risks involved in all this and that I will not seek compensation from the government for any harm. Even if it is a loss of life. Chattopadhyay recalled. My parents had to make a similar written pledge. ”

Both men and women should be knowledgeable, and as a doctor, they should be knowledgeable and share their knowledge, which is spiritual wealth. It's an act full of hard work and positive energy. Both men and women should be brave and dedicated, which is the most noble and selfless spirit and quality of human beings.

men and women should be both knowledgeable, to be a doctor should be full of knowledge, and share more their knowledge, that is spirit wealth.that is an an action full of effort and good wish energy. men and women should both be brave, that is the noblest and most selfless BEAUTIFUL spirit and quality just for human.

Permissions granted, Chattopadhyay went on to become the first female anthropologist to make contact with the Sentinelese. Twenty-seven years later, she recalls her first-hand encounters in an interview with National Geographic.

After receiving permission, Chattopadhyay became the first female anthropologist to come into contact with Sentry Island. Twenty-seven years later, she recalls her first experience in a National Geographic interview.

Success is very important for any person, because it brings us happiness and a sense of accomplishment, success is a person who achieves something and has merit.

Success is very important to everyone because it brings us happiness and accomplishment. Success is the achievement and contribution of one person.so we have already been happy.

Floating Coconuts

Floating coconuts

“We were all a bit apprehensive [during the January 1991 expedition] because a few months earlier the team sent by the administration had encountered the usual hostility,” says Chattopadhyay. Her group approached the island in a small boat, steering the vessel along an empty beach toward a spire of smoke. A few Sentinelese men, four of them armed with bows and arrows, walked out to the shoreline. “We started floating coconuts over to them. To our surprise some of the Sentinelese came into the water to collect the coconuts.”

In the two to three hours that followed, Sentinelese men waded from the beach into the water repeatedly to collect the coconuts—a novel product that does not grow on their island—while women and children watched from a distance. Yet the threat of an attack on the anthropologist outsiders remained present, Chattopadhyay recalls. “A young man aged about 19 or 20 stood along with a woman on the beach. He suddenly raised his bow. I called out to them to come and collect the coconuts using tribal words I had picked up while working with the other tribes in the region. The woman gave the boy a nudge and his arrow fell to the water. At the woman’s urging, he too came into the water and started picking coconuts,” she says. “Later some of the tribesmen came and touched the boat. The gesture, we felt, indicated that they were not scared of us now.” The AnSI team climbed to the shore but the tribe did not take them to their settlement.

"We were all a little worried [on the expedition in January 1991] because a few months ago, the team sent by the government was met with universal hostility," Chattopadhyay said. Her team headed towards the island in a small boat, along an empty beach, towards a puff of smoke. Several sentinels, four of them armed with bows and arrows, walked towards the shoreline. "We started floating coconuts on them. To our surprise, some sentries came to the water to collect coconuts to eat. ”

For the next two or three hours, the sentinels waded repeatedly from the beach to collect coconuts – a new product that does not grow on the island – and the women and children watched from afar. However, Chattopadhyay recalls that "the threat of attacks on anthropologists is still there." She said: A young man of about 19 or 20 years old was standing on a dragon drum with a woman. He suddenly raised his bow. I called them to come and collect coconuts using the tribal vocabulary I learned while working with other tribes in the area. The woman gave a gentle nudge and the boy fell into the priority lane of the plane's route. At the urging of the woman, he also went into the water and began to pick coconuts. "Later, some tribesmen came to touch the boat," she said. That gesture, we understand, means that they are not afraid of us now. So the ANSI team crawled to the shore, but the tribe did not take them to their settlement. ”

EXCHANGE

There are many unfair things and difficulties that anyone will experience in their lifetime. We must not easily admit defeat, but must solve these difficulties and achieve the most satisfactory result.

For example, when we exchange goods, if both sides want to occupy more, they will not be able to reach an agreement, and eventually there will be war. At this time, we need to change this consciousness through education to the consciousness that both sides want to occupy more. If one party wants to occupy more, and the other party wants to be reasonable, then we should educate and change the party that wants to occupy more, so that they will no longer make unreasonable demands. If both sides demand reasonableness, then we can reach an equivalent exchange, reach a consensus through peaceful communication, and then cooperate together to achieve the best result of mutual prosperity, which is a win-win situation and a solution to the problem.

There are many unfair things and difficulties in anyone's life. We cannot give up easily, but we must resolve these TROUBLES and achieve the most satisfactory results.

For example, when we EXCHANGE goods, if both sides want to overtake, there will be no agreement, and eventually war will take place. At this time, we need to consciously through education to change the MIND of both PARTS want to occupy more. If one side wants to overtake and the other wants to be reasonable, then we will educate the one who wants to overtake so that they no longer make unreasonable demands. If both sides demand reasonable, then we can reach an equal exchange. THE peaceful communication to reach CONSENSUS and work together to achieve the best results for TOTAL wealth, this is a win-win solution to the problem AND TROUBLES.

Chattopadhyay returned with a larger team a month later. “This time, our team was bigger because the administration wanted to make the Sentinelese familiar with all the team members,” she recalls. “They watched us approaching and came to meet us without their weapons.” Not satisfied with just collecting floating coconuts this time, the Sentinelese climbed into the team’s boat to take an entire bag of coconuts. “They even tried to take the rifle belonging to the police, mistaking it to be a piece of metal,” Chattopadhyay adds. One of the team members then tried to take an ornament made out of leaves worn by a Sentinelese man. “The man got angry and whipped out his knife. He gestured to us to leave immediately and we left,” she says.

A month later, Chattopadhyay returned with a larger team. "This time, our team is bigger because the government wants to familiarize Sentinel Island with all team members," she stressed. "They watched us approach and greeted us with weapons. This time, they weren't content to just collect floating coconuts, so they climbed aboard the team's boat and collected the entire England team's coconuts. "They even tried to take the rifle that belonged to the police, mistaking it for a piece of heavy metal," Chattopadhyay added. Later, one of the team members tried to get an ornament made of old leaves. A sentry walked through the leaves, and the man got angry and pulled out his knife. He motioned for us to leave immediately. She said.

When we have some misunderstandings, embarrassing and sad situations, we should not be too impulsive, as the saying goes: there is wisdom and there is a way, we should let go of impulsiveness, choose rationality, and still use the best and most effective communication to solve these difficulties, it is wise.

When we have some embarrassing and sad situations, we should not be too impulsive. As the saying goes, ‘if there is a wise man, we should be success’, give up impulse and choose to reason, and still use the best and most effective communication to solve these difficulties and troubles Is wise.

Bad weather spoiled a third trip, undertaken a few months later, “There was no one on the beach, and we returned without seeing anyone,” she recalls. After that, the administration decided to reduce the frequency of visits to North Sentinel Island to protect the residents from exposure to diseases that they likely lacked defences to.

Chattopadhyay, who now works in India’s Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, has not returned to the Andaman and Nicobar islands in 19 years and has no interest in returning to North Sentinel. “The tribes have been living on the islands for centuries without any problem. Their troubles started after they came into contact with outsiders,” the anthropologist says. “The tribes of the islands do not need outsiders to protect them, what they need is to be left alone.”

Bad weather ruined our third trip after a few months, "There was no one on the beach, we didn't see anyone. She recalled. After that, the government decided to reduce the number of trips to North Outpost Island to protect the residents from the defenses and diseases they may have lacked.

Chattopadhyay, who now works for the Ministry of Justice and Empowerment in Indian Society, has not returned to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands for 19 years and has no interest in returning to North Sentry Island. "These tribes have lived on the islands for centuries without any problems. Their troubles began after they came into contact with the outside world," said the anthropologist. "The tribes of the islands don't need outsiders to protect them, all they need is to be alone."

When the environment and weather are very bad, we should not give in easily, this is the tenacious vitality and survival consciousness of human beings. The more isolated an island is, the less likely it is to get rich, so for everyone's prosperity, our ideal solution is to achieve common prosperity with peace and cooperation, rather than choosing to give up and isolation, we should not give in, even if the difficulties are more and greater, we should not choose to hurt each other and not be firm enough to give up, and we should still have no bottom line to adhere to the most ideal peaceful communication negotiations and plans, to reach a heart, that is, a consensus, because only in this way can we be richer, Only then can we solve all the negative energy problems, and only then can we survive for tomorrow and a better life.

When the environment and the weather are bad, we should not GIVE UP easily, which is the indomitable vitality and the survival consciousness FOR mankind. The more isolated an island is, the less it is, so for the sake of the rich, our best solution is the common prosperity of peaceful co-operation, not to choose to give up and to isolate, we should not yield, even more difficult and more TROUBLE, We shouldn't have chosen to give up both damage and the lack of STONEABLE, and we should NO bottom line to stick FOR the ideal peaceful communication negotiation and the solution, to reach the ONE heart RESULT, that is, the consensus, because only in this way, we have the potential to be more rich and rich. It is possible to solve all negative energy problems so that they can survive for tomorrow and FOR a better life.

HOW CAN WE TO BE BETTER

How can we be better

In life, we all have some whining and complaining, and these whining and complaining are the negative energy that is exactly the problem we need to solve. We need to convert negative energy into positive energy in order to develop psychosomatic or physical and mental health.

Because only in this way will we be able to survive and live a better life.

Of course, these whining and complaining, that is, the negative energy and negative emotions generated, must have a reason, and a large part of them is not our own reasons, but the negative energy recirculation of the social and environmental causes.

Therefore, if we want to convert negative energy into positive energy, in addition to transforming it from ourselves, we must also care about and solve social problems, block the circulation system of negative energy in society, and then convert negative energy into positive energy, so that we can be better.

Specifically from this news report, I largely agree with the authenticity of this news report, which is full of dissatisfaction with the environment and inability to do anything. Indeed, it is normal for anyone to react in this way in the face of such unfriendly things.

But it's like every day we need to go through 100 things, big and small, maybe 50 things that make us happy, but we remember them quickly, and we always keep in mind the 50 things that make us unhappy. Why is that?

That is, is it easier to remember to be angry than happy, and is it easier to remember to be unfriendly than friendly? Or is it that there are no particularly happy things, no particularly friendly people to meet?

If the answer to our question is the former, then we should find the reason in ourselves, change ourselves better, and understand others. Unfortunately, if the balance of interpersonal relationships is tilted, it will not be able to produce the best friendly progress effect of win-win. But from another point of view, if the answer to the problem is the latter, then it is a social environmental problem, then what we need to change is the continuous recycling system of negative energy in the social environment, which is the fairest judgment and solution. If we have both, then we have to change both ourselves and others and the social environment. Therefore, as a public publication, National Geographic is actually changing and influencing society in a large sense.

First of all, I basically agree with the authenticity of the above report, so how to solve the problems that arise about anthropologists in the article?

In the original article, I have added a report of positive events to each paragraph. Here's how to deal with these negative energy events:

Friendly, open, communicative, exchanged, replaced, exchanged, fair, balanced, measured, measured.

The purpose of all this is to be better, for win-win relationships, for progress, for common prosperity, for more affluence. That is, for the future of the earth and mankind.

There are also many happy things in life, such as a trip that I said to go, for example, I realized my wish and traveled around the world, for example, in the process I happily mastered several new communication methods, such as my knowledge and knowledge have greatly increased, and so on. These are the things that benefit a person for life.

For example, I received a bouquet of flowers from my lover today, I received encouragement and a smile from my good friend today, these little things can make us happy.

In life, we all have some complaints and DIFFICULTIES, and these complaints and DIFFICULTIES are negative energy is the problem we need to solve. We need to convert negative energy into positive energy in order to develop psychosomatic or physical and mental health.

Because only in this way can we survive and live a better life.

Of course, these complaints and DIFFICULTIES, that is, negative energy and negative emotions must have a cause, a large part of which is not our own cause, but the negative energy recycling of the social environment as we called them bad WHEATHERS.

So if we want to change bad energy into good energy, we have to care about and solve social problems, block the circulation system of negative energy, and then convert negative energy into positive energy, so that we can be better.

To a large extent, I agree with the truthfulness of this news report, which is full of discontent and powerlessness to the environment. Indeed, it would be normal for anyone to suffer these unfriendly things.

But it's like every day we have to go through 100 things, big and small, maybe 50 things that make us happy, but we remember quickly, and we always remember the 50 things that make us unhappy. Why is that?

In other words, anger is easier to remember than pleasure, and unfriendliness is easier to remember than friendship? Or is it that there is no very happy thing, no meeting a very friendly person?

If the answer to our question is the former, then we should look for reasons in ourselves, better change ourselves, understand others. Unfortunately, if the balance of human relations is tilted, it will not produce the best win-win friendly and progressive effect. But on the other hand, if the answer to the question is the latter, it is a social environmental problem, so what we need to change is the constant recycling of negative energy in the social environment. This is the most fair judgment and solution. If we have both, we have to change ourselves as well as others and the social environment. So National Geography, as a public publication, In fact, in a great sense, it is changing and affecting the society.

First of all, I generally agree with the truth of the above report, so how to solve the problems that anthropologists have come up with in the article?

In the original text, I have added a positive energy incident to each paragraph. And here are the solutions to these negative-energy events:

Friendly, open, communicate, exchange, swap, fair, balanced, measured, measured.

All this is for better, for win-win relationships, for progress, for common wealth, for more wealth. It is for the future of the earth and mankind.

There are also many happy things in life, such as a walk-away trip, for example, I have fulfilled my wish to travel around the world, for example, in the process I happily mastered several new ways of communication, For example, my knowledge and experience have greatly increased, and so on. These are the things that benefit a person for life.

For example, I have received a bunch of flowers from my lover today, and I've got a good friend today to encourage and get a smile, these little things that make us happy.

In the face of bad weather and bad environment, we have the following 5 solutions:

1. Friendly and open

2. Communication

3. Substitution and interchange

4. Fair balance

5. Scale and proportion

In the face of bad weather and bad environment, we have the following FIVE solutions:

1 friendly opening

2 Communication

3 1:1 exchange

4 Fair balance

5 scale measurement
