AHIMSA PARAMO DHARMA??




Believe me, we need this today more than ever before, "non-violence is the topmost duty ". On this day, 2nd October, Gandhi Jayanti , we need to introspect and ask ourselves, does this duty really supersedes all other? Do we really care??



Tempers tend to flare up at the slightest provocation. And I am sure this isn't news to people out there. We see it happening all the time, on the roads, in our neighbourhood, in our offices. We have become an impatient human race. The devil inside is tightening the screws and taking a hold on our sanity.



The morning papers echoes nothing but violent behaviour plenty. Trust me, the state today is beyond repair and it's rather ironical when President Obama says that US has its roots in the India of Mahatma Gandhi. Where is that India?? Today's India is not what Bapu had dreamt off.



I am nobody. I am just a self proclaimed pundit. You may or may not agree with my opinions. In the end, if we really wish to get back the India which Gandhi ji had thought off, we will have to find the Mahatma within each one of us...............THE QUESTION IS, DO WE REALLY WANT TO ? Think about it !!
