Bomb Blast or Blast the Bomb?

We are alert! After the blasts! And after every Blast! – say the authorities

We had information about the blasts but no information about the location! – Home minister – Sushil Kumar Shinde

Hyderabad Bomb blasts:

• The home ministry confirmed that they had information about the bomb blasts two days ago.
• Honorable Home minister Shri Sushil Kumar Shinde says that they had information about the blasts but no details about the location where the bombs would be planted!!!!- as if trying to say had the terrorists revealed where they would plant the bomb, it would have been easier for the security agencies to locate and disconnect the bomb… ! WTF… Wednesday Thursday Friday!
• The police authorities say we are alert... Was he sleeping while the bombs were planted. In spite of having information about the blasts! Were they sleeping over the bomb or with some bomb. Again WTF---Wednesday Thursday Friday!
• Seems our ministers like to analyze the blast as an aftermath and with folded hands pray for the dead and shed crocodile tears for their families. Some even invite filmmakers to take a feel of the situation so that it can be used in their upcoming movie.
• No terrorist organization has yet confirmed their involvement in the blasts. In that case is this blast to divert public attention from the Rs. 3500/- crores helicopter deal fraud!
• Why is it that every time a major scam is uncovered such drastic incidents happen and then the scams takes a back seat-Telgi, Kanda, 2G, 3G, Fodder, Helicopter and so on…or is it that our capable government likes to pray for the dead innocent public while spending millions on terrorists like Kasab and Afzal Guru hiring the best and most expensive advocates to prepare a case against those terrorists for their barbaric acts of killing hundreds of innocent people openly.
• Sardarji it is our money you spend on these maniacs!
• Wake up Sardarji you are Son of Sardar “kuch toh Asar dikaiye” … or every citizen will doubt if at all- Singh is King…????

Letter from a mother to her teenager son

Home is where we learn things. Home is where we experience things. Home is where we get ready to face the world, in whichever shape form or style it is presented to us. But have we ever thought about how do we create a better world for our children. Yes we all have to agree to the fact that whatever is happening around us is because of us. We are responsible for everything good and bad, nice and dirty, clean and filthy.

The recent incidents in Delhi must have triggered a revolution in our society but is that needed or we need to revolutionize the way we think. Mere strikes or demolishing public property will not get us the result rather it will put the burden on us. What we need is to change the way we think, change the way we perceive. I am not saying that all that we decide and do is wrong but what we must do is contemplate before we do after we have decided. Decisions may go wrong but the actions based on those decisions can be corrected. So why not start correcting those actions from home itself. Why not teach our children that women are the source of life, no matter what levels of successful scientific research we might reach a male can never bear a child. It is only the women who have this special gift from God. We pray with bowed head to Durga and Kali to give us the strength and success in life and equally shamelessly abuse the women in our homes. So what are we doing?

Dowry is a menace! I have been hearing this since I was a kid. So what, there are still many so called educated families who still want to sell their son for a hefty amount. In fact there is a different price tag for a Doctor, Engineer and nowadays a new profession is included - Software engineer!

Is dowry abolished yet? No. I have seen and talked with people who hold some positions of respect in our pseudo society saying that it is okay to ask/demand dowry. In fact I have seen some of my colleagues shamelessly display the dowry items they demanded from the brides parents. I don't blame the parents for putting their son for sale because they themselves have been nurtured and raised with the idea that women are meant for use and only for making others happy. That the men worship her inside the temples only to molest her outside. Does it mean that this chauvinist society begs for forgiveness from the mother/sister/daughter/wife in the temple so that he can abuse her later. Isn't it like getting an anticipatory bail before committing a crime.

It is time we have to initiate the change, and because the men are always busy I request the mothers to take an additional task on them to cure the society from this perverted sick mentality which treats women as nothing more than mere objects of desire.

I have this letter from a mother to her teenager son wherein she just advises him just before he chooses his life journey.

To be ‘loving’ is to be ‘loveable’ – it is possible to be both strong and tender at the same time.

1. Your masculine energy has been given to you to protect others and support them – don’t ever be a bully, but do defend yourself.
2. Play sport, be fit, eat well and live a wholesome life – you don’t yet know but you have only been given ‘one’ body – don’t abuse it, you don’t get to trade it in when you wear it out.
3. You set the tone in intimate relationships. Support and nurture the feminine energy around you. Like Yin and Yang, relationships need the strength of the masculine and the softness of the feminine.
4. Allow yourself to trust in all relationships – don’t fear being hurt or hold yourself back because of this fear. Fully express yourself; be the man you know yourself to be, and if it does not work out it's okay.... it is better to be yourself and be loved for that, than hide in a relationship and ignore your true self.
5. Don’t fear being alone. 'Like' yourself, know in your heart you are a good man – people are attracted to those who have self-belief.
See the light side of everything – don’t take yourself too seriously. Life is a long, hard road if you are not having fun along the way. Set goals and celebrate your successes.
6. Find what you have been put on the planet to do, how you can make a difference to others – Ask your self daily "how will I leave the planet a better place than when I arrived?"
7. Treat every woman kindly – and treat her equally. Women can do everything you can do – they just might do it differently.

Simply remember that life is a journey – every day counts and...be grateful for what you have.

“...You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life.”

What kind of a society we live in?

Our society worships goddess Durga & Kali begging for strength and at the same treat the women in our homes as weak, frail individuals who lack brains and cannot be treated as human beings. Our mothers, sisters, daughters, wives are not allowed to think for themselves rather are forced to do things that the men want. Isn’t this a society full of hypocrites worshipping Durga in the temple and abusing her in our homes, on the streets and whenever wherever possible.

We get angry and punish an artist for the wrong portrayal of goddess Saraswati on canvas. But we allow our politicians and law keepers to take their own sweet time to punish those sick perverted rapists and everybody ill-treating our Durga, Kali, Laxmi and Saraswati. Is this the society we want to live?
