The word "Akash" has its roots deeply embedded in Hindu Philosophy. As per the philosophy, there are 5 basic elements that the human body comprises. They are - Water(Jal), Earth(Prithivi), Fire(Agni), Wind(Vaayu) and finally Space(Akash). Space or Akash is also known as Ether or aether as mentioned above. It is that element that is not seen, felt, smelt, tasted or even heard. It is the element of our higher perceptional senses. It is the element of our astral selves. Akash gives the sense of a higher power. With space, it is implied as a 'higher being'. Akash is a well used name among Hinduism. Many people today still keep this name for its rich history and meaning.

[edit] Akaash Agarwal Akaash Agarwal Picture hastily captured on Amogh's mobile phone prior to his tragic death Born: 1992 (exact date unknown) New Delhi, India Died: 12 June 2007 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Occupation: Scientist, Experiment, Expiree

[edit] Early Life Akaash Agarwal was created in a laboratory at New Delhi,India, by Manjul Agarwal, a popular doctor famous for conducting experiments on little children. As soon as Akaash was created, there were rumblings in his stomach, and he started defecating uncontrollably (also known as explosive diarrhoea or UDD, Uncontrollable Defecation Disorder), much to the dislike of the public of New Delhi. Akaash had to be transported from his laboratory in India, as the public started invading the laboratory and throwing rotten eggs at Akaash, which made his condition (uncontrollable defecation) all the more serious. Therefore Manjul Agarwal decide to move to Sydney Australia, as the general public there are more considerate to personal problems. Akaash lived in Sydney for 14 years.

[edit] School Days At BHHS Being an experimenting tool, Akaash had to stay home more often than not, and that added to his unique condition (UDD) made sighting him at school an exhilarating and rare event. He had two science buddies, Braven Eshwaralingam and Amogh Ramesh, who went off into hysterical laughing fits whenever they saw him. He often got annoyed and displayed a bit of his flatulences which made them crack up even more. Akaash, despite his condition decided to go on the year 9 camp to Somerset, and over there suffered severe arthritic spasms on his face. Seeing his condition upon returning, Manjul Agarwal (father), prescribed complete rest for 15 days. Amogh, meanwhile got terribly worried and on the 14th day of his absence, believed Akaash was dead. Many people have heard Amogh saying:

Akaash has expired

and two of Amogh's science classmates, Jeffery Wong and Alexander Yang, found it absolutely hilarious. Akaash never returned to school and reports have confirmed him dead. Manjul used to say to the public, "Never give Akaash Cheese Pizza"

[edit] Death On Tuesday the 12th of June 2007, Manjul Agarwal addressed the public and confirmed Akaash's death.

It was a tragic incident. I woke up when I heard an explosion and my laboratory collapsed on me. Jumping up, I found Akaash lying motionless on a pool of diarrhoea, and his pants had been ripped apart. I listened to his pulse but there was none. I knew he was dead.

He came, He saw and He conquered the toilet.
