JET AIRWAYS AND RAJ ..

Last week , the headline was of the employees of the jet airways who were fired , and then asked to join the office ... Lots of trauma between those three days for those employess and I feel extremely sorry for them .But my talking point is that how those employess contacted Mr Raj Thackerey to solve their problem .. Why I said this because a week after Mr Raj is once again in the news for all wrong reason ..
Now when we see all the riots caused by the blind followers of MNS , we say how those people did that ? Are they not properly educated to see themselves what is good or bad ...if all those jet employees can contact him for theoir problem , why cann't a general man follow Mr Raj who is deprived of his basic necessities ? And this tells all the problem .. it's not good or bad ... its not about moral .. we tend to follow the side which can provide us our basic need .. and if the government cann't provide it then either god or the demi-gods can do it ..

One weird thought ...

As a Hindu , I celebrete more than 13 festivals in a year and every festival with a great pump and show . Now I think what was the logic of my ancestors to arrange so many festivals all around the year and also to celebrate ganesh puja , dussehara at the expense of large money . We dont keep the idols more than a week and make the idol each year after year ..they could have surely thought about it ..
Now lets not bring the thought that all these weird cultures were set up by the brahmans who tried to get an authority for themselves .. What I think is that there was a definite economic purpose behind that .. Look , if we can put through like this .. every year the person who crates the idol gets the opportunity for income .. the person who provodies all the necessary festival items gets alimony .. and during the festival times people spend a lot for themselves which can give proper boost to the rural economy .. above all the festival brings the unity , social security and togetherness into life which every one will agree are the fundamentals of any prosperous and sound society ..
Then what .. I salute them to making realise such a financial package to boost the society ...

Indian Idol ..season 4

I am quite a vivid fan of Indian Idol and has been following it for last two years(season 1 i missed)...But this time I find a bit of freshness , a bit of constructive imagination .. apart from the usual pocker-faced judges smiling and fighting ....
Today I heard the judge Mr Javed Akhtar saying that real talent lies in small towns of India as they catch hold of their culture more close to their heart than the metros ... He said the same when a bunch of guys/gals were selected for mumbai form Varanasi .. then a girl from a small village with a poor background was also selected ..
Now lets be little cycnic and skeptic that all these are marketing method , so that sponsors can reach to the untapped small towns .. (as sponsors definitely try to gain as they have invested their capital ) Having said that now lets look at the Indian cricket team where Chawla ,Ojha Munaf all come from small towns .. Now ofter olympics small town Viwani has also come in the larger picture ..
This picture says much more than thousand words ...
This says the capability of all of us .. Indians if they can come in full throttle then there is no stopping .. It says the untapped human resource as we ae going to have the largest young generation ...It says the value that lies in holding our culture deep to our heart .. not being procastinating ourselves but using that value for bettrement of the globe ... it says the what a great sangam of western idealogy and indian tradition can create (above all indian idol concept is from American Idol)..and it says the world gets flat to generate idols all around the world not ideals or jobless workers ...

The mystic Dussehara ...

I am writing this on the eve of 6th day of Dussehara .. and I am at Kolkata . where the pujo lies on the heart of the people .. From childhood I have always cherished the Dussehara and as I grow the goddess and the mystics brought by her keep growing on me ...
Now , First of all I wish each and everyone Happy Dussehara .... the festival symbolizes the truth that's quintenssial to India and also appeals to the world . the win of truth over the evil .. the combined strength of gods which gave birth to Shakti symbolizes the power of unity .. power of collective force .. above all this symbolizes the worship of woman power and the empowerment of woman which is the apt solution of most of the problem of the world ..Above all it remind us the greatness ,vastness of Hinduism and the great power that lies with being the best of all ..as it's said with great power comes the great responsibility ..
Let MAA enlightens the world as ever , as always ..
Keep celebrating ...
