The Indian Tragedy-2009 World Cup..DHONI-THE REASON????

Cricket can be called as India;s national game,rather than hockey..Indian's are known to be the biggest fans of cricket and even worships their cricket stars...In this post am not going to do a postmortem regarding India's earlier exit in this world cup.But something to the one's who just blames MSD in this affair..It's a captain's failure not to won a cup,even it is world cup or any other cup.
But being blamed only for the failures is not a good culture.I have seen some blogs blaming MSD for the failures.Hey mads....Indian cricket never dominated the world cricket right from the start except some wins which we Indian's consider as the greatest...MSD was able 2 win a World Cup for India,which even Dravid,Sachin or Ganguly couldn't.
The world recognised his talent and was named as the captain of many world teams this year.So MSD can't be judged as a bad captain.Failures are there in life.I saw some people balming him that he got this glory due to sheer luck..Hey man..please watch the second test in NZ in which Indians were closing to a defeat in his absence.Veeru was the captain that time.At that time,many praised MSD.
It's not luck that makes MSD successful..but his decisions at times..It may sometimes bring success and sometimes bring failures like the one we saw in the match against England in which Jadeja was made to come early.If that happened to be a success,many would say that it was his luck that favoured.Anyways Indians including me are like this,just to blame others if one appears to have success...
Some have the opinion that seniors played a role in his victories.Hey man ..these seniors played under many great captains and played many good knocks.But wasn't able to make that knocks into dream like victories against NZ , Aus etc.
I accept that India didn't play to their potential in this world cup.But the world wouldn't even with a single failure.India still has a chance to be right at the top of the world.But our boys have to fight hard.That's all what is needed.India under MSD could crate wonders in the future.

They are the only one's capable in India to do the same winning wonders.So as a cricket fan,I couldn't blame Dhoni only to be reason for the failure..... JAI HO!!!!!! INDIA

HiNdUtVa-an outdated word?????


In the last Parliament elections,we heard a lot about the term Hindutva,as Bharatha Janatha Party (BJP) proposed Hindutva as their main agenda in their election campaigns.The term even caught the eye of media and people and even the elections as their agenda was widely rejected by the people of India,making their conditions even worse after elections and the internal conflicts in their party came out to the public.
Most of the people considered Hindutva as something to do with the  religion Hinduism and many of the followers of the other religions rejected the dogma.
Actually many people don't have an idea of what Hindutva actually means??
  Let's take a peep into this subject...

The term Hindutva was actually coined by Veer Sawarkar n the early days of 19th century.At that time,he took the chance to describe Hidutva as a feeling to express one's loyalty to Mother Nation India.The one's who consider India as their Motherland ,Fatherland and Holyand can be considered as a follower of Hindutva,even if he is a HIndu,Muslim,Sikh,BUddhist or a Parsi.Though there are similarities between Hindutva and Hinduism,both are not the same.Actually,both of these dogmas don't have any central force to guide like priests or nabi's...They became a culture in its passage and flourished in the heart's of millions..

 Hinduism is a culture and the culture marks the style of living of people of India.Unlike the Western culture,it offers a traditional way of living,making it tough to observe if one is moving away from the essence of this culture.It is a culture that took the essence of other cultures and develop itself into a form with loads of followers.It was due to this characteristic that the foreigners were widely accepted in our country,as this culture teaches us to welcome all.

 Even though Hinduism have many religious books,unlike Islam or Christianity or any religion ,it do not take any particular book as the Holy book.These books actually teaches us how to live a life to attain the ultimate Moksha.

 The Hindutva too preaches us the same principles.This culture gave equal status for all religions.No matter whether one is from the religion of Hinduism,Islam,Christianity or any other.The followers can be called as the follower of Hindutva or a Hindu.There were intrusions into this culture at times,during the reign of Muslim Emperors and invasion from West.But this culture was able to maintain its principles and made most of those rulers to follow it like the greats of Akbar,the BAADSHAH.So it gained a wide interest in the life of people of many countries.The followers spread this culture by following a moral way of living,taking into  consideration to revive the minds of people all over the world.

   LOKASAMASTHA SUKHINO BHAVANTHU is what it preaches.

 In the modern history of India,the term gained importance when parties like BJP,VHP(Vishva HIndu Parishad),RSS,Bajrang Dal,Sriram Sena which takes extremists stand with the term Hindutva.The sense bursted out with the demolition of Baber-e-Masjid in Ayodhya,where it is believed to be built destroying the Ram temple bby the Muslim rulers in the early years.The ones called KARSEVAKS demolished the mosque which lead to loads of riots in many parts of India.But this extremist movement made the followers of hHIndu religion to rise to the occassion thinking that BJP was the ultimate saviour for them to maintain the lives of Hindus as a lot of homicidal activities were happening in various parts of Kashmir Valley,which made Kashmiri Pundits to run away from heir place.
  This feeling of secureness made BJP to be an undisputed political power in India.The elections reflected this in areas where Hindus felt unsecure about their life and this made BJP to rule the nation and AB Vajpayee to lead a government to complete its period without Congress support.
BJP and its cultural sects even demanded for a Uniform Civil Code (USC) to the citizens.USC  means to have a common law for the whole people of India.BUt the others,mainly Muslims rejected this proposal as it would bring an end to many of their rituals like TALAQ in which a woman would be divorced by saying Talaq 3 times.These all created wide tensions all over India.Moreover ,the conversion of people by Christian sects made them more angry.So this also created more tensions.Money from West heavily invested in these activities.So the tension became worse.

 But when BJP came to power,they showed only a mild dose of Hindutva .In the elections,they promised the buiilding of Ram Temple in Ayodhya
But they failed to do it.This made the extremists more angry.At that time even L K Advani showed some tolerance to Jinnah.It also created tensions among the followers.
These all resulted in 2004 elections and BJP was made to sit in the opposition.BUt before getting out of the power,they were able to show the world that India has the ability to become a super power.The Congress Government which followed thereafter was ale to live upto the expectations of people of India,taking the development activities which BJP had started.

 This reflected in 2009 elections.People voted for the development agenda of Congress than the Hindutva.so BJP lost in the polls.But it can't be considered as a huge defeat,even the numbers say so.Because.the modern world always votes for development.But the security system in India was affected at the time of Congress ruling in the means of serial blasts and 26/11 incidents in Mumbai.

 The controversial remarks of Varun Gandhi also made the people of other religions to defeat BJP,though he won in Peelibeth by a huge margin.Narendra Mdiji,another pioneer of Hindutva was able to escape due to the development agendas he followed in Gujarat ,sinking Hindutva into its developments.

 So these all shows that,now the people wants more development.So the ruling of a country should not be done by giving intolerance to other people following various religions.But,by an agenda which gives security to the people of India for their property and lives to all sects of people.BJP failed to convince it to the people.Mainly,internal upsets ruined them.
So its time now for BJP ,not only to rely on Hindutva agenda but providing the people some faith in the party leaving all internal conflicts.Otherwise,the people would ignore them seriously.

So in all,Hindutva is a way of living which enlightened the world rather than intolerance to other religions..Hindutva should be implied by all parties for the bright future of India,showing examples to the world taking its own cultural aspects.In  all,Hindutva is not a religion:its a culture...

    LOKA SAMASTHA SUKHINO BHAVANTHU......................

THe RAcist WOrld!!!!






For the last few days we were watching in all the media about the racist attacks occurred in Australia against the Indian students..A variety of brutal,uncivilised practices occurred there..But most of us were not excited especially the Indians, as most of them knows the Aussies players in cricket who are famous for their sledging activities...These problems occur when a group of people don't have a better culture..especially a place like Australia inhibited by the ran away British men.

These sorts of l racist ways occurs in India also...But Indians actually won't hear to such things and supports them...But yet problems are in India...Think ,a guy happens to be white and his friend appears to be dark toned,then its sure that once or while he had a chance of being teased for the dark guys skin tone.Think..how this thing affects the dark toned one?

But the people of the West,considers the so called "WHITE PEOPLE" in India also as black.Actually in India ,the people have a tendency to consider light toned persons as some one with high qualities even if he doesn't deserve to be.And also a dark toned one as useless even he is bright by his brain..In India actually brains don't count..only the skin tone of a person.It is visible in elections also in which the fair looking person getting more votes so as with the actors..even if they are dark toned,their posters appears to be light toned.

So this is a phenomenon occurring not only in the West,but also in Third World countries..Actually I am not supporting the racists attacks in Australia.The thing is that apart from Hitler's Aryan supremacy policy which prevailed before,there still exists some modern HITLERS.


Indian student community accounts for about 95,000 in Australia,which is second only to China.Last year Australian government got bulk of share of revenue from Indian students which is approximately 15.5 billion $.Even though the PM of Australia Kevin Rudd condemns such activities of racism,the cruel activities continued against Indians.

The incidents caught the eye of Indian media after Indian students from India stabbed with screwdrivers on May 9.One of the students Shravan Kumar became coma stage and doctors are still trying to save his life.


There were a number of attacks to follow commonly known by the term "Curry Bashing",in which Indian students were attacked.There may be number of reasons for this attack.But the Australian media tried to support their people and hates them to be called as racists.But do u remember this incident in which our Bhajji was accused of making racists remarks against Symonds??And at that time how Indian media responded??They were all against Bhajji and later when there were evidences that he called him as "Maa KI" and not "Monkey' and he was sent court free...

   While I am writing this post,I heard another case of an Indian student treated badly by the Ozzie Dracula.The FISA(Federation of Indian Students in Australia) came with huge protests against these attacks holding the boards such as "Education or hospitalisation" and all.I happened to see them in CNN-IBN...It's a real shameful thing in this modern world where the boundaries are shattered by technology and other stuffs.
The Indian government should take necessary measures to stop these types of cruel activities in co-operation with that of Australia.If these actions still continues,they should have a little guts to call stop relations with Australia as now doing with Pakistan.
 These youngsters are going abroad to get high education standards which our country lacks in UG level and all.So the Government of India should keep this in mind and try to start a new re-evaluated educational system to cope up with the modern day's standards....Or else.....we would be in the back stand again as that happened after the Parliament attack and Mumbai attacks....a real hell of a thing which would cause the pride of Indians badly.....

MY WAYS 2



                                         


Alone in the darkness of life...
So steamy without any happiness....
Can't see a cuckoo bird with it's joy...
So hard to breath in the cloudy mesh...



Have a world that blows away from me.....
Have a word that swallows me the whole.....
Sadness and grief,all over the woods.....
And death-a feet away....

I am in an altitude,touching the sky....
Having an attitude,below the sea..
Standing all alone at the top....
With a stormy feel..


Do this what the world meant for me?
Steering down the madness of horizon..
Jumping over
the screaming fox...
I don't know where am I.....

Expectations..they do lots of wonders.....
Happiness...creating those wonders...
Ever since am what I do....
Me,irritated with sticky gums.......

Can't see a ray of hope...
All
I could see is lonelines...
And it carves me a lot.....
And am
nauseating....


Still lives as what it is called human....
Can't see any inhuman in me...
Striving for the rise....
And I would call it as horizon of my life......

"Aghora"-The reinvention of life






   Aghoras or aghori...hmmm..pretty confused with this word?Well,it's an unknown mysterious link in the vast and diverse  Indian culture.It represents a group of people who believes themselves to be the selected representatives of Lord Shiva,the powerful destructive God in Hindu mythology.
  Well,I came to know this after watching a wonderful,highly explosive movie named "NAAN KADAVUL" in which the director Bala of Pithamahan fame showed his extra ordinary talent as a director and also some blistering acting from Arya and Pooja.  
  Though the movie was not able to gain a mass audience attention,this movie proved as an excellent creation from an Indian director.The movie tried to show a group of people who considers themselves as the representative of god and hence considers themselves as God ,as the movie title suggests.
Well am not gonna make a review about the movie.After watching the movie I was quite impressed with the life of Aghoris as they provides a mysterious dark light into their life.
Aghoris are believed to be  a group from Hindu religion who was washed out from the mainstream of life.They are considered to be cannibals due to their rituals which even considers eating dead bodies as their part of life.In North India,among the rural people they are supposed to be the ones with high powers and considers to provide heal to the pains of people,as they are the selected ones to do so due to the command of God.They are even considered as the ones who could provide death,when a person considers it as a blessing in his/her life.

Their extreme practices are believed to be included cannibalism,powdering themselves with the ashes of dead bodies,taking ganjas,possessing Nirvana and many others which the common people considers to be culture less.They are believed to be eating human dead bodies and drinks in human skulls.They believe that every creation of the Lord is perfect and nothing is made to be useless.So they considers corpses as a normal thing and even meditates on it

They base their life on two principles,
1)Shiva is the ultimate power
2)Shiva is responsible for everything,even every thought.
 
They wants everything to be the perfect and which stands away from it deny God's will.Aghoris go in search of the powers and they gain it by all means and they again go in search for the next bigger power than the gained one.
 So they believe that by gaining more and more powers they can avoid the punarjanma(rebirth) in this life. An aghori believes in getting into total darkness by all means and then getting into light or self realizing.It is a different approach but they believe it to be effective.They also are known for their rituals like shava samskara to invoke the mother smashan tara
Tara like Kaali is one of the nine mahavidays and once invoked can bless the Aghori with supernatural powers.

They follows the life of the ultimate :"SHIVA",who bears his name in every form of life making them to attain the ultimate part of life called MOKSHA or as we call as death.
The Aghori ascetic is himself a symbol of the God Shiva. He goes naked or wears the shroud of a corpse, he covers himself in the ashes of the cremation ground. The corpse upon which he meditates is a symbol of his own body and the corpse devouring ritual is a symbol of the transcendence of his lower self and a realisation of the greater, all pervading self.

They are believed to have done secret tantric sex with menstruating lady in which the male is considers as Shiva and the lady as Shakthi.But they dont have any sex inhibition.They mediates at night and smears their body with ashes of corpse.
The Aghoris are one of the principal Indian traditions and the most extreme and fascinating form of the Tantra. Dattatreya, a divinity that includes the Trimurti Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, are considered to be the founder of this school.Among the people, the word Aghori always arouses a mixture between respect and suspect; anyway they also have many devotees among the various religion present in India.Together with Aghoris,we could find people of different religions.

The death's theme, so recurrent among the Aghoris, constantly remembers us our mortality but it is also a challenge to transcend the duality between life and death. Breaking every mental scheme, going over every taboo makes aware of the illusion of this world and becomes a path toward the liberation (moksha), the realization of the itself with the absolute one. Also the conventional distinction Hindu among pure and impure for the Aghoris is an illusion.

The site proposes to spread and to let know the Aghori culture too often misunderstood and stigmatized as one dark "sect". 

Well,don't think that I happened to be with these group of people.In fact I am living in a society which consists of people who are eating humans alive.So they are always considered as the uncultured fellows of Indian culture.

Well,the one important Aghori known to the world outside is a man called Kina Ram who is believed to have lived for 150 years and the followers of this sect considers him as the avathara of Shiva.
These people are trying to find the reality of life in an extremely different way and they believes that their main aim of life is to provide moksha to the sinners(the common people).

  So they believe that the way one live his life makes him to considered eligible to be attained Moksha and paves path for punarjanma in a more blessed life.While the sinners to reborn as the lowest ranking in the life forms and thus giving it chances to attain moksha.

Well,their life and principles are quite difficult for us to understand and while studying about them for a week,I was really confused with my life.Oh! really these group of people are really mysterious.

 I can just say this after having a study about the devotees of Shiva 
"SIVAYA NAMAH OHM"

At TImes...Y I worry????


At times I worry about many things...even the things that all of us feels to be much simple...When seeing a kid begging in order to have some pieces of bread or a small tea...We know that our India is an independent,democratic piece of land which provides its citizens to have equal rights in every field of life including education,job,worship and all...but think my friend....Do all around us enjoy all the rights...and even loads of them don't have right to vote even aged above 18...Is this cruel?????
     Yes...ofcourse......politicians may blame upon the social practices in India...But dear politicians...are you trying your fullest of abilities to get rid of this drastic situations???NO.....none of you can say that you are trying your fullest.....And with us....the citizens of INDIA always persuading for rights without performing our duties...How many of you voted in the past general elections...hmmm...some have to keep their heads down on this situation...
 Well I think...I am going away from my topic.....Sorry...it came as am also a citizen who is made to watch these situations without any response..Actually our society muted us....

  Let's go back to the social problem BEGGING.....many types of begging are there as I experienced from the happenings around me...Some of the lads lost their eyes...hands and any of their organs and made to beg..I remember of a man,who always sits near KSRTC bus stand with uncountable swellings on his body...sorry dear...I don't know the name of that disease.....but when I saw him..I had a call from inside...a call of pain..seeing a man alone..whom all look upon him as someone hatred.....I decided to give him some cash to him on the beginning of every month as soon as I get my stipend....but what happened was that after 2 months....I couldn't find him...I don't know where he went.....I was very sad by then

 Actually ,the young ones who came to us for begging also deserves to get  good education,food ,shelter and clothes...but what to do...??All the one's responsible for taking care of them...I mean the authorities are going for the vote banks including certain communities and groups of people...
As these people don't have any voting rights ,the politicians are avoiding them..At least try to do something for the ones who are in the streets...with the taxes from the commons....instead of modifying your lifestyles by building bungalows and running in Benz....please.....

  It's the call of the day...You may blame me that why shouldn't I do this....Yes,I could do this..But I am having my own limitations due to my family and all...But I will try to do whatever I can....But these so called politicians...Hey You people don't need any educational qualification to be MLA /MP..at the most a printed smile and a long tongue to betray the fellow people...So please be kind enough to these people...Get a living for them...protect them...please work in co-ordination with the associations working for mankind...

 And think like this...God blessed my children,sisters and parents not to be in such a situation...So I should be thankful to God..And I should show my thanks in such ways.....

  So my friends...please try to spend the price of a beer or the money spend in restaurant for these people...Let them have a meal for a day.....


                                                 My Ways


Sometimes I seems walking,
Over the bows that colors the sky.
Sometimes I dreams of a day 
That breaks the shadows of death.

Up the mountains,I see a narrow valley of blood,
Flowing through the meadows.
A fountain of blood ,deep in my throat,
That awakes me from a sweet dream
A dream of vultures and hyenas.
Small rays of hope,flowers my life
To the fullest of its own kind.
Pieces of enlightenment,makes me mad
That are  more to tolerate my empty spaces!!!!

Needles so sharp that,
They prickled my toes and senses.

Wake me to the dreams of reality,
That shatters the path of hopelessness.
This is what I consider for me,
To the precious moments of my life.

Somethings, sometimes arouse me,
And fetches me the brightest of stones.
To throw at the enlightened world,
That makes me an instrument of the failures.

Down to the toes,I feel the rythm,
The ever youthness of its footsteps.
Ringing like an alarm,
To make me believe that all around are Hooligans.....

The one's trying to betray,
The filaments of self-respect,
Is this the time for a change?
A time for ever glazing dew drops?
That sticks on the leaf tips.

So,this the time my dear,
To make the heaven opened for me...
Wait and wait...to make me believe,
That I am on the altitude of attitude....
