Is war necessary ?

October 17, 2008

WAR, (Wrathful Armed Rudity), this is how I would expand it, if possible. The world has seen many wars in its history, and the history continues. While exploring on the reasons for those wars/battles, we can list the following as reasons:
* Acquisition of land
* Revenge
* Retain power
* Retain individual prestige
* Freedom(the least cause of wars)

In ancient days, where humans were in the starting stage of the transition from animals to humans, they could not hide the behaviour(rudity) of animals. So, the easiest way for them to tackle a problem is fighting against their enemies. But, if you believe the transition has occurred, there is no point in still fighting.

With the ‘sixth sense’(if there is really a thing like that), humans must think on their activities. Wars have brought in a great loss in lives, capital, dignity, freedom, etc. ever from its first occurrence. Eventhough, if humans were unable to think on the consequences of wars, he must have atleast learnt from its consequences. But, none of them happened.

Why dont people think that they are not going to take the above said reasons with them after death ? In their lifetime, why dont they be helpful to others, without harming others ? Why dont they use the money spent on wars to others needing them ?

Life is beautiful, but only when someone allows you to live in.

So, promote love and appreciate peaceful way of solving any problems.


Employment Office – public friendly ?

October 15, 2008

I went to Cuddalore Employment Office to register my BE degree. I had some bitter experiences at the working of the officers there. I would like to share here, so that you may find the difficulties, and may not repeat the same at your site.

The first thing I noted was the punctuality of the workers there. As expected, a Government staff may not be punctual at his work. Even the office was opened late. Also, the time the officers took to do their work is worst. As I was seeing them working, they created an impression as such they are dodging and doing their work without sincerity. Because of their poor punctuality, many people far from Cuddalore had to wait without till 3:30pm.

The second thing I noticed was the behaviour of the officers at the public. They are thinking that they are the heads, and without them, the work cannot be done(of course, I accept). But, they are not having even a single drop of the mind set that “they are working for the public”. Those who provided their employment cards for renewal in the morning(around 10:15am) were made to wait till 3:00pm to collect their cards back!

I was forwarded to two officers through the process. A clerk/head-clerk(I am not sure) and the Junior Employment Officer(Special Section).

I would like to say what happened to a fellow in the queue. Unfortunately, he could not renew his registration in time(may be due to many reasons). As he didnt renew, he cannot add his qualifications with his employment card. The clerk found it and said that to that fellow. The fellow asked him what to do next. The harsh reply from the clerk was “mmm… go, eat and sleep”. (It would be exact if I put it in Tamil “mmm… poai saaptuttu thoongu”)

That fellow was ashamed of the incident, as the clerk scolded him publicly. He was really shocked, and shivering. He was helpless, I dont know what happened to him. The point here is that, instead of explaining the process to the unknown, the officers are irritating the public. Atleast there should be an enquiry counter for this purpose. But in this office, the counter was empty with no officer there.

I was patient as usual, and went to the JEO. I was shocked to see her ordering and threatening public, with a hard voice. Everyone will loose their dignity infront of her. She too is the black sheep, not answering or guiding properly to the special persons(handicapped), to whom she was mainly appointed to serve. “Is she really a woman?”, this is what I thought after seeing her behaviour.

I am not here to hurt anyone’s heart, but, I was very much affected by the avamariyaadhai done to the public. There is a chance they might have been in a tense situation. But, the way they approached the public must be opposed.

This is the case of most of the Government offices in Tamil Nadu. The officers and politicians even after knowing this, are not taking necessary actions. The public must also be blamed for this. They should be bold enough to argue for their rights. Even if someone raises his voice, the officers will use their powers and prevent that person from fulfilling his need. This has been a problem since olden days.

My request to the staffs at public offices is “please know the value of your posts and work accordingly, dont take them as you were working for money alone”.

Newton’s Third Law(N3L)

October 8, 2008

Newton made many discoveries in the field of science.
Out of all the most stunning and astonishing discovery of all time is the “Newton’s third law”.
It states
“For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”.
This statement not only applies for science, It also works in real life and It is applicable to all.For every action we are doing (it may be good or bad), We’ll definitely face the reaction one day. If one does a good thing, he’ll get good things back. and vice versa.so, one should always keep in mind to do good things to get it back.

Some examples in my real life:
* If i make a person feel better when he is in a confused state, someone will do the same when i feel worse.
* I got a sum of amount(say Rs. X) from a relief fund (that was supposed to be given for the affected people in our locality). But i was not affected, but they gave me that sum. After a week i sent a courier to my relative which has the same amount in number (Rs. X),The courier was received by them, but they found nothing in it. Here the N3L plays a vital role, because the sum of amount(Rs.X) was not entitled to me, so it went away.

Moral: Each and every thing in life can be interpreted with N3L.
So always do good things, u’ll always reap good things.
Note: u can also share ur real life things. (which u believe its because of N3L)


Happy Birthday Gandhiji :)

October 2, 2008

Gandhi was a man of great energy, who changed the fate of India, helping her to live freely. Many people say many things about Gandhiji. He was named “Mahatma”, and “The Father of our Nation”, for his great contribution to Indian freedom struggle, which riped its fruit on August, 15, 1947. I even heard others arguing against him, still there are some. I still believe that the reason for our independence was mainly due to his behaviour and works. Even if he died before 1947, we might have got indepence. But this would have been achieved only by following his ways.

There is extra-ordinary internal energy in every individual. An individual dies when he cannot make use of his energy. The reason for the great leaders, scientists, etc. to become so is that they somehow made use of their energy. How did Gandhi utilized those energies ? It is because of his daily prayers. Through those prayers, he got enormous concentration, which increased the energy level in him. This is the same energy which makes everyone to become successful in their life. We can make better use of this energy when we involve in our works with a greater concentration.

Besides approaching him as a freedom fighter, it would be the best to portray him as a good social reformer. I am refering his principles and his faith in God. His way of life, ‘Truth’ and ‘Ahimsa’, words that must be followed by every individual living human in this world.

Have you ever thought why are you not true to others ? I bet you will not find a good reason. Why should not everyone speak ‘truth’, and be true to others. Being untrue will definitely lead you to the debris. You are spoiling others in the society, no doubt, you are spoiling yourselves too. Slowly, you are wasting your energy in doing harm to others.

Ahimsa, not only means that no one should harm others. Instead, everyone should love the people living in their society. Just, have a try to love others, be patient and dont get angry with others. It is really not possible if you dont know the real meaning of truth and ahimsa. You need a great level of patience to attain them.

Gandhi, who was the follower of truth and ahimsa in his life, has done social reforms too by changing the minds of many people who lived with them. He is still a reformer, maturing the minds of many people (like me :) . It was the lack of these qualities which led many societies in the world, even from the known or unknown civilizations, to their bad destinations. Do you want to repeat the same mistake again ?

So, try to follow these principles:

- Always speak truth, at any occasion/situation.

- Try to be patient at any situation.

- Atleast dont disgrace those who are true.

Delhikku raja-naalum gandhi solla thattaadhae… )
