Divine message

To the man who is seeking truth, which brings

 

supreme happiness, it is important to understand

 

yourself. Without self-knowledge, your thought,

 

that which you reason out, has no basis. Without

 

first knowing yourself, how can you know what is

 

true? Illusion is inevitable without

self-knowledge.

(J. Krishnamurti)

Well it is definitely important for individuals to know about their own self, their strengths, weakness, expectations, ways, likes, goals etc and position themselves in apt manners relative to their counterparts, society at large.

 

But, all said and done, who is going to bell the cat? In the name of MODernITY, this and that, a pant/baggy clad hippy is more respected than a dhoti clad Gandhi; a MIDdie clad dame is more respected than one's own mother, sister, wife.

 

Where are we? Where are we? The quote above is true. But, what to do when the world itself is being turned into an illusion, a halo? What to do when theatric individuals, lies, faSHUN, this and a that overtakes, decimates virtues right under one's own nose? What to do when we ourselves are overwhelmed and kill that loved one when s/he he is rebuked unwittingly, unhessitatingly for this or a that reason? Where is the world when it collapses right under your God's feet? Where is the world where your own father/mother, brother/sister, son/daughter etc kill that cherished principle of yours right in your presence and overpowers you too? While this is the case, what is the case with so called BOOs at office. The best is his/her own irrespective of whether s/he worked, deserve it etc. By hierarchy, the so called junior HAS to bear, suffer. Where is the world? Where are principles? Where are we? Where are we?
