the rama and the ramayana

       For the majority of indian population the most sought-after kind of societal arrangement would surely be "ramrajya". Ya there should be a society like that, because 'ramrajya' is in any sense better than todays society. But as far as the factor of perfection or 100 touch is concerned, "ramrajya" is also not spared. why? what was imperfect in bhagvan Rama? let me write point by point.

1. it is obvious that when a war is waged, thousands of lives are put at the death. So one has to have the strong reasons in justification of war before he wages it. In case of bhagvan Rama, the conspicuous reason was the kidnapping of godess seeta. But had the rama any reght to bring thousands of lives at the brink just for his beloved wife? True that the pride of the ayodhya was in question, but in that condition too was the war only option? I remember a plot from the movie "troy", wherein the enemy countries had their representatives fight(one from each) with each other and the winner representative would win the war for his country. with the cost of only one life the war was over. couldn't rama use the same tactic? So morally the war was the bad option. Now if i suppose that the war could be justifiable morally, than also logically the war was the bad option because it did not guarantee seeta. Was there any guarantee that on seeing the defeat at the horizon, ravan would not kill seeta himself? In that case rama would have lost the war even after winning it.

2. This issue is of more serious concern. He abandoned seeta, for not a single logical reason. At the very root i can say that he should have realised that in the society he lived, to save ones wife was the duty of her husband, and he could not fulfill it so at first he should have punish himself and than innocent sita. He knew that his decision to deport seeta was wrong, and he did it just because of the society, he did it just because of the fear of loosing his 'prestige'. And the 'prestige' of a person is largely related to himself and to hold the prestige high at the disaster of your beloved ones, is purely a selfish act and nothing more. so wasn't that the selfish act by rama?

       To conclude with, I am just calling a spade a spade. Personally i like many of his characteristics and believe that there are too many good aspects of lord rama to introduce in our life. But that shouldn't make me blind, i have written this post just to make one point very clear that this is the age of "reason" or "logic" and "rationality", in science we use these extensively but when it come to religion or deep rooted beliefs we become totally 'immune to reason'. We bury everything under the label of "faith" where common sense contradicts.

Are you planning to commit suicide?If you are not in a mood to commit suicide now-a-days,you are having the same probablity of committing suicide as i have in far future but if you are seriously thinking towards it, then do any noble thing before you shorten your life because you are going to die anyway so why not after doing a good thing for which others may respect you after your death. like kill anyone who has been harmful to society or country. If you cant kill anyone than do anything that befits your courage.

Another way for those who have been thinking of committing suicide. Do you know that committing suicide can bring you money? Ofcourse you wont get the chance to withdraw the cheque but,your family will do. There is a channel in a European country(i dont remember the name) named "Death channel/TV". This channel shoots you while you are jumping into water or doing similar adventure and will telecast the video on their tv channel. The compensation that the company gives for this coverage may make your family millionaire. Not only this it will make you famous all over the country. And all mortals have always been concerned about money and fame, so if you think that life is not giving these to you,death will definetly give you.

I know it seems absurd, because a person thinking of having suicide is very depressed or frustrated from life and in this case he/her cant think of anything else than leaving this planet earth and get salvation as fast as possible, but its not totally inapplicable. So why not to make your death worthwhile if you think your life was not.

'kaka' : A Tribute

.................There is a word 'altruist', i came to know long ago. Since then I have been finding a person who should be given this nickname , I have tried too much and in this search many saints, many ascetic persons, many magnanimous personalities seemed to be the right one but no body has ever been able to stand before my (common)sense of reasoning, no one deserve this word, though this is my personal opinion (I like this word 'personal opinion', you can write any crap by declaring it as a personal opinion).

...................But there is always an exception which scatters the rule. I have met a true 'altruist'. People call him 'kaka', yet very few people know his real name ( but what's there in name?). He is an excellent english teacher and a former militant. I think he is probably of 79 or 80. He has been teaching english more than 8 hours a day for more than 30 years with per year only a single holiday of 'new year day'. One more thing is missing to note that he has been teaching without taking any fee, not a single rupee,instead he provides notes and pens to needy students. As far as I know he has never accepted or asked for any external aid, he is doing all these on his own feet by spending his own pension money. Taking resources from rich people and transfer it to needy students under the name of charity has never been his mantra. I owe a part of my being what I am to this person who has first served the nation while in army, and then society by teaching english to typical gujjus like me. It hurts when I see that in jamnagar, only the the people from his neighborhood knows him and the rest of the city has not even heard the name of him.

At last, a sentence I have uttered countless times and If you have ever been a student of kaka , you must have also uttered it too many times.
"kaka, jay hind".

Controversies....Part-2

......+Controversy:- M.F.Hussain has made a few paintings for which he was opposed by some(actually many) so called guard of hinduism and , patriots. Mostly his two paintings one is of Hindu Goddess Durga portrayed nude and another painting of bharat mata is also nude.

......+But :- Hinduism, my inherited religion(of course inherited,i didnt get any chance to bargain on any other options). But yes i can describe too many great things in this religion,but that would lead to a different topic.

.........Let me ask all those who hates M.F.Hussain a very simple question. If M.F.Hussain was a hindu and had made the same paintings would you have still hated, and oppossed him. If your answer is yes, than go and hate The Great Mahakavi Kalidas, destroy all his Mahakavyas, and remove his name from Indian History because he is also a culprit of you. He has elaborately narrated the romance(foreplay would be certainly a perfect word) between Shiv and Parwati in eighth Chapter of his wellknown epic "Kumar Sambhavam"(I wont use the word freedom of expression for defence of MFH ,because freedom of exp. doesnt mean that you are allowed to violate the religious beliefs of people). But on the contrary we have written his name in golden letters. The only thing i want to put here is that the contemporary hinduism has become just an anti-islam version.
..........I am not telling that MFH is a good painter because i personally dont know anything about that art. But if Kalidas had not written any vulgar poem, MFH has also not drawn any vulgar painting. It's not fair that if one person does something, it is labeled as 'ashlil' and the same thing is done by the other becomes ' shrungar'.

Controversies....Part-1

....................Having known the issue about the British author Sir Salman Rushdie n Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasrin, Having Seen the paintings of the famous(notorious) painter M.F.Hussain , Having watched the movie "The Da Vinci Code", I will add few more lines to already written hundreds of pages about all above issues. May be the subject is divided into more than one posts. Continue.......

........* The Satanic Verses(by Salman Rushdie).
.........+Controversy:- I have not read this entire book. But mostly the Controversy has arose because in this book the author has narrated the wives of Prophet Mohammad as "whores" and also claims few mistakes in some verses of the Holy book Quran. As a result The Muslims Mullas all over the world has declared fatvas on him.

........+Qustion:- Do you believe that only god is free from committing mistakes and no human can be perfect. If the answer is yes than stick to it until the end of this post.

........+But :- Islam ,I love this Religion for its Intellectual Concept of God. I can say that Salman Rushdie has criticized the Quran in his controversial book. He has pointed out some fundamental mistakes(atleast he has claimed that) in Quran. The muslims believe that(same for hindus n others) their Quran is perfect and there could not be any mistakes.First of all let me tell you that a religion is just a human-made definition of the GOD If it were established by GOD it/her/hisself (ya God must not have any particular gender,name,size,colour as this attributes only belongs to Humans, and must be beyond such humanlike identification), was he/she/it so confused that he/she/it made too many religions. So and Since this is a human made concept,it is not beyond imperfection, there can be or must be many loopholes, so is about the holy books. The Quran is written by PM, and the PM however great, was a human he might had made mistakes in Quran(same for Gita and Bible also). One may argue that PM was not a human he was a child of God himself. Nope, never, I counter argue that why all the so called children of God or Birth of God were born as a male? PM,JC,Krishna,Rama,Budda,Mahavira all were surprisingly men. GOD could have born as a Female. GOD could not be so unjust to women (jaago naari jaago). PM was supposed to make mistakes, and if a muslim wont criticize his own religion than who else is supposed to do that.

.............Still you believe that Rusdie was wrong, than dislike him, oppose him, abuse him, but you can't kill him, no religion gives you that right..

Indians on Forbes

Read the news?(I hate this word read,you will never know whether it is Rid or Red). Indians are conquering the Forbes list of the richest persons of the world. Gautam Adani is also listed on the Forbes. Hurray, Celebrate.

But something is missing to note..

Once our professor had said(of course with a little exaggeration)that the 90% of our national income has been possessed by the top 10% people and only the rest 10% of national income has been shared by the rest 90% of population. Seeing American names on the list of toppers is surely a matter of feeling proud for themselves because they are having a car per family. They are having a strong middle class and far less income inequality. Whereas India is having 30% of its population below poverty level
. But we Indians are just used to over-react on any matter either it is Ambanis or Sunita Williams.

True that our economy is one of the fastest growing economy in the world,but that doesnt mean that entire India in all aspects is developing at the same pace. If someone says that our poor class is developing rapidly than I must ask why the NAXALISM is broadening horizons? NAXALISM is nothing but the consequence of the uneven developement of our nation. India is growing up like a handicapped child. India is undergoing rapid industrialization, but at the cost of Agriculture. The Higher class is getting more and more rich, but it is also a bitter truth that farmers are committing suicides across the country.
