The True Indian!
Guess who? Its Mahatma Gandhi - I am writing this post as a tribute to his birth day, but believe me whatever i write will be very less for what he did. I have heard many of my friends saying that he is not a good guy and had a vested interest. But let me ask them, how they are and what they have done for others whom they don't know even! It was Mahatma Gandhi who get sicked to his teachings of 'ahimsha' and implemented it throughout his life, whatever the consequences may be it viz the hanging of Bhagat Singh, but he didn't enjoy it, rather discouraged that behavior. It was him only that we got independence. he stood up in front of the Britishers and coolly said that anyways whatever your point it, how can a country with very less population can continue to rule over such a huge mass. His point was straight forward and can't be challenged. He didn't involve his family into politics, rather nobody knows, who they are! It was the cunning Jawaharlal Nehru who used his background making the pretext of tribute. Well i m not saying here that he was the only one, rather i would like to recall Bal Gangadhar Tilak, who even in jail didn't forget his work and truly the iron man Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, because of whom India stands today so firm.
Swaham
The very first thing that arose in my mind in my childhood days was – ‘Who am I?’ well here, let me share my feeling that I grasped thereafter. Firstly ponder on it and try to investigate that - Are we body, or mind or the intellect? One who thinks body, I will say to him that cut your hand and call that parted hand to be you – will you? If you think it to be mind or intellect (well, under it, much to discuss but confining for the time being) – as one thing is very clear that we are known in this world by our intellect but again we should think that this is only the material world – the all maya and we should not get captured by it. Then what is real? Many controversies are prevailing regarding this topic. Some say dream is a real world and not this mortal land! If you ask me I will say it’s a spiritual world. We are soul rather we are we! Body is just the clothes and intellect is ornament. Swamiji also said that we should not get carried away the word ‘I’. Now, I want to say that by this ‘I’, we shouldn’t mean ‘I’ is nothing but it is – it’s our soul and it is this soul that goes away with us after our death, so it is very important to build up our soul, but how? Here I want to mention that it is our character that ornaments our soul, rather it fills our pot of karma (here also I didn’t mean that that character is us as it gets build-up i.e. when we take re-birth, if you believe it as you should or will be, we don’t know anything and we learn the things from our surroundings and so character is build and fills our pot of karma with a new direction). Swamiji said when wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, then something is lost; and when character is lost, everything is lost! By these words he wanted to say that wealth plays no role in our own pleasure, it’s just a material pleasure! Body is somewhat essential part of our living so required but character is of paramount importance, if not there then what to do with body and so what for money! Now one question that may arise in our material mind is that ‘What is character?’ here first and foremost I want to impose a question – ‘What is the difference between Character and Personality?’ Well, one thing is very clear that Personality is seen and Character is hidden, again a culprit knows what is wrong and what is right, but even then he does so but he is aware i.e. it’s not that he didn’t realize. So coming to the point here I want to say that what we show outside is not required but what we are inside that really matters! The point is not straight rather weird, i.e. if we think, two things happens in our mind – one we judge its good or bad and second we ponder on it or we bypass it. Everyone get to know what is good or bad if he go inside himself (everything is inside us and that’s why the great sages get atma jyana or the ultimate brahma jyana simply by meditating themselves!), but the action didn’t obey it, rather it’s our mind hat redirects it and that ultimately accounts for our karma!
Everything is planned!!!
Well, much to say about the topic but for the time being, we must understand what is God? Well as an Indian we have all heard from our parents as a shruti that without God’s permission we can’t do anything, it is said even a leaf can’t move without God’s permission. While we go to quantum level, we see that, an electron can take any path - as for example in the slit experiment, where a beam of electron is fed to the screen containing many parallel slit, it can travel in anyone of the many slits or even by more than one simultaneously! It is said to be undetermined, unless we see it, as an example if you see that your parents are seeing you, your behavior changes, again unless they didn’t see you, you can be anywhere. So what peoples did they introduced the concept of parallel universe - were it is said everything can happen each in the different universe viz. if India lost her match against Pakistan in one world, she wins in the other! For all these things, if studied with intricate details, it can be visualized that they are occurring due to the value of so called Plank’s constant, which is very small in our universe and it is for this reason only that we get such behavior only in the microscopic dimensions. Well, there may be any other parallel universe where the value of plank constant can be higher and there we can observe the Quantum behavior in macroscopic world itself! We all are aware of the so called String Theories, which were applied to explain the M-Theory, but for it different scientist came out with different propositions, and that’s why only it is said ‘whatever we assume, world is like that.’ Now-a-days many scientist are trying to unify the very concept. One of the strongest scientist in this field, Edward Witten, worked on strong force and ended with the concept of String Theory. He after explaining the Gauge principle and super symmetry found the nature of strong force. After the success of his theory, he said his theory exactly matches with the one given in Gita. Our ancient knowledge was far much developed, our holy books are just written in codes. While the Britishers’ invaded India, in order to get catch hold of India’s progress, Max Muller wrongly interpreted the concept that were given in our scriptures which were just a code!
The Authentic India!
Our ancient India was an ethical one. There was no such corruption or even discrimination. The division of society into four Varna viz. Brahman, Khatriya, Vaisya and Shudra was purely on work basis. It is said in ancient days, the farmer didn’t required to give boundary to his farm, even the houses of that time doesn’t required any doors or windows and his can be seen in some parts of India even today! India used to treat their guest as god! Hey, here I would like to point out that dog is god! Is not like that they have same letter in opposite arrangement (but that is the reason if we see numerology), but as we have seen whatever we do to god, even we course him but at last he comes to us! The very same occurs with dog i.e. even we beat him he at last comes to us.
Hello friends! My blogs deals with our greatest Punya Bhoomi!!!
"If there is any land on this earth where everyone should come on account of his karma, if there is any land which deserves to be called as ‘Punya Bhumi’ (Holy Land) - it is India!" - Swami Vivekananda. We must know its pride, which has undergone many invasions, but still as as firm as the great Himalayas. Nobody has thought of the downfall of the Roman or even Greek empire, but it fell, but India even after hundreds of invasion is still standing with his own pride! Religion is the soul and spirituality is the life-blood of Indians. Americans don’t understand things without knowing the political impacts that it may have or even England don’t believe if it don’t have societal impacts, but India is one standing straight with her religion. Religion was the set of principles of human nature in depth, but now it is wrongly interpreted as a blind-faith! Many things occur in our life of which no scientific explanation exists, it doesn’t mean that they are not present in our life. The thing is we have forgotten our vast knowledge, but it is written in our scriptures that it is indestructible i.e. it is with us and is continuing as Shruti! India will rise up more firmer than before it was. She has not forgotten her culture. Even now many ancient wisdom of Sanatan Dharma can still be seen in each and every household!
