I saw a video recently; it was a suicide of a man. A man is standing on a train compartment and many people are watching and talking to him and suddenly the man stood up and touched the electrified line just above the compartment....some smoke and sparks...He fells down!!! This was what I saw. I would like to slap on the face of the cameraman of that video.. It is heart breaking to watch a video like this. What I have to say is that, this is the best example of how we spoil ourselves. I believe that everyone in this world is alive now is just because of there is a reason for "HOPE" in this world. No one is satisfied with what they received in their life. They expect more, they try more and many of us will reach to success...But, what happens to the others who believe that they faced failure in their life? They just vanish like this, leaving no remark of what they were or why they do like this!
I remember a case of a 12 year girl who killed herself because of a 'great reason'! Her mother didn't allow her to watch television. It was her reason for suicide!! What is happening to us? What does this mean? In my life also, I've thought about a suicide in several situation. But, I survived!!! Do you want to know how? I can reveal the secret now! I was afraid of death!! This saved me from death. And I'm proud to say that I am a coward to take decision for a suicide. In my opinion, being afraid of something like this cannot be a mistake. As I said before the easiest way is to find hope for everything. Trust yourself, if you can't, trust god. He will save you! Everything is just a belief which saved us.
One thing is certain; I will not kill myself for any reason in my life. It is not just a strong decision; it is a realization of a truth that time will certainly reduce hardness of any feelings! In my school days I was afraid of punishments from my teachers but, today every punishment I got is a reason for a laugh. Many things in my life which was considered as a great job or risk is not a serious matter now. The things I'm doing very seriously now will be an easy or risk-less job in the future. I will laugh at myself in many other situations. All I need to do is to find a reason for my survival and thus to find time for cooling down difficult situations.
I do not know what is going on the minds of those who suicide. But, I do not want to hear that many are dying because of some stupid reasons. I believe that a good word at the right time can save our life. But, even our judiciary is also against those who suicides. Suicide cannot be a mistake but, suicidal attempt is a mistake in our judiciary! I do not know why this is so! At a time which needs maximum support from everyone, our judiciary is trying to file a case for suicidal attempt. Indirectly, this may block someone who thinks of a comeback from suicide. But, I'm sure about one thing, a law like this will not help anyone to avoid thinking about a suicide! It is just like punishing a man for trying to punish himself!
I saw a newspaper report about the farmers in Kerala. Kerala government has written off all the loans of the people who killed themselves because of their poor financial conditions due to fall in prices of various crops they cultivated! But, if the government can write off all the loans before they were dead, they can save lives of many farmers. This looks like it is just like giving poison for suicide through ration shops! If a farmer think that 'if I suicide now, I can save my family atleast’. This is just a motivation for more suicides!
Anyway, we are living in a world of responsibilities, affections, love etc...None of these are owned by a single person. Everybody is somebody for many others. Everybody have roles in many others. A single man can be a son to his parents, a husband to his wife, a father to his children, at least a friend of someone. These are our responsibilities of being a social animal. A departure of a man from his life can affect many people like this. If you destroy something which belongs to someone else, it is your responsibility to rectify their loss. So, to all who think about a suicide in this world, I have a small question to ask... " Do you really own yourself to destroy yourself?"

The Extend of Honesty
I saw a program in television recently. Its name was “the moments of truth”, I believe. It is a program which astonished me in some specific aspects. Simply, it is a program like “Kaun Banega Krorepathi” and all you want to do in this program is to tell the truth. You don’t need to answer any difficult puzzles; you don’t need to think, all you need to do is to tell the truth and for that you are offered millions of dollars. I thought this is the perfect opportunity to make easy money in this world. But, when I reconsidered, I found that it is very difficult to be honest. Everything has its own secrecy and in some cases we cannot be a man of truth because, some truths can affect others. And I think I may not be able to support the concept of being honest by losing something which is really important.
I heard a lot that Karna is the best character in Mahabharatha. His quality was his honesty and his willingness to help in any situation. In many aspects he was a perfect man. He has done a great number of truthful things. And he is the only character without faults.
But, everybody likes to be like Karna, he is a hero. But, what he gained by his perfect life is disgusting. We can’t make him a role model because we usually do not consider failures for our future victory. Being an honest man is nearly impossible. If someone does, he may get isolated from others, which is not a good thing to us.
Everybody is selfish. I think, selfishness is not a mistake! It is just how someone loves himself or his own belongings. Normally, we cannot blame anyone for being selfish because in this world it is this selfishness which helps everyone’s survival, where “survival of the fittest” is the nearest possible policy.
I do not have an intention to make anyone believe that they are wrong and I am right, instead I am trying to convince that everybody is right. No one can be honest in everything, in some condition we have to make sure that our honesty will not affect others. I’ve been a man who used to tell lies in perfectly wrong situation and I used to tell lies without reasons or healthy impacts. But, now I am trying to become a liar of healthy situations!
A few months before there was a mimicry program in TV, where two political leaders are having a competition for “the best liar”. One politician tells a long lie story while the second leader tells a small sentence “I am an honest man in my entire life” and the second politician won the prize! It was just a comedy skit, but, it has a great message. I enjoyed that story very well but, I would like to tell one thing that, Beware of those who look too honest because they may be really good in hiding their opposite part!

The idiotic exhibitions!
I believe that "we are what we exhibit!". I believe so, because I felt that exhibition is responsible for the views about a person in the society. Every leaders, every workers, every student and everyone who believes that they have gained something in life is created because of the exhibition they have done. Everyone do different things and get noticed in their respective manner and they are qualified to believe what they are.! This is exhibition! They are the result of what they exhibit. But, now I am not thinking about this exhibitions. I really wanted to tell something about an another section of exhibitions.
How many brave people are there in our country? If we just make a rough calculation, the number will not be a small one. I am sure..! Because we are really brave. I have seen many people who do stunts on bikes in public roads. I have seen some of my college students used to do stunts on their bikes..I just asked one of them why they are doing like this. What if you fail and result in an accident? The guy just told me that he does this just because of his bravery and confidence, and I believe that the purpose is to get noticed in public! I just thought about my condition. If I am doing(Normally, I will not) like this what will be my thoughts. Really, I should have a tendency to do the same as him, But, for what reason? I do not know.! I would like to do it safer, because if I fails the whole scene changes. If I can do a stunt I may see some eyes of excitement but, if I can't the same eyes will give me sympathy and laughter to themselves. You may say that I should do this only if I am good enough to do the stunt. But what is the extend of the condition good enough? It is my own belief! But, Nothing in this world works as you expect and I believe that we should not make a decision to go for stupidities like this.
The usual practice of our society is to copy what is new and imported. Imported goods have a great market in our society and also the funniest thing is that even civilizations are imported. A person in a cold country needs more clothing! So, the countries like Britain invented suits with ties to survive in the cold. And this dress code is a trade mark for executives in India. So, some Indians are still sweating inside this dress even in the comparative cold season in India. Do we need to do this? I think we need not import such a practice over here. It is stupidity! We do have our own dresses which is good for our climate. We should have promoted that thing instead.
I cannot understand what is the secret behind our fashion concept! I can narrate some latest fashion. Let's start with hair, probably the hair will look like someone who have touched an 11KV electric line with bare hands(Every single hair will point upward). Shirts commonly have misplaced stitches and four letter words which cannot be told publicly. Trousers will be worn and will have colours of mud everywhere.In short we look like a villain. And I really do not like to say about fashion of girls. Because it is too interesting! I wonder why we got such a fashion. Why do we like something which is a whole mess of neatness. I think fashion reflects our likes because we are in a condition where we likes villains more than heroes. We like to live in liberty and under our own wish. Unfortunately, liberty lacks discipline. And this fashion shows us the lack of discipline or tendencies to become undisciplined. But I really cannot understand why we follow such a way of non sense while we used to have an option of disciplined and neat ways.
I felt in several situations that we used to follow what others are doing even though it is wrong. But, I think a small push is required to change the whole concept. I may have the tendency to ride bike faster, I may have the tendency to wear stupid clothes, I may be a man with imported civilizations but, I believe the reason why I am so is that 'everyone used to do the same, then why don't I?'. I used to express what I do not do and what I feel which should not be in the way that is! I knew that if I feel something is wrong I need not watch others to take my decision. I am ready for a change if the world is changing because I reached here just because of the world's change. This is my belief and I strongly believe that these are idiotic and I just cannot find a good reason to be like this!But, I am doing the same.!

The art of being stupid!!
A few days before one of my friend told me that he will be glad if he get a chance on a stage to say "I am a stupid!". When we heard this most of us laughed at him, yes, me too..But, when I think now, I realized that I may say the same dialogue if I get a chance. Because, it is a universal truth, I am a stupid. I have no right to laugh at him for a reason that he was too honest! And I believe that no one should! Because no one can be a genius in every subject.
Being a genius is very easy! If you have some knowledge about some specific subjects you can be a genius in a crowd which do not have any knowledge about the same.But, for how long? There will be subjects which will make you a stupid because of the lack of knowledge. I think it will be great if you accept the truth that you are a stupid than you reveal it by your acts. In practical, you may try to make you do something you cannot and that will be a great laughing memory for all others. So, accepting you as a fool is a better!
Stupidity is a common factor in all men. Everyone must have done some stupidity at some time. There may be some incidences which was done so seriously in the past which is remembered as a laughing stock at present. There may be some incidences which made others laugh at you. For example : A few years before one of my friend told me about a sherlock holmes story. I never read that book..But the incident he told have some importance in this subject. I do not even remember what Sherlock holmes' partner's name was. I am really sorry about that. Any way the incident was simple Sherlock holmes' partner asked sherlock holmes whether earth is revolving around the sun or the sun is revolving around the earth? Sherlock holmes says that he do not know. And he just added it is not his subject to know.!! As a character Sherlock holmes was a world famous dictactive and he do not know just the basic things!!! Can you call him a stupid just because of this? Certainly you cannot!! As he just said it was out of his subject!! And he is really a genius in some another subjects!!
Let me tell you something about a comedian! Being a comedian or a joker is very difficult task. I think a good comedian must be a mix of stupid and genius! Because, a good comedian should be a genius who acts like a stupid.! All he have to do is to entertain the crowd in front of him with some laughter. I can see some highly skilled comedians in cinema field who are really serious in nature in the public. Laughter can be created by many different ways but, the best and easy way which now exists is to make the audience watch a stupid. Stupidity is becoming a tool for laughter.
I think a stupid is a very lucky guy( am I lucky?).A stupid do not have any limitations. He can do anything and no one will question because he is a stupid. He do not have to worry about anything. Really I like the concept of Sreenivasan in malayalam film. He always acts like a stupid and he will not give any of the others a chance to make him a stupid as if he have made it himself!!!
Just one more thing. If you are laughing at anyone! Just realize one thing. 'You are a fool. And you are laughing just because you have found a better one to compete with you!!!'

The Unity And Existence
Unity and existence are two factors which are very close to each other. They are interdependent factors. Existence is the cause of Unity. Recently, our media got a chance to appreciate our act of being united in the case of Mumbai attack. But, now I am thinking about something different. What was the reason for that terrible attack from the terrorists? As my college principal once said "they were misguided youth!". Yes, I support the same fact, they were misguided!
When we are making a comment on something we should think about ourselves.!And I believe the misguidance they have got is not worthy of misguidance we are receiving now. When we think about ourselves there are many factors which indicates that we are misguided by our own environment. The media have to describe our unity when the attacks were there! What if we are not under attack? We may not even know about this unity! I think that the unity we have is always in certain areas like Cricket and some terror attacks now! We feel proud if Sachin gets a century in cricket and in the other hand if something is wrong in any part of India, we might say "Oh! they are people of 'x' state! They are always like this!". Proud because we got a winner and we blame if we get a looser! I cannot understand what this means! Thus, this is a fall of our unity.
When we were under British rule they tried to invent a method of "Divide and Rule"! We successfully opposed and won the battle against the method of Divided rule. But, what happened next? We successfully implemented the same technique in our country by our own. We do lack our unity and this may effect our existence. We have many people who cheat our own people and I cannot find any difference between the concepts of terrorist and our own people. We have many war affairs between different states in our own country.
The lack of unity can be seen in a very vast areas. There are many reason for this conditions. We are divided into many religions like Hindu, Muslim, christian etc. Even if you say I do not have any religion they are also an another category. There is another division of political view, who 'practically' creates a small war and kill each other. There are another division with celebrities or I can say being a fan of celebrities are also dangerous. There may be a fight of total foolishness waiting for you. If you can still believe that you are not a part of any of these still you are divided in the name of gender. You can have special considerations depending up on the gender. So, you cannot hide from this kind of divisions.
Depending upon the above divisions we attack each other and kill each other. What is the concept behind determining a terrorist? I cannot understand. We are holding comfortably with many people who have terrorism in their mind. Yes, what is the difference between terrorist and those who kill the people in the name of religion and politics? They do the same thing! But the only difference is that terrorist may be working for another country while these all other 'terrorists' works for India. I do not want to stand in any side. But, I just want to inject some thoughts in your mind. The condition in India feels like we are making holes in our own ships and abusing the sea for the shipwreck. These are all because of our lack of unity.
Existence is the basic need of everyone. But like I always says everyone including me is talking about existence and eating as we wish. I know that the concept which I have said just now is not practical in India. If possible it will be the next problem maker. I imagine if we have an enemy outside from earth! As in many Hollywood movies, any enemy who fight against the whole human race! If such a condition exists we will know the value of our unity, because, we will forget about the love towards our nation! instead we will give rise to a love towards our world. The basic which I want to say is that it will be great if we bring a concept of loving the whole world instead of a single nation. It can make us stronger, wiser, richer and much more stable towards existence. There should not be a discrimination among national boundaries and religions! Then, we can dream about a "perfect world"! Unfortunately I believe that there is nothing in this world which is perfect in any aspects! The word perfect points that "if it was a perfect one it may look like this"! Moreover, we are still humans not gods or robots to think and act perfectly!
faithfully,
Raghu
