SUCCESS OF STORIES

Once I heard Muriel Rukeyser's (an American poet) quote "The universe made of stories not atomes". That time I was too busy to understand the logic of these magical words but when I understood how could i resist myself of sharing it?

Every mind, every new second, making a new story, making a new world or universe in their mind. These stories sometime influence your mood, your action, performance, and ultimately your life. Only stories of those who dominated the scene of THE world or of THEIR world are remembered and we know them as LEADERS. This breed carries some fascinating characteristics like.....
1. A leader is one who takes the initiative, never wait for someone's support.
2. He/she never afraid of taking responsibility, never backstep himself, by looking probability of failure or defeat.
3. Intuitive knowledge of when to strike and till when to wait for right opportunity, makes good leader.
4. He should has a ear to the ground so he/she can hear voice of footsteps of what coming next. Ultimately leader can sense the danger and should be able to avert it.
5. A good instinctive leader never traped by advise of experts or surveys in other words he/she doesn't completely bank upon those advises.
6. A leader always keep a eye on internal working of his/her institution and try to maintain coherence among all.
7. He/she always find solutions to keep people happy.
8. Always take up challenges never avoid challenges.



Above all, according to me, A LEADER is one, who can see a unforeseen dream, believe on it and make it happen. He should also have charm to make people belive on the idea what they are striving for. In other words he should win confidence of people around him.

Remember this world will give you everything, if you are just good in your work but arrogance of doing it with excellence just because you are involved in it will make you GREAT.
So try to be great, try to live a great life because any thing less than this will be an injustice to the species you belong to. The most EVOLVED one, the most COMFORTABLE one.

THE TOLERANT CIVILIZATION OF INDIA


INDIA, the country of great civilization, great culture and diversity which it earned by assimilating new religion, faith and ideas open heartedly. Weather it came from within the society like JAINISM, BUDDHISM or SIKHISM or from any other part of the world like CHRISTIANITY, ISLAM, ZOROASTRIAN, JUDAISM and many more. Because the core belief of this land says that the supreme power, the god gifted us these religions and cultures for our spiritual nourishment, our well being and moral prosperity not for what is happening these days, mankind is servering religion by trying to spreading it till last corner of the earth. This practice seems like " rider being ridden by horse". I think that is why we do not have any supremely authoritative text. On this land God did not declared any final truth, i think god had some hope from this land of seekers that they will find it by their own. Actually this desire of seeking of the truth gives us a meaningful spiritual life but in case you are handed truth in the very first chapter of your life then it is very evident that you waste rest of your life in convincing or sometime compelling others to believe on your subjective truth but this land never did this injustice to its progeny. That's why we have more than 100 interpretation of our Ramayana, Mahabharat and Gita. Because we respect everybody's truth. After all respecting and adorning the truth, the God lies in every heart is more important than any scripture or holy text.


We have some oldest Christian of earth in Kerala, the second mosque of the world after Madina erected in Gujrat by permission of a hindu king, this is the only country which never persecute Jews, we have micro minority Zoroastrian living here with dignity. The core philosophy of this civilization is so liberal that it never resist any new idea, philosophy or scientific discovery contrary to that we lived in harmony with these. Unlike west where geniuses like Galileo, Socrates, Archimedes had to die or persecuted, we revered our scientists and innovators calling them Rishi or Maharishi like rishi kanak, rishi Bodhyayan, rishi sewetketu and rishi Charvak who's philosophy is not coherent with any Indian philosophy.


We have witnessed brutal conquest, persecution and confrontation but yet retain our cultural roots. We may have lost battle of sword but we resisted intellectually for more than thousand year but nowadays this great believe system is moribund not because of any external aggregation but because of deficiency of confidence in our own culture. We have our reference point of social values in west, our every greatness of past should be certified by them first then only we recognize it.





In Syria every school going kid learn stories of great Indian traders of 4000 year ago, in Lebanon everybody reads about 4300 year old temple made by Indian traders, with the help of Indian labourers of stone brought form India and having a lotus on its ceiling. Does any Indian child know about Angkor wat in combodia made by khmer king suryavarman 1000 years ago which is the largest temple of earth.
Our education system is legging in telling tell us about our glorious past so it is unable to build pride about who we were and who we are. Then how come this progeny will make a pride Nation

MAHARISHI BHIMRAO AMBEDKAR

Maharishi Bhimrao Ambedkar. Its a wierd way to commemorate Ambedkar as a maharishi. A presone who defied veda's authority all his life after learning that veda's are prejudice for shudra. Who is shudra and who is Brhaman has been debated from long, whether this terms meant to defined by cast or by born of a person. Similarly who is maharishi is also debatable in modern times, who should be called Maharishi , is it a gender agnostic term or only male scholars could be Maharishi ? would only a person comes from a particular caste or clan can have claim over this title ?
Let's try to find out answer in our scriptures and mythology.





Many ancient sages and rishis came from humble backgrounds. Vishwamitra was a warrior by birth but practiced austerities like a Brahmins and became a great rishi. Sage Parashar, the famous law giver, was the son of an outcaste (chandala). Rishi Vashista was born to a prostitute ,while sage Vyasa, the original author of the Mahabharata, was born to a fisherwoman. Rishi Valmiki the original composer of Ramayana came from a tribal family of traditional hunters. Some composers of the Vedic and Upanishadic hymns belonged to either lower castes or mixed castes. Satyakam Jabala was born to a prostitute who could not tell him who was his father.


                             Manu himslef said Brahmin is an incarnation of dharma born to protect dharma as ambedkar saheb did throughout his life. But in present time his name is remembered as a person who bring RESERVATION in Constitution. That is why backward classes revered him as a prophet while been out of reach of reverence of forward classes. Remembering B.r. Ambedkar just as a giver of reservation or a leader of a particular class would be a huge unjustice to the society. When one look at Dr. Ambedkar's life,masseges and achievement he was a lot more than this.





Ambedkar was a prolific student, earned a law degree and various doctorates from Columbia University and the London School of Economics, and gained a reputation as a scholar for his research in law, economics and political science. In his early career he was an economist, professor, and lawyer and later emerged as a law giver, philosopher and a social reformer who rekindled Buddhism in indian society. He was also a strong believer in democracy by his intellect he played a major role in making of Constitution, a Democratic form of government through which he tried to establish a Democratic form of SOCIETY.

                If we honestly juxtapose his contribution with our former reformers and  maharishies like Aryabhaat, charak,valmiki it was not lesser to anybody,so in my opinion he evidently deserves this title and respect of Maharishi in our society.

As purush sukta of RIG VED  says shudra bron out of bhramas feet and feet of god usually most worshipped part of body.
So for us its time to follow vedas commandments and adopt Ambedkar saheb as latest MAHARISHI of hindu society
