Diversity in Unity......

Well its a bit confusing i know.....but the world and everybody all our textbooks and teachings tell us that India is unified in its diversity.... well after 27 years in India do i really believe it well most probably not.... well do you???? yes we are still one country but what a country where everybody is divided on religion, caste and language....... well i guess it is two sides of a coin which we cannot avoid...... well if i am confusing you thats exactly what i started out to do... :) oh well let me explain now i really believe if there is unity in diversity there would be no problem what language we spoke or what religion and what caste we are from for the things that everybody requires for example education(oh yeah what caste!!!!) , jobs, everything.........
Even marriage would any of the parents agree for a marriage from another caste or religion ....oh my god they will bring down the roof quite literally (should watch a few indian movies even though they are a bit stretched on the topic they potray a part of what happens if you say you are in love with a person different to us doesnt matter wether it is religion or caste or language or anything else the answer is always a NO...) ........
So let me say are we divided on everything from the language we talk to the caste and religion we follow, that would be a big yes......
But what everybody believes is that if there was mixing of the castes and religion where would our ethnicity be wont the diversity go away and we would all probably maybe not today but one day be all Indians and no diversity ( If you ask me that would be the best place to be in where the divide within a country and all the fights would reduce).....
but whether it is for the text books or for the deep rooted feelings the diversity and deep hearted belief in that is what we follow.....
Are we striving for unity or are we going to be diversified is upto us...... but as far as I see it we are going in the wrong direction I just hope we dont one day wake up and find our country not as one country anymore but as many countries...... :(
BACK

Wolf in a Sheeps Clothing-Reservation

Hey people sorry I am writing after such a long time, actually I was on a mission to save the world from terrorists….naaaaaaaaaaah I was just too darn lazy to write it.

Anyways today I decided to write about a stale but important topic, about reservations. You all are probably no not again. But here goes nothing and besides if you are dumb enough to read my second blog after the devastation my first one caused…(I hear few people forgot how to think after that; ). Anyways such minor set backs are not going to stop me from being who I am. Come on people I am who I am and if u do want to accept such a basic fact that people don’t change just like that they just learn to fake it, then you have to be from a different planet.

Now coming to the more important topic on hand the reservations. Do I support reservations, Of Course I do. For those of you who have their mouths wide open, shut it before a fly gets in, I will get into the essence of the matter in a little while. I support reservations its not something you can change. A lot of people opposing the reservations keep on saying the same thing why? Why? Even after 50 years of independence, even for a few minutes if they stopped and thought about the centuries of suffering the lower caste people suffered was that right!!!! Was it their fault they were born in the lower caste so had to stay away from the village wells, temples, etc. Do they actually think that people who have endured such hardship and suffering can get over all of that in just 50 years so now you see the analogy. (Even if you don’t I don’t care) People immediately will say why do we have to suffer for what happened centuries ago, but the truth of the matter is how many of them will marry a lower caste person, most of the marriages in India are arranged, though it is slowly changing, but how many of the parents i.e. even modern ones the doctors and engineers would dare select a lower caste person as their child’s fiancée. Don’t we all still have that they are lower than us in the back of our head, and then what is wrong if the people backward get a small push forward.

Now coming to the specific reservation for OBC’s for the higher education, do I support them obviously no. Now everybody must be wondering this fellow has obviously left his brain at home when writing this, actually maybe I did but I don’t remember so I might as well complete this blog brain at home or in the head. Now what are our higher education institutes the IIMs and all have one thing in common you should have the basic degree for them and these are the people who are going to see the big bucks. Now one thing is clear people get jobs for their degrees and like life adding on your resume helps you get some extra money and all that crap. So effectively if you help the down trodden people get into such institutes will get them the big bucks and come up in their life, right, this is where my dear friends our ministers have gone wrong. Let me explain.

For people who have atleast visited a public school in India you know the standard of education there, which is really pathetic. Most of India whether of the forward or backward caste get their education here, my whole topic is based on this single most important point that when the clay is being formed it can change and take the most exquisite of shapes or just some meaningless nonsense and after that it is just the hardening part which is left just like a buildings foundation. What reservations in the higher education does is just bang on the useless clay and try to pass them of as high quality pots, I am not saying that all people who come from such schools are useless but a 50% reservation is absolute suicide, do they actually think they can fool the companies coming for recruitment.

What I would like to see (not like it is going to happen or anything), but just hypothetically is a down to top approach for developing the downtrodden. Reservations by the caste should be there but should be introduced slowly at the same time improving our primary education system so that the future managers and specialties are truly that and not just wolves in sheep’s clothing because of a sudden reservation policy. Most of you must have noticed I changed lower castes to downtrodden half way along the way, because I believe the reservation for the people who are truly downtrodden (economically or otherwise) because I do not want to punish the forward castes for the way they were born.

P.S.: For the people saying it works out much more costly to do the down-up approach and want the easier way out, JOIN POLITICS (he he)

THE BECKONING


Hi everybody this is my first post for my blog. If you are reading this u must really like me, or I would have politely invited you to read me my blog (invites go something like, read my blog or else…). Well anyways if you are crazy and dumb enough to be conned by me to read this crap, I am really lucky to have friends like you. Actually if anybody has met me they know I am hardly very serious about anything come on people, u cant blame God or your neighbour for all the evil things that befall you. This blog as you can all expect will be as controversial as the author that is yours truly. Hope I get a lot of reviews and comments.

I have always believed we are all here on this minuscule excuse of a planet for a PURPOSE. What is your purpose or what is mine that is the question I have been wondering for a long time. Maybe mine is selling this crazy idea that has been bugging me for a long time to all the sane people who visit my blog and share my insanity with them. But how do I know what my purpose is. who will tell me?
Anybody telling me that if you meditate you will find the inner being, your soul is the key , should be shot in the head with a bazooka, yes you did read that part right, (most of you did not expect such extreme violence here , or did you?). Come on people think more than half the people who do that meditating stuff either land up as GURU (all connection to any movie or political figure existing or in the future will come into being is purely incidental) , with either nothing to eat or living on herbs and other odd things that I would not dare lift up ,eating it is a distant nightmare, or they land up on a program on the television (a device I strongly think was placed on earth by some aliens to keep us all in perpetual trance so we will not find out their evil sinister plans-whatever that is????) , or they land up at a lunatic asylum somewhere real far away , where they think they should have just finished studying and joined the software industry like every second Indian I meet. While I seriously doubt that my purpose or yours is anyway connected to the above two cases, although the asylum does have its fringe benefits.

When will I find my PURPOSE , I seriously do not know or whether I will find it at all. That is I will just die an old man in the software industry of course , where else in front of my Pentium computer with a whole bunch of crazy gadgets I would not know how to use, that facilitates the crashing of my computer every ten minutes.

If you people are wondering about the title you must have guessed it is my purpose that beckons me,
Finding it is another story…..
