Why YOU attack everyone???

It was a big surprise and shock to the whole world when the Commander-in-Chief of the mightiest armed force in the world was awarded one of the most prestigious, respected awards and sacred awards The Noble Peace Prize. I would have been happy if he was awarded Noble 'Piece' prizes, for shattering peace in this world to achieve peace, according to those who support this 'piece initiative'. This high handed noble prize winner along with other 'statesman' have self proclaimed that they are the sole proprietors of peace establishment.

Their Veto power is used as an instrument to kill people under the veil of protecting innocent people. Their ways- supply arms to their allies, provide them with intelligence, use media to fabricate news and act as UNO. They think UNO is because of them, they elect some puppet as the secretary general and do whatever they want. Why are they doing this? to establish peace? To protect people? No, they are doing this to get access to the future, to get access to OIL and just OIL. Do you really think that any aeroplane can enter US airspace by disobeying orders?? Do you think there were Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq?
Do you think american intelligence is so bad that it couldn't avoid all these? Do you think there was a serious problem with Libya to intervene? Do you really believe that at this point of war Syria will dare to use Chemical Weapon and lose all the support they have? 

Its the greed and power hunger of these nations that is forcing them to attack these oil rich and goe politically significant countries. this doesn't stop here, they allege that Human Rights Violation took place in Sri Lanka during the recent civil war. Can anyone tell me what happens during drone attacks?? just because no one sits inside drones does it mean its not human error and not Human Rights Violation? Why this Double Standard? We are sick of their hypocritical behavior. 

Stop these attacks now else you are going to rip off this world into pieces. I pray God to give strength to those innocent people get killed because of some people's greed. There is always a peaceful way to solve things and its just a matter a choice. War can never establish peace because its not just the physical damage that war inflicts upon us, it causes a deep wound, deep in the lives of people which can never be forgotten.

Kurudu kanchana.... Blind gold...



Today I listened to one of the most touching songs written by one of most scholarly and distinguished poets the world has ever seen. This has been my favorite song since my school days when this poem/song was a part of syllabus of my 1st language subject, Kannada. The poet is Dattatreya Ramachandra Bendre popularly known as Da. Ra. Bendre. He is a poet of distinct character in whose life friends were everything and just everything. He had to spend a miserable life as he neither desired to make money nor went behind it. There are many heart touching stories about his life because of his poor economic condition. Once when his son was ill he could not manage to get medicines, such was his situation. Its irony that such a great poet had such a difficult living. 

Even with all these problems and may be inspired by many such problems and contemporary situations Bendre has written some classic songs which inspires many even today. His rejection towards exploitation by the upper class and the rich is evident abundantly in his works. Many Bhava Geethes are just very relevant in today’s scenario where the rich suck the blood of poor and lead a lofty lifestyle. 

Kurudu Kanchana Kuniyutalittu.. Kaalige biddavara tuliyutalittu… is that song which reminds me of the exploitation and suppression of the poverished class. Each word in the song is by itself self explanatory and depicts the crude and cruel image of the people with money power. The sight of the evil money power as described in the poem just frightens me. The way the working class people are hunted is very saddening. The evil of the devil will be wearing anklets made out of tender bones of a mother who has just given birth to a baby, chain made of eye balls of poor small children and many more…. 

If that was the situation then, we live in no better society now. If the song explains of the then prevalent exploitation, its same now, it is relevant today as well. We are living in a society where the privileges I get depends on my caste, religion, property I own, richness I have and the bureaucrat or the politician whom I know or support. Where girls especially those from poor background are raped inhumanly and killed by rich insane anti social elements and if the victim survives they are threatened and victimized for being a victim. Even after all these allegations and convictions, the rich will be roaming happily and without any sense of wrongdoing or even guilt for committing such a heinous act. This is just one of many such incidents that are happening today. 

Are we not ashamed to live in such a society?? Or have we lost all our values and become numb not to feel anything from this?? No we cannot be like that..

We need a better place to live, a better country to feel proud of…We need a change in our mindset.
I can change and will change… Can u??

They are Revolutionaries, not Terrorists!!!

March 23rd 1931, the day which can never be forgotten by any INDIAN, the day on which the ideas, ideals, new thought process, dreams and desires which were revolutionary and pro poor were brutally hanged by branding those as Extremist or terrorist ideas which created malaise in the society. Yes, I am referring to the brutal hanging of the legends who fought for the cause of FREEDOM to free Mother India from the shackles of British rule. Bhagat Singh, Shivaram Rajguru, and Sukhdev Thapar who embraced  death valiantly were executed illegally flaunting the rules and demonstrating  the barbaric rule of that time. the trial was  not conducted in a fair manner and it was pretty clear that British feared these young freedom fighters with revolutionary ideas and it seemed that they wanted to crush them with their IRON FIST, of course with the help of so called INDIANS. Its sad that even Gandhi didn't want to save these young heroes. I want to address them as HEROES WITH REVOLUTIONARY IDEAS which were pro people, pro poor, pro working class and ultimately and importantly PRO INDIA rather than mere revolutionaries. Its shame to call them or brand them as terrorists which many people and historians did and are doing who just know the half truth or no truth or not interested to know about their core ideologies

Bhagat Singh never wanted war, never embraced violence. He said: "It is famous that I am a terrorist but I am not that. I am a revolutionary who has certain ideology, defined ideals and a long programme and if people think that after living in for a long period in the jail, there is any change in my ideologies then they are wrong. It is my firm belief that we cannot get any benefit from either bombs or pistols. Throwing bomb is not only dangerous but also harmful. It is required in certain specific conditions. Our main aim is the organization of laborers and farmers." In many of his writings its very clear that the intention to throw bomb was to awaken the sleeping giant who was just interested to suck Indian's blood and exploit the poor. 

On 6th June 1929 Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt said in a statement,      'To change the system based on injustice, we need revolution. Is it not a constructed injustice that the labors and producers, despite being the part of mainstream, are victim of exploitation and have been denied basic human rights? Farmers, who produces die of hunger. The weaver who weaves cloths for others cannot do so for his own family and children. Meson, Carpenters, Iron smiths build huge palaces die living in huts and slums. On the other side, capitalist exploiters, anti social elements, spend crores of rupees on their fashion and enjoyment. Those who enjoy at the cost of hardworking and hungry people should understand that they are sitting on such a volcano which is about to erupt.' Its irony and painful to know that Indians required a bomb to awaken the ruling or to be specific EXPLOITING ELITE. For everyone who is ignorant about these noble ideas of Bhagat Singh my sincere request is please read this great hero, read him with love towards nation, read him with a pure heart. These are just a few ideas about these people, I am afraid it runs into pages and pages if I keep on writing. 

Bhagat Singh emphasized that ‘for  revolution the struggle against the external forces like imperialist - capitalists and colonialists as well as against the internal forces like the Indian capitalists, feudal landlords, moneylenders and traders was essential'. Don't you think this great legend is still relevant today? Yes, He is. In today's India where 10% Elite class enjoys at the cost of 90% working and toiling Indians, Bhagat Singh and his ideas are and will be very relevant. India needs a hero, a hero in every Indian, heroism in every action to wipe out the tears of the down trodden. 

Lets remember and cherish the sacrifice of these great heroes and preserve and protect our freedom, our democracy, our Unity and our values. 

Be a Hero, be a true Indian.

One small change..

We need a change.. Not a change in the world.. A change in yourself!

We all think about changing something in the world. But no one does think about changing themselves. Some great person said "The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking". 
Yes... We all need to change our mindset and attitude about each and everything we are expecting to change in this world.

Let's start with an example of a small family: Mom, Dad and an 8-year old kid.. Dad is too grumpy, shouting all the time, finding mistakes in each and everything. Mom is very silent, doesn't talk much, does her work as a "duty". The kid doesn't like to be at home because of this attitude of his parents. He doesn't want to talk to his parents too. He has turned an introvert already.
One Morning: Mom prepares breakfast, lunch for everyone. Dad is shouting that the breakfast is not good. The kid is getting ready to school. He needs some money for his drawing competition and he asks his dad. His dad shouts at him saying, "Study properly, no need of drawing, you are not going to become a painter in life". The kid is disappointed. Now mom gets tea and by mistake she drops it on dad's shirt. Oh my god! What just happened!! The "always shouting" dad just got up, changed the shirt and went to office. And now, mom and the kid are left scandalized. They were expecting a war at home in this situation. But, dad did not even speak a single word. And what's going in dad's mind now. He himself is surprised by his reaction. He is thinking, "why didn't I shout?", "it was not purposefully dropped on my shirt", "how calm was the house when I stopped shouting?", "what might be my wife feeling now?", "what might my kid be thinking?". He calls up home (which he normally never did) and talks to mom. Mom has another surprise today! She says "Sorry" for dropping the tea and starts happily talking about what she did the whole day. Dad just feels the change in him and what difference his change has made. He comes in the evening and sees the kid happily waiting for him holding a drawing of his family, of course with a smile on his dad's face(all these days his drawings had a grumpy-faced dad)

This is just a small situation where just a small reaction changed the whole day of three lives. So now let's think, Is it so difficult to change? No, not at all.. Give a small change in your life everyday, in every action you do, every word you speak, every smile you give. 

Of course, you are living for yourself, you need not change for anyone. But just think, the whole world is not "just you". There are so many people around you who love you. Bring a small change in your life for those loved ones and just feel the happiness in you. If you are happy, you can achieve what you want. 

To bring a change in our country, think what you can change in yourself. Give a little thought. To change a country like India, one doesn't need intelligence or courage. He just needs patience and perseverance. Perseverance to make the change happen and patience to wait for it.



Life as I see it



Writing a blog was a recent desire or an intention (to serve what God knows!!). The first blog alike first words describe a person's perspective. Sharing your perspective is the justice perception expects from you. The first perspective that comes alive with any sensible experience is of life!


I feel at last Life boils down to four elements which are already within us:

Love - Share it for your own satisfaction

Success follows a display of mental strength under unusual and unexpected circumstances. Love is the entity that nourishes this strength.

Vedas - Share it to guide others.

Vedas live within us more than in books. Books sound like illusion when you can read the Vedas inscribed in your mind. It automatically chooses your thoughts such that the word 'words' when its source is your mind evolves into a verb.

Fire - (of hunger, lust, anger, selfishness, possessiveness etc) use it to bring peace

These are the things that makes us burn within and we keep burning every minute we breathe them in. You can use this fire to turn things into ash or you can become a fire that guides the entire world towards peace.

Knowledge - Use it for your own benefit.

Knowledge is just a state of mind. You can flood your life with happiness if you know how to stay in this state.

Life is more valuable than heaven - a path function. The way we march towards our destiny is more important than the destiny itself. Emotions, Karma, Revenge - classified under illusion category. The journey lies above all of these.

'The achieved' title is not actually an asset though the trials are possible actions. Simple thoughts become ink and writes much higher reality which seldom is a characteristic of its source just like the mind which governs me which believes that the way I see needlessly be the way I am but should be the way I want to be.

Does CBI really mean Central Bureau of Investigation anymore??!!!!

Central Bureau of Investigation, India's premier investigation agency was instituted (let me not mention date as it is irrelevant to this discussion) to deal with high level/ high profile cases and cases with serious offenses and implications. The main purpose behind this is to decouple political interference as we all know how police department in India is controlled by vested interests. Its a really great commendable idea to start an agency which can deliver less distorted reports and conduct fair investigation.

But are these goals really achieved? Or if not so early, is it going in a direction to achieve these goals??? Innumerable incidents on recent as well as past just prove the contrary. CBI is just going in a direction which was probably not even envisaged when it was instituted. It has become a strong weapon in the hands of ruling party to control and victimize their political opponents. To mention a few cases- Jaganmohan Reddy, son of great Rajashekar Reddy, Ex CM Andhra Pradesh, who was one of the closest persons to Sonia Gandhi was arrested by CBI after he left INC and started his own party. Why was he not questioned when he was in INC? How come he becomes corrupt as soon as he quits INC?? Cases against great Lalu Prasad, Mulayam Singh, Mayavati will be dormant as long as they support INC. What happened to Mine baron Janardhana Reddy case? As soon as Sriramulu quit BJP and start new party against BJP, case become weak and slow. Till then CBI would be very aggressive, we will be wondering atleast one person will be punished!! What happened to Stalin now? Why black money slashed in overseas banks are not investigated and why the names of account holders are not revealed? These are just few cases to mention, probably I need to write hours together to name all cases. 

Why is the most powerful investigation agency in India is used in such a bad manner and used a political weapon to tame the opponents? Are there no persons with integrity who occupy those positions or are they made silent by transferring to dummy positions? Does the government think that we, the people are really dumb that we don't understand all these? India is the biggest DEMOCRACY, why is it turned into MOBOCRACY? There is serious ANARCHY within CBI and if this continues the agency will become a threat to the nation (its already in the process).  Why have we become so numb that very few of us protest against such wrongdoings?

One of the most beautifully and carefully scripted part of any book which we can read is the PREAMBLE. India and Indians need justice, Liberty and equality. Why the political class is no shameless and forgetting the PREABBLE of our constitution? Please don't make those words and sentences and the efforts put by lakhs of freedom fighters and nationalists to achieve independence and frame our constitution meaningless. Please save the beautiful gift of DEMOCRACY to our future generations.

Dream on...


                    What is a dream??? Is it something u do in your sleep?? No... it is something you aspire to do if possible. Dreamers are of many types to name a few, some people dream about their future life, money, wife etc. Some dream about their career and dream about reaching the pinnacle of success. And then there are ones who dream about doing something to the mankind, making their lives easier, more efficient, doing something to the society, giving something back to the nature, in a way thanking nature for all its given..It is because of one’s guy dream that we are using the iPod, facebook and what not!! Our lives have been changed and made easy because one guy dreamt selflessly without thinking about his own life and dreamt for the betterment of the society and mankind. Dreaming to change something and making it better is a trait to be admired and not a lot of people can do. If u dream without thinking about the end result, who knows one day your dream can change the world. As Walt Disney says, all dreams can come true, If u have the courage to pursue them...
                        

                     What i am trying to tell here is, in a way i am motivating myself and appealing everyone to dream, dream to make people’s lives easier. Dream to give back something to mankind. Dream fearlessly. At first one may call you a daydreamer or whatever but your dream change the world.. Who knows maybe one day your dream can change the lives of a billion people!!

Dream on..
Good Luck..
