Pritam Sarda

In the wake of growing divide in our society in India which is many times based on the Chaturvarna and Caste based systems, I thought of writing my understanding which I have got over the years looking around me in society and one thing for sure is this word Chaturvarna is misunderstood by many, misrepresented by many. Many youths are misguided by many literatures, NGOs and so called humanity based groups and finally politicians who gain power in this fight. Few out of their own ignorance have used it to prove their superiority, few got injustice and sometimes it lands up in few funny situations as well. Lets try to see what is it… CHATURVARNA is Sanskrit word – Chatur means four and Varna means ‘Groups’, means four groups. There were four groups of people Brahmins (Teachers), Kshatriya (Fighters), Vaishya (Traders) and Sudra (Producers), mind it, it is Sudra and not Kshudra (meaning insignificant) or Shudra. Kshudra or Shudra is the distortion done by few people deliberately. First l...

Demon Hiranyaksha and its relevance in current times - PART I

Our ancestors were very clever and wise. They knew that over the years people’s dialect, culture, languages will change. Apart from writing things in scriptures, they presented most of things through pictures and symbols as well so that future generations will be able to understand through these. One such picture is of Hiranyaksha and Varah Avtaar of Lord Vishnu. General story goes like this - Hiranyaksha was an Asura who captured the entire earth and took earth to bottom of ocean. Mother earth cried for help to lord Vishnu and then Lord Visnu took avatar of Varah (Boar) and killed the demon. Later on Varah took the earth in his tusks and brought it up and placed back at its original position. If we just go through it hastily then it may look like little impossible but If we really look deeper into this, there appears to be great message which is relevant now in current circumstances. Questions arise who is Asura? How come man was born with head of Boar and carried the earth on his tus...

FAULTLINES CREATED IN ORDER TO DESTROY NATIONS…

World has seen destruction of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria & many South African nations. Destruction happened by internal wars but nobody thinks how it happened and who provided such advanced weapons. In most of these nations people were divided into two groups Shias & Sunnis. Whenever there is split/divide in identity of people in nation then that is Fault-line. This fault line was darkened by politicians/media who were dancing to the tunes of few giant global oil/minerals/weapons producers. Shias were imbibed that Sunnis are their enemy and Sunnis were imbibed that Shias are doing injustice to them. Soon when this hatred reached peak, latest weapons were given in the hands of one group and who without using their brains attacked other group in their own country and acted against their own brothers. Huge damage was done for the nation. On top of that so called world’s superpowers used to drop bombs (in the pretext of acting against perpetrators) and kill civilia...

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL…DO NOT COMMIT SUICIDE…TURN YOURS & OTHERS LIFE INTO HEAVEN… Nature has bestowed us with its biggest gift and that is human body. We hardly notice ourselves and our body and we can hardly see what all we are capable of easily doing which other species can’t even think of. Biggest thing we can do is Smile. Which other species can smile? None. You take dog, cat, tiger, lion, donkeys, pig, birds, fish etc. None of them can smile. If they are happy, maximum they can do is jump or shake their tail and that’s it. Smile is such a big asset but these days people rarely use it. On small things this precious gift disappears, sad and long faces are common sights. Another gift is, we can speak. Which other species can speak like us? None. But what do we do with this power given by nature. Few people use it for creating rifts, few use it for lying, few use it for taunting others, few are using slangs all the time and few of course doing good use of it. Just loo...

OUR BRAIN IS SLAVE OF REPETITION

Nature has given us this beautiful gift - our physical body. Many of us rarely know or observe its functions and how it works. I am sure if we are asked where is liver or where is kidney in our body and what are their functions then many of us will not be able to tell. We are not taught about our body during our education period and we remain unaware of what is good or what is bad for our body. I am not doctor or medical student but I thought whatever I have learned through observation, experience, I shall put it down. It is said that one of the wonders of this nature is our brain and if we carefully observe then it is very true. One property of our brain is it becomes slave of activities that we repeat. It gets used to it and then our body functions automatically like that without any efforts. If we remember our childhood when we were learning numbers or alphabets what our teachers/parents were getting done from us, we were asked to write number ‘1’ 10 times or 100 times or move our p...

DEMON MAHISHASURA..REAL MEANING, GODDESS DURGA (MOTHER GODDESS / MOTHER NATURE) AND ITS CURRENT RELEVANCE…FREE YOURSELF OF THIS DEMON…

As I have mentioned in my first blog, our ancestors were very wise and they knew that over the years people’s dialect, culture, languages will change. Apart from writing things in scriptures, they presented most of things through pictures and symbols as well so that future generations will be able to understand through these. One such picture & story is of Demon Mahishasura and Goddess Durga. Lets see how it is relevant in current times. General story goes like this, once upon a time there was a demon called ‘Mahishasura’. He had done severe penance/austerities and out of that he got a boon from Lord Shiva (Shiva is called as Destructor. He is destructor of all the bad thoughts in out head Ex – Thoughts of attacking someone, stealing something etc come in our head. He resides in our body as well. He resides in head and all bad thoughts are destroyed there). Boon was- no man, animal or god will be able to kill him. After getting this boon he thought himself as invincible and started...

DON’T CONVERT PEOPLE YET SPREAD YOUR RELIGION!

In today’s world, we have so many religions, cultures, languages, music, costumes, food etc. Instead of seeing the beauty in this diversity and celebrating it, people are busy in converting people into their religion (for whatever reason), environment of distrust growing and people end up seeing only bad thing in others and end up separating from each other. Whenever we speak of religions it becomes very sensitive issue and many times people boast that only my way is the way, only my religion is true, only my religion’s followers will get heaven, my religion’s followers are highest etc. In this whole process main crux of our faith is lost, ego sets in and then whole list of issues arise including riots and terrorism. Lets look at it in simple terms our religions and what we can take from all in simple way. I am not any religious head but fortunate enough to be born in India and have visited many religious places, I felt let me put my feelings & thoughts in simple way. There could b...

REALITY OF PAKISTAN’S POLITICIANS, ISI…ROOT OF TERRORISM…WHY INDIA MUST TAKE OVER PAKISTAN’S ARMY & ISI

We all know how terrorism has spread across the world and it is affecting so many countries and so many people but rarely we try to go deeper into it and try to analyze from where these youth are joining this terrorism, from where do they get weapons and training and what really they want to achieve and most importantly for whom. Deception is biggest tool used in this period of time and it is biggest enemy of common people. I would say root of terrorism lies in the partition of India which was earlier known as BHARAT. We all know before giving independence to India, British divided this country into two parts one is called as India and another Pakistan. It looks like two agents from both sides perfectly helped them in executing this split. Such kind of thing cannot be achieved unless and until you have support from within. People were shown dream of separate Islamic state to which these politicians enforced on people and later on what happened is history. Part of BHARAT was broken, our...

WHAT PARENTS WANT…DON’T END UP WITH YOUR HANDS FULL OF….

In last 15 years or so, I have seen many people leaving our country for higher studies, jobs. Many of them went saying they will return in couple of years but till now never returned…At one point of time I was also trying for higher studies but today when I think back I thank god that I performed average in those exams and later on decided not to pursue the same.. I personally know many of them. Infact many have such wonderful parents that whenever I visit their homes, they shower their love as if I am their son as well. If they are taking their parents where they are living then it may be fine with them else parents keep on waiting for them, persuading them to come back and many times have tears in their eyes & they keep on receiving below answers.. For my career I need to be there. What will happen to it if I come back… I will return in another 2 years This country is in mess and nothing can happen Education is much better there etc My job there is very comfortable, I c...

CAPITALISTS & COMMUNIST HAVE HAND IN HAND

Today we see that capitalists people from US and communist from China appear to be fighting with each other…Are they really fighting or are they doing act of fight to show the world that they are different and enemy of each other. In reality, it appears that both have hand in hand and their activities complement each other. One need to see that how world has been flooded by ‘Made in China’. To begin with US, almost everything in US comes from China. How come such capitalist nation allowed such flooding of products from China. After US, it was Europe, Australia and now India. What is that thing China really doing? China is flooding the markets of nations with its cheap products and destroying all the small and medium enterprises which give employment to millions and millions of people. Once these enterprises are destroyed then big industrial houses (Capitalists) can set up their retail chains, factories in those nations and grab huge money as these small & medium...
